Empress Of Business World

The banquet is quite lively with a ton of people. Many have come here to suck up to Chen's. And some are here to build up connections. The sounds of laughter, chattering, the clanking of glasses can be heard in the vast courtyard of Chen's ancestral home.

One can see the pure lavishness of the courtyard. The floor is entirely filled with green grasses, making one take another glance. The softness is able to give light tickling under one's foot.

Tables are neatly arranged in orders, leaving the place in the middle open to wander along the long red carpet that was laid to walk on. Since it was night time, the lights arranged for the banquet were infusing with the rays emitting from the moon to make it more enchanting. 

While everyone is busy in their discussions, suddenly they heard the royal band playing the royal drums. That music gave everyone shivers in their body. Everyone's hair stood at their ends. All of them turned their head toward the entrance, from where they can see two people entering.

When old man Chen is entering, many people who are loyal to him proceed to give a deep ninety-degree bow to him. Noticing them, several others followed the suit.

Even though he is old, the aura he carries with him still didn't fade away. His hair is combed back, revealing his spacious forehead. Old man Chen's sharp eyes resembled the eyes of a tiger while it is chasing its prey. His wrinkles simply added much to his scary look. 

His sharp nose, thin lips, the pointing chin, and his total facial features made him seem like he came from a painting. The cold aura surrounding him demanded others to bow him. Even though he is old, his back isn't bending. He seems similar to a king marching towards his throne to ascend.

Behind him, his grandson Chen Mu Sheng is walking with him. He is wearing a black blazer, ornamented with golden floral lapels. It is a jacquard printed blazer.  The shape of his sturdy c.h.e.s.t and abdominal muscles is in clear view. As his long legs were used to take big strides behind his grandfather, he appears similar to a greek god in the eyes of people. Chen Mu sheng hair is jelled back, displaying his fine facial features. His vast forehead unveils his thick eyebrows, the phoenix shaped eyes are curving dangerously, arising trembles from anyone. His sharp pointing nose gave him an even firmer look with the thin jawline. 

Women present there were infatuated with him at first sight. Being the sole president of the groups, Chen Mu Sheng never appeared in any gatherings. Even in many banquets conducted by Chen groups, he showed his face for a few minutes and left. This is the first time that he has attended a banquet from the start.

Many women want to approach him and strike a conversation with him. If they are lucky, they will have a chance of being Mrs.chen. But they are stopped by his murderous icy glare. When they attempt to approach him, they felt like they are going to get killed. If looks can kill, many would have died there.

Chen Mu Sheng leads his grandfather to the stage. From where old man Chen gives his speech to the audience, then he descends from the platform to sit on the main table.

An hour passes by, but he doesn't see the person whom he wanted to see. If that person doesn't appear at all, his attempts for conducting this party will be futile. As he thinks about that, he is frustrated. The air around him turns even colder. People encompassing him can feel the change. They are scared by sensing his mood shift. The people assumed that they did something to displease him, so they excused themselves one by one and left. 

Finally, when Old Man chen though she isn't going to come, he chooses to leave the banquet and rest. But at the last moment, he changed his mind and decides to wait for another few minutes. He then proceeds to stare at the entrance without taking his eyes off.

Eventually, he can see a woman walking in while holding the left arm of a man beside her. The man alongside her is wearing a white chaplain Armani suit. People in the party can sense that his aura is somewhat similar to the old man. His gaze is chilly and menacing but gentle towards the woman near him. Many people exclaimed when they recognized him as the Great San Renji. The woman beside him is none other than his wife Sara.

Businessmen felt lucky to see them here. They resolve to strike a discussion and attempt to gain projects from him.

Both Renji, Sara move forward and greet old man Chen. He is bothered for not seeing Yan Shu.

He peeks from Renji's shoulders to see whether she is behind him or not, but he can't see anyone. He then asks in a heavy tone, "Your daughter didn't come?"

Renji understands this old man's thought. So, he answers even though he wishes to not, "She will be coming but a little late."

"Ohh," he mumbles. Old man Chen is happy to know that. Before the time she arrives, he wants to know more about her. So, he asked many questions about her. But who are Renji and Sara?! 

They love their daughter more than anyone. They both can sense the old man's intentions towards their daughter so, they didn't give him satisfaction by answering his questions. They remain silent or change the topic every time he questions about her. This made him more displeased.

Chen Mu Sheng, who is talking with others, when he sees Renji and Sara, he came towards them and greeted them. After addressing them, he goes beside his grandfather and whispers in his ear to not play any tricks. Old man Chen murmurs at him while clenching his teeth as a response. 

Chen Mu Sheng takes his leave and goes toward his partners to speak.

Later, the old man Chen notices a beautiful woman walking through the red carpet. She is wearing a champagne-colored, long mermaid dress. It is a long sleeve, laced peplum embroidered dress. The upper part of her dress is designed in the shape of a flower.  And it is composed of golden rose threads. Her skirt is plain with no pattern. Every step she takes is elegant and rich. Her hair is tied into a single knot bun.

She has minimal makeup on, making her look pure. Her onyx shaped eyes, thin lashes, and rosy cheeks give her a look akin to an angel who just landed from Heaven.

Men are drooling at her while women are turning green with jealousy because of her beauty. Chen Mu Sheng goes toward her and lends his hand to her. He does this because he decided to show them that this beautiful woman belongs to him.
