As Ayame arrive home, she immediately change her work outfit. Her maid came into her room after she's done ironing her dress for the party. She had no choice but to go, even though she have so much to do. She wouln't want to be with her family if it weren't urgent.
"Miss, the car is ready." Her butler says.
After she nodded at the butler she got herself dress. Her hair was made into a bun plait, her skin looks as soft as a baby skin, her eyes that hold not much emotion and looks at everything indifferently were the most intriguing part of her face. And lastly, a little bit of touching on her already perfect face.
She went down the stairs. As she take one step at a time, her moves was elegant as if she had learn etiquette since she was 5, she also have this regal composure that would leave everyone at her knees.
After she arrive at her lobby condominium, she enter the limousine and the car started and headed toward their destination.
As she look out the window, she reminisce about her childhood. How she was always compared to other kids, even after she got a good grade her parents still expect her to be like other kids. How she would always get in trouble for no reason, while her not-so-biological brother would get in trouble if he IS really making a mistake. She doesn't really want to come back to that place, but her father has insisted that she come home cause they haven't seen her in many years. She could only complied and then be reminded by her stupid secretary about the apparently forgotten party.. thinking about what happen this evening made her grumbled and put on an upset face.
While she's reminiscing, she realize that they're just outside the mansion. After her driver show her pass, they went inside the mansion that's located in the innermost of the mountain.
After arriving at the entrance of the mansion and stopped near the red carpet, Ayame step out of the car. She wore a dark blue mermaid dress, that shows her glass-hour body and the shoulders that is draped by the cape of the dress.. As she alight from her car, many eyes were looking at her. Some in admiration, jealousy, awe, etc.
As she walk, she'll careless about the stares that are piercing though her body since she's used to it.. as she got nearer to the place with lots of people. She saw her family talking in the middle of the room chatting and laughing.
After she's able to recognize them she walked straight to her parent... she didn't even greet the people that are greeting her either with polite smiles or handshake or even some of the braver ones who tried to talk to her.
As she came upon her parent, she saw that they finally felt her presence and waved at her with their smiling faces. As she strode toward them she didn't forget to give a polite smile toward them.
"Yayaa, my dear. You've finally arrived.. I told youu to respect our guests that are willing to come here why don't you come a little earlier?" Her mother scolded her with a disapproving look.
"Sorry, mother. I had some to attend some important meeting and files that have been waiting in my office, I'm sorry for my tardiness." Ayame apologized as she bowed to her mother.
"Aigoo.. this kid.. you'll never change will you?? *huft* alright mom will forgive you, but accompany your parent alright." Ayame nodded, and greeted her father with a more formal way. Her father nodded and put his hand to pat my head.
"Now meet Mr. Tang, he's the owner of the hotel that your father has suggested to you.. He also have a son who'll soon replace Mr. Tang's place. He's alsoo singlee dearr why don't you have a chat with them." Her mother urged her, as Ayame couldn't do anything but grant her request.
"Nice to meet you sir, I'm Ayame who'll be collaborating with you with one of my company branch." Ayame extended her hand to show her politeness.
"My, my what a polite kid. Nice to meet you I'm Tang Wei. This is my son Tang Lei. It's a pleasure to see you." He extended his hand to accept her handshake.
"I've heard you're turning 24 this year... lucky for my son he's 26 this year.. I wonder if Ms. Ayame here will take my son as a consideration for one of your suitors." Tang Wei boldly says as he grinned cheekily.
Ayame know he doesn't have a malice intent, but Ayame couldn't help but be annoyed. "I'm sure I'll welcome him, if he wants to get married to me that's fine. Just take consideration for my lovers, since he'll be living with us as well." Yes, even though she's known as a cold person. She have many lover behind her reputation, she just doesn't show or care if it leaks to the public. That's the only way that she'll get her freedom of choice and not be bind by this thing call 'marriage'.
"AHAHAHAHA I see now, this is your notorious humor.. well not that I care, after all we businessperson has a lot of those.. we wouln't mind." Mr. Tang smiled not reaching his eyes.
"Ahhh that's right speak of the devil, that guy is coming back right??" Mr. Tang asked as he realized an important information that he just remembered.
"What do yo-" Ayame words was cut off, when she heard the door being pushed open abruptly and people gasping.
There she saw a man with blonde hair and silver eyes, a point nose and sharp jawlines that made women or men jealous at the sight of him. It seems as if God favored him too much, that this man was sculpted until he was a perfect human being.
Ayame squinted her eyes, curious and confuse as to who that man is.. 'I don't think I've seen or heard his name before.' Ayame wondered if she had seen his face.
As the man was looking over the people as if they were peasants. He look at the Lin couple and smile, he then congratulated them with a box of gifts and said congratulation on their anniversary and may they lived longer.
After he was done with the congratulatory, Ayame was called by her parents to introduce herself to this fine young man.
She's no longer bewitched by his appearance since she had a lot of 'toys' that looked like him.. Yup she just called her loverS, toys. :)
She gracefully walks toward her parents then bowed herself to the gentleman. She use her English, since she didn't know if the man could speak Japanese nor Chinese.
"Hello, my name is Lin Ayame. Welcome to our humble house, I hope you enjoyed the bonquet.. Mr..??"
"The name is Li William Winterson, Miss. Lin. You may call me Willy if you prefer." He gave a genuine smile that tells me that something is about to shake her resolution.
