After the day ended An went back home to find a surprise waiting for her.. what's happening here!, she wondered but nevertheless she entered. there were things scattered around the area, new machines, carpet etc... she collided with the shifters who were taking the things and shifting, she entered.
"put this here, I told you to watch out!! those things are expensive, yes! here in the corner, ok, right there," she could hear the voice of her beloved aunty busy ordering the people and instructing them.
"ooh my dear baby is here come here,so how do see it!! is it of your liking? oh! my God you can not imagine how I had to convince shengsheng to allow me do some innovation, the house was boring." An looked at her aunty who continued to ramble on and on without stopping, she looked around, indeed the house had been changed and it looked excellent which was so impressive, but wait she remebered her aunty saying something about her mom and turned abruptly to look at her. "
"Aunty is mom here!?."An asked confused.
"ohh, my mouth she wanted to surprise you so she she did not inform you, she is in the kitchen." Zhou Wencheng said still checking if everything was in the right place. At the time Xin shianmeng came from the kitchen with an apron.
"you are here darling won't you give me a hug, didn't you miss me?"Xin shianmeng said.
"mom when did you come you didn't even tell me I could have come early."An hugged her mom complaining.
"it was a surprise dear."
"did you finish everything there, I don't want it to effect our lives mom, I want you to enjoy your life."
"don't worry everything is set even for the store the first supply is coming tomorrow so just relax." Xin shianmeng assured her daughter.
"ok." "eeeeehe!!! am also here will you consider a group hug", they all laughed and giggled, they cleaned the house together after ate chatted as the night approached Zhou Wencheng bid goodbye and went home.
When Zhou Wencheng reached home everything seemed quite different and she was wondering, at the time the butler came to welcome her.
"welcome back madam." the butler greeted her respective.
"why the gloomy atmosphere where is the master." asked zhou Wencheng.
"He is in the study room." answered the bultler .
"ok see you." and she went upstairs to see her husband, as she was reaching near the study she could hear his voice on the phone arguing with the person on the other side, she knocked lightly on the door and entered and sat on the nearby chair and waited for him to finish.
"ok make sure you investigate keenly I don't want any mistake done, ok!" Li Huan on the phone finished and hunged up, came forward and gave a light kiss to his wife and sat on the chair in front of the table.
"What's wrong darling you look stressed."Zhou Wencheng asked worriedly .
"It's the company this evening we have lost our great deal and this has been going on for sometime, but I thought it wasn't a problem because they were small projects, but today it was quite a big one, someone is sabotaging my company." Li Huan explained stressfully.
"Did you offend anyone?" asked zhou Wencheng.
"as far as I remember I played fairly but this, I don't know who is behind it."Li Huan answered .
"ok, stop stressing we are going to search for them but please calm down let us go to rest ok!."Zhou Wencheng managed to coerce her husband to sleep, but even her she was worried but not to be triffled with, that night after making sure that her husband was asleep, she went to check on her daughter and found her sound asleep adjusted the blanket gave her a night kiss then went out, she called her men to investigate on the issue and went to sleep.
Li Huan had his own company from his work ,even though he didn't work for his family but he had a good relationship with them and was quite successful, where as his second big brother was the one who headed the Li cooperation.
In the morning everyone got ready to start a day, An was getting ready for school, when her mom called.
"Ananh what about your lunch I am going to cook you something ok! have a nice day dear."said Xin Shianmeng.
"ok mom I understand have a good day."replied An who was already on the door going outside.
At school that morning everyone in the last grade were busy studying when Xi Long approached An who was explaining for Li Xiaosheng.
"Hello,An may I ask you for a favour." Xi Long asked humbly, which shocked Li Xiaosheng because she knew him as someone who didn't like to be obedient.
"yes what is it!?"An wondered what was up with him.
"let me tell you if you don't have anything to do just leave us alone we are busy" Li Xiaosheng snapped at him because she knew how disturbing he was.
"no that's not it! am serious this time, An can you please solve for me this question."Xi Long asked.
"Let me see it." An got the paper and looked at the question."oooh! this question isn't complicated you can manage it, let me solve it for you, then she stood up went to the board got a marker and started solving, in the class they were only few students not less than 5 so Xi Long and Li Xiaosheng shifted to the front sits so as to follow very well , when the other two remaining saw that she was going to explain the complicated question which had failed all of them they also came forward to pay attention .An started by giving them the easy formula to use and rules, after she started applying them in no time the class had become full, An didn't even notice because she was engrossed in explaining.
"An what about that formula when are we going to use it?" one student asked.
"ok, this will be used here" An continued explaining, at the time even the elites had entered not even anyone was paying attention everybody's concertration was on the the board.
"So when you have finished doing this you will have to continue in this way..."when An was explaining she was cut in between.
"what if you use integrals at that part?."Li shunyuan asked in a low voice.
"well, also that method is correct but it is time consuming but a person who is quick can manage it." An answered.
"mmmh". While in the dinning room the duty teacher was panicking.
"where are the candidates of the first class l am not seeing them in the room." asked the teacher.
"they are still in class." one student answered.
"but it's past class time, what are they still doing in class?" he wondered. in class things were getting excited, now everyone was asking questions and An tried to answer, at the time Mr kuan happened to pass by and was astonished by what he saw.
"that's a good and easy method you used on that question." Mr kuan commented as he entered the class and looked around the class. "ok, you can go for lunch the time has gone by so, you better hurry up and go to eat." Mr kuan advised them. After one by one got out of the class but one person was about explode with jealous, who was non other than Wang Mei, she was feeling that An would become threat because it was the first time they heard Li Shunyuan had cooperated with others, he didn't even burt an eye when she was the one presenting, yet he had even commented a few times which irked her.
When they reached the dinning everyone sat in their place after getting their food, as for An was still coming because she had to wash her hands , when she passed by a table which sat on a group of boys and girls who were the minions of Wang Mei they looked at her , whispered something and one girl stood up with a cup of hot coffee, she made her self trip and wanted to spill the hot coffee on the shirt of An, but they couldn't believe what happened next, An tilted herself to the side and slightly extended her leg which tripped the latter, she fell and spilled the coffee on her self, all the people wondered what had happened but the distance between them was apart, when one observed they could see that she had tripped by herself, An had did everything in lightening speed, that not anyone had seen what happened except for one person and another who automatically knew without with out even looking.
"you're friend is quite aggressive!" commented Li Shunyuan commented with amusement. "well, they are the ones who asked for it." Li Xiaosheng answered proudly. As for An she continued her way without paying attention to the one still groaning on the ground, when she reached the table, Li Xiaosheng gave her lunch which was already packed and sent by her mother, An looked at her with a face full of questions .
Li Xiaosheng looked at her friend and could only shake her head "did you have to be so hard on her." An could only smile "she asked for it, she is lucky I have shown mercy on her." Li Xiaosheng could only laugh while others were just observing with shock on their faces because it was hard to believe that she was the one who did it.
On the other table the girl was busy being coerced to stop crying.
"but I told you to tripp her, not yourself." the leader said with anger. "but I swear I had" "don't even start, we saw it she didn't even touch you." another said.
"ok stop it, we should find away to give hera warning,she has to stop making our goddess angry." stated another while others nodded. If Li Xiaosheng could hear them, she could only pity them because they didn't know who they were messing with.
In the Li cooperation headquaters, Li shianming was getting a report with an unhappy face. "you have not yet found them? am I paying you to be incompetent!, find them or else find another group." Li Shiaming gave the last warning to his secretary, he was really angered by who ever was it that was messing with his brother's company, they had tried to search for him but always coming to a dead end,the person was careful not to leave any trace. He really wanted the know the person who was messing with a Li.
In the villa Zhou Wencheng was on phone with an ugly face. "and why is he not able to be traced!? you mean to tell me that the whole team I hired is unable to be trace him,!? is that what you are trying to tell me!?." zhou Wencheng asked with anger.
"we are sorry ma'am but we will continue to look for him." the person on the other end apologized nervously.
"you better be" she hung up the phone and heard a knock on the door and allowed the person to enter.
" Madam you have a letter." the butler informed passing her the letter and was dismissed. When he reached out, he happened to hear the maids speaking among them selves, "the master and madam are stressed these days I hope it all goes well", they spoke walking away, the butler himself was also worried but what could he do, at the time Li Huan had entered coming from work with a tired face, he just went straight to his room where he found his wife waiting for him.
"Darling you look awful! have a nice bath and let's talk ok." Zhou Wencheng said while putting the coat and briefcase in their place.
"thank you dear."Li Huan said giving her a light hug from behind, he was exhausted to the core, the company was taking a toll on him, after he had taken a shower he went to have dinner and sat near his wife to chat a little telling her the situation.
"darling I have got an invitation to attend an auction and gallery exhibition and we should attend." Zhou Wencheng informed his husband.
"but dear, I don't have time to attend those occasions please!" Li Huan said.
"Trust me you have to go, you need it. please!!!" Zhou Wencheng pleaded with her husband after sometime he agreed and they went to rest for the that day. Li Xiaosheng had slept over at An's place so they didn't go to check on her.
