The screeching sound of the speaker drew the attention of everyone to the host who was ready to commence the function which was immediately followed by an apology by Cai Shu one of the most popular hosts in the country, she had been able to make a good living off her choice of career, she was a natural. She only acted as a host for the elites.
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen to this beautiful function" she paused and gave a wide smile.
She was an extremely beautiful woman, lots of people would have wanted her for themselves if she wasn't already married.
"The Hongs have proven themselves time and again, they have definitely impacted positively to the economy, and has contributed to the increases GDP of the country. Now I know what y'all are thinking" she said with a slight chuckle
"No I'm not a business person, but I could definitely do some research for the sake of my payment" she added with a hint of sarcasm in her voice which made the crowd laugh, except Wang Bolin he would never laugh in public, not even to save his life.
"Before we get down with today's event let's bring in out little surprise to kick start the show... Now who is ready for some music!!!!"
The cheering crowd had put a huge smile on her face.
"I present to you the country's favorite, the BTH boy band!!!!"
Cheers and screams could be heard from the audience most especially the elite girls who had a thing for any member of the four man boy band.
The stage suddenly went dark followed by the soft sound of the latest soundtrack of the BTH which made the ladies almost pass out from excitement.
Huang Wei was tensed up and she could not help but steal glances at him and sometimes she met with his own eyes.
Her heart was racing so fast and she felt like puking.
"Get it together Wei Wei get it together," she said to herself.
Fen Fen could tell all wasn't well with her friend but she equally knew that this wasn't the time and place for such a discussion.
Ah lam looked round everyone was either busy talking or enjoying the presentation.
"this is the perfect opportunity to spoil things for her" she thought to herself.
She picked up the wine glass from her table and walked straight to the table of the Wangs, she faked a fall and spilled wine on Huang Wei.
"Heyyy watch it, you ruined my dress"
Huang Wei exclaimed
"Oh my Wei Wei I am so sorry I didn't mean to I slipped and fell" she said looking really sincere but Huang Wei knew that sincerity was out of the question for her, she was sure it was on purpose. But what could she do when she had spared no effort to fool everyone.
Huang Wei stood up to go to the restroom to wash up, while Wang Bolin signaled Cheng Ling to accompany her so she could get whatever assistance she needed.
Zhang Fen had wanted to leave along with her but she had unfinished business with Ah Lam.
Huang Wei rushed into the bathroom standing in front of the long mirror.
Her dress was ruined but it was a good thing she was wearing a red dress hence it wasn't to conspicuous, she was glad that with a little towel and water she could clean off the spill.
She touched up her lips a little and walked straight to the door to get out, she twisted the handle repeatedly dragging it but the door was locked.
"Of course, how shameless of her" she said letting out the frustration in her heart. Her step sister was just the devil's daughter.
"Help!! Help!! Somebody... Hello!! Anyone here?"
Soon tears gathered in her eyes, if no one could find her then she was going to remain here... She brought out her cell phone to call Zhang Feb but the network was out. She slid down the door in frustration as she sat on the restroom floor.
"What am I going to do?" she thought of all the negative things that could result from her absence. Not only will the reporters call her a liar for promising an interview, Wang Bolin would think she ran away, had she not been arranged Ina marriage with him she couldn't have cared less but what kind of impression will he have about her if she didn't return.
Cheng Ling sad almost losing his mind looking for her. The waiter Ah Lam arranged had placed an out of bound sticker on the door which made people refrain from touching it.
Cheng Ling was about to give up his search when he noticed the sticker on the door he felt something was off he twisted the door knob which got the already teary eyed Huang Wei on both feet.
"Hey!!! help me please"
