Chereads / Ivory's Secret / Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Third brother left to get my food. I started to roam my eyes around the entire hall. Goodness. Isn't that lady in red is the Young Miss of the Wen Family in Imperial capital? Hmm..what is she doing here? Don't tell me she's also here for the big shot that the old grandpa's around me talking about. If I'm not mistaken she's the female companion of Ning Hao. From the Ning Family in the imperial capital.

Ning family are one of the four dominant family in Imperial Capital.

I heard about the four big families in Imperial capital from eldest brother and fifth brother. Our family is the richest in south city comperable to the big families in the capital. But our assets can't even compare to the biggest and most low key family in Imperial capital. Which is the Lu family. They are the most low key family in the capital. Nobody seen the face of the current head of the Lu family. Even in the gathering, the current head of the Lu family rarely attend. The rumors say that He's ugly that's why he don't like to be seen in public even in magazine. You can't find their news. I heard from fifth brother that there's this news company who tries to write an article about the Lu family and guess what happened? That company got bankrupt over night. The people in the capital is very afraid of the Lu family especially the current head Young  Master Lu. I don't know he's name since I never paid attention to it when my brothers are talking about it but now I feel regret. Tsk.

Third brother came back with a tray in his hand. I smiled and accepted the tray.

"Thanks Third brother."- Ivory said while her eyes litting up. So much food. And it's so delicious. Without caring from the people looking at her, she started to gobble the food.

The people around them can't help to look at Ivory's direction. She's very cute. She looks like a child that found its favorite toy. Her check are bulging because of the food. She's very adorable and look like a hamster. A little bunny.

That's the exact scene that witnessed by Lu Jingyin.

Hmm..so adorable. Who's child is this?

The people can't turn their eyes away from Ivory.

"Be careful. It's hot"- Jared said while cupping the milk.

"Uhmm"- ivory replied.

When ivory felt that a lot of eyes are looking at her, she look up and she got dazed and after, she felt embarrassed.

No. No. My image. It's gone.

She hide from the back of her brother.

What is this people problem? why did they keep staring at me. Waahhhh..  It's really over. My image is gone.

Her eyes started to moistened. She felt like crying.

"It's fine. They are just looking at you because you're so cute. Here drink your milk"- Third young master said and hand the milk to her.

"Really?"- the naive ivory ask.

"Yes, really"- her brother answered.

What a cute little rabbit. Lu Jingyin thought. He chuckled that broke the staring contest of the people.

They turned their heads to the person who chuckled but they got froze when they realized who was it.

Mr. Long welcomed Lu Jingyin and guide him to his table.

"Good evening Mr. Lu. I'm really happy to have you attend my party. "- Long Bichen said while smiling very widely. Not everyone knows that he and Mr. Lu are friends. He's one of Lu Jingyin's circle of friends aside from Ning Hao, Xia juijun and Ming Boyan.

Ming Boyan and Xia juijun are not present in this party. A pity they're in a business trip.

"Second brother"- Ning Hao greeted Lu Jingyin. Only his friends can address him in this way. The rest call him Second young Master Lu.

Even Crystal Wen ,Ning Hao's cousin can only call him as Second young Master. Long Bichen's female companion got acquainted with Crystal Wen. As what the saying goes"birds with the same feather flock together".

Crystal Wen likes Lu Jingyin very much that's why he pester her cousin to bring her in this party. This is her last hope. This night she wants to sleep with Mr. Lu. She want to be the young madam of the  Lu's.

She's very mad when Ivory got Lu Jingyin's attention earlier.

When Lu jingyin got seated, Ning Hao started to talk. He found His second brother looking at the girl in Mr Tanaka's table.

"Second brother that lady in Mr Tanaka's table is the precious youngest sister of the Zhao family. That man beside him is the Third young Master of the Zhao's and also all the people in their family dotes on that lady so much. I heard them call her little Precious. She's already 18 years old but she looks like 12 or 13. ----"

"How did you know her family so much?"- before Ning Hao could continue. Lu jingyin intercepted.

"Eh...almost all the people in the capital knows. Their family is the richest in South city. Comperable to the three dominant families in Imperial Capital. And also all her brothers are very scary especially the eldest. The second young master in their Family is Called Zach the highly reputable Surgeon  in the country rumored to be able to snatched a life back from hell. In short can bring the dead back to life. Even the President is very polite whenever they encounter anyone from the Zhao family. "- Ning Hao said while looking like a gossip monger. While listening to Ning Hao talking  about Ivory. Crystal is very mad at her cousin's stupidity. She really like to bang her cousin's head to the wall to wake his up. Lu Jingyin is in deep thought and decided to investigate the Zhao family.

Everyone in the capital is very afraid of him. No one even dares to approach him.

Even his friends are afraid of him. The three dominant families in the imperial capital when joint forces can't even defeat the Lu family.

Back to ivory's table.

After drinking her milk she started to eat the desert and gobble the grapes in her tray. She likes grapes very much.

Her brother paid attention to her. When he feel that it's enough and Ivory is full, he stop giving her food and hand her the water.

The party has finally ended at 11. A lot of business man had a smile on their faces for they sealed a deal. Some are gloomy but the rest are happy. They really are happy, their decision in coming here is worth it. Since it's already late Jared book a hotel room for them. He told the guards to bring Ivory to her room to rest for he is still busy talking to Mr. Kang.

It's around 12 when they sealed the deal. He checks Ivory on her room before he intered his room and called his eldest brother. After the call he fall asleep. He is really exhausted.

Ivory is sleeping soundly when she  heard the door opened. She did not mind it. She thought it was just her brother checking her.

"Third Brother"- she mumbled softly.

The man who got inside froze for a moment before he continue to walk towards the bed.
