"Old Fu," Yang Ling called his butler while in the car. "Deliver the invitations to them," he said calmly. "Yes, young master," Old Fu replied.
Countless prominent families in the city received these invitations. Each invitation was made from the finest paper, embossed with Yang Ling's unique emblem, exuding an aura of nobility. These invitations were like a golden signboard, symbolizing supreme honor and status.
The families who received the invitations were all excited. Yang Ling's status in the urban capital was at its peak, and his birthday party naturally became one of the most important events in the social circle. Every family hoped to get closer to Yang Ling at this birthday party and even establish deep cooperation.
"I must attend Yang Ling's birthday party in person," a patriarch of a prominent family said to his subordinates, his tone firm and unquestionable.
"Indeed, this is a great opportunity to expand our network," another business magnate said excitedly. "We must prepare the best gift."
These invited families and business partners knew that this was not just a birthday party but also an opportunity to showcase themselves and build relationships. They began to prepare meticulously to present their best selves at the event.
In a luxurious villa, a stunningly beautiful woman was focused on handling her documents. Her name was Liu Wan, the CEO of a top company in the city and a leader in the business world. Liu Wan had an incredible figure and a seductive face, with a small beauty mark under her left fox-like eye, adding to her alluring charm. Her voice was sweet and tantalizing, like honey, captivating anyone who heard it.
"Knock, knock, knock," came the sound at the door. "Come in," Liu Wan said. Her assistant entered and placed a golden invitation on Liu Wan's desk.
Liu Wan picked up the invitation that glittered with gold. Seeing the unique emblem on the invitation, she couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
"Yang Ling's birthday party, and I'm invited?" Liu Wan smiled lightly, a feeling of indescribable excitement rising within her.
As a business elite, Liu Wan understood Yang Ling's importance. He was a person with endless business opportunities, and establishing a connection with him would be a significant boost to her career. Her family also encouraged her to attend the birthday party, urging her to deepen her understanding with Yang Ling and explore potential cooperation.
"Yang Ling…" Liu Wan murmured his name softly, feeling a surge of emotion. She knew this birthday party was an excellent opportunity to interact with Yang Ling and showcase herself. She resolved to attend the event in her most beautiful form, ensuring that Yang Ling would take notice of her.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz…" Liu Wan's phone rang.
"Dad, what's up?"
Her father's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Wan'er, did you receive his invitation?"
"Yes, I did," Liu Wan said, looking at the invitation in her hand. "I will go."
"That's good. Wan'er, we have a cooperation project here. See if you can secure this project with him at the right time."
"Dad, it's his birthday party. Talking about business at the party might make him unhappy." Liu Wan frowned for a moment but quickly relaxed.
"Ah, there's no choice. No rush, no rush. Just ensure that you have an opportunity to discuss it later. For now, just make a good impression."
"I was going to do that anyway, Dad," Liu Wan replied.
"One more thing."
"Hmm?"
"Your grandfather wants you to bring Chen Fan as well. He insists on it."
Chen Fan? Liu Wan recalled the name. A few months ago, her grandfather had brought a young man named Chen Fan to their home, praising his extraordinary qualities and encouraging Liu Wan to interact with him more. However, apart from her grandfather, the rest of the Liu family was rather indifferent towards Chen Fan. When he arrived, he was dressed in cheap clothes, and his behavior was that of an ordinary person, which made him seem out of place. Still, they didn't ostracize him, as the family maintained a certain level of grace and tolerance. Her grandfather had hoped for Liu Wan to keep Chen Fan as an assistant, but Liu Wan had assigned him as the head of the security team instead. But now, her grandfather was insisting that she bring Chen Fan to Yang Ling's birthday party...
"Dad, isn't this a bit inappropriate? The attendees will be prominent figures and outstanding young talents from the capital, and…" And Chen Fan is just a security chief. This is almost a joke, Liu Wan thought to herself.
"I have no choice; it's your grandfather's wish. I'm sorry, Wan'er," her father said, feeling guilty and awkward over the phone.
"It's okay, Dad. I'll take him," Liu Wan understood her father's predicament and didn't want to make things difficult for him.
"Thank you, Wan'er. I'm sorry for the trouble," her father said, relieved yet still guilty. He knew his daughter didn't genuinely want to bring Chen Fan to the party, but he couldn't oppose the old man's autocratic decision. He felt sorry for his daughter, having to deal with such a burden.
"It's fine, Dad. I'll hang up now," Liu Wan said, ending the call. She looked at her assistant and said, "Qing Ran, inform Chen Fan to get ready and accompany me to Yang Ling's birthday party later."
"President, this... Alright," her beautiful assistant agreed, then went downstairs to notify Chen Fan.
