The Chen family looked stupefied at her.
Mother Chen never imagined that the girl who was so nervous a while ago will face the reporter headstrong.
Her words were a slap to almost every heir and heiress. It is indeed difficult to start a business from scratch. Almost everybody present was easily able to reach their position because they had their fathers or grandfathers already as the bosses.
Only Liu and Chen family were different. Liu Jinhai and Chen Jianyu started like any other normal employee who had to work hard to get raise and promoted.
Presentations, overtime, salary, and everything; they got just like any other ordinary employee. It was made clear that unless they surpass their fathers, they will never get the CEO position, even if they had to handover it to someone else.
So, they understand more than anyone else how much sweat needs to be shed to be recognized and stand on your own two feet.
Liu Jinhai smiled. She is gentle, but she can be tough as hell when the need arises. She won’t take sh*t from anybody.
He slowly started clapping.
Everybody looked in his direction. Liu Hai and Jing smiled widely and started clapping as well.
Mother Chen also got very emotional and started clapping while Jianyu also felt proud of her.
Nana saw Jinhai smiling at her. “Well done”, he mouthed silently. She nodded and smiled back.
The rest of the guests clapped too. Some even felt incredibly ashamed.
Huian was on her way to her room with Assistant Xin. She heard everything that Nana said, and felt that her bubbling hate will burst out when she saw Jinhai clapping for her.
Another reporter asked, “The Tang’s are not invited to the banquet. Both of your families have known each other for so long. Have you officially broken all your ties with them?”
“Is there still animosity because of Chen Jianyu and Tang Suyin’s break up?”
Suyin looked up at the stage.
Chen Liling smiled. “I didn’t want any unpleasantness tonight by announcing Nana as Jianyu’s fiance in front of the ex-girlfriend. I will leave the rest to your imagination.”
The reporters asked some other questions for the next few minutes and the main event of the night was over.

Huian closed the door behind and looked at Xin.
Xin asked, “What was it you wished to talk about, Lady Liu?”
She said nervously, “I realized that it may be about those…letters. Is that why you are ready to disturb him amidst this important banquet?”
He smiled. “And what if it is?”
She said, “I-I don’t think this is a good time. It is a happy event. You shouldn’t ruin the mood.”
“Are you anyhow connected to all these recent happenings, Lady Liu? Why do you want to delay it?”

“Assistant Xin! Mind your tongue. You merely work under my husband. Are you insinuating that I’m behind all this?”, she glared at him.
He laughed, “And just a few moments ago you said that I was like family to Liu’s.”
She gritted her teeth. “You…”
“No matter what happens I will tell the truth to Sir. Tonight.”
Her heart thudded. “T-truth?”
“Yes, Lady Liu. The one that you are trying so hard to hide for the past two years. The truth that made you hire Han Ru to keep an eye on the letters. The truth that you were preventing Sir from investigating it. And the truth that forced you to meet a mere assistant privately.”
She looked at him horrified.
He looked at her coldly, “I know everything, including what you are planning to do tonight.”
She clenched her hands into a fist.
“So, step aside.”
“No! W-wait, Xin.”, she said panicking, “We can talk about this. There is no need to tell Jinhai anything. I will give you anything you want, and you can keep this to yourself.”
“Enough. You have fooled us long enough, Mrs. Liu. I cannot keep Sir in dark anymore. You were even going to force him to…to sleep with you. How much more pathetic can you get?”
“No!”, she cried. “Please, Xin. Don’t tell him. He will hate me. Things are already tough between us now-“
“Which you thought to solve by feeding sir with aphrodisiac?”
“T-that. No. It was just a spur of the moment. I realized that I should not do this to him. I swear I was not going to use it on him.”
“Your words are just as fake as your tears. Don’t bother trying them on me.”
“No! Please understand, Xin. I did what I did because I love him too much. I didn’t want to lose him. I-I couldn’t think of anything else at that time. Now if he knows everything, it will ruin my marriage. And whatever I did is already a thing of the past now. Why do you want to destroy everything!?”
He looked at her in utter disdain. “You are the one who has destroyed everything by your own selfishness. Did you ever think of sir even once if he’ll be happily married to you? No. You just thought of your own happiness.”
“He is happy with me!”, she screamed.
“I have wasted enough of my time. You can choose to lie or say the truth. But, you cannot stop me from doing my duty.”
He headed forward to walk out of the room.
Huian’s heart was in her throat.
“Xin, wait! You cannot do this.”
He ignored her.
Huian was scared out of her wits. Her sight went to the nearby vase. In sheer panic, she grabbed it and hit him on his head.
“Ah!!”
He clutched his head and blood slowly started to ooze out. He tried hard but his consciousness was fading away. The world blurred before him and he fell down with a thud.
