Chapter 918: Meant To Be Ill-fated.

As expected, soon the late afternoon appeared and as promised to cover the event of engagement, representatives from various media houses started coming to the venue, Emerald De-Luxe. 

Built on the reference of one of the ancient palace designs, Emerald De-Luxe was one of the famous independent hotels in Jingling City. Not only was it famous for its architecture but also for the regular hosting of several functions that went on in the high-class families. So the decoration was not something new but kept in the patterns of orchids and lavish lighting. 

Coming to the venue, people were appreciating the decoration. Some were talking about the event and looking around for the couple that was yet to appear. While many others were gossiping around, talking about what made Zheng Wenting and Wen Sying to announce their engagement this suddenly.

To receive and host the guest at the venue Liu Hua has made Li Sheng come early while from Zheng Wenting's side, it was the Zheng couple. Though their expression was looking solemn, there was nothing they could do. Their son has taken the decision to go against them and since they couldn't bear to abandon their son for one reason, they could only be present here. 

"Haozhen, what are you doing? Smile a little or else people will come to understand the discord our family is going through. And that would not be good." Mrs. Zheng said while helping her husband adjust his pocket square. 

The old man frowned, hearing his wife make that request. "You are still asking me to do that. It's already enough for me to show my face here. Don't expect anything above that. Before having this engagement ceremony, your son has not even come to ask me. And you still expect me to hold a smile. I am feeling more embarrassed to stand here." He said while clenching his fist on the side. 

"Mr. Zheng! Mrs. Zheng!" At that right moment, a voice interrupted the couple as they turned to look around to find Li Sheng standing to greet them. 

The lady smiled, looking at him while Zheng Haozhen kept his expression poker. The flavor of bitterness was evident in their eyes that even put Li Sheng at a loss for words. 

"Mr. Li, it's been a long while since we last saw you. How have you been?" Mr. Zheng asked and knowing the curt conversation the woman was trying to make, Li Sheng could only smile and nod. 

"Yes, yes, it's been quite a long since we last met like this. But it seems like meeting in a venue like this was our decided fate. So ultimately we are here." He said and his words further soured the mood of the couple.

Zheng Haozhen's expression turned ugly as he was ready to burst out but at the right moment, he was held back by his wife. He turned to look at her as the woman smiled and shook her head, gesturing him to look around the guests, whose eyes were curiously looking at them. 

Then turning to look at Li Sheng she said, "Yes, of course, if not fate then we would surely not be here. After all, in no way we were ready to accept this. Meeting you at a venue like this was one of my dreams as well but in that dream, I have imagined Li Xue to be more perfect. But guessing the turned-out situation it's not hard to tell that fate does not always bring fortune. Some are just meant to be called ill-fated." 

She said, her voice very light so that except for her husband and Li Sheng, no one else gets to hear her. While for other onlookers, her smile was doing the job. 

Li Shen coughed, understanding well the meaning of her words. He wanted to explain and mend the relationship, given Zheng was still the name having the profits in the pocket but the woman didn't allow him for more. Keeping her smile, she simply excused herself, "Ahh, the guests are already here. Since we are the host, it wouldn't look nice if we got ourselves secluded. We need to welcome them. Please excuse us." 

She said and then walked away with her husband. Zheng Wenting's mother has always been the elegant lady of high society and has really liked Li Xue from her heart, accepting her to be her daughter-in-law. Now that she is not the one with whom her son is marrying, she could easily not bring herself to accept it. 

Behind Li Sheng looked around. Since his company's downfall, he has almost lost all his contacts with the people he once knew. Though the faces were familiar in his memories and it was not his first time meeting them, still, he was feeling embarrassed walking to them and starting the talk. 

But soon, every guest at the party got immersed in the talks and none of them thought too much about it. Li Sheng got himself a corner while the Zheng couple also took their seats after greeting almost every pair of the guests. 

Pictures were getting snapped from everywhere. Half of the media team were allowed inside while more than half of them were keeping their camera fixed outside, capturing the shots of every guest entering the venue. 

It was already getting late and people were at least waiting to take a glimpse of Zheng Wenting. But still not finding him around they were looking a bit suspicious of the things. Talks have already started to get around when finally an elegant-looking Range Rover came to stop at the entrance of the venue, marking the arrival of Zheng Wenting. And just behind Zheng Wenting's Range Rover, stopped Wen Sying's Maserati. 

And people's cameras instantly turned to capture the shots of the couple.. Though they were waiting for someone else more than them, still their excitement to get to receive that one person doesn't mean to reduce the importance that the main couple of the evening holds at the party.
