To Love You Again

Chapter 160 - The Guests

Rows of chandeliers were hanging up the ceiling. A classic melody was played by the musicians at the side.

Tables after tables were lined up.

At the center of it was a walkway platform that the models would walk on once the main event started. For now, that part was a bit dim.

The tables that were nearest to the platform have four chairs. It was for the VIPs.

The tables who were a bit far from the platform has six chairs. It was for normal guests.

Every table has a number.

The people who were present at the moment were all sitting at the six chair table. Their eyes were coming back and forth from the entrance and the four-chair table. They wanted to see who would show for this year's VIP. They also wanted to seat in the VIP area too.

"I've heard the number of VIPs this year increased. It looks like its true." One of a Japanese figurehead talked to a Singaporean beside him. They were both an owner of a conglomerate company. And they have also participated in this event five years ago.

"It doesn't matter if it increased. Not all can maintain the seat. I'm more looking forward to meeting the VIPs from Israel." The Singaporean guy said.

"You mean the Abromich family? I've heard Sir Ifel will bring his son." An Italian guy joined their discussion.

"Yes. " the rest on the table who heard his answer looked at him with different expressions on their faces. The Singaporean guy ignored them. He knew why they were acting this way.

"Do you really think you can widen your connections by hugging the Abromich's tigh? So what's if he was the ruler of the underworld in the middle east? Sir Majid Al Ghurair was more powerful than him. He had taken roots in Asia and South America. " A half Chinese and half American walked to their table and argue with the Singaporean guy.

"What's does it have to do to you? " the Singaporean guy did not back away. He knew of the man's background. He knew that they have the same high status in society. He was not afraid.

All people here were all predators. Usually, in the gathering of mighty figures, these predators sealed their carnivorous ways and showed their imposing manner by sitting peacefully and interacting with harmony. However, there were predators as well who were aggressive and wanted to break the peace that these predators wanted to maintain. Especially, when the bigger predators were not yet present. These make the small predators to reign while the bigger ones were gone.

But before a war breaks out, a reporter suddenly came to their table to record these exchanges.

The Singaporean guy saw this and looked away from the half Chinese-half American guy.

The half Chinese-American scoffed seeing how the man before him back away from the argument because of a puny reporter.

"Coward."

The Singaporean guy heard it and wanted to retort back when the entrance hall opened and a bunch of people entered. There were all surrounding a person inside. Seeing this, the guest in the hallway knew that the first VIP came.

Their guess was right because that man who was supporting a beautiful girl went to the VIP area.

Then they saw their face. They become a bit disappointed. However, some people were still happy especially those who owned an advertis.e.m.e.nt company, media corp, and talent agency.

The VIP was none other than Kwang Sook, the owner of a big entertainment company that single-handedly dominated the entertainment industry in Korea, Mongolia, and Hongkong. The woman he brought with him was the rising star in Korea.

The moment they sat, the people that guarding them went to the back, then five people from the normal first area stand up and went to the couple's direction. The guards blocked them first then let them come to the couple before the guards went to the back. The five people then shake hands to Kwang Sook. They were probably introducing themselves and then sucked up to him.

Then there was another uproar in the entrance. A group of people entered next.

It was a Japanese man who was surrounded by his guards. He doesn't have a plus one.

The Japanese guy from the six-chair earlier gasped.

" It was Shinichi Tanaka! Now, I know why the old man announced he was not going to attend this year's IAmFashionista."

A few days ago, that old man who owned the biggest technology corp and the Tanaka group announced in Japan's daily news that he would not attend the year's IAmFashionista.

It was because it turned out that his grandson would be the one attending instead.

Shinichi Tanaka was only in his early twenties. He owned the Simsung company, a company he builds by himself. Simsung company was the hottest topic in Japan nowadays.

The Japanese guy was so happy that the heir was here. He stands up and approached Shinichi.

After these two entrances, a lot of VIPs keep coming.

These made the guests in six-chair held their breaths. Even though, they are wealthy and their connections were higher than most rich people, it was still at different levels to the people who were in the VIP area.

The VIP's from North America came as well.

The CEO of the biggest US auto motor, Alan Rock, came with his wife.

The recently popular and was the hottest innovative in these five years, the Owner of 'Orange', Timothy Watt came with his girlfriend.

After the representative from North America, the Tang family came.

Tang Xinyang who was wearing a silver gown was hugging Jang Shin's arm tightly. She actually muttering something under her breath.

"I should be compensated. I should be compensated. I should be compensated." Tang Xinyang kept muttering this as Jang Shin was stiff under that strong arms. He was still afraid of Tang Xinyang.

"Keep walking fast! Don't let those bastards come near me." Tang Xinyang dragged Jang Shin who was walking stiffly like a robot.

'Oh. God. Help me. Let this day end peacefully.' Jang Shin silently prayed.

"Don't worry, I won't cause trouble. I promise my grandmother and my sister that I won't be rough anymore. I still don't like this kind of gathering. I don't have a good tongue. You'll do the speaking this time."

Tang Xinyang instructed Jang Shin.

Jang Shin nodded like a chicken. He was glad to do that as long the miss don't cause a ruckus.

Tang Xinyang watched as the people surrounded her to greet her.

'I hope Linfeng finds my sister soon.'

Tang Xinyang had this thought before she smiles politely to these bastards.

In the entrance, after the Tang family entered, the Guan family came next.

The legendary families were not just famous in Asia. They were also known to the rest of the world in high society. Since China has the biggest territory in the world, the legendary families from the said country also have wealth and business that could not be counted even you've spent a year to count. They were one of the unmovable mountains that did not budge to their seat. Ever since the IAmFashionista was created, they have their own seat that they've maintained.

So these people, who only met them this year's event flock to them to receive some of their grace.

Guan Gao Huan gently smiled at these people. But he didn't speak first without his grandfather's speaking first. The older must have authority in their group.

It was only that Guan Gao Huan truly smiled when the half-Chinese and half- American approached them. But he still did not day anything.

The Tang family and the Guan family was in a different table. They were separated by one table. Tang Xinyang just bowed to Master Guan before she looked away.

Guan Gao Huan looked at Tang Xinyang who did not greet him nor spare him a glance. This was what Gao Huan expected. The Tang Xinyang he knew from the investigation team was aloof and a tomboy.

Guan Gao Huan then glanced at the man that Tang Xinyang brought. When he saw the familiar face, Gao Huan's eyes flashed then returned to gentle eyes. Jang Shin and Gao Huan's eyes met.

They kept their thoughts as they just nodded to each other.

Then there was another commotion in the entrance, another legendary family came.

It was the Lu family.

Master Lu was supported by Lu Yin Ze. Their white suit was in tandem. Some people could not help but gossip. It was the first time they saw Lu Yin Ze. Even they gathered information, their information team could not gather any pictures of him. So the guests who saw Lu Yin Ze for the first time were shocked by how handsome he looked and how unique and different he was from his grandfather. Some people were quickly witted and some who were knowledgeable remembered Master Lu's deceased wife.

But most of the people were excited to connect with this young man who would be likely the heir of the Lu family. Since he was brought by Master Lu.

The Lu group's table was on the table between the Guan family and the Tang family.

Master Lu just glared at Master Guan who greeted him with a joke. The harmony in the legendary family in China seems to be good.

Master Guan then said to Master Lu,

"I'm wondering where Old Xiong designated seat is. I hope he will seat beside you haha." Master Guan looked like he wanted to see Old Xiong and Old Lu bicker with each other.

"Don't talk to me." Old Lu ignored Old Guan's teasing and looked around. He saw that the napkins on the two vacant seat were not the Xiong's crest. It was a silver Lion that was eaten by a gold fire. Seeing this crest made Master Lu frowned. He looked at his napkin. His family's crest was a silver Lion. The crest of their tablemates was mocking him. Mocking the entire Lu family.

'Setting a Lion on fire?'

However, Master Lu doesn't have a chance to think about it because many people were approaching him and his grandson.

Another group came.

They were the VIPs from Israel.

Ifel Abromich and his son, Eitan Abromich were walking side by side with a confident expression in their face. A lot of people approaches them so it took a long time for them to reach on their table. Their tablemates were Tang Xinyang and Jang Shin.

When Eitan saw that there was a young woman on their table he looked up and down to Tang Xinyang.

"Wow. There is a beautiful woman here. Lucky." Eitan smirk and greeted Tang Xinyang.

"Beautiful woman, I'm Eitan." Eitan stared rudely at Tang Xinyang.

Tang Xinyang looked at him with a frown on her face. She shook hands with Eitan. However, when she about to take off her hand, Eitan did not let go and squeezed her hand. There was l.u.s.t in Eitan's eyes. It was telling her something like 'let's meet later and have fun'. This made Tang Xinyang gulped. Not because she was scared. She found it disgusting to the point of punching this man's face.

In return, Tang Xinyang squeezed his hands too. But she squeezed it too much that Eitan wanted to let go but can't.

'Ouch!'

"Nice. to. meet you. Too." Tang Xinyang said sweetly hardly. Emphasizing each word. Her eyes were scary as it was ready to pounce to its prey at any moment.

Jang Shin uses his mouth then.

"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Eitan and Mr. Ifel." Jang Shin holds Tang Xinyang other and hands and squeezed it. Reminding her to not cause a ruckus. Tang Xinyang calmed down and ignored the two.

Jang Shin sighed. It would be bad if the ruler of the underground of the middle-east gathered bad guys and waited for them outside. But it was actually bad for the other party because he knew that Tang Xinyang could beat even a hundred of them.

At that moment, many VIP's and normal guest keep coming.

It was then another commotion came from the entrance.

It was the Xiong family.

The last one from the legendary family.

People gathered to meet them and strike a conversation. Like how the other legendary family suffered from.

It took a long time for them to arrive at the VIP area.

Xiong Zhi was silent the whole time. She did not look around. It was because she was reminded by her grandfather to not look around.

'People will come to look for us. So you don't have to look around.' That's what her grandfather said.

It was only then when she arrived at their table.

The asher bowed to them,

"In this table, Master Xiong and Young miss."

The Xiong's tiger crest was embroidered in the table's napkin in front of their seats. It was to let the guest know where their seat was.

However Xiong Zhi's eyes were not there.

It was on the man who was sitting on that table.

The Guan family was seated together with the Xiong family.
