Ahh, the entire capital city seemed to know that he would attend old master Lu's birthday celebration . This was such a coincidence!
Yan Rusheng sneered in his heart and asked nonchalantly, "Why is Secretary Liu looking for me?"
Secretary Liu didn't expect to address him in such manner . His expression stiffened, but quickly lightened the atmosphere by laughing heartily again . "It's regarding that piece of land in Haicheng city . My superiors had given orders that the relocation matter must be settled by the end of the year . "
Yan Rusheng smirked coldly . "I thought Secretary Liu is already the head of department . "
"Huh?" Secretary Liu froze with guilt for a moment . "President Yan must be joking . "
"Ah Sheng . "

At this moment, Fang Jiayin walked over . Carrying a small pink purse in her hand, she walked with elegant steps even in her high heels .
When they heard her voice, Yan Rusheng and Secretary Liu looked in her direction at the same time .
"Jiayin, President Yan and you were old classmates . Have a chat with him . " Secretary Liu pulled Jiayin over to Yan Rusheng and smiled . "I'll go over there to greet some familiar faces . "
Having said that, he patted Fang Jiayin meaningfully on her shoulders .
Fang Jiayin remained silent and there was a faint smile at the corner of her smile . She looked at Yan Rusheng with her watery and vivid eyes .
She moved closer to him and asked softly, "Where's Xuxu? Didn't she come with you?"
After asking, she swept her gazed around the ballroom, hoping to catch a glimpse of Xuxu .

Yan Rusheng replied nonchalantly, "She's upstairs . "
"Oh" . Fang Jiayin nodded her head and looked at Yan Rusheng again . "You were planning to go up and look for her?"
Yan Rusheng nodded in response . "Mm . "
"Then go ahead . " Fang Jiayin smiled and replied graciously, "I'll go and look for Lu Yinan and the rest . "
Lu Yinan and Ming Ansheng happened to walk over at the same time .
"Jiayin . "
Fang Jiayin looked at them and grinned . "Young Master Lu . "
Lu Yinan and Ming Ansheng walked over to Yan Rusheng and Fang Jiayin one after another .
Ming Ansheng leaned against the handrail of the staircase, facing Fang Jiayin and examined her from head to toe . There was a smile on his face, but it wasn't genuine .
"Miss Fang, what a coincidence . "
He was different from Lu Yinan . He took over his family business right after his graduation . The people he had met, the things that he had gone through, and the social circle that he was in touch with were more complicated . His thoughts were definitely more scheming than Lu Yinan's .
Fang Jiayin's sudden appearance had turned the harmonious relationship between Yan Rusheng and Xuxu upside down . Although it appeared to be a coincidence and that her life had also been constantly bothered by the public and media since then, somehow, he sensed that she wasn't that innocent .
Furthermore, he was still baffled over the reason for Fang Jiayin's sudden departure and for turning away from Yan Rusheng . Hence, there was an ill-feeling in his heart .
Unlike Lu Yinan, he wouldn't let his guard down towards her .
"Young Master Ming . " Fang Jiayin and Ming Ansheng greeted each other lightly . Maintaining a smile on their faces, their attitudes were neither humble or arrogant .
Lu Yinan patted Ming Ansheng's shoulders suddenly and said, "Just nice . We wanted to play mahjong but Third Yan wasn't interested and we are short of one player . Jiayin, come and join us . "
Fang Jiayin waved her hand and rejected the suggestion . "I don't know how to play mahjong . "
Lu Yinan stretched out his hand and held one to her . "We can teach you . "
Fang Jiayin smiled and shook her head . "I really don't know how to play . Even if you were to teach me, I don't think I'll be able to learn it . "
"Miss Fang is so smart . You'll be able to learn it fast . "
