Her beautiful eyes seemed to be lost in the depths of an abyss .
"Everything is destined and love can't be forced . "
"Wen Xuxu, do you really think so?"
There was an enigmatic smile on her face and suddenly, she tilted her head and gulped down an entire glass of wine .
Secretary Liu, who was sitting beside her, inched closer and whispered, "Jiayin, don't drink so much . "
His eyes swept past Yan Rusheng swiftly and said softly, "I don't see how the current Young Madam Yan is better than you . "
"The Young Madam Yan now…"

Fang Jiayin threw a glance at Yan Rusheng and Xuxu . Her expression was unfathomable .
She placed the glass down . She turned to look at Secretary Liu as she rubbed her temples . "Uncle, when is the celebration ending? I have a slight headache and I would like to go home first . "
She ignored his previous comment and declined to divulge her thoughts to him .
Secretary Liu answered sternly, "Old Master Lu is an esteemed and prominent figure . How can we excuse ourselves from his birthday celebration now?"
He stole a glance at the piano and the music had stopped . Yan Rusheng held Xuxu's hand as they stood up together .
A scheming and sly gleam flashed past Secretary Liu's eyes and he inched once more towards Fang Jiayin's ears . "You can play the violin very well . Why don't you perform a song for them?"
Without giving Fang Jiayin a chance to protest, he grabbed her by her arm . He turned around to the next table where Old Master Lu was . He said with a smile, "Old Master Lu, my niece has just came back from abroad and she is a great violinist . She would like to perform a song for you as well . "

Fang Jiayin was annoyed by Secretary Liu's suggestion . She flung her hand away . "Uncle!"
With an apologetic expression, she turned to Old Master Lu . "Grandfather Lu, sorry I'm not feeling well today . Hence, I shall not embarrass myself . I'll perform for you another time . "
"No worries . " Old Master Lu smiled benevolently at Fang Jiayin . "If you're unwell, ask Yishan to bring you upstairs to take a rest . "
Lu Yishan was just standing beside him and he gave her a meaningful glance .
Lu Yishan responded right away and walked to Fang Jiayin . "Miss Fang, please follow me . "
Fang Jiayin rejected politely . "It's alright, I'm just feeling a little stuffy . I'll take a walk outside . "
She bowed at Old Master Lu graciously and turned around to walk towards the door .
The second she raised her head, two familiar figures appeared a short distance away .
She was stunned for a second time and then quickly wore a smile . "Ah Sheng, Xuxu, that performance had showcased the perfect rapport between the both of you . "
When Xuxu heard Fang Jiayin calling him 'Ah Sheng', she withdrew her hand instinctively .
Yan Rusheng's grip on her hand suddenly became empty and he glanced at her . Xuxu had already put her hands behind her back, avoiding him on purpose .
His face immediately fell .
Secretary Liu came towards them with a bright smile . "President Yan, you and your wife put on such a great performance earlier on . "
Yan Rusheng vented his anger at Secretary Liu and with an scornful expression, he said, "To Secretary Liu, that should be considered as just a good performance . "
Xuxu was dumbfounded .
How could this fellow embarrass the capital city's committee secretary in front of so many people?
Furthermore, he was Fang Jiayin's uncle .
Secretary Liu's smile transformed into an awkward expression in a split second . He turned to glance at Fang Jiayin . "Jiayin, you should chat with them . "
Fang Jiayin's face fell as well and she didn't respond .
Earlier on when Secretary Liu had dragged Fang Jiayin to fawn upon Old Master Lu, Xuxu and Yan Rusheng had witnessed the scene .
