Romance Of Flame And Ice Chapter 352
Advertisement
The classical music piece filled the entire hall as the guests at the event were busy socialising and awaiting the entrance of important figures in the business industry and entertainment industry while the cameras are shuttering without stopping.
Expensive cars were pulling up one after the other while the occupants walk on the red carpet before they enter the main hall.
With the lavishness and exquisite arrangement of the anniversary, Han Corporation indeed precedes its reputation in the heart of the guests, after maintaining a low profile for years while being on top everyone are happy they got this chance today.
After almost all the guests had arrived, the press were now awaiting the entrance of the main guests they need to make the headlines, immediately a luxurious black jeep pulled up, they took their position.
The five friends arrived excluding Yu Yan in their tuxedos and dresses, An Ke walked with their arms around Li Chen's arms while Ji Chen and Jia Yu did the same leaving only Meng Yao single, they allowed the press to take pictures for a while before they entered the main hall.
Everyone turned to admire them as they made their entrance, the guys looked very dashing in their identical black tuxedo and bow tie while the girls were stunning in their dresses.
Jia Yu is in a long high neck cap sleeved sparkle dress with earrings hooked on her ear and a silver purse in her hand, her silver heels completely matched the theme while An Ke is wearing a pink knee-length V necked tulle gown with box-shaped silver earrings and heels. Meng Yao is in a halter neck black tulle gown with gold hoop earrings and necklace.
Each grabbed a glass of white wine from one of the waiters going around then they stood next to a table stand where they cheered while Jia Yu peeped outside as she was already expecting her parents to have arrived.
Just as she was still having the thought, she heard loud shutters from outside then realised that they are already there.
Both entered with their arms linked, her father in a cream coloured tuxedo and her mother is wearing a formal black long pencil skirt and a belted black blazer, their presence in the hall had everyone clamouring and fawning over them.
Jia Yu shook her head.
"I made the right decision to not get involved with the company or I would be in the same situation," she remarked.

The rest nodded in agreement.
Another presence made it become noisy outside.
Chen Kai arrived alone without his family in a wine tuxedo and black overcoat, he wanted to use this chance to get his face in the media again especially after the problem with his company got solved even if he doesn't know why Xiaomeng still helped him.
Instead of letting him enter directly like the others, they began crowding him with questions.
"How do you feel now that your family company's crisis has been solved?"
"Do you think Chen Corporation will be able to remain stable for long?"
"Is your ex-fiance coming here today?"
"Are you here alone?"
They kept bombarding him with questions but he decided to answer the easiest one.
"I am no longer in contact with my ex-fiance but I will be attending the anniversary alone," he made his way up the stairs leading to the main hall but stopped when the reporters rushed behind him, he turned back only to see his father and mother alight the car and just when he thought they were the only ones, someone else alighted the car.
"Li Wei," he muttered with his eyes widened and his hands out of his pocket at the sight of the step-brother he loathes.
The three of them walked forward with the image of a perfect family, excluding him.
"Wasn't he in America?" even when he saw a name that looked like his on a rota, he never suspected it was his step-brother.
"Is this the rumoured illegitimate son of the Chen family?" a reporter asked.
"He is my legitimate son, the illegitimate son is the one standing up there," Mr Chen answered with his hands pointing at Chen Kai, his shoulders dropped and his eyes narrowed at the situation he wanted to use to his advantage.
Instead of answering more questions, the three of them walked past him but Li Wei flashed him a smirk before walking past.
Even his mother?
He could tell she was being forced but now he will make headlines as the illegitimate son of the Chen family, he hurried up the stairs to catch up with them but before he could get to them, they had already entered the hall and started introducing Li Wei to everyone in the circle including the Jia family.

An Ke and the others couldn't understand why her boyfriend is standing with Chen Kai's parents and they are even introducing him to everyone.
"Is he perhaps...?"
"The illegitimate son of the Chen family, Chen Kai's stepbrother," Jia Yu completed then they all turned to An Ke who has a betrayed expression on her face, she couldn't believe they have been dating for so long yet she didn't know he is the stepbrother of the animal who hurt her friend.
She was going to confront him but Li Chen the peacemaker held her hand before she could go any further.
"Don't," he cautioned, she bit her lips in anger then stepped back.
"He probably didn't want to tell you because he knows how much we all hate Chen Kai," Jia Yu said to appease her anger, her conscience was triggered seeing how unhappy An Ke looks, it makes her wonder how Yu Yan will feel if she finds out that both she and Han Chen are hiding a secret from her.
"He has a lot of explaining to do later," she said then gulped down the entire glass of wine.
They were still discussing it when everyone suddenly turned to the entrance of the hall due to the uproar outside, they could hear the reporters throwing questions at whoever it is that had just arrived.
"Why have you stayed hidden from the media all these years?"
"Has your aunt really handed the full authority to you?"
"Who is she?"
They walked past them as they climbed the stairs with their arms linked while the press followed after them.
They soon came into the view of those in the hall but with every step they took, they became more curious to see who it was.
They finally arrived at the entrance where they glanced at each other with a smile on their face before turning to the guests.
They were totally in couples mode in matching white and black, he is wearing a black turtle neck top in an off white blazer and trousers with a black overcoat, making his broad shoulders more noticeable while she is wearing a long white blazer dress buttoned all the way down with a round gold necklace and drop earrings, her hair is tied in a neat ponytail and her makeup bold.
Their overall look is giving the business couple vibes.
His Aunt and uncle watched them with pride written on their faces, they all couldn't tell who he is and why the media is giving him such importance.
Before they could crowd them, Yu Yan unlinked her arm from Han Chen and walked towards her godparents, giving them a hug.
They spoke for a while under the curious gaze of those around them then she left to meet with her friends.
She walked towards them with her face beaming in smiles.
They were almost drooling at how classy she looks in that formal dress, the look they never thought they would want to see in her so badly.
"You are stunning," Li Chen complimented as soon as she got to them while Ji Chen just kept staring at her without any words to express himself.
She is his old crush and a friend for so many years yet he sees her as a person he will always admire not romantically and this is something Jia Yu understood before they got together.
Their stare on her was starting to make her feel uncomfortable even though she chose the look herself.
"Why are you guys still staring?"
"I will I could steal that face of yours," Jia Yu remarked but Ji Chen cleared his throat.
"I don't think I can handle my brother in law if you do that," he joked, implying that if Han Chen decides to retaliate then he won't be strong enough to defend her.
They all laughed at his joke.
Her eyes caught Li Wei shaking Han Chen's hand but she has never seen them
together, not to talk of the fact that Chen Kai's parents are right beside him.
Seeing Mrs Chen made her mind flashback to when she was embarrassed during Chen Kai's welcome party, she balled her fist as she glared at them.
They soon noticed her line of sight so they guessed she must have remembered that night.
"If you don't want them here you can have them removed," Jia Yu said, she wasn't expecting her brother to have invited the Chen family but she knows once Yu Yan says the word they will be sent out immediately.
