The Celebration (2)

All the servants and other staff, who watched the father and son drama, were trying their best not to look in their direction. But whenever they looked, they couldn't help smiling. Behind those heavy titles of the mayor and the chairman, they were nothing but two very normal individuals – a parent and a child.

Soon after, guests started arriving in throngs and the hall was buzzing with activity. Everyone had come and congratulated Wu Lina for her success. It was clearly written in the invitation card that no gifts would be accepted, hence most of them came with flowers. Soon there was a huge pile of flowers next to Wu Lina on a table beside her.

Every member of the Yang family had arrived, but the mayor was looking for someone who had not as yet arrived. When Wu Lina looked at him, he was gazing every now and then at the main entrance. She went near him and asked, "Father, are you waiting for someone. Do you want me to call them?"
