Grabbing attention

Time Tower, one of the most luxurious, high profile, with the best lake scenery from all the sides, and one of the most costly hotels in City A, was decorated with blue and golden color, tiny light bulbs. The light of the Time Tower reflect in the lake water making it more mesmerizing, one could never take its eyes off. With cars constantly coming and going at the gate, carrying many high profile faces, which citizens rarely see.

At the entrance, stood two figures, one a man and the other a woman who were in their mid forties, dressed in a mixture of red and pink color long gown, the women displayed grace and maturity, pairing it with nude color high heels, no one can guess her real age. The man was clade in an all black five-piece suit, displaying power. The hall had tables clothed with cream color, with vases of flowers on them.

"Happy birthday, Mr Sid."

"Happy birthday, President Sid."

"Happy birthday, Mr Sid, live long."

The nineteen of the month came, Sid Bao's fortieth birthday. Soon, the hall, on the second floor was filled with people forming groups and socializing, the guest includes, actors, Ministers, and CEO's of many multinational companies. Everyone greeted Sid Bao and his wife, Ji Song at the entrance, giving their wishes to them and gifts, which were taken away by the maid, to a big room, which was now filled. Calmly returning the greetings, both husband and wife had a smile on their face, Ji Song hooked her arm with Sid Bao's and stood still. Her eyes showed gentleness, once she saw a girl walking towards them with a big box being carried behind her. Dressed in a purple Chanel latest collection gown, which went down her ankle, and a slit up to her thigh, displaying the sense of seductive and playfulness. The attire was sleeveless and backless, which stood bright in the sea, differently. Her hairs at end were curled, donning her gown with matching earrings on her earlobes, seemingly seductive, one glance won't be enough to cool the sensation she would give when passed by.

"Ay'er." Waving at the girl, Ji Song smiled.

"Mother." Nodding her head, she turned toward Sid Bao, "Happy birthday, father." Giving a peak on his cheeks, Sid Xiniay signalled her bodyguard to pass the gift.

Gentleness could be detected in Sid Bao's eyes, he smiled and patted his only daughter's head lovingly.

"Ay'er, Ah Femng parents are there, go greet them." Sid Xiniay shyly nodded and excused herself to greet her 'would be in-laws'.

"Uncle Haung Zin, Aunt Ming." Two of them turned, when their names was mention.

Mrs. Haung Ming's expression soften, so was Mr. Haung Zin's.

"Ay'er." Hugging her, Mrs Haung smiled. "Look at you, you became so thin from the last time we met. Ah Femng isn't treating you properly?"

Shyly tucking the strand of hair behind her ear, "Aunt Ming, Brother Femng treats me well. It's for my shoot that I've to diet."

"Poor child, you don't have to work so hard, at the end you'll be the Prestigious Young Mistress of our family." A genuine smile hang on Mrs. Haung's face. Sid Xiniay acted shy on the outside, but was celebrating on inside, 'Haha, that bit*h, ZouMing, look I took everything away from you. And from tomorrow, you'll have nothing, shameless sl*t.' Sid Xiniay celebrated and felt happy once she thought of what was going to happen. She hasn't forgotten the insult in Me&U. Sid Xiniay's entry send two different kinds of waves in the hall, for women, they were jealous, while men were eyeing her chest, which looked fuller because of the fitted gown, to her fair back. Grabbing attention was Sid Xiniay one of the easiest talent, and after meeting the Haung family in such an intimate manner, rumors in soft whispers started to spread among the people.

Sid Bao's eyes never left the entrance, he was impatiently waiting for someone. Who could it be if not, ZouMing? Of course, he was waiting for her arrival.

Many were here just to expend their businesses, mingling with different CEO's. The hall was filled with heavily dressed ladies from prestigious families, accompanying their partner's. Some ladies excused themselves from the gents and indulge in show offing their wealth. As time passed, the patience in Sid family grew to lessen, their eyes fixed on the door, waiting for the entry.

"Mr. Sid, looks like your important guest haven't arrived yet. Your eyes are fixed on the door." One of his business partner came forward to make small talks.

Mrs. Sid smiled, while Sid Bao had no intention to say a word.

'Bit*h where are? As if your sl*ty Mother wasn't enough, you're also a headache.' Mrs. Sid cursed a bit more to ZouMi and her Mother, whom she hated to the core, dude to her undying beauty, on which Sid Bao has also fallen.

The demon and ill mind of theirs were hidden behind their pretty faces.

When Ji Song came in Sid Mansion for the first time, after her marriage, her mother-in-law treated her like air, while giving all her attention to her first daughter-in-law, Xi Jiang. Yun Yixi, Sid An's mother, never took Sid Bao as her son, so, she also wasn't accept by her. Ji Song envied Xi Jiang for not just the attention she gets, but also for her beauty, manners and elegance. She, Ji Song, was from a prestigious, had top-notch manners, yet, was neglected for an orphan, which hurt her ego. Playing tricks behind Xi Jiang was the one thing she did every day, still Xi Jiang would come out harmless. After the An family was chased out, Ji Song, celebrated by drinking till drop. Added to that, her so-called mother-in-law also passed, while her father-in-law was in her favor, she was happy. And now, her daughter, ZouMing will meet her end, this will call for another celebration for her.
