141. Three hours dress up

The tension in the room narrated as everyone stretched their ears to hear properly without missing a word. That's a big scoop they were about to hear.

''Aiyo... Fenfen, since when were you so nosy?'' Li Zhilan wanted to run away but that would only make it seem more dubious so instead, she tried to brush the topic off but fortunately or unfortunately, the other party wasn't will to cooperate.

''Xiao Li, when it comes to scoops especially when it's related to such big people much less the Great Qi Longwei, I bet no one would want to maintain their image and try not to be nosy. See, even our great director Tang is listening with glistening eyes and stretched ears. Now quit trying to change the topic and tell us, did you know President Qi from before?''

''Yes.''

''What? And you kept such a big thing from me. Xiao Li, I didn't expect this from you. You should have shared.'' Ju Fen couldn't help but feel that this friend of hers is a traitor.

''So that you could fan girl? No thank you.''

''So what? There is no denying that. But as for you, hump, you better be honest now, or else...'' Ju Fen said folding her invisible sleeves up. And Li Zhilan could do nothing about it other then to nod in agreement.

''How did you get to know eachother?''

''Class mates for-"

"What...? You are so freaking lucky. Tell me, How was he during highschool? Was he always this handsome? Was he a nice classmate? Did he ever help you with anything? Did he have a crush? Did he-"

''Woah... woah... hold your horses girl. Atleast let me complete my words first before you start firing your machine gun. As for how he is, well, we were inkt classmates for three months. I was there for an exchange program, as the candidate from my school.''

''Oh... So it's just three months.'' Ju Fen's voice had dropped and she seemed dispirited before she shouted at the top of her voice, ''Three months. Three freaking months are a lot if you don't know. So you weren't studying in the same high school as him. It was an exchange program?'' Bu the last sentence, Ju Fen's voice had dropped again.

''Duh... I completed my studies in Country M while he completed here, in the country itself. How could we be permanent classmates? Try using that pea nut sized brain of yours for a bit.'' Li Zhilan flicked Ju Fen's forehead lightly as she mentioned 'that pea nut sized brain.'

''Alright alright. Didn't we come here for dinner? Are you guys trying to fill your stomachs with gossips or with actual food. I don't know about you all, but i definitely need food to fill my stomach. And Uncle Tang, I meant it when I sad that we, probably I, am gong to eat till you are poor.''

With that said, just when Li Zhilan picked up her chopsticks to start the door to the private room was pushed open.

In walked the man who was the topic of discussion just a minute ago. Donning a two piece black suit, Qi Longwei walked in with his back towards the light. It really made him seem like an immortal who just descended from heaven.

''President Qi, you are here. I thought you weren't going to make it.'' Director Tang was the first one to stand up and welcome Qi Longwei in.

''Director Qi, sorry about being late. Something came up at the last moment so it took some time.'' The way Qi Longwei said it made it seem cold and full of power but not to the point of over pressuring them.

''You are not late. Ofcourse not. We were just going to start before you came in so you are right on time. It's already good enough that you made it.''

Everyone watched on as Director Tang tried to pacify this great god. It was true that they were just going to start it but it's also true that they were delayed due to Li Zhilan's case. If not, by now, they would be in the middle of their dinner.

While everyone looked on with awe and respect towards Qi Longwei, his assistant, Qi Yi was currently complaining about this male God who spent the last three hours trying on suits and getting dressed.

He had been trying to get ready way before time but it was as if he didn't like anything at all. He changed out of so many suits that Qi Yi even lost count of it. After finding the perfect suit, Qi Longwei had taken so much time to style his hair as well as to choose which cologne to use. At that moment Qi Yi really doubted whether his boss was going for dinner or to a band date. He didn't even drew up so much for the grand occasions he had to attend since the time he took control of the company.

Forget that, Qi Yi had never seen Qi Longwei dress up for anything at all. It was to the point that Qi Yi had thought that his boss didn't care about his looks at all and was just grateful that his boss was born handsome, otherwise, there would have been lots of complications till now because only a well dressed person was deemed important enough for respect. Even if one is rich to the point of no return, once he dresses shabbily, forget about respect, he might just be sneered at even if its not towards his face directly.

While Assistant Qi Yi was complaining to himself, Director Tang spoke up interrupting his mental compliant.

''President Qi, Assistant Qi, please have a seat.'' Director Tang said while patting clean two seats right next to himself.

''Qi Yi, go sit.'' Qi Longwei said as he started to walk forward. Instead of gong towards the seat Director Tang suggested, he took a detour.

''Can you move to the seat beside Director Tang?''
