Chapter 35 Everything about her is a coincidence


    "His name is Wang Yu sir", Yang said.


    "Hmm.. Wait.. why does that name sound familiar?" Shi Meng was puzzled.


    Yang briefed Shi Meng about Wang Yu''s back ground and told his conjecture regarding how Su Lin met him by coincidence when she went to that small vige for buying herbs.


    He also added, "Wang Yu was present in the car with madam Su Lin during the ident sir. Since she got discharged, he has just been hanging around her, previously at the shop and now helping her at the house. But, other than that there seems to be no other connection between the two. It all looks very coincidental."


    Chuckling, Shi Meng sneered, "Yes, yes. Definitely! It all looks coincidental right? But is it really? Heh."


    Contemting silently for a while, Shi Meng dismissed Yang, "Enough. I think I know what exactly she is nning. It is in fact very obvious. When the time is right, I will hit her right where it hurts... Then let''s see who you are running to my dear.."


    Leaving behind a sinisterly smiling Shi Meng, Yang rushed back to his desk.


    The week quickly passed and soon the weekend was here ….


    Shi Meng wore a pale violet suit which ented his coral grey eyes. After wearing matching cuff links and his checkered pattern tie, he quickly left for the g.


    Earlier this week and in fact for most of thest month, he had spared a great amount of attention and his time to Su Lin and her surveince, which was affecting his regr work hours and schedule now.


    He had to spend a couple of sleepless nights and very long working hours, till he finally somewhat caught up on all his work. Now he was runningte and rushing to the mayor''s g.


    This time Mayor Tang had organized the g in a 5-star hotel''s private auditorium. It was a simple and elegant event, which made everyone feelfortable and cozy.


    The neatly dressed waiters in ck tie uniform flitted across the room serving exquisite finger foods, appetizers and drinks. On the side, a huge buffet disying multiple cuisines was arranged, in case anyone felt hungrier and wanted a proper meal.


    A ssical pianist was performing on the stage at the front, with a few chairs and tables arranged for seating. There was also a poker table, emitting squeals of giggles andughter.


    In one corner, there was a fortune teller set up, predicting the ups and downs of everybody''s favorite stock. Next to the fortune teller, there was also a pool table, and a few were even rxing there with their drinks.


    Elegantly dressed men and women were scattered around the auditorium engaged in light conversations. There were even a few young sexy socialites invited to mor the party without degrading the event.


    The whole affair looked veryvish and expensive but had a polite and modest feeling to it.


    Before anybody else could circle him, mayor Tang hurriedly pulled Shi Meng to his small group and excitedly patted him. "Here he is.. Shi ! You are almostte!" He introduced him to the invited investors from Europe and literally sang praises about him. Chuckling, Shi Meng politely and charmingly carried the conversation in a natural flow.


    He was fluent in French and made the menfortable by conversing with them in a familiarnguage. He crisply exined his business outline, the tax system and the development n in the city.


    He was about to talk more about his ideas of expanding overseas when a delicate melodious voice interrupted him. "Dad can I borrow Shi Meng for a bit", Tang Yue butted in smiling cutely and innocently.


    She was dressed in an elegant pale sapphire evening gown lined delicately with alternating ck pearls and crushed diamonds. The low neckline was framed by a thin tinum chain with a small diamond pendant.


    Her make up was very lightly done leaving behind a slightly rosy tinge on her inviting cheeks and was entuating her pale smooth snow white skin.


    Tugging at Shi Meng''s shirt, she pulled him aside smiling gently with cute puppy dog eyes.


    Shi Meng immediately threw a helpless nce at the Mayor, who just awkwardly stood there and smiled, signaling him that everything will be okay here.


    Sighing deeply, Shi Meng then apologized to the European investors for the intrusion and smoothly excused himself.


    But, his attitude changed shortly thereafter and he barked impatiently at Tang Yue, "What do you want ? You couldn''t have waited ? You do realize that you gave absolutely no face to your father back there !"


    Without wasting any time, Tang Yue''s eyes immediately started tearing up and she gazed longingly, looking directly into his eyes. "I am so sorry Shi. I just thought you looked really sad and lonely back there. Is something bothering youtely?"
