She looked at the tallnky man sitting on the chief guest chair. The man had a natural air of authority in his demeanor. A polite and professional smile spread over her face. "Mr. Hu,dies and gentlemen, sorry for beingte."


    Chris Hu was the secretary of the capitalmittee of A Country. He was a man of low profile and was seldom seen in public. This time he was invited to a banquet to celebrate andunch the development of a new real estate project proposed by a number of CEOs from different corporations.


    Chris Hu was a close friend of the former acting CEO of the SL group. L had seen him several times before but they didn''t speak that much.


    Chris nodded at the elegant-looking L and calmly said, "It''s good to see you. Sit down please, Ms. Li. Let''s start the proceedings."


    Another female CEO from A Country, Joyce Mu of CP Capitals heard the words and emitted a loudugh. She was a woman in herte thirties and was known for her forceful determination in the business.


    L only took up her responsibility as the acting CEO recently, but her name had quickly spread all over A Country. Almost everyone knew about her!


    Joyce looked at L intently and said, "Ms. Li, you are indeed runningte. How about drinking three shots of vodka as a punishment?"


    L Li is indeed a name with a troublesome nature. She was first caught up in love scandals with Ynda and Harry. Recently, she was the center of attention of a kidnapping scheme. Not to mention the explosion happened in her backyard that led to the death of multiple people. Almost everyone in A Country learned about her and her name had been an object for gossip and rumors since then.


    L Li, what a disputable person! Some people attested that she was a nice woman, while some people held the utterly opposite belief...


    Tonight might be good chance for everyone to really know her!


    On hearing Joyce''s words, L gave her a sophisticated smile and poured herself a shot of vodka. This amazed everyone in the room. "Ms. Mu, of course I shall take the punishment. It is my fault for runningte. I won''t make any excuses. Therefore, I will punish myself with these. I hope no one will have any bad feelings about me anymore. Thank you very much!"


    She was straightforward! And humble! This was the first real impression she gave to them.


    First shot went down. She showed everyone the bottom of the ss. She drank a second ss. Her face turned a little bit reddish. And finally, she managed to drink the third shot of vodka. She mai


    Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.


    "You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.


    "You! Give thatnd to my family, or I won''t agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.


    "Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.


    far. L was pissed off and refused to be polite with him anymore!


    L''s words made the situation worse. Danny shamelessly moved his arm from the chair and onto her shoulder. Everyone was shocked. He had gone too far!


    Joyce spoke again, and this time she sounded quite serious, "Mr. Fang, tonight is just a casual dinner gathering. We are supposed to have fun. You should try to behave yourself!"


    The whole SL group belonged to Harry Si. Therefore, L might well be his woman.


    He should not cross L. As an old friend of Danny, Joyce felt obliged to warn him in advance as Harry Si was a tough man to deal with!


    Many people learned about Harry''s power from the recent kidnapping. Although the incident was covered up and hid from the media, well-connected people still got the news from trusted channels.


    Danny was looking forward to getting L drunk so that he could sleep with her. Hepletely ignored Joyce''s warning.


    "Miss Li, you are too young to be the acting CEO of SL group. I bet you have made a lot of effort to get the position!" He was implying something behind the lines and everyone could tell that.


    L smiled. She shook away Danny''s arm, stood and took the ss from his hand.


    Danny was pleased to see her epting the ss. He finally got to her! Oh, this would be a night of pleasure!


    However, to everyone''s surprise, L poured the alcohol on Danny''s head!


    Ignoring Danny''s yelling, she cleared her throat and said to him word by word, "I got the position of the acting CEO because of my hard work! You and your numerous love scandals! I suppose you already had STD! So! Shameless!" With that, L had her head up high and walked away.
