Chapter 70 Hook up with Mr. President
The decoration of Thomas''s vi was quite simple. Walls were stuck with pattern wallpaper in light
ck and white. Most furniture was in ck, gray and white.
In the spacious drawing room, there was a clothes stand hanging with a dozen of expensive formal
dresses. Beside the clothes stand were several men dressing up in unique style. They were waiting for
Thomas''smand. On seeing Ling in, Thomas who was sitting on the sofa leisurely with a
Pad in the hands stood up to wee her at once.
"L,e here and pick dresses." Thomas led her to the clothes stand.
By the touch of it, L could tell that those dresses were quality. The dresses she wore for parties
before were fancy enough, but those in front of her at that time were even more exquisite.
Lpared those beautiful dresses in different colors carefully and picked two atst, one in pure
white, the other one in hot red.
"Go to the room to the right upstairs and make up. I will await you here." Then Thomas turned to
servants and asked them to lead L upstairs.
L nodded and followed servants upstairs.
"This room should be Thomas''s bedroom." L thought. The decoration was in the same style as the
drawing room. The closet and sofa are both in white. On the bed was a neatly folded creamy-white
nket.
Since there was no dresser avable in Thomas''s room, L sat at a table nearby.
Then three styling designers came to her soon after she sat down, and started to discuss what color of
lipstick and eye shadow they were gonna use to match L''s dress.
Two hourster.
L in a hot red dress got in Thomas''s car heading to the charity g.
On the first floor of Telles Hotel.
A charity g held by the government of both D City and A Country was about to begin.
Hotel staff members were busy making the final preparation to make this party perfect, cause all guests
invited were either super rich or famous in D City and A Country. Not only business tycoons, super
stars but also the President of A Country would attend.
Thus all waiters serving tonight were picked from experienced staff and went through demanding
training and times of skill assessment.
Just after 7 p.m., pairs of meticulously dressed men and women arrived at the hotel sessively. All
waiters were on the ball at once. They were requested to provide guests with best service.
Several minutester, a man and a woman stepped into the hotel and drew all people''s attention.
The woman was in a long purple tee dress with delicate make-up on the face. Her hair was rolled up
into a bun. All those made her noble and graceful.
And the man arm in arm with her was in a fancy suit and a pair of shining leather shoes. He looked cool
and arrogant.
"Ynda and Harry make a perfect match!"
"Yes, I think so, the prince and the princess. Allizen are talking about them recently. I guess that
they are going to get married."
"Wow, I am so envious of Ynda, dating with the prince charming!"
"God. I get no chance..."
Seeing Harrying in, a man from the organizing party came up at once to wee him, "Good
evening, Mr. Si and Miss Mo. Wee!"
Whatever Harry and Ynda did, there were always eyes staring at them with interest, envy or
something else. They nodded at that man out of courtesy and then be led to the VIP section.
Harry asked Ynda to sit down for a rest and then went to other guests for social engagement.
Looking at the handsome Harry who was talking with business tycoons and famous stars with ease,
Ynda smiled out of happiness.
"L, you see? All people think I am the one who matches Harry best. Where are you hiding now?"
She thought with a sneer.
Several minutester, a low but audible voice shifted all guests'' attention to the door, "The President of
A Country ising!"
Hearing that, Ynda who was chatting with a rich woman stood up immediately to show her respect to
the President.
The hotel door was opened slowly. Then a woman in a red dress, arm in arm with a man in a ck suit,
showed up.
Actually many guests knew this woman. Her long ck hair was ited into aplicated but good-
looking braid, hanging down on her bare fair back.

Her light and delicate make-up plus her bright smile made her attractive. In that long red diamond-
decorated dress, she looked more than gorgeous. Everybody could tell that twinkling dress was pricey.
The ck crystal high heels really suited her. Arm in arm with a noble man, she elegantly walked into
the hotel hall.
"She is so beautiful! Who is she?"
"Is that L Li? The princess of the bankrupt Li Group? When did she hook up with the President of A
Country?"
"L Li? What a beauty she has turned into!"
...
Seeing L was with Thomas, Harry clutched the wine ss in his hand.
He was in rage, as L held another man''s arm and showed up in public!
How dare you! L Li!
Thomas led L to a small stage. Then he looked down at the guests under the stage. He saw Harry
of course, but he chose to ignore Harry''s angry stare. "Thank all of you for attending this charity
g...." He made a brief opening speech in a gentle voice.
Looking at the woman who was holding the President''s arm with a bright smile on stage, Ynda
clenched her fists out of rage.
"L Li, when did you hook up with the President? It seemed I underestimated you before! You have
predicted Harry is about to dump you, so you go to seduce the President first?" Ynda thought. She
was full of anger at that moment.
Harry was looking at his mobile phone when Ynda came to him. She was relieved
Cause Harry was calm and didn''t seem to notice L.
All guests went back to their seats after Thomas''s speech. The auction would start soon.
The first item for auction was a bracelet with kaites. It belonged to a Queen of the United Kingdom.
The opening bid was RMB 100, 000. It was the mayor of D City finally won it with the bid of RMB 1
million. The mayor sent this bracelet to his wife then.
Seeing that, many guests started to tter the mayor and praise him for his deep love for his wife.
When the second item was disyed, L''s eyes shed with surprise. She was sure that it was
exactly the ink wash painting on the wall of Li vi''s living room cause it was herself who framed it.
That painting wasn''t drawn by any famous painter, but by her deceased grandmother.
"This is an ink wash painting by the deceased Catherine Rong. The starting price is RMB 50, 000."
Thomas knew L wanted that painting cause she had been staring at it since it was disyed on the
stage.
"One hundred thousand." It was Harry started the first bid leisurely.
"Two hundred thousand." It was Thomas this time who bid in a deep but elegant voice.
"Five hundred thousand." Harry, who had been watching his mobile phone in the hands, bid without
looking up.
"One million." That was apetition between two powerful men. All guests were astonished by their
bid and burst into an uproar.
That painting wasn''t worth RMB one million at all, but the bid was continuing on.
"Two million." Hearing Harry''s bid, Ynda secretly plucked Harry''s sleeve to remind him that the
painting wasn''t worth that much money.
"Five million." Tommy followed without any hesitation.
"Ten million." Harry kept up with Thomas''s bid. Hearing Harry''s bid, guests seemed to be more excited
and also confused. They all could tell that Harry and Thomas werepeting for something.
Their discussion became more and more heated. "What on earth Mr. Si and President Herren are
fighting for?"
Minutester, a voice arose and shocked almost everyone, "Twenty million." L tugged at Thomas''s
sleeve slightly and whispered," This painting is not worth so much."
