The trio was welcomed by the staff. The manager greeted them. Soon the trio took the elevator and went to the top floor where the party was held.

They entered the hall. Everyone welcomed Mr.Rhodes like always and suddenly their breath was stuck in their lungs as they saw who was coming behind him.

Li Qiang and Elsa were coming in from the door. They felt like both God and Goddess cam from the heaven to show them this scene. All the men were bewildered from the beauty and girls were feeling like their eyes were blessed to this man.

As they walk through the long room Li Qiang suddenly felt something warm grabbed his hand. His eyes went down. Seeing what was holding his hand he couldn't let himself escape a small smile. He saw Elsa was holding his hand and she was shivering because for nervousness. He let her hold his hand and continued walking.

In the stage, a man came in front of the podium and started addressing the guest and stated a lively chat with all. While below the stage Li Qiang was brewing with happiness feeling her girl holding his.

He thought he should probably initiate a chat. He said in his low voice

He said "Miss Elsa" close to her neck. Hearing his voice close to her neck and feeling his warm breath near her neck. She felt a chill running through her body.

"Y-Yes Mr.Li" she replied stuttering.

"Miss Elsa is this your first time coming to a party like this. She froze hearing his question. She thought how did he know. Did he investigate on me or something else? As she racked her brain for the perfect reply she started shaking again from his question. Watching her shaking Li Qiang got his answer. But he thought why was it her first time as it was normal for an heir to attends such parties from early life. But why not her. As he was thinking this he patiently waited for her reply and started gazing her. Elsa finally got her answer and confidently said

"No Mr.Li it's not"

And she was freeing her hand from Li Qiang firmly hold her hand and not even left a space to free her. Li Qiang said "It's okay Miss Elsa if this is your first time it' only natural to be nervous. I was also nervous when it was my first time.

Elsa thought why he was doing this. Don't he fear of creating misunderstanding to other people and created rumors? But Elsa felt safe and calm as he was holding her hands. She let him continued holding his hand for the whole party.

As the party ended they both started leaving the hall and moving towards their car. On the way, Li Qiang heard the rumor of them to be husband and wife. He hurriedly took Elsa out of the hotel and didn't give her chance to hear the rumor. He took her toward the parking lot. As they move towards the car Elsa slipped his hand through him and said: "Thank you Mr.Li for earlier".

Li Qiang who was feeling happy and said "It's okay Miss Elsa.let me drop you at your house." making a puppy face.

Seeing his face she didn't reject him and went towards the car together.

Li Qiang gently opened the back door of the car like a prince. She was moved his small gesture.

"Oh" She couldn't help herself feeling some what disappointed hearing his reply.

Sensing her disappointment Li Qiang said "Miss Elsa here take my card you can always call me if you need something. I will always be happy to help you ." he said caringly.

Hearing such caring words Elsa flushed and her face went red.

While in the front seat Secretary Kim skipped his one beat. he never saw his boos talking like this with agirl. And offering his number to her. He thought that the sun has probably come from the west today.

Li Qiang didn't say anything else and prayed that his journey should never end.B ut deep in the heart, he knew he has to let go of her for now. As she didn't know that he loved her.

Both felt like the time was passing by quickly.
