The mysterious car protection unit Part 2

Part 17

/*unedited*/

The car shop of Angel Mei Ong has a wide space outside with many luxurious cars parked, while the spacious car display inside are filled with people wearing formal clothing. The people inside are currently looking at four figures talking to each other.

They are mostly attracted to the scene where a young man wearing expensive clothing kissing the back of the hand of a beautiful young lady.

Vincent Lee is really elated to see Melissa Krin at this place. This made his heart beat faster. Vincent Lee actually made an unconscious move when he kissed the back of Melissa Krin's hands. This is because he is used to doing this to almost all the girls he met.

When Melissa Krin woke up from her stupor and realized what happened, she immediately jumped back and stood behind Joe Wang.

She is like a frightened kitty showing a sour face. She never would have expected that Vincent Lee would be so bold as to kiss her hand. Although she knew of this tradition in some of the noble families and big clans in the city, she still could not get used to it.

"I… I'm sorry if I offended you, Miss Krin." Vincent Lee showed an apologetic expression on his face.

He truly likes Melissa Krin especially when they met for the first time.

But her reaction made Vincent Lee a little dissatisfied. As a young master and a self-made millionaire, he was not used to girls who play it hard to get. But from the pure expression on Melissa Krin's face, his dissatisfaction disappears. He truly didn't know why he felt this way and that he wanted to know the reason, hence he approached Melissa Krin.

When Vincent Lee was about to say something, he saw the young man shielding Melissa Krin lifts his hand and stopped him from talking.

"Mister… I think she is a little afraid of you now. Please excuse us." Joe Wang said as he held Melissa Krin's hand and walk calmly passing by the two men who have a look of disbelief in their eyes.

But as soon as Melissa Krin passes by Vincent Lee, he extended his arm to grab hers. Yet, before he can hold her soft hand, he suddenly found his hand unable to move.

This is because; Joe Wang has already caught on to what he is thinking and immediately grabs his hand.

With a whisper, Joe Wang said to Melissa Krin.

"Go, find big sister Angel… I'll take care of this."

Upon hearing the confident and assured tone of Joe Wang, Melissa Krin nods her head and walks directly towards the staff room.

"My friend, you seem to be too excessive today." Joe Wang said with a smile.

He didn't have a bad impression of Vincent Lee because when he saw his expression, he can see a man who is love-struck. Since Joe Wang can't see the infatuation or the perverted expression of someone in lust he can see that Vincent Lee has truly fallen in love at first sight.

"You… What is your relation with Miss Krin?" Vincent Lee asked with a tinge of jealousy in his tone.

As a love-struck person, Vincent Lee is now viewing Joe Wang as his rival in Melissa Krin's heart, hence he is now showing a little hostility towards him.

Joe Wang didn't answer but just turn his head towards the stage, this infuriates Vincent Lee but he held back his anger.

The man behind Vincent Lee is showing an indifferent expression at what is happening, because he is just here for one thing only, and that is the car protection unit.

He was informed by his close friends in their circle that someone is selling a total car protection unit. The claim was too absurd that he almost didn't believe it. But when they heard the name of the person who is trying to put this in the market, everyone could not help but pay attention.

The Ong clan is famous in Delta city, even in the whole country. They are one of the ten most influential and powerful families in Delta city. Angel Mei Ong, one of the princesses of the Ong clan was considered as a business genius when she was younger, yet falls in grace from the clan after she eloped with a man of unknown background.

Her family in Delta city tried to stop her and salvage the situation but to no avail. This is because she suddenly vanished from their radar that year and was never found again. But many have speculated that the family never went to search for her after what she had done. Hence after many years, her name was not heard of in high society.

But today, something has changed and the name of Angel Mei Ong suddenly echoed throughout the rich families of the city. They are interested to know how she was and if the business she is going to present is truly something that could catch the eyes of the rich and powerful young masters and mistresses of the city.

Behind the stage that has been set up, Angel Mei Ong is currently looking at the people present. Actually, she plans to just hide away in this simple car shop and never show her face to her family. This is because of the shame she has given them. She knows her mistake and is truly regretful. But she could not turn the hands of time and what was done is already done. Hence hiding and never involving her family to any scandal anymore is her only way of compensating for them.

But she didn't expect that something so good and revolutionary would end up in her lap. When she saw and experience it first hand, she knew that it would truly make her family proud. She didn't want this to be her ticket back because she didn't want to go back. She wants to show her family that she is doing fine, and with her own hand, she can make it.

"Huuu… I can do this… I can do this…" Melissa Krin muttered under her breath.

In her mind, she has already memorized the plan she had for the future of her company. She plans to do a hunger marketing strategy which would boost the product's value sky-high. Plus from what Joe Wang told her, he just plans to make five talismans a day. Hence she has no control over its production.

But, this is also something that would earn her more money.

What confuses her is the nonchalant attitude of Joe Wang towards this godly product. So, she decided to give him 10% of the stocks in her company. This way, he would not think that she is taking advantage of his generosity. She didn't know if he is just trying to test her with this. As a mysterious person, Angel Mei Ong has the foresight that the young man holds much more than one product. So she is willing to put her cards on him.

While peeping through the crack, Angel Mei Ong noticed that many prominent figures have already come. Then suddenly someone patted her back.

"Hah!... You… Melissa! Oh, you've come at last. Sorry I didn't welcome you at the gate. It's just that… I'm… I'm a little bit… scared." she said while hanging her head down.

Melissa Krin smiled and hugged Angel Mei Ong.

"I'm here for you. Even that kid Joe Wang is also with me." Melissa calmly patted Angel's back.

"You guys are truly kind to me. I won't forget this." Angel said in a low voice as a tear fell down the side of her eyes.

Due to the pressure and the worries she had plus the stress, Angel could not help but cry a little. But this is tears of happiness, she is happy that at last, some people are willing to help her. She is happy to find that Melissa Krin, is truly her best friend.

And so as the clock ticks by the time have come to start the event, a man walks in front of the rostrum.

He is the emcee and welcomed all the people who attended. Then he introduced the small car shop and the low-end to mid-end car products to the people.

After hearing the introduction, the people in the car shop frowns a bit. Although they can see that the cars are truly not high-end, but they never expected it to be like this since Angel Mei Ong came from the Ong family of Delta city.

In one corner, a woman who wore an elegant black and white dress showed a sad expression on her face while gripping tightly the small bag in her hands when she heard the murmuring of those around her. Although the woman looks middle-aged, one can see that her skin still looks soft and glossy. The wrinkles are lesser compared to those her age. And she has a great resemblance to Angel Mei Ong.

She is Angel Mei Ong's aunt, who secretly went to the venue just to see her beloved niece. She was very close to Angel Mei and watched her grew up, hence when she heard that her niece has appeared, she didn't think twice and immediately went just to take a peek at her beloved niece. Yet, she dared not approach as the family forbids it.

While the woman is anxiously waiting in the corner, the lights suddenly dimmed.

Through the silhouette, the people can see that a woman is walking forward while pushing a serving cart. When she reached the middle of the small stage, a beam of light illuminates the woman and the cart.

Then the woman removes the cloth covering the tray at the top of the cart.

Everyone saw two gray boxes of different sizes. They are labeled with an embossed number of 1 and 2.

When the people saw this, they began to whisper to each other.

"Is that the product?"

"Yeah, I think it is… I'm not too sure though."

"Well, if it really does what it's supposed to I don't mind buying one."

"Me too… If it is truly effective then, I would want to buy one."

As the people discussed, a beautiful woman calmly walks towards the rostrum. She wore a sleeveless closed necked knee-length light blue formal dress. This insinuates her almost perfect figure, with wide hips and a C-cup bosom along with her curves in the right places.

Angel Mei Ong's attractiveness and mature disposition made her very attractive while standing behind the rostrum.

Everyone turned silent upon seeing her.

While many men began to scrutinize her figure, many women had a look of disdain in their faces.

But she didn't mind them; her eyes caught the sight of the young man in the middle of the crowd which flashed a gentle smile at her. This made the anxious heart of Angel Mei Ong to calm down.

Then she looks at everyone and began to read her notes.

She introduced the product as a life-saving device with 100% assurance.

After her long speech, she showed a gentle smile to everyone and wanted to show a video demonstration.

But before she could push the button to play it on the screen, a person suddenly walks forward which caught the attention of the entire guest in the hall.
