"I wonder what would happen to the Lian Industry, since Lian Chen went to prison?"

The man with an outstanding look asked curiously. There is a cigarette on his fingers and a wine glass on his opposite hand. He was obviously a second generation young master, but his seriousness and maturity made other think that he was older than his age.

Opposite to him was also a handsome man but with an entirely different gentle face, an angel like appearance with a cunningly motives. The small piercing on his lips shone brightly against the dim light, his eyes were squinted and there is a mischievous smile on his lips.

"When did you learn to talk about other's affair, Yan-ge? I didn't know you were this interested in the Lian Industry."

Chu Yan sneered and swallowed the wine in one gulped, "It just a waste. Lian Industry was standing tall for several years and with just one swift… it's gone."

Li Wenchao laughed lightly, "Well, that's what they get when they tried to interfere so much."

Chu Yan didn't give a response and just enjoyed his wine silently.

Several people are watching the pair and wanted to strike some conversation. But the coldness and the indifference of Chu Yan's made them back out in last second.

Who doesn't know his identity?

Tonight was the welcoming party of the lost son of the Yan family. It was a cocktail party oriented towards the upper class. The meaning was very obvious, it was a declaration of the lost heir of the Yan family.

The Yan family was one of the noble family with high status in the society, and being invited by the party, it was an opportunity for everyone.

Everyone dresses up more sexily, gorgeously, handsomely and exquisitely. The exotic flowers which symbolizes wealth and money were only used as a decoration in the venue, the garden of the mansion was designed perfectly for party, the bright light almost made people blind, but this didn't stop them from socializing.

A typical high society.

It's a good place for businessmen to talk about business, but it was also a good opportunity for several celebrities with hidden motives to hook up with golden thighs.

Chu Yan looked up and saw countless beauties standing from a far. He frowned and looked away. He was not interest with these vases who only need to rely on their faces to climb up. But his friend was different, he was already hugging two beauties in his arms.

Li Wenchao chuckled at his reaction, "Old Chu, you will make people think that we are a generation apart, when in fact, you are just a year older from me."

Chu Yan raised his eyebrow and didn't bother to give him a response.

"Why don't you try embracing beauties? Do you have a problem there?"

"I'm not interested."

Li Wenchao rolled his eyes and didn't give him a suggestion again. He was twenty-seven this year, and this age was where most people played so much. Li Wenchao couldn't understand his friend's abnormality, it was obvious that he doesn't have erectile dysfunctional, but his friend didn't have any desire. Is he still a normal man?

"Wenchao, Chu Yan."

They both looked up and saw a man with a calm face. He was tall, almost the same height as them, but his calmness was engraved into his bones, making his every move define and moderate.

Li Wenchao smiled, "Yan Li, I thought you already forgot about your friends." But his smile froze when the man moves away and revealed a figure behind his back.

"Brother Li, Brother Chu." The youth greeted softly.

Li Wenchao smile widened, he removed his arms from the two beauties and stared at the young man with mere interest.

"You are also here, Xiao Shen."

The juvenile nodded lightly. His appearance was very soft and fragile, like a glass that needed to be taken care of. His skin was pale against the darkness and the always pure eyes were shining so brightly. Although, he was tall, he appeared delicate and lovely.

Yan Li frowned about his friend's sudden approach and gave him a cold glare. Li Wenchao chuckled and gestured a surrender of hands, returning to his seat.

Chu Yan stared at the young man and looked away. Yan Li bowed down and whispered in his brother's ears.

"Go play with your friends, I will talk to them."

Yan Shen nodded and mouthed, 'goodbye.'

Yan Li took the vacant seat beside Chu Yan and poured a wine for himself. He massaged the back of his neck and soothed his tiredness.

Li Wenchao glance at him, "So, Mr. Yan wanted Yan Shen to inherit the Yan Entertainment? What about you?"

"I'm not interested in the company, besides I am just an adopted child, what qualification do I have to compete with Xiao Shen?" Yan Li replied firmly.

Li Wenchao made the two beauties beside him leave and turned into a serious mode, while Chu Yan remained silent.

"I just can't believe that the little artist in your company would turn out to be the little heir of your family, just great."

"I have already doubts in the beginning. Xiao Shen looked so much like mother, but I couldn't disclose his matter for the time being since I wasn't certain."

Li Wenchao nodded and thought for a while, "It's just a pity for Lian Chen to interfere in your affairs."

Mentioning his name, there is a coldness in Yan Li's eyes. "He deserves it. Xiao Shen was no background that time, and he chose to follow his girlfriend to bully him? It's unacceptable."

Chu Yan deliberately intruded into their conversation, "Uncle Lian couldn't take the result lightly and died, I just guess it was too much punishment."

Yan Li sharpened his gaze, "Didn't you also participate in this? Don't play innocent this time, Chu Yan."

Seeing the heated tension, Li Wenchao interrupt, "Hey, hey, don't pick a fight. Old Chu was just sad for his friend's downfall."

Yan Li sneered, and Chu Yan went silent.

The four of them, including Lian Chen were childhood friends. It's just that Chu Yan and Lian Chen were closer, so the downfall of Lian Industry also made an impact to Chu Yan, even if he decided to help Yan Li in their dispute.

Li Wenchao thought something, "Since Lian Chen went to prison, what would happen to the Lian Industry?"

"Isn't obvious? Without Lian Chen, it's on its way to bankruptcy." Yan Li responded.

"But, Lian Chen still have a younger brother, right?"

Yan Li was silent while on the other hand, Chu Yan furrowed his eyebrows. Li Wenchao loosened his tie and was uncomfortable for a while.

They actually forget that Lian Chen had a younger sibling. In fact, Lian Chen's younger brother stayed abroad most of the time, they could only see him at various occasions. The impression was that of a transparent person, not noticeable and visible in their eyes. Li Wenchao could still remember a long time ago that without the introduction of Lian Chen, he wouldn't believe that the young man was his brother. His face was too common while Lian Chen was handsome and striking, he was ordinary and average, he was also timid and cowardly. Li Wenchao had long since forgotten about him.

Chu Yan groaned and folded his sleeves on his arms. The drunkenness on his face was visible, and few of the onlookers blushed at this scene. He closed his eyes and thought for a while. His friend only request was to watch his younger brother for him.

Chu Yan was rich, and it's not a problem to support a person, and with their friendship, he would obviously agree to that request. It's just that he was indifferent, he doesn't like the approach of everyone and if his so-called brother would give him a headache, he could only be heartless.

Although he was cold, he wasn't naive in this field. He long knew that there are several artists who fell for their sponsors, he doesn't like that and if possible, he wants to avoid seeing this so-called brother and just support him silently.
