Elder Sheng gave a happy smile "i am good Xiuying, How are you.. How is your work going on.?"

"Grandpa Sheng, i am also well and good. Its just i quite busy with my work.. After all i have just sign up in a new movie."

Practically no one likes her in Sheng Family except Elder Sheng.. But they can't behave rudely with her too..

After greeting the Elder Sheng, song Xiuying greeted rest of the people. Li Fan and her daughter song Mai and son in law Song Hufan too greeted everyone..

Afterwards everyone sat together in the living area..

Song Xiuying looked around, but she didn't find Ruihan anywhere.. With a sad expression she looked at her grandmother Li Fan, Her grandmother also understood why her granddaughter look sad, so she asked.. "where is Hanhan..? He is coming for the dinner right."

Elder madam Sheng ground her teeth and with a force smile she said.. "haann.. No Hanhan is not going to come.."

"what.? Why?" asked Li Fan.

"Ahh. Aunt Li you know he is quite busy with is work.. So he will not be able to attend tonight's dinner with us."

Yue ying and Sheng Ren were both looking at Song Xiuying..

When song Xiuying learned that Ruihan is not going to come tonight.. She gave an angry look but was soon changed into the sad one.. But it was noticed by Yue ying and Ren.

Elder Sheng knows that her sister came today with her family was for Ruihan.. But he can't control his eldest Grandson.

Song Xiuying sat near Yue ying and Ren.. She started talking to them.

"ohh.. Ren, when did you came, what about your study?"

Sheng Ren don't want to talk to her but she have to respect her.. "i just came yesterday.. And i have almost completed my studies."

Song Xiuying nodded her head..

After a while everyone stood for the dinner. All the people settled on the dinning table.. Usually Ren used to sit besides Ruihan or Ruan.. Or between them, but today song Xiuying took her sit. Despite Ruihan being absent still Xiuying sat on the chair beside the Ruihan's chair.

Sheng Huizong noticed it, and looked at her daughter, she gestured her daughter with her eyes to sit beside Ryan.

Everyone started there dinner.

Meanwhile at the restaurant after having her dinner Shiha left the place with Shanaya. Shanaya lives with Grandma Tang which was in the opposite direction of the shiha's Hotel.

"let me drop you to the imperial Hotel" said shanaya.

Shiha denied and said.. "no need. I want to have a walk, so you can leave."

Afterwards shiha stared walking towards the Imperial Hotel.

Soon after! Ruihan too left the place after having the dinner..

Shiha walk for a while after wards she took a taxi to the hotel.

Ruihan too reached the hotel..

Unknown to them fate was bringing them back together..

Shiha was waiting outside the elevator, the elevator stopped and shiha entered. Few other people also entered inside the elevator. Ruihan walk form the entrance, he too walk towards the elevator. He also entered in the same elevator as shiha but the elevator was with a huge space with a lot of people inside. Shiha was at the right corner behind the people. And Ruihan was the first from the entrance.. Gradually every one left the elevator at there respective floor. The presidential suite and the penthouse were at last. But both of them were busy with their phone.

The elevator stopped at the presidential suite floor. Ruihan left the elevator, the door was just getting close, shiha move her eyes from the cell phone to the entrance, from the crack of the door she saw a man's back.. But just for a second.

Shiha reached at her penthouse, she gets fresh and walk in the balcony with her laptop she has to attend the conference meeting.

Ruihan too gets fresh and move towards the balcony. He sat there on a comfortable chair with his laptop..

At Sheng mansion, after having the dinner every one sat in the living room..

Song Mai was talking to shen jing and Gu ming. While Xiuying was talking to Ren and Yue ying..

Song Xiuying indirectly many times asked to call Ruihan here but it was in vain..

Li Fan too was trying her hard to get as many as information of Ruihan.. But she also failed..

At last it was time to leave the place. Song Xiuying was reluctant to leave, but it was of no use as Ruihan was not going to come.

Afterwards they all left the Sheng mansion..

Shen jing and Gu ming didn't leave the place but they decide to stay here for two or three days.. There husbands decide to leave the place in morning.. So the went to have a rest in the guest room. Shen zen and Sheng Huizong and made the arrangements before hand.

Inside the car song Xiuying wore a sad expression.. "Grandma, look i cancelled my important gathering for today's dinner but it was of no use.. Ruihan didn't came. Are you sure you can make him marry me. You can control elder Sheng emotionally but what about the others.."

"my dear, don't be angry, you know the more angry you gets the early you will get aged.. Don't worry, you will become the daughter in law of Sheng family. Ok just trust me."

The couple sitting ahead was listening there conversation..

"mother, i think they don't look happy with this decision! I don't want my daughter to live with them." said song mia.

"Mia, don't worry, once she gets married, she will live with Ruihan not in the mansion. So it's ok."

Song Hufan shook his head.. He don't know what to say..

They reached at there place. Song Xiuying was totally spoiled by her parents and her grandmother.

Li Fan used to live in the separate house but after the death of Song Hufan's parents she moved in to live with her daughter.

Shiha was busy in her conference meeting.

Ruihan completed his work and when he looked upwards his sight fell on the shiha's balcony..

A girl was busy with her work.. She was looking seriously at the laptop.

From the look of it self Ruihan can say she was attending the meeting. But Ruihan was not able to see the face clearly..

He looked at her, she was looking more beautiful when the silver moon light fell on her face with a shadow of her hair. She was mesmerising.. After completing the meeting shiha stretch her arms and back.. Ruihan saw the milk white arms being raise in the air..

Shiha stood up and turn inside. Ruihan still fail to see the face but he was sure the girl might be beautiful.

Ruihan smiles at his behaviour.. He too turn around and went inside..
