" Dad you know her?" Nian Fan ask him

" Sweetheart you know this woman?" Xiaolou asked Nian Gao suspiciously too

"Long enough to be accused of spying into your hotel" Lian answer him and laugh sarcastically

" What?!" as he look back to his daughter and wife, and the employees present inquiringly

" Dad this girl has been siting here for almost 30mins thankfully the receptionists noticed it and informed me immediately" Nian Fan narrated how Lian's has been so suspicious

" That is correct sir and we keep asking her politely but she keep saying that she's waiting for someone. Shes actually thinking that she can deceive us" as the receptionist added arrogantly showing how frustrated she is because of this uninvited guest

Every words that coming out from their mouth are making Nian Gao sweat coldly as he hardly rub his head

" Sweetheart do we have to call a police to chase her out?" Mrs Nian butted in since her husband not giving any reaction

"Enough all of you!" as Nian Gao snapped at them and heve turned to Lian embarrassingly "I'm so sorry for the misunderstanding Miss Battenberg we can talk this out in my office what do you say huh? " as Nian Gao look at her pleadingly urging her

"Sweetheart why are y-" Mrs Nian try to protest to her husband

" Enough ! do you know who she is? she's the architect that im talking about.."

"So? she's just an architect what so special about th-" Nian Fan cannot stop her self from commenting out

" i said enough!" as Nian Gao said angrily and highly aggregated because his family are making it worst

Xiaolou and Nian Fan want to complain more but theyve realize that Mr Nian Gao is seriously angry now. its really important to him since he snapped at them in front of many people just because of this girl..

like who the hell is this woman? what so special about her that the proud Nian Gao has to act this way.

"Im sorry again Miss Battenberg i hope you dont take it to the heart. its just a little misunderstanding it will never happen again i promise " as Nian Gao said apologizingly and turn to Xiaolou and and Nian Fan "Apologize to Miss Battenberg now!"

Nian Fan and Mrs Nian was forced to apologize because Nian Gao has been glaring at them

" Im sorry Miss Battenberg" Nian Fan said without sincerity

" I apologize Miss Battenberg it was a misunderstanding " as Mrs Nian apologize forcefully

" Sister Lian please forgive them it just a simple misunderstanding" Meilen plead for their behalf

theyve all turned to Lian who is still sitting without saying anything after some time. Lian finally give her attention to the people in front of her. who are so noisy..

" So..you actually know me Fing Meilen? i wonder why you did not say anything about it earlier?" as Lian slowly getting up and pick up her bag as sheve turned to Mrs Nian

" I cant believe that, the way you judge people is so poor Mrs Nian. I believe now in the saying that even if you cover the copper with gold it will still be a copper" Lian look at Mrs Nian from head to toe

"and you daughters bestfriend is Fing Meilen and your friends with Wang Mei. well i guess birds with the same feathers really flocks together" As she said the phrase in English with a British accent

" Sister your too much!" Fing Meilen try to interrupt her

" Why? They can judge me harshly without basis but i cannot state the truth? tell me Meilen is what im saying actually wrong? " as she ask Meilen challengingly. it shut Meilen up afraid that Lian will reveal more. Lian turned to the two receptionists and look at them coldly

"And you. tell how am i disturbing your guests, care to enlighten me. i can sue you for that you know? " Lian urge one of the receptionist to explain

"Beca-use.. be-cause" the receptionist stuttered trying to finding a reasonable excuse but failed because of Lian scrutinizing gaze.

"Explain it now!" Nian Gao shout at her angrily

"Because..because the male guests and employees are being destracted by keeps on looking at her" the receptionist had lose her arrogance earlier and her whole body is trembling due to fear "so the-

"Enough!" as Nian Gao angrily stop the receptionist "You two go to the Human Resource Dept after this and get your last pay your both fired! " and he shot an angry glance to his wife & daughter

"But sir-!!" "Si-"

" Get out of my face this instant!" the two receptionist hurriedly left like someone is chasing them

"oh really?" Lian suddenly mumbled cluelessly "i did not notice that..but its not my fault anyway i was born with this face" as lian title her head and play with her hair still thinking if she done something wrong

"pffft" The woman with the short hair who came with the Kangs suddenly laugh

"Sorry i cant stop my self. She is actually right, its not her fault so why blaming her? " while laughing. Lian look at her and look back at Nian Gao again

"Well by the way youve mentioned before Mr Nian that you daughter is capable" as she smirk at Nian Fan and she look at her from head to toe too" well.. i can see that but.."

" Im sorry i can no longer accept the project that youve offer Mr Nian i dont feel like doing it anymore" as she added lazily "It will not be a problem right? Im just a mere beautiful architect you can just find a new one"

"Miss Battenberg ple-" Niang Gao try to plead

"Contrary to what you have said Mrs Nian im not wasting my time im actualy busy so if you will excuse me. everyone " As she vow and look at each of them and turned her back walking to the exit of the hotel

" Miss Battenberg wait!" as Nian Gao try to stop her from leaving but Lian did not listen to him and keep walking and her assistant is already waiting at the entrance of the hotel.

"What have you done you two!" Nian Gao snapped after Lian left, his voice bombed inside the hotel totally forgotten that they are in an open place and they are infront of most wealthiest family in Country S the Kangs

" Do you know how hard it is just to secure an appointment ! Multi million dollar, multi million dollar international companies are lining up just to get an appointment..I've been so lucky and meet her accidentally and manage to secure an appointment but you all ruined it! " Nian Gao said sternly

"Not only that, youve actually offend her! do you have any idea how influencial she is. if our rival company manage to signed her with them. we are finish. Thanks to you two.-"

"Enough Gao Lin for the goddess' sake we are in a public !" Nian Jang his father stop him from ranting

"Talk to them when your not in the public anymore and you Fan-Fan and Xiaolou" he turned to Nian Fan who is crying while her mother, Mrs Nian and Meilen rubbing her back comforting her "do your best to seek an apology from Miss Battenberg since its your mess fix it! " as he said with finality

" Yes father!" Mrs Nian

" Yes Grandpa..i will try my best" as Fan Fan said while sobbing

"You should! because if Miss Battenberg try to take a revenge from you two and will inflected the Nian Family i dont know what can i do to you guys" as he turned to Kangs "Im sorry that you have to witness this. its just that im so frustrated. im so happy when she agreed to my proposal but its all got ruined because of some stupid misunderstanding *sigh* "

Nian Gao explain disappointedly..Mrs Nian together with her daughter and Fing Meilen excuse their selves.

While walking the Kangs from the entrance of the hotel where their cars are waiting suddenly elder Kang Zue ask Nian Gao "Is that little girl really that influencial ?" as he ask curiously

" Yes. definitely! if your familiar with Piston Empire the famous construction company in Germany whove build up a hundreds of houses, buildings for Princesses&Princes, famous Politicians and Hollywood Celebrities she is the person behind that. the CEO. She quite capable and famous for her unique ideas and skyscraper concept, its a pity that i can no longer have the project with her"
