One day,I was in my office signing some doc.u.ments when I got a call from my father's butler.

Butler Zhu told me that my father wanted me to come to the Lie's family manor.My father had some urgent issues to discuss with me.

I quickly left the doc.u.ments to Xu Feng.He could handle that much work.

Getting to the lobby of the building my driver was already on stand-by to open the door of the car for me.

Our ride from Empire building to the Lie's family manor was just fifteen minutes ride.

Entering the main building I was warmly welcomed by the servants.

Butler Zhu guided me to the dinning room where my father was already waiting for my arrival.

There were varieties of dishes on the dinning table.Just by glaring at the table I could tell that he had ordered the chefs to cook all my favourite dishes.My father Master Lie hou just celebrated his seventy years birthday three months ago.

He was still looking quite young for his age.Those who don't know his actual age might assume that he is still in his early fifty.He was still handsome in his own way.

He handed over his position as the CEO of Empire Corporation three years ago.

My father and I had a really close relationship.Father and daughter unique relationship.

I walked a few steps closer to him and bent down to hug him,"Father,I hope you are alright,I have missed you".There are two people that I'm really close to,those two people are my dearest father and my best friend Xiao Bai.

My father jokingly replied as though he was displeased,"My unfilial daughter has finally accept to visit me today".I was guilty of what my father just said.He had sent me several invitations to grace him a visit but I couldn't make time to pay him a visit because I had loans of work to handle in the office.

"I'm sorry for that but I was preoccupied with work,I don't even have time for myself father".She pretended as though she was offended.

Master Lie knew the fact that his daughter schedule was quite hectic since he had being keeping a close watch on her.He urged her to seat,"Ge'er,I believe you so you can have your seat now.I have ordered the chefs to prepare all your favourite dishes,I can see that you have become thinner just within the period of three months".

She obediently sat down and they started eating while discussing about work.

After eating to her satisfaction both father and daughter moved to the sitting room to continue their conversation.

Master Lie brought up the issue of her marriage up,"Ge'er!when are you gonna get married so that you will give me grandchildren?The president even called to discuss how displeased he was with your rejection of his marriage proposal".

Lie Ruge was having an headache due to this marriage proposal issue,"Father I'm not yet ready for marriage.I have the whole of Empire group and other businesses under the Lie's family name to cater for,so how can I have time to leisurely get married?".

Her father was displeased with her words,"But your uncle and aunts are there to give you the necessary assistance to manage the company?".

Just the mention of her uncle and aunts name made her flare up in a rage,"The two of us are clearly aware that my uncle and aunts are up to no good.They are just greedy for fame and wealth.They don't care about the company's welfare at all so how could you tell me to leave the company to their care?".

Her Father noticed that she was pissed off so he decided to appease her,"Ge'er,you are already twenty-four this year,you have never being in any relationship before not to talk about getting married at the moment.Girls your age are already in a serious relationship or married,I'm not comparing you to them because I know I'm at fault for handing the company over to you at such a young age but you can't blame me for that right?".She knew that her father handing over the CEO position to her was due to the surgery he had to undergo and he could not leave the position vacant for such a long time.At that time when he handed over the company to her,she had just newly returned from acquiring her university education.

Her father was left with no choice but to pass over the position to her,so how can she blame her dad for that,"Father how can I ever blame you for that,I know that you want the best for me but marriage is not what I really want to achieve just yet.....".

"Then when are you gonna be ready Ge'er?Are you gonna be ready when I am dead?"he interrupted her.Her father's expression looks painful.
