Luciano was going gaga over here. She looked beautiful and being a model herself, she was attracting a lot of attention. Every passerby would look at her thinking that one of the models has come out to greet them or for promotion purposes. Luciano noticed it and stood beside her trying to show off everyone that she was with him. The show was about to start and everybody who was waiting outside started going inside towards the main venue when suddenly a Maybach came and stopped right in front of the venue. While everyone had to park their cars and walk to the main entrance, this car came and stopped in front of the entrance. The driver jumped out of the car and opened the door of the back seat.

To Feng Xinying's surprise, Xie Yuansheng got down from the car. He was looking dashing making all the girls in the crowd fluster about him. Feng Xinying didn't know where to look. She had just told him that she was unwell. Luciano's face had darkened. If he had a knife he would have slaughtered Xie Yuansheng.

Xie Yuansheng noticed Feng Xinying and without giving her a second look, he walked inside. The organizers came to receive him personally. Everyone present over there was highly impressed and the girls became excited. Feng Xinying walked sheepishly inside with Luciano. She was feeling guilty and the fact that Xie Yuansheng didn't say a word to her made her feel so small in her own esteem that she didn't know how to react to that. Seeing that she was nervous, Luciano held her hand to calm her but she withdrew her hand from his, much to his disdain.

She looked ahead to find Xie Yuansheng, but he was not visible. The organizers had taken him ahead. She felt at a loss. Although she went to be seated with Luciano, her eyes wandered everywhere to get a glimpse of Xie Yuansheng. When they came near their seat, she realized that they were in the second row. She asked Luciano, "You said that we will be seated in the first row."

"Actually I had bought the VIP seat tickets but I didn't know that there would be a VVIP category also," he replied looking foolish.

Feng Xinying didn't say anything even though she was feeling dejected. She was feeling bad more because she couldn't find Xie Yuansheng rather than the fact that she was sitting in the second row. While all the rows were getting filled slowly, the first row was still empty.

People started asking, "Who will come to occupy the VVIP row?"

"Perhaps the fashion designer will come and sit."

While Feng Xinying was hearing all the gossip, she noticed that Xie Yuansheng came and sat on a seat in the first row royally. He sat right in front of her. Feng Xinying was flustered. Her eyes had been searching for him, and he came and sat right in front of her. At the same time Luciano was feeling pathetic. Oh what he could do to kill the man in the front row.

Just before the show started, the organizer came running to Feng Xinying and whispered in her ears, "Madam, you are invited to sit in front by the CEO of the Feng Conglomerate, Mr. Xie Yuansheng. Could you please do the honor?"

A smile played on Feng Xinying's lips when she heard it and she sprang up from her seat thanking the organizer. Without even saying as much as goodbye to Luciano, she made her way out of the second row and went to sit near Xie Yuansheng. In her excitement, she kept smiling, which increased from ear to ear as soon as she came and sat beside him.

Xie Yuansheng looked at her without any expression and then said, "If you wanted to see the fashion show, you could have asked me."

Feng Xinying's smile disappeared immediately. She lowered her head and pursed her lips. "Sorry…" she said.

"I have bought the entire VVIP row for us to see the ramp," he said and brought his hand over hers. "Don't be sorry," he whispered as he squeezed her hand. She didn't remove her hand. She was surprised that she liked his touch and the fact that he squeezed her hand made her feel secure. Something wasn't right because right now, her blood was flowing to places she couldn't understand.

On the back seat Luciano was fretting and fuming. He bent a little forward towards Feng Xinying and said in a low voice, "Xinying, it is better view from the second row…" But Feng Xinying ignored him.

Xie Yuansheng brought his hand behind her and kept it on her chair to block Luciano. The ramp walk began and soon all the models started flaunting Ralph's latest collections. Feng Xinying was mesmerized by it, as Xie Yuansheng only watched her. Slowly he bent towards her and asked, "Do you want to start you fashion line?"

Feng Xinying's face broke into a smile again as she looked at him excitedly. Seeing her elated, Xie Yuansheng also smiled back at her. Softly, he stroked her hands and was awarded by a pink blush, which was visible as the dim lights fell her. Without realizing what he was doing, he brought his hand on her cheek and stroked it. She looked at him intensely and didn't stop him.

Suddenly a model in skimpy dress wearing a button less shirt with a trouser, her breasts exposed, came and sat right on Xie Yuansheng's lap breaking their beautiful moment. Both of them were so surprised that the audience broke into laughter. More than Xie Yuansheng, it was Feng Xinying who started feeling insecure, afraid, anxious and at a loss. She felt as though something of great personal value was being raided. That was her place! "What am I thinking?" she thought and tried to fight that feeling of envy but she gave up in the end. "That is my place!"

She hated the model's guts and stared at her harshly. In her frenzy, she tried to pull the model out of his lap but the model wouldn't budge. Agitated, she pinched the model on her leg, making her jump out of his lap in an instant.
