Chapter 378: Chapter 378 Overbearing Female CEO VS Ordinary Xiao Bai Flower (Extra) Chapter 378: Chapter 378 Overbearing Female CEO VS Ordinary Xiao Bai Flower (Extra) Ling Yi was a new elite in the business world of A City, having built a substantial company from scratch, and even the older generation had to admit that he was a formidable young man.

However, it was only this year that he barely qualified to receive an invitation from the Xia Family.

Today was the tenth birthday banquet of the Fourth Master of the Xia Family’s little princess.

Ling Yi had never met this Fourth Master of the Xia Family, but he had heard of his reputation more than once.

No matter who mentioned this name, they always added a word of caution: this was a man who must not be provoked.

Ling Yi was very curious about him. He had come from nothing to where he was now, so naturally, his emotional intelligence was high, and he was not a fool who thought he was invincible just because he had achieved some success.

A person revered by everyone was not someone he, at least not the present him, could afford to provoke.

Ling Yi, holding a glass of wine, stood discreetly in a corner, smiling in response whenever someone came to toast him, not allowing anyone to find a single fault.

Then, he saw the little girl.

The Xia Family’s little princess was wearing a white high-waisted princess dress, and Ling Yi noticed at a glance that the fragmented diamond tiara on her head was made of real diamonds.

This little girl was exceedingly beautiful.

Her features were delicate, dressed in a white fluffy dress, she looked clean and beautiful like an angel. Although she was only ten, it was not hard to see that she would grow up to be an exceptionally beautiful woman.

Ling Yi looked at the noblewoman holding the little princess’s hand.

Seeing her, he understood from whom the little girl had inherited her beauty.

Without a doubt, this was her mother, Madam of Fourth Master Xia, and the CEO of Long’s.

The woman who had single-handedly led Long’s to prosperity was also a legendary figure in the business world of A City, and indeed, she had always been Ling Yi’s idol.

Time seemed to have favored her specially. A woman in her late thirties, nearly forty, walking under the lights in a gown, showing no signs of aging.

That legendary Fourth Master, Ling Yi had not seen.

How come? He didn’t even attend his daughter’s birthday banquet?

Recalling those rumors about Fourth Master Xia’s…extreme…devotion to his wife, Ling Yi felt disappointed: these were just rumors after all. Indeed, in ordinary families such sightings were rare, let alone in affluent circles where fairy-tale-like love hardly existed.

As he was lost in thought, unsure where his disappointment stemmed from, he saw the little girl as if she had seen something, her eyes lit up, and she let go of her mother’s hand and ran towards a certain direction.

Then, Ling Yi saw a tall man bend down and pick up the princess who had rushed toward him.

In her father’s arms, the little girl seemed less restrained than she was with her mother, giggling loudly, her laughter carrying far.

Ling Yi observed the man, this was Fourth Master Xia?

He had originally thought that the underworld emperor of A City would be a pot-bellied man, even sporting a goatee.

The man in front of him, dressed impeccably in a black suit, his hair neatly arranged, and his clean, handsome features becoming more captivating with age.

Only when he smiled, the fine lines at the corners of his eyes revealed his age, but they also added a charm bestowed by time to the man.

This man, who could easily claim he was a celebrity model without anyone doubting him, was actually the renowned Fourth Master Xia?

He watched as Fourth Master Xia, holding his daughter, walked over to his wife and naturally kissed her on the cheek in full view of everyone. They said something that made the princess in his arms giggle incessantly.

The genuine reactions of a child can’t be faked. Only a child raised in the protective embrace of her parents, sweet as honey, could have such an unclouded smile.

Perhaps, in this world, there really is love as beautiful as a fairy tale.
