You are invited to a rather lavish party. As the CEO of one of the largest companies in the country, it was expected of you to come as the other CEOs of other companies would also attend. You arrive at the party, and a faint thud behind you grabs your attention. You've dropped something.

Before you could pick it up, someone else did for you—it was Xiao—the CEO of a competing company. You were under the impression he loathed parties. He never attended any of them unless it was important. So why was he here?

"Move. You're wasting time," he says curtly.

You force a smile. Jerk.
