After the 43-year-old Richard Li and the 20-year-old Isabella Leong kept the birth of their son in April this year a secret, Isabella went back to Hong Kong bringing her son, Ethan Li, to meet his grandfather, Li Ka Shing, as ordered a few days ago. It is rumored that there was a 100-day-old banquet held for Li's grandson on 3 consecutive days on July 9-11, and some of the city's famous people like Stanley Ho and his second wife Lam Wan Ying, and Mr. Tsang Yam Pui and his wife were seen to attend the banquet, but Isabella and her son didn't appear so as not to disclose their whereabouts. After the party finished, on July 12, Li Ka Shing and his eldest son and grandson, Victor Li and Michael Li respectively, went sailing to celebrate it. It is obvious how Ethan Li is favored by his grandfather.
It is reported that Li Ka Shing, who will celebrate his birthday on July 28, will not steal his grandson's limelight. There will only be a banquet on the noon of his birthday at the Happy Valley Clubhouse, while on the night banquet, there will be about 30 guests who will attend it, and most of them are senior officials and celebrities.
For the sake of privacy, Richard Li strictly forbade his guests to take pictures when his son's banquet was held, and when he left, there were at least 4 similar cars seen in leading the way. Because they found out that there were reporters wanting to have an interview, they changed the venue for the banquet on the next day. When the 100-day-old banquet was held, Li Ka Shing didn't play golf at Deepwater Bay golf course as usual. In the afternoon of July 11, he was spotted going out while wearing a suit, and once his bodyguards noticed that there were reporters, they immediately sent out a motorcycle to halt the reporters' cars. Li went home at about 7pm on that day.
It is heard that Ethan Li is the bridge between his grandfather and father, as his existence made them able to mend their father and son relationship, no wonders Li Ka Shing dotes on this grandson of his.
