Chapter 1019 – Set You Up On Blind Dates.
Shin You Jun's lips turned in a pout as folding his arms over his chest, he accused, "You deliberately did that? There was no sense of gratitude in you, right?" He might have believed her at first but now seeing her laughter like that, he has better understood her intentions.
Li Xue's laughter paused when heard him say that. Still keeping a smile on her face, she shook her head. "Haha … I didn't have the plans before but seeing you so excited for it, I cannot take the little boy's candy away So here, 'thank you' for standing up for me two times in the same day." She said. Though she wanted to tease the boy, seeing him standing biasedly on her side has truly moved her heart.
Hearing her finally say it with such ease, for a moment You Jun was dumbfounded. He was expecting it to come but not with such easy and such calm expressions of the woman. Seeing her laugh earlier he really felt that other than making fun of him, she hasn't got any other intention.
Rubbing the back of his neck with some bashfulness, his lips curled up on the corners with some shyness. "I didn't want to accept your fake thank you, but since you have already said it I will accept. Anyway, that was what I should have done because in some way or the other you have become my elder sister which I couldn't return." He said and his tone was one like the adult who was trying his best to be modest but was failing terribly.
Li Xue wanted to laugh again but not wanting to embarrass him more, she restrained herself. Reaching out his head instead, she ruffled his hair, "Who said that you have the compulsion? You are still young, so you don't have to."
"Even young I am still your brother. In every situation you will get bullied, I will be there to support you." On an impulse of the moment, the young prince said out loud, but when realized his words, he sighed internally before correcting, "I mean that's what Ma has taught me since young. Don't say you want to purposely make me look bad in front of her."
He said and Li Xue didn't want to drag more. Moreover, she also doesn't want to restrict him. Since he has started taking her as his sister, she doesn't want him to feel like the feelings and emotions were just one way. Since she was being treated well, she would also treat them well.
"Fine, I won't stop you then. Just always remember the decent code of etiquette that you should follow." She said and the boy nodded.
Shin You Jun, himself, haven't realized but from the very first day, he has been very obedient to Li Xue. Her words and suggestion have always put a great imprint on his thoughts, resulting in making him more serious and mature in his lifestyle.
"By the way, Elder Sister, don't you feel you should be a little more careful with that woman earlier." Seeing Li Xue turning to walk in the direction where Feng Shufen and WeiWei has gone earlier, Shin You Jun asked. His steps were following beside her.
Li Xue turned to look at him but didn't say anything. To which he continued on his own. "I mean earlier she was clearly eyeing your man and I have always heard and seen that girls are very possessive for their man. Are you not the same?"
"…" Li Xue still didn't say anything. It was more like she felt a bit embarrassed to reveal that not just once but for Feng Shufen she has always been very possessive. Be it with Lin Xinyi the other time or with Zhang Xiaotong today. She doesn't like the way they thought about him.
Seeing her not reply, the boy was confused. Putting his own brain in assuming, he suddenly walked in front of Li Xue, facing her while walking backward, "Seems like you don't like that cold block of Devil seriously. Great! To be honest, you should have looked for someone better. You know there are a lot of good men. His cold face might look attractive but believe me the trend that girls follow nowadays is of men with a warm personality."
He spoke. Though Li Xue wanted to stop him from saying more, the boy was in his own zone of comfort. Without giving heed to her rejection for his words, he continued on his own. In his tune, he even forgot to sense that Li Xue has long stopped in her steps and was just staring at him with pity.
"You don't have to worry about WeiWei as well. To have her as the daughter any men would agree. If you want, I can introduce you to men. I will set blind dates for you and later when you find someone suitable you don't have to thank me. I will always be …"
His words paused all of a sudden when felt someone standing stiff behind him. A dark shadow loomed over him and he was about to turn to look and see who it was. But suddenly a sweet, innocent voice drew him towards enlightenment.
"Little, belittle Uncle, look, Daddy Angel has got unicorn candy floss for both of us."
And that voice was enough to let him know that whose shadow could be this dark. Why did he have to dig his own grave? He was already on the enemy list of the cold Devil and now that he would have heard him saying all that … will there be a reason with which he would go easy on him?

On the other side, after facing such embarrassment, Zhang Xiaotong felt like going crazy. Shutting the driver out of the car, she has herself started the engine to dash towards an unknown aim. Luckily, Lillian has been fast enough to follow along.
"Ms. Zhang, where are you driving to? This is not the way to Zhang's mansion. Are we going somewhere else?" The assistant asked holding tight on her seatbelts. She was growing pale in fear but since she was down on her job, she didn't have any other option but to endure the high-speed Zhang Xiaotong was driving on.
"…"
"This road will be going to the dead end. Are you sure that we are following the correct location?"
"The speed is exceeding the safety limits. For your safety, please drive safe or you will get hurt".
No matter how much Lillian spoke, Zhang Xiaotong didn't respond even once. She simply drove crazily like she was all ready to put her life at stake. Like she was all ready to put her life to an end.
And soon after some time, Lillian screamed in panic as not far in the distance she saw a cliff appear.
"Careful of the speed, or we might be dead." She screamed and it was that moment when Zhang Xiaotong seemed to realize the danger. Her eyes widened as for a moment she couldn't think what to do next.. Her legs pressed on the brakes but the speed was too much to get lowered that easily.
