Chapter 190 – She Can Never Blame Him.
It was none other than Qi Shuai and Li Xue at the door. Earlier when Qi Shuai offered to take her to some other person who can also be a help in such a situation, she felt her instinct warning her about it. But seeing her time getting wasted, she agreed to follow around.
She was relieved when she confirmed the way she was following was not the one she had followed the last time to reach Mr Beelzebub's office. But she didn't realize that it was just her way that was different, her fated destination was still the same. She deceived herself thinking that everything was going according to her own plans, but when the elevator dinged open at the floor, she realized that all along she had not been given any chance to play.
Li Xue stood there, looking at the man who was sitting all patiently and nonchalantly behind his desk hearing the woman out. Without any say, just by her look one can say that she has heard everything all clearly from the little opening of the door earlier. Her expressions were all plain and calm, not giving any hints of the chaos she was feeling inside.
And as for Feng Shufen, his eyes instantly snapped in the direction of the door, getting a little still in surprise. Though he was wanting to see her, he did not expect her at this moment. His lips gave a hint of a slight smile but it went all frozen when felt the woman not reciprocating it.
What was she thinking now? This woman was going to kill him with curiosity to understand her assumptions. He has never been this curious to know something before but seems like she has become his sole exception for everything.
Looking at her, he tried to read her once again. Her eyes seemed a little cold, reflecting some accusations for him again but at the same time, she was doubting as to whether to speak them out or not. Like she was having doubts thinking if she can accuse him or not?
Li Xue was questioning herself inside. Was this what she wanted? Yes, maybe it was. Since every time the man wanted to come near her, she always pushed him aside telling that she had long given up on his feelings. Yes, she has been waiting for this. For him to leave her alone. Then why was she feeling so pained now?
Wasn't their relationship all fake? Then why was she feeling hurt, hearing him say that he was ready to put it to an end?
Qi Shuai almost felt his heartbeat stop. What was going in the head of the Devil again? He has brought Li Xue to him so that his aggressive more like dampened mood from the morning can calm down. But with the words he has used earlier … he … what was he actually intending with those words?
At this moment even Gao Fan arrived. He was just here to see if something has happened to make their President's mood go worse from what it actually was! And finding Ms Kim inside the office and Ms Li at the door gave him the answer he was looking for.
Ryan, who has also realized the sudden appearance, turned to see Li Xue in the pitiful state that she was trying to hide. She pulled a smile of achievement on her lips to look down at her but Li Xue didn't bother to glance at her even for once. Even in her state of disappointment, there is no way she would let people laugh at her. This something simply unacceptable to her.
'Li Xue there is nothing to blame him for! This is what you wished for, so now accept it', she consoled herself. Her own words of disagreement and rejection from earlier mocked her state of dismay. Her straight lips soon curled up into a smile to go according to the best she has planned for.
Seeing her lips curling, Feng Shufen's could not control his fists from getting clenched tight, almost making his knuckles go white and expressions go dark. He might have not realized before the reason for her such doubtful gaze before but after taking everything into consideration, he was not any dumb to not understand her expressions before and smile now. With his ambiguous words from before, she must have misinterpreted the things.
"Ahh! I am really sorry, President Feng. I didn't mean to interrupt your work and discussion. I was just here for my own task", lifting her file a little up to show, she said, "This report! I need to submit this to Ms Lin. I once again apologize for the interruption. Please carry on! I will make my way to find Ms Lin then".
She said and then taking her steps back she turned to walk away. Qi Shuai wanted to yell at his friend for being so insensitive but before he could even get to say anything, a heavy cold voice resounded throughout the floor, enough hard to stop everyone in their tracks. "Come and sit inside!"
Li Xue too held her steps back. But her expressions did not flinch even a bit from his commanding voice, opposite to that her smile got more deepened.
"Ohh no, no, President Feng! I can't, I still have things pending and you too seem busy with Ms Kim. I won't be able to take the consequences of interrupting your work". The easy-going smile of her lips that was irking the man, was simply not leaving.
At this moment Ryan, who was still inside the office room said, "Li Xue, you don't have to take the things wrong. We often have to sacrifice our happiness for the sake of our family and business. Don't blame Shufen for this!"
Li Xue's smile became more beautiful hearing her words. "I can't bring myself to blame him, Ms. Kim! You are reading too much into it. For the time being, I am too busy to do so" She said and then again turned to leave. She was about to take her step forward to walk away when suddenly, she was lightly pushed inside and in the same span of a few seconds, Ryan was brought outside.
Before both women could understand what had happened with them, their positions had been swiftly exchanged, closing the door of the office at once. Li Xue was all stunned at the stunt pulled in the broad daylight. "President Feng, what is the meaning of all this?"
She asked looking at the man who has now stood up from his seat. "Didn't I ask you to come and sit inside? I am just making you follow my orders, that's it! Aren't you, my employee at this time? Now since you are already inside, take a seat so that we can talk and sort the things out between us".
