Chapter 295 – Long Forgotten Dessert.

When Li Xue got at the scene her eyes paused to look at the woman who was sitting with all charms of elegance intact with her, her one leg over the other and arm perfectly kept on the table. Be it her posture, her dressing, or the smirk of arrogance on her lips everything seemed so alluring. Though her features held some paled coldness, there was still a hint of warmth and kindness in her aged eyes.

Li Xue has called those dark onyx eyes as aged, not because it was surrounded with wrinkles rather because the sharpness she could see in it. That sharpness was not something out of wealth rather it was something that can be bet to come from hard-earned experiences.

"Ma'am, we are already saying that the dessert you are asking for is not in our menu list and we can't just take your demands, just because you say you are our old customer. Even if you are, we can only help you get some discount on the desserts we have with us but we can't just go to some hassle and prepare something out of our menu list for you". Ning Meiling said with exasperation.

Though Chef Ning was making it look like a simple issue of customer dissatisfaction, Li Xue could feel that the things were not as simple as they were being portrayed. The hidden hint of fear and panic in Ning Meiling's tone was not letting her accept the things the way they were presented.

And all her instincts were proven to be true when she saw the lady turning her eyes to look more directly towards Ning Meiling. Her lips tilted a little at the side to form a disdainful expression directed to the person who was talking to her.

"Discount on desserts? If I can still afford to come here, then do you think I would not be capable enough to afford these sweets? Really? Has it only me being aged or has it been this dessert brand who has aged so much that it has almost forgotten the tagline with which it had started?"

The woman said. The impeccable smile of hers simply not leaving her lips. Her eyes darted to look at the name badge stuck on the women's chef coat.

"Chef Ning, right? Being able to come forward to handle your customer's dissatisfaction, you must be titled as one of the Head Chef or some other high titled chef of this shop. That means you should be the one more familiar with the brand's motive and inspiration than any other staff working here. So care to remind me that tagline again.".

The other people and customer's gossips were filling the air. That situation can easily make anyone's temper rise and tough composure lose. Maybe that was the only intention of the woman customer. To test something by bringing the worst into the picture.

"Ma'am, you are just making it tough for us. We already said …", Ning Meiling was not extraordinary. She was just on the verge of losing both her composure and control. Her palms had already started to become clammy but this very customer was only becoming tough and tougher to handle.

Just as she reached at the end of patience, a pretty confident voice loomed from behind. "Sweet Delicacy – Joining desserts with emotions!"

The woman customer's attention instantly moved to look at the source of the voice. For an instant, a soft shine of twinkling stars in the dark night crossed the woman's eyes which definitely was noticed by Li Xue too.

But before Li Xue could confirm it, it vanished in a way like it has never existed.

Was that just her illusion? Li Xue thought as she took her steps closer to them. Her eyes turned to look at Ning Meiling, giving her a supporting nod. And to her very surprise, it was the first time that the woman accepted to take her help and support so willingly.

Li Xue wanted to clap her hands in appreciation but the situation at which they were present was simply not allowing her to do something like that.

"Sorry for the interruption, Ma'am. But you have asked about our brand's tagline. So that was the inspirational quote with which the foundation of our chain was laid" Li Xue said again, turning her attention back at the customer in front.

The woman customer smiled at her confident tone and then said, "Finally, I can say that the Sweet Delicacy still has someone who remembers the initial motive behind its establishment. But does it still follow the same attitude with which it had begun long years ago?" Though her words seemed like a little taunt, her expressions were saying otherwise. Something like …

Bowing with some professional politeness, Li Xue said with tranquillity in her tone, "Sorry for your dissatisfaction Ma'am. But our brand is still the same. It still believes in joining desserts with the emotions of our customers. But your requests seemed to be a little tough at this moment for us to attend as you can see that you are not just the only customer we have to look after at this moment and we are running a little less in staff."

"If only you have chosen something easy from our given list then it won't have been this hard. But definitely, you are one of our important customers too, given to how long your support has been with us. We just need your time and patience. We will see how best we can satisfy your order"

Li Xue said, being oblivious to coming challenges in her way. But she soon realized it when caught the expression on Ning Meiling's face getting all paled. She was sure that her words weren't that flawed. Didn't she just make some efforts to ease the customer?

Then why was Chef Ning giving her stare like she auctioned Sweet delicacy without asking anyone's permission?

That's when she heard Mia's words from behind. It was just some mere whisper to her ears. "Li Xue, you worsened the things. We shouldn't have accepted her order. This customer has ordered something that none of us knows how to bake. They say that it's some long lost forgotten dessert".
