Chapter 320 – Treating Everyone Meal Boxes At Sweet Delicacy.
Inside Sweet Delicacy, Wen Sying has taken a seat at a plush sofa table and was signing her autographs one after the other. Both young girls and boys were hovering around her like bees buzzing over the pot of honey.
"Sying, do you know I have been following you on Weibo from the first day you have registered your account there. I have always admired your soft style of fashion. That has always been so soothing to one's eyes", one girl said as she came forward with her autograph book in hand.
Wen Sying lips instantly got lifted up to present a delicate smile. "Aww … that's so sweet of you. Thank you for showing your support for me all these years''.
"Sying, can I take a picture with you. I have also been following you for quite some time now and has always thought of the day when I will be able to meet you", a boy from the crowd said looking all lovingly at the woman.
Wen Sying looked at him and nodded, "Yes, sure! We can! But let's take a group picture with everyone. I am here to meet a friend so it would not look nice if I remain all busy with myself." She said and the crowd instantly squealed with the agreement.
Forming an arc with the people around while Wen Sying in the middle, soon a group picture was clicked.
Just when it happened, Sying eyes caught the glimpse of Li Xue's silhouette standing at the side, leaning over the counter. The arrogant smirk that she has always envied Li Xue for was playing all excellently on her lips. For a second, she felt like that smile of hers was mocking her for something.
She has long wanted that smirk of Li Xue to disappear from the world but that woman's attitude has always remained the same, even after being so badly humiliated by the public. Like she was not just a layman of this country but the Queen who would not bow her head, no matter what.
Her thoughts were soon snapped back when suddenly heard more squeals of excitement around her. Her lips smiled again when she realized that there were people around her. Bowing slightly forward, she worded out some grateful words.
"Thank you for supporting me. I am really grateful that I have fans like you all. Please keep supporting me the way you have always done. Now I would ask you to please excuse me and also this very fine place as I would never want that because of us this beautiful place suffers any loss."
Right at the moment when her words got completed, an optimistic voice came to inject some suggestions forward. "It's nice to see Ms Wen being so humble to care about our dessert brand. I really appreciate the air of modesty you always try to keep around yourself". Li Xue said as she elegantly took her steps forward.
She has already put on her respectful chef coat and was looking none less elegant at the scene, even though there was less than minimal makeup put on her face, she was still beautiful coming all different from the crowd. Her aura beaming with undeniable confidence.
That confidence was something that has always irked Wen Sying to the core.
Though Wen Sying knew that Li Xue has always been a tough woman but at the end of the day she was still a lassie, whose confidence has deliberately been trampled on to put her in ruins.
She was little taken aback seeing her confident initiative of coming forward to speak her words in the crowd that has once ruined her in history. How can she still be confident enough to face the people who have once ramshackle both her and her loved ones?
"Ahh … Li …" she initiated her words to greet her, maintaining the pretence she has come here with but the woman did not let her complete pronouncing her name.
"Since you care so much about us and our place's profit and loss, why not help us instead. That will definitely help you prove your said words in a better way" Li Xue said, pulling her lips into a pleasant curl. But Sying knew it all well that a pretty smile of hers can be anything but pleasant.
Then what was she up to?
Earlier Wen Sying has planned her visit here to enjoy her happiness with her long lost friend. She wanted to mock her by letting her see how she was enjoying the dream which was once hers and also the love and pampers of the man that was once her boyfriend.
But little did she know that even with all those mere petty accomplishments, she would never be able to look down on Li Xue because that was something that Li Xue, herself, would never allow.
"Ahh … you are finally here. I have come here to meet you. By the way, what are you saying, Li …" She initiated her words again seeing her come closer, maintaining her perfect delicate dainty manners but her words were cut short by Li Xue's gasp of disbelief.
"What? Come here to meet this little Dessert Chef? I never thought that a fashion celeb as high and mighty as you would ever care to save some time to visit a mere acquaintance of yours from the past".
Though Li Xue's words were not right, it was not totally wrong too. In comparison to a celebrity, a dessert chef was not any great but with the tag of Head Dessert Chef of Sweet Delicacy, the worth has been increased to a limit where it can easily surpass or could be equal to any celebrity.
With the revealed fact, the people around instantly understood where the true modesty existed.
Wen Sying felt her lips twitching on the deliberate provocation but she held her reality back as revealing her worst at this moment would only bring the worst to her. Furthermore, her aim today was to just give a piece of news to the media. Just bringing Li Xue's name slightly on the surface will serve it all.
Sobering her look more than what it was actually required, she said, "What are you saying, Li Xu…" But like again, Li Xue was not new to her plans. After knowing the encounter between Feng Yi Lan and Wen Sying, she knew well what had brought her here today.
Without letting her complete, Li Xue said, "Ahh … I am sorry, Ms Wen. I almost forgot to complete my words. Thank you for reminding me. I was saying that since you have such loving admirers around you and you also care for our dessert brand's losses, why not take a mid-way then".
As she said, her lips curled into the most beautiful smile of hers. No doubt she has something in her mind.
Wen Sying does not understand what was it but she knew that nothing good is coming to her. She wanted to retreat but could she?
Nope, she couldn't. Li Xue has trapped her in the middle of the battlefield from where she could not escape. The cunning shine in Li Xue's eyes was letting her know that though the war was yet to start, the winning team was already decided.
Raising her brows in confusion, Wen Sying was about to ask what those words meant but Li Xue was more eager than her to unfold it, so she said, "Let me explain. Since you have so many people admiring you from so many years why not treat them to a small meal here. It will definitely warm their heart and you will feel good too".
Wen Sying's expressions instantly went stiff. Did she really intend to say treating everyone a small meal at Sweet Delicacy?
