Chapter 380 – Morning Was Not Any Eventful.
"Sister Margaret, where are Shufen and WeiWei?" Li Xue asked as she went downstairs after getting freshened up and prepared. Earlier she had thought that once ready, she would go and make him understand that she has not intended to hurt him in any way. But now coming when she saw that there was no one downstairs, she was all dumbfounded.
Sister Margaret looked at the lady and she did not have to be said in any clear words. Her aged eyes could see it all. The man who never left without ensuring his lady's meals has left without having his own breakfast.
"Madam, Master left early today. He said that he has some important work at the organization. And about the little princess, it was time for her school so after making her have the perfect fill of the breakfast, I let the driver take her to the school".
Li Xue sighed. This was the first time of him avoiding her. But in no way she could blame him. Maybe he has said it right. She has really been spoiled too much that she did not even care for his emotions. She thought in herself when suddenly her ringing phone interrupted her thoughts.
Looking at the caller to be Su Fai, she received the call. "Good morning, CEO Su. Are there any orders for me today?" she greeted. Her voice and tone did not intend to mask her mood at all.
"Aye, are you in a bad mood? I thought you would be quite excited but … Did something happen Li Xue?" He asked, sensing the odds in her voice.
The woman paused for quite some time and when Su Fai thought that she might reveal something, she just chuckled to shrug the situation off. "Haha … there is nothing such. Just the morning was not any eventful today."
"Fine, fine, since you don't want to share it with me then I would not probe you. I just wanted to inform you that the legal orders have already been granted so it will already reach you by today or tomorrow. And since you are registered under the name of our roof, we would be helping you to take care of it. Once you get the notice, kindly inform me" he said.
At the mention of the topic again, Li Xue went back to the words Shufen had said to her earlier in the morning.
'If I would have intervened then, do you really think those people would still have been in the position to prepare any such legal notice?'
She truly wanted to hit herself hard. Why she always become such a dumbhead in front of him. He was right to say … How could she forget who he was actually? Given to his ways, if he has truly gotten himself involved in it then without any doubt, she would not be getting any court notice now. She was truly a fool to ask him that.
"Li Xue, are you still there?" when did not hear anything from her side, Su Fai asked to confirm her presence on the call.
"Ahh … sorry, I tranced off for a moment" she apologized and was about to put the reply for his words forward but right then Su Fai worded out his words to cheer her up, thinking that maybe she was thinking about the lawsuit against her.
"Li Xue, you don't have to worry about it. We are there for you and there must be a way through it. We are just waiting to see what terms and clauses they have put forward. Once we know that, we can easily come up with a plan".
Li Xue nodded to her side, even though there was no one to see her gesture of agreement. "Mmm – Hmm! I got you, CEO Su. I am not worried about that but still thank you for solacing me. And about the lawsuit, once I get the perfect legal papers, I will let you know first."
"Hmm … good", Su Fai affirmed and then added, "And also I have called to tell you that later tomorrow, find some time to come to the agency. I have decided on a manager for you. Once you come, I will introduce you two".
"Umm … you have already found one. Yesterday didn't you say that you were still trying to get a good one for me then?" Li Xue asked, wrinkling her brows slightly in curiosity.
"Ahem … Yes, I did say that but the one for whose call I was waiting for has confirmed yesterday. So, the search for the perfect manager is already complete" he said and instantly air of suspicion got built in the conversation. To not get it more intensified, he quickly added, "Then that's all for which I have called you. Since I have already made everything clear then I would just hang up the call now".
He said and before Li Xue could say anything the call was disconnected.
"This man … what's wrong with him?" Li Xue mumbled to herself as she stared at her phone in disbelief.
"Madam, should I serve you the breakfast", Sister Margaret asked, when she saw the phone call getting over. She still has an order to execute. Has to make sure that the lady eats something before leaving for work. That was an order Feng Shufen had given to her before leaving for the organization.
Li Xue's eyes went to look at the dining table. She has cooked something that was one of his favourites yet he went without having it. She must have upset him too much. She sighed to herself.
Though she was not a person to skip a meal, suddenly she was feeling like she had lost all her appetite. So, pulling her lips down she simply shook her head lightly and said, "It's okay, Sister Margaret. You don't have to. Just help me put everything back in the refrigerator. I will have it once back from work. For now, I think I will get late if not left early."
"But Madam, Young Master …" The old lady was about to say something when a guard came to knock at the door.
"Ms Li Xue, a lady has come to meet you. She is saying that she is your mother!".
