Chapter 396 – Immediate Guardian In My Knowledge
Leave him and find someone better!
There is no way Li Xue would find anywhere the strength to handle those words. She did not know when or how but to her, Feng Shufen has become that dear possession of her heart for whom she could start a war against the world.
How can she accept to leave him when unknowingly or knowingly the man has taken that corner of her life without whom she could not live anymore?
Her fingers clenched tight when she heard the man on the other side of the call. Giving a venomous glint from her amber eyes, she said with a playful vigour tone that was fairly intended to tease.
"In my book of knowledge, no men can be better than him and none have the qualities to get compared to him. Working on finding something or someone that does not exist in the world is just a waste of time. And you know well that the wastage of time is something I never do."
Saying her words she simply disconnected the call. The call was made after such long ages. She never thought to end it at this note. She knew that Jing Wei Jin has always cared about her and WeiWei but that would never mean that she would let him say something like that about Mr Beelzebub.
Taking a deep breath inside to relieve herself, she turned around only to find the two heads hanging forward to hear more of her words. Her eyes twitched when saw the phone up in the hands of Chen Yujian with an expression of disappointment on his face while Mia with thief- like smile over her lips.
The moment the young boy caught the gaze of Li Xue lingering on his phone, he quickly scrambled his hands to put it back in the pocket as if any moment late then he would regret it.
"What are you guys doing? Is there something?" Li Xue asked. Her eyes, moving between Mia and Chen Yujian, not understanding what's been wrong in their expressions.
And just as she asked, like a little birdy up in the air, Mia flew to get on her side. Her eyes beaming with some excitement to know something spicy. "Li Xue, who was on the call? Is there someone … I mean is some man chasing after you?"
"Is that something to ask? Didn't you hear how she was flaunting President Feng there? Of course, there must be someone chasing her with love proposals or what do you think? And did you forget about the gift that has come last day on her name?" Chen Yujian interrupted Mia's conversation by folding his arms in front. His eyes staring up at the ceiling as if he has got the power to look through the bricked wall all easily.
Li Xue almost rolled her eyes at his words. If not known him for better, she would have thought that he was getting jealous of the call she had gotten earlier. But knowing the boy well, she knew that he was the prankster, who loves to push her to the deep end so that he can tease later!
"Hey! How many girls have proposed to you to make you get so exact of the situation? Is there a need for me to report this to your immediate guardian in my knowledge? If you want then …" She said, giving a flip to her phone but the moment she did, the boy instantly panicked and added.
"Chef Li, my bad! I forgot your such an important lesson. It's better to wear an oven mitt before handling the hot tray inside. I would always keep that in mind from next time. For now, I will go and see what more orders from you are left to be completed". Chen Yujian said with a pressed smile as he quickly strolled out. He has thought that he would make some evidence against her and then blackmail her. But instead of blackmailing her, he got himself blackmailed.
Sigh! He heaved a deep disappointed breath out looking at the phone in his hand and then stuffing it back inside his pocket, he walked off.
Back inside, Mia looked at Li Xue as she waited to hear her words. But Li Xue has long forgotten her question. When she turned to look at her, she was confused with her expression.
Understanding her confusion, Mia quickly added, "I asked you is there any other guy chasing after you? Did President Feng already know about it? He has not been calling you for the last few days, did that man on the call have created some misunderstanding between you two? Have …" Mia let out all questions in one breath and would have still continued it without knowing that she was out of breath until Li Xue let her know.
"Take a deep breath in!" Li Xue said, lightly patting on the girl's shoulders. "And then let it out".
Mia followed her instructions as she took a deep breath in and then lightly let it out. Then looking at Li Xue, she asked all unknowingly, "Was I out of breath? I didn't notice. And you don't have to pay any heed to it too. Just answer my questions".
Li Xue could only shake her head as she said, "What's there to get so hyped up? Even if there is a man after a woman, his chase would serve no purpose since she already has someone in her life." As she said, suddenly her phone beeped with a text. Looking at the sender of the message her lips pressed. Ignoring it for a moment, she looked back at the girl and said. "We are already nearing the time of getting off-work. Quickly go and wrap the things. I will do the same and then again I can drop you at the subway".
She said and Mia instantly nodded before leaving to complete her work. When she was gone, Li Xue opened the text to see what new, the man has got now in his book. But the moment she did, her face went slightly pale as her fingers clutched the phone hard.
