Chapter 46 – I Will Never Let You Go.
Li Xue's breath got hitched when she heard such intense words in such a smooth voice. It felt her heart thumping in a way where she feared that her heart will not be left with any more heart beats till the next year. Blinking her eyes at him, she tried to clear her cloudy thoughts and senses.
Sensing their romantic posture, the woman quickly distanced herself after getting a stable footing on the floor. "Sorry, President Feng! It wasn't intentional"
"You do have a lot of 'sorry' and 'thank you' for me. But how are you thinking to really pay them off?" Feng Shufen asked, raising his brows while putting his hands in his dress – pant's pockets and leaning on his desk behind.
"…", Li Xue was at loss of words. This was the reason she wasn't ready to see him but her fate brought her here. Now what was she going to do? She tried every corner of her brain to look for a way or reason or excuse that could save her from this situation but none of her brain cells were ready to help. Like they have all surrendered in front of his charms.
"So I see you have yet to think about it. No worries we have got both time and reasons to meet. Now I am all confident that you won't be running away with the sincere actions you owe to me. We can wait and see if you get the way to pay off me first or it's me who will have to help you find the way", he said and waited to get her reaction on his words.
Li Xue felt her heart vacillating at his words. What does this Mr. Beelzebub mean by his words now? Should I feel relieved that I have been spared for today? Or should I fear the surprise bomb that could explode on me at any time, any day?
She wanted to throw her head back and laugh insanely loud to let everyone know what bad luck she was having at this moment. After several seconds she was able to accept her destiny. 'Fine this is what I have got then let's face it. I will live in my present so that I can die happily in the future', she dramatically cried saying those words inside.
Then looked at the Prince of Hell, who was standing in front of her and thought of giving some piece of mind to him too since he has already messed everything around her. "President Feng, are you sure that this won't be our last encounter. After your open challenge in the conference room, I think I won't be able to survive in your brand anymore. This would be the last day and as the house was given to me by the company, I am not sure if I would be able to stay there anymore"
Hearing her say those words, Feng Shufen gave his famous mysterious smile, "Since I have found you, there is no way I will let you go anywhere. So don't worry, I let that challenge out because I believe you"
Mr. Beelzebub, who asked you to believe me? Your belief is too tough for me to carry. And wait a second, am I missing something? What does he mean in his first half of the sentence?
Li Xue cocked her head to the side and looked at the man suspiciously and then said with all humble and polite voice she can bring up, "President Feng, I don't think I am anymore capable of understanding your words? Can you please be a little easy on me? I am …"
Before she could even complete her words, a beautiful laughter rang in the room making her all daze. Not only her but also the man who has been standing out the closed door.
Gao Fan was so shocked that he was about to open the door without any permission to confirm the persons inside. Was that really President Feng's laughter? Or was he hallucinating out of some work stress?
Inside, the man really wasn't able to control his laughter. This woman would make people suspect if he was really in the right mind to behave like this. When he was able to control himself, he looked at her and said, "You are underestimating yourself, woman. You are capable of more than that. And for my previous words, let them slip off your mind. From next time, I will be more simpler to you. For now, just make sure that you win. Don't let my words and beliefs down. I make you in charge for my reputation, you have to manage everything for me while I will make myself focused on work"
He said and gestured to her to give an affirmation to his words. Thinking herself running out of time, Li Xue quickly nodded to him, while her mind was still on its way to process the Big Boss's words.
"Okay fine that was it. Now you can go and carry on with your dessert dishes. I will ask Gao fans to send you the files regarding the information about the European client. Just have a look at that before you start your work", he said and without waiting turned back to get on his chair.
When Li Xue got the meaning of his words she was already on her way out towards the canteen kitchen. Did my own brain have quit helping me? Or my thoughts have itself gone insane? Why did it feel that Mr. Beelzebub's words seemed more like a man asking her woman to focus all her attention on him and her work, while he will be the responsible one to bring the money for livelihood?
The woman was still pondering on his words when suddenly a bubbly voice right near her ear broke her trance, "Li Xue, you are here. I thought you were still in the President's office. Did he ask you something?"
Li Xue shook her head, "No, no nothing serious. He was just asking me if I will be able to make it. He does not want to let his words and reputation down". She said different words in front but was still pondering something else inside her head.
Mia nodded and said, "Don't worry, you can do it. I believe you with all my heart, career and dream". When she heard her again mentioning the three set of words, 'I believe you', subconsciously she remembered the words she had heard in the office.
Remembering it she cried out internally again, 'Why do people have to believe me like this?'. At this moment a poker voice disrupted both women.
"Ms. Li Xue!"
