Chapter 493 – 5 Years Ago, He Has Fallen For Her Grace And Features.
Su Fai was rendered speechless with Li Xue's words. Did she really say that she has got to know about it just by looking at the décor around? Was that even possible? Aren't aesthetic decors too common nowadays?
"And yeah, I almost forgot to tell you. The company can now proceed with the lawsuit but please don't take the way of giving the compensation they are asking for. Because they just don't deserve it" Suddenly Li Xue said.
Since her previous mentor CEO Jiang has already taken retirement from the industry and most importantly from Oriental Spark, now she had no one else there to take care of. The new firm that deserves her loyalty was Glamour Worlds and her no string was left attached to her former agency.
Su Fai nodded. He knew what was holding Li Xue back all this time. Smiling with some profound thought, he asked, "You are so good to your mentors, Li Xue. You have thought so much about CEO Jiang. Will you be the same with me too?" His eyes blinked expectantly at the lady, asking her to immediately give in and accept his words in positiveness. But little did he expect her next coming words.
"Why? Are you also planning to take retirement from the industry tomorrow?" the woman asked, looking at him while rubbing her chin with some deep thought.
Truly Savage!
"Hey, I have just joined and started my career here. I am still yet to do so much I have planned and here you are cursing me to get retirement soon. Why? Am I not looking good at this position? And what is with your attitude? Is this the type of gratefulness you should show to the person who is not only your Boss but also a friend?" The man asked, putting his hands onto his hips.
Li Xue who was already on her way out just turned around more properly to shrug her shoulders in innocence. "Huh? What did I say? I just asked my question regarding your question so that I can give you a more definite answer".
"You … You are too cruel! Do you know that?" Su Fai could only give in to the situation. Of course, he was not unknown to Li Xue's attitude. This was her casual fun side that could make anyone enjoy their time. He was already happy to see her back into her previous form.
Li Xue again smirked, pushing her shoulders back. "Of course, won't it be a waste if I don't know about my marvellous nature and attributes?"
The man could only shake his head at her words that were amusing him greatly. It was really nice to see her back.
"Okay, let's drop that topic off. I won't let my heart expect much from you. For now, tell me what you are planning to do. I mean I am sure that you are keeping some things under your sleeves or else there is no way we would be able to escape this compensation".
Li Xue smiled with some devilishness as she gave the rough hint over the surface. "There is nothing too great in my plans, CEO Su. It's some of my delayed jobs that I should have completed 5 years ago. Now that I have already delayed it for so long. I just thought to complete it with all perfection now. Will that not be great? Huh?"
After all, it is said, 'If you bow at all, bow low!'
Seeing her smile that way, Su Fai almost felt his spines running cold. He could clearly see the devil with horns sitting over her right shoulder while whispering devilishly in her ears.
"Fine, fine, I won't ask more. Hearing your words with that smile itself is already making me feel cold. I hope the people on whom your dreadfulness befall could at least have some strength to not die at zero points. Or else, you would not be satisfied with the play", Su Fai said, calming his nerves down. After all, he still remembers all her basketball matches records back from their high school.
Hearing his words, Li Xue just let out a low chuckle of laughter. "I am impressed. You still remember all my ways! Okay now that I have settled all the things in your office, I better go and see the things with Sister Lin once. She has asked me to visit her soon"
She said and then turned away to leave. Su Fai also nodded to her in agreement. And nevertheless, he, himself, was too busy.

Same time in Feng Internationals,
Feng Shufen was not, as usual, sitting behind his desk. Instead, he was standing at the clear glass wall of his office. His hands were tugged inside his pant's pockets while his cold eyes were deeply staring at the downing mild warmth of the sun at a distance. A satisfied smile was continuously playing over his lips.
All the flashes from the morning were playing in his memories. Finally, this was the point he was yearning to bring her. The stage where she was back in the form the world has once known her to be. Back to be the woman who was very courageous to speak herself out with the piercing sharpness that could shred anyone's ego and fake confidence.
Little did anyone know how much it has dreaded him when he has seen her ambers devoid of the shine that it once had in it. He still remembers when fate played the part to bring her in front of him again after 5 years back. Gave him the chance that he has once lost 5 years ago! Brought him the second chance to make everything right that he once thought but has been late in making any efforts.
Who said that it was just a few months back when he had met the woman?
It has been more than 5 years since he has known her. More than 5 years since he has fallen for her grace and features!
