Chapter 79 – Dreadful Murderous Aura Around.
Zheng Wenting has got his eyes trained at the direction where Li Xue has left with the man. He felt a sour feeling of envy in his heart. How could he expect a woman as beautiful as Li Xue will lack men around her?
But he had never expected that she could even get acquainted with someone as influential as Qi Shuai. She was with Feng Internationals now, and that too at such a reputed position. Could it be that she has got this place because …
"O my gosh! Sying! Was that true? Are they really in a relationship? O my gosh … o my gosh Qi Shuai and Li Xue. That's really big news" someone said from the group. "Maomao, I think you shouldn't have offended her before. You even said ill about her fiancée. Do you really think now your words have any face? We have all seen who was her fiancée"
The appearance of the man really created a big buzz among everyone. Wen Sying who has also witnessed everything in front of her eyes, clenched her fists as she heard the words going around. "We can't be sure about it guys. Maybe they are good friends as we can't forget that Li Xue is now working for Feng Internationals. And Director Qi has never been an aloof type like President Feng Shufen. He has always been friendly to the employees under their label. So their friendship is more understandable. Don't create rumors without any solid evidence"
She said as her eyes went to take a look at the man who was standing beside her all silent. The friends heard her words and nodded. Though they have clearly heard them mention 'boyfriend' several times, at no point he has accepted the fact that they were a couple.
"Yes, Sying is right. Master Qi has always been friendly to the people around him. Even if Li Xue is acquainted with him, there is nothing great in it, not like she has got in the good books of President Feng Shufen. Hmph! What's so good about her?" Maomao who was clearly feeling aggrieved said, trying to console herself with those words. The appearance of Qi Shuai by the side of Li Xue was like the tight slap on her face.
At her words, everyone could not decide whether they should laugh at her or console her. How can she treat Director Qi as someone easy around? If he was really easy then would he have ignored Zhen Wenting and Wen Sying before? It was acceptable that he was not as mighty as someone like Feng Shufen whose order rules the country and has great influence in the world around but still the value cannot be judged less.
Outside the restaurant, Li Xue was really embarrassed. It was her first meeting with the Director of the Feng Internationals and on the first meeting itself she had presented him with such a foul impression. She was sure that he must have heard most of the words from earlier.
"Ahh … that Director Qi, I am really sorry for before. I didn't know you were here and wasn't able to greet you properly", she said, getting really apologetic at her behavior. Though it has not been her fault but still the man she was facing right at this moment was her superior. So it will only be better if she keeps her formal side up at front.
When he heard her soft, polite voice, Qi Shuai stopped in his steps and turned to look at her. "Haha … You don't have to apologize for anything, Sister – in – law! If the man gets to know that you were apologizing me, then he will definitely have my head without thinking twice about it"
Li Xue was all dumbfounded at his words. Not because she felt pity for him but because of the way she was being addressed by him. Why did he call her Sister – in – law? Did he really misinterpret the situation?
She looked at him and was about to make things clear but he said, "Okay let's get to the car first or Shufen will come out himself to find you back". Saying this he quickly paced towards the parking area.
Getting near the signature black Maybach, he gently but urgently pushed the woman inside the back seat and went to take his seat in the front. When Li Xue got inside, cold chilly air struck her hard, making her shiver from the core.
There was Mr. Beelzebub sitting with a poker face, his aura all dark and terrifying. She has thought to ask him about the reason for his sudden arrival but looking at him like this, she has no more strength to say anything. She was getting a feeling that if she says anything at this moment, then it would be only her regretting afterwards.
But the cold was really getting unbearable for her. She turned to look towards the driver who was looking all composed to the temperature. Not able to take it anymore, she said "Can you please increase the temperature a little? I am getting a little cold."
The driver and Qi Shuai at an instant turned to look at her. Getting their sudden stares like this, the woman felt weird. Didn't she just say to increase the temperature? Was that something out the line of her politeness?
She again turned to look back at the man who was not giving any hints to her, as if he was giving her some kind of silent treatment. Smiling awkwardly, she said, "Haha … don't mind my words. It seems like the weather is itself like that"
"It's not like that, sister – in – law. The problem is that the air conditioner in the car is already at room temperature. The chills you are feeling are not from it rather from the man who is sitting beside you. Can't you feel it? The dreadful murderous aura around … Even looking outside the window, you could see the skies getting clouded over …" Qi Shuai said, making his eyes filled with sympathy and gesturing to her to feel the air around.
Hearing him mentioning this so straightforwardly, her eyes turned to look at the man and there was no doubt that the man was seriously carrying a murderous air around. But why was he like this? Did she do something to make him like this? Or was it because she made him wait out in the car?
