Chapter 878 – Last Day Of His Happy Journey.
Making sure of the things, Li Xue soon gave a goodbye wave to everyone in the company. But her wave of hands never meant goodbye, rather it was a clear warning to everyone, letting them know that it was tough to bully the people around her.
The indication was clear and people could get it all well. How can they not when the example that they have seen was so well explained?
Outside, Du Fan had long gone to ready the car while Li Xue took a slow walk with Xiao Meng following behind. The way was already silent and with the extra hushed attitude of the young assistant, it was reaching the peak of itchy tranquility.
Li Xue could feel it well but she was allowing it, given the necessity that everyone should realize their mistake. Though Yuan Yuan did wrong, somewhere her young assistant was also wrong. And Li Xue knew that Meng Meng knew it as well.
"Sister Xue, one second please!"
After a really long time when Li Xue was almost about to reach her car, an expected call of apology from behind paused her. Her lips curled in satisfaction as she turned around to look at Xiao Meng..
"Yes, Meng Meng! Is there anything?"
"Sister Xue, I … Won't you chide me?" Looking down with some guilt, Xiao Meng asked and as if she was all unknown about the happenings, Li Xue raised her brows in confusion.
"Chide you? Why would I do that, Meng Meng?"
"Sister Xue, I am sorry. I know I did wrong so you can scold me. I won't cry". The little assistant said and even though she has assured that she would not cry, Li Xue could already hear her sobbing.
Her such action reminded her of WeiWei and instantly brought a smile over her lips. But not letting it surface totally on her demeanor, she asked in a bit of nonchalant tone. "What did you do wrong? Sorry, Meng Meng but I am not getting you".
Xiao Meng's drooped eyes at once looked up with a furrow of brows, "Sister Xue …."
"Honestly, Meng Meng, I don't know. How about you tell me and then I will say if what you did was really wrong or not?" Li Xue said, keeping her composure very soft so that it didn't give any discomfort to the young girl.
"Sister Xue, earlier, I was wrong to bring you and Sister Xinyi in trouble." The little assistant said and at her confession, Li Xue tsked in denial and shook her head.
Xiao Meng was confused. But her confusion didn't stay for long as Li Xue soon guided her towards the right.
"Meng Meng, you weren't wrong to bring the trouble because troubles are not something we could always avoid. But what you did wrong was getting involved without giving a thought to its outcome. Trouble won't become a big problem if you already know what its consequences will bring you next." Li Xue explained and her words only made the held tears roll down Xiao Meng's cheeks.
And the next second, Xiao Meng's arms went to wrap around Li Xue's neck, "Sister Xue, I am really sorry. I will keep it in mind from next time". She cried, hugging her close.
Li Xue could feel the genuineness of the promise. Patting her gently on her back, she coaxed, "Fine, Fine, I know you will be careful next time. Now stop crying or else you would have to cry twice when next you will meet Sister Xinyi in her office. I am sure till now, the air must have let her know everything."
"I – I deserve her scolding, Sister Xue. I did wrong. So don't worry, I will take every punishment she will give me. I am already happy enough that you don't blame me."
"Fine, since you are ready to handle it. I won't mind letting you free to face it on your own. Come on, go in then. I am also getting late, I must also make my way now." Li Xue said before gesturing for the girl to walk back inside the company.
Xiao Meng nodded and then headed back. Seeing her leave, Li Xue faintly smiled before turning to walk to her car at a distance. Suddenly her thoughts reminded her of what Su Fai had said to her in the elevator. Definitely, she has changed. Now she was not brokenly restrained, rather was more and more free, back like what she was in the past.
She walked and before she realized she was already near the car. Seeing her come, Du fan quickly opened the door for her. But before she could get inside to sit, he apologized as well. "Madam, I am sorry. I didn't know on the very first day I would cause you such trouble."
Li Xue looked at him and gently patted him on his shoulders. "It's not your fault Du Fan but of your Young Master, don't blame yourself. Come, drive me to WeiWei's school first. It's already time to pick her up." She said and at her such gentle voice, the driver immediately looked up at her face with some perplexion.
Her expressions were warm and gentle but something about her words terrified Du Fan to his core.
Blame Young Master! Was this the last day of his happy journey in this life? The thought scared him. But now that the madam has already said there seemed no way of saving his life.
Helping Li Xue close the door, Du Fan quickly got in the driver's seat. His eyes went to look at Li Xue in the rear mirror and still there felt nothing wrong in her composure. "Madam, we will drive to Cygnus International School then." He said, purposefully to hear the voice of the lady once more to guess if he was guessing something wrong.
"Mhm. First, drive to the school and from there drive us to the Royal Palace." Li Xue spoke with a smile while looking through her phone. And again with her normalized tone, Du Fan wasn't able to solve the confusion he was feeling inside.
