Ryan has deliberately tried to look down on Li Xue. But have never thought that at the end, it will be her who will be insulted. Who can blame her? Not everyone can dare with confidence to look down on the woman who has been titled as 'beauty with brains' and also comes from a high class family.
But this woman has actually goaded to say such words to her. 'Is she trying to lower me in front of Feng Shufen? If that's her intention, then she is truly a witch. Shufen must have not seen her reality yet', she thought clenching her jaws tight.
"You … Were you insulting me?" Rayan was on the verge of losing her control. Today all the events she has come across have not been easy for her and this was the worst.
"Ahh! How could I? I am just a mere head dessert chef by profession, how could I think of challenging the woman whom I couldn't compare myself to? And if my words really felt like that then pardon me. I may have exaggerated the meaning of your term, 'friendly relationship between us' ", she said. Her eyes showed a hint of guilt but that was only at the surface. It didn't reach the depths.
Li Xue was satisfied looking at the woman like this. Her words were said in such a delicate way that no one can lay a finger on it saying that it was an insult, not after what the other woman started with.
She never meant to be rude with her but that never meant, she has allowed anyone to come and be rude to her. She wasn't a woman who would take anyone's insults and words that easily. She wasn't like that in the past nor she will be in the future.
Ryan can only gulp her insults down. She has been trapped in the cage of her own words and there is no way she can retaliate. Her words will only make the situation worse, making her lose her own dignity.
She lifted her eyes to look in the direction of the man, expecting to see any little hint of sympathy for her but there he was sitting all nonchalant sipping his soup down and slicing the meat pieces elegantly.
Will he not support her for the sake of friendship they shared for all those years?
All these years, did he not value her even for an ounce of pity?
When Li Xue caught her eyes moving towards the man, at that moment she remembered that she was missing the big factor from the scene. Mr. Beelzebub! All this time she has almost forgotten him.
It felt more like in a situation where she has flirted with some other men forgetting the presence of her husband beside her. This was sin, a true sin. And an appropriate punishment for such a sinful act was written in the books of Heaven. But will that also be applicable in the world of Mr. Beelzebub? Will he be also punishing her for her audacious words and actions?
Thinking about it, this can happen as the woman she has insulted is no one else but an important client of Feng Internationals. And though she has been brought here in the name of Big Boss girlfriend that doesn't give her any right to offend the honorable client.
Those thoughts scared her out of wits as she turned to look at the man. She was preparing herself for hearing some royal decree pass against her but when her eyes fell on the man, all her stormy thoughts of heart got settled when saw the calmness on his face. The perfection in him can ruin the whole world.
"Here! Have this, this is the best part of the dish", Feng Shufen said softly, as he placed a meatball piece in her plate. She can feel the happiness in his aura. A satisfaction!
He wasn't mad, rather he was happy! This fact scared her more. She tried to look deeper into him, trying her best to find his real intentions. 'There is no way he would be happy after hearing what I said to Ms. Kim. Was it his different way of dealing with the people?'
Li Xue looked at the meat piece she had served on the plate. There has already been much food accumulated on her plate, without her knowing. All this time the man has only concentrated on this? Though she knew, he had introduced her as his girlfriend, but there wasn't any need for it. Even if he doesn't do all this, no one can say anything to him.
Was he planning to slaughter her like a pig? Quietly, without letting her guess any danger around her.
Sensing his cunning tricks, an awkward smile crept up her lips. A smile that was a mixture of self – laughter and fear.
Feng Shufen was all aware of her movement. All this time, his eyes have never left her. His eyes were not allowing him to miss her any expression, like if he wanted to hold her in front of his eyes forever. "How is it?" he asked, when he saw her eating the food he had personally placed on her plate. It was his first time doing such actions for anyone.
He never knew about all this but finding her in front of his eyes, his action has become all spontaneous. Nothing planned from before.
Li Xue looked at him and nodded, "It's good." Looking at them like this, everyone felt envious. This was their President whom they have always thought to be the cold hearted one but now in front of the woman no one can match his tenderness.
But who won't become like this when they have such a pure and graceful beauty by their side. Such beauty can herself extract the best out of any man. Eyes were filled with admiration and seeing all this made Ryan's blood boil. She felt herself burning inside.
Not able to take all this anymore, she slammed the fork hard on the table and ran out without caring about anything, attracting everyone's attention towards herself.
Mr. Kim, who knew what his daughter was feeling inside. Something for which he meaninglessly blamed the man sitting in the front. Only if he has accepted her then she won't be feeling like this.
Though he knew his thoughts were wrong but still he did not care. If his unreasonable thoughts can bring his daughter, the happiness she desires then he was all fine. The only thing which he cares for, is her happiness.
Seeing her like this, he was also bitter inside. Not able to accept his daughter in such a situation , he said his words directly to the man, "Mr. Feng, aren't you going to make this woman apologize for the words she has used against my daughter? Is this the way you treat your guests?"
