Novel Full Chapter 1043 - Her Highness Is My Mother.
Li Xue leaned a bit to the side to look past Shen Bingling, only to find Xiao Meng standing behind her all terrified. Maybe the girl has caught the glimpse of the attack that has haunted her. So, to ease her up, she just blinked at her in assurance before putting a smile of comfort. "It's okay Meng Meng. I am fine. Don't get scared. Just wait for me, we will leave soon."
She said and the girl nodded to her but her forehead still held the wrinkles of worry.
Shen Bingling didn't change her demeanor. It was just a poor assistant, who has seen her. What could she do even if she has looked at her like that? She was already scared and it would not take more effort to scare her more. But what pricked her nerves was the calmness, Li Xue held in her aura even after finding her this furious. Did she not scare her enough?
"Li Xue, you …"
"Princess Shen, I think you had enough of drink for today. You should also leave first. As for your warning from before, I don't think I need it since I have no interest in whatever is yours. The job I got was particularly based on my merits. If you weren't able to grab it then it only meant that your profile didn't suit the needs of the chief role. And as for your other concern – that's about Prince Su. I also don't need him, since I have my man and I am not interested in others."
Interrupting Shen Bingling at the very first, Li Xue made herself clear. No matter whatever that cunning prince meant to do inside, she doesn't want any ruckus in her professional life. Especially she doesn't want to put up a war with an insane and spoiled princess every day.
When Shen Bingling heard her, she couldn't help but give out a mocking chuckle. Then folding her arms over her chest, she asked with an annoyed expression, "Huh? Really? You want me to believe that? You have a man in your life and you are not interested in any other. Especially when the other is someone like Prince Su? Are you considering your capabilities too much?"
Li Xue was not offended by her tone. Her lips that were pulled up in a smile, curled up more as she shrugged her shoulders. "That's up to you. If you want to believe then believe it. If you don't then I can't help you in any other way with your suspicion. Suit yourself as you want. For I know the treasure I have. In front of him, I can't simply look at any other man." She said with a friendly tone before adding something precious to the last.
"And also, Princess Shen there is something I want to advise you. Not for you don't know it, but for I feel that amid everything, you have forgotten it. It is good to chase after the man you admire, but to get him to accept you, you can't stake your dignity. You have been the only princess on the royal tree. I hope you would always have that in mind. After all, royal dignity is something everyone should keep." She said and then walking past her, she left.
"You … Li Xue, who asked for your advice?" Shen Bingling turned to stomp her feet. To which, Li Xue didn't turn, instead of waving her hands up in the air, she said, "That was just an advice. If you didn't like it, you can ignore it. Let's meet the other day, Princess Shen. I will leave first." She said as she walked away.
Once inside the car, Du Fan didn't take long to start the engine. Though he could tell something had happened given the terrorized expression of Xiao Meng, the eased expression on Li Xue kind of gave him relief. Otherwise, what would he have said to Young Master, if something really would have happened to the mistress? He couldn't even think of that.
Li Xue noticed Du Fan's gaze and turned to look at the girl beside, before reaching out to pat her hands. "It's okay, Meng Meng, I am fine. You can recover from it now. Nothing was so serious. Furthermore, do you think anyone could harm me that easily?"
Xiao Meng was still not comfortable. Shaking her head, she reasoned her worry. "But sister Xue, she was the princess of the royals. What could I have done, if she had really harmed you there? No one would have supported me since I am just a menial assistant to you. At that time of need, people would have just stood by her, and then how would have I faced Sister Xinyi? Moreover, it was just the starting day. From tomorrow the princess would be around you every moment. If she does something to you then …"
Panicking over such thoughts, the poor assistant just couldn't see past through her worries. To her at the moment, she really felt incompetent.
Li Xue understood her concern and feeling. So, caressing her skin softly, she said, "You are thinking too much, dear. Who said there would be no one to support you? I and Sister Xinyi will always be there. You can also reach Du Fan. Every day, he would be here for us and he will be more than willing to help you." She said before turning to look at the driver for confirmation. "Right, Mr. Driver?"
Du Fan nodded without thinking much into the words. But Xiao Meng was still concerned. "But Sister Xue, I …"
Li Xue shook her head. "Nope, listen to me first. Apart from these people, even, Her Highness and your cute and handsome Crown Prince would also not stay silent if they see anyone bully me. You can always reach them if you don't feel that I will not survive their torture. Believe me, they would always be there to help me." She said and didn't even realize when she got so much confidence in their new-build relationships with the people. But now, she could easily vouch that when needed these people would always be there.
"Really, Sister Xue? But why would Her Highness support you? Wouldn't she prefer to help her family?" Xiao Meng asked and nodding to her, Li Xue agreed.
"Yep, she would support her family first. That's why I said that she would support me and not that princess."
Xiao Meng's brows wrinkled as she wasn't able to understand it clearly, she asked, "But Sister Xue, you …"
"She is my mother, so of course, she would support and help me first. Didn't you witness it with your own eyes today? So don't worry about me. I would always have people around to look after me." Li Xue clarified, and the assistant blinked her eyes in stupefaction.
When recovered, she at once turned to Li Xue to ask, "Wait for a second, Sister Xue. What did you say? Her Highness is your mother? That means you are also a princess, that too an immediate princess. Much more close to the royal family roots. Whoa! I couldn't believe it."
Now that she thinks it that way, she could understand why the queen was so intimate with Li Xue and why Prince Su has before referred her with the title of Princess. How could she be so stupid to not notice that … But then why Shen Bingling …
Before she could even turn to ask about that, Li Xue answered, "Because not everyone knows this. This is a secret that I have told you. So, keep it to yourself. Don't reveal it to others, okay?"
Xiao Meng nodded. But then something struck her as she turned to ask, "By the way Sister Xue, earlier to Princess Shen, you said that you already have a boyfriend much more handsome than Prince Su? Is it really true?"
