Chapter 146 - Was There No Way To Win Over The Devil.
In the mood of cooking! Dinner at his place! Does she have a death wish?
Li Xue remained wordless for quite some time, trying her best to collect all the words that could support her in front of the Devil. When she thought that she was ready, she brought her words with a polite smile. "President Feng, …" but before she could even start the man shot a look of confusion at her, making her lose all her thoughts and words.
What's with this confused look? Did I ask him something? No, I am yet to voice out my words. She questioned herself, getting baffled at his 'out of blue expression'.
"Did I say something that confused you?" she asked with her own baffled face, tilting a little sideways to examine his expressions more properly. At this moment looking at her anyone could say from where the little angel has got her sweet and adorable gestures from.
"At what time does your work slot at Feng International end?" he asked plainly, looking at her. Little Li Wei, who was also in his arms, looked at her mother, smiling to let her know that the question was quite easy and she could tackle it without any help.
His words brought more confusion to Li Xue's head. She looked at him for a good moment of time trying to figure out if there was any other trap in creation but when found none, she replied, "Its usually in the second half of the day … Ummm nearly at 3 p.m. That's why it's easy for me to pick Li Wei after work since her school time is from 9.50 a.m. to 2.50 p.m. with an extra one hour for other interactive activities".
She explained with all obedience when suddenly she stopped in her tracks. Her eyes held a question for him. Before she can voice it out to him, he worded out the answer for her question with a straight face. "I am the Boss. So I can manage whenever I want and I have completed all of the works beforehand so there is nothing wrong in having some free time for myself"
Was he explaining his work schedule to me? The first thought Li Xue got when she heard him say that but then shrugging off all those thoughts she came back to the original point she was missing at the scene. "President Feng, I …"
"At this moment neither you nor I am in our work hours, so I don't think there is a need for you to address me with the tag of President. Or do you want so badly to make the President of Feng Internationals accompany you to doctor and drive you here and there? If you want then I have no problem with that too", he paused, as a smirk got over his lips then he added, "After all the President Feng of Feng Internationals will be happy to be at his wife service"
Truly Mr Beelzebub! Li Xue was all stumped at his words. How did she get on this topic again? Blinking her eyes at him she punned, "Haha … Mr President, how can I think of that?"
"You are still thinking the same, I am sure of it", he said, raising his brows at her words once again.
"But ...", she thought of something and then looked at the man. Her demeanour changed, eyes getting a little sly and tricky, giving hints of naughtiness to her personality. It was Feng Shufen's first time seeing her like this. He has always seen her polite and formal, in the rarest case he has seen her in her angry mode but with such naughty look …
Looking at her like this, he was just not having any control over the heartbeats that were turning more and more erratic every passing second. Those deep amber eyes were just stealing something inside him. His heart or his sanity, he can't be sure but there was something he was definitely losing inside.
"Fine, let me take your words and thoughts seriously then..." she said with the smile which was already playing beautifully over her lips, making his heart twitch. It was becoming hard for him to maintain his tough expression on his face.
"Mama's crafty mode is active! Time to get careful!" Little Li Wei said with a robotic tone as if some video game system was giving a warning notification to the players online. Feng Shufen looked at the little, of course, he had heard her warning and that warning had arisen the wave of interest and curiosity in his heart.
He was about to ask more but this time Li Xue was a little different with her ways, a little unexpected. Before he could say anything, she said with a slightest authoritative tone. "There is nothing behind those words, President Feng. What I was saying is that let's get the things according to you. Let's be friends as you want. I will be happy with that. From now on, I will be formal with you when we will be at work, fiancée to you when you need me as one and for the rest time we can be friends and we can share our stories with each other same like friends do"
She explained her thoughts and then suddenly asked a question when she saw his expressions getting doubtful for her. "Are those words sounding crafty to your ears? Do you think I will take advantage of you?" She can't let him think more around her words or her plans will fail on its own.
Feng Shufen looked at her and replied her words with his own soft gaze. "Taking advantage of me? I don't care about it if you are the person responsible. And as for your offer, I don't see any harm with it. Wife is also treated as a life-long friend. Let's do that then. From now on I take you under my love and care as my employee, friend and my one and only lovely wife"
Hearing his words, Li Xue wanted to hit her head on some hard surface. Was there no way to win over the devil?
