Chapter 669 - Very Obvious.
"It's not about if I am finding your plans flawed or not. Rather, I want to ask you if you are solely planning for Chiboa's cultural and traditional promotion, or has the mother in you have become more desperate for a daughter?"
Yun Yuchun asked, staring at her friend for some moment, before shrugging off her shoulder and walking back to take her seat on the couch in the distance. "Don't think too much about it, Rui. Looking at you so excited for the thing, I was just curious."
Though the woman blew away the words calling it to be a joke, it still halted Chen Rui in deeper thoughts. She looked at the woman as if she was trying to contemplate her words for better but on a detailed view, one could easily say, it was not her friend she was staring at rather was looking at her own set decisions.
"Do you feel like I am that obvious, Yuchun? I thought I hid it well" Suddenly, she asked. Her eyes still pondered over but this time, while her gaze turned to question her friend.
Yun Yunchun smiled but then nodded without any hesitation. "Very obvious. But only if someone will start looking from the point of view of a mother. Otherwise, your idea regarding the amalgamation of two never dying trends is also great". She said and both the women smiled looking at each other.
"Mhm. I know. To be honest, I was planning to do this for a long time but was hesitating. But seeing Li Xue now at the front, I feel like I got both the chance and reason to try out". Chen Rui said, rising from her chair to walk to the couch where the other was already sitting.
Yun Yuchun agreed with some thought. "I see, your ways have yet not changed. You really have got great trust in the girl's competencies. I doubt what could bring such trust in her".
Chen Rui only chuckled out at that question. "What's the doubt there? I thought it was pretty evident. She is just like Tinming and to trust Tinming, I never needed a second thought".
Yun Yuchun nodded, "Of course, how could I forget, you two are the historic love birds of our era."
"Mhm-hmm. I won't try to deny the truth". The Queen positively said, pushing her shoulders back in obviousness. Then taking the receiver of the intercom from the front ordered the maids to bring in the tea.

On the other side, Li Xue soon reached the Aurora Fashions. She was about to get inside the store when suddenly paused on the voice of her ringing phone. Xiao Meng, who was also following her from two steps behind, halted in her steps beside her.
"Sister Xue, it's your phone ringing. Do you want me to answer it?"
Li Xue shook her head. "Thank you but it's fine, Meng Meng. The call is from Sister Xinyi. I will receive it on my own." She said before accepting the call and responding to it. "Hello! Sister Xinyi!"
"Oh, Li Xue, I got the text from Xiao Meng. You decided good. Complete your work at Aurora Fashions first, there is no hurry to reach here today. If you feel tired, get back home and rest. You can come to discuss the files tomorrow. We still have time for that and there is also something I need to tell you" Lin Xinyi said, once hearing the voice of Li Xue from the other side.
"Thank you, Sister Xinyi. I will decide, seeing when the work here gets completed. Though I am just here to give some measurements, we can still not be sure of time". Li Xue responded, giving a slight hum of thought to the lady on the call. But then pausing a bit with some thoughts, she asked with curiosity. "Sister Xinyi, you said there is something you need to tell me. Is it possible for you to say that now?"
Silence took over the call as both sides waited for a few seconds, until Lin Xinyi's voice came again. "Li Xue, don't stress over too many things. Just give your attention to Aurora's collection first. We will discuss the rest when we get a good time to talk".
To those deep words, Li Xue could only nod. "Okay, Sister Xinyi, I understood. Then I will go and look at the things here first." She said and then hearing a hum come from the other side, disconnected the call.
"What happened, Sister Xue? Did Sister Xinyi say anything about the people who visited today?" Xiao Meng asked, seeing the woman put away the phone after disconnecting it.
But Li Xue shook her head. "Nope, she didn't say anything now. Only asked us to look at the things here first. Let's go and not delay things any more. They must already be waiting for us". She said, giving a soft smile to the girl. Though she was excited to know the things from Lin Xinyi, she also understands the seriousness Lin Xinyi was asking to give to Aurora Fashions.
Turning back to walk in, she was about to get in the store when suddenly her phone again dinged with another call. She pulled the phone again up to look, who was there. But the contact id on the display screen only made her lips curl up into a smile. "Xiao Meng, can you go in and check the things first. I will take this call quickly and be there soon".
The young girl was confused for a second but still nodded and left. Only after Li Xue saw her getting inside the store, she received the call to say, "Mr. Beelzebub, calling me at this hour? What does this mean? Have you again forsaken sleep from your routine?"
"Mhm. A meeting just ended." The man responded, keeping his words less descriptive. And just by his voice, it became evident to Li Xue how exhausted he must have been all day.
Hearing his voice tired, she felt bad for him and instead of continuing the voice call, she transferred it to the video one. Feng Shufen accepted the video request readily but that instant acceptance brought a shrieking scream from the other side of the call, which only made the man frown on the screen.
