Novel Full Chapter 867 - Eating One's Own Words.
"Sister Xue!"
Li Xue paused in her steps when she heard Xiao Meng's voice from behind. Smiling, she turned to look. "Good morning, Meng Meng!"
The young girl looked around at the people, her eyes trying to warn them but having no effects on the people around. She was just a little girl around the company about whom no one was interested. Pursing her lips, she shrugged off their unimportant gazes before running to Li Xue with all her might.
"Good morning, Sister Xue! You are here. Sister Xinyi has been waiting for you. Come, quick with me. I will take you away from this useless chaos. These people have nothing useful to do here so they are just wasting their time" Meng Meng said, already tugging onto Li Xue while looking around the people.
Li Xue also stared around. Her expressions turned weird as she looked around at the people. Of course, she knew better how much the people around them have no good work to do. But she also had the idea that she was the one to give them the reason to be like this. After all, if she had been in their shoes, more or less she would be also the same.
Might be not up to their extreme extent, but still somewhere near. Because at the end of the day, she couldn't deny the charm all those men had yesterday. Though not something comparable to Mr. Beelzebub, still who has really seen the charisma of the Devil, except for her.
Li Xue's lips curled slightly on the corners as ignoring everyone she removed her hand from the grasp of the girl before bringing it to pat on her shoulders. "It's okay, Meng Meng. Don't exert yourself too much. I am on the way to Sister Xinyi and will reach there soon on my own. But there is something I need your help with. Can you do me a favor?"
She asked and for a moment, knitting her brows in confusion Xiao Meng nodded but asked with slight concern. "What is it, Sister Xue? Have you really run into some problems?" Like a grown responsible assistant, she was ready to take all of it on her own for the sake of her Boss.
Li Xue looked at her and found her cute like that. Then deepening her smile she said, "It's nothing too serious. I just want you to take care of someone for me."
"Is there someone here, Sister Xue?" The assistant asked, turning to look back in the direction from where Li Xue had entered. Her eyes searched to find if there was again the same troop of men following her. But not finding anyone, she reverted to look back at her. "Huh? Whom should I take care of?"
"Uff … get some patience girl. Let me complete my words first. I am asking you to go out to the company's parking lot. In my car, there must be a driver. It's his first day accompanying me here and I fear that staying at one closed place like that, he would be bored. So help me invite him in here and accompany him for a while. Till then I will go and visit Sister Xinyi"
Li Xue explained. Though it was not necessary, still in a true sense she felt like being sitting out in the car like that the man would be bored to no return. Furthermore, she wasn't sure until when she would be able to explain things to Lin Xinyi. It may take her a few minutes but it might also take her hours. And she doesn't want Du Fan to suffer around her the very first day.
Xiao Meng heard and hearing it, her expression changed. Though the reason behind the change was still unclear, still with the tiniest bit of creeping blush on her cheeks, somewhat one could guess the reason. Nodding, she at once agreed. "Okay, Sister Xue. I will go straight away. But …"
"But?" Li Xue asked with a slight urgent tone as she pulled her wrist up to check her watch. She was getting late, no doubt. "But, what dear?"
The little assistant hesitated for a second but then, putting a small deliberate smile, she continued, "But Sister Xue, could I ask you something?"
Li Xue nodded wordlessly, keeping her patience in check and according to the ease of her personality.
"Is your driver also as handsome as the men from yesterday? Is he also …?" Xiao Meng asked but her question paused halfway when she saw Li Xue raising her brows at her.
The assistant's lips got pressed in a straight line as at once her gaze glued down at the floor, avoiding the questions from Li Xue.
But at the front, seeing her so shy, Li Xue smiled. Shaking her head, she simply replied to the young girl's eager concern. "No, he is not one from that group. But you can consider him also to be similarly handsome. But I am not too sure of the measure. Go and check yourself while I will make my way to Sister Xinyi now. She must be waiting for me." She said before turning to walk away the very moment.
Seeing her leave, Xiao Meng nodded to her own, trapped in her half-thoughts before as well turning to get on the job. But that was not before giving a last look to the people around who were still whispering their thoughts and curiosity among themselves.
"Why are you guys still standing here? Don't say you are also curious about Sister Xue's driver as well? Haha … weren't you the only people backbiting her and talking rubbish about her background, moments before. Don't say, now you all are eating your own words. Sigh, what was I even expecting from useless people like you all?" She said, huffing out with some disdain before walking out.
Behind her, the people were left enraged. But there was nothing they could do except for getting curious about Li Xue and her background.
While on the other side, Li Xue soon got out of the elevator on the eleventh floor, heading straight to Lin Xinyi's room. Giving a knock at the door, she pushed it open to ask, "Sister Xinyi, may I come in?"
