Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

"Hey, Li Xue, where are you going? Won't you tell me if you will take up the challenge or not?." Su Fai asked as he strolled after Li Xue through an almost empty corridor of the entrance hall. That was something weird, given how lively and gossipy his agency was. But even though it was weird, he didn't think much of it at the moment. 

Li Xue who was walking ahead by a step didn't pause in her movements, rather simply said without giving any concern. Since everyone already knew that they were friends, she didn't care to show any formality as it would always be taken as her pretense in front of others. 

"Why should I tell you that? Aren't you the CEO of the agency? There seems no position or reason for you to care about my personal things like this". She said, keeping her pace in walking. 

And at her mention of the CEO, Su Fai halted in his steps with some disbelief as he looked at Li Xue still proceeding with her steps. Only after he realized that she wouldn't be stopping for him, he ran after her. "Hey! Did you forget I am your friend as well? And also, did you only just realize now that I am the CEO who doesn't hold the position to get involved in your personal matters. What was before in the elevator then?" 

He asked, coming to overtake her step with his increased pace and coming to stand at her front. "At that time did you not think that you should keep your personal relationship a secret from me?" He asked again, raising his eyebrows at her, trying to let her know that this time he has got the upper hand. 

But little did he expect … her to be all nonchalant to his rebel. 

Li Xue shook her head while keeping her eased demeanor to say, "Why should I care? Sister Xinyi has said that she would handle it for me. Furthermore, I am sure being a CEO, you must as well know your side of gain and loss. You would not be reckless to offend me as well, as you also know I am a model who has one of the best potentials here". She said with confidence and her faith in herself was not false. She knew it well, 

Su Fai's expression changed. He opened his mouth to say something but then closed it, feeling that there were not exactly the words that could express what he wanted to express at the moment. 

"Li Xue, I was wrong to say that you have changed. You have not changed actually. It is more like you have returned back to your previous self where none would dare to think to offend you with their words of potential, nor like they are ever capable of." He said, surrendering to her power at once. 

Of course, not everyone could defeat her. Only one man has got the capability to do that. Her Mr. Beelzebub!

Su Fai has already given in, but then something struck him. Widening his eyes a little at Li Xue, he asked with some surprise. "Wait, Li Xue! What did you say? Lin Xinyi would help you handle it? Does that mean she already knew about you and …" 

Li Xue nodded and it only terrified Su Fai. 

"Do you mean she knows about you and President Feng? How did she react? Did she say something to you? Is she going to leave the company now?" 

Li Xue's brows knitted together in confusion as she looked at her friend. "Huh? Why would she leave the company? Yes, she knew that I was in a relationship and had a daughter. She was shocked at first but then she said that she would help me with it. Nothing else!" 

Su Fai's expression also turned into a perplexion as furrowing his brows he tried to believe what he had heard. "Really? Is she that supportive? I didn't expect her to be like that." 

"What were you expecting then? Don't worry, I know how to handle things. So I have only revealed things in fragments. I have revealed my relationship and life. But has not shocked her with the identity of the person." Li Xue said and it was then waves of understanding returned back to the man. 

Giving out a deep breath, he nodded. "Oh, it was like that. Now I understand why it was such an easy job. Otherwise, the world might have shattered under the truth." He said. 

And at his such exaggeration, Li Xue could not help but roll her eyes, pursing her lips. "Can you not say it like my relationship with my boyfriend is a taboo that could ruin the whole world?" She shook her head then walking past him, she waved her hand at him. "Fine, now that I have already reported things for so long, CEO Su, allow me to leave first. I still have things in my schedule to attend." 

Su Fai who has just got down from a roller coaster ride could only nod and agree. "Yes, yes, I won't hold you back now. I had enough shock and surprise for today. I should take a rest. You continue on your way." 

He said and with his such understanding obedient tone, Li Xue felt something odd. Though Su Fai was not like Feng Yi Lan, he was still nowhere too less than her. It was hard to believe that he had let her go that easily without getting the answer to the question he had asked first. 

Feeling something odd about his behavior, she turned back to look at him. Squinting her eyes a little at him, she asked, "Is there something that you are keeping from me?" 

The man shook his head and his gesture only made Li Xue more confident of her doubts. 

"Really? Then why do I feel like there is something you are hiding? Are you sure there is nothing?" 

Su Fai's face paled a bit but right when he thought he would lose, he heard a commotion happening at the front. His attention was diverted as so happened to Li Xue. 

"I think something is not right. Let's go and check first." He said before asking Li Xue to come along.
