Chapter 957 - Harsh Slaps For The Couple.
Wen Sying smirked looking at Li Xue's confidence over the fact. She never thought that for once, Li Xue would be so stupid to be adamant over such an easy topic. That too when she stands in front of Feng Shufen. The man whom the whole country considers to be the most charming one among every other.
Wasn't she digging herself a deeper pit? Though women are curious to know what people think of their looks, men were no different. They would never like to hear praises of other man in front of them. President Feng would be no different in such situation as well, given how he has always been pampered by the masses.
Wen Sying's lips curled up feeling the victory already. "You are too confident, Li Xue. Don't you care about President Feng's feelings? He is the most handsome one and in front of him you are praising some other man. What if he doesn't like it?" She said, deliberately putting her words that way.
Li Xue understood her intentions well but at her dumbness, she couldn't help but only chuckle internally. "What I am saying is the truth? If President Feng can't handle my honesty, I don't think that's my problem." She said to Wen Sying straightforwardly. Then turning briefly to look at the man, she asked, raising her brows at him, "Or is it my problem, Mr. Beelzebub?"
Wen Sying could no longer handle her smugness. Clenching her jaws, she gritted her teeth, "Li Xue, you already brought us here calling him Devil yesterday and today again you are appearing no less arrogant. Do you want us to become dead meat because of you?" She said, looking at Li Xue.
But Li Xue's eyes never turned to look at her again. She just stared at the man, all lovingly and stubbornly, as if waiting to hear him answer the question she has asked.
Feng Shufen shook his head looking at her play that she was deliberately playing to deviate his attention. Though he could already guess her intention, he could no longer bring himself to be upset with her.
"That's enough, darling! I asked you to leave before. Why didn't you leave?" Cutting short her chase, Feng Shufen directly asked, before taking out his suit jacket off himself to put over hers. His voice turning all soft and gentle just for her. "It's cold here. You might get sick."
"I am fine." Li Xue simply shrugged, finally seeing the man back to the warm side. She sighed with relief when found him no longer upset with her. Luckily, she found her redemption before it was too late.
Feng Shufen frowned with concern as he stared down at her to reason her care, "You are already shivering and bracing yourself tight. And yet you are saying you are fine." Earlier when he has seen her coming, the first thing he has noticed was her clothes. Not because she looked rushed, but for he knew the temperature of the underground base that has been kept at a lower degree.
Li Xue pouted. How would she know that the place would be this cold? When she left home, she has just didn't mind changing her clothes as she was comfortable enough in them. "Your fault. Who asked you to leave me alone?" She pushed the blame blatantly before properly getting herself suited in his oversized blazer that cover her frail figure.
Feng Shufen didn't care to argue with her. If she wants to blame him, she could do as much as she wants. He won't mind. Helping her fit the jacket, he tugged her hair strands behind her ears to ask, "Now, are you comfortable?"
Li Xue nodded with a hum. "Much better!"
As for the other couple at the front, they were struck dumb at the sight. The scene was out of their comprehension. Never in their dreams, they have dreamt of something like this.
Feng Shufen has gotten all easy and gentle with Li Xue, even addressing her as his 'darling'.
Zheng Wenting blankly stared at their soft gestures towards each other and couldn't help but feel the pinching pang in his heart. While for Wen Sying, she only noticed it now, that suit that the man was wearing all this while was the same special suit she has read about yesterday.
The other part of the couple outfit that Li Xue wore to their party last night. Only now she guessed to understand how it was easy and fearless for Li Xue to call the Feng Shufen as Devil in front of media reporters.
But how was that possible?
How could Li Xue be the woman to garner the interest of a man like Feng Shufen? Wasn't it too unrealistic?
But then again, hasn't Li Xue already said that she had a husband?
Then, did that mean she had married no other man, but Feng Shufen!
No matter, however, she thought of it, she felt like it was kind of something she could just never …
Before she could get more adamant on her disbelief, at the front she heard the cold secretary talking. But his tone of politeness kind of surprised her. Was that really him? How come he was so cold to her before but then so respectful to Li Xue now?
"Madam, please have some water. This is lukewarm and will prevent you from catching a cold." Gao Fan said, as extending forward, he politely offered Li Xue a thermos-flask that he has always carried for Feng Shufen.
Li Xue looked at him and smiled. Then without refusing him, she took the bottle to respect his care. "Thank you!"
Gao Fan bowed his head before stepping a step back to give some space.
While Li Xue turned back to look at Wen Sying to ask, "So, Ms. Wen what do you think? Was my confidence wrong? And CEO Zheng, what are your thoughts? My man is suiting the proper society standards, right?" She asked, and her question was like a harsh slap on the face of the couple.
Zheng Wenting was too drown in counting his losses and Wen Sying was burning inside. Her eyes were staring evilly at Li Xue as if promising the game was not finished yet.
You think that would be easy Li Xue. I will not let it be like that.. Let me see how well you will be able to flaunt when President Feng comes to know what steamy night you had last day.
