Chapter 52 - What does she have to deserve all this treatment.

Ryan was all shocked when she heard that name again. Though she had wanted to know who the woman was, she never expected her to be here and that too in this way. \'So this woman is Li Xue\', she said to herself as she scrutinized the woman standing in chef costume from head to toe.

Sizing her up from top to bottom, she tried her best to find if there was anything special in her which she or any other woman did not have. But however her eyes tried, she wasn\'t able to find any good in her.

This is what is like a woman\'s eyes. No matter how good the other woman was, but if they are compared to them, then she won\'t ever accept the superiority. Same was the case here, instead of finding the best qualities in Li Xue, Ryan was all busy in finding her bad points.

\'What this woman has to deserve such attention and treatment? She is not that beautiful like the other woman who has always been around him. Nor does she have any fashion style. She even does not know how to carry herself. Then how can she be lucky to get so much suited to Feng Shufen\'s taste? When did his taste become like this?\' she was drowning herself in the puddle of thoughts when suddenly someone\'s soft but firm voice brought her back.

Li Xue had already started to explain the dishes she had prepared. When looked, she had really prepared quite many dessert dishes. The Chief Chef who has been looking from the corner has not expected this, not after knowing that there were no helpers for her.

She has prepared fruit filled Czech dumplings \'Ovocne Knedliky\', a traditional summer dessert from northern Germany \'Rote Grutze\', a Spanish dessert \'Flan\', a traditional dessert from Scotland \'Cranachan\' and also Postres gourmet chocolate ball.

These desserts might seem easy to eyes but being a professional chef under such a big and luxurious brand, he knew very well how hard it is to bring different tastes all at the same time. Judged alone by the dishes she has presented on the table, he was sure of his mistake. This woman does not lack knowledge. Her experience might be less in comparison to them but still she was not lacking any skills.

Suddenly he felt all guilty. He has judged a book by its cover and has almost lost his hard earned name. Now there is no way, he will be able to hold his head high in front of President Feng. Not after doubting his choice and decision.

When Li Xue completed her words, everyone sitting on the table were quite amazed. She turned to look around, presenting a short polite bow to all. While moving towards everyone, when her eyes got over to look at the man who was sitting at the head of the table, a feeling of soft bubbling shiver ran through her skin. She was sure that his eyes were on her all the time she was here.

But why is he looking at her?

\'Didn\'t he already have her girlfriend with him? Why was he still looking at her like she owes all her life to him?" Her eyes trailed towards the elegant woman who was also sitting on the table looking at her with calculative eyes. When caught Ryan\'s such intense eyes on herself, Li Xue presented a polite smile to her but that wasn\'t returned back.

Her eyes were accusing her for something, but she didn\'t pay any heed to it. \'Why would her accusation be related to her? If she truly wants to accuse someone then honor that to Mr. Beelzebub, because it was him who was being the insensitive one in this situation\', she glanced at both man and woman\'s pair as she shrugged her shoulders back.

She was about to turn back and walk away to the corner where the rest of the chef\'s teams were standing but before she could, Gao Fan reached her side with long strides as he whispered, "Ms. Li Xue, you can\'t go to that section yet".

The woman turned to look at the secretary with her brows furrowed in confusion. From the moment she has met him, the only thing he was creating around her air was confusion. In the morning he confused her saying that she has got some privilege; then again that sudden bow he presented her when he brought that file and after that the weird dramatic sentence of preventing some damage.

And now, he was saying that she would not get back to the corner designated as the chef\'s waiting place. What does this man really mean?

She looked at him and asked, "Mr. Secretary, can you be a little less influenced by President Feng? His words are already very hard to contemplate and here you are giving me a hard time too. Why can\'t I go back to that corner.? I have already completed my work here. Now the only thing left for me is to wait for the results"

Gao Fan looked at her and could not prevent a smile coming on his lips. Now he could understand why his boss got so different around her. Maybe that was one of her charms that got his Boss\'s eyes interested in her.

The woman was taken aback by that smile. What does that mean? Did she crack some kind of joke? Nope, not at all. She was being very genuine here.

She turned to look around at the people who also had their eyes fixed on her. What was happening? Why haven\'t they started the meal yet? Maintaining her confused look, she turned to look back at the stoic secretary, "Mr. Secretary, tell me something. Why haven\'t they started the meal yet? Is there something still left? Or did any of us have forgotten something?"

Gao Fan also turned to look around and then reverting his eyes back to her he said, "President Feng is still waiting for someone? You have to follow me somewhere. It\'s President Feng\'s orders"

Saying his words, he gestured to her to come with him. But Li Xue did not take any of her steps with her intention to move. When the secretary did not feel her moving forward with him, he spoke in a hurried tone, "Ms. Li Xue, please we have to hurry. The guests are still waiting and so is the President. Please this way!"

Li Xue looked at the man whose orders were already getting on her nerves now. Her eyes moved on its own to look at him and the moment it did, he gave her a gesture of affirmation.

She was still confused about the sudden order but still something brought her to follow it. Something told her that this was her only choice, without any escapes. She followed the secretary out of the lunchroom, towards the direction of the President\'s office.
