Chapter 572 - Angel\'s devilishness in disguise.
"Your past has nothing such that could waver me away from you. So better not be reckless to think that you could escape from me". Feng Shufen\'s expression suddenly turned all serious when he heard Li Xue\'s knowledge over the things. He was not surprised to know that the woman has read him all easily and perfectly. Since she has allowed him to look into her life as he wanted, he has also not put any barrier for her to do so.
But what troubled him the most was her melancholic smile and lack of interest in hearing his thoughts over things. Did she really think that just because of her some irrelevant past and trivial hurdles, he would push her aside? Who gave the right to her to look down on herself? Even if it was for her dark past, he has not given anyone the right, not even her.
Li Xue blinked her eyes as she looked at the man\'s tugged brows. He looked cute with the fear of losing her written on his face. But still, even if he looked endearing like that, she would not want frown lines to appear on his forehead.
Putting her hands up to ease the lines of creases formed on his forehead, she explained, "Do you think I have never tried to escape from you, Mr Beelzebub? I have tried many times in the past, but after searching every time, I only found you as the answers to all my search."
She paused as she lightly moved her thumb pads to brush over his cheeks and then under his eyes. "In this world, I have found only you as my escape. So, where do you think, I could go to get the escape from you. Even if I don\'t want, I am still all stuck with you."
Feng Shufen was satisfied with her response. He was not too good in poetry but whatever he heard, it felt like a most desirous poetic tune to his ears. "So, you feel like you are stuck with me?" He asked, adoring her with light touches.
"Of course! What else do you think?" Li Xue replied back immediately. "I am obviously stuck with you for my face. After all, I am not the one to leave the challenge after proposing". She added more giving a righteous smug face.
"Challenge?" The man was amused at her words. But knew well that the woman has always been a player in her own set games. "And what\'s that?"
Li Xue turned to look at him, before giving a devilish smile. "A challenge of seduction to Ning Meiling!" She said as her memories drifted back to remember her encounter with Chef Ning out Sweet Delicacy, the other day.
(FLASHBACK)
"Chef Li, don\'t scare me with your \'ifs\'. Things happened around on their own. I just wanted to get near President Feng for my love. But do you think loving the President Feng Shufen, the best man of the country is that easy?" Ning Meiling had shaken her head at her before continuing, "No, Chef Li! It\'s not. When people would get to know that you are someone eligible to get to stand by his side, they would not leave you alone. They would ask you to do the favours and helps. And what I did were just those bits of help. And I am sure when got a chance, I would let President Feng also understand this".
At that time, Li Xue could only smile at her explanation, thinking that either the woman has taken herself to be too intelligent or her to be too na?ve to think that she would make her buy those explanations.
How could even a woman eligible to stand beside Feng Shufen when they could not even handle their position with righteousness?
Li Xue has not held her chuckle back at those immature reasons before saying with disdain, "I understood, Chef Ning. But I think it should not be me on whom you should be putting your efforts of explanation rather save it for President Feng. After all, it\'s him who is concerned in all this, not me." She has said, pressing her lips with pity and then again turning to leave.
But that was only for Ning Meinling to stop her again with hurried words. "You are neither concerned nor capable enough, Chef Li, yet I am warning. You better stay away from President Feng".
"…" The steps were instantly paused. It was rightly said, not everyone learns the lesson with straight words. Some would always opt to go for adventurous ways. Li Xue\'s lips twitched as she only looked back over her shoulder, waiting to hear the woman complete her intending words.
"Though charming President Feng is not something just any woman would be capable of, still I would warn you because I won\'t want to see you disappear from the country someday. Being his Personalized Chef, I would advise you to better follow the rule around him and …"
"Why? Did Chef Ning feel like she would lose President Feng to me?" Li Xue wanted to laugh at her own words at that time. The man was already hers and yet people think they had the chance to have him. Sigh! How delusional the world can get!
Ning Meiling had bit her lips. "Chef Li, don\'t take yourself that highly. President Feng is not like other men that surrounds you"
Li Xue turned at once at her remark, before folding her arms over her c.h.e.s.t. "Seems like, Chef Ning wants to challenge me and my ways?"
"You …"
"Not a problem, then! I never let go of the challenges. Since Chef Ning has challenged me for President Feng, I accept it. I will do my best to seduce him to my beauty and charms" She said with an instigating smile but then paused with a pretentious scrunch of brows, looking at the woman at the front, "But if I succeed what would, I gain from Chef Ning?"
Ning Meiling was edged. Just a look at her would have let anyone know that she was not expecting things to turn out this way. "Chef Li, you are going too much …" she yelled with some agitation but Li Xue was not the one to back out after starting a play, especially when it was his man getting discussed in between.
"Oh, I almost forgot. It\'s President Feng, we are talking about. Of course, with him as a reward, will I have anything better to gain or anything less for Chef Ning to lose? Definitely not!" She had concluded with a devilish grin on her face, clearly edging the woman to no return. (Flashback ends)
Hearing her, Feng Shufen could only get amused at the story. People would have heard the stories of Devils doing the devilishness, but he was the first one to hear the angel\'s devilishness in disguise.
"You sure know well to play your cards and use the ace of your pack," He said, looking down at her and then pinching her nose. She was already cosily leaning over his c.h.e.s.t while sitting on his l.a.p.
The woman pouted at his words, before pulling herself away and asking, "What? Is there something wrong that I did? I was just interested to play while at the same time maintain our secret marriage".
The man smiled back before shaking his head, "You did nothing wrong? But I still have to ask, how are you going to seduce me? And when?"
