Chapter 775 - Carve in memory.

Wen Sying proudly smirked internally. An ugliness flashing in her eyes, showing how evil one\'s soul can be. \'Li Xue, did you really think I would let you slide off this easily? Though I could not do anything to you, still I have many pawns that could help me ruin you. Snatch Wenting from me? Only in your dreams. Let me show you who is the ace in the game.\'

Wen Sying looked up at Liu Hua. She didn\'t miss the viciousness she could see in her eyes. She was contented to find her that way. Though for a mother, thinking this ill for her daughter was crazy and none could do that. But for some reason, she couldn\'t understand why the lady was so disfavoring for her own blood and supportive of her.

At first, she merely thought it was for the modeling career which Li Xue chose. But looking at the lady she could say that this woman simply hates her own daughter to her core. Against her daughter, anyone would come to be a better choice for her.

"Aunt Liu, I won\'t stop you if you could bring me back my Wenting. I truly love him a lot. I can\'t miss him. Apart from him, I don\'t have anyone in this world. I am all alone." Wen Sying suddenly wrapped her arms around Liu Hua waist and sobbed hard, putting her head onto her stomach. Her tears slightly soaking the dress of the woman.

Looking at her like that, Liu Hua was not able to control herself. Sadly but determinedly curling her lips, she c.a.r.e.s.sed her hair lovingly. "Silly! Who said you are alone? We have not gone dead yet. I might not consider that wench as my daughter but have always taken you more than her. So, never say that you are alone in this world. You will always have me. And as for Wenting, I have plans. Don\'t worry, no one will be able to snatch him away from you. Especially Li Xue."

She said and Wen Sying meekly nodded, like a daughter who always believes in the arrangements of her mother obediently.

While somewhere else, a man was resting on the lounger near the swimming pool, enjoying the sun when he heard someone approaching him from behind. His hand at once went to clench on the dagger that was kept near him. But even reaching it, he did not move, as if waiting to see if he was getting approached by a friend or a foe.

"Prince Su! The gifts were delivered to the royal palace and our people said, Her Highness has really liked the painting." It was the assistant who has come near following the brisk steps.

The hand that has gone to get the dagger retracted with ease as the expression on the man\'s face also came of nonchalance.

"It doesn\'t take time to make people believe otherwise of your intentions. Just a small lie, a little of the smile, and some positive compliments. And the fish of belief comes in your trap to get trapped."

"Her Highness later sent that painting away with the rest of the gifts but there is something else that has come to our notice." The assistant reported, with a little thought and seeing the man nod in approval, he continued. "This year the royal palace has sent out the gift to someone and it is said that Her Highness has personally prepared the gifts herself to send out".

Su Ce\'s expression at once changed to something of astonishment first before turning into amus.e.m.e.nt. "Mhm! I see. Is that useless gold spoon brat getting engaged early? I never knew that His Majesty and Her Highness was so desperate to get him a wife." He said as towards the end of his words a chuckle left his lips.

But his assistant just shook his head in polite denial. "Those gifts weren\'t sent to any future relatives of the royal family, rather were sent to the name of some lady, Li Xue."

"Li Xue!" Su Ce re-emphasized the name, remembering a kind of familiarity that he felt with it. His eyes, getting a little perplexed with thought before turning to look at his assistant. "Have I heard that name anywhere? I feel like …" He didn\'t complete his words, rather let his assistant understand the rest on his own.

Nodding, the assistant at once replied. "Yes, Sir. You have heard her name. She is the model that will be partnering with you in the cultural assignment."

Su Ce paused. Something in his eyes flashed but it disappeared the moment it came. "Seems like I would need to carve this name in my memory. I couldn\'t afford to forget it so easily. Li Xue! Interesting!" He said, his lips curling up showing his charms to the fullest.

"Should investigate the details of her background?" The assistant asked, for once not understanding what exactly the young prince was trying to say.

But to his question, the man only chuckled out. Instead of replying a word of his to the man, he put down his leg from the lounger and reached the glass of fruit juice leisurely. Taking a soothing sip in, he smiled at his assistant and said, "If you think investigating her will be an easy task then go for it. But for once I feel like doubting your promise. Not because you are incapable but because I just have a feeling that the woman is not simple".

The assistant felt a little hurt but he didn\'t let the man notice it. "I will try my best, Sir." He said before bowing in respect and walking off.

Behind the prince just shook his head and re-uttered. "It won\'t be easy, dear. To get such treatment from Her Highness can say that alone."
