BXBX NOVEL Chapter 780 - Assumptions are not truths.
Chapter 780 - Assumptions are not truths.
The days after the New Year passed really fast. When Li Xue got busy with her schedule, WeiWei also resumed her studies, while Feng Shufen also had many matters to attend to. Not only things related to Feng Internatiosn but also things that have come to his revelation in the past few days.
When all the three were away at work, the house in the forest also remained really silent. The maids and servants did their work but apart from working they also used to save some quality time for gossip.
In the past, because of the presence of Sister Margaret in the house, the maids used to remain in discipline and restraints. But now that the old lady has been away from the house for some good time, the new maids that have appeared in the house didn\'t take much time in influencing the old ones.
As a result, many talks from the start of the story came out, slowly and slowly creeping to reach the ears of Wu Jiaqi. Some truths while many others in the form of twisted gossip.
"What did you say? The lady had a boyfriend before and he has even come to meet her in the old house in the absence of Young Master", the Head Maid asked in a tone of surprise.
And the maid standing in front nodded at once. "Yes, Ms. Wu. The maids that have been working for Master at Little Carnations said that Madam\'s ex-boyfriend used to visit her at her place before. He is the CEO of some company. And they even said one day his girlfriend has come with her parents to create a scene there."
"Didn\'t Young Master say anything to her?" Wu Jiaqi asked, not understanding what kind of spell did the woman cast on the man to make him go so into her charms. Otherwise, aren\'t men always become angry seeing their woman becoming an eye charmer of other men around.
The maid shook her head. "No, Ms. Wu. Instead, the Young Master stayed at the lady\'s place for the whole night taking care of her".
At the information, the Head maid\'s fists only clenched tight. "How courageous! She must have definitely weaved a lie to make the Young Master believe in her story. Heh! Did she really think that she will sustain her position in this house with a lie?" The woman huffed thinking how sickly the Feng relatives will think of the woman when they will come to know about this.
"Ms. Wu, there are …" The maid was about to continue her words when suddenly paused looking at the little figure arriving from behind.
It was already late in the afternoon and in their talks they had forgotten to look at the time to notice that it was the time for the arrival of the little princess. Bowing her head at once, she greeted softly, "Young Li\'l Miss!"
Hearing the address, Wu Jiaqi at once straightened herself as she as well turned to bow and greet the little girl.
WeiWei smiled with her adorableness as she nodded. "Good afternoon! I am back at home." Her eyes slowly moved to look at Wu Jiaqi and then at the maid. "Complaining Aunt, are you still gossiping behind?" She suddenly asked suspiciously. Her voice held some severity but her eyes didn\'t lose their innocence.
Wu Jiaqi at once stiffened. Shaking her head, she hurriedly defended, "No, no, Young Li\'l princess! We were just discussing the remaining work left in the house. We weren\'t gossiping anything". She said and the maid standing there was all taken aback seeing the Head Maid getting so fl.u.s.tered in the presence of just a kid, and that too such a sweet one.
Li Wei looked at the woman and nodded. Though in her eyes there was still some suspicion, she always remembers her Mama\'s saying –
\'In this world, you can\'t change everything, sweetie. Show your small effort. If things change, then well and good. If not, don\'t ponder on it too much. Stay good and this world will automatically become good for you.\'
"Young Li\'l Miss, your bag and water bottle". While the little girl was remembering the words of her mother, Du Fan came from behind, holding her things. Earlier Feng Shufen had sent him to pick the little girl.
Little Li Wei turned and smiled in gratefulness. "Thank you, Uncle DuDu, for helping me and dropping me home. WeiWei really enjoyed the ride back home." She said, taking her belongings back in her hands and then waving goodbye at the driver.
Since Du Fan still needed to return to the company, he didn\'t stay long. Nodding, he left but that was not before giving a gaze to the woman at the front. From the last encounter at the back of the house, he has not forgotten her face. Though he had warned her of the things, he could see not much had changed in her attitude. Looking at her now, he could just shake his head internally and leave.
Wu Jiaqi didn\'t say much seeing him leave. But she has well understood the gaze he has given to her. To some extent that gaze was warning her of the future, but at the moment when she had a mission on Li Xue to attend, how could she care about the future?
Turning her attention back to the little girl, she asked, "Young Li\'l Miss, we will heat the lunch for you while you change and freshen up". She said and WeiWei again nodded with a smile, before walking up to her room.
Behind, Wu Jiaqi could only breathe in relief, before looking back at the maid. "Go and prepare lunch for the young Li\'l Miss."
The maid nodded with a bow and was about to go to the kitchen to complete the orders when suddenly stopped to say something that she had forgotten from before. "Ms. Wu, there is something more. The maids from Little Carnations were saying that it was the presence of the little princess that had changed the Young Master to such extent".
The Head Maid nodded. "Mhm. That would have happened sooner or later. After all, children are bound to bring changes in parent\'s attitude". She said with a contented smile but the next words of the maid changed the whole process of her thoughts in the next second.
"But Young Li\'l Miss is not the daughter of Young Master".
"What did you say?"
The maid coughed lightly, regretting her words. She felt like she had said something that she should not. The high-pitched voice of the lady was enough to scare her. "I am sorry, Ms. Wu. But it\'s not something I am sure of. It\'s just what I have heard from the previous maids of Little Carnations. They are also not sure of the truth, but since Young Master has drawn so close to the little miss in such a short time, they could only assume her to be his daughter".
"Assumptions are not the truth!" Wu Jiaqi said with some contemplation before looking upstairs with some thought. Though the little girl looks slightly like the Young Master, she could not believe the woman to be someone who could be capable of bearing the blood of Fengs in her w.o.m.b.
