Chapter 1369: Priority.
Neither the guests at the venue nor Bai Yuchen understood what she meant. His brows furrowed as he slowly stood up to ask, "What do you mean?"Li Xue who was still staring at Feng Shufen slowly darted her eyes at Bai Yuchen. At first, her gaze held a hint of coldness but soon it got replaced with casualness as she said, "What I mean was very simple CEO Bai. I simply confessed everyone that my fiancee is really possessive and can't see other men proposing to me."
"And since he is like that, and I love him, I can't bear to see him getting upset. So, sorry but even if it gets embarrassing for you, I can only reject you straightforwardly. After all, pleasing the husband dearest is always beneficial for a wife."
She said and her every word was coming more confusing than the other. While the guests and reporters were having a hard time in deciding if Li Xue had an affair, an engagement or a marriage, Bai Yuchen was getting suffocated with either of the possibilities.
"Li Xue, what are you talking about? I never heard of you having a boyfriend before?"
Li Xue couldn't control her chuckle. Giving a small laugh, she slowly rubbed her nose and said, "CEO Bai, did you forget I am a model and we aren't that close?"
Since Bai Yuchen was having a hard emotional time, he simply wasn't able to comprehend the simplest thing. His brows tugged together more deeply and Li Xue understood his confusion.
Although she was not a bit sympathetic towards the man, she still felt it was only right if she trample on all his hopes and set him free.
So, keeping her smile, she added, "CEO Bai, don't be confused. With my statement that we aren't close I simply acknowledged our professional relationship. And since we share work related premises, you know I can't share my personal details with you or anyone related to my work. So, you never heard of it. But I always have one".
"Otherwise, why do you think I keep refusing you? I mean you are still the man many girls dream of. It's simply that I already have one from whom I can't get over." She said outright and at her revelation like that, the reporters wanted to rush forward with their curiosity.
But then the sight of Bai Yuchen held them back for some moment.
On the other hand, Bai Yuchen didn't know how to respond. He has come from a humble background but never in his life has he gotten embarrassed. Be it in the school, or in university or even in the industry field, he has been acknowledged by all for his capabilities.
And that's from where his confidence came. He knew Li Xue won't be easy to please but he also thought that as long as he would make efforts, she would agree.
But never in his dreams, he thought that she would reject him like this. And what stunned him more was her revelation. The bewilderment increased so much that he went into the zone of denial.
"Li Xue, you don't have to be so outright to reject me. I can wait for your reply but just to reject me you don't have to come forward and say that you have a man. Your career could get on stake. Shouldn't you be mindful of it?"
He said and Li Xue blinked her eyes in surprise at him. She never expected him to say that. "CEO Bai, you think I am lying about it?"
"What else could it be?" Bai Yuchen countered confidently and at that moment, Li Xue smiled.
No one understood the reason behind her smile right away. But when followed her line of sight and saw Feng Shufen walking towards her before getting to stand behind her, their brows tugged together in confusion.
"What is Li Xue speaking? She has someone."
"I don't know whether she is just blabbering or telling the truth. But I can say she has become overconfident in her capabilities. Her career can get ruined after this."
"Aye, leave her for the moment. The truth about her will soon be revealed. But before that tell me, don't you feel odd. Why did President Feng go to stand behind her? Is he supporting her?"
"Are you crazy? Why would he do that when she has been so offensive to him earlier? This must be mere coincidence."
People talked as they tried to speculate in their thoughts. But everyone still found it incomprehensible.
Bai Yuchen felt the cold thrills down his spine. The presence of Feng Shufen around was simply too intimidating.
"CEO Bai, I don't know what made you think that I could lie about this thing. But believe me I never thought that my relationship with the man I love could scare my career. And even if it does, I can be confident to not pursue that career again. Because I know how to prioritize my belongings. And to me, my love and family will always be my priority."
Li Xue spoke. She doesn't know what made her too confident. Maybe it was her belief in her thoughts and personality. Even if she has forgotten everything, she still believed that even in the past, to her, her love life and family would have been the things that she couldn't put on stake.
And if Feng Shufen was the man she loved, then he must have been her priority. So when she spoke things like that, she stood firm in her stance.
"Although I don't have to prove my personal life to anyone, still since it's to set you free, I don't mind doing some social job. I have got my boyfriend here, so you can believe my words just seeing him in front of your eyes." She said before taking a step back to stand parallel to Feng Shufen and then reaching out to hold his hands, right in front of everyone's eyes.
People around were all dumbfounded at the sight.

NOT RELATED TO CHAPTER.
Dear readers,
Many comments are quite depressing for me to read. I have said this before as well reader's comments holds importance. How do you think I can write in a good way when what I hear from you all is just disappointment.
I don't know how should I explain it to you. The plot has been written before the chapters and I am just continuing according to the plot. If you are not able to digest it, I can't help you with it.
As for my schedule, if you have been on this book's journey from before, you must have known that in the two years, I rarely took breaks. there was always 2 updates on the book whether I was sick or in pain. At that time there was all good from your side. and just a month ago, when there started coming irregular updates, you are all cursing me as if I have been your slave all this while. Don't get offended but believe me your comments are really pissing me off. You all don't know what I am going through yet you all are commenting about me as if you know it all. Please be a bit humane when you comment.
My studies and my passion for writing are my thing to look after, none of you can come and tell me drop one if I am unable to manage it. I am writing a story for you read and enjoy. But get this to your understanding that I have studies to do as well. My exams are in the next three days, so for the next three days my subject study is my priority. The new update of the story will come on 16th September. Even though I am not sure, I will still hope for all of you to understand .
Also, there was one reader who mentioned screenshots of several books, letting me know how they are updating 3 to 4 chaps per day. Those were translation novels to say, and to let you all know translation novels are completed novels where translators are updating it by translating it. I am not looking down at their efforts,my motive is just to tell you that those people work as translators and mostly do their job as full timers. As for many authors, they have dedicated themselves to writing but I still have some aim in my life to achieve. writing stories online is my passion and hobby but for that I can't ignore my studies which will be greatly needed in my future.
Yours truly,
Scarlet.
