205: Blaming her for putting Sweet Delicacy in a mess.

Blaming her for putting Sweet Delicacy in a mess.

Even though Li Xue did not know who was the person behind Feng Shufen's name, she was all confident in her Mr Beelzebub's ways. With a personality like his, there is no way in which the thought of professing his love would be similar to others.0

A diamond-studded bracelet, sent through another person's hand was not a fancy of love rather a fancy of wealth. And a person who was born with abundant wealth would never like to fancy it over emotions and his sincere gestures. That was characteristic of a nouveau riche.

"Li Xue, but …", Mia still felt unsatisfied. She wanted to say more but before she could continue to complete her words, a fruity voice rang in the air, making his presence known around. "Our Boss would never fall for some woman who's a show-off like her. Get some faith in him and his choice!"

It was from Chen Yujian. As he said those words, his eyes gazed at Li Xue, giving some confirming assurance to her. Like some Korean drama's Oppa preventing his girl from getting hurt. Li Xue almost could not control her eyes from rolling. This little young man was really no less than Qi Shuai!

"Okay guys, I was out all day long. And now that I have returned we are only left with half an hour. So it will only be better if we quicken our movements and wrap everything up soon. This will help us to get off work soon" she said as she motioned herself to the counter setting the things to clean.

The other two people also followed the suit. But suddenly an accusing aggrieved voice came from the entering corner. Chef Ning has come all the way to them, putting lots of effort on her sprained foot. No one has expected her to come like that. Her eyes were clearly blaming Li Xue for something that Li Xue herself was not sure of.

"Chef Li, what does this all mean? Have you done everything on purpose?" she yelled in a low pitch voice which has only been audible to the three people working.

Li Xue's brows got furrowed in confusion, not understanding what went wrong again. "What did I do Chef Ning? I don't think we have even got any proper time to greet each other since morning. So what actions are you accusing me for? I am all clueless."

"Don't pretend to be all innocent now. You know very well, what you did and about what I am asking you about", Ning Meiling was deeply infuriated, but she couldn't display her true reasons behind this sudden out lash.

"Really? You do? If you think I know everything well then you must also know why I did that. Please satisfy yourself with your own assumptions then. Because I literally have no idea about what you are talking about and neither I am interested to know. Feel free to put your assumptions at work to help yourself ".

Li Xue's choice of words might have been harsh but the tone of politeness she has used could just leave the people in a dilemma to understand the difference between her wrong and righteousness.

"You …" Ning Meiling bit her lips to restrain herself at first, then curling her fists she said with her full strength, suppressing the real reason inside, "You created a mess for Sweet Delicacy at Feng Internationals. How can you go overboard and complain about Ms Lin to President Feng? Have you not thought about the consequences it can bring to us?"

At the mention of it, Li Xue realized what it was all about. Her gaze halted at the woman as if she was trying to read her expressions or even more than that. Suddenly closing her eyes, she understood something inside as her perfectly sculpted lips lifted up from both sides.

"I did not complain anything to President Feng, Chef Ning. Complaining or accusing someone is just not in my nature" she said, opening her eyes back, giving an expression of knowingness on her face. That look of hers was alone enough to provoke the enemy to an extent of no return.

"Huh? Do you think I will believe your words? I believe the facts and proofs", Ning Meiling said, folding her arms up over her chest, giving an attitude of having an upper-hand in the situation. But Li Xue's nonchalance was simply not giving her any chance.

"If you haven't complained then how can Ms Lin have been asked to give her resignation?"

Li Xue was a bit surprised at the news. Her words to Mr Beelzebub earlier had nothing about Ms Lin, it has never been in her plans to tell him anything from before.  She has never thought that the woman's career at Feng Internationals would be really brought to an end. 

Not like she was in favour of Ms Lin, rather it was more like she did not want to grab people's attention. But now since it had already happened, there would be no use of backing out or staying low.

Shrugging her shoulder back and maintaining the smile on her lips, she said, "I really appreciate you for believing in facts and proofs rather in someone's words Chef Ning but I don't remember me ever asking you to believe my words. Furthermore, I don't think Feng Internationals operates on my words and complaints. If it had been then things would have been more interesting and less profitable there".

"…", Ning Meiling was again wordless. She wanted to retaliate but no perfect way of retaliation was coming to her senses. Gritting her teeth, she could just throw her glares at the woman but they were also not making any harm to her confidence. Why every time in front of her, this woman seems to become the invincible one.

"And about putting Sweet delicacy on a mess. Any such sort of thing is not coming from my actions, Chef Ning. Suspending an official, who misuses their power and position can never be a wrong choice for any company. And I am sure Feng International has enough capability to find a suitable one for that position soon. We don't have to fear or stress over higher-ups' decisions, unless …" she paused ambiguously in between words, creating a little suspense in the air.

"Unless and until we are the ones losing something at the end. And in this scenario I don't think, me or Sweet Delicacy losing anything", she added her words to complete her previous incomplete sentence.

Even though nothing was clear in her words, Ning Meling still felt a chill run down her spine when her eyes got locked with hers. It felt like her secret was out. Not able to take the suspense anymore she asked out of anxiousness, "What do you mean and why are you looking at me like that?"
