315: Hence winning the battle, she lost the war.

Hence winning the battle, she lost the war.

Li Xue was speechless. She looked at the man, trying to read the seriousness in his words. And the firmness in his expressions was stating that his words from earlier were not some joke rather a serious comment.0

"Making people see how a woman dominates you with her seduction … Do you think it's something about getting honoured?" Li Xue asked, not understanding the logic. Actually what this type of logical way this man follows to understand this world.

Feng Shufen again shook his head. "Not any woman! It's my wife seducing me. It's an honour for me to get seduced by her charms?" he answered with certitude.

Li Xue could not speak anymore. Even till date, she still has not understood when and how she became his wife out of blue. She was his fake girlfriend at a moment and all of a sudden was declared as his wife.

She has heard that men loved to call their girlfriend as their woman. Showing their right and possessiveness over them. But in her scenario, everything was different. The man has rarely called her as his woman rather has jumped to call her as 'his wife'. In one expression, he served the purpose of stating all her titles in his life.

"I won't sleep here" this time Li Xue stated her words firmly. Not like she was against the idea but more like she still does not want to hush the things. It was not like she lacked confidence in Shufen's self – control or careful conduct around her.

No, it was not that. She knew that he would never do anything that would hurt her. It was more like she was not confident about her own self. It has never been like this before but with this man around, she feels like her hormones get on the dominant side.

For some instances, she blamed her singlehood but slowly knowing her situation in a better light she came to understand that this was not something related to her singlehood rather to the tantalizing charms of the man that makes her lose her mind every time.

Knowing how worst the situation could get, Li Xue just could not take the chance to do something unforgettable and embarrassing. So there was no way, she was going to share the same room with the man.

Feng Shufen looked at her for a moment and then nodded with his own understanding, "Okay!"

The woman raised her brows at him as she repeated his words after him but in a questioning tone as if asking for his confirmation once more, "Okay?"

Shufen nodded again, "Mhm – hmm! You don't have to sleep here. Keep this room as your own. All your things will be here and if at night when you want to sleep you can go to WeiWei."

Li Xue looked at him with disbelief. Will that make any change? She will still have to visit this room frequently and maybe …

She thought shaking her head and was again about to reject the idea but before she could do that the man said, "You would want to freshen up after returning home from work. I have already prepared the water for you inside. You can go and get fresh. And I will go after you complete".

He said as he gestured her towards the bathroom.

Li Xue looked at him. The more she looked the more surprised she got. What was this? Were they playing a home – play? Why did she suddenly feel like a responsible husband who has come back from his office and his beloved wife has already kept the preparations of his getting freshen up in the bathroom?

"Should I help you pick your clothes out?" Suddenly Feng Shufen asked and Li Xue instantly jolted up to reject the idea, already forgetting the thought of rejecting his previous objective.

"No, no, it's fine I can manage on my own. You still have work to do. I won't hold you back. Please!" She said as she asked him to go and sit back at his place.

The man looked at her and confirmed, "Are you sure, you can manage?" His lips were again pulled to smirk at her, behind which Li Xue well understood the reason. She was again trapped so effortlessly that she, herself, did not understand it.

She was so beautifully bragging about the learnt war tricks the moment before, yet she forgot the most important thing that was required to keep in mind.

Never overjoy your success so much that you could not see your enemy approaching from the other side.

Hence winning a battle, she lost the war. Now there was no use to cry over the damage. "Yes, I am sure. I can manage to pick out my clothes myself" She said, stressing her words out in irritation as she turned on her heels to find the wardrobe.

But there was none around. "The walk-in closet is behind those curtains," Feng Shufen said, knowing what those beautiful eyes were searching for.

Li Xue looked back from her shoulders and said, "Thank you for letting me know". She said and then walked in the direction she was directed to. Though she was holding an expression of annoyance on her face, it was all known to both her and Shufen that it was just a pretence she was keeping to not put herself away from the blushing awkwardness.

Just when Li Xue went into the closet, Shufen's phone rang on the table near the laptop. He turned to look at it with a bored expression as he took his steps towards it. The display at once showed the contact name as Gao Fan. Connecting the call, he waited for the greeting from the other side.

"President Feng!" Gao Fan greeted. He was about to initiate to talk about the information he has made the call for but before he did, the man said on the other side.

"About the foreign client, tell them I accept their proposal and we could continue to invest in their project but I want them to increase the percentage of profit by 10% or else we could always withdraw back"

Gao Fan didn't fail to understand those words. His President knows well how and when to change the plans to make it go more favourable for the company's profits. Nodding his head to his orders, he said, "I will do President Feng!"

"Hmm …", Feng Shufen simply affirmed.

Understanding the cue to continue the words for which he has called, he said, "President Feng, Galaxy Light has again started to put their resources to promote Wen Sying as their main model". He informed and a glint of dark hostility crossed the man's eyes.
