Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 188 - Fear the Devil, you people!

Back at the ground floor of Feng Internationals,

Was she kidding him? Letting her wait here … The Devil would just ruin everyone if he came to know that someone has dared to make her wait and that too in his own kingdom and with his presence nearby.

"Haha … Xiao Xue, there is no way I am going to leave you here alone. You will get bored and I can't neglect my responsibilities towards you", Qi Shuai started with small laughter but as he went towards the end of his words, his tone became a lot firm and serious.

But Li Xue was a little jumbled at his words. "Responsibility towards me?" She asked, not understanding exactly what responsibility she has become of the man. As her superior, in no way he was responsible to accompany her and … Before she could think any further, the man in her front asked her all accusingly.

"Xiao Xue, what do you mean? Of course, I have to be responsible towards you both as your friend and …" he paused, looking at the people behind. Composing himself back into his cool but firm – serious aura, he leaned forward, a little near her. Seeing him leaning forward, Li Xue pushed her face slightly back, keeping her body still fixed at its place.

"And you are also our saviour against the Devil. I can't let you be alone here" he added with a slight whisper so that it was only the woman to hear her. Then straightening himself back, he said with a nod of confidence, "Don't worry, let me check with the receptionist first". Turning on his shoes, he walked directly to the reception desk where the receptionist was standing all stunned.

Though everyone was working in the same workplace, it was rare for them to converse among the people from different floors and departments. And talking about Qi Shuai, he was the next unapproachable person after Feng Shufen.

His air was warm, simple and easy but that doesn't mean he would become an entertainer for anyone. Be it the high official as Ms Lin or the receptionist from the front desk, he was all the same to them. Someone too formidable for them to approach casually.

So when the receptionist saw him getting so friendly and casual with the female Chef who had appeared just an hour ago, she could not help but think of her hidden identity, that was making her so special in their Director Qi's eyes.

"What is it with Ms Lin? Is she still busy? Check it once more", Qi Shuai asked directly as he reached the desk. His fingers tapping on the desk showing a little urgency, to make the worker work a little more faster.

Seeing the man coming and directly asking her the question, the woman's face was all fl.u.s.tered. She was one of those women who have always admired the charming personality of this man. Nodding her head, she quickly accepted the order. "Yes, Director Qi! I will check it once more".

Then moving her fingers in her best swiftness, she quickly added. "Ms Lin called a meeting with the staff under her, just an hour ago. That meeting lasted for 35 minutes. And after that, she has continuously kept her meeting schedule at Do Not Disturb status. So it still seems to be busy with something".

This piece of information even left Qi Shuai into puzzlement. At once, he understood that the woman was just taking advantage of her position to bully Li Xue but he could not get the reason behind it. He turned to look back at the Devil's treasured jewel, thinking if she had offended the people in some way. There seem to be some unknown chances but still, nothing made sense.

But who even cares for that? Even if she was offended, there was no way in which the Devil will allow anyone to bully her. Last night when Shufen said that even in her bad, he would love her. Those words were not just his words that he has said to build the air of romance and entertainment around or people jealous, rather that was his serious promise to the woman.

And his promise was something that could not be questioned even if a deadly calamity befalls on the whole planet!

Now he could only wish Ms Lin the best of her luck, 'May your position in this company rest in peace, Ms Lin. You have done something you shouldn't'

Walking back to Li Xue, he shook his head disapprovingly, making Li Xue give him an understanding grateful smile in return. "That's okay, Director Qi! I have already called my immediate superior and he said that he would talk with Ms Lin and get back to me soon. I can wait for it. Please don't hold your work back for me. You still have people waiting for you. Please proceed! I won't want to interrupt your work".

That smile of innocence instantly made the other people standing mesmerized like they have been bound by some spell. Her utmost respect and politeness have its own beauty that could enchant people like nothing less.

This was something that has also made Qi Shuai admire her personality. If it had been some other woman in her place, then with Feng Shufen favouring her she would not have cared to respect anyone or anyone's position but with Li Xue, it was so different.

Listing her exact qualities will not be an easy task but with what he has come to know about, he can define her as an innocent beauty with down to earth character, who will not care to voice out when sees anything going wrong and will also never take anyone's improper attitude. Her fierceness was the fire of her beauty that was perfectly hidden from people's eyes but could still attract the people around.

When Li Xue reminded him about the people still standing behind him, he turned to look at their spellbound gazes and shook his head. 'Fear the Devil, you people!'

"You all can go ahead there and proceed. Here take my card and push the bills on it" He said, extending his gold card to one of them and soon the people left. Then again turning back to Li Xue, he grinned with excitement, "Come with me, Xiao Xue! I still have one person that can help you with this report. He will take care of these small things easily".

As Qi Shuai said, a smile got on his lips which made Li Xue feel that this man was certainly up to something. She wanted to refuse him but when she caught the time on the clock fixed at the wall she was not sure of it anymore. Her time was already going wasted. And wasting time was the last thing she liked.

Nodding her head in agreement, she followed Director Qi in the direction he wanted her to.
