Chapter 490 - Make the first chance itself to be a splendid one!

Li Xue's expression froze the moment she heard Su Fai mentioning the name Lin Xinyi.

Lin Xinyi! Was she the same woman she was thinking of? The once fashion queen of Chiboa. The tag of the queen itself was enough to let anyone know the height, the woman would have climbed in her career. Her reign in the industry was flawless until one day she mysteriously left the country.

No one knew what happened to her. Her fans along with many other profiteers tried to search for her but no traces were left behind for their clue.

Li Xue's stomach clenched with some mixed emotion when she felt that maybe the woman could be the one in her thoughts. She was feeling a wave of excitement erupting inside her but at the same time, something was also keeping her zing reigned in the situation. She was still standing a step behind from where nothing was clear, only the back of the woman was on her show.

She wanted to lunge forward and confirm her thoughts but something inside her was keeping her rooted in her place.

"Hello, Sister Lin. I am Li Xue. Please take care of me" She said with a full confident voice as she waited to see the woman turn-in response.

Su Fai smiled shortly at her words. Was this woman trying to butter her manager on the very first day? Not bad! It will only be good if she could impress the woman on her own as it was already tough for him to make her come here to this point with his negotiations. He still could not believe that he has been successful in persuading her here.

In response to those full of manners words, soon the woman turned and said humming lightly in response. "Hmm! It's nice to meet you, Li Xue! Hope you will be able to cope with my criteria of working. If not, then I am sorry I don't think I will be able to take you under my care". Lin Xinyi said, her words coming out all sharp and pierce, ready to make anyone lose their confidence at an instant.

But Li Xue was not the one in that category. Her eyes did not lose the shine of confidence instead several glitters of admiration were added to her gaze. How could she not admire the lady who has once been her ideal? Seeing her now, in front of her eyes, definitely was an overwhelming feeling for her to take.

She simply stared at the lady. Though her aura no longer has the same charm as it once had, she was still a beauty that could hold anyone's gaze at herself. Even with round, heavy frames over her black orbs and tight-fitted black dress suit, her beauty was something that could not match any other.

The words of Lin Xinyi, even brought Su Fai to anxiousness. "Hey, Xinyi, what are you saying? You have not …" His words started again to do the negotiations but when saw the woman raising her hands up to stop him uttering any further, he paused. His eyes helplessly went to stare at Li Xue who was still admiringly looking at the woman at her front.

Did this woman even hear the challenge she has been presented to? He was confused as the smile on her expression was saying otherwise. But soon his confusion got cleared when he heard Li Xue adding her words of agreement.

"Sure, Sister Lin, I would love to accept and win all the challenges you will bring me into. Because at the end of the day, your guidance and challenges will help me pave my way to success". Li Xue said, maintaining the smile that almost bedazzled the appointed manager in front.

Lin Xinyi looked at the girl. Her eyes, not missing the confidence, enthusiasm and honesty in her gaze. With these three in her hold, no surprise she succeeded in her test. Her lips curled a little on one side as she gave a light lopsided grin. Nodding her head, she agreed, "Fine then, I take you under my care from this moment itself. And about your past …"

She paused as her eyes swept to look at Li Xue from head to toe. Looking at her this close, she could never deny the beauty she has in herself. It was not just her clean and flawless face and lean, slender body that was making her an exquisite beauty around but even the sharp aura was perfectly supporting her features.

No doubt, she was one who got badly involved in some scandal years ago. Her personality and face were the ones to make women go envious of her while any men stake their dignity and reputation.

On the mention of her past this abruptly, Li Xue was also taken aback. Without any say, she knew her past was a hindrance for her that she could not change but losing such an important opportunity of working with her ideal, Lin Xinyi because it was something she would never accept.

"Sister Lin …" she started to put forwards some explanation but the other woman was quicker than her.

"Your past is not my concern. CEO Su has said that they will manage everything. I am liable for your future but then again, your success will not just be dependent on my efforts. I can only help and guide you as per my knowledge and experience. The rest of the way you have to pave on your own. As I said, you have to match my expectations first or else do not expect any mercy of the second opportunity from me. Did you understand that?" She asked in one tone, giving no room to raise any buts and ifs.

That was enough! Li Xue was not a person to seek second chances. She was one to make the first chance itself a splendid one. "I got that, Sister Lin! I won't give you any chance to regret choosing me!" She said and Lin Xinyi instantly turned around to sign the employee contract papers that had been kept ready for her to sign all this while.
