"Madam, Sir has asked to bring you the breakfast", Sister Margaret said, knocking at the door.
Li Xue was perplexed at first, seeing the lady with the tray of breakfast. Her eyes, darting to look at the man back, not understanding his intentions. Didn't she already say that her appetite is full and she won't be able to have breakfast?
Just as she thought it that way, her stomach let out a hum of hunger from inside, clearly going against the determination of dietary plans she had made earlier.
"Now, I think you have an appetite enough to finish your breakfast", Feng Shufen said as he gestured to the old lady at the door to bring in the food and serve at the round centre table for Li Xue.
Sister Margaret smiled, then quickly sauntering inside the room presented the plate full of dishes to the lady. Once finished, she bowed a little and left the couple alone.
Li Xue looked at the breakfast plate. It was no longer the same she was having in the morning, rather both the dishes and the portions of the quantity has been changed on the plate. There wasn't any bowl of tasteless congee which she had prepared for herself in the breakfast, rather everything on the plate looked delicious enough to raise anyone's epitome of appetite.
Did he make Sister Margaret cook another plate of breakfast for her? When did he do that?
She glanced at the man with amazement filled in her eyes.
"What? Not liking the dishes? Should I ask Sister Margaret to make something different?" Feng Shufen asked, disappointedly looking at the dishes on the plate. If the food was not of her choice then how could it be better?
Li Xue looked at him, shook her head and then said, "Mr Beelzebub, I already said that I can't eat more and …" Before her words could get complete, her stomach betrayed her again and the man's brows got raised asking if she was sure of her words.
"The stomach is saying otherwise, I guess".
The woman sighed before saying, "Even if I am hungry, I can't eat too much, Mr Beelzebub. I am again back to my modelling career, now I need to restrain my eating habits. I cannot eat as I used to eat before, especially when I have not started any gym plans till now. I need to get stricter with my diet plans".
Feng Shufen's face turned a little serious as his eyes calculated her from top to bottom, before saying in a stiff tone. "You look perfect and stunning already. There is no need to follow any dietary restriction plans. If possible, eat more. A little more weight won't affect too much"
Li Xue looked at the man's sudden serious expression and could only purse her lips. Though she looks good, she, herself, knew that she was not that perfect. To attain perfection as before, she would soon need to join back her gym training sessions. At this point, she would even not hesitate in saying that Wen Sying looked much more perfect than her, based on the body figures they carry.
"Mr Beelzebub, the world of fashion is not as easy as everyone thinks. I would need to work hard to gain back the perfection, you are talking about. And dietary plans will definitely be there, in no way I could ignore that". She said as she picked the plate before taking a spoonful of food into her mouth. "For now, I am completing this plate since I neither want your thoughts to go waste nor the efforts of Sister Margaret. But next time, please don't bother too much about all this. Before also I used to be the same. I would manage the things myself".
Li Xue said stuffing more and more food into her mouth. Suddenly she was feeling hungry. She was not sure why there was a sudden change in her when earlier she had clearly made a mind to not eat much beginning her dietary plans. Maybe her appetite got too much affected by the persistent urges of the man, that it brought itself to give in to his demands. She thought about getting more positive of such thoughts. After all, when her inner soul could betray her for him, then it would not be hard for her appetite to follow the same suit.
She shrugged her shoulders off internally at her thoughts as she savoured the deliciousness of the food. She must say that the man knows all her choices well to tell what she was craving for.
Feng Shufen looked at her and made a mental note of something. She wants to have a dietician? Fine, he would become one for her. But there was no way he would let her starve in the name of the industry that works on making people suffer from hunger like this.
His hands at once went to grab the phone from the distance, before sending the text to his secretary. "Find the most dependable dietician." His face, all serious and stern, letting the world know how serious he has been even regarding the smallest thing of his woman.
"By the way, Mr Beelzebub, you still have not answered my question. On what have you suppress your laughter earlier?" Li Xue asked, stuffing her mouth with another spoonful of food. Her eyes at times glancing at the man, who was busy working on his phone and laptop.
Feng Shufen did not move his face to look at her, rather continued to search the things online himself. He needed to search for more and more information regarding things.
"Huh? Mr Beelzebub" She probed again when did not see any words coming from him. Her mouth busy chewing her food all softly taking its time while her eyes, waiting on the man to hear his words coming. The more he was delaying his words, the more she was growing curious.
"You were avoiding your breakfast earlier to avoid extra calories. And I got the plan to help you burn those extra calories with our discussion earlier so that you can get your appetite back. And it worked."
Hearing him say that Li Xue almost choked at her food. Coughing a little, she looked at her food and then back at the man with a gaze of accusation. This man … How cunning could he get?
"Be careful when you have food in your mouth. Don't talk much. Here, drink this water first", Feng Shufen said, extending the glass of water forward to her while with the other hand, patting lightly at her back.
Was she to be blamed? Mr Beelzebub, you are too much! Could you not be like this again and again?
