Soon, after saying her words, Lin Xinyi left to make her way out of the cabin to start all the necessary preparations. Li Xue nodded politely to her and only turned back to look at Su Fai when she was completely out of the sight.
Smiling at the stiffened expression, the man was holding on his face, Li Xue said, "I must say CEO Su has got quite sharp eyes to recognize the person even at such dimmed and blurred form."
Su Fai's gaze shifted to look at the woman but the severity in his eyes did not change. It remained the same as the principal amount of the loan remains even after paying several instalments of interest.
"What? Are you still not happy seeing the evidence? Or do you think those will be no useful?" Li Xue punned, clearly avoiding the topic with which the man was trying to pierce her. "CEO Su, believe me, that evidence would be more than enough and you would definitely not need to pay any ounce during the lawsuit. Isn't that already a great thing to celebrate for?"
"Li Xue, avoiding the topic, won't make it disappear in the air? So, don't try it" the man finally sprouted out in disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e. His eyes blamed Li Xue for something that nobody can read around. "Was this the thing that you were having in your mind when you asked me to leave the things to you?"
"Su Fai, I was …"
"Do you even know; how dangerous it was for you to go there? But you still ignored everything to do as you want. Were these evidence that important that you even risked so much for it". The man added more, flaring in anger. He was just unable to digest the fact that the woman had endangered almost the whole of her just to bring some evidence.
Li Xue looked at him and pursed her lips at her words. She never knew that he would be reacting in this way. This was even worse than what Yi Lan has reacted like. "Of course, Su Fai, it was important. Without this how do you think I would have proven myself innocent. Do you think I have money to pay the hefty amount of compensation?"
Hearing her illogical words, Su Fai lost all his good brains to reason with her. At the end of everything, she was still reasoning everything with the compensation money. Does she think he would buy that? No way! From years back till now, he has known her enough to guess that she was not a woman who would go after money. She was quite arrogant to see any of them useful for herself. And that alone thing was what made her all different from others.
Taking a deep breath, Su Fai tried to calm his nerves down. Then looking at Li Xue, he said in an all patient tone. "Li Xue! You know that was a serious thing that you did last night. That would have gone severe if not executed well. It was just mere luck for you that his bodyguards were not there or else …"
"Who said?" Suddenly Li Xue interrupted and Su Fai's brows wrung together in confusion.
"What do you mean?"
The woman smiled and began again, "I said that who said to you that it was my luck. Nope, I never believe in luck rather always go for my own arrangements. So, before executing the plans I was already sure that everything will go well. Now, don't heighten things too much. It would make me feel like yesterday night, it was me instead of Mr Han, who took the drug and lost everything".
At her words, Su Fai no longer knew how else he should react. Last night, after Feng Yi Lan informed him about everything, he decided to chide the lady to his heart's content, yet now seeing her like this, he could not bring himself to do so. Thus, shrugging everything off for her, he decided to not probe the things about Mr Han any further.
But except for Mr Han, there was something else that was infuriating him. It was none other than the other lady that was on the video. The one that was involved in everything. He still could not bring himself to believe, the woman whom Li Xue has always favoured and supported back in university and also after, would turn out to be a bi*ch like this.
"So, it was Wen Sying at the end?" he simply asked, even though he knew it was her.
Li Xue nonchalantly nodded. "Unfortunately, or fortunately, yes! It was her". Her voice having the hints of something that he could not put a finger onto. Something that was definitely not regret nor a disappointment.
Though he had thought there would be regret, disappointment and resentment filled in her voice, yet neither her demeanour nor her expressions showed any hints of it. Like the fact of the involvement of Wen Sying in her downfall has not surprised her, even a bit.
It was quite strange. Does that mean that she has always known the involvement of her in all this and all this evidence has just confirmed her thoughts? He could only be positive to that thought given to the way the woman was appearing.
"So? Have you thought of anything? Or are you planning to let her go, just like that?" He asked both curiously and with some meaning.
At her words, Li Xue just stared at him before giving out a deep chuckle. "From when did you start looking at me in such an easy light, Su Fai. Do you think I am the personality to let go of things?"
With her cold chuckle, the man almost felt her spine getting stiff. Definitely, he has never seen her in an easy light. Neither was she one to be there ever. He has seen her be sharpest ever, in a way that no one could ever be.
"Then?"
"Then, nothing! I will play the same game she has started to play with me but with a little leniency?" Li Xue replied with a devilish smirk on the curl of her lips.
"Leniency?" the man asked, getting intrigued. Though 'leniency' seemed a plain, simple meaning word, he knew the meaning that the woman intended behind it was all different.
