Chapter 649 - Only for demented people.

Li Xue stared at her phone screen as the ring came in, right at the moment when she was about to text a reply to Feng Shufen. Her brows raised in amus.e.m.e.nt as she received the call.

"What is it now, Madam Li? Did you suddenly remember some grudge against me?" Li Xue asked sarcastically, receiving the call. It amuses her how every time when she is in a good mood or her life gets on the right track, the woman appears to give an attempt in ruining it. 

"You little bastard! This is why I have never come to stand in your aid. You just do not deserve my support. See how unfilial you are!" Liu Hua barked in a disgruntled tone and Li Xue could not help but smile at her childishness. 

Shaking her head to her own thoughts, the woman comfortably went to sit on her bed, taking the fluff of the pillow behind her back. "Oh, Madam Li, for the first time I agree with your words. In no way I ever deserved whatever you have offered me. Not because I am unfilial to you but because I don't like crooked people around me."

"You witch …"

"Madam Li, don't define me too much. Your words have become so monotonous these days that I have already byhearted it. Just come to the point. What made you call me today?" Li Xue interrupted the words the moment she heard her begin the same old thing. 

Moments passed by and Li Xue heard the woman inhaling and exhaling sharp breaths without saying anything. She almost rolled her eyes, questioning internally in a joke, 'Was it that easy to get the woman on the edge and make her lose her control like this? If yes, then how am I so good at keeping calm? Maybe I have not taken after her.'

"Madam Li, I think you have mistakenly called me. I am not your doctor to diagnose your breathing complications. If there is nothing I will hang up and forward you a good pulmonologist's number. You can consult him." She said before getting his phone away to hang up but just as she had expected, before she could press the button for disconnection the woman halted her, directly getting on the matter she called for. 

"I have called to invite you to Sying's engagement. The date will be notified to you soon". 

Li Xue paused as her brows lifted up in astonishment, slowly and slowly making her lips curl in contentment. So, her guess shot did hit the bullseyes. Great! She was impressed with herself. 

Liu Hua, on the other hand, when did not hear any response coming, she smirked, feeling the success and said with a smug smile. "Heh! Now what happened? Cat got your tongue! Aren't you going to say anything or was the news too shocking for you? Sying and Wenting are getting engaged soon and I have personally called you to invite. You better not miss the chance to attend. At least, for the last time you can watch Wenting with the eyes of love. After that, he will officially become of Sying's". 

She scoffed, thinking that the girl would be heartbroken and would have been twitching in pain, hearing the announcement. Finally, she was feeling a little better. But her feeling of happiness didn't last long because the very next moment her words got completed, Li Xue was back to break her mirage of illusion. 

"Last time for me to see Wenting? Madam Li, are you trying to say that after getting engaged with Sying, he would be dead? Tsk … tsk, is this the way you bless people. This sounds so much like a curse. Pitiful Sying!" Li Xue spoke with nonchalance, making the woman almost fume up in anger. 

"Li Xue, you …"

"Anyway, Madam Feng, it doesn't concern me whether you give blessing or curse to your beloved daughter, Sying. What concerns me is your real intention behind inviting me like this? I can't simply bring myself to believe that it was out of some childish envy trap. That's not your style. So, tell me, sending me an invitation to attend, what are your plans? I am sure by now, you must have already gotten the news of my comeback in the industry. Is it for that?" 

Li Xue asked, not giving her any chance to speak something out of the context. He words one after the other hitting the right target.

Liu Hua was instantly out of words. "I … I …" 

Li Xue could visualize her biting upon her lips to come up with some reasons. It was not tough to guess her actions. All her childhood she has come noticing her every action and reaction. Now assuming her all perfectly was not a difficult task for her. 

People say the kids and their mothers share a special bond that makes them feel each other in a way that none other could. She doesn't know how real those words were, but as per her experience with the lady since birth, she has come to understand that more than sharing a bond with each other, it was about giving attention and mind to one other. She can easily guess things about the lady because more than half of her childhood has gone looking at her. While at the same time she doubts that Liu Hua was even capable of guessing her blinking eyes as not even for a minutest second, she has seen her coming to look at her. 

"What? Are you even having a problem with the invitation now? I thought of inviting you so that you can also see how engagements and weddings looks like. After all, being a mistress of some old man, you would never be able to see that in your life," Liu Hua snapped, coming up with some suitable reasons according to her knowledge. 

Li Xue shook her head with a smile at those words. Of course, she well knew how to differentiate excuses from reasons. "You are so kind, Madam Li. Don't worry I will definitely attend Sying engagement party and also will try my best to not take away the glamour from her. Now, if the purpose of the call is served, allow me to disconnect." She said, not bothering too much about her words. Sometimes some people could not simply change even if you climb up on the highest peak.

"Heh! Don't pretend you are too big shot. You just stand nowhere. I will send the invitation from someone's hand. You better not insult them the same as you did to me. It will not bring disgrace to you but will not leave us with any face. So better look at your actions." Liu Hua said, trying to act all majestically but just another set of words from Li Xue slammed her back on the ground. 

"Haha … Madam Li, don't worry. Some medicines are only prescribed to demented people. Physicians can't give it to everyone". 

"You …", Liu Hua almost burned up but before she could proceed a call was beeped short, making the woman curl his fist hard in anger. From where did this girl got this courage?
