Chapter 674 - Take away the things she possesses.

For a moment Li Xue wanted to laugh out loud. Strike in revenge for her sister's death? From when did her revenge and punishments become this easy? She was not a person to take an eye for an eye but was even worse than that, when things came to relate to her. There was no way in which she could be this simple with her enemy, especially the ones who dared to backstab her in the past. Revenge was not her things but revenge was also not something that she would let go.

Li Xue stared at Wen Sying for a moment. Hearing the sudden change in the attitude, she paused in her thoughts. Her expression of nonchalance wavered as she stared more at the woman, smirking at her. 

After not so long pause she asked, "What is it that you want from me this time, Ms. Wen?" her words vaguely giving hints of the tales of he happening from past years. 

Wen Sying did not mind her insult concealed behind her words, rather chose to enjoy her victory that she could see getting near and near, the same way she had wanted it to be. Keeping the victory smile plastered over her face, she came forward to hold Li Xue's hands more expectantly as she said. "It's nothing serious, Li Xue. I just need your help in selecting the dresses here. Since you know me and also Wenting well, I am sure your choices will be a great help". 

The intention was clear behind those words and it would have really hit its aim, if Li Xue had been the woman to live in the past. But sigh, she has never been such. Neither in the past nor in the present. She has long learned to move on in search of something better than the one, she lost amid the crowds of people. 

Li Xue's lips curled up as well. Her smile, playing a little mystery with everyone's understanding, giving a different meaning to different perceptions. While Sying took her smile to be a façade to hide her pain and loss within, other people around saw it as a kind smile of the lady who would soon readily agree to help. 

"How can I refuse to do you the favor if you come to ask so sweetly in front of so many people? Furthermore, it's just a small help you are asking for. I will definitely help, but I fear my suggestion will not appease you much. So, …" Li Xue said, elegantly rejecting the idea while turning to look at Feng Yi Lan for help. Modesty and and humbleness coming on the surface of her attitude.

"Li Xue will not be helping here. How could she help here? She has come here for something else and …" Getting the hint from Li Xue, Feng Yi Lan started in a slight panic as if she was trying to save someone but before she could complete her words, Wen Sying interrupted in a hurry to grab the opportunity as fast as she could. 

"I would definitely like to see your choices, Li Xue. I have always loved your ways of approaching and selecting. So please help me. I hope you could manage some time for me, considering the past acquaintance we share. If you want I can personally request your company". Wen Sying said, getting all high and mighty, feeling her upper hand in the show. 

Li Xue paused for a moment, but then giving an easy defeated smile, and nodded reluctantly. "Okay. I will call my manager and let her know". She said before turning around to walk away, leaving the woman in the delusion of success. 

Feng Yi Lan also stared at her and suppressed a smile from coming evident on her face, before turning and leaving after Li Xue. She has to admit, Li Xue's plans are always a slow burn but still worth one to have patience for.

Behind them, Wen Sying was the happiest one. "Li Xue, finally I got you there. Now, you will feel the same piercing pain of jealousy that I have always felt for you. Just wait for it to begin'. She said internally before moving back to take her seat on the couch where she was sitting before.

"Could you please bring me a glass of lemonade?" She asked gracefully to one of the staff standing there, using the tone which was much opposite to the one which she has used with them earlier. 

Even though that was surprising, the lady staff quickly nodded before walking to get one for the woman. 

While in Feng Yi Lan's office. 

The two girls no longer were able to keep their laughter within. Breaking the melodic music out, they could not help but laugh. 

"Li Xue, I never knew it would be so easy. I really can't say if it was our acting that was flawless to make her believe everything so easily or was she too dumb to see through our plans" Feng Yi Lan asked, getting the hold back on herself back. 

Li Xue shrugged her shoulders off. "I never cared for that. I will just keep the credit as I have long seen her intentions that had nothing but a desperation to make me fall. So, giving her the golden chance to do as she wishes, I paved the way success for my thoughts. I am not yet sure if the results will end up the way I want it or not, but yeah, it will be fun". She said, giving a nod of assurance.

"Tsk tsk … I was really not wrong earlier, sweetheart. You sure have turned into a devil, living with my brother. See how you beautifully flaunt your devilish ideas in front, like they are something you take pride on". Feng Yi Lan said, cl.i.c.k.i.n.g her tongue. Though her words were saying otherwise, her eyes were always in support of Li Xue. For a moment she really wanted to thank her brother, who brought back this version of her friend again. Or she could even say a much better version than before. 

"You see, the right people have got the right influence on you," Li Xue said, winking at her friend, taking the credits on behalf of the man. And then looking around asked, "By the way, you have kept your photographer ready, right?"

Feng Yi Lan nodded. "Of course, sweetheart, I have called him the moment you have revealed your plans to me. He must be reaching here soon. Let me give him a call and ask". 

"No need, we have time. We can wait an let her wait too." Li Xue denied, getting back to take the comfortable seat. 

Earlier, Wen Sying has snatched away was hers. Now it was her time to slowly take away the things she possesses. The show has begun very before but today it will add another interesting chapter to it. Li Xue smiled confidently at the thought of it as she looked at the time ticking on the clock.
