Chapter 693 - Future Madam Feng.

"What did you say?" At Li Xue's words, Shin You Jun was at once stiffened. His composure thinned as he looked horridly at the woman and asked in more detailed words. "Do you want me to be your assistant now? Did you not know a Crown Prince of the country can't be a menial assistant to some woman? And what are you saying about the Royal Cultural Association? Are you here to ask for a job from my mother?"

To all his seamless questions, Li Xue could not help but chuckle. Shaking her head in denial, she said. "Haha … Dear Crown Prince, I already have an assistant. I don't think I would get permission to have another one. And for your other question, I have to agree. Yes, I am here to accept the job that your association has sent to my company." Then turning to the Queen, she smiled in gratitude. 

Shin You Jun was all dumbfounded by the things. He did not understand anything. His brows wrinkled in the frown of confusion as he turned to look at her mother. But before he could ask her anything, he heard her say. 

"It's good to hear that you are accepting the offer. I really was looking forward to working with you" Chen Rui said, smiling with satisfaction. "But as far as I have heard from my secretary, you wanted some time to think. Have you thought of things well then?

Li Xue smiled knowingly and then nodded. "Yes, it's true. To be honest, I have yet to confirm some of my thoughts with you. But at the same time, I would not want to miss this beautiful opportunity. So, in the end, I decided to accept it first then confirm the other things later. I hope I am not wrong that way."

The Queen chuckled out, giving a small meaningful look to her husband, to which Shin Tinming nodded in defeat, but a content smile remained on his lips. Sometimes, defeat doesn't bring the pain along rather brings the rejoice. At this moment, it was the same for him. 

"Definitely not! You thought it all right. Come, for the rest of the talks, we will be in my office. The breakfast is already completed here" Chen Rui said, rising from her chair. Li Xue followed her suit, walking along with her but that was not before giving a farewell bow to the king. 

Behind them, Shin You Jun stood with a confused face. What should I do now? Who would make me understand things? He turned to look at the butler but he just cast his gaze blankly at him. 

"We are getting late for the library. You Jun, come on, buckle up! You have lots to do today". From the side, the king broke the trance of the boy, before rising up as well to leave. 

"Dad, I am …" 

"Don't dodge your work, You Jun. Come to the library fast." He said for the last, before walking away without looking back at the pitiful expression of the boy. 

While at the same time in the Queen's office. Linda greeted bowing down the moment she saw the queen entering. But her expression curved into surprise when saw the other woman following her. Li Xue's face was not unknown to her. She has seen her picture in the model portfolio file and has remembered it well. But what surprised her at the time was her leisurely appearance in the palace. 

Nothing in her walk looked doubtful, rather her stroll behind the queen looked so confident as it was her own domain gifted by the royals. 'She doesn't seem simple, nor her identity. Linda, you better not cross your line with her'. The secretary made a note in her head before bowing to Li Xue as well in greeting. 

"Linda, you can make preparations. Xiao Xue has agreed to become the face of the Royal Cultural Club. Soon after her manager informs you that officially, go to discuss things with her. And for right now, you can leave to see the arrangements with the rest of the models chosen". Chen Rui said, keeping her words brief up to her secretary's understanding before asking her to leave her alone with Li Xue.

Linda was not a dumb one to not understand. Nodding, she immediately agreed before leaving the room politely. "I understood, Your Highness. I will go and check the other arrangements then". She said sauntering out the place but that was not before giving Li Xue a smile of p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e. 

Li Xue smiled back at her. She doesn't understand the bow she had given to her first but now seeing her smile she got to understand the meaning behind it. She nearly chuckled at the exaggerated imagination of the secretary. Did she really think that highly of her, just by looking at her beside the queen? 

"Was that a laughter?" Suddenly the queen asked from the side and at once the woman's eyes turned to give the lady her d.e.s.i.r.ed attention. 

"Mhm hmm … It was." Li Xue did not hide. She was sure if she had seen through the thoughts of the secretary, so would have the queen. So, there seemed no use in hiding it. Furthermore, with the lady, she has already become enough comfortable to share the fun

"May I know the situation?" 

"Your secretary almost thought that I could be someone she couldn't dare to offend. Like her behavior towards me might influence her job". Li Xue replied, still smiling at the fun fact. 

When did not see the lady's agreement with her, Li Xue paused to ask, "Was that lame?"

Chen Rui shook her head. "No, I feel like Linda was partially right to think that way. You might not be directly influencing her job. But still, you are someone whom she could not dare to offend. Given, both your identity as a woman I took dear to heart and also as the future Madam Feng."
