Chapter 831 - Auspiciously designed invitation card.

"Madam, we are almost at Glamour World. Should I take the car inside?" Du Fan asked as he drove the car by the lane that was closer to Li Xue's agency building. 

On his announcement, Li Xue as well looked out before shaking her head. "No, no, it would be fine to drop me at a distance. I would walk in by myself. Furthermore, your Young Master has meetings to attend. I am sure he won't want to get late for it." She said, adding a smile over her lips before turning to look at the man sitting on her side, all silently with his usually handsome face. 

Du Fan heard and was about to nod in agreement, but just when he had thought to give the nod of acceptance, Feng Shufen interjected. 

"Drive the car inside the parking lot. There could be paparazzi around" He said and with his words, the meaning was all clear. Du Fan looked confusedly at the woman. Though the orders were clear, it was a tough time for him to decide whose orders to follow.

"I have no problem, Mr. Du, if your Young Master is okay with that. Not like I have some secret boyfriend hidden in the company". Li Xue didn't refute his words, instead, she just smiled. Looking away she just waited, suppressing her chuckle within. 

Du Fan looked through the rear mirror and nodded with some confusion written over his face. "Got it, Young Master. I will drive inside" He said, staring a little dazedly from the mirror. Now he was not sure if the lady has purposely said her words like that or was the Young Master really being over-concerned and protective of her. 

He looked through the mirror, first at the woman then turning to look at the man, and just after a few tries he gave up, accepting that – Some things are just about relationships which a single like him would simply not be able to understand. 

"Madam, we are here at the parking lot". The driver announced again and Li Xue just nodded at him before looking back at the man to say. 

"Here, I am already at the company. I will take your leave now and will also wish you luck for your day. Enjoy!" She said and was about to set off when she was suddenly tugged back with a gentle force.

"Be good. And don't stir too much trouble for the day. I will complete my meetings and then will come to you. Wait for me" He said with a gentle whisper near her ear before giving a small peck on it which only made Li Xue's breath hitch for the minutest second. Then releasing his grip from her, he added, "Now go. Don't be late." 

Li Xue nodded, her cheeks holding a faint hue of redness. "Then make sure to be on time. In the latter half of the afternoon, I will keep you included in our plans". She said before opening the door and leaving. 

"Young Master, should we drive to Feng Internationals?" Du Fan asked when saw the lady almost getting inside the building. 

"Drive to Dark Zone Pavilion" Feng Shufen ordered coldly and soon the car zoomed out in the direction of one end of the city. 

While back in Glamour World, soon Li Xue made her way to Lin Xinyi's office. On her way to reach the eleventh floor, many wished her congratulations while many others boosted her on her success. She smiled at everyone but didn't give too close importance to anyone, knowing the materialistic wishes they had from her. 

Upon reaching the office of Lin Xinyi, she knocked at the door before pushing it open. "Sister Xinyi, may I come in?" She asked, seeing the woman standing at the corner window of the office room. 

"Yes, please. Come in and sit, Li Xue" Lin Xinyi replied, turning to give a smile to her. Then walking as well to the desk, she, herself, took her seat on the chair. "Someone dropped you just now?" 

Li Xue paused for a second before nodding. "Mhm. A friend dropped me off." She answered, smiling a little to conceal the truth. 

Lin Xinyi looked at her and nodded. "A friend? Or Boyfriend?" She asked again. Her lips held a curl of knowledge that could forbid anyone from giving a false statement. 

Li Xue coughed a little and her reply was already clear enough to understand. 

Lin Xinyi stared at her. Her gaze became a little deep for some reason. "Li Xue, I have said this to you this earlier and I will say it again. Though you are getting opportunities now, don't let your aim be swayed by it. Being a comeback model in the industry, things would not be simple for you. You would need to give your all to stabilize your career. You won't have time for your relationships. So, don't bother having one for the time being". 

Li Xue nodded with understanding but then being all confident, she said, "Sister Xinyi, I understand your concern. But believe me, my fiancée is not like others. He is quite understanding of my career and also has been supportive of it. He would never become a barrier to my path. I believe him and would want you to believe me as well. I won't let you down". 

Lin Xinyi looked at her for some time more and then nodded. "I hope you are clear about that. Anyway, you did a good job for Aurora and the public has also well perceived you on the stage. So, congratulations on the first victory. Though there is a glitch going on for the last style of Amaranthine that you have worn on the stage, still you don't have to be bothered about it since that's a problem on the end of Aurora and they have said they'll take care of it". 

"For you, now there after Aurora, focus yourself on the next project from the Royal Cultural Association Club. Though they have not yet sent the start date for their project, it will come any time soon. So be prepared for it ahead of time". Lin Xinyi said before taking out a small luxury envelope card to push to Li Xue. "This came today in the morning from Zheng Industries." 

"Invitation card?" Li Xue asked, smiling at the auspiciously designed invitation card.
