Chapter 872 - Heal you up all perfectly.

"Hello, it went well, Mr. Beelzebub. Don't worry, I saved your reputation". Li Xue chimed as she received the call as soon as it entered. Her tone of voice held the victory while her eyes were shining with achievement. Right at that moment, the door of the elevator dinged open and her eyes caught the sight of suave-looking Su Fai inside. 

When caught the look of the woman, the man was also a bit surprised. His brows raised while his lips curled to give a friendly welcoming curve. He would have chosen to greet her but seeing her on the call, he opted to keep it for the time being. He stepped a little aside to make some good space for Li Xue before helping her press the key to the floor she was descending. 

Li Xue stepped inside the elevator and didn't mind the man as well. To her, she was right now on the call that was very important to her. Not particularly ignoring but more like keeping it aside for the time being..

"Mr. Beelzebub, did you even hear me? I said I did well and have not disappointed you. Will you not praise me?" Li Xue said and her words almost choked the person standing beside her. But she didn't bat an eye to his reaction rather continued. "Mr. Beelzebub, come on! Praise me fast. I am waiting. Do you know how hard it was?" 

"Mhm … you are the best." Feng Shufen said from the other side of the call. His voice was all calm and gentle, making Li Xue get more satisfied. 

"And my reward?" She asked again and to her demand, Feng Shufen replied as if he has long thought about the rewards he has to give her. 

"In the evening, I will take charge of the kitchen and will prepare the dinner." He said and his proposal only made Li Xue raise her brows up in fascination. "Whoa! Did you learn something new? Okay, don't tell me now, surprise me later. That will be better". 

"Mhmm!" A hum of agreement came and the next followed a question that sounded a little weird to Li Xue. "Are you now going somewhere else?" 

For a moment, Li Xue paused. Her expression changed slightly but then smiling normally, she replied. "Of course, I have some plans. Don't worry, I will go according to your arrangements. I will let Du Fan drive me around and will not ask you the reason as well. So rest ȧssured. Since it's a half-day for WeiWei, after this I will take her along, and if we end our work early, we might also plan to come and pick you up from your company. How will that be?" She asked, half genuinely while half teasingly. The first half of her words being genuine while the last part being a tease. After all, she knew the man would not allow her to cause a ruckus at his workplace. 

But little did she know that there were still many things that she was yet to know about the man. She was yet to know that to her every proposal there would never be his restraint, no matter how absurd her play or demand is. 

When she was excitedly waiting to hear his denial, from the other side only came a very unexpected hum of acceptance of Feng Shufen. "Mhm … then I will wait for you to arrive. Enjoy your time till then!" came the words and the next there was the beep of disconnection. 

Li Xue was stunned. She was about to ask what he meant with that hum, but the words that came next were enough to make her understand its meaning all clear, moreover, the call was already disconnected. 

"Huh? What does he mean? Did he seriously ask me to come to his company to pick him up? Did he not care about his employees knowing about it?" she mumbled in disbelief to no one in particular. 

But at the side, Su Fai could not control himself from chuckling. "Why would he care, girl? He is Feng Shufen. The world would care, not him!" He said and to his words of free reply, Li Xue just rolled her eyes. 

"What do you know?" 

"I may not know too much. But I know one thing for sure that you received a perfect retaliation for the tease. You gave him the blow and he also returned you the same. Now it's again your turn. Let's see how you will make it? Will you be really going to his office or not? You have been challenged" Su Fai summarised the scenario and hearing him explain, Li Xue's brows just tug together to ask with some real disbelief. 

"Challenged?"

The man nodded, pressing his lips together. "What else do you think? Men play like that." 

"…" Li Xue didn't understand. Did she shoot her own leg?

"By the way, Li Xue, until today, I never knew that you could be such a clingy type of woman. And believe me when I say that I would not have chosen to believe it if not have seen and heard with my own eyes and ears. I must say you are quite different around President Feng. A bit clingy and extra courageous, but also tamed and obedient." Su Fai added and to his words, the woman quickly replied in the most casual tone. 

"That's because he is also the same with me. Very different than he is with others!" Li Xue stated as the elevator dinged open again, marking the arrival of the floor they were planning on. 

Su Fai smiled hearing her confidence while looking at her stepping out. "That I can tell by seeing the changes in your attitude." 

Li Xue paused, only to turn on her heels to ask with tugged brows again, "Changes in my attitude? What do you mean?" 

Seeing her getting surprised by the fact, Su Fai couldn't control himself from saying more. Following her out of the elevator, he began with an equal surprise, "What? Haven't you realized it already?" 

"…"

"Li Xue, you have been my friend for years now. You can say that I have seen almost all the shades of your personality, not too strongly as Feng Yi Lan but somewhere little less than her. I have known you prior to the scandal and have also seen you post the scandal. There was a difference between them and you cannot deny that. But do you know in recent times, looking at you no one would be able to recognize emotionally bruised Li Xue, as now there seem to be no traces left behind". 

"…" 

"You have become back as you were before. Seems like President Feng has not taken too long to heal you up all perfectly. Something that was not as easy as it looked. I am happy that I have given you up for that person because he is the one who deserved you the best." 

Su Fai added and it was something that Li Xue had realized long back. But she has not thought that things would be so evident to others as well. 

"Indeed, I won't deny that!" she said plainly, drinking the lump of realization down her throat. Then turning around, again starting to leave.
