Chapter 1256 My wife's safety is my biggest concern

Li Xue was also stunned at that voice. Hearing it she turned to look, only to find that the voice from before was no illusion and the man was truly there in flesh. Being surprised at his appearance, she could only tug her brows to ask, "You are here?"

Feng Shufen's eyes weren't interested to look anywhere. The moment it spotted Li Xue, it got itself stuck at her. Nodding to her words, he said, "Yes, I was passing by when I received a message stating a piece of good news. So, to see it with my own eyes, I came here." He said, and at his words, Li Xue was confused.

Looking around, she asked, "Good news? What was that?" She thought maybe Feng Internationals would have something to deal with in the mall, that's why Shufen was here. But little did she expect that there was no deal he was aiming to sign, rather he was there just for her.

Earlier when he called home, Sister Margaret informed him about Li Xue going out. Taking the name of the mall she had gone to; he had asked the driver to make the way towards the same when on the way he received the notification of fund approval on his card. He was happy to see Li Xue finally using his card, but he could already guess that things couldn't be so simple. There might be something more happening.

So, the moment he received the notification, he asked Gao Fan to speed up the car, reaching here in no less time.

But reaching here, he was surprised. Not because there was Zhang Xiaotong around, but because of what he heard Li Xue say. He hadn't experienced this happiness before but when he heard Li Xue declaring their money as one and him earning just for her, he was proud. Proud as he has never felt before.

Walking up to her, he said was nonchalantly nodded to her askance before replying, "I got the message of our spending some of my earned money." He said, and Li Xue couldn't help but be speechless.

Does he mean her spending money was good news for him? Wasn't he earning all that money with his hard work, how was he at such ease seeing her spend it in the blink of an eye? Although she had previously said it, her words were just too silent for Zhang Xiaotong. She never expected the man to come here and confirm it all readily.

Even people around were stunned. The saleswoman who has earlier served Li Xue was the most surprised one. But as her eyes looked at the man her earlier curiosity dissipated. So, this was the husband who offered his wife such a lavish life. She must be an apple of his eye, otherwise, which man likes to see his woman spending money. She thought to herself as her eyes went to check the man's body. She suddenly felt that the lady had earlier underrated her husband's body. This man's body was way more better than most of the models in the industry.

"Hey, did you hear that? That man is so doting toward his wife. He was happy seeing her spend his money." At this moment, another saleslady came to whisper to the ears of the other.

"I have served that lady earlier; she is really a nice woman with good temperament. No doubt her husband likes her."

"Do you even know who that man is?" Suddenly one asked and the saleswoman simply shook her head.

"I don't know but based on how he treats his wife with luxury, he must be some rich Young Master of a wealthy family."

"Heh, what do you know? Have you not seen the news recently?" The saleswoman didn't understand and frowned. To which the other quickly added, "That's no other but the mighty President of Feng Internationals, Feng Shufen."

The saleswoman need not be explained to know who Feng Shufen was. The name itself was enough to make him remember it all. It was just that she had never seen his picture so she failed to recognize him. "You mean to say the lady I served earlier was no other but the mysterious wife of the President of Feng internationals?"

"Seems like so. But sigh everything ended in such a wrong way. I hope the lady doesn't think bad of our store otherwise, who knows tomorrow this store is no longer here."

As she said, their eyes turned to look at Zhang Xiaotong. Although they didn't say anything, their gaze was enough to relay their thoughts.

Zhang Xiaotong heard them and felt their gaze and there was no need to make it verbal that she didn't like them staring like that or either talking like that. But at the moment, that wasn't her concern, to be honest. Rather what mattered to her was Feng Shufen who was just in front of her eyes but wasn't even looking at her. She was disappointed. Disappointed in herself that she hasn't dressed properly to get even one glance from the man. How could she be this useless?

Still keeping her disappointment aside for a moment, she put a smile on her face before walking ahead to get near to the man to say, "Brother FenFen, you are here? I thought, as usual, you would be busy at your company, doing a meeting."

Li Xue heard him and raised her brows. Suddenly she understood something. She turned to look back at the man and understanding her gaze, Feng Shufen plainly replied, "My wife's safety was my biggest concern." He said and Li Xue couldn't hear anything more savage than this. She was speechless.

Her eyes turned to look at Zhang Xiaotong. And of course, like her, she has also understood the meaning behind his curt words.

Feeling a little pity for her, she tried to save her grace, so quickly hooking her arms around Shufen's, she said, "Ms. Zhang, don't mind his words. As you heard before, my husband likes me spending money, so he must have come to accompany me. Nothing else." As she said, Zhang Xiaotong felt more ugly.

To her, it was like Li Xue was sweetly rubbing off the salt to her bare injuries. Still, to maintain a face in front of Feng Shufen, she gave a smile.

People around felt bad for her too. But then remembering how meaninglessly arrogant she was moments ago, their pity turned into air. Instead, they felt that it was right that she has to experience it.

"She deserved it. How dare she become that arrogant here?"

"She dared to treat us as if we are nothing but an insect that she can trample upon. Hmph!"

"Why do I feel that she is head over heels for President Feng? Look the way she looks at him."

"What's the use of her being like this? Even a blind could tell that other than his wife President Feng has no one in his eyes. She could just keep on trying."

Slowly and slowly, the whispers became loud and they easily reached the ears of people. Zhang Xiaotong felt bad inside but keeping a polite and elegant face in front of Feng Shufen, she couldn't dare to turn to retaliate. Hence, keeping silent she could only take the criticisms from all the people around her.

Li Xue also heard them. Although she didn't have a favorable impression of Zhang Xiaotong, still she felt that things were exceeding their limits. So to put it to an end, she quickly turned to look at the man to ask, "Do you have any plans further here?"

Feng Shufen heard her and shook his head. "Nope, I was here for you."

"Great then. Since you are already here and have nothing important next, help me walk around the mall. If I like something, help me get it, okay?" Li Xue asked with some excitement on her face.

Feng Shufen looked at her shiny ambers and nodded. Then looking at the store he asked, "Do you need anything from here?"

Looking around, Li Xue shook her head. "Nope, I am already done here. Let's go somewhere else."

The man nodded before wrapping her arms around her waist lightly and guiding her out of the store. Gao Fan, who had been there standing behind gestured for one of the bodyguards to open the door. But just then the guard could, the store manager, came rushing to Li Xue to ask.

"Madam, please spare a minute. You shopped with us and we are really overjoyed to serve you. But could you please let us know if there is something that we should work upon? We would really love to hear your feedback." The store manager requested and Li Xue just gazed around the people before her eyes went to stop at the saleswoman, who served her earlier. Her lips curled slightly at her as turning back to look at the store manager she said, "Your store was good at everything. But kindly offer some backups to your staff here. They are doing a respectable job here. It's really painful to see them getting bullied by the customers."

She said and the meaning behind her words was not tough to understand. The saleswoman who was referred to in the context, couldn't control her tears from rolling her cheeks. Although she wasn't referred directly, she knew the lady has said it for her.

While on the other side, Zhang Xiaotong felt like Li Xue has purposeful with her words so that later she could complain about all her actions to Feng Shufen.
