Chapter 1273 Scared

Li Xue looked at Zhang Xiaotong and couldn't help but smile. It was rightly said that sometimes even after one speaks the truth, people who are in their own delusion wouldn't care to believe it. And at the moment, Zhang Xiaotong was no different.

"Mr. Gao. I feel Ms. Zhang would need help in getting out from here. Please call a few of our men and help her get to her car. I am sure with her amenities; she would be able to see the doctor on her own." She said to Gao Fan, who was still standing at the door of the office before turning to look at the woman to confirm. "Am I right, Ms. Zhang?"

Zhang Xiaotong chewed on her lips and then said with arrogance, "I can do it on my own, I don't need your help? Don't pretend as if you care for me." She said and then tried to get up but the pain was too much for her to suppress. When she wasn't able to get success in her attempt, she looked at Li Xue grudgingly who still kept smiling at her.

"What? What are you looking at me, Ms. Zhang? Since you said that you don't need my help, I am not helping you. Do you think I am wrong to even agree with you on that?" Li Xue raised her brows. But her expression changed as she looked at the woman with a firm expression to say, "You were right to think that I have no intention to help you out. But I never planned to hide my real intention from you. If you want me to reveal my intent then I will tell you straight. By asking secretary Gao to help you out I meant to get rid of you as you can see, I want my alone time with my husband, with no one around especially you."

"Li Xue, you …"

Li Xue didn't let her complete. Stretching her lips slightly in a smile, she said, "Now that you know it loud and clear, I think it would be your insult to stay here any longer. Just let our men help you out, otherwise, I don't think it would be just a small bruise for which you would be going to see the doctor. There would be more getting added to that list."

She said, and just as she completed her words, her eyes went to look at Gao Fan, giving him her last signal. The man nodded and soon a few bodyguards came to pick Zhang Xiaotong from the floor.

Zhang Xiatong was insulted but except for glaring, she had nothing else to do. Especially when all this while she could feel the gaze full of hatred and disgust from Feng Shufen. Earlier, when she came here, she was happy, thinking that she had a silver line of hope of getting Feng Shufen but now after what happened here, even that silver lining was gone.

Li Xue, I would not forgive you for this. If I won't have Brother FenFen, I won't let you have him as well. Let me see how well you would live your life.

Soon after Zhang Xiaotong was taken away, bowing his head to ask permission, Gao Fan also left. And once everyone left, Li Xue turned to look at Feng Shufen. His expression was still no better. His eyes were dark enough to tell that he was not too satisfied with what Li Xue had done.

Pursing her lips at his dissatisfaction, she walked up to him before blinking her eyes. "I know this was not how you wanted but she was a woman and also injured. I didn't want people to think that you harassed a woman who was already at her lowest."

Feng Shufen stared at her and didn't say anything. Then turning around, he went back to take his seat behind the desk.

Li Xue huffed a breath and then looked at the man with a pout. "Mr. Beelzebub, she was the one who tried to harass you physically, why are you now trying to harass me emotionally? Do you think this would be fair?"

Feng Shufen still didn't reply to her, instead, his fingers worked on the keyboard, furiously typing something.

Li Xue went to silently take her seat across him and keeping her eyes on him, she said. Her one leg crossed over the other, dangling down in the air. "Okay, tell me, what exactly made you this angry. I am sure this couldn't be an intention to hug and kiss you. Because before this the same situation has happened here with Kim Ryan and you were not this infuriated at that time. Then what was so special this time? Was Ms. Zhang the special factor?"

Feng Shufen's eyes at once shot up to look at her. The glare he held in his eyes instantly warned Li Xue to not continue that talk. But Li Xue knew more than anything else that only a clear chat at the moment could ease the thing. Holding the things would only ruin it further.

So, ignoring his warning gaze, she still asked, "Nope, I really want to know. What was so special today?"

Feng Shufen's fingers clenched while Li Xue saw his jaws tightening as well. It was the same expression that had scared Zhang Xiaotong earlier, and it would have done the same to anyone. But Li Xue sat there all nonchalant as if she was immune to all kinds of fear in this world.

"You are hesitating in telling it, Mr. Beelzebub. Should I take out another meaning of your hesitation?" She said and at that clear threat, the man could no longer hold it in. Getting on the edge, he said.

"I was scared. Scared of the consequences that would have come up if for the second time, you would have seen me with some other woman." He said and Li Xue blinked at him.

Scared? Did he just say that he was scared?
