Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Zheng Wenting's expressions were cold and stern but it didn't faze the mocking laughter playing on Li Xue's face.

"Li Xue, I am asking it seriously. Is your aloof and cold behaviour towards us is because of that man?" he repeated again and the woman could not help but felt a little irritated hearing a monotonous question.

Pausing her laughter for a bit, she put her hand against her head for some support as using her thumb she massaged the skin between her brows. Her long wavy locks sprawled to one side, putting the side of the stretched, slender neck on the show. "Didn't I already give you an answer? If you so badly want to hear your referable answer then go on and assume it as you want. But don't rattle my cage like this. I am already not able to handle your tone".

She said displeasingly and looking at her getting annoyed, the man's expression also softened. He has not brought her here to make her feel vexed rather has thought to make amends with her.

"Li Xue, annoying you was not my plan. I was just here …", the man began but had to pause abruptly when saw the waitress making her way back to them with a glass of water.

Li Xue also looked at the waitress. But her eyes twitched for a second looking at the attitude of her. Something was changed about her. There wasn't any politeness in the way she was walking.

Her brows wrinkled with some contemplation at first but then suddenly turned stern when from the side of her eye, she caught someone's presence out the big glass window of the room.

Li Xue's lips curled to give a tricky lopsided grin to the waitress, allowing her to come closer. Seeing her like that the waitress was baffled but still chose to complete the plan she was assigned.

Looking all grudgingly at the woman, she took her steps to her. Li Xue welcomed her for the same. Her gaze stern but still casual at her. Her eyes are not missing any of her movements.

And just when the waitress should have been placing the tray on the table, her footing stumbled as she tripped angling the glass in the direction of Li Xue. Her lips gave a smile of satisfaction thinking that her plan to get successful. But she never thought that the woman would be fast enough to turn the situation in her favour.

Instead of taking the hit of the glass onto her, Li Xue slightly shifted her chair to the side making the glass shatter on the floor. While at the same time, she pulled the carpet underneath a little to cover all the glass shards in one wrap.

"Ahh!" a yelp of surprise rang in the air before the waitress took a real fall on the floor. She has never expected the change of sequence like this but unexpected things do happen often. She let out a breath of relief when saw that it was just a fall on the floor and there was no severe injury. Otherwise, with so many glass shards scattered on the floor, one or two piercing pain was inevitable.

With some pain, she flapped her hair back to look at Li Xue, who was still seated at her place with all calm and peace are written on her face. 'Has she already seen the attack coming? Ms Wen Sying was not wrong. This woman was truly evil. If not then, looking at me in pain, she would not have been playing smile over her lips'. She thought to herself as her eyes grudgingly stared at the lady.

"Sorry, I don't sympathize with conspiracies against me", Li Xue said, all perfectly reading the thoughts of the woman on the floor.

Zheng Wenting was confused at the scene. He stood up when felt that Li Xue would be one getting hurt but was relieved when saw her all safe. His brows tugged together to form a frown and he was about to lash out at the waitress for her careless act but paused when heard Li Xue's words from the side.

"What do you mean, Li Xue?" he asked to clarify his confusion but when did the woman say that she has taken the responsibility to clarify his useless confusions.

Straightforwardly, ignoring his question, she stood up slowly. Taking her steps slowly towards the waitress, she crouched down to her height before saying, "Don't blame me for your situation. You brought it on yourself. Being a staff of this restaurant, it would have been much better if you would have chosen your professionalism over any other thing. Fighting the war for others can never be a good choice. Look what it brought to you?"

"You …" The waitress started but her lips got tightened shut when found no better words to retaliate.

"See, this happens when you come to give the exams of the paper you have never read in your life, neither have any idea of" Li Xue added more. "I hope you have not got any serious injury. I have made sure to cover all the glass pieces before you make a fall. Sigh, I still can't be any greater evil. You were right. But some evil also has some goodness. So, you will not have to pay the damage cost of this glass."

Li Xue said with a smile as she turned to look at the man standing at the side. "Settle it on the bills of CEO Zheng. He will help you pay it, after all, he is responsible for the damages that take place because of his girlfriend".

"Li Xue what are you saying. Wen Sying …" his words paused all of a sudden as his eyes caught suddenly something on the woman's neck. All this time his fair neck was covered with her brown hair. Now that her hair has shifted to one side and she was down in her height, he has come to realize the mark on her fair skin.

His expressions turned frigid as he roared abruptly in the dangerous voice. "Leave us alone. Get your sh*t out of here".
