Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Giving a knock at the door, Li Xue slightly pushed it inside. "Sister Lin! Am I allowed to enter?" She asked all politely with a blooming smile dancing on her lips.

For a moment, Li Xue was paused in her thoughts to look at her. After all, not everyone was lucky to see their ideal in front of their eyes, this close.

Lin Xinyi was already at the computer looking at some data. Her heavy round frames were a little up over her forehead, showing her beautiful facial feature in a more detailed way. Her black straight hair was put up in a bun with a pen holding it tight in the grip. When the woman heard the soft voice from the door, she moved her eyes slightly to look up, leaning her forehead still against her hands and said, "Yes, please! I was waiting for you to come!"

Li Xue nodded and then made her way inside the room. She looked around. One side has a set of sofa chairs for sitting and discussing purpose. While on the other side there were quite a good number of shelves with several books on PR and files arranged into it.

She could see that vacantness created on those shelves but still, nothing looked out of the picture. There were a pile of files and few books accumulated at the table but nothing looked messed up at the scene. It only confirmed how well arranged and sorted the woman sitting behind the desk was.

Taking her seat at one of two chairs across Lin Xinyi, Li Xue all attentively looked at her manager, waiting to hear her with all her concentration.

Lin Xinyi stared at her that way and for the very first time her pair of lips curled up to give a smile. Straightening her half-leaned body on her stature, she got herself more comfortable on her chair and said, "Okay, I can practically see you admiring me but let me tell you something I am no longer in the industry. I was once a diva model of the country but now I am not. So, there is no benefit you would be getting fangirling me like this".

She said and Li Xue could see no line of regret on her forehead. Usually, when people back down from the stair of their hard-earned success, they keep the regret intact in their heart to share whenever they get a chance, but in this scenario, there was nothing like that. In fact, the woman looked quite content in her life.

"There is nothing like that, Sister Lin. Your being in the industry or not, is not making any change for me because I have always admired your ways more than your career. And another thing that I believe is that fangirling around an idol itself is enough to make any fan feel benefitted as their presence itself in life is a sweet blessing".

Lin Xinyi was impressed with her words but some words were just good to hear and for now, to her ears, Li Xue's words felt the same.

"Fine, I can't say anything to change your perceptions. Your thoughts will change as you grow up more. You are still young to think so naively", she said as she nodded her head in her own contemplation and then added, "For now, those thoughts are not important to us. I have asked you here for something else".

As she said, Lin Xinyi's tone became more firm. Her back orbs staring deeply at Li Xue's eager ambers, again ready to test the determination and focus of the girl, sitting in front of her.

Li Xue also did not waver under her sharp gaze. Though she was feeling pressured with those black eyes staring at her that way, her nervousness never came to surface her expressions. To anyone, she looked all cool and relaxed. "Yes, Sister Lin!"

"Let me ask you, what's your ultimate goal in this industry? I mean when you work something must …" The manager asked but then thought to explain thinking that maybe the girl might not understand the meaning properly.

But her words took a pause when she saw the stable tenacity in her eyes. It was then she realized that maybe she was deliberately underestimating the girl when her ambers already looked quite capable to bedazzle the whole world. She looked sure of her stubborn ideas and thoughts. And it might be her fault to think that as time grows, her thoughts and perceptions might also change. Because plants can be taken away from one place and rooted in another place but trees are preferred to remain rooted at their own origin.

But her question was still not something wrong to ask. With her words, she has just intended to ask her long-term motivation, so that while helping her she could remain briefer and briefer. To achieve success the most important requirement is always clarity towards the goal. But having a sorted clarity is something that people always lack and that sole thing is capable of bringing failure all easily to one's chance of success.

Li Xue's smile did not vanish at that question. Of course, she knew what was the intention behind that question.

"To become the best in what I am! I want to achieve the Supermodel Perfectionist Award of Chiboa, both domestically and internationally!" She answered without batting her eyes.

Lin Xinyi looked at her and did not intend much to say. Nodding her head, she said, "Okay! Fine! I will make the plan accordingly. But all my work will only come to effect after your past is handled well. Since nothing has started yet, we could only wait for the company to take action first and then see. Till then I will help you choose a good assistant."

Being loquacious was not an attitude Li Xue ever preferred. She has always tended to know her limits while talking. So, when she heard Lin Xinyi speaking with such solemn expression, she just gave a small smile and said, "Don't worry, Sister Lin! I will try to remain always obedient to you and will give my best in everything".

Though not been too much around the people, the woman has still been acquainted with a good number of fake ones to read true sincerity in anyone's eyes. And looking at Li Xue at this moment, she could be all confident.

At this moment, she could not be sure if the best choice was given to her, but she was sure that the girl was definitely not a bad choice for her.

"Hhmm, that was all I had to discuss with you today. Now you can leave. I will work on a few things first and then let you know after. Wait for my call", Lin Xinyi said and just when her words got completed, Li Xue's phone dinged with a message.

The woman's eyes turned cold for a second when she briefly read the message, but before her change in attitude could get noticed, she turned to get her smile back and said, "Thank you for your time, Sister Lin. I will see you later". Saying that she stood up and turned to leave.

Though Lin Xinyi was quick enough to catch the change in her, she was not the one to probe and ask her. After all, one's private life was not her concern.
