Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

The next day, in the later hours of the morning. At Glamour World main building, up on the floor of the CEO office.

"I think this would be more than enough. The confession itself seems reasonable but with this video, I guess, the things will come out to be more positive and believable" Lin Xinyi said, looking away from the video playing on the laptop at the front.

Su Fai, who was sitting beside her, chose to remain silent at the situation while his eyes still kept staring at the video playing on loop. His eyes for once not leaving the screen as if trying to search for something unrecognizable in the recording.

Li Xue also noticed his serious demeanour but decided to ignore it for the time being and focus on the words of Lin Xinyi first. "I am happy that my efforts have in some way come useful for Sister Xinyi and CEO Su. I just did not want to become a burden for the company".

The manager nodded, perfectly understanding the sweet yet sincere words of the girl. "Yes, it will be quite useful. By the way, let me ask you something Li Xue, as Mr Han has said that someone else was involved in demeaning you in that scandal, do you know who that someone else is?" she asked, glancing once again back at the video where clearly some lady's dimed silhouette could be seen but nothing was quite visible to anyone's eyes.

Li Xue didn't say anything. But her eyes turned to change, giving the slight hints of hidden undercurrent behind. Lin Xinyi noticed the sudden change in her attitude too.

"Li Xue, look I have said this the first day, we met and I will repeat the things here again. By no means I am interested in getting involved in your personal stuff. That's neither my field to work nor a topic for my gossip. But if that personal stuff of yours will get mixed with your path of career, then don't get offended because I will try all my means to get involved in it to make the necessary changes required. And right now, is also the same. I am not interested in your enemies, but if those people will come again to harm the career for which I am responsible, then I have to be all prepared to handle them. So, tell me who were they?"

Lin Xinyi said, doing her best to explain the things. She knew every person has a past. She has one and the same way she knew that others have it too, a past that not everyone is comfortable to share. But even if it was something disconcerting to Li Xue, she could not help but force her to reveal it, because only after knowing the things rightly she would be able to do her job in a better way for her.

"With Mr Han's words and other outlooking factors, I doubt that it can be Galaxy Light, the major competitor of my former company back then", Li Xue replied, keeping some information hidden within herself.

Her words seemed believable to Lin Xinyi. But the question she was asking was not just what the girl had replied. "And who is the one on the video with you. I have read your profile and information from the back time. And reading it, I am sure, you were not a dumbhead personality to rely on just anyone during your drunken state. So, tell me who else was there?"

"…" Li Xue didn't say anything rather remained silent. Her eyes for once darted to look at Su Fai as if guessing all perfect for the hints he was searching for in the video.

Seeing her like that, the manager felt like she was hiding something behind. So, she probed again. "Li Xue, hiding a murderer today will bring the disaster tomorrow. So, I think you know covering someone now …"

"Don't ask her more. I know who is the one in the video", Su Fai said, interrupting from the side, turning all serious and firm with his words.

Lin Xinyi turned to him, her brows wrinkling with some confusion. "CEO Su, you know?"

The man looked at Li Xue, predicting well the reason behind her silence. He knew her silence was not because she was trying to hide the culprit from the world but was more because she was trying her best to think of a way where she could present a better way to torture them in the future. Of course, if he can recognize who the person in the video was, he was sure Li Xue would not have lost her sight to see her too.

"The one in the video is Wen Sying from Galaxy Light," Su Fai said, keeping a straight face and serious attitude.

Lin Xinyi's brows scrunched more. She held some questions out of curiosity that she wanted to ask. But at the same time, she also knew her boundaries well. So, instead of acting on her curiosity, she worked on her rightful attitude before nodding. "Oh, I see. Since they were involved in such hideous things back in years. I am sure, now with the growing advancement of things, they could come with more dangerous plans. We will have to be alert this time, especially you, Li Xue"

"I won't repeat the same mistake twice, Sister Xinyi" Li Xue assured, her eyes still all serious over the things. Then pausing for a bit she added, "If you don't mind Sister Xinyi, can I ask you something?"

"Go ahead!"

"Is it necessary to use both the confession clip and video recording at the same time", Li Xue proposed her thoughts. Her tone saying that she was having some plans behind.

Lin Xinyi stared at her. "As I have said, the confession of the man itself will be enough to make the netizens and media get a rough picture of what happened years back. So, it's not necessary to use both of them together. But can I ask you what you intend with hiding one back?"

After a long while, a smile displayed on the woman's face as she said, "It's according to what Sister Xinyi said earlier. We should remain cautious this time. Once we bring one piece of evidence forward, definitely there will be people coming to retaliate it with either their assumptions or their tricks. So, I just thought, it will be better to preserve some cards in our hands for later use."

Lin Xinyi nodded, understanding the things Li Xue was intending to say. "You are right. Okay then, let's preserve it for later use and go for the confession first".

Li Xue smiled back. Definitely, she knows Wen Sying best. She won't come patiently once knowing her plan backfiring. The video will serve to be a good blow for her at that time.

"CEO Su, then I will excuse myself. I will go and then officially prepare to declare Li Xue under our company name", Lin Xinyi said. Until now, they were halting things, keeping everything low profile and their steps measured and cautious. But now that they have gotten solid evidence on their side, there was no use of acting low anymore.
