Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 48 - His eyes compels her to reveal her honest side to him.

Outside Feng Internationals, an executive team of company's officials were already standing to welcome the team of foreign clients up inside. With them, President's personal secretary Gao Fan was also present. He was there to represent the face of his boss.

At events like this, Feng Shufen never comes to welcome anyone. To him, these were just some social greetings which does not matter to the deals in company's benefit. He believed as long as the clients can see their goodwill, market credentials, and profit in them, they will endure everything to keep the relations. Such fake gestures weren't at all needed.

Soon a line of luxury cars started getting lined up in front. The people who came out were not different from them, they were having the same origin of country Chiboa, who had long been settled overseas in Europe.

Among them the most eye-catching one was the woman, who was walking arms hooked with the old CEO. The sound of her high heels clicking on the marble floor could be heard. As she got closer towards them, the strong fragrance of black licorice enchanted everyone, filling their eyes with hidden l.u.s.t.

Above all her hourglass figure with a fair delicate face was doing nothing good. Her cat eyes were shaded under the transparent stylish sunglasses that were beautiful and can easily lure any man into her trap. The only person that remained unfazed to her looks there, was the formidable secretary who has never bothered to take any good look at any woman.

Being an acquaintance of his Boss for so many years, many of his behavior has got influenced by him. One of those was the aloofness from the people in his surroundings.

When the foreign group came near to them, he greeted him all formally, "Welcome to our Feng Internationals. President Feng has sent his welcome greetings. At this moment, he is quite busy with some work so has asked me to guide you upstairs. Please this way!"

"Haha it's okay. I know being a President of a company who has got its branches expand so successfully all over the world is not an easy talk. There are many responsibilities to handle and it's us who has arrived earlier. Please don't bother him. We will go upstairs and wait for him to finish his work first", the old man, who was leading the team said in a very generous smile. Towards the end of his sentence, he looked at the woman in his left whose eyes were still asking someone to appear.

Patting her hands lightly, he followed the direction of Gao Fan's directed hands to walk inside. The woman's eyes got disappointed for a moment, when she did not spot the person she was searching for, but nonetheless walked with the team.

"It's okay. Don't get disappointed, you will still get many opportunities. We have just arrived. Cheer up Ryan!", the man said whispering the words lightly to his daughter's ears. He has always known how much his beautiful daughter was attracted to this man. And he has always feared the man's coldness and indifference. He feared that one day his precious daughter would get her life's worst painful heartbreak. But at the same time his selfish love for her did not have any power to stop her advances.

The woman nodded and gave a charming smile to the man and silently followed him inside.

Back in the canteen, the chefs were already in a rush. They have already been informed about the arrival of the guest. The speed and efficiency of their hands got intense as the pressure increased. All were in the thoughts of winning the challenge.

From time to time they would turn to look in the direction Li Xue was working. Looking at her calm and composed demeanor, further railroaded their confident thoughts.

"Look she is still so calm, has she already prepared her dessert dish. The time is already been rushed but her appearance still looked so perfect as if there is nothing for her to worry"

"Yes, she looked all confident now. Now I think, I genuinely feel that earlier she was just playing with our minds, making us think that she was the weak one here"

"I agree and now remembering the President's words I really regret …", before the chef could complete her words, The Chief Chef yelled from behind.

"Don't you feel the need of the time. You are still busy talking, are the work at your station all done?"

The chefs quickly scrambled to get back at their station. Mia, who had heard those regretting words of the chefs, hopped near Li Xue and nearly squealed in joy, "Whoa! Li Xue you are really great. I have just heard words of those chefs, they are already losing their hopes looking at you working like this. They said they regretted not believing in your capabilities before. I am the happiest one here since I was smart enough to choose you"

Li Xue looked at her expression and shook her head, "Ahh! you are sure a narcissist one. You are praising yourself on your own"

"Of course if not me, do you find anyone free around to come and appreciate me. I am doing all their work on my own", she said raising her chin up with a smug.

"Fine, fine … Mia is the best one here. Now quickly go and check if you are done your part perfectly. Your appetizers have its essentiality, since it would be among the first things that would be served to the guests. So recheck if everything is perfect", the woman said and moved back to her work.

To say she was not edgy will be a false statement. She was anxious with her work but she has long skilled herself to not let anyone guess her nervousness in her comportment. So no one was able to guess what was truly going inside her. The only person in front of whom she has started showing her this weakness was the Big Boss. She herself has no idea why she was like that in front of him but his eyes always make her weak and compels her to reveal her honest side to him.

Seeing the girl walking back to her counter, Li Xue moved her eyes around and let out a deep sigh of nervousness. "Thank God! All the dessert pieces are all done. Just some little touches on the presentation and everything would be ready", she said, not aiming her words to anyone in particular.

She smiled as she looked at the dessert dishes she had prepared. Though she wasn't confident in herself and the dishes were up to the mark in accordance to the guest's taste - hair but she was satisfied with the efforts she has made.

"I hope my work does not disappoint, Mr. Beelzebub. Or else what can I do? I have already tried my best. Hope this works!"

Same time up at the President's office, Feng Shufen was leisurely looking out of the French windows from where he can see almost all around the city. There was a soothing smile, playing on his thin pair of lips remembering something in his deep mind.

Suddenly his thoughts got interrupted when he heard a knock at the door. "President Ms. Ryaan is here to talk a few words with you", Gao Fan said the moment when the man turned to face him.
