Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 51 - Feng Shufen's nonchalance irked her.

Appetizers with starters, complimenting the European main course were already set on the table, only the dessert was left to bring in. Feng Shufen gestured to everyone to take their seats and then turned to look at his secretary, Gao Fan. "Ask the chefs to come and introduce their thoughts on the dishes they have presented", He ordered and exactly after some moments the Chief Chef came up to introduce everything.

The confidence he was holding while introducing was quite commendable. This was something he has nurtured with the experience he has earned. As the people heard him specify the taste behind each and every dish, they felt an urge to savor the taste in the way it was described. But that can't be possible as the man who was sitting at the head of the table was having some other plans.

He turned to look at his secretary again and said, "Ask the dessert chef to come too. The dessert dishes will be introduced together. And at the end I will give my thoughts to it". Gao Fan nodded and quickly went to ask the lady to come and take the hold of the stage.

At this point he had no idea what was going inside the head of the President anymore. Neither he thinks himself to be capable of getting near to his thoughts.

"Ms. Li Xue!" he greeted as he reached the canteen. The dishes were all ready and the woman was on her way of removing her apron. When she heard the call from outside she came out, "Mr. Secretary! The dishes are ready. Tell me when to serve and I will bring them up."

"No need, we have to take them up right at this moment. President has called you to introduce them right at this moment", he said in a firm tone.

Li Xue looked at him, pondered for some moment and then nodded, "Ummm … Okay! I will take them up", she said and then went inside to bring everything on a large gueridon trolley. As she brought it out, she looked around and waited for someone to come and help her but there was no one. All the waiters were up handling the dishes.

Gao Fan looked at her and then asked, "Is there any problem?"

The woman looked around for one last time and shook her head, "It's nothing, let's go". She said as she forwarded her steps. The man was amused at her behavior. He was sure if it would have been any other chef then they would have either waited for the waiter or would have asked for the help directly. But here she was all patient with the people around.

The unavailability of the helpers was definitely a paroxysm made from the other team but here this lady was being so tolerant of them like this was some kind of childish play for her. Exactly what are the reasons that made her so tolerant with the happening ticks around?

As Li Xue took her step forward pushing the trolley, a hand stopped her way. "Please let me help", said Gao Fan as he tried to take a hold of the wheeler. But the woman stopped him, "This is not your job". She said as she looked at him. How can she let him do this for her knowing that he was President's secretary?

Though she had no idea in relation to organizational structure, she still had an idea of the formidable position a President's Secretary holds in the company. Knowing it she could not let the man do this trivial work for her, not even as the manner of chivalrousness.

"In the same way this is not your job too. Let me do it, that way less damage will be incurred", he said and took the handle of the cart from her. From his situation analysis he already knew this woman's action can easily influence his boss. Bringing her in front of so many people while pushing the gueridon trolley herself can cause several heads or even worse. So his actions of mannerism were only saving those people.

"Damage?" Li Xue was confused but before she could ponder on it the man had already made his way towards the lunchroom.

Forgetting the topic, she also made her way out. At this moment she has no time to think about anyone's mysterious words.

On the floor of the lunch room, everyone was waiting for the last course of desserts to arrive. They have not known why the process was taken in this way. Usually the desserts would arrive after the main course is completed but for a change here they were being introduced to every dish before they could even start.

Sensing the abnormality, Ryan thought to word the confusion out. She can't remain depressed just because he had made her aware about existence of some other woman in his life. "President Feng, is this some new way of analysis of your staff's performance appraisal?"

Feng Shufen tilted his head to the side, as he lifted his eyes to look at the woman who had just come after reviving from her internal trauma. His lips curled up to give a lopsided smirk and then said, "Ms. Kim, has really grown much known to the ways used in the business"

His words were not only the indirect acceptance, but also a creation of some mystery.

The woman smiled as she responded, "Glad that I was able to guess that!". The moment her words were completed the door was pushed open and in came the man pushing the dessert trolley. Everyone was taken aback when they saw who the man was!

Behind him the woman also entered in her chef costume. Since she has worked in the kitchen for so many hours now, her face was looking a little oily and dusty but her charms were still very alluring. She didn't mind her look. She was good till she looked healthy and presentable.

Every eye got fixed on her, not only because of her looks but more in the curiosity about the mystery she has built around herself. Who was she to bring the President's secretary at her service? Every mind was dwelling with this question but none dared to voice it out.

Looking at the person pushing the trolley in, several helpers rushed forward to help fearing that their job has definitely been at risk.

Ryan was also shocked when she caught the scene but what made her more shocked was the nonchalant expression on Feng Shufen's face. This was something she had not expected. She had known that the man has always favored the hierarchy of positions. Seeing him all good with the present actions pulling up in front, she was getting mixed feelings.

She turned back to look at the woman who has suddenly become the center of everyone's attention. She looked at her, trying to find what was so special in her to deserve such treatment but no matter however she looked, she could not point any.

She was still in her thoughts trying to read the woman in front when suddenly she heard the name that made everything clear in her head.

"Ms. Li Xue, you can proceed now!"
