Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 300 - What if I make you go bankrupt?

Chen Yujian's jaws instantly clenched tight, as his eyes went to send glares to the man. He was already getting suspicious that the papers of the file were purposely made to go missing, yet the man was showing guts to go against his words.

"Dare to say that again and you won't be sitting in the same chair of qualification the next moment" he scowled. "Who are you planning to teach rules and regulations? Do you think I am someone to follow these shitty rules?"

The librarian was all baffled at his words. He can feel the air of high dominance. Did he offend someone he shouldn't? Wasn't this young man just some newly joined intern under the branch, then why is he saying it in a way where it felt like he was the owner of the place?

"Sir, I am just stating the rules the higher-ups have asked us to follow. To offend you or anyone has not been my intention." The librarian said, his voice slightly shaky in the end.

Chen Yujian let out a loud chuckle, "Just following the rules you have been asked for? Huh? Did you forget what you have been paid for? Your most important responsibility is to safeguard these things yet look they are missing. Are you still qualified to sit here to take the charge?"

Getting blamed so directly, the man's forehead instantly formed beads of cold sweat. "Sir … I … I …"

But before he could say anything Li Xue said from the other side, "That's enough, Yujian! Don't create another mess when we already have one to deal with".

Taking a deep breath in, to calm her anxious nerves down, she said, "Okay, let's forget about the lost recipe for now. I would still have some idea about the dessert dish if I come to know about the inspiration behind its creation and can see how it looked. So, of course, the remaining details in the file can also be a lot useful".

"Okay, that's fine then. I will take this file to you, right at this moment", Chen Yujian said, as he was ready to take his steps out of the library with the file in hands. And with his domineering, rebellious aura, no one present there would have been able to stop him.

But right at the moment, before he could take his step out, Li Xue halted him. "There is no use of taking that file to me Yujian. Just go according to the rules. Sometimes following rules are not as bad as you think."

Chen Yujian was baffled at her words. Was this woman playing a word mystery game with him at this time? Didn't she say that the situation is really crucial?

"Xena, didn't you say to yourself that this file could be helpful for you? And now when I am bringing it to you, then you are asking me to follow the rules? What does this mean?"

Li Xue let out a sigh of exhaustion. "I am not denying my previous words, Yujian. Just telling you that it is not necessary to bring that file here. Furthermore, if you come here with that file, it will only cost us more time when we are already lacking it. Just snap the pictures of the pages of the file and send them to my phone for reference. That will be fine"

She explained her reasons and the young man instantly wanted to kneel down in front of her. He could not believe that even in a situation like this, this woman can have such a calm mind to look into every detail. If it had been someone else, then definitely he or she would have lost their hopes. But this woman was simply too tough and confident for her own good.

Only if his Devil Uncle had not met her before then he would have pursued her. But now she was her Aunt and he would have to respect. He sighed internally, as his brain cracked a joke on its own.

"And also if the librarian says anything then just tell him that being a lawful Head Dessert Chef of Sweet Delicacy registered under the roof of Feng International, if something happened later regarding this then she would be the one taking the blame so he should not worry", Li Xue added.

For instance, Chen Yujian felt like she was a mother who was letting her kid know that no one can bully him because he has got her support.

What? Did she really think of him as nothing but a kid?

Getting all sullen at the thought, he simply gave a firm affirmation, "Okay, I will snap the pictures and will send it to you right away".

Before Li Xue could give a nod or any words of appreciation, the call was disconnected, making her brows wrinkle in a little confusion.

All this while she has almost forgotten the things she has decided earlier in the morning. This chaos has almost made her feel so exhausted that at this moment she wanted nothing but to solve it as fast as possible. For a second, she wanted to run far away in search of some relaxation. A place where all these things do not affect her anymore.

And like Heavens have heard her wishes, soon her best source of relaxation made its way to reach her heart. Her phone rang again, letting her know that someone was remembering her at some corner of the world, or say the same city.

Her lips tugged upwards when saw who was calling her. "Hello!" she answered the call all cheerfully but still, her cheerfulness was not able to wash away the weariness she was feeling in reality.

"What happened? Are you fine?" the man asked from the other side, realizing the change in her voice and tone. "You seemed tired!"

"Ah … that, I am totally fine. Just a little here and there of work. Don't worry I will manage!" she said, not able to understand how well this man can look through her. Just her voice was enough for him to know that something was wrong with her.

Feng Shufen let out a small, soft chuckle on the other side that almost made Li Xue forget everything around. Her breath got hitched while her arms went to brace her stomach trying to lessen the feathering feeling she was feeling inside. His small laughter was a way enough to change everything around her.

"I have no doubt that you will manage everything perfectly," He said and Li Xue's lips formed a pout of suspicion.

"Why are you so sure? What if I drown your whole business in the pool of all losses and make you go bankrupt? Your all hard-earned money will be wasted then" She said, not understanding what made Mr Beelzebub is so confident in her capabilities. If she remembers it well; it has been like this from the very first day they met. First, at the lunch banquet and then also today.

The man did not reply for a good moment and Li Xue thought that finally, he had reconsidered his confidence. But the moment she was about to word out her conclusion, she heard him say, "If that ever happens then you have to take better responsibility for me for life. I would have to live off on your money then".

At such words, the whole universe can go speechless, how can Li Xue be an exception!
