Chapter 75 - Lost Crown.
Every?pair eye?instantly turned to look at the woman's direction. These all dessert dishes were brought for her. But why?
Li Xue herself did not know how to react to this. She had no idea what was happening around. Not like she cared about the weird stares she was receiving but she was actually confused. She turned her face to look at Wen Sying, trying to find if this was some of her cheap tricks against her.
But then again that can't be possible since these were all Feng Internationals sweet dishes and no one can easily afford them like this.
Then what was exactly happening?
She looked at the waitress up in front and asked, "Excuse me, I am Li Xue. Can you please tell me what these are for? As far as I know I have not ordered any of them to be served and also these sweets are not something from your outlet but from Feng Internationals. Then why are you serving them here?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFeng Internationals!
Just at the mention of the name, several loud gasps of surprise filled in the room. These sweet dishes are from Feng Internationals! They were horrified at that sudden revelation. Wen Sying and Zhen Wenting were also shocked.
'Now what is she up to? Is this some of her plans to ruin this get together?' Sying looked at Li Xue as a current of hostility passed through her eyes but before anyone could even notice it, she returned back to her composure.
Gently tugging on Wenting's arm, she said all concerned "Wenting, what is this? What should we do now? I feel like Li Xue will get into trouble after this. Dishes from Feng Internationals are so expensive, I doubt that she could afford it. There must be some misunderstandings. We should help her … Okay? We can't leave her like this. She is still our friend even if she only aims hatred towards us".
With her words, anyone will think that she has only goods for Li Xue and she was someone who values friendship to her core. But the reality was not so fake. The truth was that the only feeling she could feel for her so-called friend was solely the feeling of envy.
She was jealous when Li Xue was leading on the top and even now when she has nothing. She can't help but feel something losing when she finds her smiling. It felt like all these years she has not achieved anything rather has remained on the same spot with nothing great.
Zheng Wenting patted her hands lightly in assurance and then again turned to look at the woman. He was also worried for her. Facing this situation again, he has confirmed one thing for sure. Even after so many years he was still solicitous about her problems. He wanted to help her
But seeing her so calm and confident like before, he felt like she was not in the need of his help rather was all capable to succour others. It was the same helpless feeling from his past where no matter how worse the situation went, Li Xue never came to seek his help. When she was all independent on herself and never needed him for her rescue.
Being a normal man, he also wanted his girlfriend to be a fragile, weak one who would always need him for herself. But Li Xue has never given him such happiness. Right at that moment too, the woman did not look at anyone for help rather held the controlling reins of the situation in her own hands.
Everyone has heard Li Xue's question and was eagerly waiting to hear the waitress reply. They also wanted to know why such an extra treatment was given to her? Not like she was still a fashion diva of the country whom people will try to appease.
The waitress smiled as she answered, "Yes Mam, you are right. Our restaurant has been taken over by Feng Internationals today and these sweet dishes are from their chefs. And as for serving them to you, it's nothing. It's our honor to have your presence here."
Everyone was taken aback. The admiration in the waitress's eyes were not fake, they were so real. At this moment Maomao, the woman from before said, "Umm I think you are mistaken. It must be in the honor of Wen Sying, she is the supermodel of our country. What's there to honor this woman whose reputation and name has been all spoiled"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs those words came out, instantly a glare was directed to her. It was not from Li Xue but from Zheng Wenting. The woman instantly felt that she was outspoken, subconsciously she turned to look at Sying for help.
Wen Sying shook her head at her and then said, "Maomao, why are you becoming so cruel with your words". Saying this she turned to the man and said, "Wenting I think there is some confusion. This waitress must have misunderstood things. How could Li Xue have any connection with Feng Internationals"
Li Xue, who was sitting on her chair all calm and silent was about to say something when Zheng Wenting asked the waitress, "I think there is some confusion here. Can you go and check once with your manager?"
The waitress smiled but then looking at the woman she said, "Sorry Mr. Zheng, I don't think there is any doubt here. This sweet dishes are surely for Ms. Li Xue. She is the Head Dessert Chef of Feng Internationals. How can we not honor her presence here? We have heard a lot about her and also that her dishes were even praised by Chief Executive Chef of Feng Internationals"
Those words were like high current jolts for the people who had tried their level best to look down on the woman moments before. They have not expected something like this coming. Even the boyfriend girlfriend duo was shocked.
Li Xue was now the Dessert Chef under Feng's label. That was surely something not easy for a woman who was completely in a different stream before and that too she was not any plain restaurant chef but the chef from a top brand that has widely spread all over the world.
Wen Sying felt her nails digging deep into her palms, making a few drops of blood come out. But to the irony of the situation there was a bright smile on her lips when she turned back to look at the woman. "Li Xue, you never said that you have become a dessert chef now. I am really happy for you. But you don't have to take too much stress in your life. It's not easy to live your life in the kitchen. If you want, we can help you"
"Haha … I never thought you worry for me so much Sying. But I guess I have too many wrong assumptions about you. Don't worry I am all happy and satisfied with my life now. And as you have known me already I never cared for the difficulty levels around me", Li Xue said giving an obvious smirk to her like she has already read the depths of her words.
She then turned to look at the waitress and gave a nod of acceptance. "Thank You for giving me such high importance. But I can't take this. I really congratulate all of you for joining the reputed label of Feng Internationals, but I am not as high as you are making me look like. These sweets … don't mind but I will pay for these"
Everyone was once again shocked. Did she really say that she is going to pay for all this? How? Won't that cost her more than her whole month's salary? What is up with this woman? Hasn't she already lost her crown, then how is she still having so many luxuries in her life?
