Chapter 1371: Craving to remember you.
Although Li Xue was saying it very clearly, Bai Yuchen was simply not ready to believe her. And her denial was very clear on his expressions.
Opening his mouth, he was ready to counter but right before he could even sputter a word, Feng Shufen spoke in his cold voice. "Bai Yuchen has been once known for his deep analysis in the market sector. Having doubts shouldn't be his forte."
Although his words did say anything explicitly, still what he said was more than enough to tell them everything.
When Bai Yuchen heard him, he was struck dumb. Shaking his head, he was ready to speak again but once again Feng Shufen beat him in that. Turning his eyes back to Li Xue, he spoke in a gentle voice, "The product launch is almost done here. There must not be anything else for you here. Since you are tired, we should head home first."
He said, and his readiness in accepting everything even surprised Li Xue. Maybe, she didn't really think he would readily accept her story in front of everyone so easily. And now that he has done so, she couldn't help but blink her eyes at him before giving a nod. "Yes, I am tired. We should leave."
She said and then turning to Bai Yuchen, she repeated the same, "CEO Bai, since we are almost done here, I think there is nothing more for me to do here. It was pleasant working with your brand. Thank you for looking after me all this while. I will take my leave first."
Saying that she gave a small smile before turning and leaving the place with Feng Shufen.
Behind, Bai Yuchen had no words. Except for looking in the direction where Li Xue left, he had nothing else to do as well.
The reporters were also taken aback. They have been waiting all this while to get exclusive words of Feng Shufen and Li Xue. But now seeing them leaving, they have no other choice but to rush after them to take their interview.
But before they could even reach them, Qi Shuai came in the front to stop them in their tracks.
"Hey! Hey! Hey, dear people. Where are you going? Don't you feel you are being unfair to me? I mean on usual days, it's me who keeps you fed with the news of Feng Internationals and its president. And now that today you have got Feng Shufen in front, you all are blatantly ignoring me. That's truly unfair and if I had been in place of you, I would have not staked my long term profit for the short term curiosity."
He said and the reporters at once halted at his meaning of words. But their eyes still greedily stared towards the exit from where Feng Shufen and Li Xue were almost disappearing.
"Director Qi, we have no such intention. We were just curious to hear President Feng's words on his own relationship. Also, we wanted to ask him about his previous wife. Did he divorce her to get into relationship with Li Xue?" One of the reporters said, and at his question like that, Qi Shuai almost staggered at his footing.
Choking on his breath, he quickly turned back to check behind. Only finding that the sinful words had not reached the ears of Feng Shufen did he sigh with relief.
"Such a narrow escape." He huffed a deep breath out before turning again to look at the reporters and asking, "Do you know how slightly you have escaped your death? You guys are really lucky that your words didn't reach his ears or else …" He didn't complete his words but at that moment a shiver ran down the spine of each and every reporter, letting them know that they spoken something they shouldn't have.
Outside, after Li Xue and Feng Shufen left hand in hand, getting out from the premise in the parking lot, Li Xue couldn't help but feel the urge of laughing thinking about all that had happened inside. And since there were no judging eyes around, she didn't hold back and laughed out loud.
When she felt her laughter was getting louder, she pulled her hand out from the hold of Feng Shufen and pressed it over her lips to say, "O my god! I still can't believe it." Turning to look at Shufen, she added, "In just one day I made you my boyfriend, fiancee and husband. Can you believe it? Haha … Because I still can't. Amazing!"
She spoke and laughed. But Feng Shufen simply stared at her with a lack of expression. More like his eyes were holding an accusation for her.
When Li Xue felt his gaze at her like that, she paused and then getting control over her laughter, she said, "What? Don't look at me with that accusative gaze. I know it's not believable but it did happen, right?"
Her tone was that of casualness but Feng Shufen's gaze didn't ease. He still looked at her as if accusing her of something. Just when Li Xue was about to ask what was that about, he said, "The things that happen twice are more believable than anything else. How can I not believe it?"
Li Xue was dumbfounded for a moment. Her gaze matched with his when she realized what he actually said. Her brows jutted together as she asked, "This has really happened before as well?"
Feng Shufen didn't reply but stared at her silently for a moment. And his silence was enough for Li Xue to understand that her sense of deja vu from before was not just a feeling but something that really happened.
A small smile appeared on her lips. She didn't remember when it happened but she was sure that it must have been a memory she never wanted to forget. "If your play of staying strangers has gotten over, are you willing to tell me about it? I am craving to remember my past with you."
