Chapter 239 - A blind date.

When Li Xue returned to the room after completing her work outside, her little daughter had long left the phone back at the side table and had moved to look into the mirror.?"Ayee! What happened WeiWei? The call?", she asked, gesturing her back to look at the phone.

"Ohh, Mama! Daddy Angel disconnected the call because you were busy. He had a meeting to complete" the little girl informed and Li Xue felt a little weird for a moment but then shrugged her shoulders back thinking that she must be overthinking about it.

"It's fine sweetheart. Now let's quickly make our move. Aunt Yi Lan will be here anytime soon. Come, I will help you put on your shoes", she said as she took Li Wei to get on her shoes

Before a month, Feng Shufen's schedule never knew anything about the weekends. He has kept himself into work for 24 hours of a day and 7 days of a week. But since the appearance of both Li Xue and Li Wei into his life he has never let go of any of his chance to spend his time with the two.

But today was a little different. He wanted to avoid the four continuous lined up meetings but couldn't do so seeing how long the clients have waited to get this appointment. Breaking the code of professionalism was the last thing he would want to commit.

Attending all the three meetings back to back in a line, he was happy when his work was about to end. Only one more meeting was left to call it a day. So pulling out his phone, he called Li Xue to inform her about his early wrapping of work only to know about her plans for dinner with Feng Yi Lan.

There was no problem in Li Xue going out. But he knew his little sister well enough to know that her intentions were not so simple as portrayed in the words of the little WeiWei. Bringing Li Xue dresses only to wear during a simple plain evening dinner was a little too much … This girl must have got something in her head. This was not at all simple.

Disconnecting the call, his eyes gave a warning glare to Gao Fan. "President Feng, do you need something?" Gao Fan asked when he saw his President looking at him with a gaze that was telling him that everything has been his fault and if again something goes wrong then he will be held guilty for it.

They have just come to a private lounge to take some rest before the next meeting could start again. The clients still needed time to reach the office while their team staff needed some rest.

Feng Shufen did not say anything. He just pulled his hands up to look at his watch and everything was already evident to Gao Fan. Quickly scrambling his legs, he went to follow the orders.

Soon the car came to halt at the city's best restaurant, Spoon Cuisine. It was a very posh restaurant, known for its appointment organisation for the customers. Rated with 5-star Michelin rating for good numbers of years now, it was truly hard to book reservations there as the list never had any spare seats. Even the A-list celebrities and other powerful personalities needed to take a month-long process to make the reservations to dine there for one evening.

Li Xue was not new to the place. She has been to the place in the past too. But her eyes went wide when she saw they had come to dine at such a difficult place when their plan was recently made just two weeks back.

Turning her head to look at the lady who can be blamed for such a big surprise, she said, "Yi Lan, from when, were you planning to come here? Are you trying to make me a scapegoat for something? Why such a lavish place? We would have dined somewhere else".

Feng Yi Lan shook her head as she said disappointedly, "I never thought my friend would take me such an easy one. This place is nothing, you know. What do you think of me? I am capable of booking the reservation even a night before if it means to bring a smile on your face. Being a top designer of the city, of course, I am at least capable of doing so … you know my fame and popularity".

She said boosting her fame and popularity up to the level of the sky but Li Xue knew everything well. No doubt her friend was capable of even digging the graves of people and then coming all cleaned and unharmed from it. But this place was not any simple restaurant, to begin with. This place has a record of not giving any care to anyone.

Squinting her eyes sharply at her friend, Li Xue said, "Really? You are capable of that much? I thought you have been even better than that." Her words were sarcastic enough to reach the peak.

"Fine, fine, I am not that capable but it's not wrong to use my elder brother's name sometimes. I think I can afford to do that once in a while", Feng Yi Lan said meekly with a slightly guilty tone as she shrugged her shoulders back in nonchalance.

"You used whose name?" Li Xue was stunned for a moment thinking if she was missing any crucial part of the story in the middle. Knowing her friend wisely, she also knew that using Shufen's name for something like this was not in Yi Lan's character. Then what has made today's evening so important to do so?

Pouting her lips lightly out, she said, "My brother's name!" She took a pause and then coming to her childish tone she continued, "But sweetheart, you can't blame me for anything. To make my friend's blind date more memorable, the setting around should be the must".

The more Li Xue heard her friend, the more she became stunned. Her eyes widened in surprise, more like in confusion when she heard her later words. "A date? For me? Yi Lann … what absurd are you planning in your head", she screamed in a low voice, not knowing exactly how she should react to all this.

"Mama, what's a blind date?" Li Wei asked looking up at both her mother and Aunt in confusion. All this while she was busy looking at the shiny lights around but when heard her mother's panicked low scream she turned to question them. Without knowing the meaning of these terms she won't be able to help her mother.
