Chapter 370 - Golden Royal card!

Chapter 370 - Golden Royal card!

Li Xue smiled at the Queen as she came pressing a cotton ball on her elbow. As she had decided, she only donated one fill of her blood and soon Feng Shufen's men brought another man to take her place.

"Her Highness, I would say again that you don't have to worry. His Majesty will be all fine very soon", she said getting near her.

The Royal Queen merely smiled at her words of assurance. Then reaching her face with her hands, she patted her cheek lightly with some adoration as she said, "Thank you, child! For today, I would always be grateful to you. In future, if you ever need something, we will always be there for you. You can always come and ask for our help and we will provide you without asking any of your plans and reasons".

She said and Li Xue could feel that touch of love the woman was giving to her. Curling her lips little up, she reciprocated to her gratefulness, "Your Highness! You are just taking my help to some other track. I never intended to take any reward in return. Helping humankind does not expect any gratefulness in return. So, you don't have to feel burdened for the help I have provided today."

Li Xue said and all her words meant exactly what she truly felt in her heart. Getting any reward from the royals has never been in her plans the same as becoming slaved blood – donor pig has not been in her intentions.

The lady smiled at her words as she added, "Modesty is good, child! But no one knows what the future beholds for you. So, let's talk about the future. Since I have already given you my words, it will be a royal promise and would never become a lie." As she said her eyes moved to signal the butler behind. The butler nodded politely at her gesture and then went away for some time.

Then after some moment came back with a maroon brocade box in his hands. Coming just behind the queen he forwarded the box in the direction of Li Xue.

Li Xue looked at him and the brocade box with some confusion and then turned to look at the lady. Not understanding what it was for, she asked, "Your Highness, this …?"

"It's for you. Please accept it" she said as she gestured to her to take the box in her hold.

Rejecting the box would have been taken as a disrespect so, in the end, Li Xue took the brocade box. Not knowing what to do next, she opened it to find a golden carved card inside it. "This is not a reward for you. So, don't see it like one. It's just a gift of gratefulness we are giving you. Using this card, you could always be able to come to us without any appointment or prior notice. And …"

The Queen said but before she could reach any full stop to her sentence, her words were interrupted.

"There would be no such need arriving in the future. She would always have me by her side and I would take care of all her needs" Feng Shufen said, coming forward to pull Li Xue into his embrace, reminding the people about his presence around.

Li Xue looked at him from the side and let out a sigh of relief. She was really struggling to reject the queen's words. But he did it so effortlessly like the dignified title of Royal Queen has never been in any regard to him.

The butler's brows got irked as he sensed the disrespect in the air. But his features got sobered when he heard the soft laughter of the Queen, who easily shrugged off the offence in the way which wiped off its existence itself.

"Ohh, it looks like our little FenFen is still the same as he has been in his childhood!" she commented, looking all amusedly at Feng Shufen. "All so possessive about the things and people he holds dear to his heart!"

Li Xue was dumbfounded at her words but she decided to keep her confusion all sealed in her pocket.

"But never mind! You don't have to be scared so much about it, Darling. This Aunt will not be taking her away from you. I am just finding her good to keep her around myself. You know in the castle I am always so lonely" The queen said and her tone was no longer restricted with mannerisms. The way she was wording out her thoughts was creating more and more informal air around.

"My wife is not a freelancer to entertain Her Highness around" he directly rejected the idea with few words and then added, "Now it would be better if I take her away to take some rest. After donating so much blood she must be feeling weak ".

He said and without hearing the reply, took Li Xue back into the nearby room, supporting her by her shoulder. Li Xue was speechless. There was nothing more she could say to him, not like she had any complaints. She too wanted to get away from the Queen to take some breather of relief.

Turning her head a little to look back, she smiled at the woman but then followed the man obediently inside the room.

Once away from the scrutinizing gazes of the Queen and the butler, Li Xue opened the brocade box again to look at the golden card. It has the royal family name carved on it beautifully. Her eyes glowed looking at it, as she said, "Mr Beelzebub, don't you think that the Royal family is very good in heart. Look at this card, it looks awesome. With this in my hand, have I also become rich overnight?"

Her eyes were still staring at the golden card when suddenly the card disappeared with a swoosh. Her eyes widened in a shock as she accusingly looked at the man. She was about to ask what his actions were about but before she could question, the man answered on his own.

"With me by your side, do you think you are any poorer?" The man chuckled grimly, not understanding what track of logic did this woman's understanding work. Then getting all firm he continued, straining all his attention at the useless card in his hand, "You won't need this with me around. So, this is just some useless thing they have offered to you. Leave it with me and I will send it back to them".
