Chapter 507 - Kindness -a pretty accessory for every woman to carry.

Li Xue's steps suddenly paused when suddenly she felt someone slumping down her feet. She flinched a little back on her footing, hitting the back of her head on the sturdy muscled c.h.e.s.t of the boy who was following her mother from behind with a polite but sullen face. A perfect example of a bratty kid whose demands have not been fulfilled for the first time.

"Could you please watch it properly while walking? Or my mother would simply sentence me to death thinking that I am trying to harm you" Shin You Jun grumbled lightly under his breath, same as a young brother complaining about his parent's meaningless bias-ness towards his other sibling

Looking at him like that, Li Xue rolled her eyes as she said with a pressed smile, "Only if I could do something then instead of sentencing you to death, I would have asked her to send you for year-long disciplinary procedures. That way you would have learned something better. But don't worry sweet and steady tortures are also not bad. You will get better that way too".

"You …" Shin You Jun pulled his hand up to point the finger of accusation at Li Xue but right then they heard a meek cry on the floor.

In between their bantering, they have almost forgotten that there was someone on the floor that has made the woman flinch on her steps before.

"Ma'am, please forgive me. I was all unknown to your identity!"

It was the same manager from before who had sided with Wen Sying and Liu Hua. He was there on his knees, looking all terrified for something that was not visible on the surface.

Li Xue was confused looking at him that way. Her eyes stared at him complicatedly, not understanding the things but Chen Rui's eyes were already showing hints of knowledge like she had perfectly deduced what it was all about.

"Mam, please, forgive me. Don't kick me out of my job. I will never repeat things the same way. But please forgive me. I won't be getting any other good job if I get kicked out from here. Help me out this once and I promise things won't get repeated", the manager pleaded, looking down on the floor.

Li Xue frowned at his words. When did she make any complaint to kick him out of his job? Was he making a show here? But her doubts got cleared when she saw the stoic face of the Gao Fan at a distance.

Her lips pressed together as she concluded internally, 'Oops! So, Mr Beelzebub has already got knowledge about it.'

Gao Fan gave a bow of respect, the moment he saw the woman looking at him. But his stern expression did not change. Even from the distance, Li Xue could see the hardened expression he was holding on his face while his fingers stiffly curled behind.

With his restrained temperament, Li Xue could only understand what must have ruined the thing at his end. The secretary would have wanted to punish the manager in his own way, i.e., by kicking him out of the job but Feng Shufen would have asked him to leave the decision in the hands of her. And now seeing the man begging down on his knees, he would be thinking that maybe she would let him off in the name of kindness.

Wasn't kindness pretty accessory women always like to carry?

Li Xue pressed her lips together when put the things correctly in the right place. She turned to look back at the manager. Without any say, he was looking miserable in a way where every woman would go kind on him and forgive him given to his words of begging. But then …

"Hey, what are you thinking about? He is begging so much to you, just forgive and let him go. And he is already saying that he would not repeat the same attitude with you ever" Shin You Jun said, feeling all irritated seeing the man on the floor, begging for mercy.

Li Xue looked back over her shoulders and said simply, "Oh, I see. The Crown Prince has got really good eyes of justice. Thank you for your advice. I am feeling really honoured."

Shin You Jun almost stomped his foot at her sarcastic remark but then he remembered, his mother's eyes were still staring at him.

"Ma'am …" The manager began again but his words were cut down the moment it began.

"Sorry, I am not too kind to let you off Mister. Even though what you said made me feel sad for you and I know that finding good salaried jobs is really difficult. But what's the use of having a good-paying reputable job when you are not able to keep your responsibilities and professional attitude properly. With your manner of conduct earlier, I didn't feel that you ever treasure your job and given to that even if you swear on your own death, I cannot bring myself to forgive you".

"So, please don't expect any help from me!" Li Xue said in one tone. Her words, neither sounding too arrogant, nor too liberal. She presented her decision along with her reasons.

Gao Fan was stunned at the distance. It felt like he again misjudged his Lady Boss. She was not like other women. The secretary did not wait as he quickly ordered his men to drag the man out.

Chen Rui, who was standing behind could only smile at the girl's words. All this time she was waiting to hear her decision. She was curious to see how her sense of justice was!

While Shin You Jun could feel speechless. Though he knew the decision was all right and perfect and for a moment he felt like he saw the justice attitude of his father in her, still he could not bring himself to accept that a lady could be this ruthless at times. Didn't they say that ladies from good families were groomed with the qualities of kindness and love? Then …

"You are really a witch. Ma, did you see that? She was so harsh and ruthless. She didn't bat an eye to that man's words of begging. Do you still prefer her over me? I am sure the previous accusation about her must also be right. She just got saved because of you" Shin You Jun in a grumpy tone as he kept his eyes still at Li Xue. "You, witch, you tricked my mother for supporting you in wrong. You know how righteous my mother has been all her life, yet you tricked her".

"You Jun, didn't I say to check your tone before you speak?" The woman warned again. "And there is nothing to blame Xiao Xue for. I believe her" Chen Rui retorted to her son, the moment he started blabbering the words against Li Xue.

But Li Xue was not the one to keep the fa?ade mask on her face, especially in front of the person who is claiming to believe her like this. She was not the one to break someone's trust, neither ruining someone's faith has been her hobby.

"Ma, that was not a lie. What Madam Li said about me harassing Wen Sying in the restroom was true. I did try to strangle her". She confessed.
