Chapter 1280 A piece of great news.
Frowning at the number of missed calls in her call log, Li Xue pressed the button to call back. After just a few rings, the call was connected on the other side. Li Xue had just opened her mouth to speak but before she could even say a word, from the other side, Feng Yi Lan spoke with so anxiousness.
"Where were you, Li Xue? Do you know how many tis I have called you?"
Li Xue pressed her lips together. "Yi Lan, you have called more than twenty tis. Do you even know what that ans? Did you receive any calamity forecast? Or was the cloud about to burst?"
"…" Yi Lan went silent for a while. Even though there was no forecast of natural calamity, she was feeling one inside her.
When Li Xue felt the girl silent on the other side of the call, she asked, "Yi Lan, are you fine? Is there sothing?" She could already tell sothing was running in her head of the girl, otherwise, it had never happened that she was silent for more than ten seconds.
Feng Yi Lan humd. "Of course, I am fine. What could happen to ?" She said, giving a small flutter of laughter that died down before it could hardly begin. Then pausing for a mont, she said, "Li Xue, can we et. I had sothing to talk to you about."
There was sothing in her tone that made Li Xue realize that her friend needed her. So, not giving any second thought to it, she said, "Yi Lan, if you need , I can co now itself. Just tell where you are at the mont." She said as she had already taken her bag to leave.
But just then, Feng Yi Lan rejected. "No, no, Li Xue, you don't have to make it at this mont. It's already late; we can et tomorrow or any other day."
"Yi Lan, you know you can have my undivided ti anyti." Li Xue said, making sure to let her girl know that she was there for her whenever she needed her.
Feng Yi Lan chuckled. "I know, dear. But I also know that you must be extra tired today. So, I won't mind having your ti another day. You can have your ti just with my brother today." She said and Li Xue understood the veiled aning her words held. Her face flushed as she quickly agreed.
"Fine, then let's et tomorrow. I will choose the place and will let you know." She said and then hearing the hum of the girl from the other side, she disconnected the call.
Just when she kept her phone away, Feng Shufen ca out as well, all dressed in another set of ironed clothes. Li Xue looked at him and arched her brows, "You have sets of clothes here?" She asked and the man looked down at himself before nodding.
"Yes, Gao Fan always keeps it prepared here. If needed I change it before going to any eting." He said and Li Xue nodded understandingly. She then turned back to look at his desk where many files were kept, still unattended.
"You still have work. Complete it then we would go ho together." She said, before taking a seat on the chair.
Feng Shufen looked at her, his eyes narrowed slightly on the corner. But then without saying anything, he nodded before getting to his seat to check his files. A few monts later, while checking the files, he asked, "You said you have sothing to talk to about. What is it?"
Then folding the file away, he looked at her before taking another one to check. Li Xue matched his gaze but she hesitated. Looking back into his docunts, Feng Shufen didn't probe her but gave her the ti she required.
After a while, Li Xue finally thought about it all and then said, "Recently, soone filed a lawsuit against . They have cornered to an extent that no lawyers are ready to take my case. Although I have all the proof to win the case, I would still need a law figure to represent my case in the judiciary. So, I thought that to get the lawyers on my side, I should announce my relationship with you."
She said and paused to check the expression on her face of Feng Shufen. She wanted to read his thoughts, but he looked all nonchalant as if she didn't say sothing he had not expected. "What? Do you think I am using you?"
Feng Shufen looked up at her and then shook his head. "Nope, I was thinking how you can use in a better way? Would you want to beco a partner in one of my companies?" He asked and Li Xue felt speechless.
Blinking her eyes, she asked to confirm, "Partner in your company? What does that an?"
"The company I am referring to is my standalone plan that has never involved any partnership. If people co to know that you are my partner in it, it would beco a piece of great news." He explained, and Li Xue couldn't believe him.
Great news! That would create havoc that would almost turn the whole market upside down. Hubby, what has gone wrong with your choice of words? Did you forget to read your words well? How could you call such high destruction so easy?
Although on the surface Feng Shufen looked all nonchalant about her plans, on inside, he was bubbling with excitent. His shining grey orbs alone could tell it.
When Feng Shufen waited for Li Xue to agree to his plans, but when he didn't see her saying anything, he said, "I will call Gao Fan and ask him to make the arrangents." He said and picked up his phone to make a call. But right at that ti, Li Xue held him.
"Mr. Beelzebub, wait a second. You can't do that." She said hurriedly as if a mont's delay would ss things up.
