"Li Xue, were you really a chef here before?" Shen Bingling still couldn't believe it. But reality couldn't be that twisted when everything was crystal clear on the surface. She has heard how respectfully the manager has come to greet her earlier. From his gesture and tone, it was enough to tell that not just the girl was a chef was also the best in her job. Otherwise, there are so many chefs around, not everyone gets respect wherever they go.
Li Xue didn't reply to the girl at first. Instead, made the waitress note the name of the dishes first before making her leave. Then turning to look at Shen Bingling, she shook her head to say, "I was just a dessert chef in one of their dessert chains. Nothing too high."
And at her modesty like that, Shen Bingling could just purse her lips. "As if I would believe that. If not too high, how do you explain getting the reservation here so easily? You know I have tried once but even after using the title of royals, I wasn't able to get seats here."
Li Xue smiled and then waved off the silver card in her hands. "It's not that tough for the employees of Feng Internationals until you have enough credit and bonus points on your employee card." She said, and hearing her like that Shin You Jun just pursed his lips.
Was she being modest? Nope, ask him and he would reveal how well the woman knows to show off. Even without the employee card, she would have been able to get the reservation here. It was just that she needed to take her name and title as Devil's wife and the people would have lined up to serve her with the best they had got.
Soon, no one said anymore. The food was served as they enjoyed the flavor enriched dishes one after the other. Since Li Xue made the reservations with her previous employee card when the bill arrived, necessary discounts were already made and she had just to swipe her card to pay it from her credit points.
"Thank you for your service." Li Xue said gratefully as she passed on a smile to the waitress who smiled back at her.
"Thank you, ma'am, for visiting us. We will be anticipating your next visit." The waitress spoke politely before bowing her head to leave.
Shen Bingling stood up happily. "And now I would also be anticipating your next invite." She said and Shin You Jun rolled his eyes.
"What invite? If you want to visit again, search for your way. Don't leech off my sister." He said and Li Xue simply shook her head at the two.
"Don't begin it here now. Let's go out first. It's already getting late; we need to return as well."
Shen Bingling pouted at the boy but when she heard Li Xue, she became obedient enough she nodded before taking her handbag. "Yep, it's getting late. Since we had our lunch, let's leave." She said and then walked ahead.
Li Xue couldn't read her thoughts any longer. So, simply not bothering with it, she turned to look at her brother before gesturing to him to follow as well. But Shin You Jun instead came to her side and said in a whisper, "Hey, elder sister, don't you feel the shame. Being the lady boss, you just robbed your own company. How can you be so stingy to use your employee card here?"
Li Xue rolled her eyes internally before turning to stare at him. "Saying about that, we can still undo it if you want. Come along and help me pay the bill. Being a prince, it doesn't look good seeing you miser either. You should help your state be richer with your money. Come on, give me your card and I will pay from it. I am sure it would be having enough money to pay for today's meal."
She said, extending her hand to take the card. But instead, the boy took a step back as if he had seen some big robber in the broad daylight. "What card? I don't have any. Furthermore, it was your treat. You were supposed to pay."
"Exactly! Since it was me who had to pay, let me decide from where I had to pay. You don't get to decide that. Moreover, those points haven't got credited to my card on their own, I have worked my ass off for it. So, its value is no less than money, okay?" Li Xue said, challenging the boy without showing it in her tone.
Shin You Jun could just pout at her. She had said it right earlier. His earlier victory over her was just out of some luck, otherwise, he could simply not win.
"Are we not leaving?" When the two siblings were busy in their own zone, Shen Bingling came back to snap them out of it. She had almost reached the exit door of the restaurant only to turn around to find them not following her. "I almost reached the exit and had to return back to look for both of you."
"We are sorry, Princess Shen. We just got busy with a talk or two. Anyway, let's leave." Li Xue said as the three soon walked out of the restaurant.
The moment Li Xue stepped out, she felt something weird about the surroundings. They walked towards the car park which was usually yet very unusually silent. The restaurant was not located in some busy areas. Instead, it was there in some secluded place. Although it was within the city, the place was still more in the silence of the trees than the bustling city sounds.
Li Xue's steps paused as she looked around. She felt like someone was staring at them. Not one but many of them. It felt weird. Although no one came into her sight, her intuition was very strong and even though she wanted to ignore it, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Li Xue took out her phone. Earlier when she went to the restaurant, she had asked the waitress to help her charge it, and finally, the battery was charged. Unlocking her phone, she dialed the number of Du Fan first.
Shin You Jun caught something weird in her attitude and asked, "What happened to you? Who are you calling now?
Before Li Xue could answer him, Du Fan answered the call to greet, "Good afternoon, Madam. I am already here at the restaurant and I will soon bring the car over. Just give me a moment." He said and soon Li Xue caught sight of her car near."
"Yes, Mr. Driver, I saw you." She said and disconnected the call. She wasn't scared of her intuition but she felt like right now she wasn't alone and held the responsibility of two more people. And seeing them getting injured around her would be the last thing she would want. And on top of that, she was yet to know what her intuition was actually about.
"Princess Shen, my car is here. So, I would leave on my own. You should also leave." Li Xue said and then turning to her brother, she said, "You Jun, Princess Shen has not brought her driver, it would be better if you drive her back. As for your bike, park it here and send someone later to pick it up."
Although Shen Bingling didn't find anything wrong in those words, Shin You Jun's eyes narrowed. Staring at her, he asked, "Elder Sister, I feel something is off. What is it? tell me, otherwise, I am not leaving." He said and right at that moment, a swish in the wind was heard near Shen Bingling's ears that made her scream in fear.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
