On the other side, all oblivious of the things, Li Xue was already on her way in the elevator. Since the elevator was restricted to the Secretariat floor, pressing the last key of the floor, she turned to get busy on her phone. Humming soft music, she was all calm and chilled when suddenly her phone rang.
Finally seeing Yi Lan's name appear on the screen, she shook her head internally before receiving the call in an instant. "Yi Lan, do you still remember me? Otherwise, I almost thought that your work trip had swallowed you whole."
"Oh, I am sorry, sweetheart. You know how bad sleeping habits I have. After checking into my room yesterday, I wasn't able to keep myself awake. The jet lag I had was also not helping me out. So, I wasn't able to pick your calls. By the way, was there something urgent?" Hearing her Li Xue sweet chide, Feng Yi Lan didn't delay defending herself.
Li Xue could only breathe in a deep breath of patience.. She would have been surprised if someone else had flaunted their bad habits this well, but since it was Feng Yi Lan it was quite believable for her.
Nodding to nothing particular, she didn't say more on that topic. Instead stated the reason for which she had been calling all this while. "Yes, Yi Lan, there was something important. I had some problems with selecting the outfit for an event. So I was looking for you. I even went to your studio. But since you are gone, the essence of your studio is also gone. And none of your people could prepare a dress for me at such short notice."
Feng Yi Lan hummed at her words and Li Xue could literally imagine her rubbing her chin in thought at the moment. But what she said was also true and she knew her friend would also agree to it.
"So, what are your plans?" Giving some thought, Feng Yi Lan asked.
And Li Xue could already see her ready with a plan to help her, even when she was not around. She smiled at her such ready-to-help attitude and said, "That's okay, Yi Lan. I am right now going to ask for help from the person who would always have a way to help me. I am sure this wouldn't be a great problem to say."
"Are you referring to my brother, dear?" Feng Yi Lan asked and in her tone the threat was clear.
Sensing it as well, Li Xue chuckled and then hummed softly. "Mhm. Since you are not here, I could only ask for his help. You know he is the only option after you." She said, calculating her words well.
"…" For a second, Feng Yi Lan didn't say anything but then sighing, she commented, "Darling, you are truly becoming a witch, living in the influence of the devil. You know well to coax me even living in a different country. Fine, I will let you slide away just for you considering me the option before my brother."
"Haha … of course, you have been in my life before him. How could I consider him a better option than you." Li Xue has a little more build-up and she knew hearing her say that like this, her friend's blush mode would have been already on.
"That's enough, Li Xue. You have already coaxed me, now you don't have to send me to the seventh sky. I am fine with you considering my brother to be the second option. And for this problem, I think he is the best option." Yi Lan said, giving some thought but then paused, to ask in a bit confused tone. "What did you say, Li Xue? Where are you going?"
Li Xue was a bit taken aback by her sudden tone change but then said, "I am going to meet your brother. I already said that. Right now, I am in the elevator ascending to the secretariat floor of the company. Why? Is there a problem?"
"Dear, how could you be there at this time? Last night when I talked with Brother Shuai, he said today he would be announcing some project to the media. That only meant, at this moment there must be a bunch of reporters at the company and you are also there. That's not good. Come back immediately. Fast! Fast!" Feng Yi Lan almost yelled frantically over the call.
And her words almost left Li Xue with no option as well. She was ready to press the button back for the ground floor, but she knew well too that even if she presses it now, it wouldn't be helping her in any way. Though not at the dead end, she still felt like she was struck at the only end.
"Yi Lan, I have pressed the key to return to the ground floor. But I don't think that would be able to help. And also I have pressed the key to the Secretariat floor. It would be an issue if I got down on that floor. I would always go and wait for Mr. Beelzebub in his office." She said keeping her thoughts positive. But little did she expect that it was a bit too late to think that.
"Fine then. Get down on the Secretariat floor and I will also go and call Brother Shuai first. He must be a help" Feng Yi Lan said and then disconnected the call to dial Qi Shuai's number.
And just after the call got disconnected, the door of the elevator dinged open. Li Xue was ready to get off it thinking it was the Secretariat floor, but her steps paused when something unfamiliar struck her.
'This isn't the Secretariat floor. Did I press the wrong key?' She asked internally before tilting her head to check the floor on which the elevator had paused. And as expected it wasn't the floor she had asked for. "Isn't this the floor where the lunch meeting had happened last time?" She mumbled to herself but her words were answered by someone else.
"Yes, this is the Conference floor. Are you also here to attend the press meet?"
Li Xue froze for a moment as her eyes raised to look at the person who had answered her. Then shaking her head, she denied. But before she could say anything, she heard hurrying steps of people arriving from a distance.
