<h4>Chapter 170 - Even in your bad, my heart will find its reasons to love you.</h4>
Feng Shufen''s eyes went dark when he saw about which scratch Li Xue was talking about. "I already said that it is a simple scratch. I can manage with this", The woman said, not getting sure about what expression the man was holding on his face. She was just not allowing her eyes to move up and look at his face. She fears that if she does then she won''t be able to control her heart anymore.
No one has ever been so caring and loving to her!
Earlier she has heard the concern in his voice and has also felt his soft touch that he has just reserved for her. His care and stubbornness were already melting the ice walls she has pulled up around herself, now she does not want to risk thest ounce of rigidness she was holding against their rtionship.
"Shuai, bring me the first aid box" Feng Shufen ordered and then pulled Li Xue to sit on the chair, and got himself kneeled in front of her. Li Xue went stiff at his voice. It was so cold that hearing it alone can make people freeze. She again wanted to say that it was just a small wound and there is nothing to be this serious. But this time she feared that if she brought those words again then it will be hard for her to take the consequences.
Obediently getting herself settled on the chair, she allowed the man to do whatever he wanted. Soon her wound was cleaned and dressed. To say that it was just a scratch will be an understatement. A shard has pierced her skin a little too deep to ignore the wound. Though it did not look like a major one still, it needed attention and care to avoid further infection.
At the side, Ryan felt herself burning in the fire of hell. But at this time the jealousy in the heart was suppressed by the anxiousness ring inside her. Seeing Feng Shufen so caring and doting towards the woman, she was not sure if she would be forgiven or not.
At this moment, she only wanted to be spared so that she could follow him around. Her hopes to get an important position in the man''s heart was already weakening but she does not want to lose itpletely. She wanted to hold thest string even if it cost her, her whole life.
"How did this happen?" suddenly a deep, dark voice came, snapping everyone out from their thoughts. Feng Shufen was still kneeling on the floor, holding Li Xue''s hand into his.
Qi Shuai, who was feeling the most fatigued there, almost jumped in horror. His eyes instantly flew to look at that the only saviour that could protect them at this time. ''Sister – in –w, now I only have you. Please save me. You know it better that it was not my fault but this Devil will simply not spare me'', he appealed internally, gazing at Li Xue with his puppy eyes
When Li Xue caught the look of the overdramatic CEO, she had no idea how she should respond to it. It was not like she always has ideas and ns to save the world ready in her head. She wanted to simply shrug her shoulders saying that nothing was in her control but looking at the pity state of the Director, she had no heart to leave him like that.
Not knowing what to do she worked on her instincts. But before doing anything, her eyes for once went to look at Ms Kim, who looked more sympathetic than Qi Shuai. Looking at her pale face, it felt like she had been hollowed out from inside. Shaking her head at her condition, she turned to look back at the man.
His eyes were still analyzing her already bandaged palms. Looking at him like this, her heart softened. Feeling such a tender gaze on himself, Shufen too looked up to match her gaze. "Will you hate me, if I will tell you the truth?" Her voice came all soft and fragile, provoking his instincts to be more caring and protective towards her. Urging his heart to pamper her to the fullest.
"I can never hate you. Even in your bad, my nonexistent heart will find its reasons to love you". His words were simple but the meaning it held behind was no more near simple. That one dialogue can alone melt thousands of women''s hearts at once.
Li Xue was also taken aback with such sudden confession. Though this man has confessed his intentions several times and she has felt heart moving at his every action but this time his words were a little different. Without putting any effort and avoiding all her restraints, it directly went to target the soft spot of her beating organ.
Feng Shufen has also not expected to say something like this. He was the man, who has never considered his heart and feelings until this most beautiful and adorable woman appeared in his life. And now that he has taken concern for it, there is no turning back. He simply could not take any control of his heart in her presence, everything goes as per the instincts she awakens inside him.
Ryan''s fists got clenched at her sides, her nails digging deep into her skin making a few drops of blood ooze out to no care when heard him say such words. This was definitely not the man she has known for more than half of her life. When did he change so much?
And Qi Shuai almost wanted to kneel in front of him. When did his friend learn such powerful pickup lines? He was sure that it was not him who had taught him such lines, so was it some love guru with whom his friend had started getting lessons from? He thought and wanted to confirm it. But looking at the sweet moment in front of his eyes, he simply does not want to ruin it.
Li Xue looked at the man and did not know what to say anymore. Her thoughts got messed up making her unable to say what she wanted. Rather made her ask for a confirmation of his words. "Are you sure?"
She regretted the moment those words slipped out her lips. She wanted to take those back but before she could say anything else, the man said in a firm and resolute tone. "The day I fail to keep my words and promises with you, I ask heaven to bury me alive."
