<h4>Chapter 903 - Dare Not Defy.</h4>


    As expected, without Feng Yi Lan, Aurora Fashions was not in too good condition. Though the management was working well and attending Li Xue, at such an urgent notice it was still a difficult task that none could do.


    "We are really sorry, Ms. Li Xue. But we are still not able to reach Ms. Feng Yi Lan. Without her, it would be tough to think of something this fast". The studio staff apologized and Li Xue couldn''t say anything to them. She knew Feng Yi Lan to be the soul of Aurora and without her, she had already expected things to end this way.


    Smiling, Li Xue shook her head. "It''s fine. I should havee here with some time so that you could think of something for me. My bad! Anyway, don''t worry, I will look for any other sources.." She said before getting up to leave.


    Now that she was left with only one option, she better not dy with it. Getting out of the studio, she sighed a bit then looking at Du Fan, she said, "Mr. Driver, I think you were right to ask me to reach your Young Master first. I would have saved a ride. Now,e on, take me to him. I am already feeling tired with this stress."


    Du Fan heard her say that and nodded, before taking the ride to Feng International straight. He was so happy to take thedy to the office that he almost forgot the most important thing happening in thepany.

    While at the same time in the Royal Pce, Chen Rui sat reading her files with sses on when she heard someone''s expected greetinge from ahead.


    "Your Highness!"


    Her lips curled up slightly as raising her eyes up, she looked at the person who has already asked her permission before appearing in front of her. "Su Ce!! You are finally here. I almost thought that my concern for youst time has offended you and that''s the reason, you aren''ting to meet me again."


    She said while gesturing to him to take the seat. In her words, her taunt was evident. Even if it was mistakenst night, people could be sure of it now, given her straight words.


    Su Ce looked at her and smiled, before shaking his head anding forward to sit on his deserving ce across thedy. "How can that be, Your Highness! Your care and concern were so evident in your orders that I dare not get offended by it. It was just the next day after that night was a little hectic for me, so I wasn''t able to make it for lunch. There were details of the people I needed to look into. So, I hope you wouldn''t mind me missing the lunch date here."


    He said, holding a meaningful smirk at thedy. His eyes were yful as well and that look of him was enough to let Chen Rui understand what the man was up to. And what details he was talking about.


    But keeping her calm, still on the great check, she didn''t let her expression waver even a bit and said, "Not at all! Work should alwayse first, especially to a person like you, who excels in almost every field."


    Su Ce''s smile turned modest on the surface but the royaldy''s eyes were sharp enough to see beneath them. She knew though the man was intending to scare her in the name of Li Xue, she was sure he might not be able to get near a strand of her information. After all, Shufen''s security circle was not an easy say.


    "You consider me too high, Your Highness. I am just trying my best to be better, the same as His Highness was once used to be." Su Ce said and to his polite audaciousness, Chen Rui didn''t hold back.


    "His Highness is still the same. Even back in time and even now. Though practicing to be like him is good, to realize the reality is also essential. Not anyone could be like him after all having the right blood also matters." She said and understanding the meaning of those words the Prince of East forced a smile.


    Standing up, he propered his jacket, "Her Highness, I still have somewhere to reach. Forst time''s lunch date, I apologize again. But I am sure once the cultural project begins, I will get the honor to dine with you. And also to meet Ms. Li Xue" He said, taking a small pause in his words and then adding, "I have heard a lot about her in recent days. I am sure she would be a personality having many interesting attributes to pique Her Highness''s interest like this. I am really looking forward to it".


    He said and Chen Rui''s eyes showed a bit of sharpness that she leveled well with a graceful smile. "Indeed! She is special. Very special! You will know that soon as well; just have some patience"


    Su Ce nodded and then turning, he left. Until he disappeared, the royaldy''s eyes remained fixed at him, and only when she heard someone interject from behind, she turned to look back.


    "Rui, do you have to prick his nerve every time?" Shin Tinming, who has well heard all the talk between his wife and Su Ce said. Taking a stroll, he entered the living hall and took his seat beside her.


    Chen Rui shrugged her shoulders before looking back into her files. "He asked for it himself. I was just reminding him of the thing that he often dares to forget."


    "Rui!"


    "What? Am I wrong?" Chen Rui asked, sharply looking up at her husband. "Tinming, one''s blood may not state his character. But that never means it doesn''t hold any importance. It has been the blood that has once made you the king of this empire. And it''s also his blood that would never give him the privilege to get on the position of the king. It will only be right for him to get this thing straight and clear in his mind."


    She said and her words held a seriousness that at the moment even Shin Tinming dare not to defy.
