Li Xue didn''t know what was in the ns of Feng Shufen but she was really curious to know about it. Getting ready, she had a few understanding words with Little WeiWei before she made her way out with Feng Shufen.
"Where are we going?" Li Xue asked when she couldn''t decipher the direction where the car was heading to. She waited to hear Feng Shufen reply while looking out of the window. But when she didn''t hear anythinging, she turned to look at him with raised brows.
Feng Shufen''s gaze was looking straight at the road, but Li Xue knew that he could feel her questioning eyes at him. And she wasn''t wrong to think so because just after she turned to look at him like that, he spoke. "Towards the City End cliff."
Li Xue''s brows got raised in surprise as she repeated to confirm, "City End cliff?" She asked and the man didn''t repeat, intending wordlessly that she had heard it right.
Li Xue turned to look out of the window once again and somewhere, she could now feel like recognizing the routes. They were heading to the City End cliff. The same ce where everything changed a month ago.
"Why are we going there?" She asked, once again turning back to look at the man. Her brows furrowed in tension.
Feng Shufen caught her expression like that as he turned to stare at her back. "You don''t have to be scared. I will be with you."
"I am not scared, Mr. Beelzebub. It''s just that that ce doesn''t hold any good memories. So, I am asking why are we going there?"
She spoke, almost getting on the edge. And understanding from where her annoyance wasing, Feng Shufen reached to hold her hands. "It''s okay. Rx. We aren''t going there for nothing. You will know once we get there. Sit back and rx until then."
He said, and Li Xue didn''t know how but he managed to rx her down. While her tense nerves eased, she simply gazed at the man, thinking how easy it was for him to bring her back. Maybe it was something in his touch that warmed her with assurance inside.
Soon, her entire self was at ease. While she rxed, the car slowly drove up the slope of the cliff, very sooning to halt at the top. Li Xue stared out the windscreen and everything from the past came to haunt her in one go. Her fear of not being able to protect WeiWei, the craziness in the eyes of Zhang Xiaotong, the stab in her stomach and the pain of not being able to make it out of the ce at the right time - everything came as a nightmare.
As if sensing her condition, before she could break, Feng Shufen reached out to calm her down. Moving his fingers gently through her hair, he said, "I am here."<novelnext> </novelnext>
At his voice, Li Xue turned to look at him and a small curl lifted up his thin lips just to make herfortable. "Right beside you. I am here with you." He added and looking at him, Li Xue nodded.
Taking a deep breath in, she once again turned out and at a distance, spotted Gao Fan standing with a few men. "There are more people here. It won''t look good if I make them wait for long. Let''s go out." She said, giving a small polite smile to the man sitting beside her.
Feng Shufen noted her calmness and nodded to her. "Allow me." He said and then swiftly turned to step out of the car before walking to the other side. Opening the door for Li Xue, he kept a careful hand up on the edge line of the door so that whileing out, she would not get hurt by any chance.
Li Xue smiled at his soft gestures and then, holding his hands, she stepped out. "You don''t need to be over careful now. The baby is still too small. My care and concern would be more than enough for him for now. You will be needed in theter days." She teased and the man pretended as if he had not heard her.
But after a while, he rified, "I was concerned for my wife. And to get concerned for her, I don''t need to depend on time. I can always do it; at whatever time it is needed." He said and Li Xue gave him a look. But then not saying anything anymore, she shook her head and walked with him.
After just walking a few steps, Gao Fan came, strolling in an elegant manner. "President Feng! Madam!" He greeted with a polite bow of head which Li Xue epted with a smile.
After that the secretary turned to look back at Feng Shufen to report, "President Feng, we have brought them here as you have asked. They were yelling and screaming but since too many voices would have made Madam ufortable and the ce noise, we stuffed clothes in their mouths to keep them shut."
Feng Shufen didn''t speak much but nodded, showing no rejection towards the forme applied. But Li Xue was all perplexed. She looked at Feng Shufen before darting her eyes at Gao Fan. "We have people here? Who are they?"
Gao Fan didn''t speak as if he was not allowed to. He simply turned to look at Feng Shufen, waiting for his orders. Li Xue noticed his gaze and understood hisplication. So, turning to Feng Shufen, she repeated, "We have people here, Mr. Beelzebub? If yes, then who are they?"
Feng Shufen nonchntly looked at her and spoke in a manner of ease. "A few necessary guests." He said and Li Xue couldn''t understand. Her brows furrowed in confusion while her gaze waved to turn and look in a certain direction from where Gao Fan had previously walked from.
"Guests! Do you want me to believe that? Who brings the guests over the cliff and then stuff their mouth with clothes?" She asked, trying her best to get an idea of it but no matter how she tried, nothing came to her vision.
