Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

540 Can't see Director Qi's efforts going waste.

"Umm here is your favourite café mocha. Anything else, Your Highness!" Li Xue said all sweetly as she extended the mug of coffee to her friend.

Feng Yi Lan's eyes shone at once, taking the cup in her hands. "Yay! That's an advantage of having a super chef friend in your life. You don't need to wait for any café takeout to taste your favourite drink" She said, taking a small sip from the cup. "Yum! Li Xue that's much better than the usual one that I order online every day. You are truly awesome you know."

She chirped more, closing her eyes to savour the soft chocolate flavour from her drink. Looking at her like that, Li Xue could only shake her head and get to take her seat beside her on the sofa. Her friends and her antics! They would simply never change.

"Yi Lan, I heard Sister Margaret saying that there had been a chef for you. Why did you make her leave?" She asked, looking around the place. No doubt the house was well decorated with interiors and was maintaining a code of cleanliness, which she knew her friend was simply not capable of keeping. Though she could not see anyone in front of her eyes, she could see all well that in maintaining the shine of the place, more than two hands were involved.

"Mhmm – Hmm! Yes, there was a cook that my father sent for me but she was no good at her skills. So, I made her leave. She was not as awesome as you, girl. If she had been, do you think I would have made her leave? You know how crazy foodie I am!" Feng Yi Lan said, clicking her tongue in denial and again bringing her concentration back to her coffee.

Li Xue could only purse her lips at her words. Did she say that the cooking skills of the cook were not good? If someone was chosen to cook for a Feng, wouldn't that person be a highly qualified chef? Was her friend calling her to be better than all those supremely qualified ones?

She shook off such impossible thoughts before asking, "Yi Lan, with those praises are you asking me to become your personal cook?" She asked, keeping her face all straight and serious.

At her words, the woman at once choked on her coffee. Her face turning to a shade redder with the stressful coughs. "Hey, at least think twice before saying something this reckless to me. Do you think I am capable of something like that? Or did you forget that the Devil has taken you as his one and only treasured wife? Anyone, who doesn't have the fear or love for their life would only think of that. And please, let me remind you I am not into desperate death".

Feng Yi Lan said as she tried to sober herself from the coughing. Li Xue pursed her lips. She has never taken the man into such consideration but if taken into, will he be so harsh, even if that's for her own sister? She pondered for some time but then nodded thinking of the possessive limits of the man.

Of course, she was just saying her words for saying. Not like Yi Lan would ask her to become her personal chef, and neither she has time to become one for anyone. She already has two careers in hand to work on.

"But on a serious note, Yi Lan, I will still say. You should not always order food online. The takeouts are not healthy and you work hard on your boutique every day. If you don't pay attention to your food habits then you might fall sick" Li Xue advised.

And Feng Yi Lan shook her head in denial. "Who is ordering takeout online. I am regularly having home-cooked food", She said, making her friend raise her brows at her.

"Ahh haha … that's nothing Xue, I was just bluffing. Haha …" Feng Yi Lan defended herself when realized what secret she had let out to her friend. A sheepish regretful smile curling her lips into an awkwardness.

Li Xue stared at her. Her eyes, contemplating all her friend's expressions before saying, "I never knew Director Qi has got good cooking skills. Seems like I need not worry too much for your eating habits in future. You have gotten someone to take care of that".

Yi Lan sighed. How could she even think that she could bluff her best friend who has always known all of her, like the back of her hand?

Since the beans have already been spilled, there seems no use in holding back now. So, with the twitch of lips, she simply said, "Who got good cooking skills? He is no better. Hmph!"

"But I did hear someone saying that she kicked a cook out because she was not able to like her cooked meals", Li Xue teased, rubbing her chin while looking at her friend from the corner of her eyes.

"Yes, I said that but what could I do when someone deliberately sent food again and again to your doorstep persistently," Feng Yi Lan said with ease, shrugging her shoulders back. "I cannot be rude to someone's efforts and put it in the waste bin".

Li Xue nodded with understanding as she agreed. "Yes, yes, my Feng Yi Lan could not see Director Qi's hard efforts going to waste. I can understand".

Feng Yi Lan bobbed her head, without noting her friend's words properly, but when saw Li Xue giggling out at her agreement, she understood what word trick her friend had played on her. "You … Li Xue, you are getting in the bad influence of my brother. How could you trick me like that?" She said, throwing a cushion at her, disgruntling childishly.

Li Xue was swift enough to dodge the attack. Taking another pillow from the side, she attacked the same way. "And how do you dare to bluff me off with a lie? Why have I yet to hear your story with Director Qi? Huh?"

"I am not at fault. You were busy in my brother's cold and demonic charms"

"Yes, yes, I was busy and you were not wrong to detail me the story on your own".

They keep on attacking each other one after the other until the whole room becomes a feather mess and the air filled with cries of laughter.

On the other side. In Feng Internationals,

Gao Fan knocked at the President's office before getting permission to enter the room.

"President Feng, old Han will be back to Chiboa by late-night tomorrow".

Soon the room was filling with laughter
