Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 136 - One's Confidence Should Be Confident On Its Own Existence.



Seeing the girl becoming all arrogant with her, Li Xue thought to give them some right learning from them. Earlier when Mia told her that the people here might look down on her, she had already prepared herself for it. But her preparations never meant her non-retaliation. It just meant that she was all ready to brace the things coming in her way in her own style.

Her lips curled up into an arc when she saw the confidence of the twins, He Lian and He Ling. Their attitude was not irking her rather encouraging her to let them know one's confidence should be confident on its own existence.

"Really? Can I really not discipline you two?" Li Xue worded feigning a little unconfident personality, making the twin delightful on getting an upper hand.  But before they could get to enjoy its celebration in their heart, the woman spoke up again.

"But why do I feel we are missing a very important segment of rules here", she said, again taking a little pause, making He Lian and He Ling go baffled.

"Didn't the rule state that we all are a team? Since we are a team, shouldn't we work together for the improvement of our brand? And looking at you two, I think you both are in the dire needs of help. And as far as your thoughts are concerned, let me clear this to you. Even if I joined the work today, I am still a Head Chef equal in status and power to Chef Ning. So on the basis of that, I don't think there is anything wrong in providing my co-worker, Chef Ning a helping hand"

Chen Yujian, the young master of Chen household never thought that one day he will be dusting off the kitchen counter in his life but the woman has made him do it like he was born in this world only for this.

He felt unjust when he saw the woman talking so kindly to the two girls but on realizing her guileful side for them, he felt lucky that he didn't mess up with her to such extent. She was already too strict with him and if she starts getting sly and cunning too then he doubts that his mother will never find his son in his actual form.

 "You … you can't do this. Chef Ning won't allow anyone to touch the people under her. We are shielded by her and she is shielded by the person no one can offend '', He Lian said, feeling a cold sweat trickling down her forehead.

"What's happening here?" At this moment a cold and stern voice came from a distance getting everyone's eyes instantly turned towards her. She was dressed in the buttoned Chef coat and black pants. Her coat has a special symbol at the side with a name badge; similar to that of Li Xue.

Saying her to be a simple plain beauty will be a lie. Her looks were gorgeous but it was more like an artificial beauty provided by heavy misleading makeup. Her eyes weren't big doe shaped but with the use of eyeliners, it was made to look like that. Same was with her lips. One look and people can say that she was quite skilled with her makeup hands.

"Chef Ning!"

"Chef Ning!"

The two girls instantly ran towards the woman, getting all aggrieved, like they had seen their saviour come to their rescue. As they ran to Ning Meiling's side, Mia, who has been out to get all schedules for Li Xue also came.

When Mia saw the person standing at the door. She slightly bowed a little and then greeted all politely, "Chef Ning, good morning!" Ning Meiling just shot a mild glance at her and without responding to her gesture looked back towards Li Xue with a fierce accusing gaze as if Li Xue owed more than half of her fortune to her.

Then reverting her gaze back to the twins, she asked, "What happened here?" Looking at this attitude of Li Xue got the answer to her unasked question. 'If the leader will be this way, you could never expect anything better from their followers'.

"Chef Ning, we did not do anything wrong. She was the one to bully us here, saying that you did not teach us well", He Lian complained, the same as a kid would have done that to their teacher. But they forget that Li Xue was not their classmate to do so. Here she was a teacher herself.

Li Xue smiled, lowering her head slightly and folding her arms over her chest, giving an aura of righteousness around her. Her posture at this moment struck Chen Yujian's eyes, making it difficult for him to look some other way. His heart thumped the more he looked at her. 'This woman … What's so attractive in her? What's so special in her that however, I look I just can't take my eyes away from her'

"Did I say something wrong?" Li Xue asked blatantly, without any hesitation.

The twin sister bit their lips when she heard her words, while Ning Meiling's lips got pursed at such direct insult. "You are just a new beginner here and you are accusing me of not doing well in my job? Do you think you have the right to say that?"

"Beginner to this place? Chef Ning is all right with her words. I am a beginner here. But your information seemed to be flawed. I might be a beginner to this place but not a beginner to this profession. I am all the same as you in professional status Chef Ning, then how come I can't have a saying in this?" Li Xue said. Her words came out all unrivalled.

Those words almost made Ning Meiling wordless. Li Xue's words were simple but it easily infuriated the enemy without asking for any extra effort. "You … what made you so confident with your words and thoughts?" she asked, not backing out from the scene yet.

"This answer … I don't think it's necessary for me to tell you. You can ask from your interns yourself. They can make you realize it in a better way. It's not me that has come to them looking for insults for myself rather it was them who wanted to let others question your training ways and methods" Li Xue said as her eyes went to trail towards the twins whose expressions were getting pale every passing moment.

"Chef Ning, believe us. We did not do anything. She is just an evil one here. We have just come here to help Brother Yujian. He was so pitiful under her. You can even ask him if you don't believe us" He Ling said, looking all pale and pathetic in her expressions.

As they said their words, Ning Meiling turned to look at the man who had not said any word from the beginning till the end. Her eyes accused him of being so silent but that accusation was making no change in Chen Yujian's attitude.

When Ning Meiling was looking at him asking to explain things. His eyes were fixed at some other woman as if he was waiting for her permission to word out his words. The level of obedience and submission he was showing towards the woman was simply irking all the three woman's eyes.

"Brother Yujian, won't you come to our aid. We helped you before, now you should help us too. If you help us, then we can even ask Chef Ning to take you under her care. After that you won't have to take her orders like her servant", He Ling urged, running to him and then reaching out his hands to clasps with hers.
