Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 576 - Start Of Li Xue's Downfall.



"Girl, what are you planning with all this stuff?" Feng Yi Lan said as she stared at Li Xue moving the scissors and needles efficiently in perfect simultaneous nature. "You know looking at you like this is making me feel like you are gearing for fashion designing now, leaving your modelling and chef career aside".

She said and Li Xue at the front could only press her lips on her exaggeration. "Yi Lan, do I look that brilliant to you? I am not you, a geek of fashion designing. Being a fashion designer yourself, don't you know how tough your job already is? I am just stitching some necessary pockets on these jackets and pants, and that's nothing in compared to the tough art designs you guys make on the dresses". She said, shaking her head. Yi Lan has always loved to prove Li Xue to be the best of all.

"What's there tough for you, darling? Just see yourself and you will know. You just need to think of the things and you can do everything. You are not like some typical models who know nothing better but to show off their beauty and do catwalks on the stage. You are more versatile." Feng Yi Lan continued. This time in a more firm tone but then suddenly paused, when saw her friend turning around, folding her arms over her chest.

"What did I say wrong? Are they any better? And half of them even don't know about modelling. Just because they get some silly inspiration to join the stream, they are there to become the fish to fill the pond, without even checking if they are suitable for that water" She added more in a tone of usualness that was simply not leaving any loophole for Li Xue to chide her.

"Yi Lan, you are still talking about our professions. Can you be a little decent and respectful?" In the end, Li Xue could only brush off those talks in a simple way. After all, Yi Lan was not totally wrong about the current models in the industry. "Anyways, tell me if you have received the parcel that I have made delivered here?" She asked.

As if she has totally forgotten the important thing, Feng Yi Lan's mouth went agape while she flung her hands up to cover it before saying, "Oops, I am really sorry, Li Xue! I almost forgot. It arrived yesterday itself. But since I was in the hurry to reach somewhere else for Aurora, I handed it to the desk downstairs and left. Wait, I will give them a call and ask them to bring it up here". She said, pacing quickly towards her house intercom tablet.

"Okay, take it easy. Since you have handed them to keep, they will not throw them away". Li Xue joked as she returned back to prepare the dress piece, she was planning to wear tonight.

After some time, Feng Yi Lan returned back with the parcel. Someone has come to deliver it to her doorstep immediately. "Hey, Li Xue! What's so heavy in this? It's making a little metallic sound. Have you ordered some kind of weapons in this box?" She asked, shaking the box to guess more about the things inside.

Li Xue did not respond to her. She just moved the needle for the last time on the jacket to lock the stitches, before cutting the thread off with the scissor. Then turning around, she took the box from her, sending her a smile of devilishness. "Yes, a kind of similar. But how do you know?" She said, raising an amused brow at her friend, making her all confused about her intentions.

"Huh? Li Xue, what do you mean?" Yi Lan asked as she looked at the woman opening the seal of the box. Her eyes went wide when saw her retrieving the sharp set of objects out. Gaping in horror, she shrieked, "O my Lord, what is this, Li Xue? What are you planning with all these sharp knives? Did you join some assassination group when I was not around you? Does my brother even know this? Gosh, I am feeling the chills already seeing them like this"

She said, the more her eyes stared at the showcased silver knives on the table. "You don't have to feel the chills. I have not ordered them to use on you, Yi Lan. And another thing that I wanted to ask you as a favour. Your brother doesn't know all this and I don't want him to know all these all things too. So, you …" Li Xue said, while carefully wiping off the edges of the knives with a soft cloth.

"What? Do you think I have the guts to tell my brother about all this? If I tell him that you have brought all this, he will come after you later but will hang me to death first. There is no way, I would even think to tell him this stuff" Feng Yi Lan said, rubbing the sides of her arms up and down to ease the goosebumps. "But Li Xue, at least tell me, what are all these for? Are you really going on some assassination mission?"

Li Xue's eyes turned sharp suddenly, same as one of the knives in the list. "Mr. Han is finally back in the city. So, what do you think?"

"Wen Sying, are you fine now?" Da – Xia, the manager of Wen Sying asked as she strolled inside the room with a tray of water and some medicines for her. But she did not receive any response for her words because the woman was all busy connecting the call to someone.

"Wen Sying, I have got you the medicines. Have it first. The doctor has …" She started again but was silenced harshly in between her words.

"Shut your mouth! Can't you see I am busy with something?" Wen Sying lashed out, lifting a vase from the side and then throwing it hard at her manager. Da – Xia jumped out in fear.

"But Sying, I …"

"Shut up! You … I can't expect a single help from you. And when I am trying to reach the things myself, you are also not letting me do that. You are …" Wen Sying was about to say more when suddenly her phone beeped with a message.

As if all this time she was waiting for that one message, the moment her phone beeped she frantically went to check it. Once checked the message, a smile of satisfaction reached her lips as she said to her manager, "Now don't look at me like that. Go and prepare a dress for me. We would be going for an appointment in the evening today".

Finally, she has caught the string from where she can start Li Xue's downfall. Mr Han!
