Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 535 - You are a mean betrayer, Xena.

After meeting Director Huo at Sweet Delicacy, Li Xue was making her way out when suddenly she heard a sullen voice from behind.

"You really a betrayer, Xena. I never expected this from you"

At once guessing, who could that voice belong to, Li Xue rolled her eyes. An expectant smile getting on her lips, as if all this time, she has already seen this accusation coming her way. Her steps paused as she leisurely turned around to coax the other kid, she had in her life. She never took him any different from her WeiWei, given his childish antics.

"You really lack manners, boy. Is this the way to greet your Aunt?" she said, raising her brows at him while a pretty charming smile played over her lips.

For a moment, Chen Yujian was almost bedazzled with that epitomic curl of beauty. Was that what people call wearing your smile as the best accessory? But right when he was about to trance off in some other world, the cold, icy face of his Uncle flashed in front of his eyes and he quickly shrugged all of his thoughts at once.

Shaking his head, he shook off the remainder of his ideas, as he stomped his foot towards the lady and said, "You are a mean betrayer, Xena. Don't dodge the accusation, just including the title of being my Aunt. I will still accuse you even if you threaten me using the name of my Uncle. I am not the one to back down, especially knowing that I am at the right stand". He said, complaining like a little kid.

"Are you sure? Should I confirm it by calling your Uncle?" Li Xue stared at him, giving an open challenge up for him to enjoy. She knew his weakness too well to know that the boy would never take the chance on the name of his Uncle, even after getting boosted heavily with the whole world's strength.

Chen Yujian was instantly tongue tied.

The woman shook her head, giving an all – known smile and asked, "Okay, let's not involve your Uncle in all this. Come to me directly. Tell me, how did I betray you?" She questioned folding her arms over her c.h.e.s.t and then getting all serious to solve his grievances.

Seeing her that way, the young boy opened his mouth to speak but then closed it, feeling the lack of words in his book of reasons and thoughts. Why was this woman so direct to him? Can't she be a little evasive in manner? If she had been that way, then he did not have to be so cautious of his gestures around her. With her attitude right now, she only looked more and more like his Uncle, who has always been very precise and curt in his ways.

No doubt, she matched his Uncle so well. How could she not? They were already so alike.

"What? Did you forget your reasons behind the accusation?" Li Xue asked again, sighing disappointment.

"Who said I don't have reasons? Of course, I have it" Chen Yujian retorted back. Of course, he was having the reason but he was not understanding how he should present it. How could he ask the woman to be a little merciful and not leave him here behind, all alone?

The woman raised her brows at his hyped tone, as she waited for him to complete his words.

"You … you said that you will be my supervisor and will train me all well under your guidance. I depended on your words and now you are just leaving us and walking off. If not betrayer then what should I call you? Do you not have any sense of responsibility?" He reasoned out his accusations finally, thinking all well of his words. It was really tough to bring out the reasons by stumbling on his own words and thoughts. He was impressed at his own brain

And Li Xue could also see that. How satisfied he looked with his words. Her head gave a nod as she, herself, contemplated his words. Thinking well, she could not disagree.

She did give her words to guide him well under her guidance, until and unless he followed his code of discipline and she could not complain anything about his attitude at work. The boy has really been well in his obedience and works around her.

So, whatever he was saying didn't seem wrong to her ears. But then again, she was also not at the fault. She never knew that she would be suddenly returning to achieve her dream back. Sigh, her life has become so unpredictable, that she could no longer be sure of the things coming next.

Li Xue slightly strained her head up to look at the boy. Though young, the boy was near or less to the height of Mr Beelzebub. Not to question, he was a Feng and might have taken this trait after his maternal bloodline, after all, she has seen Dr Chen often on the news to know that the young boy has not taken after him rather his mother.

"Fine, I agree that I am to be accused to some little extent, but it's not like I have abandoned you in some jungle where you would not get any way back. You will still be getting trained and guided under Sweet Delicacy and might get appointed under Chef Ning. Not to forget, she is not someone simple. She has been given the title of star chef under the banner. Don't worry you will be handled well under her guidance. Just follow her just you used to follow me and that will be all for you to do".

Li Xue tried her words out to coax the boy's aggrieved nerves down but she had never expected it to come any simple. Though all this time the boy has been very obedient to her orders, she has never forgotten his stubbornness. She was already expecting him to bring up something else. But what she didn't expect was another soft voice from behind.

"Li Xue, you are also doing unfair to me. I followed you here and yet you are leaving me here alone". Mia called out from a distance. She came all the way running, huffing and puffing, thinking that if she didn't hurry then she might miss Li Xue.

"Mia!" Li Xue said with a smile as she added, "Why are you rushing so hard? Take some breath and walk slowly. Not like, I am running away".

The young girl pouted as she walked her way to her and said with light pants, "You are already leaving us like this. Do you think we want to let you go?"

Seeing the girl upset, Li Xue felt the guilt. She was about to add something when suddenly heard the piercing mocking chuckle from a distance.

"Want to let her go or not? Do you even think that even matters? Your Head Chef Li has got her materialistic plans to work on. There is no way she would think for you two. It was your fault to choose and depend upon the wrong horse".

Li Xue doesn't have to force herself to remember that voice. The moment she heard the mocking chuckle, she understood who was it. Her lips curled to give an elegant smile, much opposite to the mock, as she turned sideways to greet.

"Chef Ning!"
