SERVING YOUR ENEMY

"Can you be quiet, already?" Qiangshen asked.

"Hold on, do you know if she has a sister? Maybe she doesn't work. An older or younger one wouldn't be bad." Chu Feng said excitedly.

Qiangshen shut the magazine he was reading close and smiled. "Yes she has," 

Chu Feng's eyes lit up instantly. "Whoa!" He clapped his hand twice. "Tell me... Tell me about her."

Qiangshen then stopped smiling and frowned like he was sad. "There's a problem."

"Hunh? What problem?"

"She's just a five year old baby..." Qiangshen said and cast his lips down. (╯︵╰,)

Chu Feng blinked twice. "Rea... Really? That's really sad..." 

Qiangshen watched him. "Are you really into her? This is the first time you are moved for a woman. Sometimes I thought you were gay..."

"Right? All the women here are ugly beyond comparison. They cake their face with so much make up that you can't even recognize their real face, some even has acne. And then some of them look like the other... After they have gone through the knife. They are not just beautiful enough to move my heart. But Miss Yuxi moved my heart the instant I saw her. Her glossy lips, her fluffy cheeks, her soft hands,"

Qiangshen tilted his head. 

"Her jet black pupils. Do you remember when she smiled? It looked like the gateway to heaven. She's really beautiful beyond my imagination."

"Tsk tsk, you are lost and lost your senses as well. She's not that great." Qiangshen pouted.

"She is! You are just too blind to see it!" Chu Feng retorted.

Qiangshen was taken aback by what he just heard. "Did you just say I'm blind? Hunh? My eyes are the best in the world. I can see you from a very far distance. It's pure white and black."

"Ay, ay. That's okay. No one would agree that their eyes are not fine. Just leave it." Chu Feng sat down and started arranging the files on his table.

Meanwhile Qiangshen wasn't satisfied that he had lost. Lost to that girl. He was considered the most beautiful in the industry even amongst the women. How can any ordinary girl match up to him? Chu Feng is such a bad liar! Qiangshen thought. 

*****

Yuxi wasn't driven straight to the company but instead taken to the Xings clothing brand...

"What are we doing here?" She asked the driver.

"Madam had asked for me to bring you here,"

"Oh,"

The driver came down and opened her side.

Inside, Mrs Xing I was seated on a couch. She had a glass of juice in her hand and would sip it little by little. The sales girls stood at attention, so they would be ready anytime she called on them.

Shiya was also with her, she picked her cup of coffee and was about to sip it when she noticed from the corner of her eyes who was coming. The gentle smile on her face disappeared.

Yuxi with her hands clasped together in front strode straight to the older woman, she bowed with a small smile on her lips.

"Good morning ma'am," Yuxi greeted.

"Yeah, morning. Hope you had a wonderful night..." The woman said in English and the girls gasped.

"That old woman is so intelligent."

"I heard she grew up in England..."

"Oh no wonder... I was so bad in English in my high school... I wish I had paid more attention." 

The girls whispered amongst themselves.

Shiya turned to shoot them a warning look and they immediately straightened their spine.

"Now that you are my Shenshen's girlfriend, you will need a change of wardrobe and some other things. Go ahead and choose whatever you may want."

Shenshen's girlfriend? The word echoed in Shiya's head. How can she be this shameless? She is way older than him... Wait, what is with Grandma? Did she arrange Xueyan for Qiangshen? Did she even look into her info?

"Shiya," the woman interrupted her trail of thoughts. "Assist her with whatever she may want. Make sure to give her the best."

When Shiya heard that she felt her head ache... Serve her enemy? She turned to see Yuxi smiling at her. What is wrong with her? What is with that smile?

Shiya smiled back and stood up. "This way, please."

Yuxi and a few sales girls followed Shiya. 

They stopped at the first rack and Shiya picked an off the shoulder dress. "This is called off the shoulder ruched dress, look it comes in many colour this is one." She used the dress to size Yuxi up. "I think you should go with brown, it looks good and matches perfectly with your skin."

The sales girls directed Yuxi to the mirror. Do I really need all this? 

"Whoa! It matches exactly! You have such a good skin, flawless." One of the salesgirl flattered Yuxi. 

Yuxi smiled, "Thank you."

"No no." The girl said. "You are really beautiful. I'm just stating the fact..."

Hmmm. Shiya cleared her throat to call the salesgirl to attention.

The girl stopped immediately.

"I will take this," Yuxi said flatly.

"And this?" Shiya picked another dress. "It's made with the finest sequin produced by our materials makers... They are really good at what they do. What do you say?"

Yuxi had an awkward smile, "Isn't it too short?"

"No, it's just five inches above your knees. If it's any longer then it wouldn't be this great. We produced it in white first before we made this red. It defines an elegant and fierce lady." 

She is sure good with the talk. I bet no one would be able to say no to her. Yuxi thought.

She's pretending not to have interest meanwhile she wants to have everything here. Xueyan is this greedy... Shiya thought and sneered.

"This is another button down dress, you could wear it on a normal day to work... It looks casual but if you match it up with a nude coloured heel sandals it'd go perfectly." She darted a look at the sales girls and they went to go get the sandals.

They brought it to her feet and made her take a sit. After wearing it for her they told her to go change into the dress and she did.
