Murphy told him last night some personal information of Lifen, which include her high-school days details. He mentioned him , Lifen was an idol figure to many boys in her high school and got many proposes too. On that list, Li Chang was on top. He has been mentioned to be still after her.
He was the guy about whom many girls dreamt of but his eyes were fixed on Lifen. Deming instantly recalled all the information Murphy had stated to him and soon his eyes showed the sign of gloominess.
"Please give back my phone... That's an urgent call. I have to take that I promise I won't answer any call in front of you again", Lifen said in a hurried tone and then she recalled the last conversation she had with Chang where she had promised him that if he gave up on loving her , she will consider him as her best friend.
"With your eagerness, it seems to be an important call little cat. Then let's answer this together",saying this Deming received the call and put it on speaker. Then he gripped Lifen with her wrist ,so that she can't snatch away her phone.
With Deming's unexpected act, Lifen furrowed her brows eager to stomp on his foot with all her might. But then voice from the other end of the phone came, "Sweetheart, where are you?".
The way of addressing was enough to get on Deming's nerves. His facial expression changed instantly on hearing this. First cool to gloomy, then gloomy to ferocious. His grip on Lifen's wrist loosen as he doesn't wanted to hurt her in his anger.
Sensing that Lifen instantly grabbed her phone back from him. She could easily observe the changes on his face and it somehow surprised her.
She quickly turned off the speaker of the phone and answered it properly by cornering herself away from Deming.
Deming gazed her from afar trying to get through her but was unable to do so. He knew he didn't love her but he was feeling some kind of undefined attraction towards her. He definitely can't share her with anyone.
After some minutes, Lifen came towards him, while ending the conversation on her phone, "Okay Chang. I will be there after an hour or max to max after 2 hours".
Deming was looking at her and he said out in a loud tone in order to make other side hear it, "I am running out of patience. Are you done with your calls Little Cat? We will be late for our date".
The assertion of Deming left Lifen in a bolt of blue, then she quickly hung up the call and charged him at a high pitch of her tone, "What was that for? Are you really out of your mind? And what's that shit scheduled date?".
"Why being so rude with me, my Little Cat? Do I hold a special position in your heart", he chuckled but his intense eyes was still on Lifen.
Lifen can feel his intensifying gazes on her but she wanted to ignore it, "Sir we should concentrate on our work. Shall we proceed in tasting the pasteries fast? I have some errand to run afterwards ".
He silently stared her for few seconds, and then returned to his usual self, "Okay! let's go". He walked towards the dining table and suddenly stopped to turn and again walked few steps towards Lifen who was just behind him few apart from him. She gulped and hesitantly asked him in a confused tone, "What is it now?".
"The one who was on the call, is he really very close to you? Was he your boyfriend? Do you like him?". There was restlessness in his eyes.
