13 I Won't Comply With Your Conditions.

Deming was already too close to Lifen. Sensing their close proximity, she instantly pushed him aside and stood up with the speed of lightening. "You pervert...What are you trying to do? Have you lost all your senses?",Lifen said in her one breath.

He again started to take steps towards her. "What am I trying to do? Don't you know it?",he said with a devilish smile and stood right in front of her.

"...", is he really that shameless.

"I am just asking you to accompany me in having pastries which I have ordered and you have delivered. It's you , who is making fuss out of such a small thing", he chuckled.

"Why would I accompany you? I am just here to deliver it. I am not bound to have it with you, so cut off all your absurd conditions. Please accept the delivery and pay me the cash", she said with a stiff tone.

"Oh I see...I think you haven't got the instructions I have asked for...",he reached out his hand to brush off her long, loose stray strands of her hair which was coming over her face but before he could touch it, she tugged it away herself.

He smiled and continued, "Its okay, since you haven't been informed before. Let me do the honour. I will tell you on their behalf, I have strictly asked them to send their best delivery partner who have achieved 5-star customer ratings in most of their deliveries and then ask them to attend me till I finish tasting the pastries. Then only I will pay the cash for it and even would sign a contract of 6 months for supplying pasteries in one of my restaurant".

He was sounding very much confident , still Lifen was not able to believe it, "That's a complete absurd thing. How am I not informed about it?".

On that, Deming twisted his lower lip over upper lip in inverted U-shape and said, "How would I know that?".

She rolled her eyes and took out cellphone. She was praying to her stars that whatever this pervert beast is saying would turn out to be false. She hurriedly dialed her mother's number, soon it was ringing but no one picked up the call.

She removed the phone from her ears and said, "Sorry, since I haven't got any such instructions I won't comply to it".

But as she completed her words, her phone rang. The screen displayed a picture of a cute bubbly Lifen with her Mother, it was one of her old school time pic and the name displayed 'Mumma'.

"I think , there is yet time to comply with my conditions Little Cat", Deming chuckled. Lifen nervously took the call and burst all the words in one breath, " Mumma , what are you trying to do with me? Am I really your own girl? I really doubt that now. I am not going to do any of your work for the next time".

Mother Wu was confused with her tone," You punk! What are you blabbering? And why so loud on phone? Is that what I have taught you in all these years?". Their way of greeting each other on phone made Deming laugh aloud.

Lifen widened her eyes on Deming and he instantly stopped laughing. "Where are you? Who is laughing behind you giving out a background music?", Mother Wu was asking when suddenly something striked in her head. "Have you done delivering the pastries?".

"That's the thing, I am asking you Mumma. What absurd conditions have you agreed on?", she said in a repulsive tone.

"This time it's not me child, it's your father. And what's wrong with that? It's just like taking a feedback from Mr.Wang . Why making fuss out of it? Just crack that deal so that we can profit. I have faith on you", Mother Wu said in a sharp tone. Her words of encouragement didn't worked even an ounce.

Lifen felt wronged, " Mumma! how can you...". But before she could urge any further she heard the disconnection tone at the end of the call.
