Ryan really felt insulted. Smiling awkwardly, she said, "Huh it seems Li Xue really has high skills. There is no way my words matter anymore. Congratulations!" She moved forwards and hugged her. The people around thought this as her kindness but both the women knew that there was nothing real in it.
Li Xue can see through her actions but decided to keep it within herself as this might be their last meeting. 'Not like you are going to meet her. Keep calm and let this happen only for today. Her pretense won't come back to your life' she reminded herself as she also wrapped her arms to reciprocate her hug.
"We should keep in touch from now on since we have already agreed to be friends", Ryan said as she turned her gaze towards the man whose eyes were fixed only at one woman. It felt like in comparison to that particular woman no one's existence mattered to him. That realization hit her really hard. She has always fantasized those expressions for herself but not it was offered to someone else in front of her face.
She turned to look at the woman. An urge to ruin her for her own happiness surfaced her heart. But she can't be an impatient one here. Impatience will only further ruin things for her. To not placate the man anymore, she has worn a veil of friendship. Bringing a smile on her face, she said "are you understanding my words Li Xue, we need to know each other more. Only then you can get to know this man better. I have been an important part of his charming times in Europe".
When she heard those words, Li Xue's brows got lifted up in amazement. The choice of words was just great. She was confused that, was this woman using such words purposely to ruin their sham relationship? Because if it was the intention then those words might have really worked if used in front of any real couple. She wanted to appreciate her skills for being so exact in ways.
Thinking of that Li Xue decided to put some of her efforts too. Since this was the role play where she was playing the part of Mr. Beelzebub's girlfriend, then a little bit of her contribution is required as well. That would be her gift and appreciation to Ms. Kim as it will bring her the satisfaction of achievement.
Deciding it that way, she brought an expression of a little annoyance and displeasure on her face as she turned to look at the man who was looking at her already for quite some time. Her expressions were exactly what she wanted to make it like. She looked like an extra possessive girlfriend who has got insecure at some other woman's words.
And as thought by her, soon a wave of genuine happiness was seen on the woman's face as she had desired this for the whole day. Finally, Ryan felt successful.
Feng Shufen, who has now been an expert in catching Li Xue's each and every expression can easily understand which was her reality and which was just a pretense. He smiled internally, looking at her like this. Though he knew that it was just a pretense but he can feel his heart desires that wanted to turn it into reality soon.
He wanted her to genuinely feel the possessiveness for him!
"Ahh! O my God! Li Xue, don't take it the other way. My words were out of friendship, nothing else. You won't be misunderstanding Mr. Feng for this small reason", Ryan, who was thinking herself to be successful in her efforts said it gave her intentional hits to make the matter go worse.
Li Xue gave one last look to the man, then turned to look back at the person whose efforts are really pleasing her. For a moment she really wished that it would be great if this woman gets into the entertainment industry. She can make a legendary fame there.
"Sure Ms. Kim, I would love to know more about him. Seems like many things are still unknown to me", her words were willfully giving the hints of her strife towards the man.
Ryan was jumping with joy. She felt like she had won the whole battle with just one hit. Her eyes could not contain her happiness.
At this moment, Feng Shufen stood up and looked at the woman who was doing great with her act. In one stride he got beside her and wrapped his hands around her shoulders. "Now I will ask for my leave. It looks like I have got some very urgent matters to clarify. Please don't bother with us and enjoy the beautiful desserts"
He said and tilted his head to look at the woman, "Let's go!"
Li Xue maintained her sharp eyes at him and after some time nodded. She really looked like a spoiled, pampered girlfriend who was now getting ready to throw tantrums.
Ryan felt her plans shattering. She has been very happy thinking now Feng Shufen will understand the real colors of this woman. She knew he was not a man to take on other's tantrums or rudeness. So she was prepared for their breakup any next moment. But when she looked at him easily giving in to the woman's demands, she really felt that she no longer knew this man.
Why were her efforts going all waste again?
Before she could clear her thoughts, the man and the woman were already on their way out.
Outside, Li Xue could not control her laughter. "Haha … Mr. Beel ... I mean President Feng, I am sorry I didn't intend to laugh at your friend but I just could not control my laughter. I am just thinking if instead of me your real girlfriend would be here then?"
Feng Shufen did not show any expression. He was really amazed to look at her smiling so brightly. It was filling his heart with some unknown happiness. "You were already there? You didn't do anything"
"Because I am not your real girlfriend. There is a difference", she said casually as if her words were the most evident thing in this world.
"Then what would have been your reaction if you were my girlfriend for reality?" he asked straightforwardly. He was anticipating this answer from the moment she pulled that trick. He knew what she did before wasn't real but he wanted to know what would have been the changes if their relationship had been the real one.
Li Xue's expression changed instantly. Her eyes held a fierceness as she made her each word clear, both to the man and also to herself. "I won't be there in any case. Love and relationships is something I have long given up. No trust, no heartbreak. So … at the end of the day, that was just a drama we have pulled up for today"
She said, not noticing that expressions on the man's face changing. No one can tell what he was thinking inside but he really looked like he was going out to ruin the whole world.
