Chapter 123 - My Xena!!



Chapter 123 - My Xena!!

Mia has tried her best to give Li Xue a brief detail of the challenges that were waiting for her on the way but they were still unknown to the depths of it. Nodding to her words, Li Xue gave a smile of understanding and then gestured to her to walk inside.

They were about to take a step ahead when suddenly a sound of whooshing speed came from behind; making the two women all alarmed at the scene. "This …", Mia said, with an expression of dreamy shock on her face as she turned to look in the direction from where the sound came into the picture.

Li Xue was also taken aback when turned around. Her eyes went wide, trying to assume the consequences that were wheeling in her direction along with a man. "Step aside!" the man called out, snapping the woman out from her assuming thoughts.

But before Li Xue could even think of a safe direction to move in, it was already late. Her eyes got tightened shut, waiting to get hit on the ground harshly. She was ready to brace the pain but that hit never came. Instead, a strong pair of arms got wrapped around her waist making her spin a little up from the ground.

When she felt her foot leaving the ground, her eyes opened at the eccentricity of the situation; her amber eyes getting locked with the man's deep brown ones which had a hue of playfulness and also maturity inside it.

"Hey, Beautiful! Are you fine?" he asked, getting all soft with his voice. His hands still wrapped around her, and the woman still in his arms up in the air.

"Will you please allow me back on the floor. Anyone can never be fine hanging up in the air", Li Xue said, getting back to the tough side she was known for. Her amber eyes did not show any hints of interest to his charms.

"Aye … I have never met any woman who ever complained about being in my arms. Seems like I met an exception today. A pulchritudinous exception!" he said with an amorous wink and then steadying himself slowly, putting her back on the ground but not releasing her from his comfortable hold.

"Save it!" she said as she jerked off his arms and pushed him away. "It will be better to try your tricks and energy on someone whom you could impress using those. This is not your playground to use these wheels here", she added.

"Awww so sweet. You are really cute with those words but these are not called wheels darling. They are called hover-boards skates. If you want, I can teach you how to ride them" He said, lifting up the board under his arms.

"No thanks! I am all fine with my legs, the way they are. I don't need wheels attached to them", she said with a sarcastic smile on her lips and then turned back to look at the young girl, who has fixed her eyes dreamily at the man. It made Li Xue almost roll her eyes. Young girls really cannot control themselves getting infatuated with these flirty looks of men.

"Mia, are you planning to stand here and waste your time? Let's go, we don't have the whole day. I need to go and find the executive manager and report my joining first", she said and without waiting made her way inside.

Though Mia does not want to leave the temptation yet, she still decided to follow Li Xue inside. Turning to take one last look of the handsome man, she waved her hand at him earning a wink in return.

"Mia!" Li Xue called in a real frustrated tone, making the girl hurry her steps inside. "Yes, yes I am on my way", she assured and ran inside.

The man behind gave a smirk when he saw them leaving. "Wow! Working here will be interesting now. So finally learning these culinary skills has got some good uses for me" He muttered and then pulling out his phone dialled a number.

"Yeah, it's me. Check and tell me under which dessert chef have I been appointed here?" He asked the moment the call got connected.

"You have been assigned to the most favourable dessert chef of Sweet Delicacy. Ning Meiling!" the person from the other side of the line informed.

"Favorable chef?" He scoffed and continued, "I don't know any Ning Meiling. Get me under the chef who has also joined today. I am sure she is already a professional and quite experienced in this field by the way she carries herself. But even if she isn't then put us in the same team. I want to be stuck together with her"

"But young master, I doubt that it will be possible. The rules of Feng …" the person on the other side tried to continue but was harshly interjected, "Who am I? Do you think I can't afford it?"

"But Young Master, your mother …", the person on the other end again tried but was again cut short in between. "Don't worry about her! She will be happy as long as I am happy. You know mothers are always like that. Do as I have said and do it fast" he ordered in a serious tone and disconnected the call without giving any attention to the words the other person was trying to say.

Tucking his phone back inside, he also made his way to the direction Li Xue has left. "The show of my monotonous life has got some interest back.?Xena, I am going to stick with you; whether you like it or not." [*Xena: It's a warrior princess in the American fantasy television series, filmed on location in New Zealand]

On the other side, Li Xue knocked at the Executive Chief's office asking his permission to enter. When she got the permission, she gracefully pushed the door open and walked inside with confidence; while Mia waited for her outside.

"Good morning, Chief!" she greeted politely and then added, "I am Li Xue, appointed as a new Head Dessert Chef at your branch. Please take care of me"
