Chapter 538 - The negativity remained subservient.

Ning Meiling will never take the belief in Li Xue\'s culinary adroitness, even if it meant her to stake her last life. How could she bring herself to believe that a newbie chef, who has never been to any culinary art school, let alone has never studied or experienced anything better regarding the field could be better than her? A high qualification holder. There was simply no way for her to accept that.

It was not her flaw, rather an inbuilt human perception present in everyone\'s thoughts. A perception, where they simply couldn\'t bring themselves to accept others better than themselves, after knowing that the one at the front has not strived as much as them.

But could anyone even determine anyone\'s hard work? After all, hard work never had any measure on a scale where one could compare oneself with others.

Ning Meiling\'s hands balled up at her side as she aggravatedly looked at Li Xue\'s confidence in front.

Who and what gave her the courage to stand up with such righteousness when all her morals are wrecked inside? She thought to herself, keeping her sharp piercing eyes at the front.

But that sharpness in her eyes never wavered Li Xue\'s expression. Not even for once. She accepted Ning Meiling\'s every word like praise. Though behind those words there were the wretched thoughts of the woman, even amid those dirt Li Xue easily found the way to pick up the goods. After all, no one could deny, the beauty of lotus only grows in the deep mud.

"How shameful!" Ning Meiling said when even after trying to dominate, she wasn\'t able to intimidate Li Xue under her hardened gaze. The woman was too tough; more than what she had thought.

Li Xue\'s brows quirked up in amus.e.m.e.nt, just to tease more nerves of the woman. And as she had thought, it happened. Just a slight change in her expression was enough to bring the star chef to the edge. "What shameful thing have I done, Chef Ning?" she asked, giving a teasing blow with a nonchalant smile over her lips.

"You even have the audacity to ask that? What gave you such an audacity to stand in front of me like this, being all righteous in your stance, Chef Li? Even after accepting all my words and accusations, don\'t you feel this confidence, courage and mask of morality doesn\'t suit you?" Ning Meiling burst out in anger as her lips trembled and eyes got red at impulse.

But to all her actions, Li Xue gave out just one sober reaction. She looked at her and just smiled.

"Why would I feel anything such, Chef Ning. Yes, I accepted your words of having charms. Accepted your compliment of having the skills to wrap any man around my fingers. But even so, I have them, what is so wrong with it? Aren\'t those the skills that not every woman craves to have? If I have got them, shouldn\'t I use them better? And why are you thinking yourself to be any different from me?"

Ning Meiling instantly felt insulted by her words. "I could never be like you. I come from a good blessed family with a high upbringing. I am definitely not someone like you, who has gotten downcast by their own family" the woman retaliated back, purposely mentioning the latter part of her words to show her superiority. She has heard Wen Sying mention all the weak nerves of the woman, especially her past and family.

Li Xue gave a sour smile, knowing all well about the trick the woman was using at her. To say, she wasn\'t affected by the latter part of her sentence would become a blatant lie. Though she no longer treats her past known family as her own, it still stung her heart to remember how merciless they have been to her. Even if they believe that scandal to be right, being their daughter, she never deserved such harsh treatment from them.

She treated that painful year of her life as the bygones. Even forgotten all her losses, thinking that maybe the things she lost were the ones she was fated not to own or have by her side. But just by bringing positiveness from every side doesn\'t push away the negativity from us. The negativity still remains somewhere being all subservient. And every time something like that gets brought to the surface, it puts her heart at sour.

Her lips curled up to sneer as her eyes looked slightly on the ground before saying, "How can you be any different Chef Ning? Even if you got a better high-class and sophisticated upbringing from your family, that superior fostering of your parents doesn\'t hold you back from stooping low to weave fake stories with our President Feng. You are also trying to use the charms on him"

She paused in her word with some thought as she pulled her eyes back up to look at the woman and then continued, "Ahh that\'s the other thing that your charms weren\'t capable enough to take President Feng\'s attention. Or else, are you any different? I don\'t think so" She added with a slight playful curve of smirk over her lips.

A light of hostility crossed in Ning Meiling\'s eyes as she bit her lower lips in aggravation. She shook her head profusely in extreme denial as she charged forward with the hands raised at the moment. But just when she thought, she could give a slap to the woman, it was half held in the air. By no one other but Li Xue herself.

Her ambers became sharp as she looked at the woman with blazing flames. The moment paused just there for Ning Meiling as her gaze got locked with a fierce one. Under that tough gaze of the woman, she almost felt herself burning alive. Her skill crawled and her spine went stiff, while her hands felt sweaty. Even all her words got stuck deep in her throat, unable to gather any strength to speak out loud.

In all this time, while getting acquainted and absorbed with the woman\'s playful attitude, she never thought that she could even be capable of such intimidation. Though she has seen her getting fierce once back and it has left a deep impression on her, seeing her right now seemed all different from before. Just a look into her blazing eyes was enough to make one\'s heart drop its beating and lead him towards death.

How could a woman like her be capable of such fierceness?

"Ahh ..." She winced in pain when suddenly felt a sharp bone-cracking sting on her wrist. Her eyes darted from Li Xue to look at her wrist and then helplessly back at Li Xue, only to find her smiling sadistically. She was sure along with the pain, the mark is also going to remain for days. "C – chef Li, you are overdoing it? My wrist is in pain".

"Oh, is it, Chef Ning? That was my plan from the very moment I grabbed it, inflicting pain to the very hand that got the thoughts to get raised on me" Li Xue said, continuing her sadistic smile before adding, "Why? Didn\'t your comrade, Wen Sying, inform you about it, same as she let you know other things about me?"
