Chapter 664 - Greater gainer of future.
It didn\'t take much time for the afternoon to turn into dusk. Discussion went long and none realized the time passing by. Only once everything ended, they caught the hints of colors of setting sun in the clouds.
"O my Lord, I didn\'t know things would get this late. I almost didn\'t realize the time" Feng Yi Lan said as she followed Li Xue out the fashion store to bid them goodbye.
Li Xue also smiled at the same. "Yes, I also lost track of time. But I must say the time here was quite worth it. The ideas about the season release are great and I am cent percent sure that it will be successful, only if it doesn\'t get affected with my name then."
"Li Xue, do you want me to go and bash everyone out there. You are already getting favorable views in the market. I am sure that with you as the face of our brand, we will be doing double of the profit If you want, I can even bet on that". Feng Yi Lan said.
Li Xue smiled and nodded before turning again to walk to her car, but her steps came to an abrupt halt when realized something she was missing in the middle of the words.
"What happened, darling? Did you forget something?" Feng Yi Lan asked, seeing her suddenly stop in her steps to turn around.
Li Xue just shook her head, without saying anything to her, then turning to her assistant, she said, "Xiao Meng, can you wait for me in the car? I will be there soon".
Xiao Meng was a witty one to understand at once. Nodding, she quickly agreed before leaving the two friends alone to talk. "Okay, Sister Xue, I will be waiting for you in the car then"
"Li Xue, what happened? Is there something?" Feng Yi Lan asked again, feeling all puzzled.
"What did you say before to me?" Li Xue asked, reaching to hold her friend by her hands. Her ambers, having the shine of excitement.
Seeing her like that, Feng Yi Lan doesn\'t understand at first. "What did I say? I mean what are you talking about?"
Li Xue clicked her tongue. "Just now, when we came out from your store, I doubted myself. You said something. Repeat it again".
"Oh that, why are you making me repeat. I have promised you the same every time. No one gets to say anything bad about you. If they do, just let me know and I will personally go to bash them up", Feng Yi Lan said with smugness on her face but seeing her friend roll her eyes, she restrained her expression.
"The next thing that you said after that, Yi Lan. Instead of physical harm I like giving mental tortures. So, I am not encouraging you to go on violent measures, rather want to confirm your next words after that", Li Xue detailed more the part she wanted to hear.
Feng Yi Lan was confused for a moment. Though it had been a few moments before, she was still not remembering the words she had said. Sometimes being too much accustomed to your own words also makes it hard to remember them to repeat. It took some time, but finally, she remembered. "Next, I said that I can also risk a bet if you want. Is that what you are asking for?"
"Bingo! That\'s it" Li Xue clapped her hands once before continuing again. "Do you really want to bet?" She asked and Feng Yi Lan doubtfully looked at her.
"Li Xue, what are you up to?"
"Uhh ohh. There is nothing that will make you go bankrupt, dear. Just tell me, are you ready to make a bet with me?"
The two friends stared at each other for quite some time, one waiting to hear the other\'s yes, while the other trying to read the things better.
But when even after a few minutes, she wasn\'t able to guess the things right, she gave in. "Umm okay, we bet on anything you say since I have given you my word".
Li Xue nodded, giving a smirk that was clearly telling that there was something to come. Seeing her that way, Feng Yi Lan was about to decline her words but before she could say anything, Li Xue grabbed her slipping opportunity and said, "Fine, since you have offered the big deal. Let me not miss it. I will make a bet with you." She said, pausing to give a smile before retrieving Feng Yi Lan\'s phone from her hand, using her fingerprint sensor to unlock it and then starting the phone recorder.
"So, our bet will be like this. If the profit of your spring season collection comes well then you will willingly consider and accept Director Qi Shuai\'s efforts and if …"
"Li Xue, that\'s not fair. Why is he now coming in between here? Weren\'t we betting on the success of your career?" Feng Yi Lan interrupted, her cheeks getting flushed in the shade of red.
"Exactly! We are betting on the success of my career, so, my words will go. Allow me, please", Li Xue defended her stance, before continuing her previous words. "If the profit of your spring collection comes well, then you will go and accept the love of Director Qi on your own. And if it goes the other way then, you will allow Director Qi to pave his way to your heart again. Is it fine that way?".
"Li Xue, why are you mimicking my brother now? On either side, is it not the same result coming in? Whether it comes to profit or the loss, you will be the one winning it. How is that fair tell me," Feng Yi Lan said in a tone where it almost felt like she would cry out the next moment.
But Li Xue knew much better. Smiling at her attitude, she asked all innocently, cupping her friend\'s cheeks on one side, "Will you be happy if I lose the bet I make? I thought you wanted my success in every field".
Feeling poor, Feng Yi Lan had no other way but to agree to the bet. Shaking her head in denial, she said "How can I see my Li Xue losing? I will choose to lose instead".
Li Xue suppressed a smile. "Don\'t worry, dear. Even if you feel like you are losing now. I am sure in the future, no one will be a greater gainer than you. Now, I will take leave and tomorrow, I will on time. Better not think too much about this now and focus on your spring season collection. Though you will be winning on both sides, I still have to bring you profits instead of loses". She said before leaning in to peck her cheek as goodbye.
