"You are so similar to him. Or should I say just exactly like him?" the woman said, breaking a small peal of soft laughter in the air. But it made Li Xue a bit frozen at her place. Did this lady know her from before? She was confused because as far as she had her memory, this woman was nowhere present.

Then who was she? She raised her brows slightly in confusion and was about to ask her to make her words a little clear but before she could, the woman herself added on, "You know well how to make people surrender in front of your flawless reasons. I must say blood really runs thicker. Like father, like daughter!"

Like father, like daughter!

Did this woman know her father? Maybe she did, or else why would she mention him here?

The wrinkle of confusion on her brows soon turned into a frown as she thought more and more about the chances. Her amber eyes turned sharper to look at the woman but the lady remained all cool and nonchalant to it.

The more she looked at Li Xue's brows frowning the more deeper her smile became. Like she was enjoying the show to the fullest.

Li Xue felt her nerve irking seeing the woman's smug attitude. But she knew well to maintain her composure in the worst. Knowing her surroundings better, she diligently maintained her expression and smile as she looked at the woman.

"Ma'am, I hope the dessert stood on your expectations. With the shine of satisfaction that's quite visible in your eyes, I am sure that it did. Please enjoy your serve, we will get back to our work". Her words shot out with an intent to kill the non – visible smirk of the woman's face in an instant.

And it did its job well as she could see the shine of amus.e.m.e.nt halting in those black eyes of hers. To say that Li Xue enjoyed the kill would be wrong. Enjoyment was the last thing she felt at this moment because her annoyance was too dominant to let her feel any other feeling.

Her parents were part of her life that she wanted to forget for the best. But here some woman comes and declares that she was just like her father. Never in her life, she would accept that. Never in her life, she would become someone like her father. A greedy opportunist!

"Mia, come with me. We still have some work left-back in the station" she said as she took her steps away from the scene. The young girl nodded, glancing towards the woman customer one last time before following Li Xue inside.

Ning Meiling at the side was too confused at the climax of the movie. Though the end result was not what she wanted, still the curiosity to know the depths of the new facts unfolded got her the best. "Something interesting is on the way. Seems like the movie is yet to end. Chef Li has a mysterious background. Something worth to know"

Inside, Li Xue went straight to clear her counter desk. Her movements showed the agitation she was feeling inside.

"Oh … Li Xue, what are you doing? You must be already exhausted. I will help you clean all this. You can go off work already. Here, let me do it" Mia said as she came forward to give a helping hand.

"It's okay, Mia. I can do it. You go back and handle your own work", Li Xue said, rejecting her help in an instant. Her tone was all tough and rigid, something like the young girl has never heard from her before. Without any doubt, she could read the anger in her expression. But she did not know what made her go mad suddenly?

Wasn't the dish all fine and perfect?

Not understanding the things quite well, Mia asked, "Li Xue, why are you mad suddenly? I thought we would celebrate this success. But you are looking so bad at this moment. Do you know that woman already? She mentioned that she knew your fath…"

"I don't have parents. Never had any in my life." Li Xue cut her short instantly. Her eyes turned all sharp and fierce at her. For a moment Mia was taken aback. This was definitely the first time seeing her like this.

"I – I am sorry. I did not mean that". Mia apologized in a meek scared voice.

When Li Xue realized her change in tone, she sobered up and added in a rather calm tone, "Mia, I am fine. Just feeling a little exhausted with all this rush. But I am fine."

The young girl looked at her with some suspicion for some moment and then said, "I know that you are exhausted. That's why I said I will help you clean all this while you can go off work. You have already decided to take a half-day before but work increased and you ended up working almost a full day".

Li Xue too sighed realizing it and then nodded, "Fine! Then help me clear this all. I will go back and change". She could never reject the care of the people when they are being so genuine and kind to her.

"Yes then go fast", Mia said with a nod as she happily went to take care of things for Li Xue.

After completing all her work inside, Li Xue made her way out only to find the lady from before standing by the side of her car. Her eyes went to stare at her upright stature for a moment, remembering her words from before.

A part of her brain was compelling her to go and ask her intention behind the words she has said before while the other asking her to avoid her. When she was busy contemplating things the woman turned on her heels to give her smile as she said, "Ohh you are here. I was waiting to see you!"

Li Xue's fair face became stringent as she raised her brows and said, "If for my father, then let me be clear that I don't have one in my life. Stating my nature identical to his is something I would never believe because I am not like him and will never be like him".
