Chapter 49 MORE THAN ENOUGH PART 5
"...Eh?" Su Fengfei didn’t understand her question. He thought that she would be happy and bashful.
She replied with the question, "Couldn’t you come up with a better idea?" She had an uninterested look on her face.
Su Fengfei tried to say, "B-but I think-"
Xue Lin sighed. "What you think is only you think. There is no evidence."
Su Fengfei said with a serious expression, "There is."
Xue Lin frowned. "What evidence? I’m not a beauty, I’m not a family growing type, I’m not into romance..."
’I feel really bad for my grandson.’ Su Fengfei thought. He couldn’t imagine that after all this time his grandson fell in love but the girl had no interest in him. "But you have a charm that other people don’t have."
She asked, "And what’s that?"
He answered, "Smacking people with words."
Xue Lin paused and then agreed with him. "... You are right. I do have that charm." Her eyes sparkled for a moment.
"..." Su Fengfei didn’t think that she would agree so quickly. Talk about being shameless. "Isn’t this called being shameless?"
Xue Lin lectured him, "When you know your good quality, you should feel happy about it. Many people might not appreciate you because they are just jealous. But if you praise yourself, you will have more confidence in yourself. Isn’t that good?"
"..." Su Fengfei had nothing to say after that. "I guess you are right."
"Are you feeling better now?" She asked all of a sudden.
He didn’t understand her question. He asked back, "Huh? What do you mean?"
Xue Lin stated, "You look calmer than before. You are also smiling a little. Your heart must be feeling lighter. Did it feel good after talking about your problems?"
Su Fengfei looked at his reflection on the pond and saw that he was indeed smiling. He felt that something was lifted from his chest. He was taken aback. "You are right!"
Xue Lin said proudly, "This is the magic of counseling. You should have done it sooner. When something is weighing your mind, it affects you physically too. At that time, you need to share it with others. It’ll help your mind and body. It’ll also help you to think logically."
Su Fengfei blinked. "Were you counseling me?" He didn’t think she was talking to him having that in her mind. After she stepped into this family, she kicked out Ge Guiren and helped him. He started to see her as a blessing.
Xue Lin said, "It’s just a force of habit. Did it bother you?"
Su Fengfei smiled. "Not at all! I have to thank you for your help, lass. From now on I can count on you!"
Xue Lin interrupted. "Stop right there. I haven’t asked for my fee."
He casually asked, "How much?" He had lots of money. He didn’t have to worry about paying her.
Xue Lin coughed and spoke like a true businesswoman, "Since you are my relative, I won’t ask for money."
"Oh really? What do you need then? I’ll give you whatever you want." Su Fengfei didn’t have the time to think about what she could possibly want.
Xue Lin blurted out, "Really? Then give me your chef." Her grey eyes were looking at him with lots of expectations. Her eyes were sparkling like a kid asking for a new toy. It was hard not to say ’yes’.
Su Fengfei stammered, "C-chef!"
Xue Lin nodded like a child. "Yes, I like his cooking. I want to take him to B City. In exchange, the chef from B City can work for you." Her expression was saying, "Look, aren’t I generous. I’m exchanging the chef with you. You have nothing to lose."
"..." Su Fengfei never thought that he would lose his top chef just like that. His heart was bleeding. Who will make this bleeding stop?
"So? What do you think? You said that you would give me anything I want." Xue Lin pressed him.
"Alright, you can have him." Su Fengfei sighed. His heart was devastated. He hired this chef after her daughter was born. He really likes this chef’s cooking.
"That’s more like it." Xue Lin smiled in satisfaction.
Anyone would think that she was planning this all along. But it wasn’t true at all. She just got an opportunity and she took it. Why would she miss a chance like that? There was no hidden meaning behind helping that old man.
Xue Lin is the kindest, prettiest, and most soft-heartened girl in the world. She can never plot against someone. She just likes the chef’s skill. That’s all.
"What are you two talking about?" A calm voice asked.
Both Xue Lin and Su Fengfei turned around to see the person. She replied, "We are talking about my counseling skill. Grandpa wants to become my patient. I accepted his offer."
"!!!" Su Fengfei could swear that he never said anything like that. He said that he could ask for her help. It was nothing official. He couldn’t imagine what else she could ask from him later. He was already scared.
