Chapter 618: Forty million.

Though the crowd was filled with whispers, none was clear to Li Xue's ears. She was sitting on her chair, getting all absorbed on her phone, sending the assurances to Lin Xinyi and Su Fai. Though she didn't see any replies coming, still she deemed their busyness to be expected at the situation, given to the sudden upturn of the things. They might be having many things to deal with at their corner. 

After sending the assurances from her side, for a moment, she also thought to message her gratitude to Mr. Beelzebub. But then decided against it thinking that it would come better if she did in front of him rather than on the call. 

Giving a soft breath out in relief, she turned to look at her lawyer, who seemed another cold personality. Seeing him also the same, she doubted if everyone surrounding Mr. Beelzebub was prone to such coldness or is it that she was overthinking it that way. Not getting the answer to her own curiosity, she slightly pressed her lips to look forward. Her brows getting scrunched a little, seeing the amazed look on the faces at the front. She was about to turn and ask the man about it, but just when she thought to word her curiosity out, she heard a call from the side. 

"Ms. Li Xue, our lawyer, is here. But we still want to ask you, are you sure you want to proceed with compensation procedures? CEO Zheng has already said that we don't need to drag the things like that with you". It was Wu Long who has come forward to explain the things back. 

Li Xue tilted her head slightly to look at him before giving a nod of approval. "Thanks for your concern, CEO Wu. But I am sure. I want to proceed with this procedure; otherwise, in no way I would have come this prepared." She said, passing a considerate smile, from which Wu Long could not make out if the gentleness were genuine or otherwise. 

"Heh. She is talking big, CEO Wu. She doesn't deserve our goodness and sympathy. Since she is so eager to pay the compensation, what's the use of us going on loss. Let her shoot on her own foot, don't bother her." Suddenly CEO Fu said, coming from behind. His expression looked ugly like he was at the brisk of losing all his sanity but was still compelling himself to hold the last strand of his composure. 

Li Xue was satisfied with his expression. "We would see that later, CEO Fu. I would also thank you for your concern". She said, tugging her lips slightly up. 

Seeing her this confident, Fu Guang couldn't say more. He was already edgy, and at this moment, he did not want to lose his cool. So, instead of saying anything, he fisted his fingers and walked to take his seat. Even if he lost today, he would be happy to see that he would bring some damage to the woman. After all, 8 million was not a manageable amount. 

Though his plan didn't go according to the terms he wanted, at least he would not lose it completely.

"Please take your seat, CEO Wu, so that we could start things fast. Both media and other people are waiting," Li Xue added more, and Wu Long nodded before gesturing his lawyer to take the seat and then following the same suit.

Once at the table, Li Xue gave a look to her Lawyer Liu at her side before again looking back at the people in her opposition. "As I have said this before, I will repeat it once more. I, Li Xue, disagree with taking down the compensation procedures. Since Oriental Spark has initiated it, we would take it until the end, so no strings remain attached." She said, her eyes showing the resoluteness of her attitude. 

At her words, old CEO Fu twisted his expressions. "Even if you say you don't want to keep the strings attached, I doubt that you could ever be thick-skinned enough to ignore the kindness CEO Zheng is still showing to you?"

Li Xue was amused at his choice of words. She has many words to say in retaliation, but to some extent, she was getting bored with this catfight and wanted things to end quickly. So instead of playing with words, she decided to be as curt and exact as possible. "What do you mean, CEO Fu? Please elaborate."

"You didn't get it. My meaning is simple. Do you think five years back, when you were about to reach the peak of your career, your worth was only eight million? Heh. You sure a woman to ignore the basics". Fu Guang said, keeping smug on his face. 

Li Xue stared at him without saying anything. Her smile meaningless, not giving away any of her thoughts. Just when Fu Guang thought that he would succeed in the battle, she asked with the prettiest smile. 

"I really feel honoured to know, CEO Fu remembers what was actually my worth years back. Eight million was definitely not my worth. The contracts that I have at that time would have succeeded me in the ultimate trophy I wanted to achieve. Sigh! But my dreams were left unattained." 

"Anyway. Since I have said that, I don't want anyone's sympathy, neither I want to back out from the compensation. I agree with whatever amount that you people would have calculated. Let me know, and we would proceed with that sum". Li Xue said with an unwavering pertinacity.

Everyone around was stunned by her attitude. Eight million was already seeming a heavy amount for her, yet she was not hesitating in increasing the amount. Was she particularly being arrogant? Or was there something else behind the picture? Interest started piquing, but except waiting to get the answers, they could not do anything else. 

Fu Guang was also struck dumb at her words. But not giving in to her attitude, he quickly snatched away the file that Wu Long has kept in his front. Flipping several pages, he announced. "Since you want it that way, let me tell you the sum total has come something approx. forty million."

Everyone gasped in horror when they heard the digits. But Li Xue remained still with the same smile she has begun with.
