Chapter 1 - chapter 1:done deal

"Since your father is dead, someone needs to take care

of this family"

Li Qingxia raised her butterfly wing Like lashes looking at

the person who spoke

"…fang yulan, you expect me to take care of you and

your bastard children, I'd rather not…" Li Qingxia was

straightforward and eloquent, she gracefully stood up

and tucked her silk Like black hair behind her ear

"My father killed himself, because he knew he failed

me, my mother and my Little brother, Junxi, so I accept

his death as a payment for my mother's, I will take care

of the legitimate Li family children, unfortunately all

your children were born out of wedlock, you should

take care of them yourself, you are still in your prime

how old are you again?" Qingxia smirked waiting for an

answer

"You dare not answer, it means you are very old"

qingxia mocked

"Shut up treacherous imp" fang yulan roared

"Come, shut me up, old ugly mistress"

"DESPICABLE" Fang yulan's eyes darted towards Qingxia

she raised her hands to the sky and washed a slap on

Qingxia's face, the whole Living room became quiet

Pak!

Pak!

Pak!

Fang yulan was stunned with both of her hands on her

face

Qingxia slapped her…

"don't ever raise your hand at me old lady, oh and next

time you want to ask me for something…say please"

Qingxia stood firm slightly raising her voice she turned

to her heels and walked out of the Li family mansion the

butler walked her out

"Miss Li, please return home soon" he spoke out after

hesitating

"Uncle wang I'm sorry but I can't bear to return, our

home has been taken over by cockroaches, I only ask

you to protect our belongings and shares for the

company"

"What shall I tell young master Li when he returns from

the United States?" butler wang asked "When junxi returns please inform me uncle wang"

Qingxia smiled as she walked out of the opened door

She got into a black Bentley owned by the Li family and

the driver waited for orders

"Take me to Limsben winery, we'll go to the cemetery

later" Qingxia said softly and the driver looked at her. he

immediately noticed her swollen cheek

"Is Madam alright… your face is swollen shall I go to the

hospital first" he said worriedly starting the car

"Limsben winery now" her cold dark eyes shot arrows

at the nice ass driver

As he drove Li Qingxia looked out the window, staring at

what she might never call home again

Soon enough they arrived at the most popular winery in

town: Limsben

As Qingxia entered Limsben winery, she was enveloped

with the warm scent of ok barres and the soft murmur

of conversation. The rustic charm of the winery was a

stark contrast to her tumultuous emotions and she felt

a sense of calm wash over as she gazed out at the rows

of wooden barrels The reception team came towards Qingxia

"Miss Li it's been a while we thought you quit drinking"

they had a Light laugh Qingxia chuckled Lightly

"I was busy these few months, I only came because

master Li died and I want to have a drink with him"

"Oh, our condolences Miss Li, master Li often

patronized our business, such terrible news we shall pay

our respects soon"

Qingxia stole a glance at one of the reception members

name tags and smiled

"Xia qing, it's the reverse of my name how lovely"

Xia qing was just as surprised "oh my, ha-ha I was

clueless, what luck I have"

The reception filled with laughter cheered Qingxia up

quickly

"I want to buy a brew of wine, cranberry auroraea"

"Perfect choice young Miss but it's not quite

appropriate for visiting the dead as the viniography of an auroraea represents vibrant Life energy and

celebration, serving it as a tribute to the deceased

especially your father Is a stark contrast to the occasion

it's quite …insulting young Miss"

"Xia qing, it's not your place to tell me what I can or

can't do unless you don't like having a job, I can always

rearrange that" Qingxia said as she curled her Lips and

stared arrows at Xia qing

Xia qing immediately landed on her knees

"Please Miss Li I'm sorry, I beg you, pardon me, boss will

fire me, please" Xia qing cried out rubbing both her

hands like hungry fly 'How arrogant' the others thought

and the leader of the team said solemnly "young Miss Li forgive our qingqing, she Misspoke, don't take it against

her please"

"I'm sorry my dear friend I already took offence, I will

speak with older brother Junjie, your qingqing has a big

mouth for her own good, he should pay more attention

to the staff" Qingxia immediately left and the wine was

packaged and given to the driver the aroma of the fruity

bouquet of pineapple, peach and citrus with a hint of

tropical flowers filled his nostrils and his face became

red on the spot,

"What a wine!"

He walked behind his young Madam and opened the

car door and she got in "ma'am, shall we go now" he asked shyly.

Li Qingxia nodded in affirmation.
