Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1017 - Discord In Royal Family.

Zhang Xiaotong was still in disbelief when she turned to look at Feng Shufen with a gaze that felt like she has heard some big joke for which she wanted to laugh out loud. "Brother FenFen, this must be a joke, right? I mean how could she be … be your wi-wife?"

Wife? She wasn't even looking like a woman, how could her Brother FenFen have a wife like that? She just couldn't believe it. For once, it was even believable that she couldn't be his choice but in no way a woman dressed like this could be his preference.

Feng Shufen's expressions turned frigid. But before he could say anything, Li Xue's slender arms come to hook around his with coquettishness.

"How could I not be his wife, Ms. Zhang? Am I not beautiful?" Li Xue asked, blinking her eyes provokingly at the girl. And she knew seeing her getting so close to the man would only add fuel to the fire burning inside her heart. So, she didn't plan to hold back.

And as she expected, Zhang Xiaotong's fists clenched on her sides as her jaws as well tightened while her eyes didn't leave the arm which Li Xue was hugging. "You … Have you not seen yourself in the mirror before coming here?"

She was so much blatant with her words that Li Xue couldn't prevent her lips from curling. She must say, though the girl was in her age of maturity, she has not yet lost her childishness. Otherwise, as far as she has heard about her, the girl has held quite an influence in the business world.

Although Li Xue has not minded the girl's words, her tone has wrongly pricked Feng Shufen's nerves. "Ms. Zhang, mind your t …" He was about to let her know her place when from the side, Li Xue pinched him to pause.

"You don't have to take it so seriously, sweetheart. Ms. Zhang didn't want to offend me. She might not know that you have heavy taste in both woman and fashion." Li Xue said as pressing a smile on her lips she turned to look back at Zhang Xiaotong, who clearly looked stunned at the icy voice of the man. Maybe she wasn't expecting him like that. "Right, Ms. Zhang?"

Though Zhang Xiaotong didn't want to admit, feeling the cold shoulder of Feng Shufen towards her, she could only agree. "Brother FenFen, I didn't want to offend her. It's just that I was thinking about you. Please don't joke her to be your wife that easily, your relatives might not like it and … I mean you know they care for the profits more. And given her simple background, they won't be able to see any benefits. They might give you hard time for her." She said perfectly molding her intentions.

As long as she could be good in the eyes of Feng Shufen, the relatives could bear the tags of being the villains. After all, it's not like the woman would be able to surpass her family.? Zhang wasn't an easy surname to cross. So sooner or later, she would be the one taking the upper hand as in the end, being the patriarch of the family, Feng Shufen would have to choose the woman who could support him and not some model who doesn't even know the right way to dress.

"Look I don't want to be rude. But some things in the wealthy family run like a traditional ritual." She said, eyeing Li Xue with an intention that was all easy to read.

Li Xue still smiled at her. As if she measured the water before walking deep into it. "Don't worry Ms. Zhang, I understand. I will never let Shufen take a hard time for me. " She said and her such easy tone only twisted Xiaotong's stomach.

Zhang Xiaotong wanted her to feel the fear of losing everything, wanted her to fear her presence; but when saw Li Xue all at ease, she felt herself losing instead. "Aren't you too confident?" She started in a different tone but when felt a cold glare coming her way, she changed, "I mean you might not understand what I mean with background, since you have no one to support in the family. You might not be …"

Before she could complete her words, a sharp voice from behind snapped, "Who said she has no one's support in the family? I never knew our family was having some internal discord that I didn't know?"

It was Shin You Jun who has heard the things from the middle but has picked up the gist well. Completing the merry-go-round ride with the little, he was returning to the couple when he saw disgusted expressions Zhang Xiaotong was giving to Li Xue. Though he knew his sister wasn't looking nice today, still that never meant anyone would come to bully her like that.

"Mama! Daddy Angel! Merry-go-round was fun. WeiWei enjoyed it very much." Little WeiWei who has come holding her uncle's hands at once ran to share her joy with her parents.

Zhang Xiaotong looked and could no longer comprehend the things. She saw the little girl but before she could understand her existence, someone else's words took her attention.

"What? Cat got your tongue? I am just asking you to confirm the things. You know spreading rumors is considered both crime and unethical in Chiboa?" Shin You Jun said, coming to stand beside Li Xue and just in front of Zhang Xiaotong. "So, you better think to clarify the things you said earlier."

"Rumor? What rumor did I spread?" Zhang Xiaotong was confused. It was like there was too much in her book to study but she has yet not realized it. "Crown Prince, I didn't understand what are you talking about?"

Shin You Jun couldn't help but chuckle. "So, you actually know that I am Crown Prince. Great! Then I am sure you would also know that the royals don't encourage rumors regarding our family and palace."

Zhang Xiaotong nodded. "Yes, but …"

"Still, you dared to spread that there is internal discord between our family members? Do you not fear the penalty you might face for that?"
