Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1258 Even if you don't agree ...

While Li Xue and Feng Shufen were still on their way back to Our Paradise, Li Xue heard her phone ring. She checked her phone and her brows got raised at the identity of the caller. Receiving the call, she asked in a really friendly tone which also held the hint of pampering. "Hey! How is everyone doing?" New chapters are published on (f)ir(e).nᴇt

As she started like that, Feng Shufen turned to look her way. Even Gao Fan raised his eyes to check it on the rear mirror. To them the tone of Li Xue wasn't something different, rather it was the accent that made it sound something mysterious.

"Hey, Boss! You still sound the same. All this while only Elise got the chance to talk to you, so we almost felt like we had forgotten your voice. But luckily today, she is out of her physical order, and I secured a chance to call you. And even forgotten before, I remembered all of you now. By the way boss, are you still beautiful as I have remembered from the past?"

Hearing the boy talk so much from the other side of the call, Li Xue couldn't help but pinch the space between her brows. His non-stop talking like this was the only reason why he wasn't selected as the leader of the group. Otherwise, his knowledge has always surpassed others in the Legal Informative Bureau.

"Eric, it seems you have also not changed. You still talk a lot as you used to talk." Li Xue said, and her voice didn't sound disappointed, rather on the inside she was feeling nostalgic.

"Boss, you still remember me? I am crying with my tears out. I thought that you had forgotten us. Especially me" As he said, Li Xue rejected his words instantly.

"There isn't anything like that. I still look for you people, otherwise, how do you think I got back in touch with Elise. Furthermore, your talks have always been the sweetest, how could I dare to forget you? I have remembered you all." She said and her words like that were enough to ease the person on the other side.

And Li Xue could say that because she could already hear the boy giggling while smiling with a bright face. "Boss, I knew it. You won't forget us. Especially me, I am so charming."

Humming softly, Li Xue didn't forget that the boy wouldn't have called him just to talk to her. There might be something more, so she asked, "By the way, you called. Is everything fine with what I have asked you to do?"

"Umm for that only, I have called you, Boss. We have tried to investigate it all. One concern is solved, but the other one seemed mysterious. Elise almost fainted trying to trace it but no matter how we tried, we weren't able to recover the information fully."

Li Xue's expression changed when she heard that. Frowning, she didn't say more. "Okay, I got that. I will call you back after checking it. Relax for the time being. You did your best." She said and hearing the other side hum with some disappointment, she changed the topic to ask, "Anyways, what happened to Elise? I wasn't expecting you to call. It has been always her."

As she had expected, the moment she said that she heard the boy whine on the other side. "Boss, do you really prefer Elise over me. You know I am better than her and also it has been me who worked more on your job. You should like me more." He said and Li Xue gave out a chuckle.

"Eric, you are still the sweetest. Don't overwork yourself, I like you more than others. Now, stay happy and enjoy the rest of the night. Also, if possible, go and check on Elise. She still might not have the habit of cooking meals while sick. So, get her something, okay?" She said and only after hearing the boy assuring her, did she disconnect the call.

When she hung up the call, she felt the gaze of the man from her side. She turned to look at him and asked with a slight tug on her brows. "What happened? Is there something?" But then realizing what could be on his mind, she replied to her question on her own. "Oh, it was a few old friends from the past. It was a long time since I talked with him, so he was just a bit tough to please. I hope my ramblings with him didn't make you curious as there wouldn't be anything meaningful that I could tell you."

She said with a simple smile, but Feng Shufen kept staring at her. After a while, he simply said, "If there is something you are looking for, you can always ask Gao Fan to help. He had some better resources to help you with." He said and only then did Li Xue realize that the car was too silent when she received the call and even though she had kept the volume of the call low, the man was still able to hear it.

Chuckling at her dumbness, she shook her head, "There isn't anything serious, Mr. Beelzebub. If there were a requirement in the future, I would definitely look for Mr. Secretary. At that time, I am sure, Mr. Secretary would help me even if you do not agree to it." She said and then turning to Gao Fan, she asked him to confirm, "Right, Mr. Secretary?"

Gao Fan felt complicated by her question like that. But then thinking about it for a moment, he nodded firmly, "Madam, just let me know when you need me. I will help you with my best." He said and Li Xue smiled before quirking her brow with smugness on her face.

Feng Shufen smiled at her before turning to look at his secretary. Although not said he could understand what made him take that decision so firmly.

Gao Fan looked at him and avoided his gaze. He didn't feel wrong agreeing with the lady. After all, even if he had not agreed with her today, later when she would have asked something, he wouldn't be allowed to deny her. So why not agree to her at the very first instant itself?

After driving for a little while more, the car soon entered the forest and got pulled up at the entrance.

Giving a smile of gratitude to Gao Fan, Li Xue got down the car before asking a maid to put away the dresses she got. Since it was still a surprise, she didn't want her baby to know about it. The maids nodded to her as they helped the things in.

"Did WeiWei wake up?" Li Xue asked and one of the maids nodded.

"Yes, Madam. Young little miss has been waiting for you in the living hall."

Nodding to them, Li Xue soon walked inside and the moment she walked in, her baby rushed to her before wrapping herself around her legs. "Mama, where did you go, leaving WeiWei sleeping at home?"

Li Xue smiled at her princess. Ruffling her hair, she said softly, "I didn't leave you, sweetie. You were sleeping so I didn't disturb you."
