Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 733 - SOMETIME in the morning.

In the room of Chiboa's City Hospital, the air was eerily calm.

At this moment, Qi Shuai could not dare to choose his words carelessly. His eyes would go to stare at the woman sitting at the distant couch in the room, but he could not pluck up the courage to gaze at her for long.

"Didn't I tell you to keep your eyes to yourself? Why is it still wandering around me?" Feng Yi Lan snapped. Her composure looked all nonchalant but deeply furious. With her arms crossed over her c.h.e.s.t and legs over one another, she has kept her eyes closed to hide her honest fury inside.

"But LanLan, I …"

"Director Qi, do you want me to gouge your eyes out?" She snapped again, bringing death silence again in the air.

Hearing her say that Qi Shuai almost hid inside the blanket, murmuring under his breath. 'LanLan, you know you are not sounding any less scary than your Devil brother. Did you get possessed by him?'

He has heard that women do get angered at times and that fury becomes something men could not easily control. But still never in his dreams did he expect that his sweetest LanLan would also be the same someday.

How did I never take her as a woman? Why has my brain always restricted me to think of her as the sweetest girl who grew up in front of me? Sigh! And why the hell did I anger her like that?

Qi Shuai questioned himself and was on the verge of a loud cry when suddenly the inauspicious phone beside the man on the table rang again. Though the ringtone of the phone was set to match the bubbliness of the man, at the present moment, it was somewhat giving a death vibe.

This … This … Does this have to ring again? Do the Heavens really want me to die single now?

Qi Shuai cursed under his breath as his eyes horridly looked at the phone ringing and flashing light before slowly and slowly moving back to look at the woman on the couch. Her eyes were still closed but he could still figure out the slight twist of her expressions.

"Aren't you going to take that call, Director Qi?"

The man nearly jumped off his bed at her voice as he slowly saw her brown pairs opening to look at him curiously. Though as usual, her voice was soft and elegant. Within that softness there was a feeling of hidden terror that could scare him off even if it was asking for his well being. "I-I guess I should not think about it". He stuttered, with an awkward curl of his lips.

He would be insane to think of taking that call. These calls were the cause of everything. Why would he again dare to provoke the woman receiving it? ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ Noᴠelꜰire

Feng Yi Lan looked at him for some moment before disagreeing with his words. "I think Director Qi should take the call, otherwise, your several girl – I mean friends would be worried for your health. You shouldn't make those beauties worry for you, Director Qi." She said. Her tone sounded more like a death decree than the concern for the other women.

Qi Shuai looked at her and swallowed. "LanLan, believe me, it's not like that. Those were all one-sided and have taken me wrong. In no way, I believe that my words would have given them hints. Definitely, no way!" he tried to explain again, but when saw the unwavering gaze of the woman, he could only concede.

"You should pick up before the call dies down, Director Qi!" Feng Yi Lan said and at once the man's hands moved to reach the phone before receiving it.

"Hello! Who is calling this time?" Qi Shuai asked in the weirdest tone as he received the call as if his life was put on the gunpoint. But his expression changed a little when he heard the other side as if he had recognized some long distance friend all of a sudden.

Feng Yi Lan noticed that change in expression but didn't say anything. Instead, she just kept her stares at him. But now that he has gotten himself busy on the call, it felt like his eyes no longer returned to her. Seeing him suddenly so ignorant towards her, a wave of uneasiness rose in her heart as she continued hearing their talk from one side.

"Oh BaoBao[1], I didn't expect you to return back to the country. Haven't you permanently shifted abroad? How come you are back suddenly."

Though Feng Yi Lan could not hear the words from the person on the other side of the call, from Qi Shuai's words she could easily make out the conversation from both sides. Her fingers slowly clenched at the close endearment used in the conversation.

"Ah, for me. You shouldn't have bothered. I am fine now. You should stay back and rest as well. You are not quite used to traveling. If not wrong, you must already be nauseous from your jet lag." He said, getting more focused on the person on the other side of the call.

"…"

"Oh, you want to come here and stay with me at the hospital. But …" Qi Suai said helplessly as finally after so much time, his eyes went to look at the woman as if asking for her permission for the other person. And that was all that took …

Feng Yi Lan was no longer able to contain herself at the place. Her features turned sharp and dangerous, as she at once got up from her place and took her quick steps to reach the man on the bed.

Without giving any chance to him to explain anything, her hand swiftly took away the phone before putting it on her ears to say. "I know Ms. BaoBao cares a lot for Director Qi. But it's useless for you to worry so much for the man who has his girlfriend beside him to take care. So, as he said, please stay back and rest. You can come to meet him for SOMETIME in the morning tomorrow".

She said, then before hearing the reply from the other side disconnected the call, sending daggers from her eyes at the man sitting next to her.
