Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 747 - None were capable.

"*Cough* How are you now Director Qi? I can see with Yi Lan around, you no longer look like a patient." Li Xue could not help but cough to break the silence. Her eyes, looking alternatively at both the persons she mentioned in her talks.

Then exchanging glances with Feng Shufen, she asked him to follow her suit. She could not believe someone's EQ could be this low where he doesn't even know how to greet a patient.

But Feng Shufen still kept his words sealed with his both hands tucked inside the pocket.

"Li Xue, what are you saying?" Feng Yi Lan suddenly turned to ask to which Li Xue just shrugged her shoulders off in innocence.

What can I mean, Yi Lan? I am honestly innocent and just meant the truth. You can't doubt me in that. Li Xue defended herself with her internal voice then pulling her lips into a smile, she spoke, "Nothing special, dear. I was just greeting Director Qi".

"Oh, Sister-in-law, you have come to meet me early in the morning, how can I not be fine? How good it would have been if someone else also knew how to express their brotherly love." Qi Shuai said as his eyes meaningfully looked at his friend, who was still standing there like a huge log.

Li Xue didn't fail to notice the silver line of annoyance on the Director's face, but she chose to ignore it, given that the relation between the two friends is better known by two. Others don't stand a place to intrude.

"Hehe … if everyone would be same, Director Qi, wouldn't I lose my significance?" Li Xue said, slightly supporting the side of her husband, after all, she doesn't think him to be heartless, otherwise how was he so tensed and lost the other day when she met him?

Of course, because he was worried for his dearest friend.

Once said she held back the arms of the man beside her as she was about to walk in to take a seat on the couch. But before she could take her steps any ahead, she was held back by Feng Yi Lan.

"Where are you going, girl? We have no time to relax. New Year Eve is day after tomorrow and just after that is Aurora's spring fashion launch. We still have many things to discuss." Yi Lan said as she quickly detangled her friend's from her brother to take her away.

But her action was suddenly paused in the tracks when felt a bone freezing glare on herself. She gulped as her gaze slowly lifted to look at her brother.

"Ah, Brother, why are you looking at me like you are ready to kill me straight away? Can you please be a little knowledgeable about the situation? I am your sister who is taking your girlfriend away to discuss work. She will be back to your side once we are done, not like I am making her escape with some other man under your nose?"

Feng Yi Lan blabbered out, not understanding what type of unique character her brother possesses for her dear friend. Just a little action with her could bring him to an edge.

"This is not the time, nor this is your office" Feng Shufen nonchalantly said, holding back Li Xue's hand on his side.

Why was the world, again and again, testing his limits? It was already hard to get some time with her and yet…

Feng Yi Lan could care less about her brother's mood at this time. She was not in her good shape to bear his overbearingness. So to put his brother at his place, she quickly added, "Hey, what is with this attitude? You already ruined half of my arrangement by deselecting every male model I got for the launch. And I didn't say a word regarding it. But now, you even have a problem with sharing my own friend with me. I won't give in to this. If you did not let me take her today, I will make sure to get a male model for her, much handsome than you, even if it means ruining the whole show. Do you hear that?"

She challenged with a fury laced voice but her fury broke the moment her eyes came in contact with her brother's fearsome gaze. Her legs quivered as she shook like a leaf. On the bed, even Qi Shuai got ready to jump off and wear his armour to save the beauty of his life.

Feng Shufen's gaze turned icy like his patience has been tested with the worst.? He was about to break free of his rage when suddenly the voice from his side snapped everything back to normal.

"Was that you to do those changes, Mr. Beelzebub?" Li Xue asked with a frown on her brows. Though the weirdness of the theme of Aurora Fashions has struck her thoughts before, she still ignored it thinking that nowadays the up-gradation of the society with the topic of empowering women was not a bad idea to begin the year with.

But little did she think that the man will be involved in all that with his significant purpose.

Seeing her friend come to her aid in such an extreme life and death situation, Feng Yi Lan didn't take much time before running behind her.

"Li Xue, you know I am so scared of him. Come on, protect me first" She murmured slowly to Li Xue's ears while looking timidly at her brother.

But to her astonishment, now facing Li Xue, Feng Shufen's eyes no longer held any iciness, instead, there was an abundance of warmth that could easily calm anyone in a moment.

How biased was he to treat his wife and sister so differently at the same time?

Hmph! Truly cruel!

"Mr. Beelzebub, I am waiting to hear you" Li Xue probed again when didn't see any response coming. Her expression, holding a sharpness but in a way that was not making it look piercing.

Feng Shufen stared at her with innocence laced in his gaze. Like he has not done something wrong. Like whatever he did, he had his reasons behind it. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ɴovel(F)ɪre

And that expression of his somewhat made Li Xue anticipate his words and those words came next, almost making the three people go speechless.

"None of their looks were capable to stand beside you!"
