Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 38 - This particular pair was going to change him inside out.

Li Xue was all struck with the man's word. Is this how people behave when someone comes to show their gratitude to them? She has never thought that any man can be so full of himself that everywhere he goes he will think the world is under him and people will follow whatever he says.

She was not the type of woman who will encourage this type of disbelief. She will let him know that this world was not all about him. That she was not the woman who will give in to his words and demands just because he was intimidating in nature. With such determination in her eyes she turned to look at the man, who had walked away like the king after declaring his royal decree.

She was all prepared to charge him with her words but the moment her eyes fell on the pair, she got dumbfounded.

Feng Shufen was sitting beside the little girl, with a book in his hands. He has suited himself with the woman's presence in a way where it felt there were not visiting his house rather than living there.

He was sitting in his best posture and was all focused on the book. On his exact left hand side, Little Li Wei was sitting just imitating him. It was hard to tell the difference between the imitation and the original, since they both looked so natural.

The way the pair was sitting beside each other did not give any air of unfamiliarity. They looked so like each other. A pair of big and small angels sitting beside each other with an attitude to enchant the whole universe with their charm and beauty.

The only difference that can be pointed out right now was the difference in their height and also the hair color which the girl has got from her. Her little angel was looking more like the splitting image of her Handsome Angel.

How is that even possible?

Though the details are very minute and will not come in one's eyes at a single glance. But to the people who have lived and known any of these two, can catch the familiarity.

Was this any kind of hallucination she was getting? Because there is no way she has seen or met this man before. And she was sure of this fact with all her might.

Her brain was all muddled with all these thoughts when another jolt of familiarity between them struck her. After giving her whole focus and dedication to the book, the little girl has finally completed her task of reading it.

As it has been really late since she has last taken the look of her mother, so the first thing she did after putting the book aside was to lift her eyes to search her mother around. "Mama, why are you still standing there", she said with a cute questioning pout and then patted the seat beside her to welcome her mother.

The soft voice of the little girl also made Feng Shufen look at her in that very instant, only to find her all dazed and struck at her place.

Li Xue was taken aback when she realized another most prominent familiarity between them. At this moment when the two pairs of eyes stared at her, she was able to discern why the man's steely eyes had felt so familiar to her earlier. Why has it made her feel like she has always seen them? Why did it make her feel like it was the reason for all her happiness?

Because in the actual sense her thoughts were somehow coming very true. Those eyes were very similar to the ones that have brought back her soul in her body and liveliness in her life.

She looked at the little girl who was innocently looking at her and patting her side asking her to go and have a seat. Then her eyes got to look at the man who was also looking at her like she was of some weird species existing on this earth. Looking at them like this, she could not bring herself to be calm anymore.

She was losing all her thoughts thinking how absurd her senses are getting. Her eyes and thoughts are making her weave the threads of obscure bonding between her own daughter and a stranger. A stranger whom she had never known before.

Not knowing how to react to her own ambivalence, she forged forward in her daughter's direction and said in a slight jittery way, "Li Wei, it's getting quite late. We should head back now. Mama has work tomorrow and Uncle also needs rest"

Saying this she made the little girl stand on her feet and turned to give a quick goodbye to the man. Feng Shufen was still looking at her with his deep eyes as if reading her anxiousness and actions. Nothing extra was showing on his face. Laziness was there in his eyes along with the light of curiosity which was further creating a difficult situation for her.

Shrugging off those strange feelings, he was giving to her she said, "Sorry for interrupting your rest and peace. We really didn't intend to. I was just here to show my gratitude to you for taking care of my daughter yesterday, but I don't think that it has gone in any proper way. Since it is already late, we won't disturb you anymore. If time goes good and our paths crossed again then I will make sure that my actions can show you the sincerity in my gratitude"

She hastily finished speaking and tugged her daughter lightly to escape. Li Wei didn't say anything. She can feel her mother's sudden anxiousness and was all ready to go according to her. Helping her mother out was the main focus of this sweet darling, no matter who was in front of her. Her mother was the chief priority in her heart.

Li Xue was only a step away from her successful escape when suddenly Feng Shufen's cold mysterious voice came from behind her, "I will believe your words then. The next time our paths crossed, don't forget to show me how sincere your heart is in reality".

His words gave an anticipative shiver in the woman's heart but shaking it off she ran away, not turning to look at the man who has made her feel like this.

Feng Shufen looked at the disappearing silhouette of the woman and the little girl. The little girl turned back to wave her hands at him giving a warm smile. He returned her actions back till they were completely out of his sight. His lips tugged upwards in a smirk when he remembered her anxious promising words.

Without realizing, four words escaped his lips looking in the direction the pair left, "So cute and adorable". If anyone would have heard those words from his lips they would have been shocked to death. The Feng Shufen, this world knows wasn't made to appreciate anyone and that too with such soft words. This wasn't his character.

But the man in the talks has already grown used to it. He has accepted the fact that this particular pair was going to change him inside out making exceptions one after the another. Everything in the favor of them. Some were already made and some were on their way to be implemented.

Earlier he has deliberately tried to distract himself from the woman. The way her eyes were looking at him. How adorably those pairs were holding her confusions!? Her gaze and presence was rapidly changing something inside him, like it was making him lose something so that he can get prepared to gain something more valuable in his life.

And that feeling was making him uneasy. The effect she was having on him on their very first meeting was making him feel uncomfortable inside. What felt more weird was not just this. It was his own attitude towards her.

Getting so uncomfortable with her presence, he must have already pushed her aside giving a warning to never come near him. But here, instead of doing so he was just trying and planning to pull her more towards himself. In a way in which she can never get away from him.

He was getting an urge to cage her all for himself but at the same time his own thoughts were asking her to give her the freedom about which the whole world desires. For the first time in his life he felt so confused, confused about what he wants and the reason behind it.
