Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Feng Shufen stared at her for an extra moment. His gaze that held nonchalance a few seconds ago suddenly showed the hints of obviousness that at once confirmed all the thoughts of Li Xue.

"They deserved it for spoiling their daughter to that extent". He simply said, as advancing his steps, he walked in the direction of the study. Li Xue turned to look at him, opening her mouth in disbelief.

Huh? Spoiling their daughter? Mr. Beelzebub, it's you who is spoiling me actually.

She thought internally before following after him. "Mr. Beelzebub, I thought after what all I explained to you, you would care to spare the princess. How did you turn out to be this merciless?" She said but, in her voice, there was no sympathy for the other party, rather there was just incredulity which was simply not letting her believe that her life had changed to this extent.

In the past, there were also times when she was aimed at by people. But at that time, she has always kept herself capable of tackling them. Her measures have never been extreme but it has always remained the way to keep people at their places. But now, after meeting this one person she feels like her ways were just too simple. How did she never think of harassing people like this?

Li Xue shook her head as she rushed her steps to match with the man before reaching out for his arms. "Mr. Beelzebub, I asked you something. Won't you …"

Before she could complete, the man already paused his steps to reply to her. "My love, I have always been merciless. It's just you who have come to know about it now." He said, turning to her to pat her cheeks gently. "Furthermore, I considered your words that's why haven't made the princess suffer."

He said before turning back to get inside the study room. While Li Xue was all dumbfounded.

Didn't make the princess suffer? Yes, he didn't let the princess suffer but has made all of them come to take the blame. The Devil simply has his ways to torture the poor souls. She shook her head as she again followed him inside the room.

"Mr. Beelzebub, fine, I don't mind you doing all you did to them but there is a request I want to make to you." She said before rushing once again to overtake him from ahead. Standing in front of him, she disrupted his way, halting him by pressing her hands against his chest. "Mr. Beelzebub, I said request; won't you hear me?"

She asked, looking up at him, blinking her eyes like a little soft puppy. Feng Shufen stared down at her and shook his head, "Don't look at me like that. I won't agree to your request if it's about helping them."

Li Xue shook her head. "It's nothing about helping them. Rather it's just opposite to it." She said, her expression suddenly taking a whole 180-degree change. Turning to look away she added, "Mr. Beelzebub, can you keep this mess continue for a bit more longer. I want them to dwell with this mess for a few more days so that I can come up with some good plan to get them added back in the support books of His Majesty."

She said as her eyes grew deep along with her words. Feng Shufen understood the depth of seriousness in her words. Tucking his hands inside his pants' pockets, he simply asked, "Plans from re-adding them? Have you thought about something?"

Li Xue shook her head, her eyes still staring at a distance, drowning in its own story. "Not yet, but given the information by You Jun and Mr. Secretary earlier, I have come to realize that Shens do play an important role among the royals. Losing just one of them may make His Majesty lose several other supporters, which won't be wise in any situation. Especially when Su Ce is waiting for an opportunity to claim his ways."

She said and, in her words, the depth of the situation could easily be heard. "I heard the people are shifting their sides and walking to him and if this continues, the situation would turn worst. And I don't want that worst to happen." She added before turning to look at the man. "So will you help me to keep the royales busy with this mess, Mr. Beelzebub?"

Li Xue asked, finding Feng Shufen's expression as serious as her.

"Do you think that re-including Shens would be enough?" Though he wasn't too involved in the matters, he has still put up some time to read the current matters of the royals. And given his understanding, he doesn't find things to be this simple. "Su Ce has been working on his plans for quite some time and his pillars are not just dependent on the few people who came leaving the side of His Majesty. He has been preparing for this day a long while and ruining his preparations won't come by re-adding Shens or a few others back. For that, you would have to …"

"Get the hold of the Su Ce's weak nerve." Before Feng Shufen could say, Li Xue completed it for him. "Don't worry, Mr. Beelzebub, I am aware of it. Adding Shens and others are in my plans but that's not the ultimate plan I am working at. There is something more." She said as her lips curled up in a smile to show confidence.

"The personality of the Prince is too perfect, and it's hard to find any flaw in his attitude as well. But one should never forget, the whiter the dress is, the easier it would be to see the dark spot on it." Li Xue added and her words held the deep meaning that although was easier to understand, but still tough enough to guess her plan.

Feng Shufen didn't need to know the whole description to help her. Just seeing the confidence in her eyes was enough to make him believe in her plans. "Fine then, this mess won't end until you are satisfied."
