Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

The staff blinked his eyes as he looked between the two ladies alternating his eyes. He was just here to deliver the dress but now he was feeling like the job wasn't as easy as it was said.

"Ms. Feng, this dress was simply asked me to send here. But as far as we have been informed, this dress was just delivered to our store a few days back. And the name mentioned on the tag of the designer was not written as a whole. Instead, it was just some initial drawn over it."

Feng Yi Lan's brows tugged together as she quickly bent to get her phone. Then quickly moving her fingers over the screen, she turned her phone towards the man to ask, "Look at his style of initial. Was it something of this kind?"

Li Xue looked at the web searched image shortly before turning to look at the staff, waiting along with Feng Yi Lan to hear his reply.

The man took a step and leaned to look forward to check the image. His hands going on his specs to bring more clarity to his gaze. "Umm … it was something similar to this. Or maybe exactly similar to this." He spoke. Although he started sounding unconfident at first, towards the end of his words, he was very confident. "Yes, yes, now I remember. This was exactly the one I have seen on the detail card."

He spoke and the moment he did, Feng Yi Lan exclaimed with smug, "Exactly! I knew it. I knew it would be Weasley." She said and on her face the excitement of confirming the designer to be Weasley was clear.

Seeing her excited over someone else's name like that, Qi Shuai came forward with his hands tugged inside his pocket and a serious expression to ask, "Who is this Weasley, LanLan? You seem very happy knowing it was him. So, who is he?"

Although it was clear that the man was jealous of the name, Yi Lan didn't notice it in her excitement. So instead of reading too deeply into his words, she happily nodded to confirm. "Yes, of course, I am happy. It's Weasley finally. How can I not be happy, knowing that it's him?"

Hearing their exchange of words, Li Xue rubbed the side of her forehead. She knew exactly where their conversation was heading to. It was a pity that her friend couldn't feel it coming along with the spur of happiness.

Qi Shuai's expression hardened. It was just some time before he has heard Feng Yi Lan saying that she has chosen him to escape the blind date arranged by her mother. Then does that mean, will she reject him now and choose Weasley over him?

The more he thought about it the more anxious he felt inside. So, reaching out to hold the woman by her shoulders, he turned her to look at him before asking again. "LanLan, who is this Weasley? And how did I don't know him?"

Feng Yi Lan's brows wrinkled. "How would you know him, Brother Shuai. He was a part of my life when you weren't there. He is the man I have admired after you left me in States." She said and those words were like the jolts that jolted the core of the man.

He did wrong, leaving her back then. But he thought that he had got enough punishment for that. How did even how his suffering have not ended? If he hadn't left her back then, maybe the woman wouldn't have met this guy named Weasley.

Qi Shuai was there almost ready to give up when Li Xue shook her head internally before stepping in. Patting Feng Yi Lan's shoulders, she made her turn to look at her and then asked, "Yi Lan, I know you are happy finding that you weren't wrong about guessing the designer rightly. But can't you please be a little clear in your words while telling us, who exactly is Weasley?"

She asked before sending a look to Qi Shuai which meant clearly that the man didn't know anything about framing questions. Qi Shuai was almost drowning in the stream of regret when Li Xue showed him a ray of hope that gave him the strength to survive for some more time.

Feng Yi Lan laughed. "Oh, I am sorry. I almost forgot to keep that in my mind. After all, not everyone knows him." She said before giving a smile to Qi Shuai as well before continuing her words to say. "Weasley has been the designer whom I admire and also because of whom I took this fashion designing study very seriously back then. You can consider him my idol."

Li Xue still didn't get her words. So, she asked, "A designer as great as you admire him. How come I have never heard of him then?"

"That's because Weasley has remained active in the industry for only two years and six months and that was when you, yourself, were hibernating outside the industry. There are not many designs of his in the world. The ones that he designed are either sold off or have been kept safe for the coming auction when the price of it would only be multiplied."

Feng Yi Lan said and now, her words seemed to have some meaning that Li Xue could comprehend.

On the side, Qi Shuai felt relieved as well. So, Weasley wasn't any love rival in his life but some designer who became dormant after charming his girl in his absence. His lips pursed while Li Xue's eyes went to stop on the dress she got.

Feeling perplexed a little about it, she turned to ask, "Wait, Yi Lan, did you just say that designer, I mean Mr. Weasley has just got some of his designs in this world?"

Feng Yi Lan nodded to which Li Xue further gestured her to look towards the dress to continue, "Then does that means that this one that I have got was one of the rare pieces?"

Feng Yi Lan nodded. "Of course. That's why I was so enthralled. But anyway, why are you so surprised? People are selling his designs. Not like you got it for free."

Li Xue's expression didn't relax. Although she hasn't got the dress for free. It was still not paid at the price that would be equal to the price of rare goods.
