Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

The next morning when Li Xue woke, her cheeks blushed in a hue of red. Although right now she was wrapped in the blanket and nothing was on reveal still, the feeling from the last night lingered on her skin as if those melting kisses were still pleasuring her soul. Feng Shufen's wrap from behind was still confirming how lovingly he kept her in his possession last night.

"Did you sleep well?" Suddenly the groggy voice from the side took her off guard. She flinched slightly but then giving a breath out, she turned to look at him with pursed lips. The arms wrap didn't loosen around her, she was just allowed to shift to her comfort in it.

"You are asking me? Mr. Beelzebub, don't you know it yourself". As she asked, her eyes squinted at him, getting small than usual while her lips turned in the shape of a pout.

Feng Shufen looked at her and couldn't help but find her more adorable. "I saw you sleeping peacefully earlier but still thought to ask you out of courtesy. Seems like I haven't seen it wrong." He said before pinching her cheeks softly and pulling her face lightly up to peck her lips.

That kiss was soft and pleasing but it still was unexpected so when that happened, Li Xue didn't relax instead jabbed his chest softly to say, "Courtesy? Where did this courtesy go last night? I thought you were tired and would sleep but never expected you to turn into a wolf. It felt I became your prey very innocently."

Feng Shufen heard her and an amused rumble rang from his chest. "Prey's innocence always turns to the advantage of the predator. So, I didn't mind your innocence last night."

As he said Li Xue only turned to be speechless. Why did she even start when she knew that in the end, she would be the one getting speechless? Shaking her head on her own forgetfulness, she turned to look at the clock, only to quirk her brows at the time.

"Oh, it's already this late. WeiWei might wake up anytime. Mr. Beelzebub, it's time for us to get dressed first." She said as clutching the blanket to her chest, she was ready to get out of the bed. But just when she could get out, Feng Shufen pulled her back in to say.

"You can take a rest for some more time. WeiWei won't come until a little late." He said with an expression that of confidence.

Li Xue raised her brows at his words. Although her daughter was well-mannered and generally didn't appear to disturb them, she was still a child who loved to greet her parents in the morning the very moment she got out of bed. It was her habit which just not her but even Feng Shufen knew very well. Then today, how suddenly could it be the other way?

She didn't say anything but her curious eyes fixed on the man's face were enough to make him reveal.

"Last night when I was reading her the bedtime story, I asked her to wait for us at the dining table." He said, and his plan further surprised her. She didn't know whether she should laugh or cry at his mastery. But one thing was sure, she was really too innocent for him and that might be one of the reasons that might have charmed him towards her.

Shaking her head internally, she said, "Even if she waits for us at the table, we still need to get out of the bed, Mr. Beelzebub. Otherwise, how else do you think we would be able to get dressed. Furthermore, when you did the deed last night, you didn't ask me if my schedule was free today. I still had things to do later in the day, so I need to get dressed and start the day soon."

As she said, she got out of bed to walk away. But after a taking a step, she paused with some thought before turning back to look at the man with a gentle smile. Then bending down to him, she kissed his forehead before drawing to whisper near his ear. "Playing innocent doesn't hurt the prey when the predator is you. Thank you."

She said before pulling away to rush to the washroom to get fresh first. After saying that, she didn't dare to look back at the man, knowing that if she turns to look at him, she would regret her words very badly.

While looking at her from behind, Feng Shufen couldn't help but smile. Her flushness like this was just around him, he knew it and it still kind of amuses him.

Sitting on the bed for a while more, he finally thought to get out of the bed and follow his set schedule when at the bedside, his phone rang.

When he checked who was calling, his expression changed as without even giving any second thought to it he disconnected the call. But even after his blatant disconnection, the phone rang again making his expression go darker.

"Seems like the caller has something important to say. Why are you not receiving it?" Coming out of the washroom at that time, wrapped in a bathrobe, Li Xue asked. Her hair was wet and she was drying it with a towel.

Feng Shufen looked at her and his expression eased. Putting his phone on silent, he shook his head before keeping it aside. "It's not important." He said before walking out to add, "Your hair is wet, let me help you dry it."

Li Xue shook her head. "No need for that. I would do it myself. You should go and freshen up first. It's already time for breakfast." She said and looking at the time on the clock, Feng Shufen nodded before walking next to the bathroom.

Once he was gone, Li Xue's gaze turned back to look at the phone. She could still see it vibrating and flashing with calls. He said that the caller was not someone important, but it seemed like he is very important to the caller. As she thought about it like that, she stepped towards the side of the bed to check the name of the caller with curiosity. And the next moment, her lips curled up while her brows got raised in amusement.

She need not have to think of a far sought name to know who it was actually. Just the memory from the last night was enough to tell that Ms. Zhang might be finding a way to clear her name in front of the man.
