Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Li Xue scratched the corner of her brows. How could she tell her friends when she, herself, had forgotten about the things? But she knew Feng Yi Lan has already kept Su Fai well informed about the happening in her life.

"Aye, about that, you can't blame me. I didn't think to hide it from you. It's just that I haven't gotten used to that title myself. How do you expect me to tell you or others about it?" She said and Su Fai just eyed her like he was saying that he wasn't going to buy her words.

To which, Li Xue pursed her lips and said, "Do you really not believe me? I mean I have yet to have a coronation ceremony. If I had one before, I think a part of me would have believed it. But since that ceremony is yet to happen, I assure you, I would invite you on my big day."

She said and pointing his finger up with full seriousness, Su Fai added, "You better remember your words then. I am looking forward to the invitation from the royal palace. I have heard a lot about its beautiful architecture." He said and Li Xue nodded to him understandingly. But her attitude held a casualness as if she was all used to hearing such comments.

After a short while of having words with Su Fai, Li Xue was about to turn and leave when, from the corner of her eyes, she caught the silhouette of Lin Xinyi coming out of the office room.

Her brows wrinkled at her sight as she asked, "Sister Xinyi, what happened? Is there something?"

"Oh Li Xue, I was looking for you. I thought you already left, but luckily you are still here." Lin Xinyi said as she gave a small look to Su Fai before turning back to look at Li Xue to add, "I just received a call from Royal Cultural Association Club. They won't be delaying their project any longer. So, it will be done by next week. From tomorrow, make sure you get there on time, okay?"

Li Xue didn't miss the look that Li Xinyi gave to Su Fai earlier. But she didn't think to probe it making the two uncomfortable. So, not saying anything about it, she simply nodded to the words of her manager to say, "I understand, Sister Xinyi. I would be there on time. Don't worry."

She said and smiling at her, Lin Xinyi nodded before reaching to pat her shoulders, "I know you will. Best of luck. Now I would go to make the arrangements. You can carry one with whatever you were planning on." Then giving one last glance in the way of Su Fai, Lin Xinyi walked away.

"Uhh, I think that you have proceeded somewhere. Want to share something, dear friend. If yes, I am all ears." Li Xue said to Su Fai, while her eyes kept following Lin Xinyi as she walked away.

Su Fai also looked Lin Xinyi's way and then after seeing her out of the vision, he shook his head, "Nothing has proceeded anywhere. Instead, I understood the reality."

Li Xue raised her brows at him and asked, "And what's that reality about?"

"That I don't deserve her." Su Fai said and Li Xue eyed him with great concern for a moment but then shaking her head, she reached out to pat his shoulder to say.

"In that case, dear friend, you really need to deal with your problem. I think if one's eyesight is wrong, none could help him or her. So, good luck."  She said and then turned to push the button of the elevator.

Su Fai was dumbfounded. He looked at Li Xue in puzzlement and asked, "Huh? What do you mean?"

At the same time, the elevator door dinged open and Li Xue entered inside to turn back at the man to say. Her lips curled up in a very beautiful smile. "I mean to say, you need to get your eye checked because from where I could see, the things are very clear. But you are thinking it hard to believe. Love is not a thing for cowards or delusional people. You need to be brave enough to accept it. So, get help with your case before it's too late. For now, I would take your leave CEO Su. Let's meet next time and see how well you have proceeded."

She said and just before Su Fai could say anything the door of the elevator closed, leaving him alone to ponder over the things.

While Li Xue looked at her phone as she got out of the elevator. She thought for a moment, before dialing Feng Shufen's number. After beeping for a few times, the ring went through and just after the first few rings, the call was answered.

"Hello, Mr. Beelzebub, are you at your office?" She asked the moment, the call got connected.

From the other side Feng Shufen hummed and replied, "Mhm, I am. Do you have something to tell me about?" He asked and Li Xue pursed her lips, understanding what he was asking about.

So, she instantly asked, "Are you upset that I ran off on my own in the morning? Look, I really have something important at that time. And right now, I am calling to explain it to you. But I won't be able to do it on the call. So, I want to ask you, if you are free, should I come to your office to accompany you?"

The line went silent for a moment as Feng Shufen didn't reply for a good time. When Li Xue felt the line going silent, she asked, "Hey! Mr. Beelzebub, are you still there? Did you even hear what I asked you?"

"Mhm. I will wait for you then. When you arrive, give a ring to Gao Fan, he would be there to receive you." He said and Li Xue instantly chimed.

"Fine then, let me see how long it takes for me to reach you. You can do your job until then." She said and disconnected the call.
