Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

When the topic of excuses was brought back in the conversation, Li Xue wanted to dig a hole in the ground to hide herself. It felt really embarrassing. She never thought that she would become such childish with someone in her life. This was something new. Though it always flustered her still it also gave the feeling that she was missing all her life.

The feeling of being pampered! The feeling of being treasured! The feeling where she can be sure that the other person will be patient with her! The feeling of being dear to someone!

A sheepish smile got over her lips enunciating the clarity of innocence in her eyes. That smile was enough to make the man skip a beat and feel the dryness of his throat. He wanted to move his eyes away from her but for some reasons, he was just unable to do so.

Scratching her brows lightly with her fingers, Li Xue said "Ahh … I am really sorry President Feng. I never thought that I would become so childish at that moment. I have never been like that with anyone, and have never thought that I would be like that ever in my life."

"You don't need to be like that with anyone!" he said instantly with a little rigidness in his words, a wave of possessiveness washing over his heart, urging him to claim her as his in front of the whole world.

Seeing the sudden change in his temperament, Li Xue was bewildered. Unknowingly her brows got a little wrinkled and lips rounded in the form of pout making it more impossible for the man. He felt like being in the closed space of the car with her was not making anything good in the situation. For the first time, he wanted to run away but there were no escaping points.

This woman is going to be my death today! Just how much torture is she planning to bring to my self-control? He thought to himself as his fingers got curled tightly into fists to strengthen the self-control inside.

"I said you don't have to be the same as everyone. Be like that just for me. Just for me!" he said, slightly gritting his teeth so that he can let the woman know the changes she was making inside him. He was losing himself whenever he was in front of her.

Being all influenced by her own low EQ, Li Xue failed to get the proper meaning behind his words and also his tensed aura. She simply nodded her head and said, "Oh okay! I got your meaning, President Feng!"

Feng Shufen sighed as he looked at the woman. He so wanted to bring his sister here to let her see that it was not him with a low EQ in this world rather her best friend. But he knows well that it will be only good for himself if this topic comes to a halt here otherwise it will be only him in an unbearable state.

Nodding his head, he turned to look to the other side of the window to calm his nerves down. Du Fan, the driver of the car, also felt pity when witnessing the scene behind. Though he had never intended to see these things, neither he was blind nor he was deaf to not know what was happening just a few meters away from him.

He really felt sympathy for his young master when he saw him in such a condition. There was no doubt that this was the first time he has fallen for someone but it was a pity that the woman for whom he has fallen cannot understand him and his ways. It becomes really hard for a partner if the other lacks EQ.

Li Xue also moved to look out of the window. She thought not to think about the words of Mia, but however she thought, those words were simply not leaving her memories. Every second she would dwell on the thought of whether to ask Mr Beelzebub about it or just let the things be the way they are.

As her thoughts were dwelling with each other so were her fingers. At the end, not able to take her own curiosity she finally turned to confront the man, only to find his eyes at her for quite some moments now.

"Is there something you want to ask? Just go for it. I won't judge you or your thoughts on the basis of your question. You can trust me", he said. His voice hitting her heart and her ears all soft and smooth.

Li Xue just looked at him and waited for some moments to clear her own mixed stream of thoughts.

Finally nodding her head, she took a deep breath in and voiced out her thoughts, "Fine! I have something to ask you President Feng. I just hope that my questions do not sound too personal to your ears. If you want, you can choose just not to answer them. I will understand" she said as her amber eyes looked understandingly into his cold grey steely ones, which had a hue of warmth on for her.

"Please go ahead! You don't have to be so formal", he said and assured her to not hesitate with him.

"I wanted to ask, what will be your choice of flowers when it comes to gift your woman? And have you ever gifted anyone …" she paused biting on her own tongue and then added, "the flowers. Have you ever been gifted?"

After she had messed with her own words, she just wanted to strangle herself. Her words were definitely a part of the question she wanted to ask him but that wasn't the only thing. And that was definitely not the way she wanted to present it in front of him.

She wanted to slap herself for being such a dumb one at the scene but that could not help her take her words back now. Her eyes became fixed at the person as she looked and looked at him, waiting for him to answer.

The man was also equally dumbfounded. He has not expected her to ask something like this and neither has known the reasons behind. Above all, gifting the flowers has yet to hit his brain.

Before this matter could go somewhere ahead, Du Fan announced from the front. "Young Master, we are already at Cygnus International School."
