Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Feng Yi Lan has never thought that she would be doing something this childish in front of her brother. She was already big enough to show her maturity, but for once, believing in Li Xue's words she thought to stake and test the real love and hatred of her brother.

Though she was capable enough to dodge her mother's words, she still took it as a bait to check his brother's attitude towards her. She so wanted Li Xue's words to turn out to be true but still at some corner of her heart, she can't get herself too sure about it.

Looking at her brother with her best pout, she wished that for once the man could show his brotherly warmth to her. Gives her the shelter which every sister expects from her elder brother. She wished that for once she gets some hints that turn all her thoughts for her brother's hatred to be false.

Her eyes were literally begging him to protect her from the situation. Asking him to show his care for her. It sounded childish because she knew well that her elder brother would be able to see through her prank but still she wanted to try out her chance.

But when she saw Feng Shufen all still and unmoving at his place, she sighed in disappointment and turned back to accept her bitter truth. 'I was right before. Li Xue just doesn't know my brother. He hates me and no one can change it. I have to accept it even if I don't want it to be true.'

But her step instantly halted when she heard his voice from behind. It felt like she had finally found the end of a dark abyss. Instantly turning on her heels, she looked back at him. Her eyes blinking expectantly and lips getting a beautiful exciting curl.

"Yi Lan, I needed to see this last quarter's agenda file of your fashion boutique. If you want an uninterrupted flow of investment from Feng Internationals then better show me something worthy in it or you can just forget about it. There are more better investment plans lined up in the queue". Shufen said coldly, without batting any concern on how it sounded.

His words might be cold but it was enough for Feng Yi Lan to jump out of joy. 'My brother's coldness towards me is not out of hatred rather it is because he is a cold Devil by nature'. Thinking it her own way, she internally squealed with happiness. This was the confirmation she was looking for and finally, she has got it.

Nodding her head, she said, "Yes, yes I have that file here. I will bring it for you to see. Don't worry, I will never do anything to disappoint you". She said and then pulling her hands out from her mother's grasp, she leapt upstairs the same as some puppy who had just seen her master throwing a ball for her to bring it back.

Zhen Qinrou's facial expression got changed for a minutest second but none men stopped to care about it. They turned to get their seats on the sofa while the woman said from behind, "Sigh! This naughty lass really admires her brother a lot. Just his few words and she is so energetic as if she is ready to run a marathon now. Haha …"

"Don't mind her. This is a good bonding that every sibling must share between each other", Feng Yu Hao said with a light shrug, signalling her wife to go and get her things done. Zhen Qinrou also nodded as she made her way first in the direction of the kitchen, then quickly upstairs.

Fen Yi Lan was enjoying her happiness in her room when suddenly her mother barged in with an expression of fury on her face. But she got still at her place when saw the bubbly smile on the face of her daughter.

Yi Lan's lips also got twitched when she saw her entering in. But without giving a good glance at her, she shook her head and went to check something in her cupboard. Or more like want to show her mother that she was busy and had no time blabber at her.

"Yi Lan! What are you doing? Can't you see that …" before letting her complete her words, Yi Lan interrupted.

"Don't you feel mother that there is something wrong in our drama script? I mean I should be asking this question from you since it's not me but you, who have barged into my room unannounced".

"Yi Lan!!" Zhen Qinrou wasn't able to control herself from yelling when heard her daughter blatantly insulting her. "How many times do I have to let you know that this is not a way to talk to your mother?"

"And how many times do you want me to say that accepting you as my mother after knowing everything is the last thing I want to do in my life", Yi Lan said lightly, in a much calmer tone; just opposite to the one her mother has used at her.

Then going back to her cupboard shelves, she said, "If you have nothing else to do then please don't bother yourself by standing here. I have a lot better things to tend than to entertain you"

Zhen Qinrou looked at her daughter and had no words to say. Shaking her head in dismay, she said in a voice full of disappointment. "How can I even put some sense into your brain, Yi Lan. Can't you feel the dominance Shufen is having in this household? He wants you to keep begging in front of him. Today it is for menial investment and tomorrow it will be something else."

You admire him, right? I am not stopping you from doing that. Admire him and try to learn from him. Be like him. You are also a Feng by blood. If he can rule the masses so can you. Why are you giving away the power and privileges that can be yours? Do you want yourself to be a slave on his mercy?"

"…", Yi Lan did not say anything. She just kept herself busy in her cupboard. To say that she was even listening to her mother's words would be tough but seeing her hands halt in the middle of the shelves, Zhen Qinrou knew daughter was hearing her words.

"Yi Lan, you need to understand things. Just standing opposite to your mother will not be going to help you out. You need to make yourself smart and powerful enough to rival him or else you will end up with nothing but in more worse situation than your mother". She boosted her words more, thinking that finally, her daughter was ready to hear her out but little did she expect her last next coming words will make her doubt her own self.

"I can never end up in a situation like you, Mother. Even in my dreams, I will never allow myself to be the same as you. And also don't ever come to provoke me against my brother like this or I will not hesitate in letting father know that I have no interest in the properties and assets he has kept for me. And it will be much better if he could transfer it under the name of someone else".

Her eyes let out a warning glare as she continued, "Being my mother you would know one thing that hesitation in showing off my daringness is the last thing in my blood. Being a Feng, of course!"
