Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

"What do you mean by saying that it's not Director Qi? Didn't the last time she introduced him as her boyfriend then …" Wen Sying asked, not understanding the things quite clearly. "Wait, if not Director Qi then who did she marry? Wenting, did she ..."

"Don't ask me Sying. I don't know who the hell did she marry? What I know that even though she has not got any legal certificate yet, she is still considered someone's wife in the eyes of law" Wenting said, clenching his jaws tight at that piece of information.

His full nervous system was aching but an inner voice was telling him that his anger at the situation was wrong. That he no longer had any right to behave like this over a woman who is not under his care. Not like she ever has been there.

"Someone's legal wife without getting a certificate? How can that be possible? I have never heard any such sort of thing" Sying got more befuddled, the more she tried to understand. But then suddenly her eyes shined with something but that shine disappeared as soon as it came.

Giving an appearance of worry, she asked, tugging lightly on the sleeves of the man to make him look at her. "Wenting, did Li Xue get into some trouble? Did she marry someone out of some need? Like to make her comeback easy and comfortable … No, no, no … if things are like that then I am truly worried for her. We … We definitely can't leave her like that. Being her friend, we need to help her out" She said.

Wenting looked at her and simply shook his head in denial. "No, we will be doing nothing like that, Sying. Looking at Li Xue, I don't think that she was forced to remain with that man. She, sure, was happy with him. And now that she has challenged me, I can't back down in front of her. If she is in trouble, then let her combat with the world like that only. I have already forwarded my helping hand to her once since she has blatantly refused it then let's keep it that way"

The man fumed as his eyes mirrored the boiling anger he was holding in his heart. Sying was satisfied looking at him like that but she was still missing something in the mid. So she asked, "Challenged you? For what? Wenting, you should not take all this to your heart. She must be under pressure. You need to understand this".

"That's enough, Sying. You have really defended her enough. I don't want to hear all those sh*t. She had been contumacious for too long, now she needs to be taught a lesson and I will make sure that she learns one, even if that means ruining her comeback", Wenting said, fisting his fingers with determination at his sides.

Wen Sying was satisfied but her façade could never bear to share this side of her. So, going against her reality, she said, "Wenting, what preposterous are you talking about? You know she is upset with us. We cannot add fuel to a burning house. And ruining her comeback? Do you even know how excited she is for that? Destroying her dream again will only put her in despair and I know that's something you will never be able to do even if she insults you for the thousandth time"

"You are right! I would have never thought to do this, Sying if she has been the same Li Xue she had been before. But now that she has changed then I won't back down too. If destroying her dreams meant putting her in despair, then it's fine too. Since she has changed herself so much to care for someone else's preferences then she would also learn that arrogance is only suited to the people who are capable of holding it. Not on someone like her". He said pausing a bit in his words.

His jaws remained clenched the whole time. He simply could not let go of the change of attitude he witnessed in Li Xue today. For the first time in his life, her eyes seemed devoted to someone but he could not believe that it was not him rather was someone else. He has never thought that she has this side in her personality too until he saw it from his own eyes. She looked so desperate to go near that man like her life depended on the presence of him.

It was the side of him, he has always begged for himself. But heartlessly, she has ignored, pretending that she was not capable of such a side in her personality.

No, he would not let her make fun of him like that. Turning his back to Sying, he continued, "Don't worry, Sying I am not as harsh as you think. I would still offer her a chance but this time that chance won't be served to her on the silver platter, the way I have served my help to her. She would need to beg for it. I won't be easy on her this time. This time she will learn to ask … learn to bow … learn to beg".

"Wenting …!" Sying faked a sigh as she closed up to warp her arms around him from behind. "I believe that you would do the things right, the same way you have done always. I will always stand by your side. Don't worry!"

"I know. Now, you go and sleep. I still have a few calls to make. Will join you back on the bed after a little bit", Wenting said, turning around, keeping her still in his embrace. His lips slightly up with some contentment. And Wen Sying was all aware that hint of contentment in his smile was not for her rather for the plan he was cooking in his head. But did that matter to her?

Nope, she was happy with his happiness after all his plan was helping her in defeating Li Xue too.

"Calls? But your phone is already …" she said, gesturing to him to look at the floor where his phone was shattered into several pieces. "I doubt you can make any call now".

"The calls are a little urgent. I would not delay it. Borrow your phone for now. I will call Mr Shen to make some arrangements and that will be enough" he said as his eyes followed to look at the phone that has been destroyed with the point of no repair.

Wen Sying smiled as she nodded. "Sure! You can take my phone to make calls but make sure to end it soon. It's already so late and you cannot make your secretary work after work hours like this".

The man nodded and Sying brought her phone to hand it over to him. "Here, you go!" Giving it she went back to the bed while Zheng Wenting made a call to his secretary.

As the call got connected he ordered. "Mr Shen, sell some of my assets and help me venture Galaxy Light and Oriental Spark together. And also arrange an appointment with both fashion agency's CEOs tomorrow. I have a great plan for them to execute".
