Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Li Xue asked all seriously, looking into the eyes of Feng Shufen. Her hands over her hips, portraying her posture perfectly like a mother reprimanding her husband for spoiling their kid unnecessarily.

Feng Shufen's expression only moved faintly as he smiled. "That's not a problem. Chiboa has always been encouraging high IQ students in the universities. Don't trouble yourself with those thoughts. I will always take care of WeiWei."

Hearing such nonchalant words, Li Xue could only facepalm herself. "Mr Beelzebub, do you really think I am caring for that? I am just saying that I thought to have an ordinary sweet little daughter but with you around, I am feeling like everything is turning extraordinary. Not just my life but also the people and things happening around me".

Though her tone was intended to show her disappointment, still the disappointment felt the last thing in there. She was feeling more surprised and stunned in a healthy way.

Looking at her that way, Feng Shufen was confused for a second. His brows furrowed, not understanding her words and attitude. For a moment, he felt like he had done something that the woman was not liking.

Without any warning, he extended his hands at lightning speed and pulled Li Xue back on himself. His movements were swift as ever, making the woman's heart race.

Her eyes went back to stare at him, but this time there wasn't any mischief in his eyes. No tease. No desire but a sear confusion that she, herself, could not understand.

Was he confused? This was the first time of her seeing him that way. The man has always been an answer to her every confusion. There was no way she had ever thought that her words would be capable of confusing him.

No doubt, he said that she has the capability to bring out his worst. Maybe this confusion was one of those worst.

"Are you upset because of my presence around you? Am I burdening your life with anything?" Feng Shufen suddenly asked. His expression, all stern and serious, like he was contemplating some life-death situation.

His eyes getting all cold, ready to punish someone. But that someone was definitely not her. Darting his pair of orbs, he looked at her more carefully as if trying to read her in a more meaningful way but the confusion her words created earlier was not giving him anyway.

Li Xue smiled at his serious expression. This was her first time seeing him like this. He looked like an adorable curious kid, who was all serious to find the secret on which the whole world's existence depended on.

The frown on Feng Shufen's brows only deepened when instead of hearing a reply to his asked question, he saw the woman giving a smile. "Li Xue, I …" He began his words slowly, feeling a bit scared of something unknown. Only this woman had the capability to scare him like this. None ever had and none never will. His every hidden weakness and biggest strengths were all reserved for her. Only for her!

"Shhh …" Li Xue halted his half-started words in the mid, placing one of her slender fingers over his lips, while his other hand went up to caress his frowning brows. "Didn't I say that you should not frown like this too much? You would get aged too early and I would not want that. At least, you need to wait until I take the advantage of you once. Don't you feel that if you aged before that, all your charms will get wasted for nothing?"

She said as she seductively moved her fingers to slowly trace the sides of his face, then moving it to his warm pair of lips.

Feng Shufen looked at her every move. To say he was not affected by her soft words and touches would definitely not serve any justification to the truth, because his every nerve was just acting to lose control. But he was controlling them hard, not forgetting her words from before. He wanted to hear her say the clarification.

If she was not liking the way he was around her, then he would bring himself to change only for her comfort.

Reaching her hands, he halted her actions. He was already on the brink of losing and in no way, he would want that especially after knowing that the woman has a career to look after first. A dream to achieve first!

"Li Xue, answer me first. Are you getting bored with my tease and presence around? Do you feel burdened". He asked all seriously. Though there was no experience, he has read somewhere that being around someone for too long, women or men often starts getting bored with the monotonous life.

"Did my words make you feel like that?" Seeing him getting so concerned and terrified at her simple words, Li Xue could not help but ask him. She never intended to sound that way. Maybe her approach to say things have been wrong. Sighing to her own wrong ways, she pulled her hands back from his hold, all easily and softly.

And the man let her go, not keeping her in any restraints. Maybe because he has already seen her intentions through his eyes. She was too readable in his eyes. Only sometimes, he gets confused around her.

Getting her hands free, Li Xue again moved her hands to touch him. But this time in a sober way, not with any intention of tease. Caressing him lightly over his cheeks, she said, making him understand her heart in a more better and precise way, "Your existence in my life itself is a magic, Mr Beelzebub. And magic could never be a burden, rather it is just like a shine that brings brightest shimmers to even the dullest corners of your life".

The man felt something thump hard against his chest at her words. The details of heart had never been his subject of study, so he had no idea of it. But something he knew was that the words of the woman were enough to assure his scared self with some relief.

There fell silence. Though even in the silence, her presence was enough, still just to extend this moment with her, he asked, "Then your words earlier … why did I feel like you were displeased?"

Li Xue's curved lips became a bit pressed as she confessed. "That's because now between you two, I feel like I have become a dumbhead." She paused with a sigh and then squinting her eyes at him, continued, "Come on, tell me, from where have you learnt all these tricks of parenting. Are you preparing to get the award of best father in this world?"

The man broke a loud fluttery chuckle at her words. He was scared moments before but now it felt all right and perfect.

Best father of this world? Quite not! He just wanted to be the best person in the two beautiful lady's lives.

When his chuckle came to an end, he lightly pinched her cheeks in adoration and sliding his fingers over the edge of her nose, he said, "How can that be? You have been my teacher. I have learned WeiWei and the right ways to become her father from you. There is no way you could be a dumbhead".

Li Xue was perplexed with his words. Learned from her?

Scrunching her nose a little at his words, she pointed a finger to herself and asked, "Me? You learned the ways of parenting from me? I didn't remember giving any lessons to you".

The man nodded, before saying, "Yes! You taught it very easily. Just be easy, give your time and then try to put your best sides into your kid. And that was more than enough for me to understand".

So, all this time, it was not any book but the man was minutely reading her ways around WeiWei? And she thought he got books for himself to study. Sigh! This man was too cunning for his own good.
