Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

After taking what she needed back from the main mansion, Feng Yi Lan was driving back to her fashion store when her phone rang only to bring a big smile over her lips. Receiving the call at an instant, she greeted all happily, "Hey, my love! How are things going? I am seeing you all over the news and internet. Do you even know how happy I am for you?"

She chimed like a proud mother who can deem nothing best except her child. Li Xue could not help but chuckle lightly at her friend's words. If there was a feeling of warmth somewhere, then the present moment was one for her. "Hehe … Yi Lan, you know well to cheer me even in the worst". She said, shaking her head.

"Worst? Who said so? Let me know and I will go bonk his head a thousand times. Anything that has my dear Li Xue cannot be worse." She said and Li Xue could not say anymore. She knew how protective her friend was for her and she was the same.

"Fine, fine, later if someone says that to me. I will let you know first. Help me settle him then. Now can we talk about the thing for which I have called you?"

"Of course, with my pleasure" Feng Yi Lan said like a lady, breaking out into a chuckle.

"Okay then, wait. Let me get into the form" Li Xue started, coughing a little to change her tone of conversation. "Good afternoon, Ms. Feng Yi Lan. I have called you to ask if you are free today, can I come to discuss the things related to the Aurora Spring Season collection. Ahem! As you know I am going to be the face of your brand".

"…" Few moments passed by, but no response was heard from Yi Lan's side and for a moment, Li Xue almost thought of rechecking.

"Ms. Feng, are you still there?" she asked and to that question, Feng Yi Lan confirmed.

"Yes, I am still on the call. I was just checking my schedule. You know how busy I am sometimes. But today luckily, I am all free and for a coincidence, also driving the way to my company. So, Ms. Li Xue can come anytime and we can discuss the things" She said with the professionalism of the brand manager.

Silence fell over the call for a moment, which soon broke off with a huge rumble of laughter of the two women.

"Fine, fine, reach your company. I will be there soon" Li Xue said, enjoying the moment with her friend, before disconnecting the call.

While at the same time, in Cygnus International School, claps of enthusiasm rang in the air as the principal ended her speech of gratitude in the auditorium stage. Her eyes scanned to look around only to find the cheerful smiles on the faces of the students. Of course, studying anywhere around the world on attaining a scholarship was both the topic of pride and also a great career. Excitement was bound to come on this news.

After the things were announced, the students were guided back to their classes while the principal got down the stage to thank the man again. "Mr. Feng, thank you for the efforts you are making for our students. Seeing the smiles on their faces, I can say they are highly motivated for the future. And we believe, their motivation is something on which their career depends".

She said and Feng Yu Hao simply nodded in understanding of her words. His eyes looked around in search of someone that was not present. "This must not be the total strength of the school, right?" Suddenly he asked, reverting her gaze back at the woman with a slight suspicion.

The Principal did not understand the question for some time, but then understanding it she quickly said, "Oh no, no, President Feng. This is not the total student strength of our school, but rather the fraction of the secondary section. I have only invited them to hear about the scholarship because our school only provides scholarships to the high school students. For the junior school and the middle school, they still have time and opportunity to show their merits."

The regulation was not wrong to be revoked. So, the man could only agree to it. "I see. That's a good regulation to follow". He said, his voice trying its best to hide the disappointment away.

Earlier, he had planned to visit the little girl in the school without making it obvious that he was there for her, but now seeing all his efforts turning futile, he no longer felt it was possible.

"Since it's settled here. I will make a move then. For further things, I will order my assistant to come and do." He said before turning to leave. The Principal also let out a breath of relief but right at that moment a staff came to whisper something in her ears.

Hearing him the Principal looked doubtfully at him but seeing the staff nodded with confidence, she nodded in agreement too, before halting the man with politeness. "Mr. Feng, a second please!"

Feng Yu Hao paused in his steps, turning slightly with his brows wrinkled. The woman didn't delay her words more before walking to him. Bowing a little in apology, she said, "Sorry to stop you like this. But there was a request I wanted to make, only if Mr. Feng is comfortable with that".

"Proceed!" Feng Yu Hao plainly said, giving the permission.

"Mr. Feng, if you have time, then can you please spare some on one of our students? She has been asking about you everyday and will really be happy if she gets to meet you today".

The old man was all confused at the words. "Asking about me every day? Who is the student?"

The Principal smiled heartily before saying, "It's our junior class kid, Li Wei, who got the star award in the debate competition last time. She has been visiting my office lately to ask if there will be any time, you will be visiting the school again."

She said and the man felt his heart getting poured with happiness. A smile appeared on his facial features as he asked to confirm. "She has been asking about me? Everyday?"

The Principal nodded. She didn't know what matters were going on in the family that was making the school as the place for the grandfather and granddaughter to meet. But whatever it was, the one thing about which she was sure was that she was not at the place to question.

"Okay then, I have time. If she is not having any important classes right now, I would love to meet her." Feng Yu Hao said without holding back. Though his words and excitement were slightly out of his character, he didn't mind it, given that he was finally there to meet the little one for whom he has come to the school in the first place.

"I will check and bring her, Mr. Feng. You can wait in the waiting room till then" The Principal said before signaling the school staff to go and check, while she went to guide the man his way to the waiting room.
