Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

"Really? Did the issue become that big, Sister Margaret? But I thought Ms. Wu was just doing fine here. We rarely had time to see each other", Li Xue asked in surprise as her hands and eyes remained busy setting the platter. After returning home, she has barely taken any rest and has directly come to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Since she has already promised her daughter to celebrate the day with her, she has to make it up to her.

"Madam, you have been too kind to be ignorant towards her audacity. But her attitude has been something unsuitable for her position and job. She needed to know her place and Young Master just helped you teach her the lesson".

The old woman replied, standing behind the lady. Her aged eyes searched to see if she could come to any help. But Li Xue was too meticulous and systematic in her work. When she gets into the kitchen, she is like a full army on her own.

"Ohh!" When heard Sister Margaret say that, Li Xue nodded, taking the platter to arrange on the dinner table. Almost every dish was prepared and set ready for the feast. "But seeing them call an internal meeting like this, why does it seem like the matter is no longer as trivial as we think? Will it cause Shufen any trouble?"

Though Li Xue looked very relaxed on the surface, her tone was stating clearly that deep within she was worried. It was only after she returned home she got to know the lie that had brought the pitiful maid to her peril. She has really been ignorant, to be honest; or else how could she not see the lie the maid has weaved against her last night?

She doesn't pity her, but to some extent, she felt bad for her. It was not her fault, after all, she just became a pawn in the hands of the people who used her for their benefit.

"Madam, though the matter has not remained trivial since it has reached the relatives, still it would not have become something that serious. At the end of the day, the Young Master will easily handle it. Believe in him!" Sister Margaret said in a very optimistic tone and looking her so confident, Li Xue smiled. Her eyes grew slightly small with her curl of lips.

"Sister Margaret, finally you have returned. I have missed you so much. It's really a relief to see you back in the house".

The old lady reciprocated the warm smile as well but soon her head dipped down in a bow of guilt. "I apologize, Madam. It has been partially my fault to bring all this trouble. I will reflect on myself and try to not cause the same trouble in the future." She said out of politeness.

"Ah, how can that be your fault, Sister Margaret? Definitely, I should have been careful. Anyway, what happened was the past that has passed away. There would be nothing good in remembering it. I just hope things get solved peacefully and it doesn't cause any problems at the end of Shufen". Li Xue said, still slightly worried about the things.

Only if she had known the way to help the man in this, she would have already set her foot out for the job. But at the moment, she knew her appearance would only create another mess for him to clear.

On the other side,

Everyone at the Feng main mansion was taken aback. None knew how to react to the presented piece of news. For instance, they would have even thought to doubt it but then the reports presented to them at the spot were not something that they could dare to question. Things were all clear, yet it was just their mindset that was not believing it to be true.

Feng Yu Hao was also stunned. But the surprise and confusion didn't last for long on his expression. Because the moment when he thought it to be doubtful, the pretty face of the little girl and her intellectual talks hit his remembrance, giving him all the proof that was needed to make him believe it. He doesn't even need to look at the DNA reports to check it. He already accepted it.

Feng Shufen's eyes scanned around. Nothing was unexpected to him, it has been in his plan from the beginning itself. He was here to make everyone know the position Li Xue and WeiWei held in his life. And since now that he has done his job, there was nothing left in the place worth his time.

When everyone was busy reading and discussing the report, he stood up from his chair to leave. "Since it's all settled here, I would make the move first. I still have matters to attend to." He said giving a slight bow of respect to the head of the family, before sauntering out of the room at once, without turning back.

Outside, Gao Fan was waiting near the car for him to arrive. His expression was clearly serious as if he was standing at the edge, waiting to know his life report. When he saw Feng Shufen coming out, he sighed a deep breath out. But before he could walk forward to reach him, a call from behind halted Feng Shufen in his steps, making him turn around to the person who had arrived from inside.

"Little Fen, how did you keep such a beautiful secret from us. I already had a niece this big yet it's only now that I have come to know about her. Don't you think, you have been quite cruel. Especially to me?" Feng Yi Ran said, her eyes reading through the DNA reports while steadying herself in front of her brother.

Even though she didn't mean to check it, still when the paper travelled to her, she couldn't stop herself from taking a look, as if instead of some medical report it was the picture of the little girl, whom she was dying to look at.

Feng Shufen's long face didn't show any change. He just stared at his elder sister with some seriousness before saying, "It was never intended to be a secret."

"You dare to lie on my face now?" The woman's eyes squinted as she looked up grudgingly at her brother before shrugging it off. "Anyway, let's not talk about that now. That's unimportant. I followed after you here to not say all that but to inform you that since now, I have come to know about my niece, I want to meet her first. So, tomorrow get ready to introduce me to her. And also, I am excited to meet the woman whose tales have made your boring life so much fun and interesting".
