Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Looking away, Feng Shufen faintly chuckled, "Concession! Haven't he got that already?" He said, turning again to stare back at her. As if challenging her to guess.

"…" Li Xue looked at him but couldn't guess. So, giving up, she asked the man to reveal it himself.

"He is left alive to elope to a different country. Isn't that enough concession?" Feng Shufen nonchalantly revealed and an expression of smug got over his face like he was very proud of that.

Li Xue no longer knew how else to respond anymore. Blinking her eyes in a daze for a moment, she nodded accepting the fact.

Yes, that was enough concession to give indeed. After all, she wasn't expecting Wenting to do anything better doing here. It would only be good if he leaves the country and start anew.

"What? Aren't you happy?" Seeing the woman lost in thoughts, Feng Shufen asked, snapping her out.

Li Xue shook her head with a smile. "What's there to make me unhappy? Wen Sying was the friend whom I lost long back. And Zheng Wenting is the man that my heart was just infatuated with for once. They no longer matter to me. So, there is no point of being upset for them."

She said shrugging her shoulder, before continuing more with contentment. "It's just that now, I am feeling all relaxed. Like a heavy burden got uplifted from my shoulders."

Li Xue said and Feng Shufen stared at her face. Her words were true as her emotions and he could feel it all well. That was something he wanted for her. Putting her dark past to a complete end, so that the darkness from there never comes to haunt her in the present. A complete breakthrough from the past to the present and approaching future.

Seeing her smiling, his lips curled up contentedly as he reached to hold her hands with some warmth. Li Xue smiled as well at his touch, enjoying the moment, they got for themselves in silence.

They were enjoying their time together like that when right at that moment, a cherry voice came from a distance, filling the bubble of cheerfulness in the air.

"Mama! Daddy Angel!" The little stubby legs of the girl made their way in, sprinting like a light fluffy ball dancing in the air.

Li Xue turned to look at her princess who has finally returned home after a long day. "Easy, sweetie. Don't run like that. How many times have I asked you to walk slowly?" Chiding softly, she reached out to hold her princess from a distance, preventing her from slipping near the edges of the sofa seats.

Little Li Wei giggled looking at her mother worry. "Hehe … Mama, if WeiWei would not run to you then how would she reach you faster?"

"What's there to reach me faster? I am not running away from you that if you did not reach me fast you, might not reach me, sweetie. Be as much slow as you want, Mama would always be waiting for you." Li Xue said, helping her princess to remove her bag first, before placing her over her lap.

"Though WeiWei is not sure of the next time, Mama, she would still try to keep in mind to be slow." Nodding to her mother's words, the little girl didn't take time to agree to Li Xue. To her, her Mama's words were the promises. Since she has promised to wait for her always, wordlessly, the little one has also principled herself to always walk cautiously around. So that in no way she makes her mother worried for her.

Li Xue smiled, caressing her daughter adoringly. "Okay, then Mama will believe you. Now, tell me how was your day. And I have heard from Sister Margaret that you have asked her to look for a dance teacher. Do you want to learn dance now?"

Little Li Wei nodded immediately, but her eyes looked in deep thoughts. "Yes, Mama. WeiWei wants to learn dance. Can I learn it?" She asked with some sobriety before turning to look at her Daddy Angel to ask the same. "Can I, Daddy Angel?"

Li Xue's eyes at once went to exchange glances with the man. Not because she opposed the thought of dance but for the difficulty, she felt in the tone of her little princess. Like the little was trying her best to keep something secret from them.

In her little grey eyes, Li Xue felt something was different. Like she was holding back one part of her thought back and revealing only the other one out. It wasn't tough to notice it in her gaze since the little was the one she knows the best in the world.

Feng Shufen also felt something unnatural in the behavior of the little piece. Though she has turned to ask him, her eyes were blinking at him with a lack of confidence. And that was very unlike from usual times.

What was happening?

Smiling, Li Xue tugged her daughter's hair behind her hair and then said, "What's so difficult in dance? Of course, you can learn it if you want to learn."

"Really, Mama? Can WeiWei really learn it easily?"

"Of course! Why not?" Li Xue supported with full positivity. "But can Mama ask you what got you inspired for the dance? Are your friends also joining in? Or is there some school function that requires you to learn dance?"

The little girl looked at her mother and didn't say anything. Pressing her lips, she showed her intention as well. She was not in the mood to speak of it and Li Xue knew that even if she asks her a thousand times, her daughter would not be saying it until she wants to say it herself.

So, thinking about it for some more time, Li Xue rephrased her question to ask. "Okay, sweetie, if you don't want to say that, Mama will respect it. She will not ask you about the inspiration. But just a simple question you have to reply to. Without replying to that one question, you won't be able to learn it. So will you?"

The little girl looked at her mother with some thought, then with much pondering she noded. "What is that question, Mama?"

Li Xue smiled as finally; she was able to break the ice on the topic with her princess. Otherwise, she knew her daughter could get stubborn like no other.

"What dance do you want to learn? Have you thought of the style?"
