Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

"What are you saying? How can I go to reveal things to him? I mean won't it …" Lin Xinyi was simply not able to accept that one suggestion.

At her doubtful tone, the woman on the call instantly asked, "Why? Why can't you reveal it, Ms. Lin? Don't say you are still thinking what Feng Shufen would be thinking of you when he comes to know it."

"I …" Lin Xinyi didn't know how to reason that.

No, as promised, she has long moved on in her life. She has long given up on the crazy feelings she has once felt for the man. But still, she doesn't know why but internally she could just not accept her going and revealing all that to Feng Shufen.

How could she just go and tell him that five years back when he rejected her, she went crazier for him? Crazier to an extent where she all readily accepted to impregnate herself with his child. So that later she could force him to marry her.

How could she go and tell him that even though she had not sinned against him, she still became indirectly responsible for whatever happened with him five years back? Even that deadly accident he got involved in and almost lost his life.

How could she go and ruin her non-existent existence image in his eyes? Even if it was non-existent, in her heart it was still something precious to her which she doesn't want to lose.

Maybe the lady on the call also understood the thoughts going on inside her. Because without even Lin Xinyi much saying about it, she helped her sort her feelings out, "Ms. Lin, I have known that in the past what were your feelings about him. But you need to make clear of it in the present. Since you have moved on from that phase of immaturity, grow up to accept it as well. That will make it easy for you to actually lead a happy life."

She said and Lin Xinyi didn't find any words to deny her. "I will try but for now …"

"For now, you don't have to stress over that. Live your usual life and don't think of Zhen Qinrou. She won't be able to do anything to you. You are protected well under my guards. But they are just there for the safety of your life. As for your mental safety, you have to work on that yourself. If she comes to you again, you can threaten her the same as you did today. And if she still bothers you, you can turn your threatening into reality to make her give up fully. There doesn't seem any problem with it until you are on the safe side. Look for your safety. That's one thing that should matter to you."

Before Lin Xinyi could say anything in affirmation of those words, the beep of disconnected rang in her ears marking the end of the call. And alone in the house, she was left to contemplate on the things.

Maybe, yes, it was the time for her to make clear of the things. To decide her clear priorities.

While at the same time, at some unknown but well-kept villa,

After disconnecting the call, the woman stood up from the couch to make a call while walking ahead in the direction of the window first before walking to stand near the dresser.

"Help me keep an eagle eye on Zhen Qinrou. I want a report of her every action even before she does it." She ordered on the call before disconnecting it again straight away while turning to look at her reflection in the mirror at the front.

"Zhen Qinrou, Zhen Qinrou! I never thought that you still have not learned from your failed past. Even after one after the other collapse of your plans, you still hold the guts to plot another. I must say you got perseverance like no other."

"But what's the use of perseverance when you couldn't learn anything from your past experiences? Even after losing every time, you still think that maybe the other time you will be receiving success. But sigh, haven't you expected too much from yourself?"

"How could you still think that you could plot against my children and I would allow you to do that? Even if I, Yun Yuchun, have been dead in that fire twelve years back, my soul wouldn't have allowed you. Then how come I allow it when I am still alive?" She said as her eyes stared at her face in the mirror. "It's been so many years Qinrou but neither you have changed nor have let me change. Neither you have lived in peace, nor you have allowed me to live in peace."

"But now, I think I have had enough. It's time to teach you the conclusion once and for all. Even if it means to confront you all openly." She said and her eyes glistened with the determination that was promising several things wordlessly.

At the same time, soon Du Fan drove Li Xue back to Our Paradise. His eyes looked at the lady but again failed to comprehend what was wrong with her. Though she doesn't look upset, she also didn't look like her usual self.

"Madam, we are here." He announced after much thought. To which, Li Xue gave a simple plain smile before nodding at him.

"Thanks for driving me back, Mr. Driver. You can rest as well. I will inform you about my tomorrow's schedule later." She said before pushing the door open to leave. But when she was about to walk out, Du Fan wasn't able to control himself anymore.

Halting her, he couldn't help but ask with concern, "Madam, is there something wrong? You don't look like your usual self. If there is something you can tell me. I will try my best to help you."

Li Xue scrunched her brows with confusion when heard him say that. Then turning to look at the mirror, she asked, "Really? But there is nothing wrong with me. Thanks for asking Mr. Driver. But don't worry, I am fine. If there would be an issue, I would surely reach you." She said before giving a smile to leave.

Though she has said that she was fine, the driver could see that wasn't the case though. So, thinking about it for a moment, finally, he took out his phone to report. He was not just the driver to the lady, but his Young Master has also asked him to look after her in his stance. Since she was upset about something today, it would be only better if he reports it to Young Master at right time.
