Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Feng Yi Lan's lips tugged upwards when she heard the servant announce the arrival of Feng Shufen in the mansion. Maintaining that smile over her expressions, she turned to look at Feng Da Zhong, trailing a gaze to Zhang Xiaotong as well before shrugging her shoulders, "Aye, Third Uncle, what would you say now?" 

She said and Feng Da Zhong's fists clenched on his side. But before he could say anything, from a distance, Feng Yu Hao interrupted. "That's enough. Don't make a mountain out of a molehill." He said alternating his gazes between his daughter and his brother before looking at the girl. "Also, Xiaotong, since you are already here, enjoy the day with us." He said before gesturing to the girl to take a seat as well. 

Although, Feng Yu Hao, himself, was not in favor of Zhang Xiaotong's sudden appearance at the gathering; and he could already see through the intention with which the relatives have brought the girl. He also knew that now was not the time to talk about all that. Feng Shufen was already there and the servant has announced something about his arrival with the family. 

With information like that, Feng Yu Hao was already excited and he doesn't want to ruin the moment, he might get today with his granddaughter. After all, by the mention of the family, he was sure that his son might have brought her and he was already happy to see him making this initiative. Only if he had taken this initiative before he might not still be unfamiliar to the girl. But anyway, since he was still alive to meet his granddaughter, it wasn't too late. 

Feng Yu Hao thought internally as his eyes on their own went to look toward the entrance from where Feng Shufen might enter. While in the meantime, Feng Da Zhong also went to take back his seat. Zhang Xiaotong also walked along, but her expression was all ashen as if she was slapped countless times on her face with the truth that she doesn't want to believe. 

"Don't worry Xiaotong, we are with you. We won't let you suffer any injustice. Just have some patience and believe in us." Although embarrassed, seeing the girl unhappy like that, Feng Da Zhong couldn't help but coax her. After all, in the end, the girl was still a key of profit to them which they couldn't bear to lose. 

Zhang Xiaotong didn't say anything but, on her expression, it was already written that she was having a hard time controlling the tremor of emotions she was feeling inside. If this continues, she feared that she may not be able to handle it and retort for the meds that were in her bag, forgetting how hazardous they can get to her health. Her hold clutched her sling purse tight as she took her heat among everyone. 

Feng Yi Lan walked to take a seat beside Feng Yi Ran but that was not before sending a disdainful look towards her mother. Though she has not revealed it aloud earlier, she knew it already in her heart that in calling Zhang Xiaotong here, her mother was also involved. After all, no one can know her mother better than her. 

"Won't you want to sit beside your mother? See, she saved a spot for you." Seeing Yi Lan sitting beside her, Feng Yi Ran asked, gesturing to her to look at the empty chair beside Zhen Qinrou. But Feng Yi Lan just shook her with some disinterest before intentionally telling out loud enough to make the woman hear. 

"What's so great in sitting beside my mother? Sooner, I would get bored there. But it's a lot better to sit beside you, Elder Sister, at least sitting with you here, I may learn a few more sophisticated tricks to silence these overcontrolling relatives. What do you think?" She asked and shaking her head at her intentional words like that, Feng Yi Yan could only agree. 

Time passed by like that but no one appeared even after a moment. Whispers of the relatives were already in the air. Everyone was panicking, already seeing the failure of their plans near. But still holding hope in their heart, they were praying for their benefit. 

"Does Feng Shufen have really brought that woman to introduce to us today? What will happen to Zhang Xiaotong then?" 

"If that happens, she would be truly embarrassed and we would have no value in her eyes. I dare not think about the consequence it would bring. Furthermore, how are we going to face Mrs. Zhang after this?" 

"It would be all ruined in a blink of an eye. Not just the agendas we had for today but also the plans of profits that we thought for tomorrow. All will be gone." 

"Is there no way of saving our plans? Will we accept that woman just after she appears today?" 

Relatives talked in whispers among themselves when suddenly Feng Da Zhong took command as the representative leader of the relatives. "What are you talking about? Who is accepting just any woman here? We just have to stand firm in our decisions of not accepting her. He said and to his plan like that, others nodded. 

Feng Yu Hao's impatience grew as even after quite some time, no one seemed to appear at the entrance. His brows tugged in a frown as titling a bit to the butler, he asked, "Ask someone to check why Shufen has yet not appeared here? Hasn't he already arrived quite a moment before?"

The butler nodded before walking to the side to order a servant to check. But before the servant could make his way out to find the detail, the silence of the Devil's arrival already fell, announcing the presence of Feng Shufen on its own. 

Along with Feng Shufen, two other figures also walked inside, strolling just beside him. One was the woman with an elegant posture and the other of the little girl with a bubbly presence. Though the little figure standing beside the two adults was an eye-catcher, apart from her something else took people's attention off guard. And that was the presence of Li Xue at the scene. 

They could simply not believe her appearance here today. And above that, the look she was holding at the moment was also not something in which they have imagined her. 

"Is she the one?" People gasped at Li Xue's sight while some were still unable to match the coordinates of her personality. 

"Wasn't she the model working in the fashion industry? How come today she is looking like an elegant lady of high society?

"Are you sure her family background has nothing good? I mean looking at her now, it doesn't feel that she holds commoner's genes." 

The relatives started to doubt their own assumptions from all this while. And seeing them like that Feng Yi Lan couldn't help but wanted to laugh out loud. 

Who has the commoner's gene? Haha … what are they even talking about? Only if they knew the truth and only if she could reveal it, how fun it would have been. Her girl was an authentic high-breed royal personality whom none could even think to surpass.

But since she couldn't reveal that one thing, she would reveal what she could. After all, she was yet not satisfied, and she wanted to see people pay for even thinking that they could put some other woman in place of her Li Xue. 

So, with that intention in her mind, Feng Yi Lan stood up to direct her words of accusation at Feng Shufen, indirectly blaming all the relatives for the thing. "Brother, don't you feel that you took too late to bring your family here today. Your delay even gave the chance to some people to think that they have a say in your personal relationship. Do you know how hard it had been for me to make them understand about your sweet love for Sister-in-law? I don't know how successful I have been in it but now that since you are here, why not you take the initiative yourself?" 

She said and Feng Shufen looked at her understanding her intention all easily. He didn't bother to look at the relatives, instead, taking the hold of Li Xue's hands in his own, he walked inside along with WeiWei on his side to greet his father first.. "Father, I hope we are not too late for the gathering."
