Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1310 Let everyone know that I am alive and not yet dead.

　　”Mr. Driver, you are already back? I thought you must still be resting at home. How are your wounds now?” After a long silence in the car, Li Xue wasn’t able to hold it any longer. So, starting a small chat with Du Fan, she enthusiastically asked. Her voice came soft enough to not interrupt her sweetie’s sleep in her embrace. 

Du Fan was at first dumbfounded, but then understanding what the lady was up to, he said, “Madam, my rest period is already over, and since my wounds are already healed, I thought to join back immediately. But when I reached the house, I came to know that you and young miss have already left. So, I thought about reporting my arrival to the Young Master in the company. Since I would be joining you tomorrow, Young Masted asked me to drive him today.” 

He said, and Li Xue nodded to him with a smile. But her eyes were looking at Feng Shufen from the corners. She thought he would also say something but when found him still not speaking, she reached out his hand and asked, “Are you alright?”

Feng Shufen turned to look at her and nodded, “I am fine. Were you saying something?” he asked and this was the very first time happening when Li Xue said something and he failed to hear it. 

Although Li Xue didn’t mind it, she smiled to shake her head to highlight it surely, “You seem too engrossed in your thoughts. Want to share your plans with me?” 

Feng Shufen was about to reject her idea but then was caught up by the emotion in her eyes and smiled to say, “There is not too much that I have in my plans. It’s just that I no longer want to bother her. Your father said it right. I won’t be able to search for her until she allows me to. So, why care. I am already relieved to know that she didn’t die that night. Since she is alive and happy away from us, then it’s better that way.” 

He said and even though his words were satisfying enough, Li Xue could hear the sadness he hid within it. She felt bad for him. If she had not known how much he was doing to search for his mother, she would have believed that she was thinking too much. But since she knew, she also was aware that at the moment, Shufen was just trying to make himself believe that his mother was purposefully staying away from him. 

She wouldn’t be in haste to blame his mother, because she might have her reasons. After all, being a mother herself, she knew that staying away from the kid you birthed, was harder than anything in this world. 

”Since it’s something you have thought of, it must be perfect. I support you. Furthermore, I believe that soon you will be able to meet your mother. After all, there seems no other reason for her to be here. She must be finding a good occasion to meet you. You just have to wait for her patiently.” 

She said, trying to calm his tensed nerves. But her effort like that only brought a smile to the lips of Feng Shufen. He reached out to tuck a wild strand of hair behind her ears as he assured her, “Don’t worry, I will get better once I think about it through. You don’t have to get worried for me.”

Li Xue pouted her lips out. “How could you say something like that? You are my husband. If not you, whom should I get worried about?” 

And with her words like that, Feng Shufen couldn’t help a flutter of laughter. It came before anyone could even realize it. Li Xue finally was relieved. Seeing the man laugh like that, she finally believed that soon he would get over his things. 

”Am I making it difficult for you?” He asked and Li Xue raised a brow of confusion at him. On which, he added to explain, “Being worried like this must not be quite comfortable?” 

”Indeed. It’s not comfortable. Who would like to be worried about someone? But since you are my husband, I have to take responsibility for you. So, it’s okay. Also, it’s just me who deserves to be worried for you. So you better not forbid me from it.” 

Feng Shufen nodded. “I won’t. I will just try to keep you less worried. Will that be okay?” 

Li Xue looked at him and nodded. “Yep, that would be better.” She said with sternness but soon the strictness of her expression was wiped off with a smile that crept on her lips. 

Du Fan at the front was also eased. Although he didn’t know what had happened, seeing the silence in the car earlier, he could tell that there was a matter that was keeping the couple stressed. He was happy that the lady had a way to ease it. 

Feng Shufen looked down at the little piece who was sleeping comfortably in her mother’s arms. “Give her to me now. Your arms must be hurting.” He said before leaning to scoop her in his arms. 

The little girl twisted when her position was changed but soon she once again got comfortable in her Daddy Angel’s arm when realized that it wasn’t any foreign embrace. 

”She wanted us to have ice cream together. And she is already asleep. What do you think?” He asked, not forgetting their plans for later evening. 

Li Xue shook her head, “We can make it another day. She is already asleep. Furthermore, I have already explained this to her earlier. She had agreed to shift the plan for next time.” She said and the man nodded to her, before gently moving his hands to caress the little girl’s hair.

On the other side, after Li Xue and Feng Shufen left, Shin Tingming was the first to pull out his phone to make a call. 

When Chen Rui saw him dialing a number, she turned to check the time on the clock. It was quite late already and it was very unusual of him to call someone this late. So, she asked with a tug of confusion, “Is there something? Who are you calling this late?” 

Shin Tingming didn’t explain much, but since she has asked him, he briefly said, “I am calling Yuchun.” And then saying it, he turned to walk back into the living room. 

Chen Rui didn’t understand his intention behind calling the woman this late. She was about to ask him what it was about but before she could, she heard the call getting connected and she halted. 

Shin Tingming also heard the woman speaking on the other side and said, “Yuchun, I think it’s time for you to come in front of everyone now. Shufen knew all along that you didn’t die in that fire. He has been looking for you ever since then. It’s been hard for him and I think he deserves to see you now.” 

He said and the woman on the other end of the call didn’t seem to speak anything, which only made the man frown. “Yuchun, are you even hearing me? I said …” 

”Did you already tell him that I am here?” She suddenly asked and Shin Tingming paused in his words. His eyes stared at his wife, and after a moment, he didn’t deny her suspicion and nodded. 

”Yes, after such long years, he deserved to know. So, yes, I told him that you didn’t die that night and that you are somewhere near.” 

Chen Rui didn’t know anything about this. So, when she heard her husband, she asked with a frown, “You told him that? Didn’t we decide to support Yuchun in her plan then?” 

”Her plan is not interrupted. She has grown strong enough now. Even if Feng Yu Hao want to get her back, he wouldn’t be able to reach her or compel her with anything. As for that Zhen Qinrou; she was neither strong in the past, nor did she gain any power even after living in the Feng family all these years.” 

Shin Tingming said but Chen Rui didn’t look quite satisfied with it. “But Tingming …” She wanted to speak something but seeing the man all firm in his stance, she didn’t find any further word to say. 

While on the other side, Yun Yunchun didn’t seem to be quite affected by it. It was like she already had plans for it. And the early revelations didn’t change much. 

When Shin Tingming still didn’t hear her saying anything, he asked, “What are you planning, Yunchun?  Were you also planning …” 

”Tingming, I won’t blame you for breaking the promise because  I know you have held it for longer and have also looked after my children in the shadows. If you have revealed it today, there must be a good reason for it. Don’t worry, you said it right. Now, there is no reason for me to remain in hiding. I will come out soon to let everyone know that I am still alive and not yet dead.”
