Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

After the crowning ceremony was done, Li Xue stood at the podium to deliver her speech and oath. Since the ritual of coronation was not something simple and easy, it took time. 

Although everyone held their full concentration in Li Xue’s speech, most of their intention was to find even the minutest mistake in it. But Li Xue didn’t give them the satisfaction of it. Her words were fluent and measured. And not for once she stammered.

Everything got carried out too well.

And soon the interest of WeiWei also worn out. Sitting on the chair, she started feeling bored and her eyes started darting everywhere. She was tired but she wanted to go back home together with her mother, so she looked around to get something to drink instead. 

When Feng Shufen saw her eyes moving around in search, he asked, “Do you want something?”

The little girl at once turned to look at her father. Blinking her eyes she paused for a moment, she nodded. 

Feng Shufen darted his eyes towards the buffet area that was set in the garden area and asked, “What do you want? Pastries or fruit juice?”

Knowing her preferences, he could already guess the options she was looking for. 

Pouting her lips out, she pressed her finger down on her chin. “WeiWei has not gotten any chocolate this week. So, can she have extra of it this week?”

“Chocolate pastry it is.” He confirmed and the little one nodded her head profusely. 

“Mhm. The most chocolaty one.” She said as if she had already figured out how many chocolate pastry options were there. 

Feng Shufen stood up and adjusted his suit jacket before extending his hand out for her to hold. 

Understanding the cue, Little Li Wei held his hands and jumped down the chair, ready to walk out to the garden area with him. From the midst of the crowd in the room soon the father daughter duo walked to the garden area. 

After a while both of them returned with Feng Shufen holding a small plate of dessert and WeiWei sipping on the fruit juice. 

“Mhm! Daddy Angel, Kiwi juice is so refreshing. WeiWei never knew. She had always thought the orange juice was the best one but this is tastier. And Mama says that Kiwi is also healthy.” Little WeiWei spoke while continuing on her drink. Her expressions were enough to tell that she had found one of her favorites. 

Feng Shufen hummed to her and brought her back to the hall where now people were less formal towards the event. Since the rituals of coronation have almost come to an end, the remaining evening was left congratulations and small talk. 

Feng Shufen was about to walk past the crowd to get WeiWei comfortable at the table when out of blue a voice interrupted him. 

“President Feng, I must say you really make a great father. No one would have thought that a personality like you could be capable of that.” 

Although the first part of the comment was a compliment, the sarcasm in the tone was not easy to ignore. 

Feng Shufen turned to look over his shoulders and finding Su Ce standing there, he gave a poker look before looking down at her daughter. 

Li Wei blinked her eyes at him and Feng Shufen caressed her hair before getting one on his knees. “WeiWei, go back to the table where grandpa and your aunt are sitting. Sit there and have your pastry properly. Daddy Angel will be there soon.” 

He said and the little one nodded to him obediently. Feng Shufen got up again, asked a waiter around to help the little one with the plate of pastry, “Excuse me, help her to the table.” 

He asked before letting him take Little WeiWei to the table. His eyes didn’t leave the little figure until he saw Feng Yi Lan helping her up on the chair.  𝚗𝑜𝒱𝓮𝓵xt.𝓬𝗈𝗆

Once he was sure that his girl was in her comfort zone, he turned back to look at Su Ce, who was still standing there as expected by Feng Shufen. 

Feng Shufen’s tucked his hands inside his pocket and stepped forward towards Su Ce. It wasn’t intended but since Su Ce was not in hos sober self, even a simple walk of Feng Shufen was looking intimidating to him.

“Were you saying saying something, Mr. Su?” Feng Shufen disdainfully asked and not missing the tone of disdain in his words, Su Ce’s expression turned vengeful at it. 

Chugging on his drink, he tried to give out a chuckle of confidence but ended up crying a laugh of vulnerability. “Of course, President Feng. I was saying something. And do you think I have the power to interrup you if have nothing good to say? After all, now you are not just the powerful businessman who has kept the business world under his power and control but also the husband of our Crown Princess. People will no longer recognize you as as the President, rather you will soon recognize as the prince consort. Hope you won’t mind the change.”

Feng Shufen stared at Su Ce. His eyes turned cold and sharp and his change in expression boasted Su Ce. His words were intended to make Feng Shufen feel disgraced for being known by the name Li Xue. After all, being a man himself, he knew how hard it gets to a man’s ego. And seeing the change in the man’s expression, he knew Feng Shufen was no different. 

But just when he thought that he was successful in his attempt, the sudden but slow curl over the corners of Feng Shufen’s lips perplexed him. Before he could understand that that smile was for, Feng Shufen rubbed his nose with some pride and accepted. 

“Thank you, Mr. Su. There is nothing to mind about the coming change. Instead, I feel I will be honored when that day comes. After all, you know very well that not everyone is capable of getting the title of Prince Consort.”
