Chapter 245 - Won The Battle With Narcissism.
Shufen shot a look at Li Xue and the woman instantly knew that he was upset with her. Li Xue felt confused. Did Mr Beelzebub know about this blind date? How and when?
She was about to ask him but the man did not give any time to her. Moving his eyes back at his little piece, he simply asked, "Did you have your dinner properly?"
Little Li Wei shook her head and it took only a few strides for the man to carry her inside the room back at the table. Not caring about the looks her sister was giving to her, he made sure to take his place just beside his woman.
"Bro – Brother are you going to have dinner with us?" Feng Yi Lan asked, still not knowing completely, what was going around her. She looked like a lost kitty who has no idea which direction she should take to reach her home back.
The man did not make any complex comment. Keeping his expression straight, he simply said, "Didn't you book this reservation under my name?"
Feng Yi Lan was speechless. What else could she say to him? Yes, the reservation was under his name and he had full right to dine with them. But can't he see that his presence was already so intimidating that it will not let their appetite to jump and show their love for the deliciousness.
She was already shocked to see him so warm and considerate towards the little girl. She has never ever imagined him like this. Was this the same brother who has never cared to ask her if she had her dinner or was still starving? But now he was sitting at the table and serving food to Li Wei like feeding her properly has become the biggest priority of his life.
His actions seemed so swift and efficient that it was declaring his everyday diligent practice. And the little girl was also not in any bad. She was having everything the man was serving to her like they were all her favourites; forgetting that she still had her Mama and Aunt standing.
Suddenly looking up from his position, Feng Shufen asked, directing his words to Li Xue, ���What are you standing for? Have you had your fill of dinner already?"
Li Xue shook her head instantly in denial, "How can that be? We had just started with the main course when you entered". She said. He was already upset and she could not make him anymore. His calmness was already making her feel that there is a storm waiting on the other side.
Obediently taking her seat at the table, Li Xue tugged Yi Lan down along with her and gestured to Su Fai to take his seat too. The time which was planned to be fun turned to be dead silent like a graveyard. But no one cared about it.
Li Xue was already busy finding a way to coax her Mr Beelzebub who looked so mad that he did not care to glance towards her even for a second all this time.
Feng Yi Lan was still trying to contemplate the chances of Li Xue and her brother being together. Though she never wanted, still seeing the sides her Devil brother was showing was proving the chances to be more and more.
And Su Fai was in the worst case. He has seen himself losing the moment he had seen the possessiveness of the man over the two ladies. The glare which he shot to her already confirmed that there was no hope for him left again.
If it had been some other man, in place of Feng Shufen then he would not have accepted the defeat easily. But can anyone be more capable than the man sitting in front of him? The answer was a clear 'no'. Now he can only brace himself for the loss and move on.
Everything was passing in silence with the three people in their own different world. Every now and then, Shufen would pick some vegetables and put it in the bowl of Li Xue. He would not look at her and will make sure that she knew that he was upset with her, but would never let down his love and care for her.
Little Li Wei looked around, not understanding why suddenly everything fell silent. Suddenly looking at Su Fai, she remembered something as she turned to look back at her Daddy Angel and asked, "Daddy Angel, why don't you also ask Mama, out for a blind date?"
Li Xue was the first one to choke when heard her daughter directly reveal the things she was trying to hide from the man. Her hands instantly went to grab the glass of water in front of her.
Shufen's chopsticks halted up in the air but it soon regained its movement as his eyes went to look at the woman and then her sister. Knowing the meaning, he still asked, "Blind Date?"
Feng Yi Lan almost dropped her chopsticks when suddenly found her brother sending a brutal, bone-cracking glare in her direction, which was promising an unknown agonizing harm to her.
The little girl who was all unknown to these elder's things, nodded her head confirming her words to her Daddy Angel. "Mmm … hmm. Blind date! Like the one Aunt Yi Lan has arranged for Mama and Uncle Su Fai today. She said that if the things go well then Mama will choose him to be my father. But I want you to be my Daddy Angel always".
Li Xue never thought that her own daughter would sell her off like this. But again how can she not remember that when it's her Daddy Angel in the question, she can expect worse to come. She felt her heart skipping a beat when saw his grey orbs again piercing her amber ones.
"Choosing someone else over me? WeiWei, do you think that's a good choice?" the man asked, keeping himself focused on the dark amber shine.
The little girl, being her daddy's pet instantly shook her head in denial. "Nope! My Daddy Angel is the best one among all" she said, giving her long-drawn perception.
"Then there is no way your Mama will be choosing someone other over me. Your Aunt might have not known it yet but your Mama has not chosen the best for herself rather the Best has chosen you, Mama, on his own".
Li Xue was speechless. Was there something she could even say here? This man has won the game through narcissism.
