Chapter 246 - Planning To Rebel Against Me?
Putting up an excuse of an urgent phone call, Su Fai left the restaurant finding the best time for himself. Since he has already lost his second chance with the woman he can only accept it and move on. Sometimes, time plays a great role in helping you achieve what you want.
Not everything is written in one's destiny. Sometimes your fate too follows the rule of first come first serve. Back in the past, he lost his chance because he left before the time and in the present too, he lost his chance with the woman because he got back too late.
Though the regret in his heart will never die down but he will remain happy seeing her beside such a doting and capable man. Being a man, he could never fail to read the gestures of the other man.
Although Feng Shufen held an air of mysteriousness around himself, still Su Fai did not fail to read his action of love and care he was showering on both the mother and the daughter. It was a gesture of selfless love that can even be seen by a person without eyes.
Seeing him like that made him feel inferior, not because he was nowhere capable to stand in front of him but because of the difference in intentions, they have behind their love for the woman.
However, he wanted to deny the selfishness inside his heart, his reason behind his liking for the little girl from the start has been because he wanted Li Xue in his life.
But in the cold eyes of Feng Shufen, he could clearly find the real adoration for the little one, the love that only a father of a child was capable of giving. It was nothing related to the aim of coveting the woman, using the child.
Something that was really rare to find in men in this world, who were known to be an egoistic being. 'To love a woman over his own selfishness is not in everyone's power'.
Back inside the restaurant, the air was no more tense and chaotic. It felt like the man had already achieved what he wanted. There were no traces of any anger left on his expression … like all the sourness and bitterness in his mood has long subdued. In fact, he looked in a good mood. There was a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Do you want to order something more?"
As he asked, his eyes tenderly looked towards the woman. Coming to the room the second thing he noticed was that none of the dishes on the table was as her preferred taste. Spending his time with her he has already come to understand that she likes to have spicy food more. But everything here was mild and plain, something that his sister liked.
Li Xue was stunned silly when heard him ask this. After all she has faced from the evening, does he really think that she will have an appetite to have more food? How can she even think to order more food, when she was already finding it tough to complete the food served already on her plate. Her friend was already looking for an opportunity to pounce and strangle her to death.
When Feng Yi Lan heard her brother being so warm to her friend, she almost thought to make a phone call to get an appointment for an ear specialist but halted herself remembering that this was not the first time of him showing this side in front of her.
Last time during the family dinner too, she has seen him getting this warm and doting mentioning about his girlfriend.
Wait! Wait! How could she forget about such an important thing? Didn't he say that he already has a girlfriend then why was he openly flirting with her friend?
Maybe the revelation was too harsh for the young maiden or she was really desiring to wake her bad luck; that without her realizing, her brain cells started malfunctioning. Uselessly contemplating and assuming the facts that were already proved to the confirmation just moments before.
"Brother, what is all this? You just ruined my best friend's blind date. And here you are asking her if she wants to order something more?" Yi Lan almost yelled in frustration, standing up on her feet. Her eyes narrowed to glare at his brother for spoiling her plans.
Li Xue almost face palmed herself not knowing what suddenly again her friend was starting. And that too on her brother? Wasn't this should be her fault for not telling things to her clearly?
Feng Shufen did not say anything. He remained seated at his place as he left his chopsticks back on the bowl. Wiping off his fingers and lips, he raised his face to look at her sister, who was clearly asking for the punishment.
Not commenting any of his words to reply to her questions, he simply raised his brows at her asking her to explain more.
Huffing with arrogance, Yi Lan continued her words putting her hands on her hips and Li Xue literally wanted to find a hole to hide herself in the ground.
"Yi Lan, listen to m …" she tried but her friend was too adamant on her stance to hear her out.
"Li Xue, you better not say anything now. You are not off yet. I will deal with you after I am done with my brother".
Hearing her words, Li Xue could only sigh and laugh internally. She knew her friend would be crying over the confidence she is daringly presenting at this moment.
"This is definitely not fair, Brother. I have set Li Xue here for a blind date and you ruined it coming here. I know that I have used your name to book this place but can that not be understandable enough?"
"If you really wanted to dine then you could have gone to some other better place. It's not like your name has got any limit to be used" Yi Lan dumped all her frustration out in one breath but there was still some clearance left.
"And what was with that line of yours, 'can't choose anyone else over you'? Didn't you already have a girlfriend? I know you are good but there are good admirers in her list too. I will seek justice for them. Will let her see their …"
Before she can even get to complete her words, Feng Shufen let out a low growl that made Yi Lan flinch in sudden terror. Has she overstepped her limit?
"Setting up my wife for a blind date … are you planning to rebel against me!" he hissed at her.
Wife? What the hell?
"Who is …"
"Dare to question my words and I will make sure that you have a good tour to cities all around the world where you have got your brand stores located," He said, pressing his lips in a thin line.
"You better not try any such thing!" At this moment a soft but stern, challenging voice interrupted the man's words without any prior notice. This was unexpected but was something that amused the man.
Li Xue's eyes had suddenly darkened and arms were crossed at her front. Her glare was clearly intended to threaten the man.
