Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

The two ladies got perplexed hearing the little girl's words. She has clearly said that she does not want a father. Moments before, Li Xue had seen the desire to have a father in her eyes and she was sure of reading her little angel's eyes like no one else could.

But now she was hiding her heart from her own mother. Was she failing as a mother that her daughter does not want to let her know her soft heart feelings? Did she make it so hard that a little child was hesitating to show her needs and real feelings? Li Xue blamed herself.

Feng Yi Lan looked at her friend and gave an assuring nod, then reverted her gaze back to her chipmunk. Caressing her hair adoringly, she asked "Sweetheart, I thought that you would love to have a father like other children. But you said you don't want that. Do you not like to have your own Dad?"

Li Wei looked at her mother and her aunt, smiled and said with a slight giggle. "Aunt Yi Lan, I never said that I don't like to have my own Dad. I just don't need one at this moment."

Hearing her giggle and then the words, Yi Lan raised her brows and squinted her eyes on her, "Don't you play with words in front of me. I am not good at it" At the end of her sentence there was a childish pout on her face which further increased the little girl's giggle.

Since the girl was as fair as snow, with a slight golden glow on her contours; when she laughed her cheeks got into a shade of beautiful pink making her look much more beautiful and adorable. Her laughter was like a sweet melody to the ears.

Lifting her hands up, she gently held Yi Lan's cheeks to pinch her softly. "Aunt Yi Lan you are so cute, but a little less than my Mama. I am not playing and word games with you. Earlier when I said, I don't want a father that only meant I don't want it now. Because I know when time comes and Mama will find it necessary she will get one for me. Till then I have to be patient as Mama says, 'Patience brings the fruits sweeter'."

Li Xue and Feng Yi Lan, both were again dumbfounded at her words. What does that mean? Did she really think that her father was something that her mother would bring up whenever she found it necessary?

"Did my angel really think that I am that capable? How am I going to explain to her that the things do not work that way?" Li Xue thought in her head as she slammed her palm over her forehead.

Understanding the meaning behind the girl's words, Feng Yi Lan could not prevent a smile from coming on her lips. One thing was very apparent to her, this little daughter of her friend idolizes her mother like a fairy who was the most beautiful person in the world and whose words can never go wrong. A thought that was very rare among children of her age.

She was as different in the midst of the crowd, the same as her mother was rare and different in the whole world.

Giving a nod of agreement and caressing Little Li Wei's soft chocolate brown hair, Feng Yi Lan said "You are right, chipmunk. Patience will bring fruits sweeter and you will get the best dad of this world. I will make sure that your mother finds a good one for you. Have faith in your Aunt Yi Lan".

Saying her words, she casted her gaze towards Li Xue and raised her brows at her, expressing her words through her expressions.

Seeing her friend becoming as childish as her daughter, Li Xue shook her head and quietly sipped her coffee.

After they were done in the mall, the three people were on her way to return Little Carnations. Feng Yi Lan was in no mood of leaving her friend. She still has a fear lingering in her heart that Li Xue might disappear again. So she has come along with her to make sure of everything.

Though she knew her brother was living in the same housing society but there was no way, she could rely on him. Earlier she has just gone to ask for his help and he has been so cold and scary. She would never let her friend get in his line of sight.

She knew Li Xue was working in one of his restaurants but that would never create any possibilities for her to meet her insensitive demonic brother who only knows how to torture people.

"Yi Lan, please ask the driver to stop the car near house number 38", Li Xue said as the car drove in the housing society.

Without giving much thought to the information, Feng Yi Lan repeated the same words to the driver, "Driver, stop the car near house number thirty …" Before she could complete her words, her head juddered at the house number.

"What? You are staying at house number 38?" she asked all stunned.

Li Xue nodded and confirmed her words, "Yeah, they gave me house number 38 to live. Is there any problem?"

The woman didn't say anything but cursed her stars internally, 'Huh! I was happy that in no situation my friend was going to encounter my brother but look at the arrangements made by the demons of hell. She was living so close to him' She cried in her head.

There was not a hope in the hell in which she could prevent their encounter. He was bound to meet her even if the Archangel Michael got on her side. Losing all her hopes, she could only brace herself for the least damage.

She was cursing herself too. Why on earth did she go to seek his help today? If not, her brother would not have learned about Li Xue. Feng Yi Lan was sure, seeing her such obsession for a friend, her brother would have already asked his assistant to look at Li Xue's background.

Suddenly she started getting the heebie – jeebies with the thoughts of her brother and his ways that could easily ruin anyone. Her friend had already suffered a lot; she could not let that happen again.
