Chapter 346 - Let The Game Officially Begin!
Li Xue could only laugh and roll her eyes at the possessiveness of both of her Big Devil and Little Devil. "Both of your possessive antics are so similar. But never mind, if I get started on that right now, we would be late. So let's skip that part and get ready first", she said, looking at the two poker-faced people at the front.
"Mama, we are not possessive. We just want to spend more time with you since its weekend", WeiWei said, defending both herself and her Daddy Angel.
But Li Xue has come to know both of them better now. Nodding her head with a forced agreement, she blinked her eyes thrice and then pulling her lips with slight curl she said, "I believe your words, sweetie and I also believe that the pigs can actually fly in the air. Now, come, let me freshen and get you ready first so that I can follow the suite too"
"But Mama …"
"WeiWei, Aunt Yi Lan would be waiting for us and what have I told you about making people wait?" Li Xue stressed her voice soft and her daughter replied with all acceptance.
"That we should not make people wait for us and 'Punctuality' will always be a good code of manner for one to follow". WeiWei said and patted her Daddy Angel's shoulder, asking him to put her back on the ground.
"Daddy Angel, let's not make the pig fly. That would be a disaster. For now, it would be better to follow the code of punctuality or else Mama will leave us behind and we will be left alone in this house" the little girl said, winking her Daddy Angel with some hidden signal that only the two understood.
Feng Shufen understood her little gesture, to which he nodded to her and put her back on the floor. WeiWei looked at him for one last time and then pulling her expressions down to show her vulnerability at the scene, turned around to walk back to her mother mumbling her words in a light tone, that was audible enough to get in both her parent's ears.
"Sigh, WeiWei, you need to work hard. Your little brain is still not capable enough to understand Mama's reasons of logic"
The mother could only bring herself to shake her head at her daughter's act of devilishness. This little one is really …
When she came close enough, Li Xue picked her up in her embrace as she said, "I think WeiWei was right. She needs to work hard to improve. If only she could understand her mother, then she would have noticed that later in the evening her Mama was planning to take her to the 'Frozen Corner' to enjoy her favourite ice cream. But since …"
Before she could even complete her words, her princess's arms came to wrap around her neck, halting her words with a sudden force. "Of course, Mama! Weiwei understands you the best. If not me then who else could understand you this well in this world" The little girl paused for some moment. Her eyes wandered to look at the man standing at the side. After a short moment of ponder, she added with a smile, "Except Daddy Angel in the question!"
"Now will we have an ice cream treat later in the evening, Mama?" She asked, putting forward expectant eyes in front of her mother.
Li Xue did not reply. Pressing her lips together, she just looked at her and waited to see more of her dramatics. And to her expectations, her little devil soon blinked her puppy eyes at her as she asked, "My precious Mama, are you still not satisfied with your angel's words of buttering? Should I try something more good?"
The mother squinted her eyes at her to which little WeiWei tilted her head to both of her sides to read her Mama's expressions better. When read enough, she justified her reasons honestly, "Mama, why are you mad? I am just following your teachings. You said that we should always be honest with our words and intentions. So I was like that. Did I do something wrong?"
Li Xue was again rendered speechless. Were there any words with which she could refute her own said words?
At the side, Shufen, who had been witnessing it all could no longer control his chuckle. Bursting out once with a deep thunderous chuckle, he said, "It's always bitter to taste one's own medicine".
The woman glared at him but had nothing to say back. Reverting her eyes back at her daughter, she said, "You little devil, let's get ready first. We will see later if I have any mood to treat you to ice cream in the evening". She said and then turning her back to the man climbed up the stairs. But that was not before she reminded the man.
"Mr Beelzebub, if you want to come along, then better be ready before we are!"
Feng Shufen smiled behind after she left. How pleasurable and colourful his life has become with them around?
Right at this moment, his phone rang in his pocket. Pulling it out, he read 'Gao Fan'. His aura instantly changed accordingly, getting back to its dark, frigid side.
"…" Connecting the call, he did not reply, rather waited to hear the information from the other side.
As if it was nothing new, Gao Fan instantly understood the cue as he said, "Good Morning, President Feng! Sorry for my inefficiency in proper time management. Your orders took some time in execution and it got really late last night. I would have called you yesterday itself to give the needed update but noting that was quite late, I forbade myself"
"It's fine. Continue!" the man dismissed his secretary's compunctions as he asked him to move ahead with the details.
Understanding the command better, the secretary continued, "President Feng, your orders have been executed and the results have come as you have wanted. Zheng Industries will now be under our control without them knowing. We have accepted CEO Zheng's clauses and have already made him accept ours. Though he knew that signing a contract with us would not bring any help to them, still he accepted to give in to the demands we have created for their rough times".
"Hmm~" Feng Shufen simply hummed and then added in a tone that was evidencing the plan of ruin he had in his mind. "Now let the game officially begin!"
