Novel Full Chapter 70 - Uncomfortable In Crowds.
The next day as decided, Feng Shufen and Li Xue went together to drop the little girl to her school. Li Wei was really happy with the start of the day. Two of her most favorite people were accompanying her to school. They were already driving their way to school in the man's black Maybach. She tilted her face to both of her sides to take a look and then said with a super smiling face.
"Mama! Since today is my first day of school, are you going to bring me out for ice cream like you did when I started my last school?"
When she heard her daughter mention this Li Xue smiled and nodded. "Yes, we will go after your day in school is completed. But remember only a small scoop, since yesterday you have got a lot of things in this little stomach of yours".
The little girl pouted with slight dissatisfaction but then nodded. She knew what her mother was saying was good for her health. "Okay Mama!" she said turning her face to look at her Handsome Angel and then added, "but will Handsome Angel also accompany us there? He …"
This time Li Xue did not let her complete her words. If she let her daughter be like this, then she doubts that very soon she will make him stay in the same house with them and that will become a really awkward scene for anyone's eyes.
"No Baby. You can't always make demands like that. What have I said to you earlier, we should always think about others too. You know he has work to do; we can't hold him back like this. I know you love to spend your time with him but we should also think about his work. It will only be right if we reciprocate fairly to the love and care we receive", she tried to make her daughter understand.
While she was saying all these words, she could feel the eyes of the man on her. She had a doubt that he will again go against her words and will accept Li Wei's wish. But to her surprise, he didn't do anything like that.
When looked up, there was only an expression of contentment on his face like she had said something that has satisfied him to the core. She was confused. Now what was running on in his devil brain?
The little girl too turned to look at him guiltily and then said, "I am sorry Handsome Angel. I will be better next time and will only spend my time with you when you are free. I won't burden your work"
Feng Shufen looked at her little pretty face. He couldn't deny his unknown attraction towards this little girl. A type of attraction where he just wanted to fulfill all her demands and wishes. But he can't always deny Li Xue's words too. That will only set a wrong example in front of this little piece. For her benefit, his words should run in synchronicity with her mother's.
Since he has already decided to set his mind and heart on this woman for his whole life, then he would also go with the process of best parenting.
"It's okay, little. You don't have to be sorry about burdening me. Though your mother's words are right too but also remember what I said to you yesterday. Those words can apply on anyone but not me. And about that ice cream, I will accompany you next time. Your mother is right, today I have some work to attend", he said to her patting her head lightly and then turned to look at the woman who was having an expression of amusement on her face.
But there was also someone else present who was surprised to his core. The driver, who has been driving the car, was shocked to hell. He has never thought that their boss was capable of saying such soft words to anyone. He remembered the little girl from before, and also the obvious similarities she shared with the President. He had doubts about which he was curious but now looking at the woman along then, the incomplete picture seemed to be completing on its own.
Looking at them like this, they look like an adorable family of three. But he can't be too audacious to speak out his words without thinking of his position. That will not only cost his job but also his life.
Soon the car came to a halt. They have arrived at the school. "Mama we are here. Let's go", the little girl said looking out, her eyes getting full of excitement without any trace of hesitation.
Li Xue smiled at her but subconsciously turned to look at the man who was looking out at the crowd. With one look at his apprehensive expression, she could tell that he was not the person who liked crowds. "President Feng, thanks for accompanying us here. But I don't think you need to come inside. I will just go and drop her by myself"
Feng Shufen looked at the crowd of people around. Many parents have come to drop their kids. Even looking at so many people from such a distance was making him feel uncomfortable. "No, it's okay. I can come along". Just by her tone itself, he can feel that she was concerned about something.
Li Xue looked at him, pursing her lips tight. 'This man has really pledged to go against my words. Can't he say that he is uncomfortable in crowds? Why he wants to force himself into it', she thought to herself.
"President Feng, your presence with us will only grab unwanted attention and can also affect you negatively, so it would be better that …", she tried her words in a way that won't sound awkward to him but the man interjected his words before she could even complete hers.
"I don't care. And if that is something that is making you feel awkward then you can sit here and I will go and drop her inside", he looked at the people around and added, "There are many people out, it will make you uneasy. Sit here comfortably and I will return soon"
Saying this he didn't wait and pushed the door open. Stepping out he scooped Li Wei up in his arms along with her backpack and carried her in. Li Xue opened her mouth to say something but that man has already made his way further away.
His back was still visible to her eyes. "Mr. Beelzebub! It's you who is discomfited in the crowd yet you asked me to stay in here", she yelled loud with a huff but her voice didn't go out of the car's door. In the process of doing so she almost forgot that she was not alone in the car. The driver was still there.
When she felt the staring eyes on herself from the rear mirror, she turned to look with an awkward smile over her lips. "That … I didn't intend to sound like that. I was just concerned, he would be feeling unpleasant there. Nothing extra".
She said and then paused to read the intensity of the situation again. After a short pause she said her words again, but this time it was to revert the whole situation. "By the way, I was curious about something. Is President Feng very doting to the children around?"
The driver didn't say anything and moved his eyes down politely. Li Xue understood that she won't be getting any answer for her questions.
At this moment suddenly she felt her mobile buzz with a text message. When looked, her eyes let glint of darkness and in just a few moments of time, the aura around her changed making her look a little fierce.
