Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Feng Shufen's expression drastically changed as he looked at the text that beeped on his phone. His features clenched while a wave of bloodthirst rose in his eyes as if he was ready to go out for a mission of deadly slaughter.

Seeing his expression suddenly changing so severely, even Li Xue was taken aback. He has never ever let her see even a line of anger on his forehead, just slight darkness of displeasure was enough for her to see. But today was actually different.

First, the kiss at the parking lot, then his serious expression while discussing things with Gao Fan, Director Qi's extra strange behavior at the hospital, and last but not the least, the mood swings of the devil at home. There was definitely something odd that she was unknown about.

She was still sitting comfortably on Feng Shufen's lap, very close to see every inch of change in his expression. "Did something happen?" She asked softly but concernedly. And just as her voice hit the man's senses, his expression changed. Changed like the severity in his expression from moments ago has never been there in the first place. Li Xue also didn't miss it.

Feng Shufen shook his head as a pretense of a casual smile got over his lips. "It's nothing. Just a little company thing and I would have to take a stroll over to check". He said, reasoning his small trance off lightly.

Though his words were sounding very believable to ears, there was still something that was restraining Li Xue from believing him. She stared into his eyes for quite some time before nodding and jumping off from his lap instantly. "Since neither you, Director Qi or Gao Fan was here to look after the affairs, There must have been some issues needing your attention. Don't delay it and proceed."

Feng Shufen also looked at her for a moment before nodding and getting up. His gaze was a little relentless on her, knowing well the suspicion brewing in the woman's thoughts. But this was not the right moment to let her know.

Or more like to say, some truths stay more comfortable and rightful when not revealed!

After a moment when Li Xue thought that he would leave but instead of leaving, the man stayed rooted at his place as if he had no intention to leave anywhere anymore.

"What happened? Weren't you leaving?" Li Xue asked, not quite understanding his attitude. 

In response to her words, Feng Shufen simply extended his widened palms forward. "That wasn't a gift for you" His words getting enunciated very clear to her ears.

Li Xue was at once in the loss. All this while her hands have not forgotten to clasp the fingers tight around the pistol, keeping it securely in hiding. "But …"

"I have got a better one for you." Before Li Xue could start the negotiation, The man was already at the conclusion.

Her eyes shone as she chirped with somewhat greater excitement. "Better one for me? Have you got it custom-made? Has it got carved with my name on it, the same as this one has got yours on it". Li Xue's eyes have not missed the initials Feng Shufen's name imprinted on the pistol's metal.

Seeing the shine in Li Xue's ambers, Feng Shufen didn't have the heart to disappoint her. So he nodded before gesturing for her to give him the one she held in her hand.

Li Xue brought the pistol slowly in front. Then staring at it for quite some time, she agreed with a heavy heart and before nodding. "Fine, fine, I will give it to you but Mr. Beelzebub, you better not cheat me, later. I believe you have got a suitable pistol for me." She said, obediently returning the pistol back on the man's palm.

"Mhm! Very suitable one!" The man nodded in confirmation before tucking back the pistol on his waistband.

On the other end, everything was a mess. There was an expression of unease and trouble on the face of Gao Fan. His composure seemed to weaken where it felt like he was on the brink of losing all his patience while at the same time his gaze also was torturous to the people around him. He has already informed his President of the issue here but has not received any response in return.

"Were you all joking here? How does this even happen with so many of you around?" Gao Fan's cold voice rang in the air, making everyone almost choke on their breath. This anger was not unknown to them. Though it was rare, almost everyone has known it in their lifetime.

"L-Leader Gao, w-we were at fault for not staying alert. B-But you have to believe us, the intruders were different and we have never expected someone that skilled, appear that suddenly. We even …" Someone from amidst the group tried to explain in defense but the very next second, his voice was snapped shut with a death warning.

"Say that again and you will regret the death you will receive the next second". Gao Fan snapped, looking gravely at the man who had dared to speak up in his fault. And the next instant was deadly silent, enough to make the hair rise on everyone's skin. "Skilled! Do you not fear saying such high words for your enemy, when it was not actually their skills but your all insights responsible?"

"But Leader Gao…"

"Stitch up! Getting trained so much meticulously, how does this even occur to your thoughts that someone else was more skilled than you? Would you dare to say the same in front of President Feng? Tell him that someone just entered our base and took away the person we have kept on the arrest?" Gao Fan continued venomously making a shrill of fear creep on everyone's spine.

Dare to say to President Feng? Would that not mean calling for a torturous death? They wouldn't dare even in the last breath of their last life.

Just the thought of it was enough to make them shake in a position like a leaf that was about to give away its life in the next second. But it was already too late for them to consider that. Just a screeching sound of a car halting was enough to blow away their souls out of their bodies.

President Feng was here! Now they were all dead meat!
