Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

In the past, the former patriarch of the family was least in the favour of his son, Qi Shao Jin. The reason was the lack of proper attitude in him and also the capability. The old man knew that if given the position of the family patriarch in the hands of his disgraceful son then, the name and reputation he has made all these years would come to a pathetic ruin.

So instead of giving the authority to him, he bent to handover it to his elder grandson even when at that time Qi Shuai was in his teenage years. But to the unfortunate luck of the old man, he could not coax his grandson to take the title, instead, he heard him proposing the idea of giving up everything related to the Qi family, including the family name as well.

With many difficulties, cries, requests and almost giving up his life, he could only coax him to carry the title of Qi with his name. But could not stop him from falling out from the family.

Years ago, when the old man died, Qi Shuai left the family on his own and never returned. But because of the love of the old man for his dear grandson, the whole family still could not forget his name and importance.

Though Qi Shuai has never accepted anything from them, the old man still left a larger section of shares and properties in his name, which the remaining members of the family could never forsake. He even left one of his loyal men with the authority of the Vice-Chairman of the company, so that in the later years none could take back the rights and authorities he had given to his grandson.

But it was Qi Shuai who never cared for any of it. When he said, he would sever all his ties with the family, he meant it with his heart. He was the man of his words and that was one of his qualities that pricked Qi Shao Jin the most. 

The name and money for which he and his sons have run wild all their life, Qi Shuai has easily gained on his merit. Not only name and money, but he has also got himself a friend that none could afford on their side. For a moment, he even envied his son for the capabilities he held.

Why were his other two sons not as capable as him? What was the difference between them? All three share the same blood of him yet the two he got in his pocket were nowhere near to the shadow of this unfilial kid. Only if they were also the same as him then he would not have to be in trouble every next day.

There was both loss and envy in the eyes of Qi Shao Jin. But when did Qi Shuai have cared for his losses? He had never! And he would never!

Getting impatient with his presence in the same room as him, he asked, "CEO Qi, if there is nothing, don't give that look to me? Your face has been the last thing in this world that I would prefer to look at. So, please kindly not give me a hard time by coming and standing here like this".

He said and his words only made the man grit his teeth and clench his fist. "Your condition is like this. Come home with me. Many people would look after you there." He said, suppressing the rage he was filling inside.

Though his expressions might not have shown, every insult that has come his way was enough to make him urge this world into destruction. But then again what powers do his urges have to bring any change. It hasn't got the strength even to blow away a lifeless leaf, forbid the talk of putting the world into chaos.

Qi Shuai was taken aback by the sudden suggestion of the man. His eyes turned to gaze perplexedly at the man, before giving out a mocking laugh of disbelief. "Wait! What? Did you ask me to accompany you to your place? Haha … from when did CEO Qi get the heart of a father to care for me like that. A person who can't even be called a human or a man, it's quite amusing to see him behaving like a father who is sincere towards his gene sharer. Isn't it, Shufen?"

Qi Shuai mocked, laughing out at the man. But then his expressions turned severe all of a sudden as he asked, "What is your real reason behind proposing such an absurd idea, CEO Qi? I am sure it can't be what you are trying to show at the surface".

"…" Qi Shao Jin paused. His eyes stared at his son but he didn't intend to say anything more.

"Let me hear the real reason, and I might think of helping you, CEO Qi. Or else, you can just dream standing here and I would think of some other way to get myself spared from your toxic presence." Qi Shuai said, slightly gritting his teeth. Only he knew how troublesome it was for him to see the man who has been a monster to his mother all her life. To see the evil who ruined his mother's existence in this world. His fingers clenched as he remembered the lifeless face of his mother that was still engraved in his memory. 

As if reading his thoughts already, Feng Yi Lan on her own went to hold on to the clenched hands of Qi Shuai to calm his nerves down. No one would know but she knew well how badly this man known to be his father affects him and the stability of his mind. And at this point and given to his health, she didn't want him to take any stress.

Qi Shuai turned to look at her. His expression was somewhat of a surprise. As if he has not expected her to come and stand by his side like this. His lips slowly curled to give a smile of gratitude to her.

The small exchange of expressions between the two didn't miss the eyes of Qi Shao Jin. Squinting his eyes at the two for a moment, he said with a slightly intimidating tone that was asking for no alternation in the plans he was proposing, "I have set you up with the elder daughter of Liam family. Come home and meet her once, so that we could proceed with the wedding, without wasting any more time". He said, eying the intertwining fingers of the couple at the front.
