Chapter 851 - The More The Merrier!
Seeing the man for once losing his composure with such ease, Jing Wei Jin couldn't help but smile. He remained in his usual demeanor as waited to play more. "Huh? So, what do you say, President Feng? Are you also ready for such a trade? For the sake of peace?"`
Feng Shufen's fists curled as his knuckles turned white. His cold grey eyes turned darker as the next second, getting up from the seat, he challenged. "For her sake, I could stir and win a war. Let me know when you are up for the challenge. That moment I wouldn't be liberal to give you the bait you have aimed for."
Jing Wei was really entertained to look at Feng Shufen like that. Though he had long spotted his weakness, he never thought that the spot would be this weak that even a playfulness like this would be capable of bringing such an instant reaction. He couldn't control a chuckle to come before standing as well, parallel to the height of the man.
"A war just with you will be really interesting and I will be patiently waiting for it. But same as you, I also think that today is not the day. Li Wei may call me her dear uncle, but I have always taken her to be my daughter. So, I will never want to put her in any harm. Let's plan for some other day". He said and at his words, Feng Shufen just maintained his expressions like his words meant nothing to him.
The air became still in the room but that stiffness in the environment didn't affect any of the men. They just stood there looking at each other dwelling in silence. But right at that moment, a cheerful voice from a distance tore away the tension in just one second.
"Daddy Angel!" Little Li Wei called and then leaving the hold of Li Xue's hands, she sprinted her way to reach Feng Shufen who was standing not too far away. Though the air in the room seemed a bit fearsome, that fierceness wasn't able to faze the shine and love the little one had in her eyes for the man.
Giving the best adorable smile, she ran on her stubby legs. Seeing her running like that to him, the frigidness that Feng Shufen held on his expressions melted away. His lips curled slightly at the corner as he added with light concern, "Watch your way. Don't get yourself hurt!" But before his words could even reach the full stop, the girl was already near to him, ready to get scooped up in her Daddy Angel's arms.
"Hehe … Daddy Angel, don't worry. WeiWei has been careful" Little Li Wei said, getting up in Feng Shufen's embrace, looking all happily at him. "Have you also come with Mama to pick me up?" She asked as her eyes shined with happiness before trailing to look in the direction of Li Xue. But the moment she looked her way, she turned back to look at Feng Shufen.
Feng Shufen noticed her swiftness as well but didn't say anything. Nodding, he accepted simply. "Mhmm! Did you enjoy your time here?"
Little Li Wei nodded meekly before saying in a lighter voice, getting slightly near Feng Shufen's ears. "WeiWei enjoyed her time with Uncle Jin. We had a lot to talk about. But it would have been a little more better if WeiWei would have asked Mama and Daddy Angel to come along as well."
She said, while her eyes again trailed to look back at her mother who was clearly waiting to let her know her wrong severely. She didn't dare to look at her at the moment, knowing about her mistake.
Seeing her like that, Li Xue could just purse her lips. Her little devil just knows how to bend things as per her comfort. How did she manage to have such a sharp-witted kid? She really doubted her own capabilities witnessing her like that.
"Aye, little cupcake, now there you are making your Uncle Jin feel abandoned. Didn't you say that you will never make me feel like that? Yet it only happened a few minutes and you are already here making me feel left out. Was I such a bore for you to spend your time with?" From the side, Jing Wei Jin asked and Little Li Wei turned to look at him with some doubt.
Pondering a little over his words, she thought for a moment before shaking her head in denial. "But Uncle Jin, I never meant it like that. A few days back in our school, our teacher took two class's students together to play in the playground. When we asked her about it, she said it was because it is more fun with more people around. We call it – the more the merrier! It's the same here as well."
She said. Her words were full of wittiness, tackling the situation as per her knowledge. "Furthermore if Mama and Daddy Angel would have also been here with me then they wouldn't have been worried seeing me missing from school."
Jing Wei Jin nodded with a smile. He knew that in front of the little one's tricky words, he would not be able to win, so he just agreed to her thesis as it was presented.
Feng Shufen also looked at the little in his arms. "Since you have played well here, now should we return home?"
Li Wei looked at her Daddy Angel, before nodding with a smile. "Yes, we should return to our home now. WeiWei has completed her homework but there are some doubts that I need to ask you. Also, WeiWei is missing her White Ears and others. They might be getting bored without me as well". She said getting empathetic for her friends back at home.
Feng Shufen looked at her adoringly and at this moment, Li Xue who had been standing behind as well came to them. Looking briefly at her little, she turned her attention to her man to add, "I also think it's getting dark outside. We should return home soon."
Feng Shufen looked at her and nodded. At the corner, Jing Wei Jin could not believe the scene happening in front of him. The scene playing in front of him didn't seem like a snippet from the story where the little girl went missing and her parents were worried for her. Rather it has turned into something that seemed more like a happy nuclear family of three.
Though their chemistry was soothing to his eyes, something was also making him feel envious of them. He looked at them with a smile but it was hard to tell what that smile was about.
Feng Shufen looked at Jing Wei Jin one last time before turning to look at Gao Fan at a distance with some meaning.. And just a look of his was enough to let the secretary know what the silent orders were about.
