Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Zhang Qian Lan didn't understand what her husband meant by those words but she was sure that something big might have happened to make him return on such a short notice of time.

She has been out of the city in the last few days, so she doesn't know what was happening around. But the moment she came back home, she was first to ask the butler about Zhang Xiaotong.

"Where is young miss? Go and ask her to come and meet me in my room." She ordered and continued to walk her way in. But from the corner of her eyes when she caught the butler still standing in his place, she stopped in her tracks to turn back to him. "What happened? I want to talk to her over some urgent matter. Go and call her fast."

She said it was then the butler bowed his head to say, "Madam, Young Miss has not been at home since last night. We have tried calling her but her phone is out of reach."

He said and the moment Zhang Qian Lan heard that her brows tugged in a frown. Descending back all the steps she has walked up, she asked again, "She has not been home for the whole night and why have I not been informed about it?"

"Madam, we have called you, but your phone was continuously coming off. We didn't know what to do so I even instructed the driver and some of the family guards to go and look for her. But they have not yet returned." The butler informed keeping his head low and it further enraged the woman.

Fidgeting through her contact list, she was quick to make the call, "Hello. Check what Xiaotong has been up to recently. Find her and get her back home." she ordered before disconnecting the call.

While on the other hand, after Li Xue returned home, WeiWei was sticking to her mother as if she had completed all her work just to stay with her. While Feng Shufen was sitting on the side, reading a business magazine leisurely.

Even though his eyes were reading through the content written in the book, his ears were all focused to hear the talks of his wife and his daughter. He had never said it before but their conversations have always been the most amusing things to hear.

Little Li Wei was all focused on her mother. She has heard a lot from her uncle and now she wants to confirm all of it from her. "Mama, that means, now are you like the real princess?"

Li Xue looked at her and wanted to smile at her alienated tone but she nodded to accept. "Yes, I am sweetie. But does that change a thing?"

Little Li Wei shook her head. "Nope Mama, what could specifically change. You will still be WeiWei's prettiest Mama."

Li Xue couldn't help but smile. Still, the question wasn't simple and Lin Xinyi's changed attitude has made her think. So, getting the answer from her daughter, she turned to Feng Shufen as well. "Mr. Beelzebub, what do you think?"

Feng Shufen nonchalantly looked up at her and said, "You will always be my beautiful wife. Nothing would change." Li Xue could only press her lips. To which, Feng Shufen added, "Don't think about others. They would get adjusted with time."

Li Xue nodded. Chen Rui said the same. Maybe time would adjust everything.

"Mama, being the princess, wouldn't you be required to carry a crown on your head every day. It would be tough for you." She said and with such an innocent reply Li Xue couldn't help but smile before pulling her little angel in her arms to hug.

Kissing her forehead in adoration, she said, "Don't worry, sweetie. Princesses don't have to wear heavy crowns daily so it wouldn't be tough."

"Really, Mama?" The little one was still not believing it and Li Xue knew the reason so she explained.

"Yes, sweetie. Although princess tales are taken from real lives, real life is still very different from those stories. Here the crown is not given for just a few pages of the story, rather real responsibilities are bestowed for ages. And you do not always need to carry that crown to remember your duties and responsibilities." She explained how understanding her daughter has always been, WeiWei nodded.

"Then Mama, will the responsibilities be tough to handle?"

Li Xue shook her head again and denied it. "Not too tough but I will require my sweetie's help. As long as you help me, everything will be easy."

Little WeiWei didn't reply hurriedly. But after giving some thought to her mother's words, she got down from her lap to turn to her and say with all confidence. "Don't worry, Mama. WeiWei will always find time to help you. I will finish my studies sooner and then will help you with everything. And when I grow up, I will go to help you and Daddy Angel both."

She said, knowing her daughter a little too well, Li Xue couldn't dare to doubt her daughter's words. In the span of time in which her little one was silent, people would think her to be simply thinking, but she knew in that small time her princess must have sorted out her plans.

Right when Li Xue was having small conversations with her family, her phone rang and she saw Feng Yi Lan's name flashing on the screen. Asking her daughter to sit on her own for a moment, she shifted a little to receive the call.

"Hello, Yi Lan." She greeted, but from the other side of the call came a concerned voice.

"Girl, tell me, are you fine?" Feng Yi Lan asked before adding more in concern. "Did that crazy witch do something to you?"

When she heard her mention such words, Li Xue's brows raised in surprise, "Yi Lan, calm down. I am fine. And who are you mentioning like that?"

"Do you even have to ask that? Of course, I am talking about Zhang Xiaotong. Did she do something to you?"

Li Xue thought for a moment and then shook her. "Nothing major. She just challenged me over something and it's all settled now. "

Even though Zhang Xiaotong has planned and plotted that legal case against her. Hasn't it been settled already?

"Girl, you better not lie to me. If it had really been settled, Zhangs must not be facing what they are facing now." Feng Yi Lan said and Li Xue only frowned at her words.

"What do you mean?"

Feng Yi Lan huffed a deep breath out and said, "Dear, are you not checking the news? Other than you, Zhangs are trending on the internet. You are getting known for your victory, while they are getting trolled for their soon-to-be going bankruptcy."

"They are going bankrupt, what does this have to do with me, Yi Lan?" Li Xue asked as from the corner of her eyes, she looked at the man whose expression didn't waver even after hearing her expression of surprise. He just sat there, reading as if he was all unconcerned.

"Li Xue, did I even have to say that? Since I am calling to tell you this, this clearly hints that the doer of this entire plot is near you. You just have to look around and you will be able to see him."

She said and Li Xue hummed, knowing exactly what she meant. "I get it." She said and her such a simple reply only made Yi Lan dumbfounded.

"You get that? Does that mean you know that my brother is bullying people?"

Li Xue stared at the man and hummed in denial to say, "That's not a bully, Yi Lan. People are getting punished for their audacities. Let them handle it. They will learn when they suffer." She said and for a moment her words sent shivers down Yi Lan's spine.

Jolting on the other side of the call, she said, "Girl, believe me, you sounded dangerous when you said that. But it was cool to hear from you. If the enemy is Zhang Xiaotong, I would like to see you taking my brother's way. His ruthlessness is a must to handle such crazy women."

She said and then humming to her, Li Xue soon disconnected the call and then turned to look at the man to ask, "You did that?"

Feng Shufen hummed. "I can't let them escape so easily. I was just letting you play to your heart's content before putting my card forward. Their lineage is quite big and it would take time to get finished." He said and his words came nonchalantly, yet dripped with cruelty.

Li Xue looked at him and didn't say more. For some reason, she agreed to his way. Even though the girl was punished in court, Zhang Xiaotong stayed unharmed behind her.

"Mama, earlier I talked with little-belittle Uncle and he said I am going to meet him soon. Is he coming here to meet me or am I going to the palace to meet him?" She asked and Li Xue turned to smile at her.

"Aye, I almost forgot to tell you, sweetie. I will be taking you to the palace to spend a day. Finish up all your schoolwork, so that you can enjoy your time there, okay?" Li Xue said and the little one was at once excited.

Jumping to wrap her arms with delight, the little one cheered, "Yay! Mama. WeiWei loves the palace and was waiting to visit again."
