Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved
714 Critical.
Li Xue's pupils dilated while her brows wrinkled. Her finger gripped hard on the phone as her eyes for a second went to glance at her friend. "Sorry, Feng Yi Lan could not take the call at the moment. I am her friend. Can you please tell me what's the matter?" She asked, trying her best to come out as calm as possible.
"Ma'am, we need Ms. Feng Yi Lan to arrive here soon. Mr. Qi Shuai undergoing immediate surgery and in our records, Ms. Feng Yi Lan is registered as his sole immediate relative." The person on the other side of the call informed with urgency laced in her voice.
"Director Qi is undergoing surgery? What happened to him?" Li Xue asked, not quite understanding the things. In her panic state, she didn't even realize that to ask that question, it wasn't an appropriate time. When realized, she quickly corrected, "Oh, I am sorry, we will be there soon." She said, before hastily disconnecting the call and reaching out to the house intercom.
"Yi Lan, why are you still sitting there like that. Hurry, we need to reach the hospital fast. Come on, hurry!"
"Li Xue, he was calling me in the evening, but I disconnected the call without even caring. How am I going to face him now? He must be really upset with me."Instead of working on Li Xue's words, Feng Yi Lan blabbered on her own.
Though Li Xue could understand the state of her friend, she knew more important things to do at the moment. So without wasting another moment into it, she quickly dialed digits to call Sister Margaret from the quarters to look after Li Wei when they were gone. And on her call, it didn't take much time for the old woman to come running.
Li Xue took her jacket, before picking Yi Lan's furry one to drape over her shoulders. "Sister Margaret, Weiwei is sleeping in her room upstairs. Please look after her."
The old woman nodded with understanding while the other two ladies set off the house.
Since Feng Yi Lan was already in such a state, Li Xue didn't let her drive. Instead took her car keys to drive on her own.
"Yi Lan, you better don't panic that way. It is making me lose my calmness. And to drive the car at the moment, I need to be calm". She warned but her words didn't help much. Li Xue felt her hands getting clammy in nervousness. Not understanding what else she should do, she dialed the number of Feng Shufen but the call didn't reach. Sighing, she set the phone aside to focus solely on driving.
Since it was already close to midnight there wasn't too much traffic on the way. Soon they arrived at the hospital. In comparison to back in the car or at home, Feng Yi Lan seemed quite sobered up now as if she had already overcome her fear and was now full of strength of positivity.
"Li Xue, you can go and park this car first. I will head up first." She said before rushing her way up to the hospital. Li Xue nodded as she turned the car to make her way to the parking lot.
Only after she turned off the engine did she take a proper breath of air. Her grip eased on the steering wheel that she was holding so tight all this time. It was only now that she realized how pale her fingers had become. She let out a breath as she slowly undid the seat belt before pushing the door of the car open to hop out.
But just at the moment, she stepped out of the car and locked the door, she was harshly pushed against it, with her back slamming onto the door. "Wh…"
Before she could even register what happened with her, her lips were sealed shut with another pair that even though came smooth, the urgency in that touch doesn't go amiss. Li Xue didn't understand what was happening. Though it was kind of rough, she could feel the person in front of her. Her hands went to reach the back of his neck to confirm her thoughts and she wasn't wrong to recognize him.
Her fingers weaved through his hair as she let the kiss continue for a longer time. She doesn't know what exactly brought him to such a situation where he felt on the verge of losing all his calmness but given Director Qi's situation in the hospital, she took the loss of the friend as the reason responsible.
After a good time, finally, the moment came to an end. Li Xue's eyes that were closed slowly fluttered to open as she looked at the man at the front. His brows were still tense in some concern that she was yet to know about. His demeanor looked a little haggard to her but she knew that still in his look he would be looking perfect to many others.
"I called to inform you earlier, but your phone was unreachable. When did you return?" She asked, keeping their talks light.
"…" Feng Shufen stared at her but didn't say anything. His fingers moved to brush away the strands of hair that came onto her face.
Li Xue smiled slightly, but her smile didn't appear on her expression. Her hands that were fixing his hair earlier went to press onto his chest as she asked slowly, taking her time. "Your kiss earlier … was that an apology for what you did abroad?" She asked, teasing a little more to bring the man to speak a few words. She could see how worn out he looked and the kiss they shared earlier has said many things that need her care and attention.
"If you felt wrong then you can take it as an apology. But there cannot be anything between me and any other woman". Feng Shufen said.
Of Course, Li Xue knew this. She smiled before fixing the fringes over the man's forehead. "I know. I was just lighting up your mood. How is Director Qi now?"
"The surgery went well. But his condition is critical. The doctor said nothing could be said in the next twenty-four hours". Feng Shufen replied and it was the first time for Li Xue to see him like that. Like having a weak side that no one knew.
Seeing him like that, Li Xue could not help but embrace him away from the world's vision. "Don't worry, he will be fine. Since the surgery went well, he will get well soon."
