Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

"Sorry if that question is offensive. But yes, I am just asking you to guess once." Li Xue asked as she waited to hear the reply coming from Lin Xinyi. She knew the question would have sounded absurd but still, that's how she would be able to make things clear.

Lin Xinyi looked at her for a moment. She was all honest when she said that she really didn't understand what Li Xue was asking her. Though the answer was simple and already ready to be presented, she was not confident if actually, that was the regard she had been asked in.

"Li Xue, I don't know what you are asking for. The answer is already so clear to understand. You are his girlfriend and you live with him under the same roof, that too in the same room. If the person is normal and not a monk, then, of course, the physical relationship between you too must be too normal. After all, it's hard for men to not give in to their physical desires. Platonic relationships can't survive for long."

The manager replied with her best, shrugging her shoulders in nonchalance. Not just her, if the same question would have been asked to others as well, the reply would have been the same. Who would think otherwise?

Li Xue was also expecting to hear that. Listening to her saying something common, the smile over her lips deepened on the corners as she nodded, "I know. I was expecting to hear exactly that. But will you believe me if I say that's not common in my story?"

Lin Xinyi's brows frown more. "Li Xue is he …?"

Before she could even begin, Li Xue urgently shook her head to disrupt those obnoxious thoughts, chuckling out to lighten the severe air. Though Lin Xinyi had hardly said any word, she could already guess what it could be about. "No, no, Sister Xinyi. Believe me, he is the man for whom women would die for and also he is completely healthy. So don't take my words otherwise."

"Then …?"

"Then, it's for nothing but for my sake and career, Sister Xinyi. He is more cautious than me about making it successful. Though we share the same room and same bed, except for a few good kisses and warm cuddling, our relationship has not physically progressed anywhere. Not because he doesn't want it. But because he doesn't want to see me losing it all again. He is scared to see me disappointed once again. The person whom I have known to be fearless of everything is scared of one thing in his life. Knowing this, do you think I could be cheated by him?"

Li Xue asked and her words easily wavered the firmness Lin Xinyi held.

"In the current time, I could doubt getting cheated by anyone but from that one person. And even if I ever come to know that he has cheated me, I would believe that what he has done must be for the sake of me." Li Xue added more and her words only added more determination to the confidence she had in Feng Shufen.

To be honest, she has long wanted to say the same to the man as well, but seeing him so believing in her, she doubted that he would not be able to guess her trust in him. After all, wasn't he always very right to guess her thoughts?

"Li Xue, though I accept that for once I became a little personal with you. I have asked you some questions that have kind of overstepped my boundary of concern. But that would never change that I am still your manager. You don't need to do the PDA of your relationship here, in front of me, even though I was the one to ask that". Coughing a little to hold back the gravity, Lin Xinyi said.

Though it sounded a bit fictional, seeing the unwavering confidence of the girl, she had no other choice but to believe it.

Li Xue laughed, knowing well the intentions of the manager. "I know you were truly concerned for me, Sister Xinyi. So, particularly, I went all the way to explain it to you. Sorry, if I have overdone it. But there was no better way for me to give you the explanation to prove my boyfriend's character."

Lin Xinyi waved her hand. "Fine, fine, I understood your part of the story. I will still ask you to be a bit careful and also if there is a problem, you can ask for my help. Though depending on your partner is good, still depending more on yourself is better. That way, you can stand more with dignity and worthiness beside him. And I know somewhere you prefer that". She said and at her words, Li Xue nodded.

"Also there is something I need to tell you more." Lin Xinyi started but paused in between. Fiddling with her fingers, she hesitated.

Looking at her hesitant like that, Li Xue could already guess that it was something serious also from a field about which the woman was not too knowledgeable and accustomed. "What is it, Sister Xinyi? Do I …"

"Li Xue, I understand the concern of your boyfriend regarding you and your career. But it's not necessary to always hold back. Though I don't know much, I have heard keeping the desires bottled up for long will neither be good for the man nor would it be any easy for his woman companion. So you better … Just be a bit careful. I have heard there are safety measures. If it gets harder, you guys could sometimes …"

Taking up her best courage, Lin Xinyi tried to explain but could not continue any longer. All thanks to her singlehood that did not have any trace of the man.

Li Xue didn't expect to hear that as well. Her face turned red while she had no idea how to respond next. Though they were both women, still to her Lin Xinyi was a goddess with whom she has never thought to go in such detail.
