Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 524 - Better to be early than to be late.

Sister Margaret came forward to serve breakfast to Feng Shufen and Li Xue. She could see how much the Young Master was enjoying the tantrums the lady was throwing. Her lips curled up into a smile, when saw, how blissful the couple looked together.

"Young Master, Madam has cooked this breakfast especially for you," The old lady said, serving some steamed stuffed buns.

"There is nothing called 'specially for him', Sister Margaret. I was just plainly trying them out since it has been months since I last cooked them" Li Xue said, looking towards them from the corner of her eyes.

Sister Margaret bowed slightly with a knowing smile as she readily agreed to the woman's words. "My apology, Madam! I thought it the other way". She said and Li Xue just hummed in response, glancing at the man. Her expressions telling the man to keep his misconceptions clear.

But whoever said that Feng Shufen was a man to ever hold misconceptions, and that too regarding her?

His lips sent a curved smirk to the woman, while his chopsticks went to grab a bun to get it into his mouth. Under the gaze of the woman, he bit a bite of the bun, savouring the deliciousness all well in his mouth.

Li Xue's lips faintly curved seeing him like the taste of the buns and then went back to give her attention to her own breakfast. Her efforts of preparing those buns for him did not go waste. Though the man never rejected having pancakes in his breakfast seeing her efforts and little head's likings, she has seen his habits of eating all minutely to know that pancakes were something he doesn't prefer to eat much.

So, when got a chance, while preparing some pancakes for her daughter, she also steamed some stuffed buns for the man, testing his taste buds to know his preference. And finally, she got to understand that the man liked to have a little spices in the morning instead of having sugary dishes.

"Mama, the pancakes were yum and I finished it all", suddenly Li Xue heard her daughter say from beside. Her eyes went to stare at her plate. Of course, she has finished it all. She was not a kid to waste the food, especially when her breakfast included one of her favourites like chocolate pancakes.

She smiled slightly before nodding at her daughter. Keeping her chopsticks down, she reached to get a table napkin and then turned to wipe off her daughter's lips softly that still had the remaining of the chocolate syrups at the corners.

"Good girl! Have you already prepared your school bag?" She asked, fixing her bangs over her forehead.

Little Li Wei instantly nodded, gesturing her mother to look at one of the sofas in the living hall. "Yes, Mama! I have already kept it prepared, checking our today's class schedule, in the same way, you have made me understand".

Li Xue nodded. "Okay then let's go. I will take you to the car. Right now, go with Uncle Driver, later I will come to pick you up from the school. How does it sound?"

The little girl instantly bloomed with happiness. Nodding her head profusely at the offer of her mother, she chimed, "Woah! Mama is coming to pick WeiWei up after so many days. It will be fun. Yay!!" She jumped on her seat, and fearing that she might fall, Li Xue quickly held her.

"Hey, don't get overexcited like this, sweetie! You might fall".

"Haha … it's okay, Mama. WeiWei will never fall with her Mama around" The little girl giggled and Li Xue could only pull her lips into a straight line. "Mama, will Daddy Angel also come with you?"

Li Xue turned to look slightly at the man, before denying all logically, "No, baby! Since your Daddy Angel has cut his work short yesterday to accompany Mama, it will only burden him with more work if he repeats the same today. So, let's not burden him, okay?"

The little girl pouted a little with disappointment but after pondering over her mother's words, she agreed. "Yes, yes, Mama. We should not stress Daddy Angel more today, or else, he might not be able to get the time to attend WeiWei' s debate competition later."

Li Xue nodded, darting her eyes to look at the man. Her words earlier were not out of the act of disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e that she was showing at the man, rather it meant exactly the same as her words indicated.

Feng Shufen got a poker expression at her words but he did not say anything.

"Okay, then I will take you out", Li Xue said, lifting her daughter again up in the air to put her down on the floor. But right before, she could leave her chair, she heard the man say from his place.

"You have yet to finish your breakfast. Complete it first. There is still time for WeiWei to get to the school. There is nothing to hurry with".

"Yes, Madam! Let me help you. You complete your breakfast, while I go and drop the little princess to the car", Sister Margaret also suggested. But Li Xue just shook her head at their words and stood up.

"It's fine, Sister Margaret. My breakfast is almost done. I will go and drop WeiWei out on my own. Though there is still time in getting her to school, it's still better to be early than to be late" She said, before putting a smile on her face and then walking off. But her steps suddenly paused, only to slightly turn around to say, "By the way, Sister Margaret, please don't forget putting the bouquet and gift in your Young Master's study room. He might not like to miss his time being in their fresh blossoming fragrance".

"Yes, Madam!" The old lady said, all in a polite tone as she saw the lady walking out of the house with her daughter's hands in hers.

The little girl turned around to wave her hands in goodbye, first at her Daddy Angel and then to her Sister – Granny Margaret.

Feng Shufen smiled back in reciprocation. But when saw her turning back in front, his eyes went frigid. His eyes came to stare back at the half-eaten plate that Li Xue has left behind and then turned to look at the flowers kept at a distance.

When the old lady saw him staring at the flowers, she quickly went forward to keep them away.

"Where are you taking them, Sister Margaret?" Feng Shufen asked. His voice, coming out all cold and dark.

"Ah, Young Master, I am bringing these gifts to the usual gift room, where the other gifts from Ms Zhang had been kept all this time. I would have put them there before but Madam stopped me, getting curious about the gift room"

Feng Shufen brows wrinkled and he pulled up his hand to pinch the skin between his brows. His eyes were closed to hide his tiredness. "No need to keep them in the gift room any longer. Just send it back right away!" he ordered, his face getting all sombre and stern.
