Chapter 553 - Gotten piercing thorns in disguise.

"Hey, Li Xue! How could they do this to our little chipmunk? Do they really have to delay her turn this much? Can't they be a little thoughtful to think that the kids would get more nervous if their performances get this delayed? And our WeiWei is already so little", Yi Lan ranted on the organisers as she got bored seeing them delay the only performance she was here for.

Li Xue laughed looking at her like that. "Yi Lan, seeing your chipmunk earlier, do you really think she would be one to get nervous? Don't worry, your brother has trained her enough to be easy. Even I am surprised to see her this way" she said as she smiled softly, looking at her Feng Shufen, who was sitting calmly beside her.

Since the light of the auditorium was dimmed slightly, not much was visible around. But still sitting towards the corner of the row, she could easily make out the grey orbs that were shining warmly, just for her.

Feng Yi Lan could also see the smug smile of her brother. Her lips pressed together, reluctant to give the credit to him. "Li Xue, who has always asked you to be this modest? Don't always give your credits to others. WeiWei has taken her nature and characters after you. If she has been like my brother, then instead of being an angel like you, she would have been a devil-like him". She said, twitching her lips at her brother.

"Being like a devil and angel is not a problem. We are already relieved enough to know that your bad influence is not acting upon her", Feng Shufen said lightly, keeping his expression straight and poker.

And Yi Lan was at once brought on the edge. "You …" Pointing her finger of accusation at him, she started but was snapped shut instantly.

"Teach your fingers some manners, if you don't want to see it getting ruined the next day"

"You … you …" She wanted to say something equally cruel to her brother, but no matter how she tried, she was just not getting the words to retaliate. At last, she only chose her ultimate option of escape. Turning to her friend, she cried, "Li Xue, did you see that? He is even bullying me in front of you"

Li Xue could only shake her head looking at the small war the brother and sister had started just for her to resolve. Sighing, to herself she apologetically smiled, looking at the people who had already started turning to look at the show happening behind. "Oh, I am sorry. I am sorry. They are just playing around".

The people nodded as they turned back to look at the front and Li Xue turned to pass on the glares at the two people sitting on both of her sides.

"Li Xue, don't blame me. It's my brother" Yi Lan defended, to which Li Xue just waved her hands.

"Fine, fine, let's discuss it after getting out from here. For now, let's look forward to WeiWei on the stage. See, they have already announced it the next" Li Xue said, taking a deep breath of strength in.

On the stage, soon the announcement was made. The debate was kept towards the end, thinking that not many people would be interested in it. And as predicted, after hearing the call about it, soon many audiences started to move out. But their steps only came to halt in the tracks when suddenly heard someone mentioning that a little girl of 5 years would be participating with the students double her age and size.

Anticipation filled every heart as they held onto their seats just to see what the school management was up to. Whispers filled in the air as they saw the line of eight students, dressed all well in their neat uniforms stepped onto the stage. Just one glance was all needed to identify, which brilliant girl the show was about.

"Okay dear audiences, this is our two teams who would be going to put a show of debate in front of you. Don't mind the mistakes of the speakers because they are still the children and can't be compared much with the elder generation" The anchor announced all politely, gesturing at the two teams of four each. Then patiently, she introduced each participant along with the topic they would discuss later.

Soon the podium was set and debate started on its flow. The turn of speaking decided to get chosen fairly through the token system. When that happened, everyone prayed that the little one gets the chance to speak first, so that her competition becomes a little easier.

Seeing her adorable face yet firm expressions, they were already cheering for her. No one would like to see her getting tearful later. How heartbroken it would be?

But if things would have been that easy as people wanted them to be, then wouldn't the fun in life become boring?

"Sigh, poor little. She is so sweet looking. It would really be regretful to see tears in her eyes" Someone said, seeing the little girl getting announced as the last turn to speak. Won't that only bring her more and more debating questions from the opponents?

"Yes, you are right. The school has really been cruel to give her such a tough job. Don't they know kids have weak hearts and one can't get too tough on them?" Someone else commented, staring all pitifully at the stage.

"I agree. The school should not have selected her for the senior group debate team, after all, what's her age. She looks so little. Believe me, if I had my son on the stage then I would have asked him to go easy on her and if possible, would have even asked him to lose to just make her smile"

Everyone felt sympathetic for the little girl. But who knew, the one whom they were thinking to be weak and frail among the senior students would be the only one giving them the toughest time soon.

Roses look frail but people shouldn't forget that they have also gotten piercing thorns in disguise!
