Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 555 - Rejection has never been on the list of choices.

Chapter 555 - Rejection has never been on the list of choices.

Soon the winners were decided and the chief guests were asked on the stage to deliver the awards. Feng Yu Hao's c.h.e.s.t puffed up with pride as he climbed up the stairs to reach the stage. He did not know what made him feel this prideful but he could not help but feel the bubbles in his heart.

Zhen Qinrou also climbed up the stairs along with the man, her eyes showing the light of some hostility but then her smiling expressions masking it all.

Everyone cheered for the little figure while the teacher and the Principal standing at the side felt the pride. Undeniably, their decision of pushing the little up for the difficult task didn't prove wrong, rather came out more exceptionally. No doubt the glory was not only added to the little one but also in the books of the school.

While people were clapping at the front, behind the crowds, someone was struck with thundering clouds.

Feng Yi Lan felt like she had just experienced the earthquake and was still trembling due to its effect. Her face went ghostly pale as she looked at her father getting on the stage along with her mother.

What were they doing here? When did they come and how did she doesn't know their presence around?

She questioned herself one after the other as she heard the anchor announce them as the chief guest invited to the annual fest. She turned to look at her friend who was all smiling at her daughter's victory. Only if she knew what deadly situation she was about to get trapped in now. Sigh! Oblivion to dangers was really hazardous but being with her brother was doomed to come.

Feng Yi Lan said breathing out with some thought of disappointment but then her thought paused when she remembered that she was not alone here. Her brother was also here. Why should she only take the stress when someone else should take it more.

Thinking that she dipped a little back in her posture to look at her brother. But to her surprise, there was nothing different in the Devil's expressions. He looked all cool and relaxed.

What was he thinking with that expression? Did he forget that their parents won't be supportive enough to support him in the relationship with Li Xue?

"Yi Lan, what are you doing like that? WeiWei is getting awarded at the stage and you are looking here and there?" Li Xue asked when found her twisting and moving in her place.

Feng Yi Lan at once gave a smile of nothingness, as she shook her head and said, "Haha … Li Xue, that's nothing. I was just seeing if I could snap a better picture of WeiWei standing there at the corner. Let me go there and check". She slipped quickly to get to stand on the other side of her brother. She was not a good one to take the suspense.

Li Xue felt a little weird but she didn't mind, knowing her friend was all full of weird antics. Feng Shufen also kept nonchalant when found his sister to come and stand beside him. Hands tugged in the pocket, his eyes just stared at the stage where their daughter was taking the award and enjoying the praises.

"Hey, Brother! Why are you so calm? Have your eyes got some specific blindness that they are not able to see father standing on the stage?" Feng Yi Lan said softly as she looked desperately anxious at the man.

But even after a few moments, Feng Shufen did not seem to be responding to her words. Her lips got pursed at her brother's ignorance. Was he planning to revenge her for her earlier audacity? Does he really have to be this stubborn and childish with his younger sister?

She shook her head internally as she reached to tug at the man's sleeves to get the answer, more straightforwardly. "Hey, Brother! I accept what I said earlier was wrong. Now can you kill the suspense of your nonchalance at the moment? Why are you not stressed finding a father here?"

"Why would I get stressed about the things that I have known all way", Feng Shufen replied, keeping his expression all firm and poker. His reply was simple and clear yet it brought fair confusion evident on Feng Yi Lan's face.

Her brows got wrinkled as she turned wholly to look at her brother, before asking, "Huh? What does this mean? Are you saying that all this time you already knew that Father was here as the chief guest?"

Feng Shufen did not reply any further. He never had the habit of repeating one thing twice. His silence was enough to let Yi Lan know that she has not guessed wrong. Definitely, her brother would know. How would he not? After all, he almost has the command to say everywhere.

She was speechless on her dumb-headedness. "Hey, if you know, why are you still here? Shouldn't you be hiding Li Xue behind to protect her more?"

Of course, that would only be the right thing to do, after all, at the very first meeting, it's not likely to let her father know about the existence of the little one in their couple's life. That would only further deteriorate things for her friend. Doesn't her brother know that already?

"If you are trying to end the relationship with my Li Xue, just do it with some respect. Why do you have to insult her?" She said out thinking that there are some ulterior motives of her brother behind, or else why would he do something this reckless? She was about to start for more but just when the words could roll out her lips, it paused deep down in her throat when saw the piercing cold eyes snapping towards her.

Was that her end? She thought to herself, gulping down the pool of fear, she was feeling inside. "I … I … Brother, I was just saying …"

"Say that again and I won't think twice to rip out the tongue of my own sister" He growled in a low voice, enough to get in the ears of Yi Lan while keeping Li Xue in oblivion. His eyes blazing fire, fierce enough to burn anyone alive.

Feng Yi Lan would have almost collapsed on the floor, if she was not holding onto her brother and there have not been people around. She could swear till now this was the fiercest look of him she has ever seen. Seems like she should not be any doubtful of his intentions towards Li Xue. With just his eyes and fierceness, he looks so sure of them.

"Ah, haha … Brother, don't take this as an offence. I was just being careful about Li Xue. You know I am so concerned for her. But from now on, I promise, I would never question your presence around her." She promised, raising two fingers up in the air. But then again continued, "Still, at least, let me know why are you bringing her like this in front of father? What if he does not accept her?"

"She is not a choice that anyone could accept or reject for me. She is the only option I have kept in my life. So, rejecting has never been in any list of choice" He said in a tone that didn't allow any further questions at his words.
