Chapter 1345 With their pace and connection, we hardly have to do anything.
Li Xue held the recollection of that handsome face in her memory still, the one she held in her remembrance was something from years back. At that time, he looked handsome but his face didn’t hold this charm of maturity that he was holding now.Her eyes matched his gaze as she paused for a moment. Although no words were exchanged, she could feel that his gaze had paused on her. Her brows tugged in confusion but just when she caught the hint of longingness in them, he averted it as if he wasn’t looking at her before.
Wait! Was that the gaze of longingness?
Before she could comprehend it on her own, she saw him already coming to stand in front of her. His gaze was stiff but still warm and gentle. She didn’t know if he was the same as this with everyone around. But at that moment, she felt like she was different for him. Kind of special to receive such a hidden endearing gaze.
While people were staring, keeping them irrelevant, Li Xue kept on staring at him, not for once removing her amber gaze from him.
Even though it was just a month, seeing her today, it felt that decades had passed since he had last seen her. Tearing away the gaze from her face was tough for her, but still, he did it because he knew that the longer he would stare at her, the tougher it would get to stay away from her.
”WeiWei! I am here. You can come to Daddy Angel now.” He said softly before reaching out to take her from Li Xue’s arms.
Li Xue noticed his intention and was about to hand him over to the girl but just then WeiWei’s arms wrapped tighter around her neck with a wish to not let go.
When she felt her strong wrap on herself, Li Xue felt the urge to keep the little one in her arms for longer. The feeling she was having while keeping her in her arms was something that she wanted to keep a bit more.
”What happened, sweetie? Don’t you want to go?” She asked softly and keeping her head on the crook of her mother’s neck, the little one shook her head in rejection.
”I want to stay with you.” She said and Li Xue paused for a moment, feeling the pacing heartbeat of the girl in her arms. “Stay with you a little longer. Can I?”
Even though things didn’t seem proper, Li Xue felt no heart to put down the request of the little one. Looking up at Feng Shufen, she matched his gaze. Not understanding how and what to say to him, she said, “You are here just to take her? What about me? Won’t you take me along?”
Feng Shufen paused for a moment. He could feel the camera flashing around them, continuously taking their pictures. But at that moment what took him off guard was the woman’s question. He didn’t seem ready for it or it was just something he didn’t expect.
Sensing his silence, Li Xue blinked at him and waited for some more time. But in the end, not able to hold for longer, she dragged a breath in and said, “This place is too crowded. We should go out from here first. WeiWei is feeling uncomfortable and so am I. So, let’s go.” She said as she gestured to him in a direction before taking a step towards the front.
But then again, she paused beside him. Thinking for a moment, she scooted a bit closer to him and slowly said, “It’s crowded. I will carry WeiWei while you wrap your arm around me so that we don’t get hurt.”
Feng Shufen looked down at her, a bit unsure of what she was asking for. But when he saw her looking up at him with seriousness laced in her expressions, he hummed to her before bringing his arm to wrap around her.
Even though Shufen has pulled on a cold exterior, there was something that he failed to change in himself. His attitude towards Li Xue. It was still the same. No matter how long it had passed, he still couldn’t bring himself to reject her wishes.
Like that the three people walked out of the mall. Behind everyone was struck dumb. They knew it was Feng Shufen. They heard him accept that the little girl in the arms of Li Xue was his daughter. But then what was Li Xue’s relationship with them? Was there something going on between them?
They couldn’t be sure of it but the way they saw them leave earlier gave a family vibe somehow.
”This is a great scoop. We should publish it soon.”
”With just one tabloid we would be earning millions. Let’s go on with this.”
”But this is about none other but President Feng of Feng Internationals. Do you think publishing content about him like this would be safe?”
”What if something comes out wrong and they sue us? Our companies won’t be able to take the blow.”
The paparazzi discussed among themself. Although the temptation was great, they still didn’t want to lose their lives. After all, recently they have heard that man has become tenfold more ruthless than before.
As they were discussing if they should or they shouldn’t, a voice interrupted them from a distance, pausing them in their talks.
”You got it right. My brother has gotten more ruthless than before. But it’s not just tenfold but hundredfold than what he was before.” It was Feng Yi Lan. She had witnessed the whole scene before and seeing the three together once again, she was feeling teary.
Finally, their plan succeeded in the end. Otherwise, she was so scared earlier. Although Li Xue has lost her memories, after seeing her today with WeiWei and her brother, Feng Yi Lan has gotten sure that her brain has not completely forgotten it. As the doctor said, it was temporary memory loss. As long as things were presented to her positively, she would come to remember it all.
”Ms. Feng, what do you mean? Are you …” The paparazzi were stunned for a moment, still, they asked. But before they could even complete stating their assumption, Feng Yi Lan chuckled to add.
”Of course, apart from warning you guys what can I mean? I interrupted your talks earlier just to tell you guys to think thrice before actually doing something. After all, what you are going to publish is not about just anyone but my niece. Do you think my brother would let it slide off simply? He would never. So, beware of the things.” She said and then without talking more, she stepped away, leaving them alone to comprehend things. Her bodyguards followed after her. She brought quite many along.
Since the plan was to put the little one in hiding, she dared not try to take a greater risk. She was only able to take the courage because she had made all the bodyguards surround the little one quite closely.
Once she left the mall, she pulled out her phone to make a call first. The rings went through and soon the call was answered.
”Hello, LanLan. Have you already selected the gown for the day?” Qi Shuai asked from the other end, unaware of the things that happened.
Feng Yi Lan chuckled, “Who was out to select the gown? I was out with a plan and now, you should congratulate me, since it was a success.”
Qi Shuai paused for a moment and then asked, “Didn’t you say that you were going out with WeiWei to select the wedding gown, LanLan? Then how come now you are saying that that was not your plan in actuality? What were you actually planning?” He asked, clearly getting concerned.
Feng Yi Lan pursed her lips. But then said, “I am fine, Brother Shuai. Can you please not get so concerned for me?”
”Fine, I will not get. But tell me what you were up to?” He asked and then Yi Lan responded.
”I was out to bring the family of three to a reunion and it was a success.”
Qi Shuai frowned with some confusion. “Family of three? You mean Shufen, Weiwei and …”
”Li Xue. Yes, they are together at the moment. I planned it all at the mall here and now they have left the place together.” Before Qi Shuai could even speak, Feng Yi Lan helped him complete it.
Qi Shuai went silent for a moment and, pursing her lips, Feng Yi Lan spoke, “Don’t get upset with me. You know this was needed. We can’t just stay idle and see them ruin the perfect family they make. Although Li Xue has lost her memory, it’s temporary. In a matter of time, she will recover it all. It’s just that I wanted to help so that things get better sooner. After all, WeiWei is small, we all can see her missing her mother.”
She said and heard the man hum on the other side. “I am not upset with you, LanLan. I just want things to get back to how they were before. Not just WeiWei, even Shufen misses Li Xue. He would never say but looking at him even a blind person could tell. Good that you brought them together. Now we have to make consistent efforts to put them along.”
He said but Feng Yi Lan clicked her tongue. “That won’t be needed. Bringing them together once was more than enough. From here on, I am sure they will be able to manage on their own”.
”What do you mean?”
Feng Yi Lan laughed. “What can I mean? It’s simple. I only brought them to meet at the mall today, but now, Li Xue is already on her way home with him. With their pace and connection, we would hardly have to do anything.”
She said and Qi Shuai couldn’t help but ask with some dumbfoundedness. “They are together?”
”What do you think?”
