Chapter 181 – His Ignorance Made Her Insecure.
Though Li Xue has already guessed Li Wei's thoughts and reasons behind her dream. She still has not thought to reveal everything to Mr Beelzebub. Ryan's feelings were not unknown to her. Knowing her heart, she can't be so cruel to push her away and crush her hope, even when she knew that there was no hope of a chance for her.
So as she heard her daughter making the name of Ms Kim all prominent in her words, she quickly stopped her to say any further, praying in her heart that the man had not heard anything but her wish this time was simply impossible.
She thought to move on the conversation omitting the mention of Kim Ryan in it but before she could even think what to say, Feng Shufen said from behind. "WeiWei, do you not trust your angel's powers. Or do you think that your Ice demon is more powerful than your Daddy?"
Did he not hear the words of Li Wei before? Li Xue was all stunned at his ignorance, not able to contemplate anything about it. Or was the man purposely ignoring it? Is it to protect Ms Kim? Several questions arose in her heart.
Though she does not want to feel jealous in her heart, unknowingly she was. A weird feeling of insecurity started creeping inside her as she moved aside to look at the man. Her eyes were clearly piercing him with accusations of betrayal and lies. Without any reason, she started feeling hurt inside.
But the man simply shrugged off all her gazes effortlessly in nonchalance, making the woman go all fierce with her eyes.
The little girl, who was all unknown to these games, shook her head to reply to her Daddy Angel's words. "No, no, Daddy Angel! You are the best in this whole world. I trust you the most after my Mama. Ice Demon cannot be compared to you but I can't see you get hurt. You are my angel and angels should always shine".
"Your Daddy Angel will never get hurt, little piece. Trust me, with me around nothing bad will come to you. But to increase my powers against the evils I will always need both yours and your mother's trust on me" he said and then turned to give a soft gaze at Li Xue. Her face was holding a straight expression, not giving any hints of the feelings she was feeling inside.
Little Li Wei pondered at those words for some moment before saying as per her drawn conclusions. "Ohh that means, daddy Angel's power gets increased when the two most lovely fairies believe in him. Same as it happened with the frog prince. Right, Mama?" She asked her mother, turning her attention to her.
"Mama, are you mad about something?" She asked, looking at her mother holding such a fierce face. Her eyes got back a little confused. When Li Xue heard her daughter suddenly mentioning her, she quickly got herself back in her composure, shaking her head in nothing.
"I am all fine Li Wei. Why will I be mad? You have not been naughty rather a sweet child to me. There is no way I will be mad at you", she quickly tried to shrug off her daughter's sharp perceptive eyes. But Li Wei was too intelligent to truly understand her Mama's expressions.
"No, Mama. You are just twisting your words to not say the truth. I know that mad expression of yours. Last time, you were like this when Uncle Jin broke your favourite cactus flower pot in our old place. He even took us to dinner but you did not let the matter slide off like that until he gifted you another beautiful pot especially crafted by him. That pot is still kept in our bedroom, Mama. Do you forget it?"
Li Xue has no answers. Her daughter knows her too well. Looking at her, she smiled and simply said, "That was your Uncle Jin, sweetie! Not to forget he has a different place and importance in our lives".
The little girl nodded to her mother. No doubt Uncle Jin was very different and important. When the two girls were discussing the other man, none noticed Feng Shufen's face turning dark as the bottom of the pot.
To shrug off the topic quickly, Li Xue quickly dodged the topic, making her little sweetheart go back to the question she has asked her before. "And about the thing you asked about your Daddy Angel before, he is right. Trust of the people you love is really important to garner the strength you need to fight the evil". She said making her daughter understand the importance of trust.
The girl nodded and then with a smile, she turned to look at the man. Feng Shufen's look was all back to normal, not giving any hints of vinegar he had tasted just a few moments before. "Daddy Angel, I will give you my angelic powers and trust to fight that Ice Demon", she said putting her hands up to give a thumbs up and then continued, "Hehe … can I keep this ice cream back. I will have it the next day, today your cooked delicious food was enough to full my stomach".
Li Wei said with a slight giggle, extending her ice cream bowl to her front. The man nodded and soon the ice cream was kept back in the refrigerator. The smile of bubbliness that was lost from the little girl's face was back making the atmosphere brighten around in just a few seconds.
Seeing her daughter back, Li Xue too smiled. But she has not yet forgotten the things. The ignorance of the man. Though she has not wanted him to know the things before, still seeing him getting all ignorant about it was also something she has not wanted.
She quickly brought her girl back to the floor from the countertop as she said, "Okay, now let's go! It's already getting late and your Handsome Angel would also want to rest. He must be exhausted from all the work before".
When she heard her mother, the little girl shook her head in disapproval as she added, "oh oh Mama! It's Daddy' Angel now. Did you forget it again?"
Feng Shufen looked at her and smiled for some reason which Li Xue could not understand. "WeiWei, can you take a short nap in your room for the night today. I have some things to discuss with your Mama".
