Chapter 986 – Your Trying Is Enough .
Li Wei never needed her Mama's command to open the door for her Daddy Angel. She always waits for the whole day patiently so that later in the evening, she could welcome her Daddy Angel with a big hearty smile.
On her Mama's say, she didn't wait and immediately sprinted her way to the door to open it for Feng Shufen. While behind Li Xue took her time to serve the dishes on the table. She was looking a lot better after having a cheerful time with her daughter. But somewhere inside, she had not yet totally forgotten of the things.
Opening the door for Feng Shufen, the little girl didn't take time in climbing up his embrace. "Daddy Angel, you are back!" She rejoiced, wrapping her arms around the man's neck and giving him a hug.
The man hummed and hugged her back. But his eyes desperately looked inside as if he was searching for something or someone. Behind him, even the stoic Gao Fan rushed in check but since it was Feng Shufen standing ahead of him, he had no way to check what actually happened.
Earlier Feng Shufen was in a meeting with some foreign clients when Gao Fan received Du Fan's message. But since the meeting was a little too important for the company, the secretary chose to hold it in, given the situation. Furthermore, he just thought the lady to be a little upset, even if she would be attended a little late it wouldn't be a problem.
But he had greatly mistaken the priorities. When after the meeting, he informed Feng Shufen about it; not just the man didn't stay to bid farewell to the clients but he also glared at his secretary in a way that almost choked him to death.
"Prepare the car!" was the only command served to him. And Gao Fan was sharp enough to understand the remaining unheard orders that those three words contained.
Nodding at the very instant, he didn't question anything and at once drove back to the forest house in less than 30 minutes when the whole ride was itself of more than 45 minutes.
"WeiWei, where is Mama? Is she upset about something?" When didn't find Li Xue in his line of sight, Feng Shufen asked while walking inside the house with Gao Fan following from behind.
The little girl looked at her father and shook her head with some thought. "Mama seemed to be sad about something before but after hearing WeiWei's stories, she is fine now." Perceiving the things according to her innocence, Little WeiWei responded while gesturing the man to look into the kitchen from where her mother was coming out.
Feng Shufen followed her gaze and found Li Xue looking at him. As informed, she looked a bit off but before he could ask her about it, she interrupted him with her own words.
"You are back home. Get freshen-up first so that we can have dinner." Li Xue said, pressing a smile over her lips while tilting to one side, she didn't fail to look at Gao Fan who was also standing behind the man. "Mr. Secretary, you are also here. Since you are already here with us, please stay for the dinner."
Though Gao Fan was holding his usual stoic expression at the moment, he was very confused inside. Enough to almost get dazed in between the lady's words.
"Mr. Secretary?" Li Xue tried to call out when saw Gao Fan not responding to her.
And her voice instantly snapped the secretary out of his daze making him ask, "Sorry, Madam?"
"I asked you to stay for the dinner."
Gao Fan shook his head, ready to reject the idea, but before he could, Li Xue added, "I requested you. Won't you stay?"
At the name of the request, Gao Fan could no longer reject. Looking at his President, he asked, and only after receiving his approval, he nodded to accept, "Thank you for asking me, Madam."
Li Xue smiled then looking at Feng Shufen, she gestured him to go in to change. The man didn't revoke. Letting down the girl from his embrace, he walked to climb up the stairs to his room. He could feel the calmness in the woman's attitude, but could also tell that this at the moment she was not intending to talk about it.
Soon the dinner was well completed in peace. Though all the while on the table there were cheering giggles of Li Wei that entertained everyone, still everything passed in peace.
This was the first time Gao Fan had a meal with the family and he must say it was very much enjoyable. He had not spent too much time with the little young princess before, but one day with her was enough to make his heart full of memories of her witty talks.
"Secretary Uncle Gao, will you be also be coming to have dinner with us the next day?" Completing her food on the plate, the little girl couldn't help but ask with excitement. "WeiWei really enjoyed you here and she would also enjoy the next time if you come to accompany us." She said and Gao Fan couldn't help but smile at her innocent invitation.
"Little young miss, I will surely try to come next time. But I won't promise to you since due to work I can't be sure." He said and seeing him say honestly like that, the little girl was more impressed.
Shaking her head, she agreed, "It's okay, Secretary Uncle Gao. WeiWei knows that with Daddy Angel, you must also be very busy. So, your trying would be enough. And Mama says until one keeps on trying, he would definitely make it in the end. So, fighting! WeiWei will wait for you!" Encouraging with her own words, she jumped down her chair and went to give the hug to the man.
Gao Fan felt the warmth in her hug and gently patted her head with love, giving a smile.
Once done with all that, Li Wei turned to look at her Daddy Angel to ask, "Daddy Angel, what story are you telling me today? The last one was really tricky. Am I going to hear something like that today as well?"
Feng Shufen looked at her and nodded. "Go and check in the book. I will be there soon to read it to you." He said and the girl nodded before bidding goodbye to Gao Fan and excusing herself from the table while pressing a kiss on her mother's cheeks and then running off her room, all excited.
After some time, Feng Shufen as well stood up to leave, giving an understanding gesture to Li Xue which meant that he would come soon after putting the girl to sleep.
Li Xue smiled and nodded to him while seeing him leave. Only after he left, she turned to Gao Fan to ask, "So Secretary Gao, did you enjoy the dinner?" She asked and seeing the lady turn suddenly to him like that, for a moment, he dazed off not understanding about what the lady truly wanted to ask.
Though it was a simple question in her words, the expression she held on her face said something different.
