Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 648 - First girlfriend, first fiancée and only wife for life

Back in Little Carnations,

Li Xue was back home really early only to get greeted by empty space and Sister Margaret. Since she has time in her hands and also an opportunity, she decided to spend her time in the kitchen instead of watching her mobile or television. She had already re – activated her social media accounts and left it aside, knowing well that she would either be having no activities on it or the monotonous ones.

"Don't you get bored in this empty house, Sister Margaret? This feels so lonely" Li Xue asked, moving to get and wrap an apron around her. "You should sometimes take some time to go out and meet your family".

Sister Margaret smiled. "Thanks for your thoughts, Madam. But time makes people learn everything and reaching this old age, I have already learned to live in an empty house without feeling loneliness. Furthermore, I never had a family to meet". She spoke as she steadily prepared all the ingredients for Li Xue.

"No family? Does that mean you have been here from the very beginning?" Li Xue asked curiously, looking at the old woman while her hand worked in washing the vegetables one after the other.

The old woman nodded. "Yes, Madam, I have been looking after Young Master from his very childhood. In the Feng family I have come along with former Madam Feng, that's the biological mother of Young Master and then remained here to look after the two kids even after my Madam left. I had a duty to follow". She said and Li Xue felt herself getting more and more trapped in the cobweb of curiosity.

This was her chance to know more about Feng Shufen and his childhood. In no way she could bear to miss it. Her eyes shined in innocent cheerfulness and excitement as she blinked it charmingly at Sister Margaret.

Hours passed by as Li Xue cooked and patiently heard Sister Margaret tell stories from Feng Shufen's childhood to his young days and then about his abroad days. The more she heard the more she got filled with amus.e.m.e.nt. From time to time her eyes would widen in surprise while sometimes she would just roll her eyes at the things.

"What so good about having a cold personality, Sister Margaret? At the end of the day, your Young Master just remained like a Buddha without having any fun in his life? What's the use of having such cool looks for which girls always die for? Sigh, that's such a regret he would get in his old years."? Li Xue let out a sigh, covering the lid over the dish and then removing her apron. "Am I saying something wrong, Sister Margaret? Isn't the wastage of such pretty looks a pity?"

The old lady knew her limits well. So, instead of saying anything in favor of the lady or against her Master, she smiled heartily in diplomacy. "Might be Young Master was willing to waste his youth to wait for Madam to appear someday" She said and Li Xue could only purse her lips at her words.

Could she even decline that? Nope, not after she became Mr. Beelzebub first girlfriend, first fiancée and only wife for life.

Not finding any more words to say, she simply turned to glance at the food she had prepared. "Ah, Sister Margaret, I think I don't have anything else to cook. The meal is prepared and any extra dishes will only be wasted. So, now I think I should go and take some rest." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ

Sister Margaret nodded humbly. "Yes, Madam! You can take some rest. When the little princess will be back home, I will inform you".

"You wouldn't find the need for that Sister Margaret. I am sure my Little one's sense of smell works from a distance of a few kilometers. Before you could tell her, she would already find me" Li Xue said, getting all confident and then taking her steps back upstairs to her room.

Cooking a healthy meal after so long, she could say that she was slightly tired and would need a good nap. She tiredly stretched her neck, patting a little with her hands and then breathing a tired breath out. 'The days are not always easy. Prepare yourself to work hard to get tired like this'. Li Xue encouraged herself internally as she pushed the door of her room open to see her bed well prepared, inviting her to take the much – needed relaxing sleep.

Closing the door behind her at once, she ran to get on the bed when suddenly paused looking at her phone. "Aye, am I forgetting something" she questioned herself, before taking her phone into her hand to look around. After some time of internal debate, she finally moved her fingers to send a text to someone, out of tease. ["I have heard President Feng never had any girl around in his life. What a pity!"]? She texted and set the phone aside only to hear the ping the next second.

["If that fact itself could bring flutters to your heart, then it's not a pity but an honor."]

Li Xue read it out to herself, narrowing her eyes at every word and pressing her lips together. Such a sweet talker I have got in my life! She complimented her own fate before typing another string of words.

[President Feng, don't you have a company to work on? Why are you wasting your time on flirting?]

Just after the message was sent, it dinged again and Li Xue could not help but for once think what can be the WPM of the man to send the reply this fast. She checked and she was right to guess it was from Feng Shufen again.

[I am in the meeting!]

Meeting? Heh? Even in the meeting, his flirting skill doesn't lag behind. She again internally expressed herself and was about to type another text to him but before she could, her phone rang with a call and Li Xue was quite amused to see who was calling her this time.
