Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 589 - Instigating Me To Do Things.



"Hello!" Zhen Qinrou greeted, hearing the man's affirmation on the other side of the call. "I am just calling you to ask if you have started working on the things, I have asked you or are you still deciding between me and your fear?" She asked with some edge in her voice.

Hearing her question, the man on the other side of the call almost lost all his patience. It was already late in the night, yet the woman did not think to look at the time before calling him. Though on one side he was happy that she remembered him this late but his happiness was short-lived, given to the reason for which she called.

"RuoRuo, do you think that things are so easy? Haven't I already told you? That boy is now all grown and today, he cannot become a plaything of our hands against whom we can recklessly make the plans. Just give me some time and let me think about what I can do. Or else, …" Pan Hong said, trying his best patience on the other side but before he could complete his words the woman snarled in a low voice on the call.

"Don't make fake excuses now. Just remember there was a promise you made to me that you couldn't break. So even if it meant your death, you would still have to find a way to help me out."

"RuoRuo …" His voice came a little defeated but Zhen Qinrou didn't care to show any heed to his defeat.

"Fine! You need time, you can take it. But mind it I don't want to hear that man's existence in coming months. Do whatever you want but …" She was about to complete her words when suddenly she heard the approaching steps from behind and an interrogative call.

"Qinrou! What are you doing? And who are you ordering this late on the call?"

The woman's face paled at once while her eyes dilated in horror. Her spine went rigid as the very first thing she did was to disconnect the call abruptly.

Back in Little Carnations, Feng Shufen's study,

Feng Shufen sat behind his desk, connecting the other laptop with his own with the help of a cable. His fingers moved swiftly over his keyboard while his eyes simultaneously gazed at both of the screens one after the other.

Standing beside him, lowering herself to his sitting posture, Li Xue's gaze was also following his gaze to try and understand what the man was doing. But no matter how keenly she looked and tried, she was just not able to understand the string of the codes he was typing one after the other, without stopping. Though she was not able to understand anything from his keywords, still standing near him was not so wrong.

Being so near to him with the man's focus on his laptop and not her, she was getting the full privilege of enjoying his faint cologne. It was so fragrant that for a moment she was getting an adrenaline rush to go back to his room and check all the fragrance he has got in his collection. But then the thought of missing the opportunity was keeping her rooted in the place.

"Playing naughty would only put you in danger, my love" Suddenly Feng Shufen said, breaking the fragrant trance of the woman. Li Xue's eyes snapped open at his voice as she tilted her head a little to look at him with confusion. Except for his paused fingers over the keyboard and slight redness appearing on the man's ears, nothing looked out of the picture.

"Huh? What did I do?" she asked in confusion. Her eyes mirror the whole innocence of the world.

Feng Shufen gritted his teeth lightly before turning slowly to look at the woman who has always loved to test his patience first and then play innocent after. "You did nothing but you are instigating me to do many things to you" He replied, darkly looking at her.

Li Xue's heart thumped and skipped a beat at his words, while her breath paused looking into his eyes. The darkness in his eyes did not scare her because she knew what that darkness exactly meant. Swallowing the lump in her throat, she quickly moved away and said in a fluster, "I am not instigating anything. I was trying to help you but even after looking at it for so long I was not able to understand a single thing"

"So?"

"So, now that I don't understand. I will be off to read something useful from your library. Bye!" She said quickly, scrambling herself to the near bookshelves.

Feng Shufen could only smile looking at her like that. Shaking his head at her sweet adorableness, he also didn't intend to make her more embarrassed and went back to the things paused on the laptop.

Li Xue stole some side glances of the man while fidgeting through the shelves. Seeing him getting back to the work, she breathed a breath of relief before finding something better for herself to read. The collection of books and information in the library was quite impressive. As expected of the Devil's choice and preference. Though not many things in there were of her interest, still the man has been thoughtful enough to create a small corner just for her.

Taking one of the magazines from shelves, Li Xue went to grab a seat at a fair distance from the man. She would read and every now and then would steal the glance of the man. That was something not in her control. No matter how much she tried to control herself, she could not help but look his way to check his charismatic looks and super handsome expressions.

"Do you have something to ask me?" Feng Shufen asked when felt the woman's eyes on himself for quite a good time. He was enjoying seeing her stealing the glances of him. His fingers never stop over his keyboard.

As if already lost in some trance, the woman subconsciously nodded and asked, "Why are you so hot and charming while working?"

Feng Shufen almost coughed at her words. That was a little too abrupt and he was not expecting it to come that way. His eyes paused as he turned to look at the woman. Of course, he could see her lost in the thoughts. But even lost in the thoughts, could she be this deadly for him.

"It's done!" He said before blinking his eyes at her and breaking her trance.
