? "This … Sweetie, what are you
When Li Xue looked down at WeiWei, the girl was all dressed differently. Around her hair it was a flowery tiara tied that was making her look like a princess from the realm of flowers. She looked very pretty but this is not how Li Xue remembered bringing her here.
Then what's happening?
"Mama, tell me, how am I looking?" When the little one didn't see any reply coming from her mother, she desperately tugged on her mother's sleeves and asked again. Her brows furrowed as if her important decision was dependent on her mother's next coming words.
Li Xue saw the furrow of anxiousness on her princess' face and she smiled. Cupping her cheek in on hand, she said, "You are pretty as always sweetie. I just got mesmerized seeing you like this. But first tell me what you are doing dressing up like this? Who made you ready? I remember I didn't bring you here like this."
She asked and hearing the first half of her mother's words, WeiWei let out a breath of relief. Breathing a deep breath out first, she looked up at her mother with a smile and said, "Mama, I am wearing it just to help Pretty Elder Aunt. She was worried on such a beautiful day, so WeiWei planned to help her with her worry. But WeiWei was sure if she was doing it right. But now that you are saying that I am looking pretty then it must be going well."
She said and Li Xue still couldn't understand. Her brows furrowed in confusion and she looked up at Feng Shufen for some help. But just at that moment, a soft, elegant voice solved all the mysteries.
"We didn't get the flower girl at time so I asked dear WeiWei to help me out. Li Xue, you don't have to think too much. I got her the dress and then dressed her personally for this. Isn't she looking pretty? Or do you think I failed your expectations somewhere?" Feng Yi Ran asked with a smile as she walked on her heels slowly towards Li Xue.
Li Xue turned to look at her and shook her head, "Definitely not, Yi Ran Jie. You have dressed her perfectly. I was just surprised to see her like this." She said and Feng Yi Ran smiled. Then her eyes darted to look at his brother, who was as usual standing with an expressionless face.
Raising a brow at him, she stared and folded her arms over her chest to say, "You don't look happy with it, FenFen. Do you have any problem? Or did you not like that I dressed your daughter like this?"
She asked, knowing that there was definitely something going on in Feng Shufen's head.
When Feng Shufen heard his sister, his expression did not a bit changed. Instead, it grew deer. Shifting a bit in his position, he said, "My daughter is not a doll that you can dress up. She has her wishes and choices to make. So, from next time if you don't find someone, you should go and look for someone other. Not her."
He said, and Li Xue was really dumbfounded at his words. Although his tone was respectful, it was still cold and Li Xue felt that it might have hurt Feng Yi Ran.
Li Xue was about to speak to Feng Shufen when a soft voice spoke instead. "Daddy Angel, Pretty Elder Aunt didn't ask me. WeiWei offered to help her. Also, I feel this dress is really beautiful. Am I not looking beautiful, Daddy Angel?"
Feng Shufen looked down at her and his eyes slightly got gentle. Nodding, he accepted and the little one smiled. When Li Xue saw him changing his attitude so easily, she couldn't help but shake her head. This didn't happen for the first time, but no matter how many times it had happened, it still felt as unreal as ever.
How was it so easy for him to get so especially different sound them?
"WeiWei, you are now the flower girl in your Aunt Yi Lan's wedding. You hold a responsibility. You should go and be there with your aunt. Come on, go ahead. We will also be soon there." Li Xue said, and the little girl looked at her mother and nodded to her in understanding.
"Mama, then WeiWei will go and accompany Aunt Yi Lan." Saying that, WeiWei turned and left. Nut that was not before giving the pearly white smile to everyone.
After she left, Li Xue gave a fleeting gaze to Feng Shufen before shaking her head at him. Then turning to look at Feng Yi Ran apologetically, she said, "Yi Ran Jie, please don't listen to his words. Sometimes he simply doesn't realize that he is putting his concern in the wrong way. His words come cruel but his intention is not the same."
She spoke like a little wife who looked like she was mending the relationships but at the same time defending her husband.
When Feng Yi Ran saw her like that, she perfectly understood the little wife playing in her. She smiled internally and looked at her brother. His words might have offended anyone, but how could she feel the same as anyone when she knows her little brother better than anyone else.
"Xiao Xue, you don't have to get stressed. Especially during your pregnancy. None of his words can offend me ever because I know him inside out." Feng Yi Ran said as she walked closed to her brother and stared up at his face. "Although his favorite expression to carry is this poker face, Xiao Xue, but never can he satay nonchalant to the things when it comes to the people he care for."
She said and then turned to look back at Li Xue to continue, "When he said those words earlier, his intention was not to offend me or hurt me. He just wanted to protect the rights of his daughter. And I feel it was not a wrong thing to do. When you want something, you shouldn't be kind to ask for it. Rather, you should also come strong with your desire for it. Because need is still sometimes subdued but desire is that fire that the more you suppress the more it increases."
She said, and for some reason, Li Xue understood what she meant by it. Nodding, she showed her agreement to the same.
