Chapter 81 - The Principal has called him to school!
"Ah Li Wei, she is my daughter" Li Xue replied, making Qi Shuai's eyes go wide. His eyes instantly flung to look at the man who was sitting beside the woman all nonchalantly, looking at his laptop.
Daughter! They already have a daughter! How come he is still unknown to this?
Looking at him, Li Xue was about to ask him if there was any problem but before she could, a loud scream erupted inside the car that almost gave the driver a heart attack and the woman shut her ears in horror.
"Traitor! Shufen, you are truly a traitor! When you do the deed? You already have a sweet little daughter, who is already going to school and here being your friend I don't have any idea about it. Do you really take me as your friend or am I being fooled in this relationship?"
He yelled. His expressions are getting more and more like the wife who has caught her husband fooling around with another woman. When Li Xue caught that expression of his, she almost laughed out loud. But then her expressions filled with surprise when she caught the gist of his words.
Was this over – dramatic man misunderstood 'her' daughter to be 'their' daughter? Being horrified with the sudden creation of such rumor, she turned to look at the man who has not yet given any reaction to the words.
Feng Shufen was still busy moving his fingers swiftly on the keyboard. Seeing him like this, it felt like he had not heard any of the words. Was he that concentrated on his work that he has not heard his whining friend?
Li Xue thought that those reasons made sense so she turned to clear everything up by herself. "Director Qi, I think you have taken the wrong things. Li Wei is my daughter, not …" But again before she could complete her words, another voice ordered.
"Stop the car at the next signal. Director Qi has a lot of work and he needs to complete that before the clock strikes midnight", Feng Shufen said without lifting his eyes up at the man. He was too engrossed to look around but that does not mean he has not heard the words.
"And Ms. Li Xue, you don't have to explain everything to the people around. You know the truth and I know how to change it so that's enough to look after", he said and then closed his laptop to keep it aside.
"Huh?" His words were confusing and she was trying her best to catch the right string from between so that she can understand what exactly this man meant.
"Any problem?" the man asked, seeing her raise a suspicion. Li Xue shook her head in denial, "Nope, just that your words were too fast for me to understand"
Maybe she has not understood the meaning behind it, but Qi Shuai being his best buddy from the very beginning got everything to the point. "You … are you serious? You are abandoning me just because I raised my queries. I have been your friend from the beginning and this is how you are treating me now? Fine, if you are so adamant on keeping secrets, then I am the stubborn one too"
He said and then tuned to look at the driver. "You don't have to stop the car. I will accompany everyone to the school. I also want to meet my little princess, after all I am going to be his uncle soon". He ordered.
The driver was at the tough place. Though he knew that the ultimate order ruling would be of the President but in no way he could ignore the words of the Director. He lifted his eyes up to look at the Boss sitting at the back. Feng Shufen nodded to him and that was enough for him to know that he has to keep going.
Soon the car halted at Cygnus International School. Li Xue looked at the man and said, "President Feng, you don't have to come inside. It will be a trouble for you. I will go, pick her up and then come back"
She said and then without giving any time to him, she pushed the door open and hopped out. It would really look bad if she made him do all these works for her. He was an angel figure of her little girl and that was enough, she can't let the people around think something else.
But as she stepped out, Feng Shufen too followed her suit. "It's okay. I can come along with you. The Principal has called me before so it will only be right if I go in and see if everything is right"
The Principal has called him! Why?
"Sorry, but did you say that the principal has called you?" she asked, not knowing why he was linked into all this. He was just here today to drop the little girl off. Then calling him gives no sense to her.
The man simply nodded, finding nothing wrong in the scene. "Yes, she called me earlier to ask if I will be coming to pick WeiWei up or not"
"Why?" she asked, not looking at the tone she was using. It felt like she was rightfully demanding him to explain to her the things that she was not able to get. "Ah … I mean why did she call you it's not like that you have been here at the process of admission or your name has been filled in the name of legal guardian's column, so I don't understand why they are bothering you with all this"
The man felt a wave of satisfaction wash over him when he felt her getting more closer and comfortable around him. Unknowingly, his lips tugged a little upwards. "Well! I also have no idea. Let's go in and find it out together" he said, putting his hand inside the front pockets of his dress pants and then gesturing to her to come with him.
Li Xue nodded too and then the two made their way inside. "I am sorry for troubling you", she said feeling really apologetic from her heart. She has never thought that their presence will start creating trouble for him. But she also felt grateful that even after being so troublesome for him, he was still being so kind to her and her daughter.
