Chapter 1346 Have we met before?
When Li Xue came out with WeiWei in arms, Feng Shufen accompanied her, walking beside her. Just as he came out, a black Maybach came to stop for him at the front.Du Fan stepped out from the driver's seat and was stunned for a moment. He stared at Li Xue who was carrying the little girl in her arms and his eyes unknowingly teared up at the sight. "Madam …"
He thought about saying something but then paused before rushing forward to open the door first.
Feng Shufen saw him opening the door and then turned to take WeiWei from her arms. But just when he could reach her, Li Xue turned to look at him. "You would have to move aside a bit, I guess."
He frowned but before he could understand what she was up to, she curled her lips slightly on the corners before walking past him to swiftly get inside the car.
Then looking up at Du Fan, she said with a polite smile, "You can close the door on this side and open the door on the other side for your boss. Thank you."
Du Fan couldn't understand what was going on. For a moment, he had thought that everything had gone normal, but sensing things after some time, he doesn't feel the same. He turned to look at Feng Shufen, only to find him standing rigid at his place.
"Young Master!"
"Get back to your seat and drive us home." Feng Shufen said before walking to the other side and getting in the car the other moment.
Du Fan was perplexed but there wasn't anything he could do. So, in the end, he got into the car and drove it as ordered.
Li Xue looked around the car curiously. Although she could tell the interiors of the car were custom-designed, for some reason she found it very familiar as if this wasn't her first time sitting in it, rather, she had sat comfortably there many times. But then, this was just another Maybach. Maybe it wasn't as different as the one she had driven before.
Slowly caressing the back of the little one in her arms, she asked, "WeiWei, do you want to sit comfortably on the seat?"
The little girl had still wrapped herself around her. But when she heard her mother ask her, she pulled back a little to look at her face and blink her eyes full of innocence. "Are your arms hurting, Mama?"
Although hearing her calling her Mama again, Li Xue felt a bit strange, still not pointing it out, she shook her head. "Nope, but why are you asking this baby?"
Little WeiWei stared at her face before reaching out to cup her face. "Then will you be uncomfortable holding me a while longer in your arms? I like staying in your embrace. I have missed it. So, can I stay like this longer?"
Li Xue felt an unknown pang in her heart, but hiding it behind her smile, she shook her head. "There is nothing to make me uncomfortable, sweetie. You can stay like this until you feel good. I guess the ride back to your house would be long. Sleep on my lap while leaning on me, you will be more comfortable." She said, before helping her adjust to the position.
Once it was good, she patted her head slowly before caressing her hair. And after that, it didn't take long before WeiWei slept like that. Li Xue also didn't realize it until she felt her even breathing on herself. She assumed the little one was either too exhausted or had not been sleeping properly recently to make her doze off in deep slumber this easily.
But wasn't this little one too small, how come she can't sleep properly at such a young age? Was it about her mother whom she has been missing all this while?
As she thought it like that, she turned to look at the man on her side. He has been looking out of the window. She doesn't know the reason but for some cause, she felt like he was avoiding looking at her. Was there something wrong with her face?
She unconsciously touched her face before looking at herself in the mirror in front. But finding nothing wrong, she sighed before looking back at him to say, "President Feng, you might not know me. I am Li Xue, Feng Yi Lan's friend. I came to the mall earlier to help her with the shopping but just reaching there I came to know that the little one has gone missing."
"I was helping her find her when WeWei herself found me. I don't know how but at the same time paparazzi caught us and from there on, you know the things. I didn't intend to accompany you but since she doesn't want to let me go, I couldn't stop myself from carrying her. She is cute and I feel a kind of connection with her. Do you think we have met each other before?"
Li Xue, herself, didn't know what she was saying. She just knew there were a lot of things going on in her head and after meeting the little one and the man, she wanted to present and clear it all. But after saying it all, she only felt that things simply didn't make sense.
When Feng Shufen heard her say it like that, his fingers clenched. She was asking him if they had met before. How was he supposed to answer her?
He turned to look at her. His expression was all firm and serious to her. Li Xue also looked at him, waiting to hear him say anything. But just when he could say anything, she heard her phone ring. The music wasn't too loud but when it rang midst the silence of the car, it was loud enough to make WeiWei stir in her sleep.
Fearing that it could wake the little one up, Li Xue frowned and quickly said, "Can you help me get my phone, please. I came here without informing anyone. They might be anxious." She said and looking at her for a moment with his deep gaze, Feng Shufen reached out to get her phone from her purse.
He helped her receive it before putting it to her ears. Li Xue knew who could be calling her. So, the moment the phone got pressed to her ears, she spoke, "Meng Meng, I have left the mall already. You can take the car and return as well. For the rest of the things, I will call you later." She said and hearing the girl hum vaguely, she gestured to the man to disconnect the call.
Feng Shufen pulled the phone back before disconnecting it for her. Then, keeping the phone back in her bag, he looked at the little one in her arms to say. "She is already asleep. Let me carry her."
Li Xue looked down at the sleeping princess and smiled before shaking her head. "It's okay. She is comfortable this way. Let me carry her for a while longer. Furthermore, a change in arms might wake her up. And that won't be good." She said, and Feng Shufen didn't probe more.
They sat in silence as the car slowly and slowly drove in the direction of the city. She was taken aback for a moment as she asked, "Do you live outside the city?"
Feng Shufen hummed slowly as nodding, he saw the car slowly getting into the forest. Li Xue was confused at first but when she saw it stopping in front of the beautiful house, she was amazed.
The greenery around was perfectly complementing the design.
"Young Master, we are here." Du Fan announced before getting out to open the door for Li Xue first.
Li Xue moved slowly and carefully enough to not wake the little one in her arms. But unconsciously she failed to see the door frame of the car. She was about to get hit by it when suddenly, a hand came to shield her from it.
Li Xue was taken aback for a while but then when she matched the gaze of Feng Shufen, she smiled. This time she didn't miss to notice the expression of anxiousness he held in his eyes. And that was definitely for her. Seemed like they had a history before, which she was unknown about. Her instincts weren't wrong to say.
"Thank you." She suddenly said before getting on her feet and turning to look at the house. "WeiWei has already slept, let me take her to her room." She said and then turning to look at Feng Shufen, she added, "Can you guide me the way?"
She said and the man felt his heart beating fast. For some reason, he felt the things were getting repeated. And feeling that way, he had an urge to hold her in her arms for a moment. But no matter how he thought, the possibility seemed tough at the moment.
