When heard Feng Yi Lan taking the na of her mother, Little WeiWei was quick to get down from her chair to reach her side to tug on her sleeves.
Feng Yi Lan looked at her and understood what she was trying to say. Nodding to her, she pulled down her phone and kept on the speaker to continue, "Li Xue, you know it's my wedding in a few days. I have a hell of a lot of things to decide but you are still missing out on my plans. Didn't we decide that you will help decide everything and help choose my wedding gown? Then how co you are missing now. Don't say that after getting to the palace and becoming the princess you forgot your best friend."
She spoke and looked at the face of her little niece. The eagerness to hear back the voice she had grown with was evident in her innocent features. Anyone's heart would drop seeing the desperation in her gray eyes, but still, the strength with which WeiWei held herself strong was really comndable. Even elders were not capable of holding their pains and sorrows this beautifully. No doubt she was the daughter of her mother. She has learned from her.
"Yi Lan, it's so early in the morning. What do you have to sort out this ti? Do you think any stores would be open now?" Li Xue spoke from the other side and Feng Yi Lan only pursed her lips.
"Girl, don't give excuses. Just tell will you be coming or not?"
"Yi Lan, where do you want to co? Have you planned sothing? Tell , and later, I will make so ti to be there."
Li Xue said and Feng Yi Lan frowned, "Make so ti to be there? It's the weekend, Li Xue. Do you have work?"
"It's nothing major. But later Sister Xinyi made so arrangents for . She wants to visit and complete the remaining of so job. So, I need to visit the company."
"Is it L.S costics again?" Feng Yi Lan asked, her frown deepening.
Li Xue laughed but didn't deny it. "So small things are left, so they have given a call to co. They want to launch their product on a large market scale, it's nothing else. Don't think too much."
"Do you take as dumb, Li Xue? The CEO of L.S costics is clearly hitting on you and you want to believe it just for the product launch?"
"Yi Lan, I am a young woman. For how long will I escape? People will get interested in and they will approach . Do you want to be a saint for my whole life?" Li Xue said from the other end and Feng Yi Lan could be heard subtly smiling.
She pouted, "I know Li Xue. But I just want to tell you that you deserve a much better man in your life. Don't focus on wallflowers. Just search for the right one. Furthermore, CEO Bai from L.S costics is not even up to your mark."
"Yi Lan, CEO Bai has recently received all the praises for his looks and caliber, do you really have to refer to him as a wallflower? Do you have to insult him like that? And if he is a wallflower, do you want to chase after your brother to get the best out of the world?" She said from the other end with a small laugh but her words paused Yi Lan in her tracks.
She didn't speak and when Li Xue sensed her silence, she paused, "Yi Lan, you are still there?" She asked and WeiWei quickly tugged on Feng Yi Lan's sleeves to make her respond.
"Oh yeah, I am still here. I was just thinking of what you said. Actually, you got it right. Chase after my brother. Didn't you have a crush on him back in the days? Why not give it a try?" Feng Yi Lan said and didn't hear anything from the other side for a good mont of ti.
But after a minute or so, Li Xue snapped, "Yi Lan, you are crazy. You want to tempt the devil. Do you think I can do it?"
Feng Yi Lan shrugged with confidence while her words held a hidden aning as well, "Except you, I don't think anyone else is capable of doing it."
"Yi Lan, you have gone crazy. I …" Li Xue laughed out thinking it to be a fun talk but then she paused. Taking a small while she said, "Yi Lan, I will catch up with you later. CEO Bai is calling at the mont. I think I should take his call. Send the location later. I will be there to help you." She said and then quickly disconnected the call.
While Feng Yi Lan sulked at the ntion of Bai Yuchen again. In an actual sense, she had no issues with him, but she knew that he was pursuing Li Xue diligently and that was giving her stress. If her brother remained stubborn for long, he would definitely be making his life hell without Li Xue. And that would be quite scary.
When WeiWei saw Feng Yi Lan lost in her thoughts, she quickly patted her hands and said, "Aunt Yi Lan, you don't have to worry. Mama once said that the heart never forgets to love once it has loved soone. As long as we bring Mama and Daddy Angel together, she will rember him."
She said and Feng Yi Lan pursed her lips. She didn't want to demoralize the little one but she knew this wouldn't be an easy thing to do. "Are you sure of that, chipmunk?"
She asked, and the little head nodded profusely at once. "Mama had never lied to WeiWei. Since she has said it, it must be the truth."
"But it would be a tough job and also scary, given your Daddy Angel's stubborn attitude."
Little WeiWei shook her head. "With WeiWei around, it would be all fine."
And in the end, Feng Yi Lan could only give in. "Aiyahh, then let's not ponder more on the negativity. Let's be positive and make them et again and again as we have planned. Okay, partner?"
"Yes, partner!" WeiWei gave a high five clap to Feng Yi Lan as they cheered for their plans.
After a while, the little girl went up to her room to study for so ti while Feng Yi Lan pulled out her phone to give Qi Shuai a call.
The call rang for a while before it went through. And from the other end, the groggy voice of Qi Shuai was heard.
"LanLan, what happened? Are you fine?" He asked and Feng Yi Lan simply pursed his lips.
"I should be asking this to you because you sound otherwise. Why are you asking this?"
Qi Shuai looked at the icy-faced man working in front of him and gave a small laugh, "Haha … what could happen to ? I am fine. It's just that I was working very diligently when you called so my voice sounded like that. Otherwise, I am just fine, there is nothing to worry about. Feng Internationals are treating their employees best."
"Who is worrying about you? I just made a call to let you know that in a few days we will be having a wedding. At the wedding stage, I don't want to take an oath with a zombie. So, before that, you better get back to your charms or I will cancel it all."
She said and her threat like that rendered Qi Shuai all speechless for a while. "LanLan, what are you speaking? The company needs the employees to work overti now. Being the director, how can I step back from my duty?"
"I didn't ask you to. Work and beco a machine like my brother. It's just that I am not interested in marrying a machine, so stated how I would like my groom."
"LanLan, I …"
"Anyway, is my brother there?" Feng Yi Lan cut the chase short and asked directly. Qi Shuai raised her eyes and saw Feng Shufen working, sitting behind his exclusive ebony desk while Gao Fan was briefing him over so projects.
"Yes, he is here. Why? Do you have sothing? LanLan, he is not in his best mood, you better not drop by and irritate him." Qi Shuai said, given the past visits of Yi Lan to the company.
"Do you think I have so much free ti? I am later going to choose my wedding gown; I don't have to co and nag the people who won't even listen to ." She said and Qi Shuai felt her nerves were at the edge.
"So, why are you asking, LanLan? Do you need to co and help you select the wedding gown?" He asked in a coaxing tone, only to hear her snap from the other side.
"No need. I am taking WeiWei along. As for you, just go and keep the phone on speaker in front of my brother. I want to tell him sothing."
She said and Qi Shuai sighed, "LanLan, he …"
"It's just a few words. It won't take too much ti. So, help keep it on speaker. I will just inform him that later I will be taking WeiWei along to the shopping center." She said, and, in the end, Qi Shuai could only stand and walk up to Shufen's desk before putting the phone in front of him with the speaker on.
"Yeah, you can begin now. I have put the phone on speaker LanLan."
He said, and Feng Yi Lan didn't speak for a good ti. Just when Qi Shuai was about to speak to ask her if she was still there, her voice ca.
"Brother, I won't urge you again. I will only warn you one last ti. Please understand the urgency before it gets too late. Li Xue is not soone who would stay single forever. With n pursuing her, sooner or later, she would accept one of them. Especially if the efforts of so diligent lover as CEO Bai flutters her heart. I heard he is leaving no stone unturned in pursuing her. He might beco your competitor when the ti arrives and you get too late for it."
She said, and Qi Shuai and Gao Fan felt the temperature drop in the office room. Before it could get too late, Qi Shuai rushed up to get his phone back in his hands and spoke. "Fine, he has heard you. Now, go and choose the best wedding gown for yourself. I will give you a call later." He said and then disconnected the call.
