Li Xue paused in her steps. She recognized her father's voice and turned to look at him with a nonchalant expression. With a small smile, she said, "Yes, Father. It's already getting late, it's better if I return back to my place, my house."
Although her words seed simple, everyone there understood what she actually ant by returning back to her place, her ho.
While Shin Tingming couldn't bring more words to continue the conversation, Chen Rui didn't think about missing the opportunity to explain. So, quickly she said, "Xiao Xue, don't take us wrong but whatever we did was for your good. We didn't an any ill."
She said, and even though Li Xue believed her words, she couldn't let go of the stir of emotions she was feeling inside. Laughing out with so disappointnt in her tone, she said, "For my good? Why was everyone only caring about that? Why did no one care for what was rightful at that ti? Is it because all of you wanted to prove how best you guys could think? That how much do you care for a daughter whom you accepted just recently?"
"Dear, it wasn't like that. We just ..."
Chen Rui could feel the bla in the voice of Li Xue. To help her relieve it she thought to explain again, but halfway, Li Xue cut her off.
Breaking away from the wrap of Feng Shufen, she stepped forward and said, "Ma, out of all, I expected better from you. You know why? Because I thought you have always known the priority of my life. It was not , nor my survival in this world but my daughter, who had brought to the light of life when everyone had pushed into the bottomless pit of darkness. Did you not think about her?"
She asked and her question made Chen Rui's eyes got down with embarrassnt. They had thought about the little one but at that ti when things happened, Li Xue undoubtedly beca their priority. Not because they consider WeiWei any less but because they were so upset with the Fengs that they almost ignored the needs of the little girl.
Seeing Chen Rui getting embarrassed, Li Xue's eyes darted to look at Shin Tingming as she mocked their situational judgnt skills. "You people are all skilled at remaining unbiased still at the ti when you really needed to use that knowledge of yours, you people opted to ignore my precious. She is just a six-year-old girl yet she showed better understanding in than you guys."
"She took care of herself when I was not around so that later I co back to her, I don't feel sad. Do you think we should expect so much sensibility from a little girl like her? In her whole life, she has never stayed away from even for 24 hrs and you guys made her live away from for more than a month. Do you think it has been easy for that? For Heaven's sake, she is just six years old, who got trauma seeing experiencing so much in front of eyes when you all were not there. Do you not even think a percent about her?"
Li Xue said, and her each and every word pierced Shin Tingming and Chen Rui. "Xiao Xue, you are putting it right but at that ti that was all we thought of. You had already lost your mory. How do you expect us to make you rember her? At that ti, even the doctors have clearly said that even a bit of stress could turn out to be fatal?"
Li Xue heard and paused for a mont before breaking out in soft laughter. "Fatal! Fine, I understand your point. But can you vouch that you really think there was no better way at that mont."
"..." Shin Tingming was left wordless. His eyes turned to look at Feng Shufen and slowly, his gaze turned cold. Although there was guilt in his gaze for what he did to WeiWei, still he was not ready to accept Feng Shufen in the favorable light.
While Feng Shufen remained nonchalant to his gaze, Li Xue noticed it as well. Knowing what that gaze was all about, she spoke, "Pa, I know you kept as your priority but you don't have to bla Shufen for anything. My situation didn't turn out because of him. It was Zhang Xiaotong. She had so ntal issues that I got to learn from her assistant that day. Shufen might have been a topic between us, but that doesn't make him the reason I had to suffer all that. So please don't resent him for sothing that he was not involved in."
"You are too innocent to think like that, Xiao Xue. If only he had known how to keep you safe, that insane girl wouldn't have been able to harm you." Shin Tingming said and Li Xue shook her head.
But then she didn't explain much. For so reason, she didn't want to be too words. So, in the end she said, "Your words are solely from your perception, Pa. I can't change it but I would like you to re-read the situation. Would your attitude have been the sa if things had happened with Shufen and I would have beco the indirect reason for it?"
"Xiao Xue, you have always been sensible." Shin Tingming retorted. But Li Xue simply smiled at his retort.
"You still haven't known , Pa. The number of problems I brought to him was nothing compared to what you might think. He has always been patient with . And that's why you can see what I am today. Otherwise, it would have simply not been possible." She said and then adoringly turned to look at Feng Shufen. Her eyes glittered with gratitude.
Then turning back to Shin Tingming and Chen Rui, she said, "I won't bla you for things that happened in the past for long. But you should also know that it won't be easy for to forget all these so easily. In the end I would only say, give so ti to settle down. I will co to et you on my own. Until then, I just want to focus on my family whom I have missed all this while."
She said and then, pressing a smile, she went back to stand beside Feng Shufen before hooking her arms with him. Looking up at him, she said, "WeiWei must be waiting for us. Let's head back to Our Paradise."
