Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

While Qi Shuai was trying to think what Feng Shufen was up to, the lights of the room were suddenly dimmed, making people wonder what was happening.

"Aye, Shufen, I think it's starting. Do you have any plans? Just tell me, don't keep it away from me now. Otherwise, I won't be able to help." Qi Shuai almost panicked.

But Feng Shufen didn't say anything. Qi Shuai even turned to look at his face but the darkness in which the room fell suddenly made it impossible for him to get even a hint of his expression.

In the end, he had no other choice but to be like others, who were waiting there to see the show unfold.

Li Xue also got perplexed slightly but then realizing that she could also be a way to introduce the products, she thought it to be normal.

Soon in the pitch darkness of the hall, the focus light flashed over Bai Yuchen. Everyone applauded while he clapped his hands as well before beginning his words. "Good evening, everyone. Thank you for taking out some of your precious time to come here to celebrate the success of LS cosmetics. But let me tell you this evening is not just about LS Cosmetics product launch in the international market line. There is one thing more special about today." He said and others clapped at his words showing their share of diligence.

"But then again, I will take it step-wise. Let me announce the launch of LS Cosmetics first and then I will tell you what else is special tonight." He said before gesturing to his secretary to start.

And next, at the screen front the video of the launch was displayed and one of the employees from the company went to give the presentation. Slides moved and soon the product launch was over. The guests cheered while the reporters went to take pictures of the main holders of the company. Li Xue was also busy with people around. Since she was the brand ambassador of the products, special attention was doomed to come to her.

Taking a few of her words, everyone was in their own world of targets when suddenly the voice from the mike rang again, garnering everyone's attention back to the stage.

And there Bai Yuchen stood again, flaunting his charms. His eyes matched with everyone before finally stopping at Li Xue. "Once again hello everyone. As I said earlier, this evening is about two things. Since I have already announced the first important news, it's time for me to reveal the second important thing."

"Actually, this isn't second to be honest, rather something much more important than anything in my life. Today, it's time for me to show my courage. Courage to bare my heart in front of the woman I have fallen badly for."

"I don't know how things will end up today, but I know well that this is my last opportunity which I don't want to miss. So, making you all witness it, I will confess my feelings to her. Hope, you guys can cheer for me." He said and then handed over his mike to his secretary before getting down from the stage.

Although the name was never mentioned explicitly, still almost everyone in the room knew which woman he was mentioning to. So, the moment Bai Yuchen got down the stage, their eyes instantly turned to look at Li Xue before getting back to the man.

Li Xue's expression turned cold when she realized what was going to happen next. Her fist clenched as her eyes darted to look at someone in the distant crowd. Her amber matched the pair of grays and even without saying anything several words seemed to have been exchanged.

"Such an asshole. What is he pretending to be? Does he not know confessing to a girl in public like this is simply harassment when he knows that her consent has never been there?" Qi Shuai also cursed. But when he turned to look at Feng Shufen on his side, he was all dumbfounded.

Feng Shufen was not there. Where did he go?

Getting puzzled, he looked around only to find the silhouette of Feng Shufen already walking through the midst of the crowd. "Where is he going?" Qi Shuai's brows jutted as he simply stared in the direction he was walking towards.

By that time, Bai Yuchen was reached, Feng Shufen was still a few steps away from Li Xue. And that gave him the opportunity to get on his knees without any interruption.

Pulling out a brocade box from his pocket, he said, "Li Xue, I never tend to hide my feelings from you. You must have already known by now how much I have you in my heart. But maybe somewhere I was still lagging behind and that is why I wasn't able to communicate my feelings to you."

"So today, with all my best efforts, I thought to do the honor. Please consider me. I really like you and have already planned to spend my life with you. Will you accept me?" He said and even though his words were something many girls would die for; it hardly brought any change in the expressions of Li Xue.

It felt like not even a part of her heart was moved. Li Xue simply stared down at him, her expression all poker and stiff. "CEO Bai, you need not have to do this. I have already stated myself very clearly before."

"Li Xue, I wanted to do this. This was my last opportunity; I didn't want to miss it. Furthermore, if you are concerned about your career, we will talk about that later. For your future you don't have to reject me so eagerly." He said and Li Xue looked at him for a moment, before giving out a cold chuckle.

Her small chuckle like that was enough to send shivers down people's spines. Bai Yuchen was taken aback by that. But before he could even reach it, Li Xue spoke, "You have got a great misconception, CEO Bai. I wasn't rejecting you for my career. When I rejected you, it only meant one thing. And that was we are not meant to be together. Please don't get offended. But I have to make it clear today as I can't see my boyfriend having a sour mood because of it."

She said and the next moment, her eyes went straight to stare at the man who has come to stand just behind Bai Yuchen.
