With one hand on her waist and the other on her neck, Feng Shufen's kiss began sweetly, maintaining a rhythm. Li Xue didn't know when she got into the beat of that rhythm but as per the need, her lips also moved in the synchronicity with his. She melted in the moment of passion, waiting for it to reach another level. But …
Although the kiss held the passion, it wasn't steamy at all. Instead, it was more like the one that will keep you satisfied but at the same time desperate for more.
Li Xue was suffering the same. Although it was a surprise for her, the more their moment evolved, the more she forgot from where they began. The only thing that kept pressing her points was the desperation that the sweet kiss was bringing to her. She didn't realize that it was a tease until Feng Shufen pulled away from her, leaving her all lost in need.
"…" Her gaze had turned all misty but even in that blurriness, she could clearly see the soft as well as chiseled features of the man. Furrowing her brows in confusion, she stared at him as if waiting to hear his plans.
Feng Shufen understood her gaze too. More like he could read her expressions already. But to her every expression, he remained all nonchalant before slowly providing her with the explanation she was waiting for.
"I definitely wouldn't like to see you getting more tired than you already are." He said softly before helping her get back on her heel all well. His lips slowly pulled up in a smirk as looking at him like that, Li Xue's eyes widened first in disbelief than in accusation.
Her breath was slightly heavy but it didn't take long for her to normalize it back. "Mr. Beelzebub, was that actually what you wanted to do? Was it your revenge on me?" She asked, stepping a step back to point a finger at him.
Feng Shufen proper-ed his not-too-wrinkled clothes before pulling the pushed chair back at the desk. Keeping his arms all stylishly over the wooden plank of the desk, he turned slightly to question back the woman in her own used tone of playfulness from before. "Revenge on you? Did you do something to me for which I craved the revenge from you?" He asked, and in his tone, devilishness could easily be heard.
Li Xue stared at him and opened her lips to say something. But in the end, looking deep into his eyes, nothing came out.
Feng Shufen saw her having a hard time like that and couldn't help but give a sly smile on the corners of his lips. "And as for my planned actions for you … I don't think even if I had some before, it would be appropriate to proceed with WeiWei sleeping here. After all, it might get awk if she wakes up when we are …"
Before he could complete, Li Xue pressed her hands on her ears in embarrassment. "Ehh … Mr. Beelzebub! What are you saying? Have some filters at least. We have a little kid sleeping here."
She almost screamed but to her suppressed voice like that Feng Shufen remained calm. Innocently, looking up at her, he trailed to look at WeiWei on the couch before shrugging off his shoulders. "What are you even thinking? I was saying that if we talk more and WeiWei wakes up, it would be awkward for us to explain to her why we are working this late at night. And why did we not fall asleep yet? Remember, for your better recovery, she has set a schedule for you."
He spoke all logically, but both he and Li Xue knew that none of those words were in his intentions before. This was just another escape trap where no matter how Li Xue reasons, she would be the one getting locked up.
"Mr. Beelzebubm, you …"
"Mama! Are you back already?"
Before Li Xue could speak, a sleepy voice from behind paused her. She turned to look back only to find her princess, getting up slowly while rubbing her eyes to clear her sight.
Li Xue walked up to her and hummed, "Mhm, sweetheart. I came a long way back but you were sleeping so I didn't wake you up." She said softly, before tugging her daughter's little strand of hair behind her ears.
WeiWei looked up at her mother. Her lips were pulled into a pout and given her sleep-driven gaze, it was hard to tell if she had even woken up or was still in sleep. "If Mama came long back, why have you not yet asleep? What is the time on the clock?" She asked as then turning her head, she looked up at the clock that read 23 hours.
"Mama, it's already so late. Why have you not slept yet? Did you forget that WeiWei has set a schedule for your recovery?" She asked and pursing her lips, Li Xue could only turn to look at Feng Shufen, who was suppressing his chuckle clearly.
"…" This man has not just known well to tease her but has also known the ways to escape from the blame. Could she even accuse him of his words of tease before? No, not at all. Especially not after her little devil mimicked the exact words that he forecasted moments ago.
But she would also not let it slide off easily. She would make the man regret it as well. He wanted to tease her. Fine, she got teased. Now, it was his turn.
"Mama? Did you forget?" When Little Li Wei found her mother trancing off in her own thoughts, tugging onto her sleeves, she asked again. And Li Xue shook her head.
"No, sweetie. How could I forget? I was simply going to sleep now but was thinking how I should wake you up. But now, that you are all awake. Let's go back to your room and we will sleep." She said, before turning to give a look to the man.
Little Li Wei didn't have time to notice the expression on the face of her mother. She was already halfway in sleep so when heard her mother saying something about sleeping together, she spoke, "Mama, although WeiWei loves to sleep with you, she would do it in the afternoon. For the night, accompany Daddy Angel. That way he would be able to have good sleep and he would be able to work well the next day."
She said and before Li Xue could react to her words, the girl was already on her feet, ready to bid night to her parents. "Now Mama, since it is already late, WeiWei will go first in the room. But you also don't stay here for long." She said then turning to Feng Shufen, she added, "Daddy Angel, look after Mama. I am lending her to you, so sleep well. Nighty-night!" She said and then seeing Feng Shufen nod, she was already off the room.
Li Xue was all speechless. She was getting lent to people so easily that she, herself, didn't know how to react. She turned to look at Feng Shufen, only to find him full of smug.
"Do you have something to say?" Feng Shufen asked. His words were clearly to pick on the woman's nerves.
But Li Xue simply shook her head, already accepting her defeat. How could she even win when two of these people get on the same team to defeat her? "Have you left me in the position to say anything, Mr. Beelzebub? Come on! Let's go and sleep together."
Feng Shufen smiled before closing all his files and laptop to say, "With pleasure!"
