Soon the car pulled up at a local supermarket as Du Fan announced, "Young Master, we are at the supermarket". He said as he looked at Feng Shufen through the rear mirror of the car, waiting for a permission that meant, he could step out of the car to pull open the door for the master.
But before the man could say anything, Li Xue looked out the window and halted him. "Shufen, look there is so much crowd out there. You won't be comfortable in such a crowd. So, there is no need for you to go out. I have checked your refrigerator earlier; it was stuffed with enough food for at least a week for us. There will be no need to buy anything extra."
"And about this devilic – angel, we can take her out another time. I, myself will look when this supermarket is not crowded so that we can come together" She said stressing her eyes at her daughter, warning her to support her in her words.
WeiWei too understood what her mother was asking her to do but she did not want to support her mother in her words. She wanted the world to know that she has now got a Daddy Angel by her side as her Mama has got him as her gift.
Puffing her cheeks a little at her mother, she said in her support but her tone was nowhere showing any assistance to her. "Mama is right Daddy Angel. If the crowd could make you uncomfortable, then WeiWei will come with you again on some other day after many other years, even if that Seafood Stall's Aunt no longer sell her seafood here."
Li Xue raised her brows at her daughter, not understanding what her words intended to say at the scene. This little devil of hers has started getting all skilled in her words the way where she no longer could comprehend her intentions fast enough to react at right time.
"What do you mean sweetie? We can come here next week. Why are you telling that we have to come here after a few years?" she asked, putting a pressed smile on her lips.
Feng Shufen was also on the same page with Li Xue. But he decided to wait till his little piece explain her words on her own.
The little girl slapped her forehead lightly as she said, "Uff ohh Mama! How much I have to make you understand? What would my dear Mama do if God has not sent me to her? You cannot be this innocent to this world, Mama. But it's okay since you will always have me with you".
Li Xue narrowed her eyes at her but unfazed to it the little girl continued her words, "Mama, this is the only supermarket in this area. So, it can never remain uncrowded unless and until any other supermarket is built here. Last day, Daddy Angel was telling me about a business bedtime story related to an ancient monopoly market. There I have noted this point. And in the morning, reading a newspaper with Daddy Angel I came to know that no new supermarket is under construction."
"So, there is no way in which we would find this place uncrowded next week. And if another supermarket is built in the near future then the Seafood Stall's Aunt might or might not be here. That's the reason I said that we would come here after a few years". The little girl said explaining everything patiently to her mother. She has got all her time for her Mama.
Du Fan, who was sitting at the front got his mouth wide agape. He has never thought that a pretty girl as little as her would understand such vast business tactic this easily. It looked like it was just a piece of cake for her. Like business has always been in her blood.
But then again, who was her teacher, to begin with. Could he complain her stream of knowledge at a little age where the water was directly pumped out into her from the vastest ocean? He could only bow down his head in front of this little princess who would definitely be both adored and doted by the masses.
Li Xue at the side no longer had words to spell out. She was all done with her princess. She no more had brains to seek out something to retaliate on her words. Opening her mouth, she was about to say something but the man was in a better speed than her.
"WeiWei, there is no need for you to wait so long. We can go and shop around right at this moment" Feng Shufen said, patting her little head lightly in adoration.
"But we already have the whole refrigerator full at your home. It will be a waste if we could not accommodate the things in it" Li Xue said, not understanding the baseless doting – ness Mr Beelzebub was showing for WeiWei.
Feng Shufen looked at her for some time and then nodded in understanding. "The lady of the house would definitely know the house better".
"Of course, I have to look after it. After all, I am living there and Sister Margaret has taken so much time to make me know everything about the house", Li Xue said, justifying the reasons for her previous words.
"Your point is noted. I will soon order a larger refrigerator for our place and it will be getting fitted in your kitchen before we get home. And about you being worried for me, being uncomfortable here, then don't worry with you and our princess around, I will be more than comfortable." He said, without any expression on his face. Like whatever he was saying was not something unusual rather was the most usual thing he could ever say.
Li Xue was speechless. Could she even say something to his reasons now? Now she knew where her daughter was getting lessons from.
"Now, come, let's go! I still have to go back and cook something for you two at home. With me around, I would not let my two precious ladies have late-night dinner. That's something really unhealthy."
