"Yi Lan, you still need 2 weeks more with the cast. Don't be stubborn to remove it just because you have me to tease or others to help. Everything can be managed after you see your health to perfection", Qi Shuai said with a defeated tone.
If it had been someone else, then he would have easily let them know that his command was something not everyone can easily defy. But with her in the question, he could only accept the defeat willingly.
"Didn't you say that people know themselves better than anyone? The same way I know my body better than you. My leg is already healed, and I don't have to wait for another 2 weeks to waste". Yi Lan tried the best trait she has command on. Her stubbornness!
Qi Shuai looked at her. His eyes slowly and slowly getting dark with the dangerous glint. This lady surely knows how to test his nerves to get out his worst. "Yi Lan …" He was about to continue but before he could say any further, another voice with some concern intervened his words, pushing the door of the room open.
"Yi Lan!"
The stiff expression on Yi Lan's face instantly melted as her eyes turned to look at the woman at the door. As if found the oasis in the land of dessert. "Li Xue!" She called out with the love of friendship bond they share in this world. Something that was really rare to find hard in this world.
"Why are you so late here? Do you know how long I have waited to see you?" Yi Lan paused with a pout. "Living with the Devil, have you forgotten all the teaching of us, angels? Huh?"
Li Xue rolled her eyes at her dramatics as she took her steps inside. "Yi Lan, we have met just the last week, yet you are showing it like it has been ages since we last met." She said as her eyes moved to look at the two men standing inside.
When she looked at Su Fai, her lips curled to give a smile while when met the gaze with Director Qi, she caught the look of a defeated lover. Her eyes squinted a little with some doubt but then pushing that wave of doubt somewhere at the back, she greeted with her usual politeness. "Director Qi, good morning!"
"Good morning, Sister – in – law!" Qi Shuai reciprocated back with a smile that was clearly letting her know that something was definitely wrong around. But Li Xue knew well that this was not the time to ask what it was?
"Last week means last weekend and that was 7 days before. Why are you learning the devilishness from my brother when you should in return teach him some good things?" Yi Lan grumbled in a low voice as she saw her brother coming in, holding the pretty little bun in his hold.
"Restrict yourself from getting around wrong influences and good will come to you!" The man said, sauntering inside the room after pushing back the door shut behind him.
"Hey, Brother! Are you calling me a wrong influence for my Li Xue?" Feng Yi Lan fumed, knowing exactly what her brother meant with all those words. Living around him all these years was not a waste. She has learnt a little well from her brother's attitude to tell what his word meant in a situation like this.
Feng Shufen did not say anything. The suitable shot had already been made and no more effort was needed to put in waste.
The little girl standing down on her feet, strained her head to look up her Daddy Angel. Though she has not understood what he meant exactly by his words she has got to understand that he has said something that was useful to learn. After all her Daddy Angel always teaches the best things as he was the best one.
She was about to ask him when suddenly all her attention was taken away hearing the cries from the side. "Li Xue, see my brother is again being rude to me. Are you not going to help your poor friend now?"
Li Xue looked at her and was about to say something when suddenly her eyes caught something jumping its way to her friend. And nothing more was needed.
"Aunt Yi Lan!" WeiWei called out lightly, reaching her sweet aunt. Seeing her aunt upset would put her Mama in a bad mood and her mother has only got a weekend to relax. She would not let her Mama be upset in her relaxation time.
Yi Lan looked at the little one on the floor, who was fiddling her fingers with some confusion. She was looking adorable like that but seeing her like this was giving her an urge to ask what was confusing her this much.
"What happened, chipmunk? What's giving you so much of confusion" she asked, not able to take the cuteness in the air.
"Umm … Mama said that Aunt Yi Lan had hurt her leg a few days back so I was just thinking if my hold would hurt my sweet aunt in any way? I cannot be reckless in any way, especially when my sweet Aunt is in question" The little girl said sweetly, blinking her eyes adorably at her Aunt.
Getting shrouded with the fluffiness of the little princess, Yi Lan has long forgotten the complaint she made to Li Xue against her brother. Pressing her lips shyly together, she curled it up and said wrapping her arms around the little body, "Its okay chipmunk, your Aunt is not hurt anymore. And your soft touches could never hurt me, so it does not matter where you touch me."
She said, pulling the girl up from the ground. Since her leg was still in the cast, pulling the little body up was a little tough. Seeing her trying, Li Xue thought to help her but her concern for Yi Lan was slagged a little when compared to someone else.
Before she could even move, Qi Shuai came forward and helped the little girl up, making her sit beside Yi Lan.
Li Xue was impressed, seeing him that way. Mr Beelzebub was definitely not wrong when he said that Director Qi cares for Yi Lan in a way in which no other could ever do.
