Chapter 1400: Always the priority I would choose over anything.
Li Xue was herself amazed with the news of her pregnancy. She might have been confused until she didn't remember how things had happened. But now that she had remembered it all, she was having a hard time controlling the blush from getting on her cheeks.
This baby was a treasure that she had been wishing for in her life. And now that it has finally gotten fulfilled, she doesn't know how she should contain her emotions. She wanted to share it with the man who gave her this happiness but then again, she couldn't miss the chance of letting him guess the news himself.
Staring expectantly at Feng Shufen, Li Xue waited to hear his reaction. But when she saw his reaction going against what she expected, her brows furrowed and she asked, "What happened?"
Feng Shufen shook his head and rejected, "Nothing. Don't worry about the hospital, I will take care of it. Also, the news won't stay long in the media. It will also be taken care of." He said, and Li Xue was left all dumbfounded.
She opened her mouth to speak but then nothing came out. Although she has presented her words that way, it was definitely not what she meant. She simply wanted him to guess it and then get excited about it, same as her. But now things didn't seem to go according to what she had thought.
On the other hand, Feng Shufen didn't wait for another second. He dialed Gao Fan's number and soon ordered, "Look who all are involved in the things that happened today. Also, about the media, you know what you have to do. Tomorrow…"
"Are you crazy?" Before he could complete it, Li Xue interrupted him and he paused. He stared at her in puzzlement and seeing him like that, she continued, "Mr. Beelzebub, I said I am pregnant with our baby and you are here talking about stopping the news. Do you think that's more important?"
She said and Feng Shufen looked at her with some seriousness. "You haven't yet achieved what you have dreamed of. Your dream and career are important."
He said and before he could even properly put a full stop to his sentence, Li Xue interrupted, "Not more important than our baby, Shufen." She said, her voice coming all soft and content.
Walking a step, she slowly took the phone and said, "Gao Fan, you can continue your work as of now. If there is something that needs to be done, we will give you a call." She said and hearing a dazed hum come from the other end of the call, she disconnected the call the next second before bringing her attention back to Feng Shufen.
Keeping his phone back in his pocket, she asked, "So where were we?"
"..." Feng Shufen didn't speak, rather looked at her, letting her continue.
Li Xue also didn't mind taking the initiativeness. After all, she didn't think that she could delay this topic anymore. She needed to find out the man's thoughts regarding their baby. Taking his hands, she placed it on her tummy.
"This is ours. Do you think for me anything could be more important than this?" She said and Feng Shufen stared down at her stomach before looking up at her. He didn't say anything, rather just stared at her as if letting her take the decision for both of them.
If it had been any other situation, Li Xue would have felt warm about it. But regarding their baby she doesn't want to be so liberal. So, seeing him unresponsive, she felt a pierce in her heart. Not able to take that twitching sweet pain for long, she asked, "Shufen, do you not care? Do you not want our baby?"
When she asked that, she simply prayed that he wouldn't be too true with his words. She doesn't want him to say that he didn't care or feel anything about it. After all, this one was no other but the little bundle which they created together with love.
Feng Shufen didn't want to scare her. He was just too overwhelmed by the news. Even though he wanted to celebrate the happiness, he dared not think to ignore his supreme priority. So, before thinking about anything else, he thought of settling the things for Li Xue.
But never did he expect that it would be taken otherwise by Li Xue. When he saw the tears almost appearing at the corner, he reached out to cup his cheeks and said, "If that's ours, how can I not want it?"
"But you were not at all happy about it?"
Feng Shufen shook his head. "I was happy. It was just that more than anything or anyone else, you are my priority. I wanted to settle things for you before deciding anything else."
Li Xue shook her head. "You don't need to settle things for me. I just wanted to share the news with you so I chose to speak like that. I didn't actually mean to sue the hospital and others. Why do you have to take it so seriously."
"It's regarding you, how can I take it easy?" He said and with his continuous cajoling words like that, Li Xue could no longer dare to look into his eyes. So, she leaned on him before wrapping her arms around him to murmur.
"That's enough. Now don't say it more otherwise I would feel like you will mistreat our baby in future. How can you put me as your priority? For parents, it should always be their children first." Li Xue said, almost hiding her face on his chest. It felt good returning back to the same embrace that felt home to her.
Feng Shufen also smiled slightly. In response to her hug, his arms as well went to get wrapped around him as he said, "I became a parent only because you came to my life. How can I forget you and choose them? They would be dear to me but that would be because you would be the source of them. So, no matter what you say, you would always be the priority I would choose over anything."
He said and Li Xue couldn't help but smile at his reason.
