Chapter 247 - Win the championship at the end.

Feng Shufen's expression darkened when heard Yi Lan's making Li Xue match-make with some other men. He has never taken Li Xue to be his possession like some asset but that doesn't scratch out the fact that he was overly possessive over her. Not only possessive rather with her in the question, his every emotion multiplies a hundredfold.

"Dare to question my words and I will make sure that you have a good tour to cities all around the world where you have got your brand stores located," He said, pressing his lips in a thin line, making Yi Lan flinch and silent in just a moment.

Yi Lan wanted to stomp her feet on the ground and complain that her brother was not playing fair. But seeing his fierce, sterling grey eyes she could not bring herself any strength to. Opening and closing her mouth she tried to give several attempts but still …

At this moment a soft but stern, challenging voice interrupted the man's words, without any prior notice. "You better not try any such thing!" Li Xue's eyes suddenly got darkened, as her arms moved to cross at her front. Her glare was clearly intended to threaten the man.

This was unexpected but was something that amused him. His eyes shined to show his interest in her fierceness. He was not offended but rather looked impressed with her.

Feng Yi Lan felt her jaw drop at the scene. Was her brother really smiling? Smiling at his own insult? Wait, he considered threatening as an act of insult, right?

Was he the same Feng Shufen, who never tolerated anyone raising their eyes at him? But today, he was letting a woman raise both eyes and voice against him.

But again it's not any woman. It was her dear Li Xue. Of course, she was capable of reining the master of the Devil. Her brother was still just a mere Devil.

She pouted and instantly went to snuggle behind her friend, the same as the child who runs off to her mother when her father bullies her wrongly.

Li Xue acting like a protective mother instantly put her arm to guard her friend behind as she said, "Never try to threaten Yi Lan like that. It was not her fault, to begin with. She was just unknown to our relationship"

"Are you defending her?" Feng Shufen asked as he stood up to compliment the height of his woman.

"I am not defending anyone, rather just stating the facts. I did not get time to let Yi Lan know that we have got together. So technically it's my fault, not hers" she said as her words ended with some guilt towards the end.

Shufen smiled when saw her accepting her fault. Taking his steps to reach her, he gently lifted his arms to pull her chin gently up to look into her eyes. "You were not at fault anywhere. Don't blame yourself. You were just playing around." As he finished his words, his fingers went to comb her lovingly.

Feng Yi Lan was speechless out of wits. She was still standing behind Li Xue. And seeing her brother acting so sweet and doting from such close proximity was making her feel dizzy. This definitely can't be her brother. Can he be?

When did he change so much? She could not feel even an ounce of coldness in his aura right now when this brother was known to be a personality who loved to live in the chilled, icy winds of Antarctica.

Right at this moment, he was completely behaving out of his character.

Li Xue could also feel the sweetness in the air but she was not even an ounce surprised with that because with her Mr Beelzebub has always been like this. Nodding her head to him, she smiled and then turned on her heels to explain the things to her friend.

But before she could even say anything, Feng Yi Lan got the point. "Li Xue are you really together with my Devil Brother?" when she said, her eyes went to make contact with Feng Shufen. It was his usual warning glare. But this time, Feng Yi Lan did not step down.

Why should she care? She has her Li Xue this time to support her against her brother.

Li Xue looked at her. Scratching the back of her neck slightly, she nodded, accepting her words. "Yes, we got together last week". She said and then closed her eyes, preventing herself from looking at her friend's sharp reaction.

Hearing her agree, Yi Lan so wanted to bang her head in the wall. "Why Li Xue? How can you forget my warning? I have made sure to make you memorize that when we were back in our high school. How can you still fall in his trap?"

Feng Shufen's eyes darkened as he heard her sister. She has asked Li Xue to avoid him from the first day itself, even years before they met. She dared to pair her up with someone else, even without thinking that he might also be interested in her. And now again she was trying to operate her plans daringly in front of his face.

An audaciousness that he was definitely not going to forgive!

"Yi Lan, he is not that bad", Li Xue simply defended the man with the simplest reason.

"How can you say that? You don't know him properly. It's me who has seen his coldness for years."

"Yi Lan, I like him. And … and that's how the things are now", Li Xue said with a smile. She knew her friend cared for her and also knew that she loved her brother dearly. But she has never thought that she would choose her concern for her over her brother's love.

She felt so warm seeing her like this. Maybe her belief in friendship has drawn too low because of Wen Sying that she almost forgot that she still had a friend like Yi Lan in her life.

When Feng Yi Lan heard her Li Xue defending her brother, she pouted her lips out childishly as she complained, "How can you side with my brother, Li Xue. He bullies me so much. Whom should I rely on if you also left me alone. He will bully me again. No, no you can't be with him".

Li Xue sighed seeing her friend getting back on her childish instincts. Her sad, pleading eyes make her give in right away. "He won't bully you anymore. And I will make sure of it, don't worry!"

She promised as she turned to look back at the man who was having a nonchalant expression on his face. Though he looked serious as usual, Li Xue can see that he was not taking her words with any seriousness.

To make him know how serious she was she simply smiled at him and then turned back to her friend, she said, "If he tries to do any such thing, then I will make sure that I just don't play around like this time rather make sure to win the championship at the end."

As she finished her words, Feng Shufen's face got darkened like the bottom of the pot.
