Chapter 16 - Safe in his embrace

' Ring -- ring --- ring', school bell sound.

The Teacher collected the papers and left the class, the students scattered over here there to inquire about the questions. Chen Ai came near Yue Wan, "let's have a treat in a new patisserie cafe near our school", her eyes were shooting stars over Yue Wan.

Yue Wan led a helpless smile and said, "you glutton piglet, the only thing in your mind is food".

Chen Ai puffed her cheek, "come on, it's hard to get a reservation".

Yue Wan and Chen Ai left the class while Wei Wan glaring daggers over her, 'this bitch, today I will teach her some lessons, but it was interrupted by a message from her mother.

'From Mom: Come home, he is angry'.

Wei Wan looked at that two happy left the class, she grinned down with unhappiness.

'To Mom: Ok.'

--- Yue home --

After pacifying Little spring with lots of sweets, she bought some pastry and returned home before 6 pm.

Upon entering her home, she saw Uncle Wang at the entrance, "Young Miss your back ".

"Uncle Wang, where are a daddy and big brother?", she let the new maid take her bag while she took the pastry to the kitchen.

Uncle Wang followed Yue Wan and said, "Young Master said he will be late and Master Yue will be here in any moment".

"Alright then, inform me once daddy is back. I need to refresh ", Yue Wan walked to her room after she placed it in the fridge. Right after her bath, she heard her dad's voice, "looks like daddy is back", she wore her nightshirt and went down.

In the hall, Uncle Wang was trying to appease his Master Yue yet he was failing, now only Young Miss can help them."That brat lets me travel while he is planning to steal my little Wan, I will teach him a lesson today", Yue Yeager was throwing fit nonstop.

"Daddy your back ", Yue Wan came down with a beautiful smile.

Yue Yeager got blessed by this beautiful scene, and it made him forget about that cunning rascal. "My Little Wan, how was your school today. Did you miss daddy?"

Yue Wan grinned with a wide smile, "Daddy, today I took the exam seriously and I missed you a lot", she felt a lot safer in her father embrace.

Yue Yeager gleamed in joy, "Only Little Wan care about daddy and that sneaky brat made daddy to go around and around the city like 20 times. Look at my poor back got bruised over by sitting all day".

Yue Wan Sweatdrop at his antics, "Don't be mad now, how about we eat your favorite pastry, ok". She looked over the kitchen staff, "prepare a tasty feast today".

Yue Wan asked her dad to take a quick refresher and come to the dining table while she went to the kitchen and looked over the dinner preparation.

The dinner time is filled with Yue Wan reporting the things happened in her school, on the other hand, Yue Yeager guessed from her talk that some teachers are against his daughter taking exams. After dinner Yue Yeager ate his dark chocolate cake well the fact is Yue Wan was feeding him and he is foolishly smiling at everyone, 'look my princess is feeding me'. Uncle Wang and some old staff were happy for both father and daughter.

"Daddy does big brother knew Xiao Ran", Yue Wan choose her word carefully.

"Xiang did schooling in WAX so they might be an acquaintance at some point, but some of my buddies say that Princess Xiao is quite bossy and bad temper". Yue Yeager got a call, so he left to study the room and took the pastry with him.

Yue Wan's face showed disbelieving and terror, 'Princess Xiao!'. Uncle Wang asked her, "Young Miss is there a problem".

Yue Wan concealed her thoughts and inquired about Xiao, "Uncle Wang, do you know about Xiao family".

Uncle Wang didn't doubt her intension, "Well, they are the old traditional family, they have branches over everywhere. The Xiao empire is built during Word War and the First Empire is General Xiao Hua. They have established their power in every field and one top important shareholder in Sky Avenue Technology. The current Empire is Princess Xiao."

Yue Wan asked him in a hurry, "that's it ".

Uncle Wang found his Young Miss getting interested in Xiao, "should I check something".

Yue Wan controlled her eagerness, "no, no... It's ok, I feel tired. I will be in my room".

Yue Wan slowly made it to her room with lots of things in her mind, 'no one knew about him'.

--- In Xiao Family--

When Grandfather Xiao got Aunt Yu's message he packed his work up and came to the home late night. As she said in his message Xiao Ran prepared the dinner, she not that good in cooking, but its edible just like Yue Xiang's comment. Xiao Ran lost her parents in a cruise accident they didn't even find the body of the deceased, so after that Grandpa Xiao took care of her until he tossed her in Military training. She still holds the grudge for doing that, "Grandpa your back", Xiao Ran welcomed him warmly.

Grandpa Xiao took the topic straightly, "Did you find who?".

Xiao Ran exhaled some air and said, "Can't you at least pretend to be a caring, its been2 years".

Grandpa Xiao with a blank face, "..." .

Xiao Ran facepalmed," Forget it, let's go to your study".

Inside the room, Granpa Xiao sat in the chair and looked through the information placed before him, "Is everything alright in school".

"All are in control, but I found that some staff was misbehaving a lot", Xiao Ran sat leisurely while taking her cup of coffee.

"Did he contact you", Grandpa gazed at her with amusement.

Xiao Ran was so close in splashing her drink, "Are you concerned about your pupil".

"Is that girl, Miss Yue", from the slack of file he took a picture.

"Isn't she the cutest, I wish to Cosplay with her. How come the devil has her as his Little sister", Xiao Ran's inner voice finally let out with grumpiness.

"At the base, they teach you to Cosplay?", the same majestic voice appeared.
