Chapter 1056 - Dealing In Handsome Men.
Though the palace was well lighted in all directions, due to one person\'s presence the darkness in the air was prevailing.
With his hands clenched inside the pocket, Feng Shufen was standing there with his coldest expression of the century. His eyes held a murderous aura at the moment that could easily create a heap of bodies, but the restrain in his stance was clearly evident. As if his mind was urging him to do something but his heart was scaring him, reminding him of someone\'s displeasure.
"President Feng, Her Highness has taken the measure that was appropriate at that moment. I have heard that she has strictly suspended that woman from the project for five years. With her not around Madam, from now on, she won\'t be in danger." Gao Fan who has rushed along with Feng Shufen said after perfectly analyzing the things.
"…" Feng Shufen knew this as well. But his internal self was simply not getting satisfied with this simple suspension.
Du Fan was standing there with his head down in guilty conscience. "I am sorry, Young Master. I have let you down today." He said and Gao Fan turned to look at him with sympathy.
Both Du Fan and Gao Fan have been around Feng Shufen for almost the same years of time now. And both of them were well familiar with each other\'s work ethics and priorities so now that the driver was humbly repenting, the secretary could easily understand how he might be feeling inside.
"…" Feng Shufen looked at Du Fan with a brief glance but still didn\'t say anything. His expressions were hard to read and that was something that pushed the man more in the guilt.
Du Fan didn\'t say anything. Keeping his head down, he just stood there with the feeling of repentance.
"Gao Fan, go and check what Shen family deals with apart from the royal affairs." After not a long while, Feng Shufen ordered turning to Gao Fan and the secretary at once nodded to his words.
Then looking at the palace, Gao Fan remembered something and asked, "President Feng, are you staying here with Madam tonight. If it\'s not comfortable in the palace, we can make the arrangements for her to move back to the forest villa." He said remembering the comfort zone of the man that could definitely not turn out to be the royal palace.
But Feng Shufen shook his head. "Not needed. She needs rest today. I will stay here for her. Tomorrow, make arrangements." He ordered and then turning around walked inside the palace as if it was his own domain.
As he walked back inside the palace, from the side, Xiao Meng was walking inside. She was just there to see his face when something in her fear doesn\'t allow her to look up at the man. So, keeping her head down, she just walked out saving her life first.
Outside, Du Fan was still standing with his head bowed down when Gao Fan turned to pat his shoulders with comfort. "Mr. Du, President Feng doesn\'t blame you, so don\'t blame yourself as well. He was just a bit worried for Madam, so try and understand his part." He said and understanding and knowing the same, Du Fan nodded.
"Okay, then you can stay here or leave while I will go and check the things, he asked me for." Gao Fan said and then walked away.
Du Fan stood there, looking at him at the distance until he felt someone patting over his shoulders. He turned to the side only to find, Xiao Meng standing there with a curious expression. "Ms. Xiao, you are here? How is Madam now?" He asked. His voice laced with utmost sincere concern.
Xiao Meng felt it as well and shook her head to reply. "Though the wound was quite deep, the doctor said she would recover soon. She is fine and resting now with her daughter." She said and only then did the man sigh in relief.
"Ahh, that\'s good. With little princess around, Madam will definitely be fine." He said and Xiao Meng looked at him more intensely. Du Fan didn\'t realize her gaze before but when felt it getting prolonged, he asked looking at the girl with a tug of confusion on his brows. "Ms. Xiao, is there something? You are looking at me like …"
His ears slightly turned red and the redness grew more accompanied by the loud thumps in his beating heart when Xiao Meng reached his hands earnestly. His body went stiff as for a moment he felt something burning inside.
"Mr. Du, could you be a little honest with me just for a moment? I need to ask you something really important." Xiao Meng asked and holding his breath, Du Fan nodded slowly. His whole body was stiff, just his head moving that too in agreement.
"Ms. Xiao, I have always been honest with you and have always thought to be the first to reveal about. But since you are taking the initiative today, I won\'t mind it as well. You can …"
"Mr. Du, I know you have always been honest with me but still this is something important, so wanted to ask with a confirmation." Xiao Meng looked over curious and, in her curiosity, she had her mind think in just one way. "Was the little girl inside really Sister Xue\'s daughter. Like real daughter?"
Du Fan nodded, shying a bit. But his shyness flew out of the window when he realized the question wasn\'t what he thought about in the first place. He still nodded but his expression changed drastically. His eyes looked at the girl\'s face first before looking at their hands that were together. "Ms. Xiao, were you trying to ask this all the time?"
Xiao Meng nodded, almost disheartening the man. "Yes, I was asking this all the time. Earlier I was simply not able to believe my ears which heard her calling Sister Xue as Mama. I wanted to ask but since there was Her Highness inside, I couldn\'t dare. So, I could only rush here to ask you. But are you really telling that she is Sister Xue\'s daughter? Like real daughter?"
Du Fan was disheartened at first but then he wanted to laugh at himself. What exactly was he thinking?
Smiling, he simply pulled away his hand and reconfirmed. "That\'s our little young miss and definitely she is the daughter of our Young Master and Madam." He said and it further astonished the girl.
Earlier when she was walking out, she had the chance to look at Sister Xue\'s boyfriend. How did she miss it?
"Does that mean, Sister Xue is already married to your Young Master?" She asked as if slowly and slowly she was discovering another planet in the universe.
Du Fan nodded. "Yes, Madam and Young Master is already married. Is it that surprising to you?"
Xiao Meng shook her head already feeling speechless. "Mr. Du, there is another question. Will you answer me? Is your Young master particularly dealing in handsome men company?" She asked and Du Fan didn\'t understand what she meant.
Furrowing his brows, he looked at her and asked, "What do you mean, Ms. Xiao?"
The assistant blinked blankly. "I mean how did every man in your company are so awesome. I just saw the other man standing with you here. He was handsome and I have been seeing you all these days and you are also no less. So is it same for every man working in your Young Master\'s company?"
Du Fan gulped. He didn\'t know how he should react to this. So he simply asked, "Ms. Xiao, are you complimenting me for my looks?"
Xiao Meng wanted to nod but then at the right moment, she realized her action and shook her head with some awkwardness. Looking away, she just denied it. "Nope, I mean to say that everyone looks handsome. Though I wasn\'t able to see your Young Master before, given his stature I could say that he was handsome as well. So, you all are good in looks. And … And I think it\'s getting quite late. I need to go back home. Bye." She said and then quickly sprinted off to run away.
Behind Du Fan, could only suppress his blush appearing on his cheeks before following her. "Ms. Xiao, it\'s late already. Let me drop you.. You won\'t get any cabs around."
