Feng Shufen suppressed his lips from curling and shrugged his shoulders. "What's so wrong with the word witch? Didn't you call me Devil? And a wife to a devil could only be a witch, right?" He said and Li Xue opened her lips to retort but then shushed herself finding no suitable words.

What could she say? She did call him Devil but that doesn't mean he can call her a witch.

Feng Shufen looked at her state of silence and suppressed his chuckle more inside. "What? Do you have something to say?" he asked, clearly probing her.

"You … You can't call me a witch. C-Call me, angel, instead. Didn't you use to call me that earlier?" Getting probed by the Devil, Li Xue could only say what she found suitable. But to her words, Feng Shufen just shook his head.

"What? Why are you shaking your head?"

"I used to call you Darling, but never Angel." He proofed and Li Xue literally wanted to strangle his handsome neck at the moment.

"You … then start calling me angel now. I won't mind." She said, almost hmphing. But luckily, she controlled herself. Or else at the family table like this, it would be hard to explain her manners.

Feng Shufen could no longer hold back. His lips curled slightly on the sides as still hiding his play, he said, "But didn't you want to own the title of she-devil for once. Don't you want that anymore?"

Li Xue paused at his words before turning to glare at him. "You have the nerve to ask that now? Even though I want that. Is that even possible? You already ruined it all. Now except a greedy wife, I am nothing." She said, mildly pouting her lips out.

"Who said?" Feng Shufen asked and Li Xue frowned at him. But before she could say anything, he gestured toher to look behind him where the relatives were sitting. "Look at their gazes, I am sure none would be considering you as an angel, after all that happened."

He spoke and Li Xue slightly leaned to check only to find curious gazes coming her way. And like he said, those gazes were definitely not calling her angel. "Mhmm … you are not wrong. They must not be seeing me as an angel but some greedy junk of woman that trapped you." She agreed before getting back to sit properly. "Tsk, tsk, Mr. Beelzebub, they might not have expected this from you. Shouldn't you fall for the charms of an angel, like Ms. Zhang? Then how did you get yourself trapped by me?"

She said as she leisurely forked his served meat before putting it into her mouth. Feng Shufen noticed it and smiled before picking some more for her.

"What can I do? Devil's charms are more enticing than the angels. How could I dare to escape?" He deadpanned and to his words like that, Li Xue couldn't disagree.

So nodding to him, she added, "I might have not supported this fact months ago. But getting charmed by you so many times, I dare not lie."

While they were having their own talks, other people on the table were staring at them with great awe. But someone was all nonchalant to it.

Chen Yujian. He was sitting there, eating calmly as if he was some old guy who had seen the world and experienced all of it from the very beginning.

Though Li Xue was all oblivious to those gazes before, the oblivion didn't continue for longer. Soon she felt it and looked up only to find Feng Yi Lan glaring at his brother while Feng Yi Ran gave silent smiles to her side.

Nudging her nose with some awkwardness, she coughed to ask in a slow whisper. "What happened? Is there something wrong?" Her voice came so softly and naturally that no one would believe that she was the same one who earlier talked so sharply and confidently in front of elders.

Feng Yi Ran shook her head to nothingness. "Ah, it's nothing. It's just that I now find you more natural around us than what you were before there, in front of them."

Li Xue scratched the corner of her brows to hid the curl of lips to say with a bit of awkwardness. "I hope, I didn't offend anyone earlier. I was just pulling an act together with him. Neither the dialogues were scripted from before nor did I have plans to face this today. But unexpected things happen, I guess."

Feng Yi Ran shook her as she completed her food a bit quick to say, "Aye, you were perfect. And even if they find something offensive in the tone, they should understand that they deserved it from the start, since it was them who had begun it."

She said and Li Xue nodded to her. Though it was just her second time meeting her, she found her more amiable this time. Maybe, for now, she has confirmed on whose side she stands.

As Li Xue talked with Feng Yi Ran, her eyes found Yi Lan still looking at Shufen. So she turned to look at the man to check. But to all that glare that the girl was sending his way, ignoring it, the man was sitting all in ease while having his food.

At his such act of nonchalance, Li Xue could just shake her head before turning back to ask her friend instead, "Yi Lan, what happened? Is there something that's bothering you?"

Feng Yi Lan turned to look at Li Xue and without showing any hesitation pointed her fingers at Feng Shufen with accusation to say, "He is bothering me. Could you do anything of him?"

Li Xue was wordless as raising her brows a bit, she turned to look at the man. And he was still there finishing his food with ease.

"Ah, that depends on what he did to bother you and what you want me to do with him." Not finding any suitable side to take, Li Xue could only find this way to escape. But who said the escape would be easy when the choice comes in between best friend and husband?

Just when Li Xue thought that she would dodge, Feng Yi Lan reasoned her grudge. "He … He misled, cheated, and then won you back from me."

Li Xue heard her and it was not needed for her to ask about what she was talking about. Her words clearly indicated that she was talking about whatever happened earlier before lunch.

But was she wrong to blame the man?

Even Li Xue doesn't think so. Mr. Beelzebub has clearly misled everyone in understanding wrongly at first before overtaking the situation in his control. But could she even blame him? Nope, for she knew that if he had not taken over, things might have gone a bit out of control.

But knowing that neither of the parties was at fault, it was tougher to take anyone's side in the situation. She felt helpless as she stared at Yi Lan first before turning to look at Feng Shufen, who suddenly stared up to look at her face.

"You …" She began, not sure of the words that she was planning to use. But as if reading her helplessness from her eyes itself, the man didn't allow her to speak more. Covering for her, he interrupted dealing the matter with his sister on his own.

"When one doesn't have the capabilities, they shouldn't overestimate their abilities." Feng Shufen said without showing any expression on his face before turning to glance briefly at Feng Yi Lan.

Feng Yi Lan didn't understand at first, but soon she did. Her face reddened with fierceness as looking at her brother, she asked getting all aggrieved, "Wait, what? What did you say? I don't have the abilities? You clearly played foul."

"For even playing foul you need the capabilities."

"You …"

"Anyway! I am done here." He said before standing up to look at the elder who was enjoying his chat with the little members. "Excuse me, everyone. I have to make an important call first. I will be back in a while.." He informed before giving an informative nod to Li Xue, who reciprocated with the same.
