Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Holding a soft contended curl over her lips, she looked at him to ask, "You came to meet WeiWei?"

At once, Shin You Jun\'s pupils dilated as taking a stance of accusation, he turned to look at Li Xue to say, "If not WeiWei, what do you think? Of course, I am here for her. She called me earlier, telling me how ill she is and how much she is missing me. I wasn\'t able to respond to her in time as I wasn\'t in the mood of attending the calls. But after I heard her voice message, how could I still call myself her uncle if I did not come to cheer her up."

He said more in the tone of proving himself. Li Xue heard him and nodded with much understanding to say, "Oh I see. But you don\'t have to explain me so much, I never doubted your words in the first place." She said and feeling affected with her words of faith in him like that, Shin You Jun opened her mouth before closing it without saying anything.

Li Xue raised her brows at his effort of bringing out his thoughts. "What? Were you wanting to say something?"

Shin You Jun felt getting sweetly bullied. "You … don\'t trick me with those words. Who asked you to not ask me for the explanations? You should ask me because I am not your …." He said but paused not willing to complete his own sentence.

Li Xue could guess his unsaid word all easily but she felt impressed seeing the boy not completing his word at the end. "You are not my …? Were you saying something?" She asked and the struggle of accepting that one thing was very clear on the boy\'s face.

His fingers clenched on his side as looking at Li Xue, he just looked away denying his previous words. "Nothing. I am not here to talk to you. So don\'t find a way to do that with me. Let me enter, I want to meet the little one." He said before stepping on his own to walk inside the house.

Li Xue didn\'t stop, instead allowed him to enter before saying, "But she is already asleep. You chose the wrong time to come." She said and Shin You Jun\'s steps halted the other moment before he turned to look at her.

When he stared at her, Li Xue gestured him to look at the clock where the hands were almost there striking the midnight. "Children usually don\'t stay awake until this late. Especially when they are sick." Although the meaning was very simple in her words, the intentions with which she has said those words were also clear to anyone\'s understanding.

If he was really there just for Weiwei, he might have also noticed the time. But since he still chose to come then it only meant two things. Either he has not checked the time while coming here, or he wanted to come and make some things clear.

Although with his personality the former looks more suitable, Li Xue still forced herself to believe the latter.

Shin You Jun looked at the clock and embarrassment surfaced in his expressions. "Sorry, I didn\'t notice the time and came this late. I will leave first." He said and began his steps hurriedly to walk outside the house.

Li Xue wanted to stop him, but she feared that no matter how she stops him, he might not listen to her.

Shin You Jun was on his way out of the house when suddenly his steps came to pause remembering the fork fallen on the floor. Li Xue might have dropped it before when she restrained herself from attacking him. He remembered her holding it before.

Pondering over it for some time, he looked around at the density of the trees around the house. Though it was well lighted, still …

He turned suddenly with confusion on his face and in that blink of a moment before he could notice her expression, Li Xue changed her face.

"Your over-doting husband is not around to scare me today?" He asked and Li Xue paused before looking around.

And then shaking her head, she said, "He had some work to do so he is not here. Gone out of the country for few days."

"He left you alone in this forest? Is he crazy?" His tone changed along with his expression and Li Xue raised her brows. To which he quickly rectified. "I mean WeiWei is sick like this. What was he even thinking while going off the country?"

Li Xue nodded but her nod was not of simple understanding but was of the understanding that she understood of reality. "Ah yeah, got it. I understand your concern. But it\'s okay. I am here with her and nothing would happen. Don\'t worry about her. You can go back first. It\'s already so dark at night, the morning would come soon, and then everything would be fine. For now, just go back first." She said and, in her words, several emphases were coming on the right notes.

Although she was telling that she would be okay, her tone was also stating a dilemma in it. She wanted him to leave but as well asking him to think twice about it.

Shin You Jun stared at her. "Fine since you would be okay alone then, I would go. It\'s already night and I should leave first." He said and Li Xue nodded to her. But she could see the second thoughts in his eyes. She wanted it that way.

"Yeah, you should go." She said again as emphasizing more, she took her steps to lead him to the door.

Shin You Jun nodded. "Mhm. I should leave. "He said as once again he turned to proceed his steps out of the door. Li Xue followed him, ready to close the door. But just when she could, Shin You Jun turned around with a determination on his face.

"Nope, it\'s not right.." He said and Li Xue wrinkled her brows in confusion.
