Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 399 - A tough contender.

Feng Shufen's eyes stared at the wrapped box in front of him. From when did Dark Scorpion start to send welcome gifts to their enemies. Especially when the enemy was no other but him. There must be something in the depth that was not visible on the surface.

"Open it!" he commanded in a quiet tone that was not letting anyone know the depths of his thoughts.

Gao Fan nodded. Glancing down on the wrapped box, his brows furrowed. Moving his fingers, he was about to unwrap it for his President when suddenly Qi Shuai yelled in warning. "Are you guys insane? Did you really believe that that son of trash would ever send you the welcome gift? Which fantasyland have you been transmigrated to?"

Feng Shufen's eyes merely turned to look at the screen with a slight frown, but Gao Fan also supported the words of Qi Shuai readily, "Sir, I think Director Qi is right? We should not open it ourselves. I will let the people handle it and if the things are fine then they will bring it to us later". His words clearly stated the concern he was holding for his President in his heart.

Feng Shufen looked at both of them, not saying any word for quite some time. But just when the secretary thought that might be his boss had taken his words seriously, Feng Shufen bent a little forward to take the box under his care.

"President Feng!"

"Shufen!"

Both Gao Fan and Qi Shuai panicked but the man who had the box in his hand was all nonchalantly fearless about it. Efficiently, Feng Shufen's fingers moved as he removed the ribbon bow and then unwrapped the brocade box from the wrapping paper.

"A brocade box?" Qi Shuai worded out in confusion when his eyes caught the revelation of the velvety box in his friend's hands. His eyes widened as his mind instantly drew some assumption of its own. "Wait, wait, is that a love rival for my Sister – in – law. Geez!?Secretary Gao, did you not run any background check on that son of trash? Now see what your carelessness has brought us to? He is now sending love proposal gifts to him. What answer should I give to my Sister – in – law now?"

Seeing all the blames getting pushed on his shoulders, Gao Fan could only press his lips together. From when did he become a careless one? Of course, he has run a thorough background check on that cunning man of darkness.

Though not too much about him could get acc.u.mulated in his files of data, one thing about which he was sure has been that the Dark Scorpion has been a straight man in his life. There was no way he would be having any crush on his boss. Then for what was this gentle jewellery box for?

When the two people were dealing with their own confusion, Feng Shufen was just keeping his stares at the box. Finally making sure of something in his thoughts, he unlocked the box and the moment he did his gaze became frigid. The grip at the box increased as his knuckles went white.

Gao Fan was the first one to notice that dark expression of him. The expression that was promising the coming of the worst. He wanted to know what was making his boss feel this way but he knew well that he did not stand in any position to question his President. And the angle from where he could look, nothing from inside the box was coming in his vision, except for a rectangular semi-thick paper which looked more like someone's old photograph.

"What are you looking so deeply for, Shufen? Don't say that my words were right?" Qi Shuai said, getting back to his impatient side. "Secretary Gao, why are you still standing there like a block of the log? Come on, help me take a look into the box once. Let me see so that I can later take revenge for my dear Sister – in – law. Sigh, I am feeling so bad for her". He added in a lamenting tone.

"Secretary Gao Fannnn!" He yelled to urge when he still saw the man, standing all still at the place, lost in his own trance of thoughts.

Gao Fan was snapped back. Taking the laptop in his hands, he slightly inclined it forward so that the person could have easy access to look inside the box.

"Aye! That's not any gift. It looks like some old photograph. Whose photograph is it?" Qi Shuai asked, getting confused at the unknown twist of the things. The things were not yet very clear to his eyes.?"Secretary Gao, could you please move the laptop to a better angle. I am yet not able to see it properly". He requested, heaving a deep sigh. This secretary was a little too loyal. Couldn't he make things a little easier and look himself forward? That wouldn't cause any harm. But he would purposely restrain himself since he has not got any orders from his boss. Sigh! His loyalty and sincerity were such a burden!

Nodding to the request, Gao Fan, moved to the better angle only to hear a surprising gasp of the Director. "Aye, why does the woman in the photograph look like my dear sister – in – law? What does this mean? Did that mean it's not Xiao Xue getting a love rival but you? And this time the contender is a tough one, not your nephew who you can discipline, or a trash boyfriend whom you can destroy"

Again, the words were shot out without giving any thought. Qi Shuai really wanted to cut off his sinful tongue. Couldn't it learn the lessons on restraints? But what was the use now, the damage was already made, earning him a dark freezing glare that froze him at the place making him know that his death was near. But just when it was about to befall on him, a dinging message tone came into his rescue. Qi Shuai heaved a sigh of relief.

It was in Gao Fan's working tablet. Moving his fingers, he quickly checked the notification. At this crucial stage of the power crisis, no notification could be allowed to be ignored. Not knowing what to do with the piece of information he received, he looked up at his President as he said, "President Feng, Madam is now on a flight to Venezuela".
