Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

"Madam, we are here." After driving the whole way to Shen's mansion, Du Fan finally announced, pausing at the entrance.

Li Xue was texting about her delay to Feng Shufen, so she just hummed in response to him, while from the side of her, Shen Bingling moved to down the window to command the guards at the main gate. "Do I have to personally come out to order you all now? Open the door. What are you waiting for?" She said with arrogance and on her orders like that, one guard went to open the door while the other apologized.

"Sorry, Princess. This wasn't your car so we doubted."

Shen Bingling pursed her lips and waved off his words. "What's there to doubt? I am coming along with my friend. Do I need to register it to you?" She said and then winded up the window, without giving the guard any chance to explain.

Du Fa watched the attitude of the princess and was only speechless. He was relieved that even though his Madam had also been a princess, she wasn't the same as her. Otherwise, it would have been tough for him to think of people's survival around her.

"Mr. Driver, please take the car inside." Li Xue asked, keeping her phone back inside her bag.

Du Fan nodded as resuming the engine once again, he drove inside the mansion's premises before bringing it to park at the entrance.

Once reached, Li Xue turned to look at the princess and said with a pressed smile over her lips, "Princess Shen, we are at your place. It's already night so you can go and rest soon." She spoke. Although her words were very polite, in those her intentions were very clear. She wanted to make her leave immediately.

Shen Bingling understood that intention as well. But she chose to be a thick skin for the first time, pushing her arrogance and ego aside. "Li Xue, you would be soon becoming one of us. If you ask me today, I really do not care if I would have to share the title of princess with you. I just wanted to let you know that even if you become a princess tomorrow, I hope you will stand firm on your words. As we, the princesses, never go back on our words. No matter what. That was all I wanted to say and I hope you would understand."

She said and for a moment, Li Xue felt that she has transmigrated to some other world where she could no longer get what was going on. Her brows tugged together into confusion, as she asked, keeping her lips still intact with a smile. "May I know which words are you referring to, Princess Shen?"

Shen Bingling looked ahead at the driver's seat. Although Du Fan didn't seem like he was interested in hearing their talks, she knew that his audibility wasn't that wrong to not hear things at such close proximity. "The words that you said to me the other day." She said vaguely and at her vague words like that, Li Xue raised her brows to confirm.

"The other day? On the day when we met at the restaurant?"

Shen Bingling smiled, but her smile held an irritation as she shook her head. "Nope, the other day at the parking space of the palace. That day you said that you already have a man and you are not interested in Prince Su. I hope you maintain those words even after you become an adopted princess."

She cleared and Li Xue was not too surprised. She should have guessed it from before. But what surprised her in the situation was that – just to talk this simple thing with her, the girl had made her take the whole opposite lane ride with her. It wouldn't have hurt if she had asked her this before at the palace itself.

Li Xue shook her head internally as her finger reached out to pinch the space between her brows. "Princess Shen, you don't have to worry about that. Not just for the sake of the princess' words, I swear on my existence itself that even if I lost my sight, I would still choose the man I am with. I neither have to look for others nor could anyone get on par with him. So, rest assured with your Prince Su."

She said and at her assurance like that Shen Bingling smiled. But not making it too obvious, she went back to her plain expression to add, "Great then. I will keep these words of yours noted in my memory book then."

Li Xue pressed a smile before giving a small nod. "Sure. You can keep it however you want." She said as she gestured to her to look out of the window.

Shen Bingling followed her gesture and looked out of the window. "Oh, yes, it's getting late. I need to rest soon. I will go first then." She said, picking her purse to turn and push the door open first.

But just when Li Xue thought that the night with the princess has finally concluded, Shen Bingling paused to look back at her.

"By the way, Li Xue, now that we have become all friendly; may I know who your man actually is? I mean I can see how you adore him but I have never seen him around you. Since you would be becoming one of us soon, I will help you investigate him properly, if you want."

She said and Li Xue waved off, "That won't be needed, Princess Shen. I knew him very well and no investigation would be required. But if you feel like I am simply building stories of my own in the name of some imaginary person, wait for the time when I introduce him to everyone. You would believe my each and every word. Until then, you have no other choice but to have faith in my assurance."

Li Xue said, not missing the context that Shen Bingling was trying to keep hidden in her words. "For now, I think you should leave. It's already late and I need to return back to my home as well. Good night." She said before gesturing to Du Fan about something.

Du Fan understood her cue and at once got down before opening the door for the princess to say. "Miss, please leave first.. Madam is also tired; I need to drive her home soon."
