Feng Xiao Qing didn"t expect that Lu Yi Feng would praise her and felt bewildered. Did she just hear wrongly? Did he... just praise her? She held back her tears, after all... it was a great honor to be praised as a good mother. Lu Yi Feng didn"t intend to praise her and make her cry, he only said the truth. Lu Yi Feng truly believed that she taught Xiao Xi Xi with a good mindset.Feng Xiao Qing worked really hard to raise Xiao Xi Xi all alone and she always second-guessed herself whether she was actually doing a good job or not. A simple sentence... you are a good mother... really warmed her heart. She didn"t want to be acknowledged, but she just wanted the rea.s.surance that she did a good job. Feng Xiao Qing couldn"t believe that the thing she wanted to hear... actually came out from Lu Yi Feng"s mouth!
She looked at the back of a little girl and a tall masculine man walking side by side and she blinked back her tears, not letting them fall down. Hopefully, she made the right choice and not selling herself to the devil. Feng Xiao Qing was brought by to reality by Lin San"s question, "Should we be going now?"
Feng Xiao Qing nodded and she wasn"t only wearing a mask but also a hat --- just to make it safer. Lin San brought her to a mall which belonged to Lu Yi Feng and let her choose to her heart content. Lin San nodded in satisfaction when Feng Xiao Qing only bought the neccessary things and didn"t shop crazily.
On the other hand, Lu Yi Feng and Xiao Xi Xi were in the car. The driver asked Lu Yi Feng where he wanted to go. "Wait a minute! Let me make a call first!" Xiao Xi Xi and the driver waited patiently for him.
Lu Yi Feng called a friend of him who opened doll store --- although she mainly made custom-made dolls, she should also have ready stock dolls to buy. "Xing Yan, do you have ready stock dolls in your store?" Lu Yi Feng asked after the person on the other side of the phone answered his call. After that, Lu Yi Feng listened to what the woman said and he mumbled "En" for a few times until he finished the call.
"Ah De, go to Xing Yan"s store," Lu Yi Feng ordered his driver.
"Yes, Boss." Ah De quickly drove away from the company to the doll store.
"Uncle... You know the owner?" Xiao Xi Xi asked in awe.
"Yes..." Lu Yi Feng answered.
"Is the doll store very big?" Xiao Xi Xi asked curiously.
"Very big! I know you will like it," Lu Yi Feng answered with a slightly curling up lips.
Xiao Xi Xi nodded excitedly, but after that, she just looked out of the window. She felt a little bit sleepy because she didn"t take a nap in the afternoon. She slept in no time and when Lu Yi Feng saw that, he took a blanket that was prepared for him beforehand and draped it over the little girl. After that, he looked at the scenery outside of the moving car and enjoyed the peacefulness.
When they arrived, Lu Yi Feng nudged Xiao Xi Xi to wake her up. Because of the heavy traffic, it took them one hour to arrive at the store and it was already enough time for a kid to sleep --- he supposed. The store that Xing Yan owned was a private high-end dolls store, so they didn"t have to be afraid to be recognized by other people. He reckoned that there was no use for them to wear a mask.
"Xi Xi... wake up... we have arrived!" Lu Yi Feng didn"t dare to touch Xiao Xi Xi and he only nudged her through the blanket, so his allergy should be fine.
Xiao Xi Xi yawned and stretched out her body. She opened her eyes and blink a few times, trying to chase away her sleepiness. "Uncle... where are we?"
"We will buy you a new rabbit. Don"t you remember?" Lu Yi Feng reminded the little girl.
"Oh yes... I almost forgot..." Xiao Xi Xi mumbled. When she went out of the car, she was in awe when she looked at the building in front of her. The building was a bit small, but it gave a cozy vibe. The pinkish color of the building made it look so girlish --- it was Xiao Xi Xi"s favorite color! It looked like a princess castle because of the lace and the princess-themed mural. There was a big placate with the name of the shop.
"Uncle... what is the name of the shop?" Xiao Xi Xi asked curiously. She already learned words, but she wasn"t good enough to be able to read.
"Kawaii Doll," Lu Yi Feng answered.
Xiao Xi Xi"s gaze turned to the gla.s.s display and she looked at so many pretty dolls. Her jaw was dropped so big, making Lu Yi Feng want to laugh.
"Do you like what you see?" Lu Yi Feng teased her.
Xiao Xi Xi nodded vigorously. "Uncle! This place is so beautiful! So many dolls!" Xiao Xi Xi jumped up and down in happiness.
"Let"s go in then..." Lu Yi Feng smiled.
Without answering Lu Yi Feng, Xiao Xi Xi quickly ran to the door. She was too excited to pay attention to the front. She b.u.mped into someone and fell down. "Ouch!" Xiao Xi Xi moaned in pain.
