Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved-Chapter 1287 Li Xue, do you blame me?

"Why are you staring at me like that?" Li Xue asked, finally catching Feng Yi Lan in the crime. All this while when they were having dinner, she could feel her questioning gaze at herself but the moment she would lift her head to ask her what it was, she pretended like she was seeing anywhere but not her.

Feng Yi Lan coughed, almost choking on her food. Taking the glass of water in aid, she drank a mouthful to ease her throat, and then keeping it down, she shook her head. "Why would I stare at you, Li Xue? I am just having dinner. You might have got it wrong." She said, at once rejecting the thought of Li Xue.

But at her words, Li Xue just pursed her lips and stared at her with a look that clearly asked – 'you better not lie Yi Lan. I have seen through you already.'

And finding her like that, Feng Yi Lan could only huff a deep breath out. "Aye, Li Xue, you asked yourself. You better not regret yourself later." She said and Li Xue simply shook her head.

"Don't worry, I would not. Just spill it out because I can feel you having something buried in your stomach."

She said and gradually the expression on Feng Yi Lan's face changed. Li Xue saw her like that but didn't interrupt. She has already expected that something was there that was troubling her otherwise her Yi Lan would never be a person who would leave twenty missed calls on her phone and still won't have anything to say when she would receive a callback. Her silence from the other day was enough to hint at the abnormality in her.

"Li Xue, you know me, right?" After a while, Feng Yi Lan asked and without any hesitation, Li Xue hummed. To which she further asked, "Do you think I would ever hurt you. Hurt you in any way?" 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

Li Xue smiled softly, before reaching out her hands that she saw were nervously shaking. "Yi Lan, you have always been the person to support me during my pains. There could be no way I would believe that you would be the one to hurt me. That's simply not possible. Why are you saying things like this?"

She said and the next moment, Feng Yi Lan burst into tears. It was something Li Xue didn't expect, so when it happened, she was quick to shift to her side.

"Yi Lan, what happened? Why are you crying? You are scaring me. Tell me, what's the matter?" She asked and Yi Lan simply shook her head, her tears not stopping even for a second.

"Li Xue, you trust me so much, yet I betrayed you. Will you be able to forgive me?"

She said and the more Li Xue heard her the more confused she got. Frowning, she asked, "Yi Lan, can you stop crying first and tell me exactly what happened? And what betrayal are you talking about? You can't betray me ever. I know that."

"No, Li Xue. You don't know anything. I betrayed you. Even though I wasn't the direct source, I still am responsible because I always knew that my mother doesn't like you. Even though I had known that she has vicious ways and motives, I still wasn't able to save you. I wasn't able to do anything. That was a form of betrayal."

Feng Yi Lan said and her fragments of words about the matter only made Li Xue confused. From her whole paragraph of words, she only understood two things. "You mean to say your mother didn't like me and she tried to harm me? When?"

Feng Yi Lan nodded. Then stifling her sobs, she continued, "Yes, my mother never liked you. She never liked my brother as well. I knew this from the start. But I have warned her enough to not try anything on you. I thought my threats would work on her after all, she is the woman who loves to save her face. She wouldn't want my father to see her viciousness."

"But I never expected that she would suddenly turn wicked to plan an assassination on you. If I had known her intentions before, I would have long revealed her true face to everyone. B-But I underestimated her. I thought her limits would be limited to the Feng relatives, from whom we can easily protect you. But I never thought that she would actually plan to kill you"

She said and Li Xue's expressions turned hard to read. She never had conversations with Yi Lan's mother. Although she has heard a lot about her from both Yi Lan and Feng Shufen, other than what she has heard from them, she had no opinions about her of her own.

She never remembered sharing an enmity with her that would cost her life. What made the woman hate her so much?

"You mean it was your mother who tried to kill me?" Li Xue asked anf Feng Yi Lan nodded before reaching for a tissue to wipe her nose. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

"Yes, the attempt of assassination that happened to you a few days back. It was planned by my mother. But believe me, Li Xue, if I had known this, I would not have allowed her to do it. I would have done anything but would not have let her do it." She said and Li Xue nodded to her.

"I know you, Yi Lan. You don't have to tell me all this. Furthermore, how can you even blame yourself for this? When your mother could plan such a plot on you, back in time, I could only already understand how harshly she would treat others. So, you are not to be blamed" Li Xue said, and pausing in her sobs, Feng Yi Lan looked at her as if her friend was some angel who has descended down to help her out of the guilt.

"You mean you don't blame me, Li Xue?"

Li Xue shook her head. "I don't. But there is something I want to ask you. You better answer me everything this time, okay?"
