Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 985 - Forget Life's Biggest Pain And Worries In A Jiffy.

"Mama, aren't you tired today?" Sitting on the slab of the kitchen, the little one asked blinking at her mother who was washing the vegetables at a distance.

Li Xue turned to give a smile to her daughter before shaking her head. "Nope, sweetie! Today Mama didn't have any special work to do so she is not tired. Don't worry she can still cook for you." She said, knowing well about the concern of her little.

"But Mama, you have so much work every day. Since you are not tired today, you can rest for tomorrow. Why do you still have to work in the kitchen? It will tire you out and seeing Mama tired, WeiWei will not feel good." Little Li Wei said, tugging her little soft brows together in worry.

Li Xue looked at her like that and couldn't restrain her lips from curling. Closing the tap of the running water first, she drained the water off the vegetables before walking to her to pinch her nose to say. "If you are so worried about me getting tired, why are you still sitting there. Come, and help me. That way, Mama wouldn't be tired nor WeiWei will get upset."

The little girl blinked at her mother and paused. Her eyes blinked twice at her as soon her little hands went to cup up Li Xue's cheeks. "Mama, what happened to you? Are you thinking of something? Tell WeiWei and she will help you solve it. You know that you always have your little devil with you to share." She said with innocence, but her words only made the mother raise her brows at her.

Of course, she knows what her little devil was doing. She was imitating her words and expression to cajole her. And looking at her like that, Li Xue couldn't help but shake her head internally.

Squinting her eyes at her, Li Xue asked, "So, now, are you accepting that you are the little devil?"

Little Li Wei pressed her lips then giving some thought of her own, she asked, "When did I not accept, Mama? Since it's Mama calling WeiWei as her little devil then it's the best title for WeiWei. She would always accept it." She said and her words instantly reminded Li Xue of Feng Shufen.

Those words were so identical to the ones she has heard him say when she called him Mr. Beelzebub last day. What was actually happening? The more she was looking at the two the more they were becoming like one. Like they were the designs molded out from the same mold.

But was that even possible?

Nope, she would have believed in its possibility only if she hadn't known the truth. But since she already knows it, to her thoughts it was just impossible.

"You sure are a little devil who knows well to sweet talk." Shrugging the impossibility of the thought off her brain, Li Xue pinched the cheeks of the little one before caressing her hair to say, "But thank you, sweetie, for saying that to Mama. It means a lot to me. And don't worry Mama is fine. If there would be something that Mama would want to ever share, she would always come to her little devil for sharing."

Though Li Wei always believed her Mama's words, she was still doubtful of her Mama's promise. So, she asked to re-confirm it, "Are you sure of your promise, Mama?"

Li Xue blinked and nodded with some sweet seriousness on her face. "Of course, Mama would never break any promise to WeiWei."

And only after the reassurance like that, the little girl nod, leaving the topic. But then her little eyes turned to look at the veggies on the side to ask, "But Mama WeiWei has only learned to bake pancakes from you. Cutting the vegetable with a knife could be dangerous. How should WeiWei help you then?"

She asked and following her gaze, the mother as well turned to look at the vegetable on the side. Pressing her lips together with some helplessness, she turned back to look at her who was already blinking at her. "Yes, using a knife at such young age is dangerous and mama won't allow WeiWei to do it. Then what she should do to help Mama?"

"…" WeiWei had no idea. So, remaining silent, she waited for her Mama to suggest something.

And seeing her blank like that, Li Xue wanted to smile hard. Her daughter really looked extra cute with that blank expression on her face. "Umm … how about using your other skill instead of a knife?" Li Xue asked and the little one blinked her eyes in confusion to ask.

"Huh? What other skill Mama?"

"Your pretty talks, sweetie. Why not use them to entertain Mama here? I didn't get to hear many stories of your school in recent days. And I am sure there would be many on the list that WeiWei must be wanting to share with Mama." Li Xue suggested and her words instantly passed a swish of sparkling excitement in the girl's eyes.

Nodding her head profusely, she radiantly agreed. "Yes, yes, Mama. There are many things that WeiWei wants to share with you. She can be your best entertainer today." She said and soon the stream of her interesting school history began.

Li Xue heard them all, as her hands worked swiftly on the vegetable, preparing the dinner for the later night. Every now and then her lips would curl up and she would chuckle unknowingly at her daughter's words.

It was not wrong, to a mother, nothing could be more entertaining than her kid's sweet talks. It can make them forget life's biggest pains and worries in a jiffy. And Li Xue was no exception.

Though she was not upset particularly, still somehow, she was just not able to forget whatever she came to know today. And that was something that was keeping her thoughts occupied. But she knew it was just a matter of time and soon enough everything would be off her thoughts without leaving any hints.

Soon enough, with Little WeiWei's continuous talks, the dinner was prepared. And Li Xue was ready to unwrap the apron from around her waist when heard the doorbell ring. Her gaze at once turned to look at the clock and she could already guess who would be the person returning at this time.

"WeiWei, your Daddy Angel is already home.. Go, open the door for Mama while I bring the dishes to serve on the dining table."
