Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1324 Promises are made to be kept.

　　Soon most of the kids were sent off. Since Xiao Fei was also getting late and she also bade farewell after Li Xue assured her to bring her after a few days. Little Li Wei also promised to open her gift first before looking at others. And with all that the little friend left. 

　　"Sweetie, you bade Xiao Fei goodbye already. It's time for you to say the same to others as well. You can't keep others waiting." Li Xue said while caressing her princess's hair gently. 

　　The little girl nodded with a smile and was about to go to do the same to others when suddenly a maid came running to them while panting for breath.

　　"Madam, t-that inside …" 

　　Li Xue raised her brows. She knew something might happen in the evening since there were so many people at home today. But she never expected it to happen this soon. But now that she could see the terrified expression of the maid, she knew things had already happened. 

　　Slowly turning to exchange a glance with Feng Shufen, she halted to look at the maid before asking her to wait for a moment. Then turning back to look at her little one, she bent on her knees to say, "Sweetie, look I have prepared a gift for each of your friends. Will you help Mama to send it to them while bidding them goodbye?" 

　　The little girl turned to look at the side. As her mother said, a maid was standing with a tray of gifts. "Mama, I can give this to them. But isn't this my birthday, why should I also give them gifts?" 

　　Li Xue smiled before cupping her cheeks in adoration to say, "Sweetie, it's a manner-full ritual. When we take something from others, it's good if we also give them something. Since your friends brought you love and wishes, you should also give them your love and wishes in return. That way there would always be a mutual feeling of respect. Do you get it now?" 

　　Little Li Wei still stared at the tray of gifts and nodded. "Yes, Mama. I got it now. It's something similar to the act of reciprocation you taught me before. You have said that we should always reciprocate people's feelings. I understand it now. Don't worry, I will give them the gifts properly. No one will miss one." 

　　She said and seeing her daughter assure her like that, Li Xue couldn't help but nod with a smile, "Great then. Distribute them the gifts and then go to spend some time with White Ears later. You have not met him for the whole day. He must be waiting for you. And also don't come back home until Mama calls you back, okay?"

　　Little WeiWei looked at her mother and blinked her eyes, "Mama, are there more surprises for me?" 

　　Li Xue shrugged her shoulders. "You never know. You might get one at night as well." 

　　"Really, Mama?" 

　　Li Xue got back on her foot and smiled, "I won't reveal much. Be good, okay?" She said and the little one nodded obediently. The mother then patted her head and turned to look at the maid who was carrying the tray of gifts in her hand. "Please look after her and stay with her. Accompany her in the garden. Don't come until we call you." 

　　She said and the maid nodded, Li Xue didn't want her sweetie to witness any feud between the elders. So, it was better if she stay out until the things inside gets well. 

　　Then glancing at Feng Shufen, she was about to say something when his phone dinged with a message. Feng Shufen pulled out his phone to check and his expression changed. 

　　Li Xue noticed the change on his face and asked, "Did something happen?" 

　　Feng Shufen looked up at her as darkness clouded over his expressions. "We need to go inside." 

　　Li Xue didn't ask for more. Nodding, she agreed, "Fine, let's go in then." She said and then soon the two turned to walk inside. 

　　While behind, WeiWei remained at her place all confused, looking at the back of her parents. 

　　"Little young miss, should we begin?" When found the little girl still standing at her place, the maid asked. Her head bowed in politeness. 

　　The little one lifted her head and turned to look at her. Then blinking slightly at the gifts she nodded. "We should begin now, otherwise they will get late to reach their homes and their parents would be worried. And Mama said since they are our guests, it's our responsibility to see that they reach home in time."

　　She said and then turned to walk in the direction where her classmates were waiting. Reaching them, she slowly distributed the gifts before sending them off.  Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

　　When done, she turned to look at the maid behind her and eyed the tray in her hand. There was still a gift left on it. Pouting, she looked around. "There is no one around. Mama said each one would get one gift. Does that mean, I forget to gift someone?" 

　　"But you have distributed it fairly little young miss." The maid said and the little girl frowned before looking around again to search for someone. 

　　"I have not given it to Senior Brother Avron. Did he leave already?" She said, realizing where she lost the count. The maid also followed her gaze and searched around but there was no kid left. The garden was well lit so one could clearly see if someone was around or not. 

　　"After the cake was cut, all the kids were sent out. Seems like the senior brother whom you are looking for might have left early." 

　　Little WeiWei's expression changed as a hint of regret got over her face. "But he didn't take the gift from me and also, he didn't say goodbye to me. How did he leave like that? He said he would leave only after saying goodbye." She said without giving up on looking around for him. 

　　Given her experience, promises are made to be kept. Her mother always kept her words to her and also her Daddy Angel never broke any promise to her. So, when Avron said, she believed it to be the same. But now not finding him around, she doubted. 

　　The maid was in a tough spot. Although she didn't know which kid the little girl was looking for. But she was also looking around to search for him. "Little young Miss, that …"

　　"I am here. Were you looking around for me?" Suddenly the voice made WeiWei turn her head. Spotting Avron at not a far distance, she nodded before sprinting her way to him. 

　　"Senior Brother, you are here, I almost thought that you left. I have yet to give you a return gift. Everyone got one, only yours was left with me."  She said as picking up the last gift box from the tray, she extended it out to him. "Here, this is for you." 

　　Avron looked at the box and then after a thought, he took it. WeiWei turned to thank the maid for helping her and seeing the heavy tray in her hand, she said, "The tray looks heavy and your arms may hurt. You can go in and keep this first. WeiWei would wait for you." She said being considerate and the maid smiled before nodding. 

　　"Yes, little young miss, I will go in and keep it first. But please wait for me here. I will be back soon. Please don't go anywhere around. Madam has ordered me to look after you." 

　　Li Wei nodded with a smile. "Don't worry. I have heard Mama saying things to you, so I won't go around, rather would stay here to wait for you. You can go and come after keeping the tray." She said and the maid soon went to keep the tray inside. 

　　Outside once the maid was gone, Li Wei turned to look at Avron before darting her eyes to look at the gift in his hand. "Won't you take a look at the gift?" She asked with her pretty smile and the little boy turned to look at the gift in his hand before shaking his head. 

　　"I might not at this moment." He said and WeiWei looked up at him with a furrow of confusion on her brows. 

　　"Why? Did you not like it?" 

　　Avron shook his head before checking the time on his watch. "I don't have time. My father would be sending someone to pick me up soon. I would have to leave." 

　　WeiWei blinked her eyes, "Senior Brother, you are leaving for your country today?" She asked, holding her tears. Although the drops were ready to fall off the edge of her eyes, she was trying her best to not let them roll down her cheeks. 

　　The little boy looked at her and his expression hardened. "The cultural fest was the last day of my study tenure here. I stayed here because I promised to attend your birthday before." He said before taking out a brocade box from his pocket.
