Chapter 886 - Daughter Of Your Mother.
Hearing the doubtful tone of the Shin You Jun, the eased brows of Little Li Wei furrowed, while her grey eyes that were warmly shining moments before turned all cold, complimenting its original greyish color tone.
Though just a bit of her expressions have changed, still it was vividly evident in her demeanor. Something that was different in her, unlike the other kids of her age.
Her eyes turned sharp as it stared at the man. Even though she has kept her gaze at the man, her gaze never felt like she was glaring at him. With her eyes, it felt like she was restraining herself at the best to not offend anyone.
Everyone noticed her like that and without a doubt, it made everyone dumbfounded. Shin You Jun was taken aback by her sudden transformation, while the butler's eyes also went to get fixed on the girl. He has already witnessed her witty words, but now seeing her like this was something different.
Chen Rui as well paused but instead of reading the girl's attitude, her eyes went to stare at Li Xue. Since they have already noticed the change in the girl, she was sure that being the mother, Li Xue must be knowing it as well.. So instead of reading the girl's reaction from another's perspective, she decided to read it from the most trusted one.
A mother's perspective!
When everyone around could feel her daughter's iciness, sitting beside her how could Li Xue not feel it?
Turning a little towards her daughter, Li Xue reached her hands with one hold while the other went to caress her hair. "It's fine, sweetie. He is just saying. Don't get oversensitive about it. Okay?" She cooed softly, keeping a gentle smile over her lips. This was the sensitive topic that her princess was always concerned about.
The little girl's lips got in the shape of a pout when heard her mother. It quivered on its own but her expressions controlled it well. Though her eyes were turned coldly sharp, inside it was holding the tears, restraining them from rolling out. Her tears were precious and she wouldn't let them roll out and go waste.
"WeiWei, it's fine. He didn't mean it, sweetie. He was just playing with you. Remember, I told you about the Crown Prince who was the same as your age. He is the one I was talking about. He was just playing with you." Li Xue said, but from the side the Crown Prince interrupted.
"Hey! How am I of her age? Is there something wrong with your eyes?" Shin You Jun said and at his interruption Li Xue just glared at him, at once putting him in silence. While from the side, Chen Rui also chided.
"Enough, You Jun. You already made her upset. What else do you think? How old are you to behave like this?"
"But Ma, I was just …"
"I said enough, You Jun. Don't make me go strict on you." Chen Ruin warned and at her mother's warning the son could only keep his obedient silence.
While Li Xue looked back at her daughter. Lifting her little's head from her chin to stare down into her eyes. But the next moment, Little Li Wei removed her Mama's hands from herself and reached her arms to wrap around her neck all dearly.
Getting on the sofa seat to kneel and become more comfortable in her position, she sobbed lightly. Hiding her face in the crook of her mother's neck, she finally let go of the tears that were becoming uncontrollable in her eyes.
"You are my Mama. Even though Weiwei doesn't look like you, you are only WeiWei's Mama. WeiWei has got her hair from you and no one else could prove it otherwise. Weiwei is her Mama's daughter. And Mama is WeiWei's mother. There is no lie in between. Right, Mama?" she sobbed.
And at her such concerned words, Li Xue could only pat on her shoulders and nod. "Of course, sweetie. Do you think I would lie? WeiWei is her Mama's daughter. It's just that Mama is yet to introduce her to everyone. Once she does, no one would doubt that."
"But Mama, if WeiWei Wei would have looked like Mama, same as other children look like their mothers then no one would have doubted that in the first place. Why did WeiWei didn't look like you." Little Li Wei asked, still hiding in the crook of Li Xue's neck.
Hearing her say that again, Li Xue pressed her lips together as she had nothing other to say. While on the side, Shin You Jun truly felt bad in his heart. Seeing the little one sob like that was making his heartache, giving him the feeling that he had never felt.
Scratching the back of his neck, he said in a tone of guilt. "Hey, little one, don't take my words from before seriously. I was just playing around. You are definitely the daughter of your mother. Now don't cry and make me feel bad." He said but the little girl didn't respond to his apology.
Li Xue looked at the boy and smiled a little. "Sweetie, see, he is already accepting it. Now, …" Before Li Xue could complete her words, the little girl shook her head.
"No, Mama. WeiWei has gotten upset. Now, WeiWei wants to complain, why did she not take after you?" Little Li Wei became adamant and Li Xue knew she was in the tough spot.
It was already rare for her girl to cry and become adamant like this over something, And today, both the rare things happened at the same time. It was going to be a little difficult to coax her back.
"Sweetie …" She was about to say something in order to persuade her but someone interrupted her from a distance, making her go silent for a second and turn to look at the person who had appeared.
"Who said you have not taken after your mother, dear? From where I am seeing, just a look of you is telling me how you are the daughter of your mother." Shin Tinming said as taking a slow stroll he entered the living hall with his hands at his back.
