Chapter 969 - I Can't Bear Loving You Less.
Getting ready for the day, Li Xue soon descended down the stairs only to find her little one all obediently waiting on the breakfast table while Feng Shufen sitting in the living with Gao Fan on his side. He was looking through the papers which were brought in by the secretary for approval.
When saw the lady coming down, Gao Fan bowed slightly in respect. To which, Li Xue smiled and nodded, before walking to the dining table first. Since the man was busy with his work, she only felt that it was better to not disturb him.
"WeiWei, why are you not having your breakfast? It's already time for your school, sweetie. Come on, finish it fast, and then let's get off to school. I will drop you off today." Li Xue said as helping with the plates, she served her breakfast while filling up a glass of milk.
Hearing that it will be her mother dropping her off at the school, the little girl got excited. She was about to jump in joy, but something held her back. Folding her arms over her chest, she pouted at Li Xue before looking away.
Li Xue noticed her daughter's action and tugged her brows together. She knew what that pout meant. Though with pouty lips and puffed-up cheeks like that her princess looked cute, still that was not something she does usually. She only becomes like that when she has some complaint about her mother.
But what did Li Xue do to upset her princess so early in the morning?
"WeiWei, what happened? Are you unhappy about something?" Knowing her daughter well, Li Xue asked, before pulling a chair beside her to sit.
But the little one didn't turn to look at her mother. Keeping her pout, she looked away. And Li Xue knew things has turned a little different, and coaxing her daughter wouldn't be easy.
So, getting up, she thought to give it another try. Walking to the other side where her sweetie was looking, she went to ask again. This time blinking her eyes like a puppy at her. "Sweetie, did Mama upset you? Are you mad at me?"
Little Li Wei looked at her mother in her eyes and immediately felt her heart melting. "Mama, don't pull that pretty and cute look at WeiWei. She is trying to be serious with you." She said with some harshness, but her soft and beautiful voice only made it sound adorably sweet.
Li Xue pursed her lips and looked at her daughter, still blinking her eyes. "But I am not pulling any look. My daughter says that her mother is naturally beautiful and cute. Do you think she lied to me earlier?"
The little girl instantly shook her head and retorted, "Nope, Mama. WeiWei never lies."
"Is that so? Then Mama is also not pretending to look cute. She is like that from always. Do you doubt that?" Li Xue got back, curling her lips at her daughter.
And the little one only pursed her lips, puffing her cheeks. Then, staring at her mother, she unfolded her arms before reaching up to pinch on her cheeks. "Mama, you are growing naughtier than before. This shouldn't continue." She said and Li Xue furrowed her brows hearing her daughter saying that.
To which the little one quickly explained, "Or else, how would WeiWei play naughty? Hehe…"
And Li Xue couldn't help but laugh. Nodding her, she agreed to the agreement. "Fine, Mama will leave the naughtiness for you. But before that tell me, what happened to make you upset with me? Huh?"
Little Li Wei pressed her lips before downing her head to confess. "It's nothing, Mama. WeiWei just thought to play a little with you. She is not upset." She said and the mother squinted her eyes at her to ask.
"Really?"
And the little girl knew that she has to be honest. So, shaking her head she denied. "Nope, Mama. WeiWei was a little upset. Just a little upset."
"And why were you a little upset, sweetie?" If there was the feeling, there must be a reason. Li Xue didn't want to neglect that reason. Since it was related to her sweetie, it would be only better if she remains all mindful around her, otherwise, children tend to feel neglected fast.
Though she knew her little one would never be like that, she still wanted to be careful around her precious.
The little girl looked at her mother and felt guilty. So, downing her head she revealed. "It's because of Little-Belittle Uncle."
Li Xue raised her brows at the mention of Shin You Jun. Now, what childish play did that boy pull?
"What did he do?"
"Mama, he said that as I will grow big, you will start loving me less. Same as Lǎolao is loving him less now." The little girl confessed and hearing her say that Li Xue really wanted to slam her head at the wall.
How old was he? Did he really think he could share sorrows with a little girl? She has just referred him to the age of WeiWei in the play of tease. Did he really think himself of her age?
Li Xue couldn't help but shake her head. Then looking at her daughter, she asked, "And you believed him?"
Being all honest, Li Wei shook her head, "Nope, Mama. WeiWei didn't believe him yesterday. But when today, she wasn't able to greet Mama on time. She felt upset and …"
Li Xue pressed her lips and didn't let her daughter finish her words. Scooping her up from her chair in one swift go, she placed her over her lap to say, "Sweetie, remember Mama's words today. WeiWei is most precious to me and in no way, I can bear loving her less. So never ever Mama will love you less. And it's just not me. Even your Lǎolao loves your Little-Belittle Uncle. It's just that he doesn't get eyes to see it. Next time when you meet him, help him realize that love. I am sure you would do it."
She said and understanding her mother's words well, Little Li Wei smiled and nodded, giving a hum "Mhm. Mama, WeiWei will definitely help Little-Belittle Uncle."
Li Xue smiled back at her and then giving some thought, she added, "Umm … By the way, Mama was thinking, will WeiWei will like going to the amusement park this weekend? Mama has a free schedule and she could take WeiWei to play out if she wants."
Little Li Wei's eyes glittered.. "Amusement Park! WeiWei would love to go together with Mama. Yayyy!!!"
