Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Li Xue felt warm hearing his words but the way he was looking at her was making her confused. Her heart can feel him hiding some pain. She can tell that by looking into his steely orbs. But why was he pained? Did something happen back in his house?

"What happened? Are you fine? Is there any problem?" She asked, not able to control herself from asking. Her eyes were busy reading him, but there was nothing she could point her finger on. It was a weird feeling, where she was trying hard but the man was efficiently preventing her from doing so.

"I am fine. Did you two have your dinner?" shrugging her questions off, he asked with a slight smile on his lips and then turned to look at the little piece he was holding in his arms.

Little Li Wei instantly nodded her head in acceptance. "Yes, yes Daddy Angel! We already had our dinner. Mama said that you will be having your dinner with your other family so we did not wait for you. But I still did not finish my dessert. I was waiting for you to come. We can have it together. Me, Mama and you".

"Huh hmm?" Shufen asked in a humming tone as he strolled inside the place. "Then let's have the dessert. I also did not have any during my dinner".

He said and then passed an affirmation smile to Li Xue, asking her to bring the dessert out. Since the man was not yet ready to tell her anything, she could only wait for him to reveal it later. Nodding her head, she went back to the kitchen only to bring the three serves of almond jelly with some fruit slices.

"Yummm … Daddy Angel, do you know why Mama cooks such good desserts?" the little girl asked, dangling her legs down the chair as she took one spoon from her serve into her mouth.

Feng Shufen looked at her and shook his head. Li Xue too did not know what was going in her daughter's head when she asked this question until she heard her mumbling with her full stuffed mouth.

"Because she wanted me as her daughter. Before I came to this world, God had announced that he would only give me to her when she can cook the best desserts in the world and let me have it every day. Haha … right, Mama?"

Li Xue could only shake her head at her sweet daughter's adorable childishness. What she said must be true or else how could she get such a sweet mouthed devilic – angel in her life?

"Hmmm … God gifted you to me that way. But I doubt you that it must be you, who has put such demand in front of him. Sigh … I thought my princess chose me over the crowd but in the end, I come to know that she took my test to get her desserts"

The mother said with a disappointment filled voice and Feng Shufen could not help but admire her charms. No doubt with her little daughter she tends to be different than he could ever imagine her. Soft, beautiful, adorable, childish and at the same time sensible! This woman always surprises him with her different charms. None less than the other.

When Li Wei saw her comment getting in a wrong way and paining her mother, she instantly left her dessert glass on the table and jumped off her chair to run off to her Mama. She did not say anything. She just remained standing in front of her, waiting for her mother to respond to her unsaid gesture.

Blinking her innocent eyes at her, she stayed still. Patiently waiting!

Feng Shufen too waited to see the things unfolding. Li Xue looked at him and he returned her gaze with a smile.

In the end, the woman could no longer control her arms from enveloping the sweetness up on her lap. "WeiWei, you better not blackmail me with your sweetness. I won't be this easy every time. I am just like this because you have got your Daddy Angel looking at us. I would not want him to think that I am doing wrong to you. Do you understand that?" She said adjusting her little bun, keeping her legs in a side straddling position.

Li Wei instantly cupped her mother's cheeks into her hands as she made her look into her delicate, warm grey eyes that were beaming with the whole world's innocence. "How can my Mama do wrong to me when she loves me more than anything else? No one can misunderstand your love for me, Mama. I will never let them misunderstand it. You are the bestest mother in this whole world."

Hearing her words, Li Xue could not prevent her lips from forming the small curl. But she still had not got her enough dose of sweetness. It has been long since she has heard her princess sweet-talking for her.

"Don't lie to me now. You just said the truth moments before. How do you want me to believe you now?" Li Xue said, pursing her lips at her.

"Mama, I did not lie to you before. I told you the truth. But I have my reasons behind it. Like you said to me earlier that everything has a reason behind, remember?", Little Li Wei said, still keeping her hands over her cheeks. The mother raised her brows at her, not understanding what new reasons are waiting for her to know.

"It was to make God choose you among the others, Mama. You took my heart the first day I saw you. Then how can I bear to go to some other mother? I can never accept that. So I asked God to find me a Mama, who can cook the best desserts and at the same time love me the most. Because I always knew that no one can be better than you in preparing desserts and loving me. And God really chose you for me. Am I not intelligent?"

Intelligent! Baby, you are something even more than that!

Li Xue was speechless. Was there even any logic with which she could reason her? Even if there was any reason then also, there is no way she has that much active and high brain cells to think about it.

Pinching her cheeks lightly, she sighed in defeat, "Yes baby! You are too intelligent for your own good!"

As she completed her words, a loud peal of laughter was heard from the side, making the two girls look in his direction. The sound was melodic to the ears, none less than the soothing music. Li Xue's lips curled to give a smile, mumbling internally, 'Finally!!!'
