Chapter 599 – Keep The Track Of Cuteness.
Back in Little Carnations, the air seemed fresh and fragrant. Cheerful giggles were ringing in the place while a pair of little stubby feet were marching to and fro from time to time.
"Mama, will we need more capsicums? Should I bring some more from the refrigerator?" The little girl asked as she tried tip-toed over the kitchen counter to look at her mother's cooking.
Li Xue smiled at her cheerfulness as she said, "No, sweetie! We already have enough here. No need to bring more".
Little Li Wei nodded at her mother while her eyes stared consistently at her mother's movements. The mother looked down at her and could only sigh at her persistence.
This little one was too determined for her own good!
Keeping the spatula in hand aside, she bent a little down to only pick her baby up in her arms first in one swift go.
Li Xue didn't say anything; instead kept her eyes only on her. The little eyes did the same too, stared at her mother with all concentration.
"Mama, has WeiWei grown cuter now?" suddenly Little Li Wei asked, tilting her head to one side with a big smile over her lips.
Li Xue squinted her eyes at her. She was about to say something, but before she could even begin, the little girl added some of her explanation hurriedly. "No, no, Mama, WeiWei is just asking. Don't think that she is favoring looks. WeiWei still remembers her Mama saying that 'Beauty is nothing at the surface, rather it remains in the eyes of the one looking at it'."
At her innocent urgency, the mother could not help but give out a small chuckle. As usual of her, little devil! She knows both to take and to dodge the questions well. Shaking her head at her quick wittiness, she put her on the kitchen counter, safely away from the heated stove.
Nudging her nose with some adoration, she asked, "Really, my little Devil remembers everything well. But if you truly remembered it, then why did you ask Mama the same again? Didn't Mama already say that to her, her sweetie is the cutest and the sweetest in the world?"
Little Li Wei pondered for a moment at her mother's words, rubbing her chin lightly. Then as if, found her defense reason all ready and well, she quickly wrapped her little arms around her mother's neck and smiled. "But Mama, WeiWei is growing now, so she needs to keep her track of cuteness. So that if someday, Mama thinks to gift WeiWei a little brother or sister, she could compare her cuteness with them and see how likely they look to their elder sister".
Li Xue was at once dumbfounded at her words. Her cheeks got flushed for some unknown reason as her eyes blinked at her daughter. Little brother or sister? What was this little devil up to?
Though she knew her daughter's words were all innocent and had no second meaning behind them, still, when it comes to these things, the story doesn't begin from just anywhere. Something or the other must-have triggered this thought into her little head.
So, holding her blushes all soberly, she forced a smile onto her lips before asking her princess, "WeiWei, who said that Mama could gift you a little brother or sister? It's not Mama but Heavens."
Li Wei was confused at her mother's askance for a second, but then she said, "Didn't Mama gift me Daddy Angel? Since she could gift me, Daddy Angel, then the same would also go for little brother and sister. It would also come as the gift from my dearest mother".
In reality, there was nothing wrong with the little one's logic. Her daughter was all right and perfect according to her theory she has learned, but Li Xue still felt an urge to facepalm herself. This is why people say a slight misconception could bring a disaster later. She should have explained to her daughter earlier that people in life come as gifts from fate, not from her.
But maybe it was not too late yet. Li Xue let out a deep sigh as she thought to explain her daughter with a new beginning.
"Sweetie, things are not always that way. However, we have been given a chance to have some people around us according to our plans. But most of the time, it's your fate that brings them to you. Like even if you think that Mama has gifted you Daddy Angel, but fate has made you meet him first as Handsome Angel, right?" Li Xue said, trying her best to explain, but she was unsure what she was saying and what her words were coming out as. She was even doubtful if her little one was even properly getting her words.
And seeing her little one's brows also tugging more severely in puzzlement, she could say that even the little one did not understand a thing between her words.
But Mama, how can that be? Daddy Angel said the same. Did he lie to me? But he never lies," the little girl asked all innocently, frowning a bit on her words. Her Daddy Angel would never lie, neither with her Mama. Then? She looked at her mother waiting for her to say, while Li Xue was all speechless and muddlehead at the situation.
"What did your Daddy Angel say, sweetie?" She asked, pressing a weak, forced smile on her lips. There was nothing apart from this that she could ask her little one at this moment.
"Daddy Angel said that my little brother and sister would come only when you want to gift me. So, I asked Mama about it". Li Wei replied.
Li Xue could no longer reason out things in her head. What exactly was Mr. Beelzebub thinking while saying that? Only if he could be here, she would have asked him. She thought, and the moment she did, she heard the voice from the entrance.
"WeiWei!" Her eyes paused as it went to stare at the man who has appeared, all of a sudden to fulfill her wish. She was only resurfaced from her trance when she felt the tug of her daughter from the side, asking her to put down.
Li Xue didn't hesitate to agree before putting her angel down. The moment the little one set her foot on the floor, she sprinted all her way in her Daddy angel's arms with a broad smile on her face. "Daddy Angel, you are back. Mama and I were working on the school assignment I told you about. Now that you are also back, you can join us too," She chimed, softly pecking her Daddy Angel's cheek.
The man nodded before looking at the woman. She was glaring at him for something that he was unknown of.
