Chapter 1376: Mama, the beauty lies in you..
After having the medicines, Li Xue herself didn't realize when she dozed away. It was only when she felt someone caressing her hair did her eyes flutter open. She looked around only to find the little head popping up beside her, smilingly moving her hands over her hair.
"Good morning, princess! You are up already? How are you feeling?" Li Xue asked, finally feeling pleased after seeing the little one back to her usual smiles.
Little Li Wei smiled and then leaned in to kiss her mother first on her cheeks. "Mama, did you stay with WeiWei the whole night?"
"Mhm." Li Xue nodded, feeling amused with her happiness. She couldn't understand what made the little one so happy suddenly. "You were not well last night so Mama has to stay with you. How can I leave you alone like that? Are you fine now?"
The little one nodded. "WeiWei is all perfect now." She said, playing with her mother's hair.
Li Xue had never liked people touching her hair. It always annoyed her. But for some reason, the little one's touch was not annoying. Rather she was liking the smile of satisfaction she was holding while doing that.
"You like playing with my hair?" She asked and WeiWei nodded her head.
"Mama's hair has always been so soft and silky. WeiWei likes to touch it." Li Wei said and then pausing for a moment, she added, "Mama, when will I have the same hair as yours?"
Li Xue enjoyed her small innocent talks and didn't think to spoil the play. So when the little one asked her like that, instead of giving any direct answers, she popped her head slightly and tried to look at hair.
"Aye, I feel yours is better. Anyway, show me how much better it is and I will tell you when it will become like mine"
Li Xue said and Little Li Wei at once turned around showing her hair to her. After which Li Xue roughed and pressed it before cheering to say, "See, I told you. Yours is better than me. Softer and silk-ier. Come on, now tell me, when will my hair get like yours?"
She said before sitting up on the bed and then tugging the little one back in her arms so that her back was pressed to hers.
WeiWei got comfortable in her arms and then played the swing in her arms. "Mama, you are intentionally saying it like that, right?"
"Do you think I am lying?"
She asked and the little one paused for a moment before answering diplomatically, "I feel your hair is a lot softer and silk-ier than mine."
Li Xue smiled and then kissing over her hair from behind, she said, "That's because I am older than you, sweetie. When I was at your age, my hair was also like yours. But when I grew up, and became the model I had customized shampoos and conditioners and several other things. So, it becomes like this, otherwise your hair is more beautiful than mine."
She said and WeiWei heard her all sincerely before nodding understandingly at her. After a small while, she asked, "So, Mama, does that mean my hair will always become like yours when I grow big?"
"Definitely not, sweetie. Didn't I say that yours is better than mine? When you grow big, your hair will be more shinier, smoother and silkier than mine."
Li Xue said and a pretty smile got over the lips of the little girl. "Really, Mama?"
"If you believe that I don't lie then you can say so." Li Xue said before caressing the hair of the little one. "Okay, since you have such nice hair, come, I will make it more beautiful. I will help you braid it and then we can go downstairs."
She said and then was ready to get off the bed. But before she could, WeiWei hugged her, stopping her in her movements.
Her action was so sudden and desperate that for a moment, Li Xue couldn't understand.
Wrapping her arms slowly around her little body, she asked in a tone of consolation. "Sweetie, what happened? Are you fine? You don't want me to braid your hair?"
But the little one shook her head. Li Xue was again about to ask, but before she could, WeiWei's hug grew tighter and she said, "Mama, will you stay back with me everyday if I remain sick everyday?"
Li Xue was taken aback. Her heart squeezed as she pulled the little one to look at her face to ask, "You want me to stay here with you?"
WeiWei looked up at her mother and nodded, "Mama, with you around everything is more beautiful. You have said that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. But WeiWei has realized that beauty lies in you."
"So, whenever you are around, everything is more fun and beautiful." The little one said and at her words like that Li Xue's heart literally melted.
"Mama, if I remain ill, will you come back to stay here with us?"
Li Xue pressed her lips in a thin line and stared at the expectant innocent eyes of the little one. "To keep me beside you, you don't have to stay sick. Don't you think staying fine would be more fun?"
WeiWei tilted her head to both sides and looked at Li Xue with a pout. "Mama, will you even stay when I am not sick?"
Li Xue hummed and nodded. "Of course, baby. If you want so, I would never refuse. But I have a condition. You have to stay all smiling always. Do you know how bad I felt when you were not there to welcome me yesterday? We missed so much fun together."
She said and WeiWei guiltily pressed her lips. "I didn't want to miss it, Mama. I was simply scared when I saw the maid. Is she alright now?"
Li Xue understood the fear of the little one now. So, when she heard her speaking about the fear, she pulled her back in her arms and said in a softer tone. "Nothing happened to her, dear. She is all fine. She got a little hurt. You don't have to get scared of things like that. Aren't you brave? Furthermore, we are there for you. Do you think there could be something that you should be get scared of?"
