Seeing her princess so excited, Li Xue had no idea what to do?
She has been urged to wear a black satin, sleeveless, below knee dress with a keyhole neck design, which was perfectly accentuating her curves and at the same time making her look more elegant.
Her fair shoulders were on the show to make the onlookers envy the way she has maintained herself. There was no extra fat which she needed to burn. Everything about her was so perfect that it can make any woman envy and men to admire.
"Sweetie! I think I am all ready. Now we don't have to make it loud. It would look odd if we go out like this, right?" Li Xue tried to bargain with her daughter but Little Li Wei was simply not ready to budge.
"No Mama, you still haven't applied anything on your face. Last time when I visited Aunt Yi Lan in her studio, she was asking her models to do some light makeup to look more beautiful than they actually were. She said it's good if they apply ... Ummm" the little girl paused to recall the memory from the day and when remembered she continued counting her words on her fingers.
"Yes, there were a few steps to follow. I have asked them from Aunt Meili there. First was the primer, then B … BB cream, some eye makeup and also some lipstick. That will make my beautiful Mama look more pretty" she said as she lovingly cupped Li Xue's face into her little hands.
It was very rare for her being this stubborn and when she does, Li Xue has no heart to stop her. Even in her stubbornness, she looked so cute and adorable that her heart couldn't resist giving in to her every demand.
Furthermore, kids have the tendency of being stubborn in their childhood and she can stop her daughter from living that. Pouting to her she nodded, "Fine I will apply a little makeup but I won't make it too loud. Especially when you are not telling me where we are going or what are your plans".
"Hehe, Mama! You are already beautiful, so too much makeup is not required. And about the surprise … haha that's still a surprise. And the surprise is no longer a surprise if it gets revealed. So can't reveal it yet, Mama!" Li Wei said with a slight giggle, keeping her little hands over her lips. Her eyes shone with happiness and excitement.
Soon Li Xue complied to her daughter's request and got ready applying a light lips gloss and some liners in her makeup regime. "So, am I looking good now?" she asked, smiling at her the little girl who has got her eyes fixed at her mother's every movement.
Instantly Li Wei nodded her head, giving a wide smile on her lips and a 'perfect' gesture with her fingers. To her, her mother has always been the best woman out in the world. Makeup or without makeup does not affect. She just wanted her to be in her best happy mood.
"You look awesome, Mama. Always the best. But now it's my time to get ready. Help me in getting ready! I want to look like my Mama's daughter. Pretty and beautiful!" The little girl added as she looked into the mirror.
"I can get you ready, but didn't you say that you are big enough and could manage yourself?" Li Xue asked, teasing her little one.
Li Wei shook her head agreeing with her mother's words as she has said those words before. "Yes Mama, I did say that but …" She paused as she turned to look all pitifully at her mother.
"But?" Li Xue was also waiting to hear what her devilic – angel was up to?
"But Mama, now I think I won't be able to manage it. You are looking so beautiful. I can't let you down. And I can't risk you too. What if some other cute baby comes up and claims you as her mother? How will I be able to take that? My Mama is my only treasure. I cannot dare to lose you"
Little Li Wei said making her eyes go all watery, putting all her hopes on her mother. Li Xue could not say anything more. Without any say, the words of the little girl had stirred the string of her heart. This mini devil was really getting better and better with her sweet words and reasons.
She wanted to ask her if someone was teaching her all this? But remembering how her daughter has made her responsible for her sweetness last time, she just could not repeat it again.
In the end, she could only shake her head at her and add, "No one can get your Mama away from you, sweetie. You are already the best one I could find in this whole world. How can I afford to lose you, baby!"
"Really Mama? Am I that great?" the little one asked again, innocently blinking her eyes. But Li Xue could see her trick to get some praises. Her daughter surely loves to hear praises. Such a sweet narcissist
"Yes baby, you are always Mama's awesome girl. Now come on, let me dress you up and braid your hair" she said with a smile as she pulled her girl up in her embrace and then carried her to the bed.
Placing her onto it, making their height go the same, she went to take the dress her daughter had planned to wear. As she has expected, her princess has chosen a twinning outfit with her mother, a black laced frock.
'Sigh! this little one still thinks to look like me!' Li Xue thought internally as she turned to look at her daughter, whose eyes were shining while looking at her.
Twinkling her eyes at her mother, the little girl said, "Mama, isn't that the best dress for me today? I will look more and more like you. Not only my hair colour but also my dress will be the same as yours"
"Baby, didn't I say to you last time that mother and daughter don't need to look the same. Even if they don't look the same, they are still called mother and daughter. Because they have got the same habits to share. Same as we do. Our thoughts and also the connection. We are so like each other. Isn't it?" Li Xue asked, walking back to her daughter.
"But Mama, those kids who don't look like their mother, will look like their father. Then am I like my Daddy Angel?" Li Wei asked innocently, tilting her head a little side to look at her mother.
Li Xue knew there were many questions in her little heart. Li Xue too wanted to answer them but there was no proper explanation with which she could make Li Wei understand those answers.
