Chapter 705 - Answer or an understanding.

WeiWei swung her mother's hand in fun as she walked out of the school with a big smile on her face. "Mhm. Mama, WeiWei was happy seeing you so careful today. You neither missed your mask nor the parent's pass. WeiWei is so proud that you learned it well". She chimed, suddenly stopping to praise her mother. 

Li Xue's steps also paused along with her daughter as she looked down at her. Seeing her cheerful smile, she smiled as well. "Really?" she asked and the little one at once nodded. 

"WeiWei never lies Mama."

"Indeed, my little devilic-angel never lies. How could mama even doubt that? But what I want to ask you is, how are you going to reward me for that? You appreciated me but sometimes appreciation should accompany rewards as well". 

"Same as Mama rewards me with appreciation?" Little Li Wei asked and the mother nodded in response. "Then, WeiWei will also do the same as Mama. She will also give you the same reward. We can go and have ice cream". She said jumping in excitement but her excitement took a halt when saw the disagreement on her mother's face. 

"What happened, Mama? Did you not want ice cream?" She asked, feeling a little perplexed. 

Li Xue shook her head in denial. "Ice creams are not my favorites, sweetie. Are you planning to reward me or are you looking for a way to reward yourself?" She asked and the little girl could not help but giggle at the thought. 

"Hehe … Mama, that would have been a nice plan but WeiWei has never thought that way," Li Wei said, before again turning to walk forward with her mother. "If Mama doesn't like ice creams, then let WeiWei think of something that Mama loves more than broccoli". She said and the mother let her think while taking a slow stroll in the parking lot. 

"Mhm .. the car is already near. You can take your time while we drive home." Li Xue said, but the very next moment, felt a tug on her arms asking her to stop again in her tracks.

"That will be too long to wait Mama. I already know what your favorite reward will be." WeiWei said with a knowing smile over her lips. Li Xue looked at her, not sure what plans were running in her head. 

"And what is that?" She asked doubtfully, squinting her eyes at her daughter. 

Little Li Wei didn't say anything, instead gesturing to her to crouch down to her height. Li Xue didn't reject her request. She never got a heart to do that. 

Crouching down to her little's height, she asked, "Your Highness, here I am on my knees. Now, tell me what is my honor". 

At such animated words of her mother, the little girl suppressed a giggle. "Hehe … Mama, 'Your Highness' is used for the queen and that's you. I am just a little princess to you". She reasoned correctly before approaching a step forward to her mother to pull her hands up to hold her mother's cheeks on both sides. 

Then bending more forward to both side angles, she pecked her cheeks. "And to a Queen who owns the whole kingdom, nothing can be more precious than her little princess's appreciation kiss. So that's my reward to you. Are you happy now?" She asked and the mother was all speechless. 

She was not wrong. Nothing could be more precious to her than this. She stared into her grey eyes that blinked and shined expectantly at her, waiting to hear her satisfaction. 

Smiling, she nodded. "Very happy! That was the best reward that I can only receive from you. Thank you, sweetie." She said as she leaned in to wrap her small body in her arms before pecking her cheeks with love. 

"Hehe … WeiWei is also happy. But if we stay like this here, I doubt we will be the last ones to leave the school today and the driver uncle in the car will also be bored then. Let's not make him wait, okay?" She said like a little mother and looking at her like Li Xue could only chuckle and nod in agreement. 

"Okay, WeiWei Mama. Let's not make anyone wait any longer" She said, before standing up to leave at once. 

Soon they got in the car and the drive was made towards the Little Carnations. In the back seat, as usual, WeiWei went to sit cuddling in her mother's arms but unusually remained silent, as if she was busy pondering over something serious. 

Li Xue didn't notice at first but when even after reaching half of the way, the little one didn't say anything, she could not help but ask her, "WeiWei, is there something you are questioning about and not getting an answer?" 

Little Li Wei tilted her head to look at her mother and then nodded in a yes. 

"Then are you not going to ask Mama about it? Usually, when you didn't get answers, you ask me for it. Are you not going to do the same this time? Do you think the question is too difficult for me to answer?"

WeiWei at once shook her head. She never thought that way. "No, Mama. I didn't think like that. Since I have said that I am growing a big girl now. I should take responsibility for those words too. So, before coming to ask you, I thought to give all my brains to it" She defended her delay, before turning properly to face her mother. "Mama, it was you who said that it is a good habit to take responsibility for one's words. Am I wrong to do that?"

Li Xue shook her head in denial. "Nope, you are not, baby. But remember, there will always be some questions which will not require answers and instead will need your understanding. If you remain busy finding the answers, instead of understanding the issue. You will never get one". She explained, but it didn't go through the little one's understanding. It only made her stare confusedly at her mother. 

"Mama, I didn't understand". 

Li Xue pressed her lips together at her confusion. She knew some things were too hard for children's understanding but at the same time were important for them to understand. "Umm … How about you tell me the question, then we will decide if it requires an answer or an understanding?"
