Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 997 - Calling You With Your Rightful Title.



Li Xue could just shake her head while looking at the boy at the distance. She never thought him to be getting so serious over the simple thing. Did he really think his mother was some toy that she could snatch away from him? 

How childish! This boy still needs time to grow up. 

She thought internally while heard him direct the maids all meticulously about the things. "Is he always like this?" 

"You are asking me?" Chen Rui asked back when heard the girl mumbling to herself under her breath. 

With awkwardness, Li Xue turned and shook her head. "It's not you whom I asked exactly, but more like, I questioned myself. He seemed a bit different, few moments before but just when I thought that he might have grown up, he is again there to his same old routine." 

Chen Ruin smiled but agreeing to the girl, she nodded. "You know people are different. That is his kind. He would remain all playful and childish in his usual time but would turn out all severe the next moment if he finds harm coming to his family. And earlier what you saw in his attitude was his protectiveness for you." 

Li Xue understood what the lady said, but for some reason still hesitated to accept it. Looking back at the boy, she came to sit beside the lady and ask again, "You mean he was protective to me because he had already accepted me as his own." 

A confident smile got over the royal lady. "Why else you think he referred you as Elder sister earlier." 

"But after that, didn't he fight with me again?" Curiously, Li Xue asked. In her life, she never had a brother so she didn't know what a brother's love was like. Wouldn't it be similar to the one she shared with her sister, Li Yenay? 

Chen Rui looked at the girl's curiosity and couldn't help but smile. "Dear, the relation between a brother and sister is a lot different from what you might have shared with your sister before. And this would be something you would only understand as time would pass by. Or there is another way to get to the core of it." 

Li Xue didn't understand it but looked very interested. "What's the other way?" 

"You can try bringing a little brother to WeiWei and seeing them grow together. That will be a more interesting process to learn." She said and for a moment, Li Xue was taken back with that suggestion. 

Her cheeks flushed red with some awkwardness as rubbing her ears, she tried to dodge it. But the lady remained firm on her words. "What are you getting red for? Don't think I don't know. You have already got your golden books." 

Chen Rui said and Li Xue was not surprised to hear her already knowing it. In the golden books, earlier she has well seen the royal seal which only meant one thing that their marriage registry was approved by the royal couple. Hence, they might have already known it. 

While Chen Rui looked at Li Xue. Though she has begun the topic just to tease her for fun, there was also a hidden motive behind her suggestion. A motive to secure her position and life in the Feng family. After all, she would never want to see her daughter ending up like Yun Yuchun in the future. 

Even though she knew that Feng Shufen would never be like his father, she could least trust the other members of that family. 

"Young Miss, do you need anything else?" Right when both the ladies were trancing off in their own thoughts and plans, a maid came to ask and Li Xue was at once snapped out from her thoughts. 

Looking, she shook her head. "Ah, there is nothing. You can leave, thank you." She said and the maid gave a smile to her before retreating. 

While Li Xue turned to look at the lady to finally say, "Ma, don't you think them calling me as Young Miss sounds like a little exaggeration. I mean it might create problems for you all." She said, expressing her concern to which the lady just shook her head. 

"No, it won't. They are just calling you with your rightful title. Since you are our daughter, Young Miss of the Royal Palace is the only suited title to you. So, get used to it." Chen Rui said and the firmness in her words told Li Xue all clear that in no way she would be accepting any rejection to her words. 

And to affirm more, Shin You Jun came to add as well, "What? Thinking of backing off now, Elder Sister? Don't even think of that. Since you dare to take half of our parent's love, now accompany me sharing the burden of royal title and responsibilities as well." He said and hearing him, Li Xue could just think of it more seriously. 

"What? Are you already scared, Elder Sister?" Seeing finally the woman in thoughts, Shin You Jun thought her to be in a dilemma. Intending to scare her more, he was ready to weave a plot of his own. 

But before he could Li Xue lifted her eyes to give a confident smile before saying, "Why would I be scared? Isn't my younger little brother already there to guide me? Huh?" 

At once, the Crown Prince's lips pulled in a pout. He was ready to retort but someone else's voice came to interrupt. 

"Seems like the Crown Prince of Chiboa is enjoying his fun time at home along with Her Highness and ..." The voice came and it immediately made the three people turn to look at the entrance to find the man standing there with a mysterious smirk. 

Li Xue found him familiar. But couldn't remember where she had exactly seen him. Trying her best to remember that face, she was about to recall back her memories when the changed attitude of Shin You Jun intervened. 

"What are you doing here? And from when did you start walking inside the palace according to your own will? Didn't you remember that before appearing you must ask permission for it?"
