Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved
506 Unknown to your identity.
In Li Xue's heart, the Queen was already getting a respectable position. Not just because of the royal title but also for the way she treated her. She felt so warm and soft that for a moment a question arose in her heart asking if that was the feeling of being under the protective wings of a mother? Maybe yes! She was not sure because she never got a chance to experience that pure bliss.
She was thankful. Even if that was just for a moment, she has loved the feel of a mother's protective wings. But what left her confused was the Queen's endearment even after seeing Liu Hua and Wen Sying not around. Wasn't all that just a show?
She has thought that all this time the Queen was just helping her out because she has helped them save the king's life and they have promised to help her in tough situations in return. But now, hearing the Queen demanding her to call her with the same endearment of mother, she no longer was sure what exactly the things were turning to.
Neither she had the heart to reject her words. So, when saw her getting upset, she gave in to her words, after all, the Queen still had gone out of the way to help her.
Li Xue felt good when she saw the smile of satisfaction on the lady's face and did not understand what was so good about her calling her as the mother.
Wasn't the Queen already had many people around to entertain? Then why just on their second meeting, she has grown so fond of her? She thought but before she could draw any conclusion out of it, a piercing accusation from a distance hit her ears.
"Thief! You are nothing but a thief".
Both of the women's attention at once went to look at the person who has suddenly appeared. Chen Rui pressed her lips together when understood who was there. "You Jun!" she murmured lightly under her breath, looking at her sulky son arriving right on time to witness everything.
Li Xue did not give much of the reaction. Neither she was amused with the boy's childishness. She has already seen his enough childishness in their last encounter to know that his personality was full of it. And about his attitude of being possessive over his mother, was also not new to her. Being herself a mother of a super possessive child, she was all known to it.
"Ah, Xiao Xue, don't mind him. He is just like that. More kiddish at times. Haha …" Chen Rui said, rubbing behind her ears in a little embarrassment.
Li Xue also smiled in reciprocation. "It's fine, Your … ah I mean it's fine, Ma. I can understand.".
"Hey, thief! You better stay away from my mother. She is my mother. Who are you to call her that way?" Shin You Jun said, getting all grumpy at the scene. To him, his mother was his treasure that he would never share with anyone. Especially with the woman, because of whom he has gotten so much scolding last time in the hospital and also after. There is no way, he would forget that face of hers. From that day onwards, he has been continuously hearing about her in the bragging of his mother.
Hmph! Who was she calling her mother? This was his mother and only his.
He said to himself and quickly went forward to take his mother behind him with some protective instincts. His eyes already piercing into hers. But then suddenly, his eyes blinked with some remembrance as he remembered the same amber shine from two or more weeks back. "You are …"
"So, I understand now. You are still a kid, not a man to keep your words and promises. But it's okay you will grow up sooner or later", Li Xue confirmed his thoughts at once with her words as her eyes went to stare at the bike at a distance with a smirk playing on her expression.
Shin You Jun glared at her as he pointed his fingers up to her and said in a fierce tone of accusation, "You … You are the witch from that day. Wait, I will not let you off this time. That day …"
Before he could finish, he yelped in pain when felt the sharp pinch on his abdomen from behind. "Where are your manners, You Jun? Is this the way you talk in public? She is like your elder sister. Be a little respectful!".
"Ma! Who has an older sister? I don't have one, neither am I interested in one", the boy pouted with the sullen expression, clearly displeased at his mother's biases against him. Wasn't he the dearest son of hers, whom she has always loved? Then how can she side with this woman now? Did this witch cast some spell to take my mother on her side?
"Apologize now!" Chen Rui ordered with a frown, keeping his expressions in check.
And the young boy only shook his head, "Nope, I am not wrong to apologize, Ma! She is a witch and clearly trying to snatch you away from me".
"Nonsense!" The mother rebuked harshly as she turned again to Li Xue and said in a slight tone of disappointment. "Sorry for this brat's lack of manners, Xiao Xue. I will discipline him once I get back to the palace".
"It's alright, Ma …" Li Xue said, clearly trying to get on the already aching nerves of the boy. This boy severely needs discipline and she would make sure to put his mind at place bit by bit, every time she meets him.
"Who are you calling with that address again?" Shin You Jun asked in a challenging tone and the woman from beside him replied at an instant.
"Me! I asked her to say that to me. Do you have any issue in that, my dear son?" Chen Rui's voice coming all soft and slow, clearly emphasizing each and every word.
Li Xue smiled, seeing the sight of the boy at the front. Pitiful but was also full of fun!
Shin You Jun gulped down the lump he felt in his throat as she sealed his lips without any further saying. His mother's temperament doesn't remain well with his disobedience, so it would be only better if he keeps his words and attitude restrained and in check for some time.
The Queen gave one last warning glance at her son before turning back to Li Xue to say, "Oh, it's great you are here, Xiao Xue. I needed someone's suggestions while shopping. Will you accompany me inside for a little time?"
Li Xue thought for a little time. She wanted to deny but the way in which the Queen had asked her, she could only agree. So, she nodded and soon they turned to stroll more inside the mall.
But just before they could get any more further, suddenly Li Xue flinched back, seeing someone suddenly come to kneel near her feet.
"Ma'am, please forgive my offence. I was all unknown to your identity! If I would have known then in no way, I would have dared to behave that audaciously in front of you"
