Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Du Fan lessened the speed of the car as he slowly and slowly drove inside the royal estate. "Madam, we will now enter the royal estate and soon will be near the main entrance. Please don't mind the car speed as the royals had the speed limit noted at their estate entrance". He informed.

Li Xue hummed. Of course, she already knew that. This wasn't her first time visiting the palace after all. "Don't mind, Du Fan. Just drive according to the rules." She said and Du Fan nodded.

While at the same time, the little girl shifted all her way to stick on the window, enjoying the cold air on her face. "Mama, where are we going? This place looks different and WeiWei has never visited this place before. Are we going for a picnic? Is Daddy Angel also on his way here?" she asked in excitement as her little eyes exuding a shine of happiness captured the greenery out the car window.

Li Xue as well looked around and her eyes also shined with belongingness. She didn't know why but whenever she gets touched by the air of this place she feels that she wasn't visiting someplace that was unknown to her. Rather she gets the feeling like she was returning home. The home that has always belonged to her.

Maybe because the people here were very warm to her. Whatever may be the reason, she knew she couldn't define it properly.

"Mama?" When felt her mother not revealing the surprise to her, the little girl turned to call her again with a pout.

And on her sweet call, Li Xue was at once snapped out from her trance. Looking down at her with a smile, she said, "Sweetie, we aren't going for any picnic today. We will plan it another time".

Hearing her mother say that, Little Li Wei turned herself around to look at Li Xue seriously. "Then Mama, why are we here in this big garden? And I have also noted that the road we took today was opposite our house. Are we going somewhere else?"

"This is not a big garden, sweetie. This is the royal estate. When we go in, there will be a palace. We are today visiting the palace today. Are you excited about it?" Li Xue explained patiently. Though she knew that her daughter would get a little more talkative hearing the name of the palace and royal estate, she was sure she would be able to handle it.

And as expected, the little girl paused for a second as her eyes stared at her mother. "Palace? Is it the same palace of the king and queen that Mama used to mention in the bedtime stories?"

Li Xue nodded. "Yes, baby. It's almost the same as in those stories, but there is a slight difference. You will know when you visit it. Are you excited to look at the palace in real life?" She asked again. But this time as well the little didn't reply, instead, forwarded another question.

"Mama, in the palace, is there a King and a Queen as well?"

Li Xue nodded. And after her nod, the little one added another one.

"Are there also princesses like Cinderella and Snowhite?"

At that last question, it was time for Li Xue to give a thought. Pondering the reply for a moment, she pulled her lips with a smile and shook her head. "Umm … sweetie, there are no princesses like Cinderella and Snow White in this palace. But there is one Crown Prince. He is very entertaining in character and almost your age. I am sure that you would love him after meeting him".

"My age!" The little girl nodded, giving a thought to the idea. Her expressions were serious as if she was reading deep into some story and then like she had gotten all the answers she was looking for, her lips pulled into her usual bubbly smile. "I am excited to meet them. Mama, will we also be able to talk to them?"

"Yep, we will. But dear, you should be careful with your words. Don't upset anyone." Like a mother, Li Xue explained, and like an obedient daughter, Little WeiWei nodded.

"Don't worry, WeiWei knows how to be Mama's good child." Assuring, the girl again turned back to look out the window.

Soon they approached the last entrance gate of the estate. And as per rules of the royal palace, soon the security standing at the entrance stopped the car. And Du Fan lowered the window to inform them. But before he could say anything, the security guards that had approached them caught the sight of Li Xue sitting at the back.

They at once stepped back, bowing a little to greet, "Ms. Li Xue!"

Du Fan was taken aback. He wasn't expecting this. He stared at the guard while heard Li Xue speak from behind. "It's okay Du Fan. This is not my first time here. They might have remembered me. Don't get confused over a small thing like this." She said and Du Fan nodded, although the reason still seemed a bit unbelievable.

And to some extent, it was hard to believe for Li Xue as well. But to keep the thoughts simple, she just took that 'one visit reason' to be very reasonable. So,she decided to stick to it.

But little did she know that her identity was specifically mentioned to every guard and servant on the orders of Her Highness. So that whenever she comes to visit next, she doesn't get treated like an outsider. Rather the moment she steps in, she gets to feel like the place belongs to her.

Also, she was no longer a simple profile among the relatives, rather has become a mystery to everyone in the royal family. Though her close stories with the queen have long traveled and reached almost every ear of the people in the royal relative section, they weren't able to trace the details of her.

As the car drove in more and Li Xue passed by the security guards, she gently gave a nod of politeness to everyone. The security people as well smiled as they once more bowed in respect until the car disappeared at a distance.

Once they disappeared, one of the guards quickly went into the booth to make a call in the palace to inform. "Hello, please inform Mr. Cao that Ms. Li Xue has come to visit the palace".
