บท 8: Possessiveness was in her blood

The principal was behaving arrogantly, thinking that no parents will ever give away the opportunity to have their children in their school. Not only was it the best school in the city, but also famous and well-known among the students studying here.

The children, from almost every prominent wealthy family of the city, were studying here, awarding it the title of the prestigious school of the city. Their prestige was not directly related to the talent the school was giving to the country or the city, but from their association with such wealthy families.

When Li Xue heard the principal's arrogant words, the last string of patience she was holding lost its hold. The air of politeness that was on her face moments before was now nowhere to be found. Her eyes only held fierceness, which is what she was feeling in her heart.

This principal was really too much. Firstly, there was no guilt on her face or demeanour, even after knowing that it was her who was at fault. And above that, she still has the skin to behave so arrogant, implying there is no way she will dare to remove her daughter from their school.

Really shameless!

"If this is what you call the best school, then I am sorry, I really don't want to give my daughter this type of education. Because it will only bring her the worst knowledge. And about finding a better school in this city … Please rest assured, if I can't find one here, then we will definitely go to another city. After all, you know it the best, that there is no lack of the best schools in our country. The type of school who has received the title for shaping a true talent, and not by associating itself with a wealthy family", her words were so sharp that it easily pierced the arrogance that the principal was showing before.

There was no word left through which the principal could retort. Her single blow of the truth was enough to shatter all the walls of the worthless conceit she was building, in the name of school.

"Thanks for your valuable time, Mam. I won't be bothering you more", Li Xue turned, and left the office without giving any second glance at the shameless principal.

Soon the bell rang, indicating the classes to be over.

When Li Wei came out of her class, she saw her mother standing and waiting for her. Her lips instantly curled upwards into a beautiful and adorable smile. "Mama!!", she screamed, as she ran to her mother.

Looking at her daughter running towards her with her stubby legs, she smiled and took long strides to reach her. The moment she was near, she picked her up, and gave her a a tight warm hug . This was how they were used to greeting each other, after the little girl returned from the school.

"Mama, you are here to pick me up? Why didn't brother Bojing come?" the little girl asked, as she looked behind her mother, trying to find Bojing who usually comes to pick her up.

"Today, I thought about picking my baby up. So brother Bojing didn't come. But I think my angel does not like her mother anymore. That's why she is not happy?"Li Xue said, faking sobs to pretend that she was upset.

When the little girl saw this, she giggled and then wrapped her arms tightly around her mother's neck, putting her face on the crook of her neck."Mama, you can never go for acting. You should always be my mother, that way you will be the best."

Hearing her daughter saying that 'her acting sucks' in her own cute way made Li Xue smile too. "Are you looking down on me now?"

The arms around her neck instantly got a little tighter, as a soft voice said to her ears, "Mama, I am happy that you came to pick me up. Now we can have my favorite ice cream" She then turned her head a little, as she planted a soft kiss on her mother's cheeks.

"My little devilic – angel really knows how to coax her mother. Let's go, I will buy you ice cream, but only a small scoop because you already had chocolate pancakes for breakfast", Li Xue said as she carried her daughter towards her car.

On their way a soft little voice suddenly came from behind, calling out Li Wei's name.

"Li Wei!"

Li Xue turned to look behind, from where the voice had come from. The little girl also looked around only to find her classmate calling her. She looked at her mother, "Mama, this is my friend XiXi"

Li Xue nodded and then let her daughter down, so that the two little girls could talk.

"Li Wei, is she your mother about whom you were talking about?", The girl, named XiXi, asked.

"Hmm, she is my mother", the little girl said, as she wrapped her arms around her mother's legs possessively. Seeing this small possessive side of her daughter brought an amusing smile on her lips.

This was something she had never come across. So her daughter has a possessive side in her. Seeing her hugging her legs like that, she found her really adorable. Her fingers moved on its own to caress her soft hair. It has become her habit to caress her like that.

"Hello XiXi! I am Li Wei's mother. It was nice to meet you", she greeted the other girl.

"Hello Aunty!", XiXi greeted her in return with a blush. She then again turned to Li Wei, and said, "Li Wei, your mother is really beautiful like you said. Okay bye, see you next day." The girl said, then ran away.

Li Xue still had to register the girl's words because her words weren't clear, having a slightly small voice. But she can feel her daughter stiffening beside her. She doesn't know what suddenly happened to her. So she looked at her and asked, "What? Is there something wrong?"

"Mama, I really like you coming to my school to pick me up. But it would be better if brother Bojing comes to pick me up tomorrow", she said, and then quickly tugged her mother to head out.

Li Xue really had no idea that her daughter has a different level of possessiveness in her. Possessiveness was something that was in her blood.
