Chapter 565: Pretty Little Darling
Xiao Luo had actually sent Su Li a message as soon as he stepped foot in Xiahai, telling her that he had returned. Not surprisingly, all he got back in response was a single “ok,” so he did not bring Zhang Dashan to meet Su Li when he returned to Crescent Bay. Instead, he returned right to his own apartment.
“Jesus Christ! A crystal chandelier, European-style furniture, gold color as your central theme, and a Mediterranean vibe permeate this apartment. Lao Xiao, this is essentially fit for a king.”
Zhang Dashan had been thoroughly shocked by the luxury of this apartment, but he immediately changed the topic. “Where’s Goddess Su? I can’t wait to meet such a superstar–just thinking about it is already getting me excited!”
Xiao Luo rolled his eyes at him. “Get yourself together. You’re reeking of sweat, hurry and take a shower. The bathroom is over there; I’ll bring you a fresh set of clothes.”
“Do you have clean underwear? Give me a dozen or so if you do,” Zhang Dashan said.
Xiao Luo’s expression soured. What he really wanted to give the man was a good punch in his face.
Zhang Dashan could feel that something was not quite right. He hurriedly changed his tune, “If not, I’m good with a pair of boxer briefs, too. You can’t expect me to go commando after the shower, right? I’d make a fool of myself if little me acts up, and I don’t have any underwear holding it down.”
“I’ll go look for some!” Xiao Luo said impatiently. At this moment, he genuinely felt that he had gotten involved with the wrong crowd in his college days. There was simply no end to how crass this man was.
…
…
Just as Zhang Dashan was whistling and entertaining himself in the bathroom as he showered, the doorbell rang.
Xiao Luo knew that it was definitely not Su Li, as she would just let herself in without ringing the bell. He opened the door and saw Su Xiaobei and Su Canye standing outside. The girl was like a jade carving with a pair of glimmering eyes on her rosy face, her little braids tied up in curls. She was dolled up in a pretty white dress, making her look every bit as adorable as a princess in a fairy tale.
“Daddy, huggie! I want a huggie!”
The little girl had gone too long without seeing Xiao Luo, and she promptly stretched her arms out toward Xiao Luo for a hug.
Xiao Luo had missed her quite a bit too, and so he bent down to lift her up.
“Bei Bei missed you so much, Daddy,” Su Xiaobei said in her sweet voice with her lips pouted after she pecked Xiao Luo on his forehead. She nuzzled in his arms as she let Xiao Luo hug her.
Xiao Luo pinched her little face. “I missed you a lot too,” he said, as he carried her over to the living room, “Daddy brought some toys for you, see if you like them.”
He gently sat her on the stool and took out a box from his suitcase, opening it to reveal a toy electric piano.
“Wow, give me the toy, Daddy. I want the toy, Daddy!”
Su Xiaobei was at an age where she loved all sorts of toys, and seeing the electric piano naturally made her very excited.
Xiao Luo smiled gently. He had wanted to teach her how to play, and he did not expect Su Xiaobei to reach out with her tiny little hands the moment the toy piano was placed in front of her. She pressed down on every one of the keys. Each of the keys created a different note, and the little girl was extremely entertained.
“Xiao Luo, I heard from Su Li you went traveling to the Maldives?” Su Canye asked.
He had blond hair on her head, studs in his ears, pale skin, and black eyeliner around his eyes. He was wearing his iconic black leather jacket. It was typical of Su Canye to be decked out in such a hipster outfit.
“Yeah,” Xiao Luo replied.
“D*mn, why didn’t you bring me along with you? I heard the view there’s to die for, especially the sea. They say it’s heaven on earth, and I’ve wanted to go there for some time now. I can’t believe you’d sneak out there on your own. Where’s your sense of loyalty?” Su Canye said, stewing in his own gloominess.
“Just go there with your wife after you get married. Why do you need me to bring you there?” Xiao Luo said.
