Edward shrugged and took another bite of the bread roll he'd picked to eat.
”How about your sisters? Any of them taken?”
”Why? You want to add them to your body count too?”
Edward laughed, ”The only one of you that I might have been interested in has a baby that looks like her.”
Even though Su realised what Edward meant, she acted like she didn't.
”No way! You have a crush on Mai?” She threw her hands over her mouth, feigning shock.
”Mai has a baby?”
Su nodded emphatically.
”Who would have thought,” Edward laughed. ”And the baby is still alive?” He couldn't imagine stoic Su being able to woo a man long enough to give her a baby who'd actually survived a day with her.
”What the hell?” Su laughed, ”Of course the babies are still alive.”
Edward nearly choked on his soup, ”What?”
”She has three kids,” Su revealed, then shocked Edward further by adding, ”Mai's the only one of us that's married.”
”Wow,” was all he could say. How unpredictable like could be sometimes. Mai the bull (his own private nickname he'd given her) married? Wonders.
”How about Chapa?” Edward decided he'd faint if he heard she had a baby as well. He hadn't even been sure she had female organs when they were kids.
Su laughed, ”Chapa's always been a prude and she never leaves the house, unless we force her to. She's going to marry my parents.”
Hmm.
”What do you have planned for the day?”
He didn't have anything actually. Since he was being closely watched, he had to put a check on the places he was found in before the party.
”Why?”
”Well, my sisters and I are going on a hiking trip.”
Edward laughed, ”Ladies hiking before a party? You trying to fit into your dress or something? Would have imagined it would be the spa.”
”Very funny,” Su tsked and tossed a shrimp at Edward. ”We are all in good shape and besides, the spa comes after.”
They looked at each other and smiled.
The meal continued over casual conversation. Edward asked basic questions that might help him figure out whether this hiking trip he had agreed to go on was all a part of the plan. He figured it was anyway.
They wanted to get as much out from him as they could. But Tai Pin had sent the wrong set of the people.
He would never reveal a thing to his daughters even if they were all innocent. They would find a way to mock him about it and make the rest of his living miserable.
At half past eleven, after spending close to three hours in the room, Su Ya stood to leave.
”Well, after that meal, I just might be pregnant again.”
Edward laughed, ”For your own sake, I hope you're not.”
He walked her to the door.
”Thanks for stopping by, it was a pleasure.”
”You're not rid of me just yet. I'll pick you up by one.”
Edward nodded. He watched her enter the elevator before locking his door. He didn't have any clothes that would be suitable for hiking, not to talk of his shoes. He placed a call to Viktor.
”I'm going hiking with Tai Pin's daughters.”
