Chapter 366 - Thats a major step for him (2/2)

After DX dismissed her, he turned to Kai Xin and asked, "Do you want me to go with you while you talk to your mother alone?"

"I don't mind, but I know that you've something to do," said Kai Xin. She smiled, "Why don't you get some work done first? Once your mother comes in, I think you'd be unable to work."

DX nodded. He gave her a kiss on the cheek before he jogged up the stairs.

Kai Xin went to the backyard and she overheard her mother saying to Naomi, "Naomi, you're a good girl… But you're too good. Aren't you going to attack my son? What's wrong with him? Is he not to your liking?"

Kai Xin burst out laughing at her mother's way of selling her son out. She joined them at the patio and said, "Mum, aren't you being too forward? Naomi is not the type of girl to attack a man."

Naomi blushed and embarrassed, she immediately covered her eyes. She then got up and offered Kai Xin her chair while she leaned against the wooden handrail.

Kai Xin accepted her offer and once she was seated, An Qi Yan asked, "How are you?"

She nodded, "I'm feeling better now."

"Your dad called…"

Surprised, Kai Xin looked at her mother before asking, "What… What did he say?"

"I don't know. I hung up on that idiot," said An Qi Yan as she waved her hand dismissively. However, she added, "But at least he called to ask about you… Your dad cares about you, Kai Xin."

When Kai Xin did not say anything, An Qi Yan said, "One day, he'd wake up and he'd regret about everything and all the time that he lost… But for now, that's a major step for him."

Kai Xin nodded as she absentmindedly rubbed her belly. Little Monkey had been more active lately and Kai Xin wondered if it was because the little baby knew that she was about to meet everyone.

An Qi Yan watched as her daughter chatted with Naomi Nakamura who had placed her hand on Kai Xin's belly because she wanted to say hi to Little Monkey.

She knew that even though Kai Xin had never said anything, she was actually hurt by her father's abandonment. It angered An Qi Yan but there was nothing she could do when that "idiot" refused to talk to anyone.

Suddenly, someone yelled, "UNDER TWO HOURS! I WIN!!!"

Naomi Nakamura shook her head while Kai Xin looked at her wryly as she asked, "So, you like a man like my brother?"

They both grinned at each other before all of them made their way into the house.
