Chapter 282 - Nono In Trouble (1/2)
The next two days were rather quiet and troubleless. In fact, there was nothing noteworthy that happened during the next two days. Xiu went back to being a good employee and Dylan went back to being a good boss. Well, as good as he could become. But Xiu's meetings with Darren changed a little, instead of Darren waiting for her outside her apartment, now Xiu literally just stayed over at his place since Nora was not home as well.
On Friday night...
Since Nora had already informed Xiu that her mother was calling her home, Xiu decided to visit Jing Family home. Just as she pressed the doorbell, she could hear the sound of a tiny figure calling out, ”It's Xiuxiu, I'm gonna open the door for her.” Xiu's lips hooked up since she could even hear the eagerness in Jackson's voice. This little man was really anticipating to meet her.
He pulled open the door and was taken aback when two arms wrapped around his small frame. Xiu had already kneeled on the floor to match his height. Her bear hug almost crushed the little one in her arms but Jackson only giggled in happiness.
”Xiuxiu, I missed you so so so much,” he beamed.
Xiu stood up with him in her arms as she kissed his small face saying, ”Xiuxiu missed Jackie so so so much as well.”
”Hehe...” Jackson had a broad smile etched on his face.
”Aww, what an emotional reunion,” came the voice of Nora who had been leaning against the door frame looking at both of them. She even dramatically wiped her non-existent tears as she added, ”Xiu'er, I missed you so so so much as well.” She opened her arms to hug Xiu crushing little Jackie between herself and Xiu.
”Ah! Get off of us!” glowered both Jackson and Xiu simultaneously.
However, Nora being Nora didn't bother with what they were whining about as she kept her stance and didn't let them escape. ”Don't be so mean to me. I really missed you very much.”
Xiu rolled her eyes at Nora and pointed towards a paper bag at the floor saying, ”I missed you too as much as I could in the last two days. Now, will you please get that inside?”
Nora hesitated for a moment and reluctantly let her go before picking up the paper bag and walking back inside the house. Xiu followed behind with Jackson still stuck in her arms with his tiny arms encircled around her neck. He wasn't willing to let go as he kept telling her stories about school and whatnot.
”Jackie, let your sister take a seat first,” came Clara's voice as she saw her son clinging to Xiu like a koala bear.
”Hey, Clara mom!” Xiu greeted her with a kiss on her cheek while the later did the same as well. ”Don't worry about Jackie. I don't mind him doing this at all.”
Clara shook her head at Xiu and stated, ”You're the reason why he's turning into little minx now.”
”What did I do?” retorted Xiu feeling wronged for being accused so unjustly.
