443 I Also Have A Life (2/2)

”Baobei, you work. I won't disturb you at all! I promise!”

”Neither will I!” Dylan also chimed in with the same stance as hers.

Darren, although had little faith in these two when they were together, still nodded his head and got back to work while Dylan dragged Xiu to the sitting area in a corner.

”How can you go back on your words?” Dylan whisper yelled at her. ”You promised to help me 'till Cali say yes. But now you're avoiding me! You neither replied to my texts nor did you pick up calls. What are you up to?”

”Oh, I'm sorry that I also have a LIFE!”

Dylan stared at her face, not knowing what he was supposed to do with her. ”You're really... Something!”

Xiu flipped her hair sassily as she stated, ”Honey, I'm not something. I'm everything you ever wanted but can't have.”

”Bloody hell! Did someone possess you overnight?”

She simply shrugged her shoulders saying, ”I don't care what you think of me. Besides, it can't be as worse as what I think of you.”

”XIU!” Dylan shouted her name in anger. ”Ouch!” Something hit the back of his head and he turned to stare at his best friend who pretended like he wasn't the one who just threw something at him. ”Dazi, this is the second pen you threw at me today.”

”Raise your voice at her again, and next time I'll throw you out as well!”

*Clap! Clap! Clap!*

Dylan looked at Xiu who was excitedly clapping around. ”Isn't my boyfriend amazing?” Oh, the way she gushed over her boyfriend was also enough to irk Dylan.

Dylan sat down and buried his face in his hands as he grumbled, ”You both are bullying me now. That's so not fair!”

Xiu stopped herself from laughing as she shook his shoulder, ”Are you crying?”

”What does that have to do with you?” retorted Dylan moodily. ”Go and gang up with your husband. You both make a perfect bully team anyway!”

Xiu tussled his hair as she sat beside him, ”Okay, okay. I'm sorry. I won't do it again.”

Dylan thought about it and took a peek at her expression as he questioned, ”So, you'll help me?”

”Idiot! When did I say I won't? Of course, I'm here to help whenever you want.”

”But you had been avoiding me.”

”I was not! I wasn't being sarcastic when I said that I have a life. I was busy.”

”You resigned. What else are you busy with now?”

Xiu really was getting tired of this stupid ex-boss who was insisting that she had been avoiding him. Come on! If she really was doing that he wouldn't be able to find her so easily.
