487 Worrisome (2/2)

”Xiu, you sit over there.” Xiu furrowed her brows at him as he went on, ”I'll deal with this little devil.”

Seeing the determination in his eyes, Xiu nodded her head, ”Okay!” With that, she dragged both Ying and Ah-Si with her. She didn't want to disturb him so she took them out of the room.

Ah-Si still hadn't gotten any idea why Xiu was here or why Jackie was here. But he didn't question either since both of them had a relation with his daughter which he couldn't question.

”Stop worrying about your daughter. My brother only looks like he is angry all the time but he is a very sensible kid. I believe he'll be able to handle that daughter of yours.” Xiu felt like she needed to say it since Ah-Si looked really concerned.

”Can he really handle her? She might not talk but she has a bit of a temper like her mother.”

Hearing Ah-Si, Xiu chuckled, ”Then that's worrisome. Because if she's like Nora, she must also be fond of throwing things.” Ah-Si nodded his head in reply. ”It's still okay. He can manage.”

”How are you so sure? He doesn't even like her!” Ah-Si pointed out.

”Aiyo! He doesn't like you either. But so what?” Xiu was so calm but Ah-Si could digest it. ”If you don't have faith in him, have faith in me. I raised him well.”

Ying concealed her laughter with a cough at how Xiu sounded like a proud mother and just a moment ago, she voiced out how she didn't want to be a parent. Her words were really contradicting.

Ah-Si became even more tensed as he said, ”That's the most worrisome part that you raised him. And he shares the same temper as yours.”

Xiu smacked his back playfully as she said, ”You worry too much brother. Take it easy.”

Ah-Si was left speechless at her actions but Ying spoke up, ”Worrying is part of being a parent.” Xiu again looked at Ying who added, ”That's also what my mom said.”

”Seems like you're really fond of your mother,” said Xiu.

”Who isn't? Doesn't everyone love their mom? I never forgot what my mom told me.”

Xiu looked down with furrowed brows as she mumbled, ”I also never forgot what my mom used to tell me. But I wish I could.”

*Message Alert*

Xiu's ears perked up as she looked at Ying immediately who in turn looked at her phone and tried to hide it from Xiu.

”He replied, didn't he?”

”It's not him...” Ying replied while stepping away from Xiu.

”I won't read your boyfriend's message but you don't have to hide it from me.”

”Xiu-” Ying wanted to continue but her back hit someone and she went quiet.
