Ying didn't even have to look up to see who was behind her because that deep distinct voice was enough for her to know.

”Boyfriend? How come I never heard that our Ying'er has a boyfriend?”

Ying scratched her temple and turned around to wave, ”Long time no see, Zizi!”

Xin Zimen's frown deepened as he said, ”We met just yesterday though.” Ying pursed her lips and refused to talk actually she wanted to deny this allegation of having a boyfriend but the person beside Xin Zimen held her back. Xin Xiaoli was standing beside Xin Zimen and his eyes were also trained on her as if waiting for her reply.

Just yesterday she had claimed before him that she had a boyfriend. How was she supposed to deny it now? Wouldn't that be like biting her own tongue?! She really brought trouble to herself because of this tongue.

”Actually...” she began after much hesitation. ”About this boyfriend...”

”So, you weren't lying to me yesterday?” Xin Xiaoli cut her off before she could even continue. She stared at his face with a blank look.

”Yingying!” Her trance was broken when Xin Zimen called her again. ”Mind explaining yourself?”

”Why does Ying Jie have to explain herself? Having a boyfriend is not a crime,” Xiu spoke up and Ying glared at her. She was the one who used the wrong words why was she suffering? Oh, right! She lied! That's why she was suffering. Her lies really caught her soon.

Xin Zimen noticed Xiu's presence and couldn't help smiling in amusement as he said, ”Little lass, I never said having a boyfriend is a crime.”

”Then what explanation weird uncle is looking for?”

”As her closest family right now, I deserve to know who is her boyfriend and why is she keeping it from me?” He looked at Ying again as he continued, ”I thought our Yingying doesn't hide anything from me.”

”I never hid anything from you, I swear!” Ying raised her three fingers to show her solemn stance.

”Ying Jie, is it the same guy I saw you hugging yesterday?” Ying wanted to puke blood when even Ah-Si went on to disclose that information. Was it really necessary?

”It's definitely the same guy!” Ying closed her eyes in resignation. There goes Xiu, the fire starter making it worse! No matter how much she loved Xiu, right now she was really not happy at the way Xiu was enjoying this trap.

She slowly looked up at Xin Zimen who raised his brow at her. ”Zizi, I really never hid anything from you.”

Xin Zimen stared into her eyes for a moment before smiling at her. He placed his hand on her head and said, ”Have fun on your date.” Ying's eyes went round as he went on, ”Don't forget to bring him home sometime.”

”Ying Jie, what are you doing? Go already!”

However, she was just at the main door when Xiu shouted from behind her, ”Don't forget to give his clothes back to him!” Ying's feet came to an abrupt halt as she tilted her head to glare at Xiu while Xiu smiled mischievously at her. Weren't her words insinuating something?

With a huff, Ying left.
