492 What About My Wedding? (1/2)
”Well, I would also like to know the answer to that,” Xin Zimen looked at Xiu inquiringly.
”To arrange the wedding of someone else's daughter, she is abandoning her own daughter!” Xiu pointed at Francesca accusingly. ”She should be worried about her cute daughter but no. She is busy having fun buying the wedding dress for someone else! What about my wedding?!”
”Xiu...” Francesca wanted to say something but Xiu refused to listen.
”Mom, I'm not falling for it. You said you're here for me. Well, guess what? You just ran off at the first chance you got. Shouldn't you be worried about my wedding instead?”
”I'm doing it all for practice,” said Francesca while Xiu frowned. ”I'm an inexperienced person. I don't go to weddings and I really know nothing about weddings. But I want my Xiu and Regi's wedding to be perfect. So, I'm trying to gather some experience.”
Xiu scoffed, ”Excuses!” She looked at Xin Zimen as if to complain, ”Do you know Xiao Zi? I didn't even see her in days. Apparently everything else is more important.”
”Okay, my dear daughter. I will only focus on you now. Give me a way out this one time, okay?” Francesca sat beside her and hugged her shoulder trying to coax her like a kid. She indeed didn't get a chance to meet Xiu in days and she also knew Darren wasn't around as well. No wonder this adorable daughter was acting so broody.
Xiu thought about it for a while before saying, ”I was kidding though. I'm not that petty to hold something this against you.”
”What? You scared me.” Francesca pulled her ear.
”Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! That hurts!” Xiu rubbed her ear when Francesca loosened her hold on Xiu's ear. ”By the way, why are you here? Did you already knew that I'd be here?”
Francesca pinched her small nose like Xin Zimen did earlier and shook her head, ”No, I didn't know it. It came as a pleasant surprise to me as well.” Xiu nodded her head. ”And I'm actually here to see Brother Zimen.”
”Oh...” Xiu again nodded and got up saying, ”Then you talk to Xiao Zi, I'm gonna look for some food.”
When she left, Francesca took her tablet from the table and passed it to Xin Zimen. ”Sister Wei said you asked for the guest list. So, here it is.”
Xin Zimen's eyes looked at her face and then at the tablet in her head. Even though he took it with a shake of his head, he couldn't help saying, ”If it was a digital copy, you could have just mailed it to me.”
Francesca's face stiffened. How come she forgot that? She knocked on her own head saying, ”Aiyo! It's all Sister Wei's fault. She told me to come here and give it to you. And I had been so busy with other stuff that it didn't even cross my mind that I could just mail it to you.”
Francesca read the names he pointed at and replied, ”I think it's Xiaoli. He asked Sister Wei to add these names on the list.”
”My son?” She nodded her head. He took a deep breath to calm himself before asking, ”What about this one? Are you really gonna invite Regan's father? Did you ask Regan?”
”What's there to ask? It's not like he and his dad are arch enemies or something. As long as he doesn't bring his wife along, Regan will be fine.”
”He and his dad might not be arch enemies but Regan and Zhou Jinhai hadn't been on good terms lately. Even Dylan is not on good terms with Zhou Jinhai. Why is he also invited then?” questioned Xin Zimen.
