512 Only Her Heart Was The Guide (2/2)

”I was being honest,” Xiu shook her head at the way Paige still would find a way to flirt with her. But she knew Paige only did it to tease her. And she happily complied, ”Besides, if you didn't forget your designs against me, my Baobei might really run out of his patience.”

”If I didn't love my life dearly, I'd have taken my chances against that boss of mine.” Paige laughed pleasantly before adding, ”Come, I'll take you to your Baobei. He might ascend to heaven after getting this surprise.”

Paige could already imagine the look on Darren's face. He was working hard to go back to his Sweets to give her a surprise and here was his Sweets coming to give him a surprise. They both really made one envious.

While Paige led the way, she brought Xiu to a hall where a banquet was going on. Xiu furrowed her brows at the scene before and decided not to enter.

”Huh? Why did you stop?”

”He is busy?” Although it sounded like she was asking, it wasn't really a question. ”I won't disturb him here then.”

Paige took her hand and tried to drag her in saying, ”It's just a party.”

”No, he'll get distracted if I went inside,” Xiu still stubbornly argued. She knew if she entered, Darren would leave everything and linger around her.

”If you didn't go inside, he might get eaten by those ladies.”

Xiu followed where Paige was pointing and looked at the crowd of ladies eyeing her man. Her brows twitched. But before Paige could drag her completely inside, another hand shot up to pull Xiu back.

Paige looked behind Xiu and finally noticed Gigi's presence. Her eyes widened considerably but her expressions didn't falter as she said, ”Let go of her.”

”If she doesn't want to go inside, no one can force her to,” was Gigi's clear reply. In her opinion, she was just doing her job.

Xiu looked at both of them and sighed, ”Actually, forget it.”

Both of them loosened their grip on Xiu's wrist and looked at her. Xiu seemed like she was thinking about something very serious.

Her eyes darted around in the big hall and when her gaze fell on that familiar back of Darren. It seemed like she neither needed to think nor did she need to hesitate. As always, when it came to Darren, only her heart was allowed to guide.

And as she had a habit of letting herself flow with the moment, she cleared every single thought from her head and sprinted over towards Darren's side.
