644 Miscalculation (2/2)
”These two haven't changed at all,” commented Qiu Jiayi and shook his head.
”But your son definitely changed,” replied Xin Zimen and when Qiu Jiayi frowned at him, he pointed towards Dylan who was coming back with a huge smile plastered on his face and those loving eyes gazing at Cali.
”What's wrong with him?” questioned Zhao Wei as she also was as baffled as her husband seeing this strange scene.
It was hard to believe that their son was also capable of such a look. Dylan was holding Cali's waist as he guided her towards the entrance of the banquet hall while he continued to whisper sweet-nothings to make the girl in his arms laugh.
As he was engrossed in talking to Cali, he completely forgot that his parents were also around. He was about to pass by them when his ear was pulled by his mother making him yelp. ”Ma!”
”So you do remember I'm standing here, eh?”
Seeing Dylan's parents, Cali immediately greeted them in a well-mannered way. Both Zhao Wei and Qiu Jiayi greeted her with a smile but they both had a curious look directed at their son who hugged her closer saying, ”This is my girlfriend, Cali. Didn't you both want to meet her?”
Hearing her name, everyone had a look of understanding, ”So, she is Calista Novell?”
Xin Zimen's brows furrowed as he finally looked at Cali with interest. Her full name finally caught his attention and he had a strange look on his face now.
Saying a few words, Dylan dragged his girlfriend away from his parents' questioning eyes. ”He is really eager for a beating,” said Zhao Wei.
”Wife, it's better not to beat him now that he has a girlfriend.”
Zhao Wei squinted at her husband, ”So? I'm still his mother! If he thinks he can ignore me just because he has a girlfriend, then he really needs to think twice.” Her expressions softened a little as she added, ”We weren't gonna bite his girlfriend. At most, I wanted to thank her for everything she did for him previously and here he is showing me attitude.”
”Children have grown up now, after all.”
Zhao Wei turned around and hugged the old lady tightly. ”Auntie, thank you so much for coming!”
Ying's grandmother patted her back and said, ”Since your family invited me, I've to come. It's Xiao Li's wedding, I wouldn't miss it for anything.”
”Shania, didn't you say you'd be the first one to come? How come you're so late?”
Shania Chaun looked at Xin Zimen, ”I heard your parents are invited to the wedding. So, I was waiting to see whether they'd show up or not.”
”They won't,” replied Xin Zimen.
Shania smirked at him as she pointed behind her, ”This is one of those rare moments when you've miscalculated, Xiao Zi.”
Xin Zimen looked behind her and visibly froze.
