660 Stubborn Ones (2/2)
”Wait! You're still not dating Yiheng?” questioned Elder Mistress Xin with surprise in her voice.
”Eeehh...” Feifei pushed Han Yiheng away from herself. ”Who wants to have him as a life partner? Please, say something that makes sense. I don't want a loner like him in my life.”
”As if you've millions of friends. You also have only me!” reminded Han Yiheng. ”Besides, I don't want to reduce my life by even thinking of dating you.”
”At least, I'm fun. Unlike you, Mr. Boring. You can even bore the boredom to death!”
”Yiheng, isn't your daughter in high school now?” asked Xin Zemin.
”Yes, she is,” answered Han Yiheng.
”And you still get in petty fights with Feifei?”
Han Yiheng cleared his throat and said, ”She starts it. Always.”
Su Feifei hugged her niece's shoulders, ”Dear Ying, do you hear the sound?”
”What sound?” asked Ying in amusement.
”That's the sound of betrayal!”
”Hahaha!” Ying laughed at her aunt before saying, ”You all really need to find another hobby.”
”But I like this one,” said Feifei.
”I believe only an oddball like you enjoys these arguments,” said Han Yiheng.
Feifei huffed at him, ”It'd be better if I just go and find my brother-in-law. He is better than you all.”
”Haven't you always been dissatisfied with Zimen?” inquired Elder Mistress Xin.
Feifei smiled at her in reply saying, ”Oh, no! I think you're talking about yourself.”
While Elder Mistress Xin's eyes narrowed at her, Feifei's free spirit had already sprinted away to find her said, brother-in-law. Meanwhile, Han Yiheng also pulled Ying aside to find his nephew.
”I hate the fact that her stubbornness reminds me of Wen Ai.”
Zhao Huan sneered, ”No, you hate the fact that there is someone like Wen Ai who dares to defy you.” She took a pause before adding, ”In fact, you hate Wen Ai because she was the reason Xiao Zi learned to stand for himself. In the end, you never wanted anyone to challenge your authority.”
”Zhao Huan! Have you forgotten your manners? Don't forget I'm still your mother-in-law.”
”Sorry!” Zhao Huan raised her hands in defense. ”I forgot how much you hate the truth. My bad. It's really my bad.” With that being said, Zhao Huan also made her distance from their table. She had already been drifted apart from this family since she couldn't have a child. It was only her husband who had been stubbornly holding on to her till now. Otherwise, this relationship might have long been broken.
However, this was something she had made peace with already. What she really wanted to know now was why her husband kept holding on to her. She had deluded herself for a long time with the thought that Xin Zemin held her back because he loved her. But she couldn't do any longer. Especially with the existence of Destiny Novell, she really couldn't bring herself to stay in her delusions.
