662 Peaceful (1/2)
Since Han Yiheng had dragged Ying towards his nephew, now he stood before the Xiu, Darren, Cali, Nora, Jackie, and of course, Han Bohai.
”She's an interesting girl,” said Han Yiheng to his nephew.
”Was there ever a doubt about that?” retorted Han Bohai proudly.
Han Yiheng pulled his nephew's ear saying, ”Stop showing off before your uncle, you brat!”
Han Bohai tried to get out of his grasp as he said, ”But I always treated you as a friend. Can't I just be honest with you?”
”Regi, Xiu, what are you both doing here?”
Han Yiheng was frozen in his place when he heard Francesca's voice coming closer.
”Where else are we supposed to go?” inquired Xiu.
”Both of you should also go and congratulate the bride and groom.”
Xiu gave her a strained smile and leaned against Darren's body saying, ”I feel like my energy drained just hearing that.”
Darren chuckled at her and looked at his mother, ”We'll be right there, Mama.”
”Okay, I'm gonna go ahead.” She was about to leave when she looked at Han Yiheng and smiled at him, ”Hey, Yiheng! I didn't know you're here.”
Han Bohai was startled to see the speed at which his uncle's expressions and posture and even aura shifted. Just like a lovestruck teenager, Han Yiheng grinned and greeted her back, ”Yeah, well... I couldn't just say no Mr. Xin Zimen.”
”Oh, that's true. I believe not just anyone can say no to Xin Zimen,” she agreed without any hesitation.
As she was looking at Han Bohai, he hurriedly introduced him as well, ”Oh, this is my nephew, Han Bohai.”
Ying pushed herself into the picture with, ”And he is my boyfriend as well.”
”Oh!” Now, with that statement, Francesca paid even more attention to Han Bohai as she greeted him, ”I'm Francesca Salvay, Regan's mother.”
Han Bohai had to do a double-take as he looked at Darren and at Francesca. ”Aren't you too young to be a mother of him?”
”Oi! She is my mother whether she is young or not has nothing to do with you,” Darren finally spoke up.
”He was just saying the obvious, Regan. Don't get so worked up.”
”Sweets, are you taking his side?”
”But I didn't even do anything,” replied Xiu innocently.
”All of you stop it. Hurry up and come to the stage already.” With that Francesca walked away, not without saying, ”I'll see you around Yiheng.”
”Yeah. Sure!”
