678 Tyrant Or Gangster? (2/2)

Xiu eyed her strangely before urging, ”Come on!”

Nora looked between the two elders before said in a flustered state, ”I was just imagining how much Ah-Si's grandmother is going to resist my marriage with Ah-Si.”

”But Ah-Si seems to respect his grandparents a lot,” said Nora when she remembered how she had heard so much about Ah-Si's grandparents from him.

”Your sons are really peculiar,” said Zhao Huan. ”Wen Ai never even had a civil conversation with your mother and then there are your sons. Always running around their grandparents.”

”As long as those old people don't mistreat my sons as they did with me, I don't mind my sons respecting them like elders. After all, their mother strongly advised them to always respect the elders and never let one generation's problems break the ties of the next generation.”

Xiu suddenly snorted when she heard those words and said, ”It's strange but I wish your wife was alive. I'd also like to know why you fell to a strange person.”

”Didn't Darren also fall for a crazy person like you?” said Nora making Xiu nod her in agreement.

”That makes a lot more sense.”

During all this exchange, there was someone who had been exceptionally silent for some reason. Ying was so quiet that it felt like she wasn't even there. But she had been standing right beside them all this time.

”Ying'er, why so quiet?”

Ying flinched, looked up at Xin Zimen, and said, ”Zizi, I was just wondering... Why did Aunt Ai choose that specific day to marry you?” She scratched her chin thoughtfully, ”She was an impulsive person but she always had a reason behind every action of hers.”

”And who said that?” asked Zhao Huan.

”My mom,” answered Ying. ”And also my aunt Feifei. They always said that no matter how impulsive Aunt Ai was, she'd never do anything without a motive.” She took a brief pause before adding, ”That makes me wonder what really happened for her to act on her impulse?” She looked at Zhao Huan and further asked, ”You must know. You said that Aunt Ai told you the reason. What was it?”

It wasn't every day that Ying would ask anything from Zhao Huan but still, the latter was unable to answer. ”It's something I can't share with you.”

Ying's eyes narrowed she said, ”Now, you just got me a whole lot suspicious.”

This remark earned her a smack on the back of her head from Xin Zimen. ”Ying'er, it's good to be curious but don't involve yourself in this.”

Ying shrugged her shoulders saying, ”But I'm already very involved. She was my godmother. She grew up with my mother. That's enough for me to get involved.”
