Chapter 764 - Never Believed Her (1/2)
”If you worry about me this much, your boyfriend might get jealous,” retorted Xiao Li on purpose.
Ying looked at Han Bohai and said, ”Although he doesn't look like it, he is actually very understanding.” Ying spoke so naturally as if she knew him for years now. And seeing this, Han Bohai was genuinely pleased.
”Are you defending him right now?” Xiao Li's voice had a touch of surprise palpable in it.
”Obviously! That's my job as his girlfriend!” was Ying's response that made Xiao Li chuckle. He was amused to see that finally she actually said something like this. It showed how much Han Bohai was becoming important to her.
He raised his hands and said, ”I give you both my blessings!”
Ying tried to stand up to smack his head from across the table but she forgot she was injured, so ended up falling back on her seat. Glaring at Xiao Li who was still laughing at her, she gritted out, ”Who needs your blessings? Keep it to yourself! You are in need of it right now!”
”Ying'er!” Xin Zimen's voice rang out making Ying bit down on her own tongue. ”I hope you don't repeat it again.”
Ying lowered her head and nodded, ”Sorry! I didn't mean to say it.”
Xiao Li was still laughing at her as he said, ”Dad, it's okay. I don't mind.”
”I didn't ask you,” said Xin Zimen and Xiao Li decided to stay quiet.
”Nora, where is your Ah-Si?” questioned Dylan. ”I haven't seen him much.”
”He is taking care of Ava and Asteria,” replied Nora. ”And how is he mine? He is still his father's.”
Dylan tutted at her, ”You abandoned him that soon?”
Nora glared at him, ”What about you? Where is your girlfriend?”
Dylan's mood fell instantly as he replied, ”Cali had to make a trip to Italy. She said she needs to find something. She'll come back soon.”
Hearing the antics of the younger generation, the elders finally got to smile. And they felt their moods lifting up. Each of them had been shrouded in worry for days now. Only after spending time with these young people, they could relax.
After breakfast, everyone didn't immediately scatter around. Instead, they all sat down in the living room and each made a group of two or three to talk.
”Ah-Li, why don't you listen?” Ying's tone was harsh. ”Go and get some rest before you really collapse!” She rubbed her forehead, ”Don't play with your health!”
”Ying, you're really worrying unnecessarily,” replied Xiao Li calmly. ”I'll go to rest after a while. I just ate. Give me some time to digest.”
”You just never listen to me,” said Ying and looked at Han Bohai. ”Don't learn from him. If you didn't listen to me, I'll... stop talking to you!”
Han Bohai nodded obediently, ”I'd do as you say, Ah-Ying.”
”Wow, what an obedient boyfriend,” said Xiao Li. He took a moment before asking, ”Bohai, I heard you've worked as an assistant for a female superstar?”
”I did,” replied Han Bohai honestly.
”Why are you asking?” inquired Ying.
Xiao Li looked at her and said, ”Aren't you very suspicious of me these days? I can't generally talk now?”
Ying made a face at him doubtfully but didn't say anything.
Meanwhile...
”Darren asked about you,” informed Nora.
”He did?” Nora nodded and Dylan went on, ”What did you tell him?”
”I told him the truth that you're sulking outside,” replied Nora.
