Chapter 838 - I Dislike You (1/2)

Since Nora's boyfriend was having lunch with Darren and Xiu, she also went to have lunch with them. But when she came, she found Ah-Si helping Darren sit on a wheelchair while Xiu was standing beside him.

”What are you guys doing?” she asked in confusion.

”We are going to have dinner outside of this room today,” replied Xiu. ”Or are you expecting us to stay locked up in here?”

”That's not what I meant,” retorted Nora.

”What are you doing here though?” asked Xiu. ”To what did I do to have you visit me twice in the same day?”

Nora narrowed her eyes at her, ”It just shows how much I love you.”

Xiu snorted at her, ”Oh, please! You're here because I held your boyfriend hostage.”

”Then why did you do it?” Nora shot back.

”As if you can stop me,” was Xiu's reply as she walked past her best friend.

”I was gonna be nice to you today,” said Nora. ”I mean, I wasn't planning on arguing with you about anything today.”

”How can that be acceptable?” asked Xiu and Nora shut up.

During this time, both Darren and Ah-Si didn't interrupt this pair of best friends. Ah-Si brought Darren to the dining area on the second floor. He had already asked the nurses to bring Darren and Xiu's lunch there.

As Xiu sat down beside the window, she asked, ”Ah-Si, aren't you gonna eat anything? Or the tragedy of spicy beef noodles is still haunting you, little brother?”

Ah-Si gave her a look, ”Sister Xiu, can you not bring that up?”

Nora frowned at that, ”Hold up! Xiu is even younger than me, why are you calling her Sister Xiu?”

”Because she is wiser than me?” was Ah-Si's reply making Nora snort.

”She is childish and petty!”

”What did you just call me?” asked Xiu in a dangerously low voice.

Nora grinned at her sheepishly, ”You misheard.”

”Did I now?” Nora nodded her head in reply. Xiu didn't push it as she lifted the spoon to drink some congee. She took a moment and looked at Darren before asking, ”Regan, now that I'm looking at my best friend, it reminded me... Isn't your best friend taking way too long to show up?”

”He shows up every night,” said Nora.

”Like a thief,” retorted Xiu. ”Do you really think I don't know he comes around when he thinks we're asleep? But that's different! He isn't coming in the daytime.”

”Maybe he is suddenly scared of sunlight?” suggested Nora.

”Why? Did he become a vampire overnight?” Xiu shot back.
