Chapter 839 - Scold! Scold! Scold! (1/2)

Xin Zimen felt like someone just punched him in the stomach and he couldn't find a way to breathe now. He didn't know why but the idea that Xiu 'disliked' him, just pierced his heart brutally. He was speechless. It wasn't that he had nothing to say, it was because he couldn't seem to form words.

And his internal struggle might not be visible to anyone else but Su Xixi who was standing closest to him could feel it. She could even see his trembling hands. It momentarily shocked her. She suddenly realized that Xiu's importance in Xin Zimen's life was a lot more than what she had initially suspected. Just one frown of Xiu was enough to affect Xin Zimen.

And this made her look at Xiu all over again in a whole new light. She was wondering why it was. In the week she had spent around, she could see the uncanny similarities between Wen Ai and even Xin Xiulin. It sounded bizarre, but she had to say Xiu was really like a grown version of Xin Xiulin.

Xiu stepped over to Xin Zimen placed her hand on her hip saying, ”Ah-Xin, I'm very displeased with what you did to my little brother.” Xin Zimen looked at her in a daze as she continued, ”Is he a kid you can scold? He is a father of a kid, why do you seem to forget that?”

Xin Zimen took a deep breath and said, ”You said you dislike me.”

”When did I say that?” retorted Xiu.

”You just nodded,” he reminded her.

”I nodded because you if I'm pointing at you,” replied Xiu. ”Why would I dislike you? But I do dislike the way you're trying to upset my little brother. He just recently got better, you shouldn't scold him so harshly.”

”Is this about me confiscating that bowl of noodles?” asked Xin Zimen.

”Not really,” said Xiu. ”But it's related to that.”

Xin Zimen held her shoulders and asked her in a stern voice, ”You don't dislike me right?”

Xiu frowned at him, ”Why are you repeating that? I love you. I respect you. I admire you. Where did dislike fit in all of that?”

Xin Zimen heaved a sigh of relief and closed his eyes. It was as if relief had washed down his senses and he could finally breathe again. She didn't dislike him. It made him beyond happy.

”That's good,” he muttered in a small voice with a smile.

Xiu glared at him, ”What's good about it? I think you're really not understanding what is happening here.”

Xin Zimen looked at her and asked, ”What is happening here?”
