Chapter 884 - What Did I Say? (1/2)

When Xiu woke up, she had no idea that her sneak plan had been exposed, and not only her, even Han Bohai was also under the fire along with her. And the fire cannon was in the hands of Yan Ying who wanted to burn these two people who dared to trick everyone like that.

And she also didn't know that she had actually had a phone conversation with Xin Zimen since she seemed to have woken up from a dream that had Xin Zimen in it. With that dream and what happened in reality, it was hard for her to distinguish which one was real and which one was fake.

Besides, she had slept for the whole day, it was already afternoon when she woke up, and now, her brain was quite disoriented.

”Sister Xiu, you're finally awake!” said Han Bohai when he saw her coming out of the bedroom while scratching her head like a crazy person. Her whole appearance was something that could give people a headache. But she didn't care how bad she looked after she woke up, she only knew that her stomach was protesting.

”Food,” that was the only word she said as she sat down on the high stool that faced the counter and perched her face on her hands.

”I knew you'd be hungry after waking up,” said Bo Jiu as she hurried to arrange the dishes that she had been keeping warm all this while. ”Eat a lot, Xiuxiu. You need a lot of energy to stay the coolest Xiu!”

”Why is it that even after going through so many punishments, you still have the nerve to butter me up?” Xiu was really baffled that even after she had taught so many lessons to this girl, she was still the same girl who tried to curry favor by offering her coffee on her first day at work. She didn't change even one bit!

”I'm super shameless!” retorted Bo Jiu.

Han Bohai spurted out the coffee that he had yet to swallow. He coughed a little and looked at Xiu saying, ”Sister Xiu, she is really your apprentice.”

”What are you trying to imply here?”

Han Bohai shrugged his shoulders carelessly, ”You always attract people like yourself. Since you're shameless, even the people surrounding you are shameless. There is no doubt.”

Xiu took a bite of the meat in her bowl and chewed patiently. ”There is nothing wrong with my attraction energy. I think the problem is with the people being attracted to me.”

”Oh, so something is wrong with your husband as well? Is that why he is attracted to you so much?”

Xiu turned her head to glare at him, ”My Regan is a part of my soul. Soulmate! He isn't attracted to me at all. He is in love with me.”

”Show-off!”

”Jealous!”

Bo Jiu silently observed these back and forth attacks of words and commented, ”Xiuxiu, I never knew you had a childish side as well.”

Xiu didn't want to continue this either, she chose to silently eat and replenish her energy before starting again. An empty stomach, she couldn't even argue.

After she was done eating, she leaned back in her chair and rubbed her stomach before letting out a burp in a completely unladylike manner. However, both the people around her didn't have any reaction to what she was doing at all.

Bo Jiu was focused on her laptop while Han Bohai was still immersed in the taste of his coffee. Xiu decided to take a walk on the open terrace of the presidential suite to digest the food.

And while doing so, something came to her mind. ”Xiao Bobo, did anyone come here when I was sleeping?”

”No,” replied Han Bohai. ”Why are you asking?”

”Are you sure?” Han Bohai nodded. ”So, my father didn't come, right?”

”Which one?” questioned Han Bohai and saw how Xiu paused for a moment at that question.

Bo Jiu also chose this moment to chime in, ”Doesn't everyone have only one father?”

”No,” replied Han Bohai. ”Some people are fortunate enough to have more than one father.”

Xiu narrowed her eyes at him, ”Or maybe they are so unfortunate that they can't even say it.”

Bo Jiu observed these too keenly before pointing out, ”When I was young, I was told that computer language is the most difficult language in the world. My inner competitiveness took over and today, I find even binary language a lot easier than the game of words that people play with each other. What kind of code language is this? And why am I not able to understand it?”
