Chapter 902 - Competing With A Little Kid (2/2)
When Xin Zimen put it like that, no one would dare go after Xiu. They just sat down and waited patiently for her to finish up whatever she was up to.
”Bohai, don't you have any new projects? Why are you always stuck with Ying'er?”
Han Bohai pursed his lips as he looked at Ying before answering Xin Zimen, ”Uncle, I don't want her to be bored.”
”But if you continued to be so clingy, she might get bored of you.”
”If I wasn't so clingy, she wouldn't be my girlfriend even now,” he replied with a straight face in all honesty.
Xin Zimen chuckled at him, ”I love the way you talk, boy!”
”Zizi, aren't you a little too amused?”
Xin Zimen shrugged his shoulders at Ying and didn't reply to her.
”It seems I won!” came Xiao Li's voice from the door. ”I told you all that dad would be the first one waiting here.”
Behind him, Ah-Si and Nora ġrȯȧnėd in annoyance, ”But dad said in the morning, he was going out of the city.” Then Ah-Si looked at his father accusatory, ”Dad, how can you lie to us?”
”I didn't lie,” replied Xin Zimen. ”I was out of the city when I received the call from my little lass.”
”Then how are you here before us?”
”I have a chopper!” Xin Zimen's tone was so matter-of-factly that even his own son was stumped for words.
Currently, Ah-Si was questioning himself why did he even both to ask his father?
Xiao Li laughed happily, ”I still know my father best. How is it possible that Xiu calls and he isn't the first one to run to her? That's nearly impossible!”
”Did you bet on your own father?”
Xiao Li looked at his dad and smiled, ”Of course, I did.”
”What did you win?”
Xiao Li looked at his brother and his fiance in disdain, ”These two are very alike. They both love shopping. So, they both can spend a fortune on shopping but they'd never take a penny out of their pockets for bets.”
”So what did you win?” asked Ying.
”Nothing!”
Ying gasped at that, ”When did my best friend start taking a loss? That is so not like you.” But then she looked at Ah-Si and shook her head, ”But I shouldn't expect anything else from a bro-con like you.”
Xiao Li stared at Ying as if he was about to bite her flesh but soon closed his eyes to calm himself down. There was no point in resorting to violence when it was not necessary. He was here to get treats from his sister. He should ignore the rest.
”Since we all have been called here, it means, Xiu is up to something,” stated Nora. ”Does anyone know what is she up to?”
”If you want the right answer, look for Regan Darren Salvay,” came the answer from Ying.
”But where is Mr. Salvay?” questioned Nora in return because she couldn't see him anywhere. And she was told that Xiu was working alone in the kitchen. Since Darren wasn't following her around like a tail, then she was really curious to know what he was up to as well.
”Regi is upstairs,” answered Xin Zimen. ”Francesca had something to discuss with him so he had been with her.”
”Is anyone else left to come yet?”
”How can you all forget me?” came Dylan's voice from the door. ”Even if you forget me, don't forget Xiu's favorite brother.”
As Jackie trotted inside with Dylan, the rest of Xiu's brothers had a strange look on their faces. Whether it was Xiao Li, Ah-Si, or Han Bohai, all of them shared the same opinion about this little master. Jackie was a stealer! He always managed to drive their sister's attention away from them!
And all these grown-ups didn't even realize that they should be ashamed of actually being jealous of a little kid. How could they even think about competing with a little kid?
Dylan was having the time of his life right now. He was well familiar with what they had been going through. And it made him want to burst out laughing.
This family was really something else!
