Chapter 929 - A Hotel (1/2)
Before Xiu and Dylan could take their bickering to another level, Darren decided to interject.
”Didi, you really came just to inquire about my future plans?”
Dylan looked at him and sighed, ”Not really. I came to eat here.”
”Is this a hotel?”
Dylan made a face at him, ”Don't be like that. Cali took Ma and France to Italy because she has a designer friend there. Now, Ma isn't home to cook for me. And my dear dad spends all this time at his best friend's house. What am I supposed to do?”
”Oh, whining king!” Xiu called out. ”Focus on eating if you're here to eat.”
Instead of making Dylan run for his life, Xiu gave him a glare to eat in silence. Dylan obediently went back to eating.
Soon, another person chose to visit for breakfast. Just like Dylan, this newcomer also naturally took a seat at the dining table and looked at everything before her. Not finding something to her liking, she said, ”I want pancakes.”
Xiu looked at her best friend and then looked at Dylan before saying, ”Do you both always come here with mutual planning?”
Dylan and Nora shared a look before they both asked, ”What are you doing here?”
Dylan was the first to ignore her as he said, ”Xiu, I think your best friend is stalking me.”
”Get lost!” responded Nora. ”Why would I stalk you of all people? I have better things to do in life.”
”If you have better things to do, then what the hell are you doing here?” asked Dylan.
”Just wanted to have breakfast with my best friend,” Nora smiled sweetly at Xiu.
It was really amusing how lately both Nora and Dylan had been coming to see Xiu and Darren on the very same day. Every single time, they showed up on the same day. It'd seem suspicious to anyone. But it was indeed true that they never made any prior plans for such a coincidence.
It was pure coincidence that their timings for visits had been clashing.
Oddly enough, these two only came when they were hungry. And they always treated this place like their own home. Not like Xiu or Darren minded any of it.
And because this was regular, even the kitchen help knew all about them. Soon, a plate of pancakes was laid before Nora. She rubbed her hands and poured lots of maple syrup and cream on her pancakes.
Seeing the spread before her, Dylan's eyes looked at her longingly. ”I also want that.”
”You both are really treating my house as a hotel,” remarked Darren.
”Dazi, you're awesome!”
”Stop flattering me,” said Darren.
Because of these two, the breakfast was quite lively. And when it passed none of them even realized.
”Xiu, where is my nephew?” asked Nora.
”He is sleeping,” answered Xiu.
”Is someone with him? What if he woke up and started crying?”
Xiu shook her head at Nora, ”He won't wake up at this time.”
