Chapter 945 - Priorities (2/2)
”It has nothing to do with Regan,” Xiu chimed in. ”I wanted to lose the extra weight. My doctor said it's not good for me. Besides, don't you know being healthy is what matters. I have to be healthy to live a long life for my son.”
”What about me?” Darren questioned.
”And also for my Regan,” added Xiu with a smile on her lips.
”Xiu, can I take Rowan?” asked Jackie.
”Of course,” answered Xiu. She took her son from Darren and let Jackie carry him. Jackie carefully carried Rowan who was enjoying the ride from one person to another. Seeing him take Rowan to another side, Xiu had a sweet smile on her face.
Dylan patted her shoulder to get her attention, ”Since we are celebrating, how about something sweet?”
”Why not?”
”Really?”
Xiu smiled at him and answered, ”Of course, Sweets is right in front of you.”
Dylan's smile stiffened as he snorted, ”I am talking about the real sweetness that reminds you of heaven. Not the kind that reminds me of hell!”
Darren slapped the back of Dylan's head, ”Aren't you talking too much today?”
”I always talk too much,” said Dylan in his defense.
”Then today you're talking unnecessarily.”
”That's also something very common for me,” said Dylan without any embarrassment.
”Guys, I think Dylan is missing Cali way too much today,” Nora couldn't help saying. ”That's why he is looking for a beating.”
Dylan sighed out sadly, ”Don't remind me. I haven't met her in a month! And every day feels like a long and lonely year.”
”Dramatic!” commented Xiu.
”Learned from you after all.”
”It seems you don't want cupcakes anymore,” threatened Xiu.
Dylan was instantly floored, ”I do! I do! I do! Shifu, your disciple had momentarily lost his mind. You're the big person, let bygones be bygones and forgive this peasant for his mistake.”
”And I remember someone saying we are eager for a free meal, what about you?” questioned Nora.
”We are talking about sweet heaven called cupcakes!” exclaimed Dylan. ”Can food even compare with cupcakes?! Not even in a million years!”
”Our Didi has his priorities clear,” said Darren. ”Also, his preferences!”
Xiu ruffled Dylan's hair, ”I already made cupcakes. I knew you'd remind me of it today.”
Dylan didn't even mind that she ruined her hairstyle as he said, ”It just shows how good you know me.”
Xiu beckoned him to follow her, ”Come with me and get your cupcakes.”
Dylan hurriedly followed her inside while Nora also ran after them shouting, ”Hey, wait for me! Don't let him eat my share!”
Darren looked at Ashley and smiled sheepishly, ”Sorry about this again. They really can't maintain their image.”
Meanwhile, Ashley had only one thought in her mind, this was really a family of crackheads!
