Chapter 417 - Bickering (2/2)
She snorted.
”Guess it was my fault worrying about you. I was stupid to bring this compress for you!”
”Yeah, give me back all my worries too that I wasted on your deaf ears over all these years!”
Their faces were livid with anger. Han Tian cursed.
Ugh! This was not how it was supposed to go! Why are we arguing!? I just wanted to treat her cold foot.
”Why are Grandma Grandpa fighting?” Siying came from behind Xia Liqin, adorably rubbing his eyes.
They froze.
”Si-Siying…”
Damn, I forgot the door was still open…
Han Tian quickly said, ”Sorry to wake you up. Go back to bed. It's still early.”
Siying stared at them and giggled. ”Grandma Grandpa are so lovey-dovey.”
”...”
”...”
What part of our fight was lovey dovey?
Xia Liqin smiled. ”It isn't like that…”
He puckered his lips. ”It is. Grandpa says that those who bicker actually care for each other a lot.”
They choked.
Did Dad say something like this?
They couldn't imagine Han Huizhong telling something so sentimental to Siying.
No wait…
”Are you talking about Xinyi's father?”
Siying nodded hard. ”Grandpa Soo!”
Xia Liqin awkwardly smiled. ”We weren't bickering. I was just reminding your Grandpa how awful he was.”
Han Tian's expression turned ugly. He sneered. ”Yeah. And I was reminding your Grandma how uselessly stubborn she was.”
Her shoulders trembled in rage.
Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind them. ”Fight your lover's quarrel somewhere else.”
Han Huizhong stood in front of them, his eyes filled with disdain. ”Thank you for such a good wake up call so early in the morning. Please have some mercy on us, and don't ring this type of alarm bell again in the future.”
Both immediately quietened down in guilt.
”Sorry, Dad.”
Han Huizhong saw the compress in Han Tian's hand and Xia Liqin's cold foot.
”What are you two making a traffic jam here for? Tian. Take her away and get done with the compress already.”
Xia Liqin said, ”It's okay. I will do it-”
He sneered. ”Yeah sure, ex-daughter-in-law. You will surely do it after I die. That's how 'short' you would take.”
Her face flushed red in embarrassment.
Then he looked at Han Tian. ”And you. If you become a hunched man one day, do me a favor. Quietly disown yourself from the family and never show me your face. I refused to have a hunched-back son.”
”...”
”Now get going, you two!”
