784 Get The Wrong Idea

Ying scowled at her, "From all that, you had to just pick up only one thing?"

Xiu nodded her head, "If Li bro\'s mother had been alive, she\'d have definitely forced you two together."

Ying scoffed at that, "Aunt Ai only wished for us to get married. She\'d never force anyone." She took a brief pause and went on, "However, if she\'d been alive, she wouldn\'t have let Ah-Li get married to Meihui."

Xiu nodded her head and said, "I didn\'t know your mothers were not only best friends but also shared the same birthday."

Ying smiled bitterly, "It\'s because of that that my mom doesn\'t celebrate her birthday anymore. She doesn\'t even like anyone bringing that up."

"She must be feeling lonely without her best friend," said Xiu sympathetically. "I can\'t even imagine my life without Nora now. She is not just a best friend or a sister to me, she has become a part of me. A very important part."

Ying hummed in response, "Maybe that\'s why my mom turned into such a cold person as well. She lost her crime partner, so she is always away from this country which reminds her of her best friend."

"But she left you behind," said Xiu.

"She did not."

Xiu heard the voice and looked towards the door. It had been days since she last saw Xiao Li and right now, he looked very different for some reason.

"Ying is the one who decided to stay behind when her parents moved," told Xiao Li as he walked over.

"I was worried, you\'d miss me," said Ying that earned her a snort from Xiao Li making her grumble under her breath.

At this point, Xiu didn\'t even need anyone to tell her why Ying had made that decision back then. And it gave her a very complex feeling.

"Li bro," Xiu called out. "I just heard you\'re almost named squishy. Hahaha. That\'s so funny."

Xiao Li\'s lips twitched as he said, "Thanks for reminding me of that."

"Oh, you knew?" asked Xiu with a bit of surprise.

He nodded in reply, "Mom even used to call me that." He sighed out, "That\'s why I hope you don\'t randomly give your kid a name. It\'s gonna get stuck with them for life."

Xiu pouted at him, "I wasn\'t going to." She looked at Darren as she asked, "Right?" But seeing how Darren\'s eyes were closed, she frowned, "When did he fall asleep?" Thinking that he must be tired, she lowered her voice and said, "Li bro, why did you come so late to see me?"

"Because I didn\'t want to disturb you," he replied. Then he looked at Ying and said, "You also go back to your room to rest. Stop disturbing her."

"Why should I?" retorted Ying. "I\'m not disturbing her. I\'m here to cheer her up."

"Your face is even depressing," said Xiao Li.

Xiu held Zhao Huan\'s hand and said, "Now that I see that I\'m glad these two didn\'t get married. It would have been a disaster."

"They both are walking disasters," was Zhao Huan\'s reply. She caressed Xiu\'s hair and said, "You should also have some rest now. I\'ll come to see you in the evening."

Xiu nodded her head in reply.

Zhao Huan addressed both Xiao Li and Ying, "Both of you should also leave now."

"But I just got here," said Xiao Li.

"You can come to see her later in the evening."

Xiao Li sighed out, "But I might not be here in the evening."

"Where are you going?" questioned Ying before Xiu could ask that.

"I don\'t feel obligated to tell you that," retorted Xiao Li. Then he walked to Xiu\'s side and touched her head saying, "Take lots of rest. I\'ll try to be back in the evening."

"You should also take care of yourself," replied Xiu and he smiled at her while giving her a reassuring look.

Xiu closed her eyes to rest when the three of them left the room.

Outside the room, Ying looked suspiciously at Xiao Li as she asked in a low voice, "Where are you going?"

"I already said I\'m not answering you," replied Xiao Li.

"If you say it like that, I might resort to following you like a shadow."

Xiao Li looked at her and said, "I\'m going with dad wherever I\'m going. Do you still dare to follow me?"

Ying\'s eyebrows furrowed up, "Why would you go anywhere with Ah-Xin?"

"He is my father, why can\'t I go anywhere with him?"

Ying shook her head, "No, it doesn\'t make sense. Now, I\'m even more suspicious of what you\'re up to."

Xiao Li poked her forehead saying, "Stay suspicious. I can\'t help you with that." He turned to leave but stopped after a couple of steps. He looked back at her and added, "Go back to your room. If you can\'t walk, don\'t go hopping around. Are you planning on making it worse? I have enough on my plate right now. Don\'t add more."

Ying squinted her eyes at him, "Are you worried about me right now? That\'s no way to show your concern. Be a little nicer!"

"When I\'m nicer, you get the wrong idea."

Ying snorted, "I\'m still getting the wrong idea!"

Xiao Li exhaled a long breath and silently turned back to leave. It was really no use to show some concern for her. She\'d never be happy with it. She just had to mess up with him.

As he descended the stairs, he was met with his father who had been waiting there, "When are we leaving?"

"Now," he replied and walked out of the house with Xin Zimen behind him.
