657 Not Another Lifeti
It was very easy to tell that Xiu's attention wasn't on the wedding ceremony. She was solely focused on her cellphone. It's not like she was interested in wedding vows and stuff. She didn't even need to pay attention just for the sake of reference.
From Darren's position, he had the perfect view of Xiu's phone screen and that's why he could actually read the conversation going on between Xiu and Han Bohai through texting.
The very first ssage she sent was, 'Don't tell you kidnapped my Ying Jie.' And soon followed another ssage followed with, 'And if you really did. Use this opportunity wisely.'
Darren almost choked as he looked at his wife who was having way too much fun in her own world of making assumptions. Or perhaps, that smile had sothing to do with the fact that she was talking to her Xiao Bobo. Now, this thought left a sour taste in his mouth. He had to say that he didn't even feel jealous when Xiu was around his own brother but he really felt envious whenever Han Bohai was in the picture.
And if he felt this way when he hadn't even seen Xiu interacting with Han Bohai personally, then one could easily tell how worse it was gonna be for him later on.
Within a minute, Han Bohai's reply also ca, 'How to use this opportunity wisely? Any suggestions? I'm open to anything.'
Xiu: 'Aren't you the one trying to seduce her? Why are you asking for suggestions?'
Han Bohai: 'You said you'll help .'
Xiu: 'I did say that. But... Today, I want her here.'
Han Bohai: 'We are here.'
Xiu: 'Where?'
She even craned her neck to look around but didn't even catch a glimpse of either Ying or Han Bohai. In fact, she knew very well that these two were supposed to share the sa table as her own. But she still looked around just in case but was disappointed.
Xiu: 'I can't see you.'
Han Bohai: 'We are outside the hall. Apparently, we are not allowed inside until the higher-ups say so.'
Xiu: 'Who the bloody hell is this higher up?'
Xiu was fuming in anger when she read his words but when his next reply ca, her anger deflated like a balloon.
Han Bohai: 'I'm not sure but Ah-Ying said Zizi doesn't want her to enter yet.'
Xiu stared at 'Zizi' for a long while before she looked up towards the stage at Xin Zin. As if feeling the intensity of her gaze, Xin Zin's eyes shifted montarily towards Xiu. As their eyes t, Xiu's eyes narrowed while Xin Zin's brows raised in question. They were sitting rather close to the stage so it wasn't difficult for Xin Zin to tell that Xiu looked like she wanted to say sothing.
Taking a deep breath, she typed her reply, 'If Ah-Xin says so, we should respect his wishes.'
Han Bohai: 'Oh...'
That was a weird thought.
So, he ended up asking Ying, "Ah-Ying, who is Zizi?"
"My godfather," answered Ying with a straight face.
"You an you're talking about Mr. Xin Zin?" Seeing Ying nodding her head, he took a deep breath. "Isn't it enough that you're the last descendant of the Su and Yan family? Why do you have to be related to Xin Clan in such a way?"
Ying's lips curled up, "My superstar boyfriend, I'm not related to Xin Clan. I'm only related to Xin Zin and he had long stopped being a part of the clan."
"So, it's just as my uncle says, big shot clans, all have internal trifles."
Ying shook her head at him, "It's more like, every family has its own scars."
He stayed quiet for a long while before saying, "I wonder why is that so..."
On Xiu's side...
Xiu was trying to contemplate over the possibilities of why Ah-Xin wasn't letting Ying Jie in. She didn't know whom she was eager to see though. Whether it was Ying or Han Bohai. It was a question worth discussing but she'd rather not do so for now.
"You know, dear wifey, even if you tell him to kidnap Ying, he won't be able to do so," whispered Darren near Xiu's ear as his hot breath hit her earlobe. Xiu raised her brow at him, challengingly. "I'm telling the truth. Ying isn't that simple. He might even get hurt in the process."
Xiu smirked at him in reply as she said, "I guess you really underestimate my Xiao Bobo."
"What do you an?"
Xiu's eyes flashed with a cunning light as she went on, "Ying Jie is aweso, no doubt. But Ying Jie is very straightforward. In fact, you can call her very simple."
"Simple? I've never heard anyone define Ying as simple," said Darren.
"I have a reason to call her simple. She is very obvious. You can easily tell that she'd be either playing a mind ga or a violent ga but Xiao Bobo isn't like that. He is very tricky. He can easily capture Ying Jie in his web of words in a way that even Ying Jie would be left confused about what happened with her." She took a pause to add, "And that I can bet on with my life."
"Okay. Let's not bet on life. Your life is very precious to ." He frowned before rephrasing, "I an to say my life is very dear to . And as you should know that you're my life."
"You never get tired of saying this, do you?" retorted Xiu.
"Wouldn't wanna waste another lifeti," replied Darren leaving Xiu speechless.
