Feng Ning was about to say sothing when another man approached and greeted them. "I never expected that I will be seeing an old friend here."
Upon turning their heads, they saw Xia Sinian, holding a wine of glass.
Xia iren grinned upon seeing her brother. "I thought that you’re never going to show up here, brother."
"I have to take care of so things on my way here. Besides, I went to greet Mr. Andrew first before I ca here." He saw the little boy that his sister was carrying which made his eyes narrow but he decided to ignore him.
This didn’t escape Feng Ning’s eyes. Was Xia Sinian not good with kids? "I didn’t know that Sinian-ge is going to co here. How’s your work in China?"
"So far it’s going well." Xia Sinian said as he turned to Feng Ning. "When will you be going back?"
"I plan on going back next month." Feng Ning smiled. "I will be taking over the family business in China once I get back."
"That’s good, I look forward on working with you."
"Brother, how long will you stay here?" Xia iren asked as she placed Little lon back to his seat.
"Until next week, will you be coming back with ?"
Xia iren nodded. "I will. I think that it’s finally ti to go ho. Grandma and Grandpa keeps on asking when I’ll co back and I plan on giving them a surprise."
"I see, that’s good." He smiled. "I was able to hear all pf your achievents in the the news. To be able to win the International Chopin Piano Competition, the Leeds Piano Competition, and the International Tchaikovsky Competition within four years, I am so proud of you."
Feng Ning nodded in agreent, "Especially when you’re a female pianist. I always knew that you were good in playing the piano since we were young but I never expected that you’ll be a genius in the instrunt."
A light blush appeared on Xia iren’s cheeks. "Both of you flatter too much... of course I work hard and practice a lot to be able to be the person I am today."
"Momma is the best!" The quiet Little lon finally spoke up which made the grown ups rember that he was actually there.
Xia iren couldn’t help but smile. "Oh yeah, before I forget... Baby, this is my older brother, Xia Sinian."
Little lon looked up at Xia Sinian, "Nice to et you, uncle Sinian."
Xia Sinian gave him a nod before he turned to Xia iren. "So this is your son, Gua?"
"Yes. Isn’t he adorable?" Xia iren said proudly. "Anyway, is it okay if you can watch him for a while? I will just go and use the restroom."
"Mm, go on."
Xia iren turned and patted Little lon’s head. "Be good, okay? Mommy will be back soon."
After that, Xia iren left the three boys.
Xia Sinian and Little lon stared at each other for a while before Xia Sinian went and sat on a chair beside him. "Gua? What a funny na."
Little lon furrowed his brows upon hearing his na, he pouted. "It’s llo!"
Xia Sinian raised a brow in amusent, "Oh? Is it now?"
Little lon nodded a few tis, "llo’s na is Xia llo."
Feng Ning blinked a few tis. "Is Gua his real na?"
Gua ans lon, right? Feng Ning couldn’t help but wonder who nad the little boy after a fruit, after all, there are a lot of better nas than that.
"Yes, his real na is Xia Gua, my sister nad him this way." Xia Sinian said before he took a sip on his wine. He looked at Little lon and smirked when he saw how sour Little lon’s face beca. He can clearly see how the little boy didn’t like his na.
Feng Ning sighed heavily. "I can’t believe that Xiao i gave him this kind of na."
"I know. It must be because she doesn’t love him that much since he is-
"Momma loves llo a lot!" llo exclaid as tears started forming on the side of his eyes.
Xia Sinian leaned against his chair, "From what I rember, my sister didn’t give you the na ’llo’, it’s supposed to be ’Gua’, right?"
Feng Ning saw how Little lon was on the verge of crying. Since he was a child, despite how intelligent and behave Little lon is, he was a very sensitive boy, just like how other children are. Feng Ning know this. "Sinian-ge, you shouldn’t bully your nephew."
Xia Sinian scoffed. "My nephew? I never see him as one. If not for my sister, I would have put him into an orphanage."
Little lon was truly hurt by what Xia Sinian said since he knows what the word ’orphanage’ is. For him, it was a place where the children that wasn’t loved by their parents were brought.
Because of Xia Sinian’s hurtful words, Little lon bursts out crying. "Momma loves llo! She does! She does! Momma will never bring llo to the orphanage!"
He jumped off his seat before he run away from them.
"llo!" Feng Ning was about to follow Little lon but he was stopped by Xia Sinian. "Leave him be. He’s a problematic child. He will return once he calms down."
"He is just a small boy, Sinian-ge. You shouldn’t hurt him like that whatever the reason is. llo or Gua, he is a boy that Xiao i loves." Feng Ning sighed before he turned to run after Little lon.
Xia Sinian sneered before he looked coldly at his glass of wine. That boy was a son of a bastard that raped his sister, why would he treat him nicely? Little lon should be grateful that Xia Sinian allowed him to take the family na ’Xia’. If not for his sister, Xia Sinian was going to throw him off sowhere far.
But that boy’s face... Little lon looked like soone he knows. Who could it be?
