Chapter 62 - Interlude: Xu Xing (1)
Lang Jinzhi closed up his phone and said in a low voice, It was from Zhong Yuhuan.
Mr. Lang paused for a second and said, OhB, your aunts child.
Lang Jinzhi nodded.
Mr. Lang paused again and said, I thought you havent seen or talked to her since your aunts funeral?
I helped her out on some things adopted a couple of kids and put them under the Dings.
Oh, Zhong Chi was a bit much. Its not a bad thing to adopt a couple of children to keep her company, said Mr. Lang.
Lang Jinzhi acknowledged his fathers words then, after thinking for a little bit, added, Last time I had dinner with grandpa, she came too. Even brought me a gift.
Oh yeah? Then if she has time in the future, why dont you invite her to have dinner at our place? said Mr. Lang, a bit surprised.
Lang Jinzhi nodded.
The two switched the subject after that, and the topic never came up again.
Lang Jinzhi, on the other hand, made a mental note he could treat his little cousin better from now on.
They tried a few times to set it up after that but it has yet to happen, either Zhong Yuhuan was too busy or Lang Jinzhi was too busy.
Before they were able to meet up for their dinner, Xu Yunhuis son had arrived at Zhongs. Xu Xing came home from school lugging his suitcase behind him.
Zhong Yuhuan leaned over the banister on the third floor and looked down sluggishly.
Whatd you looking at? asked Huo Chengming as he walked over to her with a big bowl of large strawberries in his hand.
Zhong Yuhuan casually picked one up and tossed it into her mouth as she smiled and said, Looking at Xu Yunhuis son, of course.
Huo Chengming said in a low voice, If he dares pick on you
He wouldnt dare, said Zhong Yuhuan as she patted Huo Chengming on his arm. His arm is tight, slightly bulged up with a thin layer of muscle that only belonged to a youth. Zhong Yuhuan was genuinely surprised, she couldnt help but exclaim, Wow, Chengming-ge ge has muscle on his arm now!
Immediately, Huo Chengmings mind was somewhere else.
His entire neck turned beet red, and he grunted lowly, Mmm.
As they were talking, footsteps could be heard at the front door mixing with the laughing from Xu Yunhui.
You have never taken a good look at this before you left for school. Come, let us show you your room first, okay? Xu Yunhuis tone was more tender than normal and her face szx loving.
Xu Xing was skinny and bespectacled. A backpack on his back, he wasnt showing a lot of emotions on his face nor did he show much reactions to Xu Yunhuis tenderness.
Xu Yunhui stroked his face as her heart ached and said, I never should have let you gone to that school. Youve been there for too long. You are darker and skinnier than I remember, what had happened to you?
Xu Xing didnt say anything but slightly looked up at the banister on the third floor.
Zhong Yuhuan looked at him from the top down and gave him a cold look without hesitation.
Xu Yunhui was still going on, Why dont you switch to Murphy High School? All your dads friends kids go there. And you can get to know them and get closer with them
As she went on and on, Xu Yunhui finally noticed that Xu Xing wasnt responding to her at all.
What are you looking at? Xu Yunhui looked toward the direction that he was looking at.
When she saw Xu Yunhui on the third floor, she almost couldnt maintain her smile.
Oh, shes the same age as you but a few months older. You need to address her as jie jie, said Xu Yunhui.
Xu Xing still didnt say anything.
Xu Yunhui was finally a bit annoyed.
She didnt care much that Xu Xing wasnt responding to her, but that was before she knew that Xu Yunhui was looking at them. She could only imagine what Zhong Yuhuan was thinking about it all.
Xu Yunhui gently shoved Xu Xing toward the couch and said to him at the same time, Alright, we dont have to go check out your room right away. Here, have a seat. Lets chat for a little while.
