572 Chopped Into A Million Pieces

On her way to the Xin Villa, Ying had constantly been cursing herself. She was trying to avoid seeing Xin Zimen because she knew she'd give away some hints to him. He was just that kind of a person who could read her like an open book. And especially since she had never hidden anything from him, she'd seem even more suspicious. However, she couldn't just go and tell everything to Xin Zimen as well. At least not until she was certain about everything herself.

Ying's car had just swerved through the iron gates of the villa when her eyes caught sight of a figure pacing around anxiously. Ying didn't stop to look around more as she drove past that person.

Alighting from the car, she rushed over towards the entrance with a furious look.

Seeing that her expressions weren't very friendly, the maid instinctively pointed towards the back garden saying, "Master is having tea in the pavilion."

So, she came to the back garden to see Xin Zimen happily chatting with Ah-Si who seemed to be talking nonstop which was very unlike him.

"Oh, Ying Jie! What's up? You didn't even give me any details about your date."

"Let's talk about that later," said Ying to Ah-Si and sat down on the stone seat beside Xin Zimen as she looked him up and down. "What's wrong with you? How did you fall ill?"

"I'm fine," said Xin Zimen while pushing her hand away from his forehead.

"Then why didn't you go to work for these two days?" asked Ying.

Xin Zimen sighed out, "Yesterday, I did have a simple fever." Ying's eyes widened but he continued, "But today, I'm okay. It was really a very trivial matter. As for today, this son of mine kept hugging my leg and didn't let me leave for work. I couldn't refuse him."

Ah-Si grinned as if proud of his actions as he even announced, "Yes, yes. I literally held his leg to stop him."

Ying gave Ah-Si a thumbs up saying, "There are indeed some privileges of being the youngest."

Ah-Si was very happy because Ying's remark sounded like a compliment to him. "Ying Jie, there are some rose pastries I saved for you. Let me get it now."

As he ran inside the house, Ying's eyes couldn't help looking at his back as she commented, "Why do I feel like his youthful spirit is back?" Shaking her head, she added, "No, that'd be wrong since he wasn't this cheerful even in his youth."

Xin Zimen glanced at Ying's face saying, "When a man becomes a father, he starts living his youth all over again. As the child reaches different milestones of life, the parents feel like they are living through those moments all over again. It's actually a very fascinating feeling." He took a pause before adding, "And let's not forget that if the child is a girl, then the fathers would do anything to become their superheroes. I guess Ah-Si is just trying to do his best to become the best human being for his daughter."

"You're really missing Linlin, eh?"

"It's odd but right now, your feelings are written all over your face."

Xin Zimen didn't say anything to deny her words and gave his tacit reply making Ying feel like the most guilty person all over again. But even if her research led to the answer she was hoping for... What'd be the point? Because one way or another, Chen Xiu was dead already.

Ying had just opened her mouth to say something when...

"Ying'er!"

Ying hurriedly hid behind Xin Zimen's chair like a rabbit as she said, "Ah-Li, listen to me first. You can't judge a situation from one perspective. She had touched my bottom-line. So, I ended up slapping her."

Xin Zimen's brows quirked up as he tilted his head to glance at Ying, questioning, "You actually slapped Qiu Meihui?"

Ying rubbed her neck sheepishly, "I did. But..."

"I don't believe it!" Xin Zimen honestly couldn't believe this fact. He knew Ying best. He knew this girl had a lot of patience. Otherwise, she'd have long smacked some sense into Qiu Meihui's brain. But she always lived with restraint. No matter what, it wasn't that easy to make Ying act on impulse.

"I think you should believe it, dad," said Xin Xiaoli as he came up to both of them. "She really slapped Meihui."

"You can't yell at me for that," warned Ying. "She was truly in the wrong this time around."

"I'm not here to yell at you," stated Xiao Li while rubbing his forehead. "But will you tell me what really happened?"

"Didn't she tell you?" Ying widened her eyes in shock since she had expected Qiu Meihui to have exaggerated everything by now like she always did.

"Meihui didn't tell me anything. She was just crying badly. It was Liu Nuan who told me about what you did. However, I don't trust her version of the story. So, will you tell me what really happened?"

"Oh," Ying finally understood. These best friends truly knew how to stage a show. One cried pitiful tears to gather sympathy and the other complained about the grievance her best friend suffered at the hands of a brutal villain; Ying who should be chopped up into a million pieces by now to repay for such crime! Pei!

Xin Zimen shook Ying's body saying, "Stop playing the monologue in your head. Just answer it already, even I'm curious why you became so impulsive all of a sudden."

Ying shuddered at the way Xin Zimen read her mind at a glance and answered honestly, "Actually I was already very stressed about something. Then that stupid Liu Nuan said somethings that made me even angrier. The rest of the patience I had was kicked away by Meihui herself. Who told her to insult someone's feelings? I couldn't take it when she actually pulled a dead person out of its grave to condemn her feelings."

Ying pouted at Xin Zimen as she asked, "Did I do something wrong? I never spoke when it was me. But what right does she have to question someone's feelings?" She took a pause and added, "And let's be honest, she had it coming for years."

Xiao Li took a deep breath and said, "Let's have some private talk."

Ying held on to Xin Zimen's arm shaking her head like a rattle, "No! You're angry! I don't want to hear anything from you."

"Are you kidding me?! I just have something to talk with you," Xiao Li was really didn't know whether to laugh or be angry at this stubborn girl who acted like he was gonna beat her.

"Let's just talk here. Right before Zizi!"

"Dad, say something to her."

Xin Zimen shrugged his shoulders as he replied, "I was asked to never interfere between two best friends. I'll keep my distance from this."

Ying grinned happily while Xiao Li was left speechless at this biasedness of his father. His family truly was one of a kind.
