CHAPTER 419
"Don\'t you think it is high time you let your parents know about your relationship with Ye Chaoxiang?"
Ning Xiaozhi sighed at the mention of her parents. Her mind took her to one of them– her dictator of a mother.
Her parents have no idea that she already has a boyfriend and was willing to even settle down with him. In fact, they just think she is being rebellious and dating here and there
But Ning Xiaozhi could not care less if what they think. She could understand if it was only her dad but her mother... Not her cup of tea.
It was because of that woman Ning Xiaozhi even left their home to City S. She was fed up with how her mother dictated and ruled over her life.
So in the guise of wanting to develop herself without her family\'s name and money, she left and had not thought of even returning. The only thing she does is call her father once every month to tell him how she was doing and that was all.
"To be honest Rennie, I don\'t want to. Talking to them means letting them see my Chaoxiang and letting them see him means going back to City Z. And I don\'t want to go back, Renxiang," Ning Xiaozhi said.
"I don\'t want to see that woman\'s controlling, arrogant, know-it-all\'s face. I don\'t want another episode of her bossy attitude towards me. Iris, you should not do this... Iris, you should wear that and make your hair into this... Iris, meet the young son of Mr this... Iris, you should stop your habit of chewing gums," she mimicked her mother.
"Iris this and Iris that... It\'s all Iris, Iris and Iris. I am sick and tired of it all."
"I understand," Bai Renxiang smiled.
"And then those disgusting sons of those annoying bastards all start calling me Iris. Like what the hell?!" Ning Xiaozhi threw her hands in the air.
"Yeah, they should respect that name," Bai Renxiang chipped in.
"They should. Like, who gave them such rightp to call me that? And then the day I put one of them in their place because of it, that bossy controller scolds me after... Iris, you should not talk to your potential suitors like that. What is wrong with them calling you such a beautiful name? If you go one like that, with this attitude none of them will like you," she acted again.
"As if I give a f*ck."
"Oh my!" Bai Renxiang gasped at her bestie cursing.
"They make me hate that name so much now which is making me hate my real name, Xiaozhi. If it is not for the fact that Xiaozhi sounds heavenly on Chaoxiang\'s lips, I would have changed my name to something else like..."
"Qing Qing?" Bai Renxiang said.
"Ye– Hell no. Something hot and nice like... Urgh! I will just ask Chaoxiang to pick one for me," Ning Xiaozhi groaned.
"But you said Xiaozhi sounds heavenly when he says it. What if he says he likes Xiaozhi and nothing else? Or better still, what if Iris sounds even more divine when he says?" Bai Renxiang winked at her and giggled.
"Tsk. Look at you giggling like you are me," Ning Xiaozhi clicked her tongue.
"My God, Xiaozhi. That name is very beautiful and I like it with you. I would have been calling you that too if you had let me. You should not hate the name because people you don\'t like call you that. Have mercy on that sweet sweet name," Bai Renxiang said.
"No... If anyone calls me that it only makes me feel like I am still in the cage I so dearly want to escape from. It makes me feel like I am still being controlled, you get it right?" Ning Xiaozhi\'s voice had started to sound like she was in distress.
"Hey, hey... Calm down, darling," Bai Renxiang helped her to sit on one of the kitchen stools. "You are not in a cage and you are not being controlled. Look... Ye Chaoxiang is your boyfriend and that is a decision you made by yourself. Your mo–"
Bai Renxiang caused in her speech when she saw the glare Ning Xiaozhi shot her because she almost said the mother. She sighed and shook her head.
"The bossy controller did not choose him for you or did she?" She changed the way she referred to the woman in question.
"Of course, not. No one chose for me. I chose Chaoxiang because I want him and I love him. She can\'t change that. I won\'t let her," Ning Xiaozhi frowned.
"That\'s it, girl. Can\'t you see that you have already taken full control of how you want to live?"
"Yes... Sigh, you are right. I own me. No one does... Well, no one except Chaoxiang," Ning Xiaozhi blurted out.
Bai Renxiang shook her head. And yet Ning Xiaozhi says she is the one who is totally crushing and heads over heels in love with her Mr Right.
"I don\'t want to go back to being told how to do my things and live my life, Renxiang," Ning Xiaozhi hugged Bai Renxiang\'s waist.
"You won\'t." She rubbed get back. "I\'m sorry. I should not have brought this whole thing up."
"No... It\'s good you brought it up. I haven\'t told you this before and I feel better that I just did."
"Okay. Now, why don\'t we forget about this whole thing? In fact, go and take your phone and call Chaoxiang right now."
"Why? We talked before I called you earlier," Ning Xiaozhi pulled away from the hug.
"Well, you need to call him again because you need to calm down. Trust me, our Mr Right are our calming pills," Bai Renxiang assured her.
"Hehehe... You are getting more and more mature, baby girl," Ning Xiaozhi chuckled.
"Well, I have a mature best friend. What do you expect?"
"My bad. I am rubbing off on you which is great."
"Don\'t get too cocky now... Go and make that call."
