"What's up with Xiu and the kids of this family?" asked Ying who just came after witnessing a sweet hugging scene. And that left her in bewilderment. After all, who didn't know Xiu used to run from kids like the plague? But now, she seemed to have blend in with the kids. It really made people wonder what happened.
"What happened?" inquired Dylan.??
"They look... chummy," said Ying strangely.
Dylan laughed at her, "Ying Jie, that's old news now. Who doesn't know that whichever generation it is, they are all Xiu's fans? You should also get used to it by now."
"It's really like that?" asked Ying in surprise.
"It is," agreed Darren. "They all are trying to steal my wife."
"Oh, please, Darren!" said Nora. "You're no different than your wife. If they don't come to find Xiu, you'd come to find the kids instead."
Darren rubbed the nape of his neck sheepishly. He couldn't refute those words. He always thought he'd be annoyed because of his own son for taking the time of his wife but what he didn't know was that he was more than happy to spend time with both of them together. Also, as Xiu said to him before. The world of children is fantastical and magical, he really couldn't bring himself to hate any of it.
So, eventually, he ended up loving these kids just as much Xiu.
"Who asked you to give birth to a cute daughter?" retorted Darren.
"So now it's my fault?" asked Nora.
Darren shrugged his shoulders, "Yes, it is. You're so not cute but your daughter is."
"Ah-Si, look what he is saying," Nora complained to her husband.
"Brother-in-law, please refrain from personal attacks. Our daughter is cute because of us," said Ah-Si. "But she is lively and energetic and mischievous because of Sister Xiu," added Ah-Si. He felt a headache coming on when he recalled how his reserved daughter ended up turning into a devil. And it was all thanks to his sister and Jackie. They both spent a lot of effort to pull Ava out of her shell. And now, no one could even tell it was the same girl who didn't even bother saying her first word until she was already four.
Because now, Ava's voice would start echoing in their house from the moment she opened her eyes. And that voice would continue to ring in the house until she went back to bed. Ava just loved to talk.
"Regi, isn't Xiu planning on working again?" asked Cali to Darren.
"And who said my wife isn't working?" responded Darren. "Why do people ?ssume that she is free?"
"No, I know being a housewife is a hectic job but..."
Darren didn't let her continue as he told her, "She is also a mother. Being a mother is a full-time job. And she takes it as a full-time job."
"So, is she waiting for Rowan to start school?"
Darren shook his head, "Nope. She is already working. She is busier than you think."
He wasn't just saying it. Xiu not only played the role of a full-time mother or a housewife. She helped him with his work when he was swamped with work. She also had the RX Studios under her supervision. All of the projects under RX Studios were approved by Xiu. Just because she rarely made a visit to the office didn't mean she was just the boss in the name.
Under her management, RX Studios had made so much progress within the last three years. And Darren wasn't even surprised about it. After all, being an ex superstar, she was more than familiar with this line of work. How to achieve the best results. How to get the best resources for the artists, she knew everything like the back of her hand.
She had just hired an ?ssistant to make sure everything was taken care of while she wasn't there physically. But she'd still manage everything remotely.
Dylan patted Cali's shoulder as he told her, "Don't ask about that devil. She has way too many things to do in a day but somehow she still manages to find the time for herself. I can hardly believe she is the girl who used to love being lazy."
"She still loves being lazy though," said Darren. "Sleeping is still her most favorite hobby. That can never change. But now, she is just better at managing her time."
"Aren't you all enjoying way too much gossiping about my daughter?" asked Xin Zimen. "Let her be. What she is up to is her business. And even if she never lifts her finger again, I'm more than capable of taking care of my daughter."
"That's my dialogue," said Xin Zemin from behind.
"Who are you?" asked Xin Zimen as he looked at his elder brother.
"I'm her father!" retorted Xin Zemin.
"Huh!" Xin Zimen scoffed. "She isn't just yours."
"Why are you still as annoying as ever?" asked Xin Zemin.
"Because I have a brother as annoying as you," Xin Zimen argued back.
Xin Zemin was pleased to hear that, "At least, now you accept me as a brother."
Xin Zimen was baffled to see him pleased over such a thing. Was it really important?
But even he knew that for Xin Zemin, it was actually important. The relationship between them might have not gone back to how it was when they were young but it wasn't hostile either. Now they were pretty close to each other and could occasionally meet up to talk to each other.
"I wonder who is gonna hold the wedding ceremony first," Nora spoke out from the other. "Whether it's gonna be Ying Jie and Bohai or Cali and Dylan? Or perhaps, you both can choose the same day. It'll save me the trouble."
"You're only thinking about yourself," Ying showed her disdain for that.
"I'm thinking for everyone," said Nora. "It's not like anyone here has the leisure to gather whenever they want."
"What's the point of being your own boss when you can't even control that," sighed Dylan as he leaned back on the sofa lazily.
