Chapter 753 Little Angels
Hyson was enjoying his lunch all alone. No, actually he had two beauties sitting with him but his attention was grabbed by the delicious food in front of him. It can't be helped, to him, the food was more attractive than these two beauties.
Although Amiah was hesitant at first, she still ate with gusto once she saw how Hyson was enjoying the food. As for Cloe, she had no reservation at all.
"Hyson, you are eating as if you hadn't had food in days," joked Cloe.
"It's been a while since I had a meal prepared by Yanyan," he answered. "Although I ate the homemade meal yesterday, it didn't have the taste I was looking for."
"Tsk. How can you even recognize the taste?" questioned Cloe.
"I just know," he said. "I can tell you if the food is made by my mum or by Yanyan or someone else. Every person has different tastes in their hands. It's just that Yanyan's food is still the best."
"Your mum will be upset to hear that," said Cloe.
"Nah. I told you before, she already knows," answered Hyson. "By the way, it's gonna be tough work for you in the coming days."
Cloe shrugged, "It doesn't matter. I can manage. As long as someone is willing to keep Chief on the bed to rest, I'm willing to work."
"Don't worry, I don't think Xian Ge will let her move," said Hyson.
"I hope so," said Cloe.
"You should stop worrying about Ellie," Hyson told her. "She isn't that easy to break."
"I know my Chief," she said. "But I also know, she isn't unbreakable. This incident has a huge impact on her. It's just that she isn't used to expressing herself."
"The right thing to say is, she doesn't know how to express herself," Hyson sighed to himself. "But still, she is fine. I can assure you. Don't just think about her. We wouldn't want you to fall sick."
Cloe smiled warmly at him. "Even if I don't take care of myself. I know I have people now who will look out for me."
"Yes, you should keep that in mind," said Hyson.
Cloe noticed how silent Amiah was and asked, "So, Director Jade, how long are you staying?"
"For a week or so," answered Amiah.
"Thank you for coming," said Cloe.
Amiah was surprised to hear that from Cloe. "Keeping our disagreements aside, she is still my sister-in-law. As long as she is important to my brother, I can't really hate her."
"Ah, you aren't that hopeless," muttered Cloe. "That's good to know."
"Director, you should go back and rest," said Hyson. "It seems you need some time to yourself."
"How are you able to tell that I need some time to myself?" questioned Amiah.
"Because I have good eyesight!" He was really tired of telling the same thing to everyone lately.
*Ring!*
Cloe took out her phone and excused herself to walk to a side. "Kun!" she called out once she picked up the phone. freewebnovel.(c)om
"Hi, girlfriend! How are you?" asked Cui Xukun.
Cloe rolled her eyes at that, "You just dropped me at the hospital this morning. Of course, I am fine."
"You sure?" asked Cui Xukun.
"Yes," she replied.
"And are you done visiting people? Should I come to pick you up?"
"There is no need," said Cloe. "I can go back on my own."
"How is that possible?" Cui Xukun sounded pleased as he said, "Give this boyfriend the honor to pick his girlfriend up."
"Oh?" responded Cloe. "Why? Don't want to be a lawyer anymore? So, you've decided to become my personal chauffer now?"
"I don't mind," he replied. "I really don't mind. I'd love to be your personal driver. You just say the word."
"You really should stop with this nonsense," she said. "When I told you to come inside, you didn't. You just dropped me here and left. Why? Didn't want to face your first love?"
Cui Xukun turned serious, "It's not that. I felt like I won't be able to act before her. So, it's better to stay away from her. Besides, we hadn't seen each other for a decade now. We are just familiar strangers at this point. Even if she was my first love, I am not able to recognize her anymore."
"Uncle, are you talking to your girlfriend?"
Cui Xukun looked at his niece and nephew who were blinking at him, waiting for his answer and he sighed, "Yes. It's Cloe. My girlfriend."
They pulled him down making him crouch before them as they spoke into the receiver of the phone, "Sister, sister, can you come to play with us?"
"No, she can't," refused Cui Xukun even before Cloe could say anything in response.
"We aren't asking you, Uncle," said little Sammy. "Sister, or we can come to see you?"
Cloe's eyes had a gentle light as she said, "Since you want to come pick me up, just bring them with you. I think I'll feel better."
Cui Xukun was stunned before he grinned and agreed. He hung up the phone and looked at his niece and nephew. Kissing their cheeks, he said, "Aiyo! You both are really angels of my life."
Little Xena rubbed her cheek and pouted, "Uncle, you just called us devils a while ago. How can you change your words so soon?"
Cui Xukun laughed at that and rubbed their heads, "Wasn't that because you used your mother's lipstick to ruin my face? Jie is gonna kill me once she knows how I let you ruin her lipstick."
"Uncle, how about we buy mom a new one before she even knows?" suggested the little devils.
But thinking about how Cui Xukun would be able to take Cloe out with him, he was more than happy to follow these devils. "Let's do it. Both of you go and change your clothes. I'll take you to see your Sister Cloe. No, she is your aunt. Stop calling her sister. I plan to marry her!"
"Once you marry her, we'll call her aunt," said Little Xena. "For now, she is sister!"
He was truly helpless before his family's twins. But who told him to be a doting uncle?
