Chapter 339: They will love you
Xi Hua walked back towards the couch where Si Xia was sitting, alternatively sipping the juice and pulling on his shirt collar.
Xi Hua sat down and spoke with a chuckle, "Meeting parents huh. It sure is stressful."
Si Xia turned and exclaimed, "Oh yeah!! You're meeting Mr. and Mrs. Zenghai too! How're you feeling?" He seemed glad to be able to think about something else.
Xi Hua replied, "I'm a bit nervous. I was scared thinking about whether they were going to like me or not. You know, both of them really dislike me ever since that incident at school."
"When you fell and Zenghai collapsed due to shock. He threw up quite a tantrum after waking up too." Si Xia spoke, looking down.
It was a painful memory for all of them, mostly because what happened a few days later. Their group almost fell apart.
Mo Kio was in a coma, Yu Chen left for London, and Huo Zenghai spent most of his time with the hospitalized Xi Hua. It was particularly difficult for Si Xia, who was suddenly left alone.
"Yeah. And they hate me because Zenghai used to always disobey them to come meet me at the hospital." Xi Hua continued with a bitter smile.
Si Xia shook his head, "I don't think they hate you. I'm sure they are struck with how you've stuck with Zenghai ever since. How much you've helped him. And let's face it, which parent would like his kid staying overnight in a hospital."
Xi Hua forced out a smile, "I hope that's the case."
Si Xia leaned towards her and wrapped one arm around Hua's shoulders, "I know that's the case." Hua finally relaxed as she also hugged Xia back.
"Hey!!!! Me too!!" Yu Chen was heard exclaiming as she hopped out on one foot out of her room, wearing a sandle in the other.
Si Xia and Xi Hua smiled and each reached out one of their hands towards Yu Chen, who beamed with joy and rushed in for a group hug.
After a few seconds, Yu Chen asked, "Why are we hugging?"
Xi Hua laughed as she let go, "Me and Xia were sympathizing with each other. The nervousness of meeting parents for the first time."
"You're going to be just fine Hua. No one can help but love you." Chen said as she stood up.
She then turned towards Xia and fixed his tie. "And you, you don't have any reason in the world to be nervous. My mom will love you if yoy just complain about how thin I have gotten and eat as much food as your stomach can take. And as for my dad.... I'm sure he'll fall in love you at first sight. I take after him after all." Chen said as she took a step back and twirled around, asking, "How do I look?"
Yu Chen was wearing a slim fit dark blue dress with a white cardigan. She had on matching sandles and her hair were pulled in a half bun, with the butterfly clips at the back of her head.
Si Xia smiled, "You look heavenly. What about me? How do I look?"
Yu Chen frowned and tilted her head. "What!? Do I look bad? Do I need to change?" Si Xia was immediately alarmed.
