章節 271: Brother-in-law

May 3, 2019. 

As early as five in the morning, Matthew Xi headed down to the kitchen to prepare Zoey a breakfast himself. However, just as he went downstairs, Zion Kwan was already there. 

Zion Kwan was just sitting on the couch, under the dim fluorescent lights with his head hung low as if he had been there all night. Trying to ignore what's up with Zoey's brother, Matthew Xi took a step towards the kitchen. 

Alas, his tracks stopped upon hearing Zion Kwan's voice. "Xi Matthew, can we have a talk?" The air enveloping the living area was nothing but gloomy. 

It just got heavier when Matthew Xi answered, "Later." And then he resumed in his strides. 

Zion Kwan wasn't surprised by the answer as if he already expected such a reply. Abruptly standing in his seat, Zion Kwan turned to face Matthew Xi's retreating back.
