Imperfect Desires

Chapter 678 Tyrant Or Gangster?



678 Tyrant Or Gangster?

"Your wife was a..." Xiu didn't know which words to use or which words would seem appropriate right now. She was rarely tongue-tied but right now, she didn't want to say anything about the person who had already left this world, besides, she would never want to hurt Xin Zimen's feelings.

"She was a tyrant, a gangster?" Xin Zimen offered some words from his own vocabulary and seeing Xiu's twisted expression, he shook his head saying, "It's alright. I know I married a gangster. She was the most unreasonable person in this world. She always did the right things but she always chose the wrong ways to do it. Often people were left confused about whether to hate her or love her!"

Even Xiu was uncertain about this. She looked at Zhao Huan and mumbled, "You must be really upset, right? I believe a wedding day is very important for a bride and she ruined it for you."

Zhao Huan gave her a small smile and said, "I was actually really upset until she really gave me the reason why she chose that day to do it." Zhao Huan still vividly remembered the time when Wen Ai actually disclosed the reason behind that tyrannical behavior. She was so shocked that she didn't even know what to say to her.

She looked at Xin Zimen as she asked, "Be honest with me, Xiao Zi, you also didn't know she was gonna do it, right?"

Xin Zimen nodded helplessly, "No, I didn't. It was as much of a surprise to me as it was to every other person there."

"But you still didn't question her?" asked Xiu in bewilderment.

Xin Zimen shrugged his shoulders, "She asked me to hold her hand, how could I refuse that?"

Zhao Huan rolled her eyes saying, "And this is the reason that made my wedding day worst."

"Huh?"

"I was going through an arranged marriage and these two came to flaunt their love right in front of my eyes! Who wouldn't be mad at that?!"

Xin Zimen sighed, "But we didn't even do anything."

"Oh, and I thought you had a love marriage. Isn't that why you had been with your husband even after everything?" Xiu was left baffled once again.

Zhao Huan shook her head, "No. It wasn't a love marriage."

"But it didn't take long for my sister-in-law to fall in love either," added Xin Zimen.

Xiu wanted to say something when she noticed Nora's strange expressions. Her best friend looked scared for some reason. Xiu held her hand as she asked, "What's up?"

"Nothing," replied Nora in as calm a voice as she could muster right now.

Xiu eyed her strangely before urging, "Come on!"

Nora looked between the two elders before said in a flustered state, "I was just imagining how much Ah-Si's grandmother is going to resist my marriage with Ah-Si."

"But Ah-Si seems to respect his grandparents a lot," said Nora when she remembered how she had heard so much about Ah-Si's grandparents from him.

"Your sons are really peculiar," said Zhao Huan. "Wen Ai never even had a civil conversation with your mother and then there are your sons. Always running around their grandparents."

"As long as those old people don't mistreat my sons as they did with me, I don't mind my sons respecting them like elders. After all, their mother strongly advised them to always respect the elders and never let one generation's problems break the ties of the next generation."

Xiu suddenly snorted when she heard those words and said, "It's strange but I wish your wife was alive. I'd also like to know why you fell to a strange person."

"Didn't Darren also fall for a crazy person like you?" said Nora making Xiu nod her in agreement.

"That makes a lot more sense."

During all this exchange, there was someone who had been exceptionally silent for some reason. Ying was so quiet that it felt like she wasn't even there. But she had been standing right beside them all this time.

"Ying'er, why so quiet?"

Ying flinched, looked up at Xin Zimen, and said, "Zizi, I was just wondering... Why did Aunt Ai choose that specific day to marry you?" She scratched her chin thoughtfully, "She was an impulsive person but she always had a reason behind every action of hers."

"And who said that?" asked Zhao Huan.

"My mom," answered Ying. "And also my aunt Feifei. They always said that no matter how impulsive Aunt Ai was, she'd never do anything without a motive." She took a brief pause before adding, "That makes me wonder what really happened for her to act on her impulse?" She looked at Zhao Huan and further asked, "You must know. You said that Aunt Ai told you the reason. What was it?"

It wasn't every day that Ying would ask anything from Zhao Huan but still, the latter was unable to answer. "It's something I can't share with you."

Ying's eyes narrowed she said, "Now, you just got me a whole lot suspicious."

This remark earned her a smack on the back of her head from Xin Zimen. "Ying'er, it's good to be curious but don't involve yourself in this."

Ying shrugged her shoulders saying, "But I'm already very involved. She was my godmother. She grew up with my mother. That's enough for me to get involved."
