Chapter 113
"Xiao Xu..." She immediately changed her address. "Mr. Su asked me if I haven’t been doing well these past years. I didn’t want to tell him. Can I tell you, Xiao Xu..."
It was really beyond him, this sounded like he was a split personality patient.
"Xiao Xu, I’ve been doing really well all these years..."
The start of her words surprised him quite a bit. He thought she just had a nightmare, cried, and begged for a hug, assuming she would tell him a sad story. He didn’t expect her to start by saying she’s been doing well.
"Xiao Xu, do I look very weak to you? Actually, I’m not! I could cook rice and noodles by myself at five years old. Last time, I told Mr. Su that I could cook noodles very well, and he didn’t believe me. Do you believe me?"
"..." If this went on, he would start to think Mr. Su and Xiao Xu were two different people. "Ahem, I believe you."
"I knew you were better than Mr. Su!"
"..." Wasn’t she the one with split personality?
"I depended on Mom for survival..." She started to tell him about her and her mom’s story.
He could imagine what it was like for a five-year-old girl and an unhealthy mother living together, but hearing it from her was full of joy. There was no complaint, no sadness, just how the little her learned to live, making a lot of funny things along the way. She seriously said, "Xiao Xu, you should be glad you met me now. I can make delicious noodles for you; if it were before, you’d have been my little guinea pig!"
"Uh... "My" what?"
