Chapter 1243 To Be Funny

Chapter 1243  To Be Funny

Obviously, Raelle didn't know these details at all. In fact, she knew very little about her blood-related family members. She was never interested in inquiring about them either. But now that Xiang Weimin brought up the topic and was even willing to share his feelings with her, she didn't mind being a good listener too.

"When I was young, Dad would even remind me to contact Mom more often. I never understood what he was up to. I even asked him once what he wanted. Didn't they get a divorce? Why was he still so concerned about her? But he only said, that even if they got a divorce she was still my mother. And I should never forget that. It was always difficult to understand his thoughts."

"Did you understand him now?" asked Raelle.

"Maybe. Maybe not," he answered. "I'm not saying that Mom is weak but it's a fact that she needs more love and care. It's like what you said earlier, She grew up in a complicated environment which shaped her into who she is right now. She is not a weak woman but she was made to believe all her life that she is. Dad on the other hand had always had the support of his family. And maybe that's why he wanted to always share the warmth with her even when they separated."

"Do you want them to get back together?" asked Raelle.

"No," answered Xiang Weimin. "It's not up to me. It's not my decision. If they wanted to be together for the sake of their kids, they would have done that years ago. I don't think they needed to waste so many years. Back then, it was their decision and it's still their decision. But I'm positive that they don't have such thoughts."

"Even when they love each other?"

"Love changes its form with years," said Xiang Weimin. "It doesn't always stay passionate. Eventually, it does turn into familial love. There is nothing wrong with it but it's a fact that it changes. In their case, their love also changes from rather familial to friendship. Now, they find it a lot more comfortable to just stay as each other's support. And I'm more than happy with that. At least, they aren't estranged."

"Don't children always want their parents to be together?"

"I'm not a child anymore," reminded Xiang Weimin. "If there is one person who still would have that thought, that is Wai."

"You think, Major Xiang Wai still desires for a complete family?"

"I don't think so. I know so," said Xiang Weimin. "I don't need to tell you that she is a lot more sensitive and emotional than the two of us. That makes her rather unique in our family."

"It doesn't make her weird?"

"No, I think we are the weird ones. Don't you agree?"

Raelle licked her lips and nodded her head in agreement, "Fine. I do agree with that." She took a pause and asked, "So, did you buy a new car? I heard you also wanted to change your car. What made you realize that it was time to do that?"

"Isn't it because of you?" asked Xiang Weimin. "Seeing you sitting in my old car made me realize that it was about time for me to move on. No matter how you cherish the old relationship, eventually, you have to look forward and keep pace with the rest of the world."

"We are talking about cars, right?"

"Right. Why are you asking?"

"Just confirming it," she replied. "I never got to ask you, do you think Chi Xirui really loved you?"

"That question came out of nowhere," he commented.

"Did it? It just came to my mind so I asked."

"How would I know if she really loved me or not? We had such a brief relationship that I was unable to understand what she really felt for me. Why do you think I even forgot about it? I'm not that careless in life. It's truly because the encounter was so brief that I didn't think it was important enough to remember. How would I know years later, she'll drop a bomb in my life like this?"

"Justin is a bomb?"

"That's my son!"

"Then don't use such language that could make people misunderstand."

Xiang Weimin shook his head and said, "You understand my words very well. You're just purposely finding faults now."

"Actually, that's true. I just realized how fun it is."

"It's not fun."

"But it is."

"How?"

"I am the one seeing your expression of frustration so of course, it's fun to me."

Xiang Weimin gave her a strange look, "Is it just me, or you're becoming naughty now?"

"Am I? Aren't I boring?"

want to eat? Aren't you hungry?"

"You are anything but boring," said Xiang Weimin. "What else do you want to eat? Aren't you hungry?"

"You really want to buy me a dinner?"

"YES!"

"Let's see," said Raelle.

"It's really surprising to see you here. I did not think I'd run into you here."

"What's surprising about it?"

"You came with your assistant to choose rings. You don't see anything odd about that?"

"I'm a very loyal person. Since Cloe has been with me for so long and has done so much. I don't see a reason why I can't repay her a little bit. It's just accompanying her. No big deal."

"Tsk. You're really a perfect combination of Mom and Dad."

"Oh."

"That's it?"

"What else?"

"I said you're a combination of Mom and Dad."

"I have their genes. It'd be weirder if I'm not like the two of them. Don't you think so?"

Xiang Weimin sighed, "It's me. I'm the fool."

"Really? Why didn't you say so earlier?" She took a step away from him as she asked, "Is it contagious?"

Xiang Weimin smiled at her helplessly and said, "Wow! Now, you're learning to be funny too. I can't believe it."

Raelle shrugged in response carelessly. She didn't even realize it that she had gotten way too comfortable with Xiang Weimin without her realizing it.
