Mubai frowned and asked, "Xi Lin, tell me what's wrong."
"I don't like Auntie Chu," his son replied directly.-
He understood his son's thoughts immediately.
"You don't want me to marry her?"
"" The boy was silent so Mubai took that as a yes.
"Why don't you like her?" Mubai continued his line of questioning, "She has been extremely nice to you, hasn't she?"
One of the reasons Mubai agreed to the marriage was because he had seen how good Tianxin treated Xi Lin. He didn't mind who he married but if he had to marry one, he might as well find one that could be a good stepmother to Xi Lin.
Tianxin was the best candidate because his whole family approved of her and she was kind to Xi Lin.
Therefore, it came as a surprise for his son to reveal that he didn't like his fianc.
"She's nice to me because I'm your son. I'm just a tool for her to get to you."
Mubai's face dropped. "That's not a nice thing to say."
"The truth is never good on the ears!" Xi Lin said with wisdom beyond his years, "Why do you care? You've never asked for my opinion about who you should marry anyway. I'm just the extra baggage."
Xi Lin hopped off the counter and stalked off in an angry fit.
"Stand right there!" Mu Bai ordered sternly, "Xi Lin, who taught you to speak like this to your own father? Where are your manners?"
Xi Lin was already upset, being lectured only made him more morose.
He turned around obstinately, his eyes swirling with sadness and dissatisfaction.
"Nobody taught me, I have no mother to teach me, do I?"
Mubai was stunned
When he came to, Xi Lin was already gone.
