Chapter 11: Scum
2/4
The classical international profanity blurted out of Lin Xuan's mouth. She was somewhat shocked at Chen Xi as she could not believe that the Chen Xi in her impression would be able to do something like this.
Suddenly, she grasped the chicken bone that Nian Nian had spit out and viciously threw it onto Chen Xi. Ignoring the presence of the people around them, she then proceeded to berate him, "Why didn't I discover that you were a scum back in the University? You can even leave your wife and abandon your doctor? I really want to f*king hit you with my shoe!"
"I have a very special reason for leaving, I can't help it…" Chen Xi weakly defended himself.
"You are a f*king grown man. How can you abandon the mother and daughter with just 'I can't help it'?"
Lin Xuan was consumed with rage and when saw that there were no chicken bones left, she wanted to grab the untouched hamburger and threw it over.
But at this time, the little kiddo wept and wailed suddenly.
"Don't hit my Papa!"
The little kiddo took hold of Lin Xuan and cried.
There were at least a hundred diners in the restaurant and the commotion that has ensued instantaneously captured the attention of everyone.
Lin Xuan paused for a moment before hugging the little kiddo close to her bosom to comfort her.
"My dear be good, don't cry. Big sis won't hit your papa anymore. So don't cry, okay?"
"Big sis, don't bully papa!"
Tears flowed unceasingly down the little kiddo's cheeks as she used her small hands to continuously shake Lin Xuan, determined to stop her from bullying papa.
After being interrupted by Nian Nian, most of the anger in Lin Xuan's heart had also subsided. She then ignored Chen Xi and started to console the little kiddo.
After some time, the little kiddo had finally stopped weeping but sobs could still be heard
Seeing that, Lin Xuan speechlessly grumbled, "Ying Ying gave birth to a good daughter for you…"
Chen Xi smiled awkwardly as he reached across the table and wiped off the tears on Nian Nian's face with a napkin. He then comforted her, "Nian Nian is a good girl. Big sis did not bully papa, don't cry okay? You see, so many people are looking, they will laugh at you if you cry again."
Perhaps it was due to Chen Xi’s effective persuasion, the little kiddo started to calm down.
Almost immediately, Nian Nian glared at Lin Xuan with her slightly red and swollen big eyes. She then forcefully shoved Lin Xuan's arms away and got over to her papa's side by going under the table.
"Papa, hug!"
The little kiddo burrowed herself into papa's chest and then leaned her head onto the Chen Xi's shoulder, all without sparing Lin Xuana second glance, evidently treating her as a bad person
"Damn, so now I'm the bad guy."
Lin Xuan felt somewhat depressed as she glanced at the father and daughter, the resentment in her heart was difficult to subside.
After remaining silent for a long time, Lin Xuan then said with a depressed face, "Ying Ying is a beauty that is well above the common populace, so it is reasonable that she cannot distinguish a scum… But I have seen through innumerable amount of guys in the past, how could I not have tell that you too, are a scum?"
Chen Xi did not know how he should reply her.
Should he just tell her that he was struck by lightning which cast him into the extraterrestrial. He then lived on another planet for 500 years and finally cultivated to the top, before traversing the universe with his mortal body,only returning to Earth after countless hardships?
This is just plain madness ah…
"I can't tell you why I left, but I hope that you can believe me. My departure was really out of my control…."
Chen Xi sincerely gazed at Lin Xuan.(TN: Is that what love is?")
Lin Xuan refused to lose out to him and therefore, the two of them gazed into each other's eyes.(TN: So corny but me liek it)
After god knows how long, Lin Xuan unnaturally shift her eyes with a slight shade of red on her face. With much reluctance, she said, "Fine then. For the time being, I will believe you."
Just when Chen was about to express his gratitude, Lin Xuan raised her head and said, "How long did Ying Ying leave for?"
"3 to 4 years." Chen Xi thought for a while before replying.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan supported her chin and pondered for a while before frowning, "Several years ago, we contacted each other frequently and would update each other on our current situation. Then one day, she suddenly changed her number and I could not contact her again…"
"When was the last time you contacted her?"
"3 years ago, during Christmas… However, how cruel of her to not tell me that you two have a child " Lin Xuan said bitterly.
Upon thinking that Ying Ying had already left for a long time; He did not even know her whereabouts and there were now news of her, an immense pain tugged on his heart.
To Ying Ying, that was 5 years.
But for him, it was an entire 500 years!
***
Met in a hurry, annoyed that the affection is so thin.
In an instant, the clouds and rain disperse. 。
It teaches me how to wait and think, which pains me like slicing off flesh
The only thing I hate, is the broken promises we made before.
Lovesickness, like the ever howling and pounding rain.
Broken hearts sat on the fence.
So so far away, so difficult to pass a message.
This unhappy feeling of seeing the approaching dusk.

"Papa, you eat."
At this time, the little kiddo has already recovered from the previous upheaval. Hence, she took out a chicken nugget and pass it to Chen Xi.
"Okay."
Chen Xi managed to squeeze out a smile and after swallowing the chicken nugget with much difficulty, he glanced at Lin Xuan continued to ask, "Do you still keep in touch with other classmates? I remembered that you two were quite close to a few others in your dormitory. Do you think that anyone of them have contacted Ying Ying before?"
"I'm not sure. We still remained in contact after graduation. However, as the years go by, everyone started their own family and naturally, we seldom remain in touch anymore."
Lin Xuan shook her head as she reminisced about the past.
"Ai…"
Chen Xi sighed, unsure of what to say.
When Lin Xuan saw that his somewhat depressed appearance, she started to feel upset.
How can we exactly find a person out of this boundless sea of people?
After thinking for a while, Lin Xuan suddenly placed her palm together and said, "It is impossible for you to blindly look for her while bringing a kid along. What about this, I will organize a meeting with our close friends next week and ask if any of them happen to see Ying Ying…"
Lin Xuan pasued for a while before continuing, "Even if we did not see her, we can still notify you if we have any information regarding Ying Ying. What do you think?"
"Okay, great! Thanks in advance."
After hearing the suggestion, Chen Xi could not help but nod in excitement; agreeing that this idea was not bad.
What distressed him the most right now was that he had 0 clues.
If someone could give him a bit of clue, he could definitely find her back, even if she was at the ends of Earth!
"That's all for today then. You give me your number, I'll contact you by then."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xi's face turned into an embarrassed shade as he promised himself to buy a basic phone after lunch.
Earth is not like the Tian Xuan World, it would be extremely inconvenient without a phone.
Hence, Chen Xi could only tell her that he lost his phone by accident and asked her for her number instead.
"You can even lose a phone when bringing you child out to play?"
Lin Xuan looked at Chen Xi, speechless. She then took out a pen from her bag and wrote down her number on the napkin.
"This is it then. Call me after you buy your phone."
When Lin Xuan was about to leave, Chen Xi turned to the little kiddo and said, "Nian Nian, say bye bye to big sis."
However, the little kiddo showed a face of reluctance.
She pouted her lips and tilted her head to the side, refusing to listen to Chen Xi.
"So sorry. She is just a kid. I hope you don't mind…"
Chen Xi was very awkward.
However, Lin Xuan gave a casual wave and indifferently said, "It's fine, I'll leave now."
After that, she took her leave.
Meanwhile, Chen Xi also prepared to educate the little kiddo. She must understand that her previous behavior was not very polite.
But at this time, the little kiddo turned her head and loudly said to Lin Xuan's back, " Bye bye big sis."
Furthermore, she extended her small hands and forcefully waved goodbye.
Lin Xuan turned to look back and upon seeing her adorable appearance, she could not help but smiled sweetly and send Nian Nian a flying kiss.
"My dear is so sweet. Next time, big sis will bring you lots of delicious food. Bye bye."
