Secret Love Nest 2018

Squirrel in Charge pt1

Qing: I don't know why you have to do this?

Me: (stopped checking the list on my hand) What do you mean you don't know why I am doing this? What am I doing?

Qing: (spreading his long arms wide) This...doing this! Us...here in my parents' place to organize this get together dinner my parents arranged.

Me: What is wrong with us doing this?

Qing: It's not our job to do this.

Well...he got a point there. We don't have to do this. But the thing is...I want to do it.

Me: Your mother needed help and I volunteered, that is why we are doing this.

Qing: Why? Why did you volunteer?

Me: (losing some of my patience because of his constant questioning) Because she needed help. Didn't you hear me just say that? Mama need help and I volunteered to do this because for the love of God, I couldn't remember any situation where we asked your parents for help and they denied us. Your parents has always been supportive to us. I think it's time we do the same for them.

Qing: But not this way. This is too much.

Ugh! The man just love arguing. I swear, Qing do this, barraging me with complaints and questions, to indulge his love in debating. He is more tiring than the favor Mama asked from me.

(Dayu ah...uhm...one question. What is "this" you and Baba are arguing about? I'm afraid we cannot follow.)

Oh...right. I started this entry with Qing complaining. I just couldn't help it...Qing is annoying when he complains but I know he does it out of his concern for me.

This thing we are arguing about is a favor Qing's mother asked from us. Qing's parents are in ShangHai today for a business trip but they are scheduled to host a get together party of sort with their close friends and business associates tonight. The thing is, Baba and Mama got delayed in ShangHai because of some business that needed to be untangle before they can come back and Mama needed someone in the mauseleom...I mean their mansion to supervise the preparation for the get together party they will be hosting.

JiJi is currently in Hong Kong right now...don't ask me why. She would have been perfect for this role but she is miles away so...she cannot do it for Mama obviously.

So last night, I think out of desperation, Mama called Qing to ask a favor if we can supervise the preparation for the party Qing's parents will be hosting.

Qing was hesitant but yours truly said yes. Do I regret it? No. Did I expect this thing to be so complicated? No again. Do I regret volunteering now that I figured out this party preparation thing is complicated? Still no.

It's because like what I told Qing, I want to help his parents because I can never recall a time when Qing and I asked for their help and support, that his parents said no to us. Qing's parents had been nice to me from the moment Qing took me to their mansion to introduce me to his family. Especially my lover's mother...so I don't regret going out of my way to help Mama.

Qing: You just want to earn more brownie point from Mama.

Me: (scowling at Qing) I don't need to earn no brownie point from Mama. She already loves me. I am doing this because I want to help. Now, if you will continue to complain there and not help at all, I suggest you stay in Yao's place as well. With Kuai and Kuangnu...
