The Key

Xiu rubbed her hands together as she said, "Let's begin then..."

Xin Zimen perched his elbow at the side to support his face while he listened to her attentively.

"I'm gonna ask a question. How do you enter in a house?"

"Through the door," answered Ah-Si.

"What do you need to open the door?" 

Ah-Si's brows furrowed up as he replied, "A key."

"Exactly." Ah-Si's frown deepened but she didn't care as she went on, "Your goal right now is my sister, Nora Cartwright. Let's assume that she as the house, you're trying to get in. My uncle Jing and Clara mom are the door standing tall between you and her." She looked in the direction of Jackie who had already put down Ava and was holding her finger to take a walk around. "Meanwhile, he is the key to that door."

"Huh?" Ah-Si was dumbfounded.

Xiu placed her elbow on Xin Zimen's shoulder as she said, "Your son is very slow."

"I know," he replied plainly.
