Chapter 869 A Pleasant Surprise (Part One)


    "Haha! Justin, you''re really something else!" Rain was stillughing with reckless abandon. Looking at


    Edward, who was at a loss for words, he never felt this amused and happy. Edward must be quite


    helpless and sulky after hearing his own son talking about him like that!


    "Uncle Rain, why are youughing? Am I wrong?" The little guy looked very confused. He tilted his


    head, thinking about what he said just now that could make Rainugh so merrily. Was what he said


    not right?


    "No! You are definitely right, Justin. Your daddy is bold and impudent, true. But as to his personality...


    Well, Justin, I won''t say that he has a good personality, you know? After all, have you ever seen a man


    who has no shame but has a good personality?" The smile on Rain''s face hadn''t disappeared. He


    didn''t have his own family, so only in Edward''s house could he feel the warmth of home.


    "Rain, you''re going to get your ass kicked." Edward had already felt very helpless about what Justin


    said, and was at a loss for words. Now, he let loose on Rain. He red at him sideways, eyes full of


    coldness. Rain was in for it now.


    "Damn it, Edward. Why am I the one always getting kicked? I didn''t say anything! That was all Justin!"


    Rain said, his mouth crumpled, feeling quite misrepresented. He knew he would never get the upper


    hand when facing Edward.


    "Rain, You know exactly the reason why you''re the one. So don''t ask. Just know you''re screwed." Tom


    curled his lips, and he nced at Rain with disdain. He shook his head. Why couldn''t Rain just


    understand that he was never going to win against Edward? This kind of situation happened a lot, and


    Rain just wouldn''t learn his lesson. After all, Edward was their boss. Nobody would ever have the upper


    hand over their boss. That was just the way it was.


    "Well, it couldn''t hurt to try, right? But again, why are you here, Tom? We''re all on holiday here, but you


    are a doctor. Shouldn''t you be in the hospital now? Aren''t there any patients during the holiday?" Rain


    asked curiously, but the look on his face showed a message of defiance. He was annoyed at what Tom


    said, and wasn''t going to take it lying down.


    "I''m not the only doctor at Renxin Hospital, much less the whole city. If you think that, then you''re an


    idiot. Sometimes, Rain..." The corner of Tom''s mouth twitched. In his eyes, Rain didn''t seem to be that


    slow. Why he always asked these dumb questions remained a mystery to him. He shook his head.


    "Of course not! But I think you are the backbone of the hospital. So you should be in the hospital now


    and helping others, instead ofzing around. Set a good example for your colleagues." Rainzily sat


    on the chair, leaning against the back of the chair. It seemed like his habit. Whenever he sat on


    something, he always sat like this. He was indeed azybones.


    "So you mean that as the backbone of the hospital, I shouldn''t rest at all, even on the holidays, right?


    But don''t forget what time it is now." Tom was getting angrier and angrier after hearing Rain''s words.


    What did he really want to say? He was acting all selfish right now. Well, he could easily take a day off,


    but he couldn''t stand others having a holiday too? That was just wrong.


    "It''s now 4 o''clock in the afternoon. I believe it''s still working time. Am I right?" Tom was never going to


    win when he bantered with Rain. So he was always the one being teased and mocked in their small


    group, because it was the same when he was in a friendly banter with Edward. He had never gotten


    the upper hand at all. Ever. And he wouldn''t, either.


    "Today is National Day! I deserve at least half a day to rx, okay?" Tom was almost at a loss for


    words right now. He really didn''t know what to say to Rain anymore. So he didn''t look at him either.


    Instead, he turned his head and looked back at the white chess pieces in front of him. His rival was


    Jonathan. Much to Tom''s surprise, Jonathan didn''t even say a word when they were busy bantering


    and joking around. He just silently sat there, patiently waiting for him.


    "Ha! It seems that I''m the most pathetic guy here. If I want a day off, I''ll have to ask someone and see if


    he lets me." Rain looked very unhappy, and he nced at Edward, who was sitting beside him. But


    Edward, being his normal cold self, didn''t give a damn about Rain''s state of mind. He didn''t even


    nce at Rain, not to mention reply to his words. Rain was dramatic as usual.


    "Uncle Rain, why do you think you''re pathetic? You are not! If anyone''s pathetic, it would be my daddy.


    He''s got an employee as useless as you. He must be so tired!" Justin dropped his chin onto his hands,


    and looked at Rain with innocent eyes. Rain couldn''t even believe that this little guy would insult him


    this way. And he always pulled off the innocent look when he said something particrly offensive.


    Rain was tired of his crap.


    "Son, you have pretty muchid out my life with employees like Rain. Come here, daddy wants to kiss


    you." Edward raised one of his eyebrows and looked at Rain triumphantly. Then he lowered his head


    and kissed Justin''s cute face. Anyone could tell from his pleasant look that he was quite proud of his


    little son.


    "Thank you, daddy. I want to give you a kiss too!" After saying these words, Justin stood up, leaned


    towards his father, then also gave him a solid kiss on his cheek. The two of them were being all cheesy


    towards each other. But they were also sharing augh at Rain''s expense.


    "E! Stop being gross, will you? There are still people here, okay? I just can''t stand you two!" Rain


    made a gagging sound. Though he acted like he was grossed out by their disy of affection, deep in


    his heart, he felt touched. He was happy for them, and at the same time, he had to admit that he was a


    little bit jealous too. Thinking of himself, he wondered when he would have this kind of happiness.


    "Well, you are just jealous, that''s all. It''s your own fault that you let Annie go. Now the only thing you


    can feel is regret." In Edward''s eyes, Annie was a good girl. Though at first she was a bit too restless


    for his liking, she became quite mature and calm as time went by. She was indeed quite lovely. He


    couldn''t understand why Rain was so picky about her. And look how it turned out now. Was this what


    Rain truly wanted? Definitely not! But now, there was nothing he could do but admit his own mistake


    and go on with his life.

    "What a dick! Why are you bringing up this now Edward? It''s a holiday, give me a break for once, will


    you? Thanks a lot for making me feel sad and lonely!" Rain''s face echoed the sadness inflicted by the


    cruel fact that Edward had mentioned. There was no trace of delight left on his beautiful face. It looked


    like that no matter how time passed, Annie would always be the ''sting'' in his heart that he could never


    let go.


    "It was just a friendly reminder. In case you stupidly let go of her the next time. If there is a next time. I


    still can''t understand why you did such a dumbass thing anyway. What were you thinking?" Ever since


    Edward got back together with Daisy, he put many things in perspective, and finally gained the love he


    always wanted. Now, he lived life to the fullest, and his life was wonderful. For the first time in his life,


    he felt truly happy about everything he had. So he couldn''t help but want the same happiness for his


    friends. He hoped that they all found true love and could be happy just like him.
