Chapter 578 - Angry Li An, Sad Ye Cheng

"That was how we met when Li Jing saved me from the sea," Ye Cheng informed her.

"WHAT!"

It felt as though they were compounding their issues more and more and that had only frustrated Ye Cheng.

They were trying to get her to calm down but every word that escaped their lips did nothing of that sort for them.

"Ye Cheng? You almost died? I almost lost my son because of that wench?!" In anger, Li An stood up from her seat and glared at her son. "And you chose to keep t hidden from me/"

"Mum, calm down, please."

\'No. Do not tell me to calm down. How can I be calm when all of this is happening?"

"No, it happened, and it\'s been what? A year plus, so relax, please."

"Yes, mum. We are sorry but I am sure he knew how worried you would be that was why he failed to let you know."

"Not an excuse Li Jing. You should not support him on that," Li An scolded.

"But mother."

"No buts from either of you. By the way, how come that lunatic of a woman is not sitting behind bars now, huh?"

As she said that, Li Jing turned around to look at Ye Cheng, waiting for him to do the honours and responded to his mother\'s question but even he was having a hard time with the angry Li An.

She let out an exasperated sigh before facing his mother.

"Mum, you need to calm down. He doesn\'t want to see you like this but you are not helping matters being like this."

She was about responding when her gaze fell on her son and saw how solemn he looked. He hated it when she shouted or was too worried and when he tries to calm her down, if it doesn\'t work, he would just keep quiet.

Letting out a sigh, Li An sat back down and gently reached for his hand on the table.

"Baby, you know I am not mad at you. I am just angry."

"I am alive now, aren\'t I?"

"Yes, you are."

"So no need to cry over spilt milk."

She withdrew her hand from his, her gaze sharp and piercing. "Is that what you think?" He did not answer. "Ye Cheng, answer me. Is that what you think? I could have lost you for crying out loud."

"But mum, you didn\'t and that is what matters most."

"It doesn\'t. I mean it isn\'t. She should pay for her treachery and evil. You are my only son and child. What do you think would have happened to me, Dream Star Cooperation and your father if you had died, huh?"

"I didn\'t die so please can we kill this issue mum?"

"You are too stubborn for your own good."

"Mum, please forgive him. He is very sorry for keeping you in the dark and he acted according to what he thought was best."

"Best? His best was poor especially when it came to how he handled those backstabbers. I am not impressed at all."

"This is life mum and not something to be impressed about. I let them go for old times sake."

"Do you call these kinds of friends, friends? Be it for old times sake or not. Leaving them to go scot-free is like planning your own death," Li An hollered at him.

"Look, for crying out loud why are we here today? Isn\'t it because that slime has returned? And here you are telling me for old times sake," she spat out angrily.

He was in no mood to argue with her and was even determined to leave when Li Jing left her seat and went over to where he sat and sat close to him.

Gently she placed her hand over his already clenched fist under the table and soothingly rubbed it until he released it and the tension that was building up.

"It is okay, honey. She cares that is why."

"Of course I do care. Thank God you would soon be a mother. You tell me how you would feel knowing that your only child was put in such danger. Imagine if Li Jing was not there to rescue you and some wave took you away or better still they got hold of you. Hmm."

She turned away angrily and just was trying not to think of the possibility of what might have gone wrong.

"Mum, please. Find it in your heart to forgive us. We are sorry. Ye Cheng is sorry as well." She swallowed and looked back at her husband. He really was a stubborn cat.

"Honey." She moved in close to him and whispered in his ears. "She loves you and needs your putting right now. Just try and calm her down, please. She is hurt. If I were to be the one, I would be hurt too. Please."

Slowly, he peeled his gaze from his mother and looked at Li Jing. "She knows I didn\'t want to hurt her, right?"

"She knows but now she is not sure. It is your duty to explain and make her see reasons," Li Jing responded in a low voice.

"Fine. I would plead with her."

"That is very good. Get going, mama\'s boy."

He smiled at her and when she was about to pull her head back, he quickly pecked her on the lips and stood up.

Moving to where his mother sat facing the wall, Ye Cheng blocked her view and half knelt before her. Seeing him alone, Li An attempted to turn her gaze away again when he held her hand and laid his head on her thighs.

His singular act had made her calm down and melted her angry hardened heart as she gazed lovingly at him. After a minute, he began to speak.

"I am sorry mum. I never wanted you to be angry and above all, I love you and cherish you so much. I did not want any bad thing to trouble you.. I thought I could sort it out then but I got injured and do not worry, Li Jing did a great job taking care of me and protecting me," he assured her.
