Chapter 133 - Li Na's Query



★★★★★★

CHAPTER 133

His eyes shot open at the caller and he quickly turned the phone back and answered the call.

"Mum." He looked perplexed by her sudden call but then again, even she must have seen the news and that was why she called.

Unlike his father's, he had least expected for this call to come.

"Hello! Mother." Without wasting time other than the ones he had wasted, Ye Cheng quickly answered the phone.

She did not respond but he could hear her breathing. "Mum, good afternoon."

"So if the mother doesn't call, the son won't?" A sweet but raspy voice rang out from the other end.

"Mother. It is not like that. I am sorry. I just got consumed with work."

"Weeks ago I called your line but you weren't answering my call, Ye Cheng. Do you hate mother so much? Michael, answer me. What do mother do wrong this time?"

Hearing his mother speak that way only made his heart clench in his chest.

He hated to make her sad and he could tell from her voice that she was very sad.

"Mum, you did nothing. Weeks ago I left my phone somewhere and traveled. It wasn't intentional not to pick your calls."

"Then why did you not call back when you returned? Michael, I was scared. My heart felt troubled and I thought I had lost you too." Her voice broke and she let out a croaked sound, trying to hold back her tears that were already falling free.

The time in which she had called was when Ye Cheng had been involved in an accident and did not have access to his phone.

She was so devastated and she knew something was not right.

There was always this feeling that tugged in her chest that made her feel uncomfortable and anytime she thought about him, her heart would hurt so bad.

That was how she knew something was wrong. She had felt this kind of feeling once but for someone else and it came true. She lost that person.

So having something similar, like a choking feeling as though she would not be able to breathe for the fear that gripped at her heart, Ye Cheng's mother, Li Na, knew all was not well.

"No. I am not going anywhere, mum. I am not dying or leaving you. I am still here. Forgive this son of yours for causing you to fret."

She took in a deep breath to calm herself down after his assurance before speaking again."Fine but make sure to call mother often from now on, okay?"

"I will mother, I promise." Ye Cheng heaved a soft sigh of relief at her words. No longer was he scared again. He knew she would be better now.

"How are you, mu?"

"I am fine now that I can hear my son's voice once more."

"Don't flatter me, mum. You would be fine if you take your meds."

"I would be fine without them if I see her."

Ye Cheng rolled his eyes at her but was so lucky she couldn't see him lest he would get the spanking (words though) of a lifetime.

"I would keep up with the search mother. For now, there is no news."

"Thank you, son."

"Any time. By the way, I see you are busy kissing girls now. Who is she?"

Ye Cheng was left speechless by how she had asked the question.

Although he had been waiting for her to voice out the words since she called and when he saw that the conversation was not getting there, he was more than happy and thought she called just to check on him.

Who knew that she had been prepping him all these while and waiting to hit the nail on the head. "Mother."

"Do not mother me, Michael." She loved calling him by his English name because she gave him that and Cheng was giving to him by his father.

"Mum."

"Not that either. Just answer the question, son. Who is she?"

"She is just a friend."

"But you stated that she was your financial manager."

For someone who was away from the country, Ye Cheng wondered how very informed his mother was. Did she not have better things doing that she had to do that?

"Don't be surprised. I am your mother and although I may not be in the country with you, I have your best interests at heart."

"I can see that. Anyways mum, it was a mistake and nothing serious. Do not think much to it."

"You call kissing a very beautiful lady a mistake huh?"

"Mother."

"How did your lips wandering on hers look like a mistake? From the looks of things, it was you who initiated the kiss. I could see her shocked expression even though the picture was not taken properly."

"Since when did you become an expert in pictures, mum?" Ye Cheng was taken aback by her discovery. True Li Jing was surprised b what he did, but even he did not see that in the picture, how come his mother did?

As they spoke, he leaned forward and picked up the newspaper to have a look at it.

"If you look closely, you would see it."

"Always keen for details," Ye Cheng muttered to himself but his mother heard him.

"Glad you did not forget that about me, son. Anyways, you still call kissing her without her permission a mistake?"

"Mother, things were not what they seem to be. Just relax."

"Oh, I am very much relaxed son but since you say nothing is going on, then I am happy. I just hope you haven't forgotten."

"No mum. I would keep my promise and find them."

"Thank you. I would leave you to tend to work. I know that man has called you to nag you. I ignore him and live your life."

"That man, mum… is your husband."

"And thus end our discussion for the day. Call me often."

"Yes, mother. Bye."

Beep-beep!!

Ye Cheng shook his head as a small smile formed on his lips as he mouthed her name. "Li Jing."
