CHAPTER 464

Subconsciously he pressed on Li Jing palm, causing her to jolt a bit at the pain then looked up at him. "It is okay, you are better than him, do not listen to what she said nor take it to heart. I know you and I love you."

"Is that so? He should not listen?"

"No, mum. I never meant it that way. I mean he is…" Li An raised her hands again to cut Li Jing.

Even Ye Cheng was not liking the way his mother was repeatedly embarra.s.sing his wife in public. Apparently, he was tired of it. Be it his mother or whoever, he would not allow anyone treat the love of his life in such a manner.

"Mother, please stop this, already."

"Stop?"

"Yes. Li Jing is my wife and I would not tolerate anyone disrespecting her." He was stern in his words. He had enough already. No more.

"Ye Cheng!"

"I am sorry mother but I would not take it from anyone. No matter who it may be. She is the mistress of my house and the lady of my heart. If you love me, you would do well to treat her right."

"I never maltreated her," Li An defended.

"You may not have maltreated her now, but your words did insult her."

"Wow. How nice of you to speak in such a manner. Should I take your words for it or not? Because that was the same way you made your promise to me all those years about Sying."

"Enough, mother."

"I am sure she doesn't know about your promise and the lady who truly occupies your heart." Li An raised her chin up as she challenged her son verbally.

Even if he married Li Jing, she was still not going to give her go ahead to them. She owed it to her friend to keep the promise made.

"You do not know right?" She set her gaze upon Li Jing.

She did not hate her but she was not happy still that she stole her son's heart either.

Although Li Jing did not answer her, Li An knew that she was eager to know. She could see the curiousity etched deep in her eyes.

"Fine. Let me help you out of your misery. He promised his love and heart to someone else. And she is still out there while he…"

"I SAID ENOUGH!!"

His eyes turned dark all of a sudden, shouting his anger out at his mother. He respected her for one but he wasn't planning on standing for it that she would insult his wife and sow discord between them.

Ye Cheng's chest rose and fell with each pa.s.sing second but the intent and scary cold look in his eyes did not change. Rather hey held untold danger ready to be unleashed on anyone who dared him.

At this point, Li Jing could no longer hold it all in. She knew he loved his mother and she would not come here and lie about him. Besides, he did not really disprove all she said but oonly prevented her from talking.

That alone was a suspicious act in itself.

"The party is…" he did not get to finish his sentence as the next moment, Li Jing moved and rushed away from the place.

It was already a much too embarra.s.sing situation. She could no longer pretend about it that it wasn't affecting her.

How could this be the mother-in-law she so much looked forward to meeting?

"Li Jing!" Ye Cheng called out, with his left hand stretched out to her but she was already gone.

He brought his gaze back and they came to land on his mother. His look did not change. "You see what you have caused, mum?"

"I did not do anything. I simply said the truth. She was not strong enough to accept it."

Not even a word fell out of his lips but the look he gave her, told her of the warning that was soon to come. Without further ado, he looked at his friends and apologetically dipped his head down a bit.

They all got the message and did the same, then he took his leave, leaving his mother to his attendants as he chased his lovely wife.

~Inside their bedroom~

"Li Jing! Jing baby! My love. Please, open the door and come out." He kept on knocking on the door but Li Jing was not ready to listen to him.

"Go away."

"I can't. I cannot leave you alone. Not on our anniversary atleast. Please."

"GO."

"No. I won't leave you alone, my love. I am so sorry for what my mother said."

"No."

"Baby, love. Please. My heart, my sunshine. Please you are hurting me with your tears. Allow me to comfort you and correct the wrong my mother has caused."

"Give me a reason why I should listen to you," Li Jing voiced out after some time.

"Because I love you, Li Jing and only you. Look into my eyes and tell me. You would find your answer, my love. Please."

He too was hurting and not just her. Yes he made a promise when he was young and now, he may be regretting it.

Back then he really did like that girl but now, ever since he met Li Jing who showed him that he could love again after what occurred between him and Bai Qing Mei, he readily opened his heart to her again.

"I love you, babe. Please."

Ye Cheng turned around and leaned his back against the door. He was beat and exhausted not just physically but mentally.

CLICK!

A couple of minutes later, he heard the door click open and turned around quickly, moving away from the door.

As soon as the door opened, he gave her little s.p.a.ce to step out and once she did, he rushed at her and pulled her into his embrace.

Li Jing who was not expecting this was shocked and at a loss for words but in honest truth, she needed it.
