CHAPTER 731 – Convincing Li An

Just as he had planned, Ye Cheng placed a call during the evening to his mother.

He had very much prepared himself for any words she was going to tell him. Knowing her, she was sure going to be stubborn.

He waited for the phone to ring and once she picked up, a soft sigh fell off his lips.

Honestly, he did not think he would be so excited to hear her voice as he did today.

After his time with Ren, he sat back to ponder on the matter. Should in case something had happened to her, how was he going to survive the hurt and regret?

.....

“Good evening mum.”

“My darling, how are you?” Li An’s cool and collected voice broke out.

“Better than before that’s for sure. You?”

“What can I say? For a woman who got a close death experience call, I think I am doing quite well.”

“I see. Mum, why don’t you come over and stay with me? I have a big mansion. Your presence here won’t be a bother. You can have any room you want. You can do whatever you wish but please, just come.”

She took a long pause, carefully contemplating her decision on the phone before saying anything out. He listened carefully to the sound of her voice, hoping to catch something from it.

Perhaps fear or the likes but anything that would give him a chance to prevent her from saying no.

“But Ye Cheng, me coming over means me putting you and Li Jing in danger. And I cannot habe that, son.”

“I know. But I would feel better knowing I can protect you two. Please.”

“Fine.”

‘Yes!” he half squealed into the phone.

“Hold your horse child. I did not agree fully. I only said yes. Yes, meaning I would consider it.”

“Okay. I would not rush you but believe me, you do not have that much time either to think about this. I need you here quicker. I plan on not letting them go and I know they would not play fair.”

“Sure. I have my ways of making them pay as well. Not to worry. You can have a good night’s sleep and be rest assured. Mother would be fine. Send my best kisses to Jing-er for me, okay?”

“Sure. Good night mum.”

“Goodnight son.”

He ended the call and leaned back again the pillow. Ever since Li JHing came back from work, he had been too occupied with so many thoughts he barely had her time.

Wanting to pass away the time that he was moody, she went downstairs.

He had not bothered with what she was doing until now that his brain seemed less of a muddled mess.

‘Hmm, I wonder what she is up to? I better go and find her and apologize lest her anger builds to something else.’

He stood up from the bed and walked towards the door.

The second his hand latched on the doorknob, he stopped in his tracks, when his nostrils sniffed in the sweet aroma that paved its way further into his room.

Shutting his eyes briefly, Ye Cheng tilted his head back to enjoy the sweet smell of strawberry coconut cake she made.

H took his fill of the aroma and was about to open his eyes when he felt the aroma grow stronger.

At the same time, Ye Cheng felt a hand snake to his back, as the warmth of a certain person filled his body, pressing her softness on him.

The sweet smell of the cake assaulted his nostrils once more.

This time he could no longer hold it in and pried his eyes open. His hand moved forward and wrapped around her body, pulling her in for a tender hug, resting his chin on her head and inhaling the sweet smell of her perfume.

“Hey, love,” he called out to her, rubbing his hand up and down the length of her back, while her hold on his back tightened.

“Hey, hon.”

“How are you?” Li Jing smiled on his chest before taking steps back to look into his eyes.

“I should be the one asking you how you are and not the other way around.”

“Silly. It is my duty. Now come, let’s go in so that I can pamper you.” Her eyes twinkled as the smile on her lips spread out to her cheeks.

“Sure.” She stepped back completely and handed him the plate of cake in her hands, smiling with a face that transcended the heavens. “Here, a cake to light up your mood.”

“How thoughtful.”

He led them both and once they got seated on their bed, he brought his lips close to hers, taking her bottom lip between his and he placed a soft kiss on her lips.

“Wow. That was tender,” Li Jing noted as soon as they broke apart and sat down separately.

“Well, you are also tender to me.”

“Thanks, and so are you. Which is why,” she heaved out deeply, before looking up to meet his questioning gaze once more. “What happened with you today? You care to tell me all about it?”

Her genuine smile as she inquired about his day made his heart leap with joy.

He had cherished her beyond words could ever bring. With Li Jing he was free to be vulnerable and only now, after all these years of living did he realize what being in love truly meant.

Just like his mother, Li Jing was his world. And as much as the one you love can be your weakness, it can be your strength.

He took the plate of cake and placed it on the bedside table at the top corner of the bed by his side.

He climbed back into bed, scooting closer to his wife as he brought her head down to rest on his shoulder. “Do you really want to know?”

“Yes.”

“You are sure?” Li Jing moved her head to stare deep into his brown eyes.

“Absolutely.”
