What’s the Next Step?_3 Her voice even trembled as she said, “Mom…”
“You just left school and didn’t tell ?
Also, who is this guy?
Are you dating him secretly behind my back?!” Li Ya interrogated.
Seeing the situation, Gao Jun imdiately cleared his thoughts.
So he explained, “Auntie, hello, I’m not Weiwei’s boyfriend.
I’m just a friend of hers.”
“Who are you calling auntie?!” Li Ya turned to Gao Jun, “Tell , how exactly do you know my daughter?”
Her intimidating deanor not only scared Ye Xiaowei, but Gao Jun felt the pressure as well.
He also instantly understood why Ye Xiaowei was usually so reticent.
It turned out she had a domineering mom.
Ye Xiaowei, worried her mom might hurt Gao Jun, stood up, her eyes red, and explained, “Mom…
he’s not my boyfriend.
I’m not dating anyone.
He’s just a friend who has helped before, so I…
I just invited him for a al.”
“Did you just go to see a movie?” Li Ya asked again.
Ye Xiaowei hesitated, then looking into Li Ya’s eyes, she didn’t dare to lie and only nodded in acknowledgnt.
“Inviting him for a al because he helped, and then watching a movie?
Are you kidding ?
Ye Xiaowei!” Li Ya didn’t care anymore about being in a public place and lashed out angrily.
At this point, the restaurant manager quickly ca over to diate, “Excuse , ma’am, we don’t allow loud disputes here.
Could you please take your conversation outside?”
Li Ya first glared at the manager, then turned to Ye Xiaowei, “Co out with !”
By then, Ye Xiaowei looked like a terrified lamb, absolutely frightened.
She understood all too well the consequences of this situation.
Gao Jun too saw the power dynamics between mother and daughter, which was not at all equal parental relationship.
It was more like a ruler and a subject.
If he had known about this situation before, Gao Jun might have thought it best to stay out of it.
But now that he was here, and Ye Xiaowei was being scolded because of him,
he felt naturally obliged to help.
So he too followed them out.
Outside the restaurant, Li Ya stood with her hands on her hips, eyes burning with anger as she stared at Ye Xiaowei and demanded, “What are you really up to?
Ye Xiaowei!
Answer , is this guy your boyfriend?
Is he your classmate?”
Ye Xiaowei shook her head, “No, he’s not my boyfriend, he’s not my classmate.”
“Still not admitting it, huh?” Li Ya raised her hand, ready to strike.
Ye Xiaowei closed her eyes, shaking all over.
Just then, Gao Jun firmly grabbed Li Ya’s wrist.
He calmly said, “Mom of Xiaowei, right?
Hitting soone in public is against the law.
If you don’t mind, I can call 110.”
“How is teaching my child any of your business?” Li Ya retorted, “I was thinking of calling the police myself!
Did you seduce my daughter into dating you?!”
“First of all, your daughter is in college, 18 years old; she has the right to date freely.
Even if she found a boyfriend now and they were together, you have no right to interfere.”
Gao Jun fired back, “Second, in the presence of so many people, you disregard your daughter’s dignity, openly criticize her under the pretense of doing it for her good.
But do you think your way of teaching is really effective?”
“Finally, although I’m not her boyfriend, perhaps I could beco her boyfriend.
Whether or not I beco her boyfriend isn’t up to you to decide, but whether she herself wants to.”
Li Ya never imagined Gao Jun would speak so much in one breath, considering she’s a company boss and a mother who normally only did the scolding, never being scolded by others.
But today, she got a taste of her own dicine!
She was furious, directly asking Gao Jun, “Whether she can date and who she can date is only for to decide.
If she doesn’t listen to , who will pay her college and living expenses for the next four years?”
Gao Jun calmly replied, “She’s already 18 years old.
If you refuse to provide for her college and living expenses, she can completely apply for a student loan and earn her living expenses by working part-ti.”
Then he turned to Ye Xiaowei, “By the way, Xiaowei, you know about my hotpot restaurant.
If you want to work part-ti, you can co work at my place.”
“So, you’re a dropout and now you think you can take care of my daughter?
My daughter is at Modu Jiaotong University!” Li Ya, perhaps worried that her harsh tone might provoke Ye Xiaowei’s rebelliousness, then offered her a deal, “Weiwei, I’ll give you one chance.
If you stop contacting him, I’ll let today’s incident slide.”
Hearing this, Ye Xiaowei hesitated.
Seeing this, Gao Jun also guessed what she would decide.
After all, the bond with her mother was definitely stronger than her own persuasion.
However, what he hadn’t expected was that Ye Xiaowei bravely expressed her thoughts for the first ti, “Mom, I respect you, but that doesn’t an I have to agree with your views.
I have my own friends, my own ti, and I don’t want to report everything I do to you.”
“I will study hard, but I also hope that you can respect , respect my friends, and give so private ti, okay?”
Upon hearing this, Li Ya was dumbfounded.
She had never imagined that Ye Xiaowei would say such a thing.
It was like her ticulously cultivated sapling of over ten years had, in one day, been stuck in cow dung by so reckless youngster.
Li Ya imdiately embraced Ye Xiaowei, frantically saying, “Then how do you know they are not bad people?
You’re so naive, so pure, Mom won’t allow you to be tainted or hurt.
Listen to Mom, this guy definitely has bad intentions.
If you just stop contacting him, can Mom give you an extra half-hour of free ti every day?”
“Mom!”
Ye Xiaowei cried, “I’m really fed up with your tornt!
Please stop asking !
Okay?!”
Then, she broke free from Li Ya’s embrace and turned to run away.
When Li Ya heard these hysterical words from Ye Xiaowei, she stood frozen in place, her beliefs instantly crumbling.
Gao Jun, seeing this, also imdiately followed her to prevent Ye Xiaowei from doing anything rash.
After running for a long while, Ye Xiaowei, sobbing and gasping, crouched on the ground.
Gao Jun ca to her side, comforting, “Let take you back to the university.”
Ye Xiaowei nodded and followed him to the car.
Perhaps because of the privacy of the car’s space, Ye Xiaowei cried even more violently than before.
She cried and said, “From childhood to now, I’ve had to live within her schedule every day.”
“365 days a year, I have to wake up at six o’clock.”
“Even on weekends it’s the sa…
I must finish my howork in the morning, revise in the afternoon, and go for English lessons in the evening.”
“I’m so tired…
I’m really so tired…
None of my ti belongs to .”
Ye Xiaowei, looking at Gao Jun with tears in her eyes, said, “You asked before if I had any hobbies.”
“I didn’t dare to have any because my ti wasn’t controlled by .”
“But starting from today, I want to change.”
“I want to do what I want to do.”
“I want to date, I want to paint, I want to watch the sunrise and sunset, I want to sleep in…”
“I don’t want to live within mom’s scheduled titable anymore.”
“I think I was really in pain before…”
Gao Jun, listening to her, understood that beneath this gentle and beautiful face, there was such a sorrowful story.
Thus, he comforted, “You are already 18 years old, you can have your own thoughts.
If your mom uses living expenses and tuition to bind you in the future, you can co work part-ti at my place.”
After saying this, he passed her a tissue.
Ye Xiaowei, listening to him, nodded, “Thank you…
Thank you, Jun.”
Then, thinking of sothing, she hesitated for a mont, and resolutely asked, “Jun, you just said…
a kiss can make one forget worries, right?”
Gao Jun, surprised, responded, “What are you going to do?”
Ye Xiaowei didn’t speak, just blushed and gazed at him with that pitiful look.
Of course, it was possible to see that her eyes held more resolve.
Because from now on,
the obedient and submissive Ye Xiaowei no longer existed.
Seeing her decision, Gao Jun supported her head with one hand, then leaned down and kissed her.
