CHAPTER 579
Li An let out a sigh but she still did not say anything.
"It was also through this whole problem I got to see through Hao Huizhing's fa?ade and subsequently found out about the ploy and knew they were responsible."
"Then you should have taken actions against them."
"I could and perhaps I should but I chose not to. I am sorry. If I did perhaps Bai Qing i would have stopped her arrant nonsense against Li Jing. So I am at fault, I agree. But I do hope that you know, I love you and my wife so much."
"I know. I know son. I love you so much too." She placed her hands on his hair and gently stroked it while using one to brush through the silky looking hair.
"I'm sorry mum. Please forgive ."
"Of course I have forgiven you, dear. Now and always but promise never to allow such nonsense repeat itself again."
"I promise."
"Look into my eyes and promise ," she commanded and so he did, raising his head from her thighs and looking at her eyes.
He could see the pain latched deep in there and knew it would have broken her down if anything bad had indeed happened to him.
"I promise you. I would not let anything happen to , Li Jing and you ever again."
"Thanks, son." She leaned down and pecked him on the forehead before sitting straight and helping him up.
"Be a good boy. Now your life does not just belong to you anymore. You have a wife to worry about and you must know you cannot leave her as a widow at an early age."
"Yes, mum. No dying. We would grow old together."
"Great and promise right now and right here before her not to leave her and to always look for ways to make your marriage work and sweet."
"I promise you two, never to leave my wife and marriage and to always make it work, no matter what cos our way."
"My love. I promise you too."
He smiled at Li Jing, throwing kisses for her in the air while he pulled his mother up and hugged her.
"Just be fine for mum, so your grandchildren can have you there for them too."
"Definitely. I wouldn't miss seeing them grow up. Tsk, Li Jing has to contend with for them. I would spoil them silly."
"Mum," Ye Cheng called out, reminding her not to spoil is kids. "Sigh, I know. I know. I won't spoil them too much but I would definitely spoil them."
"Hahaha… " Everyone burst out laughing at her joke as they proceeded to the living room to have a proper chat.
Once seated, Ye Cheng waited for everyone to feel comfortable before he brought back the most important issue on the ground. One that they had co to talk about in the first place, his new found step brother.
"Mum."
"Yes son, anything the matter?"
"Perhaps. Anyways, this is serious."
Hearing his tone changed, Li An faced him, shifting in her seat as she knew this was a serious matter and perhaps the real reason why they have co.
Funny enough, she wasn't so far from the truth.
"Ma, I recently just found out about sothing and I think it would be wise and better if I inform you of the matter so that when you hear, it won't look sohow."
"Shoot. I am all ears. Do not be scared. Your mother won't break."
"Okay. Mum, the reason for Hao Huizhong's visit yesterday was to inform father of his paternity rights."
"Excuse ?"
"Yes, mum. It turns out that Hao Huizhong is his father's illegitimate son."
"You said."
"Mother, please calm down."
"Oh, I am calm. You ant?"
He knew all she said was just a lie and a fa?ade. She wasn't kay one bit.
"Father has a son, my stepbrother. It just had to be him, Hao Huizhong."
"How could this happen?" She placed her hand on her forehead as she gazed down, shaking her head.
"I am sorry but based on level of seniority Hao Huizhong is older than by months. It would only an he cheated on you before your wedding."
"Hmm, why am I not surprised?" She looked back up and managed a pained smile. "Your father's infidelity has just caught up with him. His own son tried to ruin him and all he had worked for over the years. What a lovely karma."
"Mum, I thought you would be devastated by this news?"
"I am. It hurts that I thought he started cheating after my friend's accident but it had originally started way before then. Of course, it hurts but I cannot kill myself. Besides, we are no longer married."
"True but you still…"
"I once loved him and anything concerning him right now, just disgust . This is how he proves his loyalty to ? Hmm, and what is Hao Huizhing here for? Money? To be part of the company's shareholders?"
"I do not know mum. I got angry and walked out on them."
"Naughty, you should have stayed behind."
"I am sorry but I felt like he was insulting you each ti I saw Hao Huizhing and so I left."
"It is okay. So as of now, we do not know his main reason for coming out now right?"
"Exactly mum but I am sure it should not be far from the options you gave."
"Hmm," she scoffed, laughing a bit as her eyes darkened. "Ye Sheng just played with fire and he is going to get burnt. I agreed to his flings and our divorce while stating that on no account should any of his flings and infidelity yield forth an offspring and what do I have? He broke the contract."
"I see."
"Yes. There were terms, both from his side and mine. I did not just sign it so you could have the most shares in the company, I needed to make sure none of his illegitimate children would arise from God knows where and claim your possession."
"Hmm."
