Chapter 297: Drunken Words
Gao Wen’s hair was disheveled, and her silk pajamas were crumpled up.
Ye Cheng reached out to remove the bottle of wine from his mother’s arms.
Gao Wen, who was woken up by the movent, hurriedly snatched the bottle back. She hugged it tightly in her arms and asked unhappily, “What are you doing?”
Ye Cheng was overwheld with a sense of helplessness as he kneeled on one knee and said, “Mom, stop drinking so much. Give the wine bottle. You should go and take a hot bath and have a good sleep.”
Gao Wen stared at Ye Cheng for a long ti before she said, “Oh, it’s you.”
Ye Cheng’s heart was filled with bitterness upon hearing the disappointnt in Gao Wen’s voice. He could not help but ask, “Who do you want to be?”
Gao Wen tightened her hold on the wine bottle and shifted her body before she lazily said, “I thought you’re that useless Ye He.”
Ye Cheng could not help but sigh. He moved to sit cross-legged on the ground before he calmly asked, “If you don’t love him, why did you marry him?”
Gao Wen laughed. “Why? I want to know why as well. In any case, love and marriage are two different matters. When it cos to marriage, it’s good enough to find a suitable partner to marry. At that ti, I didn’t have the right to choose and neither did he. Hence, we decided to get married. However, he promised he would stop his dalliances with other won after we get married. He wanted to give birth to a son so he could cent his position in the Ye family. I did as he wished; I gave him a son…”
Gao Wen paused and unscrewed the cap of the wine bottle before taking a huge gulp straight from the bottle. When the wine dripped down from the corner of her lips, she reached up and wiped it off. After screwing back the cap of the bottle, she hugged it again and rubbed her face against it gently.
“What happened after that?” Ye Cheng could not help but ask.
Gao Wen’s eyes were unfocused as she smiled. “After that? A leopard can’t change its spots overnight. How could he endure the loneliness and face a woman he didn’t love? Naturally, he began to have affairs. However, he promised ! He shouldn’t have broken his promise! If he could not keep his promise, then he shouldn’t have made them in the first place. If he had made it clear, I wouldn’t have made a fuss. However, since he promised , he should keep his promise!”
Ye Cheng smiled wryly. His sister was exactly like their mother. With such stubbornness, what n would like them? How deep must a man’s love be to see past such stubbornness?
Gao Wen muttered to herself, “When I caught him cheating, I’d beat those b*tches up! Since they’re shaless, I’d strip them naked and throw them on the streets. I wanted to see how they were going to face the world…” She laughed self-deprecatingly before she continued to say, “Those few years, my senses were really keen. I’d always know when he was having an affair, and I’d always be able to find those won. Those days were really great…”
Gao Wen laughed heartily before she took another swig from the wine bottle. She did not want to sober up. “Son, don’t look down on won, do you understand? Since ancient tis, many n had lost at the hands of won because they underestimated won. Your father thinks he’s smart and underestimated . He thought that since I married him and gave birth to his son, there was nothing I could do. He forced … He forced to retaliate…”
Ye Cheng naturally knew what his mother was talking about.
Ever since he was young, his understanding of won was based on his mother; won were fierce. The person he was most unwilling to ntion in front of his classmates was his mother. Although he knew his father had wronged his mother, he could not help but feel embarrassed of his mother.
