Free Web NovelChapter 1075: Chapter 1075: Mr. Sheng, a Master at Sabotaging His Son (5)
Su Weiyi could see, Mr. Sheng’s anger rising further, as if he could lash out at Sheng Yanxiao at any moment.
At this moment, Miss Tang, who had been silent, walked over, her face still carrying that gentle expression: "Yanxiao, Xiao Yi, this isn’t a joke. Are you two serious?"
Compared to Mr. Sheng’s fury, Miss Tang appeared exceptionally calm. Could she not be calm? She had guessed it long ago.
And her question was much easier to answer. Sheng Yanxiao and Su Weiyi exchanged a glance, holding hands tighter, and replied in unison: "Serious."
Just as Miss Tang was about to say something humorously, her arm was suddenly pulled back by someone behind her. Mr. Sheng still wore a grim expression, his eyes sweeping over Su Weiyi before looking at Sheng Yanxiao: "You, come with me."
Su Weiyi immediately looked at Sheng Yanxiao, her eyes full of worry, but Sheng Yanxiao gave her a reassuring smile before letting go of her hand and following him up.
Su Weiyi panicked at this moment. She knew Mr. Sheng wouldn’t beat Sheng Yanxiao to death. At most, father and son would argue again. Yet, Su Weiyi was still anxious. Was the thing she feared the most about to happen?
Miss Tang furrowed her brow, as if she wanted to say something, but held back, turning to look at the worry in Su Weiyi’s eyes, she sighed softly, pulling Su Weiyi to the sofa, sitting her down. Her attitude was entirely different from Mr. Sheng’s; she gently patted Su Weiyi’s hair: "I thought I was overthinking before, didn’t expect it was true."
Su Weiyi was stunned: "You... you know?"
Miss Tang beamed: "I wouldn’t know my own daughter? When Yanxiao was hurt, you were beside yourself, a mother has loved too."
Su Weiyi’s face reddened. That day she was indeed beside herself, naturally not noticing others’ reactions. Never expected her mother had already seen through it.
Su Weiyi pursed her lips: "Mom, do you... disapprove?"
"Does disapproval help?"
Su Weiyi remained silent, lips pursed, and Miss Tang chuckled again: "Feelings are never something someone else can either make or break; what’s there for me to disapprove of? Besides, love isn’t wrong, it’s just a matter of whether I should consider my daughter becoming a daughter-in-law or my son becoming a son-in-law, that’s the real issue."
Su Weiyi’s previously anxious heart suddenly found joy in this.
Luckily, things weren’t as bad as she imagined. Though uncertain of the situation upstairs, at least her mother didn’t disapprove.
Su Weiyi’s eyes grew hot, and she threw herself into Miss Tang’s arms: "Mom, I’m sorry."
Miss Tang gently stroked her back, offering a couple of comforting words, before suddenly remembering something: "Xiao Yi, be honest with me. When you abruptly wanted to go for the exchange and wouldn’t let us tell Yanxiao beforehand, was it because of this?"
Su Weiyi nodded, admitting: "At that time, I wanted to separate from him. I knew we were wrong, I wanted to end this relationship. But... but I couldn’t do it. I thought time would change everything, but three years ago I wanted to be with him, and three years later I desperately wanted to be with him. Mom, I’m sorry."
Miss Tang sighed again, so it was. Many things she hadn’t understood before now had explanations, such as why the always obedient and well-behaved Su Weiyi suddenly wanted to go abroad, and why her own son’s personality shifted after her departure.
