Chapter 250 A mother\'s pride

Leng Shao wanted so badly to make it up to Su Bei. He walked inside his room, back and forth, as he thought of ways to talk to Su Bei.

He had never felt this way before. He wanted to clear his name. He only met Su Bei recently, but Leng Shao already felt strongly for her.

He thought that if she continued having a bad image of him, he would not take it so well. That very thought made his heart start to ache.

"No," Leng Shao mumbled to himself as he ran his hand through his hair, "I should talk to her. I should tell her that it\'s not me. I should convince her so she won\'t ever leave me."

With that in thought, Leng Shao went out of his room and got his car keys. He just wore ordinary clothes as he remembered by memory where Su Bei lives.

As he was driving to her house, he could not help but speed up his drive. He wanted to talk to her immediately--he was desperate to clear up his name immediately.

Su Bei--he could not afford to lose her just because of this misunderstanding!

With that in mind, Leng Shao furrowed his brows as he felt so much determined to reach their place. The 30-minute drive from his house to Su Bei\'s residence had cut in half.

The moment he had arrived in front of Su Bei\'s house, Leng Shao came out of his car in an instant. He briskly walked towards the door and had rung the bell.

He waited for a few seconds. He was tapping his foot as he waited for someone to answer the door. His heart started racing fast as each second passed, nervous at how Su Bei would react to see him after having a conversation with him during the launch.

After a few seconds, the door opened, only to show another woman.

She had her hair tied in a bun, some tendrils of her hair at the sides of her face. She was wearing her work attire as if already preparing to leave for work.

She had some faint features of Su Bei, only slightly older. Could she be Su Bei\'s mother?

"Yes? Is there something that you need?"

Snapping himself out of his thoughts the moment he heard the woman\'s voice, Leng Shao showed her a small smile as he introduced himself, stating his business as well.

"I am sorry to have come unannounced, but the name is Leng Shao," he said, extending his hand towards her to do a handshake.

"I see," the woman said, discreetly looking up and down on the man before her.

A tall and handsome man--his beauty was beyond compare. Seeing this standing pulchritude before her, the woman could already deduce who he was and why he\'s here.

\'This might be the man Su Bei is talking about?\' she thought, the woman clearing her mouth before talking.

"Leng Shao," she said her name, giving the man a handshake. "I am Su Bei\'s mother."

"Oh!"

Leng Shao gave her a small bow, his nervousness increasing to know that he was talking to Su Bei\'s mother. He did not think of the other possibilities. Of course, Su Bei could also live with one of her family members.

Now that he\'s here, he could not possibly back away. Besides, he came here to make it up to Su Bei.

Shaking himself from his thoughts, Leng Shao gave her another smile.

"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Su," he greeted her, Su Bei\'s mother nodding in acknowledgment. "I came here to talk to Su Bei. Is she here, perhaps?" he said and asked, the woman eyeing him as Leng Shao waited for her answer.

"You came here to visit my daughter?" Mrs. Su asked, Leng Shao almost gulping to sense the tone of her voice. "Why?"

With Su Bei\'s mother already asking him what his purpose is, he could not disrespect her by not answering his question. With him remembering the purpose why he was there, his determination never swayed, allowing him to tell her mother why he came to visit.

"Su Bei and I had a misunderstanding," he said directly, not delving into too many details. "I want to make it up with her because our distance is something I would not want to tolerate."

"Oh."

Su Bei\'s mother internally smiled when she heard the man\'s determination to make up with her daughter. With him being honest about why he was here, Mrs. Su could not help but want to talk to him.

"Su Bei is inside," Mrs. Su said honestly, a light in Leng Shao\'s eyes passing through as he felt that he had now the hope to talk to Su Bei. "Come in. We shall have a short talk before I call on her."

Mrs. Su invited Leng Shao inside of their humble abode. The moment she closed the door, Leng Shao did not move an inch until Mrs. Su led them to the living room, motioning him to sit down as she sat on the single couch present in the room.

"She didn\'t leave her room yet," she said, Leng Shao slowly sitting down as he intently listened to Su Bei\'s mother. "What happened between you two, and why has she locking herself up in her room, hmm?"

Coincidentally, there was tea in front of them. Perhaps, Mrs. Su was already having her tea before she leaves home.

Mrs. Su poured a cup of tea for Leng Shao, the man graciously receiving it from the woman.

"Thank you," he said, Su Bei\'s mother nodding, then she sipped her tea.

Leng Shao could not help but feel uneasy and nervous as they sat before each other, talking about Su Bei. Leng Shao, however, mustered his courage so he could at least get some advice from Su Bei\'s mother.

"Mrs. Su, your daughter, I just met her recently, but I already feel that she is a special person," he said, Mrs. Su just looking at Leng Shao as he continued talking. "Now that we are not talking to each other, I felt uneasy, but I came here because I want to prove my innocence."

"Hmm..." Mrs. Su put down her cup of tea on the table, "And why would you want to prove your innocence? Have you cheated on my daughter?"

Leng Shao\'s eyes widened, "Oh, no, no, Mrs. Su!" Leng Shao could not help but shake his head profusely, "I would never have the audacity to do so! Even though I am still courting your daughter, I would never--"

Mrs. Su slightly giggled. Leng Shao blinked his eyes a few times as he now noticed that Su Bei\'s mother was messing with him.

"I\'m sorry, I was just teasing you a little," she said, Leng Shao feeling embarrassed as he averted his gaze away from her. "I have no idea what had happened, but if you\'re here, then I could say that you are serious about my daughter, no?"

"Yes." Leng Shao\'s answer was firm as a rock. "I came here because I want to make it up to her. Since Mrs. Su is here, I would like to ask for advice?"

"Ah..." A genuine smile appeared on the woman\'s face, "Su Bei..." she trailed off as a sweet expression appeared on her face.

"It is my daughter\'s first time liking someone, so it is understood that she is surprised and would resort to silence since she would not know what to do."

"I-I see..."

Leng Shao\'s face showed a slight hurt expression. Now knowing that it was him that Su Bei liked for the first time, he felt his heart aching to have a misunderstanding because of the video.

"Don\'t fret," Mrs. Su said, getting Leng Shao\'s complete attention. "I only advise you to be patient with my daughter," she added, Leng Shao\'s eyes focused on her mother sitting in front of him.

"You think she would forgive me, Mrs. Su?" Leng Shao asked, the woman playfully shrugging her shoulders to give him an answer.

"I know my daughter, but it is still up to her to make the decision," she said, Leng Shao heaving a small sigh as his hands turned into tight fists.

"Then I\'ll do my best to make it up to her--no matter what it takes," he said, Mrs. Su nodding in approval as he stood up, making Leng Shao stand up as well.

"Then I\'ll leave you two together then since I would be leaving for work," she said, taking a deep breath before shouting, her voice echoing in the room. "Su Bei, you have a visitor!"

"I\'m not expecting anyone!" A voice called out, her mother rolling her eyes as she did another shout.

"Leng Shao is here in the living room!"

Silence.

Then suddenly, followed by a loud sound of a door opening and fast sounds of footsteps echoing in the room. The moment Su Bei saw from the second floor that Leng Shao was in front of her mother, her eyes instantly widened to have seen him inside their house.

"L-Leng Shao? When, why, how--?"

Hearing her daughter stammer over her words, Mrs. Su started walking away, the clacking of her heels heard echoing.

"You guys talk it out, I\'ll be heading out for work."

The moment they heard the door close, Leng Shao and Su Bei realized that they were now alone in the house together.

Su Bei was still looking down on Leng Shao, as the man looked up at her with sad eyes.

"Su Bei," she said his name, sweetness etched in his voice. "Can you come down, please? I want to talk to you."

Su Bei felt her heart racing. His words echoed in the room, traveling through her ears as she felt her heartstrings being pulled like a tug-of-war.

"Okay," she agreed, running her hand through her hair as she remembered that she was wearing only a long shirt, "I need to change into some proper clothes first..."
