Chapter 1314: We Will Always Be Together
“Mom!”
“Don’t call me. You can only choose one between me and Gong Yi!” After saying that, Sun Xiaoxiao went upstairs.
…
Bai Beibei dragged her tired footsteps into the room and sat by the bed in a daze.
Everything was fine yesterday. But now, the situation had taken a shocking turn. The truth fell upon her one after another and she felt dizzy. She didn’t know what to do.
At this moment, her phone rang. It was a call from him.
It was from Gong Yi.
“Hello…”Bai Beibei quickly picked up.
“Hello, Beibei.”Gong Yi’s deep and alluring voice came from the other end.
Bai Beibei felt relieved when she heard his voice. She asked, “How are things on your side?”
“My dad said that he met your mom 18 years ago.”
“Yeah, my mom said the same thing.”
“Then what else did your mom say?” Gong Yi asked tentatively.
Bai Beibei was stunned. “My mom also said… said…”
“Let me guess. Your mom also said that she applied to our gong corporation 18 years ago, and then my dad had some bad intentions toward her. He even made a few moves against her, but my dad didn’t succeed. In the end, he chased your mom out and even banned her, so your mom had no choice but to enter the Bai Family?”
“How did you know?”Bai Beibei turned pale with fright.
Gong Yi paused for a moment, then he smiled and said, “I guessed correctly?”
Bai Beibei nodded slowly. “Yes! However, I don’t think uncle is that kind of person. There must be some misunderstanding between uncle and my mom.”
“There’s no misunderstanding, Beibei. Between your mom and my father, someone’s lying.” Gong Yi said calmly.
Bai Beibei immediately became nervous. “Who’s lying?”
“I don’t know, but I can tell you what my father said. My father said that 18 years ago, your mom applied for a job at the gong corporation and used her position to seduce my father time and time again. In a fit of anger, my father banned your mom…”
“Impossible!” Bai Beibei quickly interrupted Gong Yi. “My mom isn’t that kind of person!”
Gong Yi furrowed his sharp brows and fell silent.
He had long guessed that she would have such an intense reaction. If it were anyone else, they would be as agitated as her if other people talked about their mom like that.
However, he also believed in his father. He was already certain that Sun Xiaoxiao was lying.
How should he tell her and make her accept it?
The atmosphere between the two of them quickly turned gloomy. Bai Beibei realised that she might have gone overboard. She lowered her long eyelashes and spoke timidly, “I’m sorry. Don’t be angry. I don’t have any intentions. I just don’t believe that my mom’s such a person. She suffered a lot in the past. If she really was greedy, then she wouldn’t have been raped by Bai Shida back then…”
Gong Yi felt that she was still too naive and simple.
Back then, Sun Xiaoxiao had worked quite hard in the gong family. That meant that she was a woman who pursued and had good taste. Bai Shida and his father were not on the same level at all. To put it bluntly, Bai Shida was just a man who lived off his wife while his father was a true upper-class aristocrat. He did not lack in power and character.
Perhaps Sun Xiaoxiao had truly adored his father before. She developed some improper thoughts and wanted to use her young and beautiful looks to seduce his father. Then, she would gradually become a mistress and become the wife of the main palace. Sun Xiaoxiao did not even look at Bai Shida. She was also a proud and arrogant person.
However, Gong Yi could not say these words to Bai Beibei. He was afraid that it would escalate the conflict between the two of them, and he was also afraid that she would be sad.
“Alright, let’s not talk about it anymore. Let’s talk about the details tomorrow. Tomorrow is your weekend, right?”
“Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow.”
They said “Goodbye”, but both of them did not hang up the phone —
“You…”
“You…”
Gong Yi raised his sharp eyebrows, and his handsome features were quickly covered with a layer of gentle light. “You go first.”
Bai Beibei used her fair little hands to hold onto her dress. She was very nervous and worried. “Has uncle become even more disapproving of our relationship?”
“What about your mom?”
“My mom is my mom, and I am me. She can’t break us up…” Bai Beibei’s face turned red as she spoke. Wasn’t she taking too much initiative?
Gong Yi was satisfied. He said softly, “I have the same thoughts as you. I like you. No one can break us up. We will always be together.”
Bai Beibei immediately smiled. “Yes!”
“Sleep early. Goodnight.”
“Goodnight.”
..
The next morning, Bai Beibei came out of her room. She went down the stairs and wanted to go straight to Gong Yi.
“Beibei, where are you going? Come and have breakfast first,”Sun Xiaoxiao called out in the dining room.
Bai Beibei stopped in her tracks. “Mom, I’m not eating. A friend asked me out. I need to go out.”
Bai Beibei felt a little guilty when she mentioned this.
Sun Xiaoxiao glanced at her. She didn’t need to guess to know that this friend was Gong Yi, but she didn’t say anything. She only smiled lovingly and said, “There’s no rush to go out for a date. Let’s have breakfast together. Mom will be going out soon too. I’ll send you out.”
“Mom, I don’t want to eat.”
“What’s wrong, Beibei? You don’t even have time to accompany mom for breakfast now?”
Bai Beibei, …
Hence, both mom and daughter ate breakfast together before they got into the car. The driver then started driving.
“Mom, I want to go to Mount Li,”Bai Beibei said.
The driver looked at Sun Xiaoxiao through the rearview mirror and asked for her opinion. Sun Xiaoxiao nodded at Bai Beibei, then gave the driver a look.
The driver understood.
Half an hour later, the private car stopped at the coffee shop.
It had been a long time since Bai Beibei had come to this coffee shop. She had been very happy here for a period of time, but she could not be happy now.
“Mom, I said I was going to Mount Li, not here.”
Sun Xiaoxiao’s expression did not change. “Mom has an appointment with a friend. Let’s go and meet him.”
“What friend?”
“You’ll know once you go.”
“Mom, I’m not going. I have an appointment…”
Sun Xiaoxiao did not say anything. She directly held onto Bai Beibei’s little hand and pulled her into the coffee shop.
Bai Beibei was speechless.
..
In the coffee shop.
Bai Beibei saw a familiar figure. It was Li Xiyang.
Li Xiyang was sitting by the window. When he saw them coming, he stood up like a gentleman and greeted Sun Xiaoxiao. “Hello, auntie.”
As he spoke, Li Xiyang looked at Bai Beibei. “Beibei, long time no see.”
“Xiyang, have a seat.” Sun Xiaoxiao said warmly.
“Mom, is this the friend you were mentioning?” Bai Beibei stared at Sun Xiaoxiao with wide eyes. “Mom, what do you mean?”
The smile on Sun Xiaoxiao’s face disappeared. She looked directly at Bai Beibei and said with a firm attitude, “Beibei, did you want to go on a date with Gong Yi?”? Last night, mom already made it very clear that you and Gong Yi had already broken up. You’re not allowed to contact him again in the future! Mom likes Xiyang very much. From now on, you and Xiyang should try dating.”
“Mom, what are you talking about? I’m remember telling you very clearly that I don’t like this Li Xiyang. Gong Yi and I will not break up, ever!”
