Chapter 27: Meeting The Mother Of The Ex-Boyfriend

Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_

Shi Guang arrived at home blazing like fire and then gulped down a few mouthfuls of ice-cold water furiously. However, she could not shrug off the sense of awkwardness and embarrassment that was gushing forth from the bottom of her heart even then.

In the past twenty-one years of her life, she had never ever been so embarrassed.

Why couldn’t she just hold her anger back in? Why did she have to question him before thinking it through properly? The moment she thought of the scene from earlier on, she wished she could just bang on the wall or find a hole to bury herself in so that she would never have to face anyone for the rest of her life.

It was all Lu Yanchen’s fault! Why did he have to stay here? He was the one who was moving in yesterday! Was it merely coincidence or what?

Should she change a place to stay at...?

But right now, it was difficult to look for a new place. Also, it might not be as cheap and convenient as here. Furthermore, she was only going to stay till summer break was over. It wasn’t going to be that much longer.

They might not bump into one another, staying one floor away. And in any case, she was going to see him during the swimming lessons anyway. There was no need to get so concerned over this issue about lodging.

As for everything that had happened today...she had to just take it as a dream then.

...

Early next morning, Shi Guang woke up one second before her alarm had even rung.

6 am...It was time for her to head to the club and train.

At ten o’clock, she received a call from an unknown number. It was Mrs. Lu, Shen Lingshuang, who had called her, inviting her for lunch.

Shi Guang’s petite astonished face was filled with traces of uneasiness.

She had wanted to look for Mrs. Lu from the start to speak with her about terminating the contract. And now that Mrs. Lu was the one who took the initiative to seek her out, she should have been happy. But for some unknown reason, she just started getting nervous inexplicably.

Meeting the mother of an ex-boyfriend. That was pretty strange, right?

In the past, this was something that she had imagined: Lu Yanchen holding onto her hands endearingly and introducing her to Shen Lingshuang, “Mother, this is my girlfriend, Shi Guang...”

Shi Guang’s lusciously long eyelashes flicked slightly.

What was she thinking about?

An image like that could never possibly ever appear any longer. Shaking her head, she suddenly felt herself getting calmer. But, when she arrived at the prearranged location, those initially relaxed emotions of hers started getting unsettled once more.

Mrs. Lu, Shen Lingshuang, had long arrived there. When Shi Guang opened the door to the private room, she stood up immediately and smiled gently, “Hi, Shi Guang.”

Shi Guang was a little lost as to how to react as her tone went stiff, “Mrs. Sh...Mrs. Lu... My greetings!”

This was different from the Mrs. Lu she had imagined. This Mrs. Lu was not as poised and elegant, nor was she as classy and flamboyant. She wore casual, relaxed clothes as that beautiful face of hers brought with it some signs of the age. Her smile was extremely endearing, and brought with it a hint of innocence.

It was really hard to imagine that a smile as such, which should belong to a young maiden, would appear on the face of Lu Yanchen’s mother.

“I’ve kept you waiting.”

“Oh, no. I’ve only just arrived.” Shen Lingshuang smiled out and extended her hand...

Shi Guang froze there and looked at the hand which Shen Lingshuang had extended to hold hers, not really able to snap out of her stupor.

They had only just met, but why was the other party acting as though they knew one another really well, even to the extent of holding her hand? Shi Guang was not really used to this.

After sitting down, Shi Guang pulled back her hand without leaving any trace.

Shen Lingshuang did not let it bother her as she reached out for the teapot to pour tea for the other. Immediately, Shi Guang rose up to receive it, “Ah, I’ll do it myself.”

“It’s alright! Just remain seated!” Shen Lingshuang held down Shi Guang and went on to continue pouring tea for herself while commenting at the same time, “I heard that you came looking for me a few days ago! It was really unfortunate, but I happened to be away visiting the father of my children! So sorry!”

Shi Guang smiled out with courtesy and graciousness while waving it off with her hand, “It’s fine, it’s fine...!”

Shen Lingshuang filled her cup full of tea again, “The moment I came back yesterday, I received a call from Manager Ma. He has told me everything.”
