Seeing that she couldn't get away with it without saying something, she lied and said, "Gu also misunderstood that I had something going on with my colleague. I explained, but he wouldn't listen, so I brought up his past affairs with me. That's all..."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jing asked, "How could he misunderstand that you and your colleague have something going on?"
Yu Sheng continued, forcing herself to speak, "I sprained my ankle, and my colleague carried me to the hospital. He saw me there."
Yu Jing immediately adopted a lecturing tone and said, "That's because you don't know your place. There's a difference between men and women. How could you let him hug you? Your colleague doesn't know his place either."
“I was in so much pain that I couldn’t walk, and he wouldn’t carry me. So what do you suggest I do?” Yu Sheng argued.
Just as Yu Jing was about to speak, Gu Ye came over with a glass of juice, placed it in front of her, and said, "Mom, it's evening, so I didn't make you coffee or tea. I made you a glass of juice instead."
Gu Ye's thoughtfulness pleased Yu Jing. She glanced at the juice in front of her and said to him, "Thank you for your kindness."
"This is what I should do as a son-in-law."
As Gu Yechong replied to Yu Jing, he also took the opportunity to grab Yu Sheng's hand.
Yu Sheng struggled a few times in resistance, but couldn't break free.
Yu Jing naturally noticed their subtle interaction. She took a sip of juice and looked at Gu Ye, saying, "Gu Ye, you just asked me why I came here. I said I was just passing by, but that was a lie."
Gu Ye feigned suspicion and asked, "So you've come here to..."
“Ayan called me and said he heard you two arguing. I was worried, so I came over to check on you.”
Even though Gu had already guessed that it was Shang Yan who called, a fierce glint still flashed in his eyes when he heard Yu Jing say this. He pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Mom, Sheng Sheng and I didn't quarrel, we just had a few words..."
Yu Jing naturally couldn't criticize Gu Ye the way she criticized Yu Sheng, and said in a gentle tone, "I just talked to Yu Sheng, and she told me why you were arguing."
Gu Ye glanced at Yu Sheng with surprise, then looked at Yu Jing and asked, "What did she say?"
When Yu Jing told Gu Ye the lie that Yu Sheng had just made up, Gu Ye secretly chuckled to himself.
He said that Yu Sheng would never tell Yu Jing the real reason for their argument; it turned out to be a fabrication.
"Lai Shengsheng and her colleague really didn't know how to behave properly in this matter."
After reprimanding Yu Sheng, Yu Jing changed the subject: "But Gu Ye, Sheng Sheng is my daughter, and I know her personality. There is absolutely no way she could have anything with that colleague of hers."
Seeing how decisive Yu Jing was, Gu Ye sneered inwardly: You say that because you didn't see your daughter kissing someone else. If you had seen it, you wouldn't say that!
Gu didn't voice his true feelings because he didn't want to escalate the situation.
Being cheated on by one's wife is a shameful thing, so naturally the fewer people who know about it, the better.
Gu Ye immediately said in a dignified yet sincere manner, "Mom, since you're here, I'll apologize to Sheng Sheng in front of you..."
He held Yu Sheng's hands, looked at her, and said apologetically, "Sheng Sheng, I'm sorry, I acted impulsively today... Because I care about you so much, I misunderstood you when I saw you being held in another man's arms... Please forgive me."
Gu Ye spoke sincerely, and for a moment, Yu Sheng thought he was really apologizing.
Seeing that Yu Sheng wasn't speaking and was instead lost in thought, Yu Jing nudged her, "Say something..."
Yu Sheng didn't say anything, only gave a soft "hmm".
Seeing that the misunderstanding between the two had been cleared up, Yu Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Seeing you two doing well, my trip wasn't in vain... Alright, it's getting late, you should get some rest too..."
When Yu Sheng saw that Yu Jing was about to leave, he became anxious, stood up, grabbed her arm tightly and said, "Mom, it's late, why don't you stay here with us for the night!"
"If I stay, wouldn't I be a third wheel?" Yu Jing joked. "The driver is waiting outside, so don't worry about it."
Gu Ye naturally didn't want Yu Jing to stay, so he said politely, "Sheng Sheng and I originally wanted you to stay here for the night, but since you insist on leaving, I won't force you... I'll see you off..."
Yu Jing gave Yu Sheng a look that suggested she was on good terms with Gu Ye, then turned and left.
But before she could take a step, Yu Sheng, gripping her arm tightly, said anxiously, "Mom, can you stay tonight? I want to sleep with you!"
Yu Sheng's request surprised Yu Jing.
Their mother-daughter relationship wasn't particularly close, so her sudden suggestion to sleep with her was clearly suspicious.
Yu Jing didn't ask directly in front of Gu Ye, but smiled calmly and said, "How old are you, kid? Why do you still want to sleep with me?"
I want to talk to you.
While giving Yu Jing a meaningful look, Yu Sheng tightened his grip on her arm.
Yu Jing didn't know why Yu Sheng had asked her to stay.
But Gu also knew!
Yu Sheng's actions made him very angry!
He clenched his fists, which were hanging at his sides, and looked at Yu Sheng with a somewhat humble posture: "Sheng Sheng, you're not still angry with me, are you?"
Yu Jing, who was wondering why Yu Sheng had asked her to stay, asked Yu Sheng after hearing Gu Ye's words, "Are you still angry with Gu Ye?"
Yu Sheng didn't know why Gu Ye was asking this suddenly. Her intuition told her it was a trap, so she hesitated before saying, "Nothing..."
"I thought you were still angry with me and didn't want to sleep with me tonight, so I asked Mom to stay!"
Yu Jing didn't understand why Yu Sheng wanted her to stay, but after hearing Gu Ye's explanation, she immediately understood.
That's right, Yu Sheng is definitely still angry, otherwise why would she say something like wanting to sleep with her?
Yu Jing, of course, wouldn't be so tactless as to stay and be a third wheel. She said in a stern tone, "Gu Ye has already apologized to you, so stop being so temperamental and behave yourself..."
Yu Sheng looked horrified when she heard Yu Jing say that. Before she could think of anything to say to stop Yu Jing from leaving, Yu Jing had already removed her hand from her arm.
She watched Yu Jing walk towards the entrance, then limped after her, calling out, "Mom...Mom..."
Yu Jing's steps did not stop at all because of Yu Sheng's calls; she didn't even turn around.
Yu Sheng knew that once Yu Jing stepped out of that door, she would truly be left helpless and desperate tonight.
Yu Sheng was so anxious she was almost in tears. In desperation, she grabbed the half-empty glass of juice on the table and smashed it hard on the ground—Bang!
