Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 175 Girlfriend

When Ying Sheng and Liam got home, they saw a woman standing in front of their apartment. The woman seemed to be in her mid forties and had on a simple floral white dress.

Her black hair was up in a low bun and had on a little make up. The energy she reverberated off her screamed elegance and sophisticated.

Ying Sheng knew the woman might have been a beauty when she was younger not like the years had done anything to her beauty.

A warm smile spilled from her mouth when she saw them exuding a warm and motherliness aura.

Though Ying Sheng had no idea who the woman was, Liam knew who she was.

His mother. He inwardly groaned. That Lucas, he swears he would murder him!

"Liam!" His mother said excitedly as she pulled Liam into a tight hug.

"Oh, I missed you. You have left me all alone in that big house. I feel lonely."

Liam hugged his mother back and smiled. He missed his mother.

"Don't be too dramatic mom, you would get wrinkles. You just saw me one month ago."

Mrs Xia playfully hit his shoulders, "Who would get wrinkles. I'm still pretty and young."

Liam shook his head at his mother. Lucas's lively energy was from their mother while he was more like his father-reserved.

When they pulled away,his mother pretended like she has now seen Ying Sheng by her son's side.

She has always wanted to meet the infamous Miss Ying who has her son smitten with her.

Ever since Lucas came to tell her, her son is living with Ying Sheng she has been dying to come here but her husband has forbidden her.

But today much to her husband's disapproval she had snuck away when he went for a business meeting. How can she let go of the opportunity to see the girl her shy son likes!

She has been dying for Liam to meet a girl he likes but her son was so shy and quiet she was afraid he would die a bachelor.

"Oh?" She arched her brows acting surprised.

"Who is this? She asked, her lips pulled into a smile.

"Mother, this is Ying Sheng my.."

"Oh my, is she your girlfriend?!" She beamed cutting Liam off.

Liam and Ying Sheng exchanged a look and Liam shook his head vigorously.

"No, mom. She isn't." Liam said a blush creeping on his face.

"There is no need to be shy, Liam. I'm your mother, you can be honest with me. How can you hide such a beautiful girl from me."

"Mother!"

Mrs. Xia ignored Liam and pulled Ying Sheng into a hug. Ying Sheng stiffened and she didn't know what to do. Before she could react,the woman pulled away but both of her hands were still holding onto the sides of her arms.

With a big smile plastered on her face she greeted Ying Sheng.

"Hy Shengsheng! I'm Liam's mother nice to meet you! You can call me Cookie."

'Shengsheng? Cookie?' Ying Sheng tried to hide the slight twitch of her mouth.

How can Liam's mother be so young and elegant?

"Oh Liam, I like this girl. Don't worry you have my approval!"

Mrs. Xia started laughing causing a confused frown to form on Ying Sheng's face.

"Dear, I'm not young. Also thank you for the compliment!"

Ying Sheng widened her eyes. Did she say that aloud?

"Yes, you did. So how did you meet Liam?"

Ying Sheng has never been so grateful to hear the sound of her phone ringing. She didn't even know what to say to this woman.

"Oh you have a call. I will wait for you to tell me your love story!"

"Mother!" Liam said frustrated as he grabbed hold of his mother's hand and dragged her away from Ying Sheng.

Ying Sheng looked at the caller ID and scrunched her face.

'What does he want?'

Contemplating for a while she answered the call.

"Ying Sheng, how are you?"

Her father's voice sounded on the other side of the phone.

"Do you want something?" She asked nonchalantly ignoring her dad's question.

Mr. Ying heaved a sigh.

"Can't I call my daughter to ask her how she is doing?"

Ying Sheng rolled her eyes and tapped her feet impatiently.

"Oh, I thought you have forgotten you have a daughter. Mr Ying. Tell me what you want, I'm busy."

"Ying…."

"I will hang up the phone. If you don't tell me what you want!"

"Let's meet. I want to tell you something."

Ying Sheng knitted her brows. What did he want to tell her?

"What? Can't you say it on the phone?" Ying Sheng asked flatly.

"No. I will wait for you at our restaurant. You know the room reserved for us. Please...come."

Ying Sheng widened her eyes. Whatever he was going to tell her must be important for him to even beg her.

Now Ying Sheng was curious. What could it be?

Ying Sheng entered the house and saw Liam whispering incoherent words with his mother.

She cleared her throat and they turned to look at her. A blush taint Liam's cheeks as he avoided her gaze.

Gosh, this was so awkward.

"I-my dad called me. He said I should meet him at Golden Tower restaurant so I have to go."

Liam stood up from the couch and strolled towards her.

"Do you want me to come with you? Are you okay?" He asked with deep concern laced in his tone.

Mrs.Xia smirked as if she was watching drama unfold in front of her. Oh, who would have thought she would see this caring side of his son one day.

Ying Sheng lips twisted into a smile.

"No. Your mom is here. You have to accompany her. I would be fine. Can I get your car keys?"

Liam nodded and walked to the center table to pick his car keys for her.

"Take care and call me if you need me."

Ying Sheng nodded.

"It was nice to meet you, Cookie."

Ying Sheng said awkwardly.

Mrs. Xia beamed and waved her hands.

"It was so nice to meet you too Shengsheng. I guess I will see you around." She smiled.

Ying Sheng nodded and walked away.
