Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 283 Stay

Su Bei was shock to say the least. She didn't expect to see Leng Shao standing in front of her house at this time of the day. His eyes were puffy which clearly shows he had been crying and his clothes were soaked.

She had so many questions but she knew better than to bombard him with it. She just allowed him to hug her until he finally pulled away from her.

Leng Shao sniffled softly as he pulled away.

"I-I I'm so sorry. I just…." Leng Shao awkwardly trailed off.

"It's okay. Come on in." Su Bei gave him a reassuring smile. She held his hand and led him to the kitchen.

Leng Shao did not protest, he quietly followed her. He sneezed out loudly.

"Bless you." Su Bei chuckled softly.

"Wait, let me prepare a hot shower for you." Without waiting for his answer, she rushed to the bathroom leaving Leng Shao alone to his thoughts.

A few minutes later, Su Bei came to find Leng Shao with his head bowed. He seemed to be in a deep thought. His shoulders were slumped like he had been abandoned by the whole world.

Leng Shao sighed deeply. None of everything that had happened made sense and he regretted with every fiber the words he said to his mother but he felt so stupefied and overwhelmed with emotions that those words just rolled of his tongue.

"Are you alright?" Su Bei asked reaching for his hand. Leng Shao allowed her to entangle her fingers with his. He looked up at her and gave her a small smile, nodding.

"Good, come let me show you the bathroom. We will talk after you're done."

Leng Shao stiffened but he nodded as he made his way to the bathroom.

Fifteen minutes later, Leng Shao walked in at the kitchen wearing the baggy clothes that SU Bei had left in the bathroom for her.

Su Bei flashed him a smile, "would you like something to drink?" She asked.

Leng Shao lowered himself down at the stool as he gazed at her.

"Tea please."

Su Bei nodded her head and found herself towards the cupboard.

"Since you have a cold, I will prepare ginger tea for you. I hope that is okay with you."

"Yeah,"

After preparing a cup of ginger tea, Su Bei moved towards him, lowering herself down onto the stool beside him handing him the cup.

"Thank you, Su Bei."

Su Bei watched as he brought the cup to his lips and took a sip before settling it down the table and wrapping his hands around it.

He never met her eyes as he stared ascendingly at his tea.

Even though Su Bei didn't want to bombard him with questions, she wanted to know what was bothering him. She wanted to help him, even though she has no idea how. She heard him sniffled again, without saying anything she stood up and retrieve a bottle of Tylenol from the cupboard, along with a glass of water.

Leng Shao muttered thank you and took the medicine. After he finished, she took the cups away and came to stand in front of him. Placing a comfortable hand on his shoulders, "Do you want to talk about it?"

Leng Shao slowly looked up from the titled floor and nodded softly.

Su Bei smiled and stretched out her hands at him. Leng Shao stared at her for a few seconds before taking her hand. Su Bei led him to her room. Her mother was sleeping and she didn't want to disturb her.

Su Bei lowered herself down onto the bed as she folded her legs under her butt. She patted a space on the bed and Leng Shao sat beside her on the bed.

Su Bei didn't push him as they both sat in silence. When she thought he wasn't going to say anything, he finally spoke.

"Remember the video that was leaked at the lunch?" Leng Shao mumbled.

Su Bei nodded as her brows knitted together.

"Well…. tonight, I found out who created that video." Leng Shao paused as he stared at his hands.

"My mother…. she was the one who created that video." Leng Shao stopped talking and Su Bei froze. She gasped and widened her eyes in shock as she let his words register in.

His mother was the one who created that video. But why? How?

"She said she did it for me. She—I and it's all my fault Su Bei. My mother had this crazy idea of helping me get Feng Mei because she couldn't bear to see me suffer. So she let people act like me and Yan Mei and recorded it. In case Wang Lu didn't come according to her plan she would send the video to him.

Leng Shao said as tears stung his eyes, "I…I can't believe I'm the reason for her pain. I have completely destroy our friendship. I-I don't think I can even face her ever again. She must probably hate me." Leng Shao blabbered out.

Without thinking, Su Bei grabbed his arms and pulled him into a hug. Tears rolled down her cheeks as he began to sob, his body racking aginst hers as he pressed his head against the nape of her neck, hugging her tighter.

"I'm sorry Leng Shao. Being betrayed by your mother must be horrible. I can't just imagine…."

Su Bei can't imagine the heart ache her friend must be going through tonight. Hopefully her husband is with her. To be betrayed by the people you trusted the most must be really awful.

"it's okay. You can let everything out." Su Bei muttered to him reassuring,

"I'm sure, Yan Mei wouldn't blame you for something you had no control over. You can talk to her and explain your side of the story to her."

Leng Shao pulled away from Su Bei and gazed at her. "Do you think she would even listen to me?"

Su Bei cupped his cheeks and smile at him, "Yes she will. Knowing Yan Mei, she would not let something like this destroy your friendship."

Leng Shao wiped his tears and gave Su Bei a smile. "Sorry about coming here. I had no where to go and no one to vent to. I should go it's getting late."

Leng Shao stood up to leave but the moment he turned, Su Bei grabbed his hand,

"Stay."
