72 I Only Care About Your Feelings

When she returned to her room, the phone was still ringing.

Nan Ge hesitantly took out her phone and answered the call.

After the call went through, she was in no hurry to speak.

There was the same silence on both sides. Nan Ge could still hear his shallow and chaotic breathing.

After a few seconds, a familiar voice entered her ears through the phone.

“Nan Ge.”

He suddenly called her name so seriously that Nan Ge subconsciously tightened her grip on the phone.

She pretended to be relaxed and replied, “I’m here.”

For some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

If he called her like this, he was probably really here to reprimand her…

Nan Ge sighed silently. If that was really the case, although she felt a little regretful, she would still not waver.

Because she was not in the wrong in the first place.

“Today…” Shen Yanqing raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. He had a headache. “About an hour ago, did you see my mother?”

“That’s right. We happened to bump into each other while shopping.”

Indeed.

“Didn’t you say before that your mother was overseas?”

“I just found out that she arrived in Jiang City last night.”

“Huh?” Nan Ge was stunned.

“My mother and I only contact each other once in a long time. I’ve never been too sure of her movements. I only found out this time when my cousin called.”

“Oh, I see.”

“So, did my mother say something bad to you?”

On the phone, his cousin was more tactful.

However, he roughly understood what she meant. Thinking of his mother’s personality, Nan Ge must have gotten bullied.

Nan Ge sat down on the sofa. “Do you want to hear the truth?”

“Of course.”

“Auntie actually didn’t say anything nasty. She just said that I don’t meet her standards for her future daughter-in-law. She said that her demands are your demands. She probably wants me to stay away from you.”

“Actually, it seemed more or less like a TV drama. It’s just that she didn’t throw a check at me.”

“What a pity.” After saying that, she sighed seriously.

“…”

Hearing the faint anger hidden in her joking words, Shen Yanqing took a deep breath and took a while to calm down before saying, “Allow me to apologize first.”

“Why are you apologizing to me?” Nan Ge blinked. “Oh, no. If you’re here to scold me, it makes sense for you to apologize to me first.”

“I’m not here to scold you.”

“Huh? Are you apologizing to me on behalf of your mother?”

At this point, Nan Ge felt annoyed. She took a fork, plunged it into a watermelon, and took a bite.

“Not really.” He hurriedly explained to her.

“I understand the cause of this matter. My mother was in the wrong. I don’t mean to blame you. It’s just that the situation is more complicated. I might not be able to make her apologize to you for her words for now.”

“Therefore, I’m sorry for this. I hope you can forgive me.”

Nan Ge was stunned.

“Because my mother is more domineering. Actually, she’s not deliberately targeting you. She’s like this to me and everyone in the family.”

“She has always been controlling about everything for so many years. It was also because of this that her relationship with my father slowly broke down.”

“But there’s something I want to tell you clearly. I won’t accept her thoughts and opinions.”

“Who I like and who I want to be with, whether it’s her or the others, their opinions don’t matter.”

“Nan Ge, I promise you that in the future, I won’t let anyone interfere in our lives.”

“!”

However, when he said this, Nan Ge’s pupils dilated slightly. She bit the watermelon and stood rooted to the ground.

Slowly, her dull eyes lit up.

It was not “me”, but “us”!

Before Shen Yanqing made the call, he had been feeling uneasy.

For the first time, he was anxious to contact someone, but he was afraid of a bad response.

He struggled, anticipating all the things Nan Ge might say.

The baby penguin took the first step hesitantly. She might turn around and escape quickly because of today’s episode.

When she approached him, she carefully went slowly. This time, she would probably flee without the slightest hesitation.

However, no matter what, he had to make this call.

Shen Yanqing could not run. He could not let Nan Ge endure this alone. This was like a thorn. The longer it was buried in her body, the greater the harm. Whether she accepted it or not, he needed to apologize to Nan Ge immediately and give her a reasonable explanation.

...

“Actually, ever since my parents divorced, the number of times I’ve seen my mother can be counted on one hand. Of course, we don’t contact each other often.”

“She didn’t like me as a son. Back then, Grandma really hoped that I could live with my mother, but in the end… she didn’t take me away.”

“Ever since she went overseas to settle down, we only talked to each other during some holidays.”

“However, in the past year, we’ve only spoken about four or five times. Out of which, she scolded me three times.”

“The rest of the time, we rely on emails to communicate. She rarely replies.”

“E… email?” When Nan Ge heard this, she could not help but exclaim. Although they were not in the same country and there was some time difference, would a mother and son communicate by email?

Well…

“Yes.” Shen Yanqing smiled and his tone was as gentle as ever. “When I went overseas to study, I was also in my mother’s city. We were only a half an hour’s drive apart, but she never came to see me once.”

Ever since he was young, he had never felt any maternal love.

Everything was fine before his parents divorced. After the divorce, his mother completely gave up on him.

In his memory, each time she called him all these years, she had never cared about him and had always reprimanded him.

...

She felt that it was a mistake for him to go back to Jiang City to see his sick grandmother. She felt that his interactions with his grandmother’s cousins were a mistake. She also felt that his business trip to her country was wrong.

His affection for his mother had long been wiped away by these trivial matters.

However, he had never mentioned this to anyone.

Nan Ge was the first and would be the only one.

“Therefore, she’s not a qualified mother, and we’re not familiar with each other. I respect her only because she gave me life.”

“I’m telling you this because I want you to know that I won’t let her decide my life, let alone interfere in our matters.”

At this point, Shen Yanqing exhaled heavily. At that moment, his tone carried a hint of pleading and helplessness that he did not notice.

“Nan Ge, her opinion really doesn’t matter to me.”

“What she said to you back then was not my intention and nothing’s going to change in the future.”

“Although we haven’t started yet, I still want to say that in this relationship, I only care about your feelings.”
