Chapter 540: Clashing

"What?" Yang Ming was confused after hearing it. Mom, what do you want to say?

"Big Ming, you tell mother the truth. Why is this embarrassing?" Mother Yang looked at Yang Ming, "If yes, then say yes; no then no. You aren't a long-winded auntie!"

"Well... then I confess, no..." Yang Ming had no choice but to say it.

"Really?" Seeing Yang Ming answering so quickly, Mother Yang didn't believe it.

"I really didn't! Can I lie to you!" Yang Ming said helplessly.

"No? Then it's a bit troublesome..." Mother Yang said as she shook her head.

"Troublesome? Mom, what are you talking about?" Yang Ming asked strangely.

"Chinese New Year's Eve, if Chen Mengyan comes to stay overnight, then it will be hard to do it. We only have two rooms. Your father and I are in one room, and you have one room, so where do I let Chen Mengyan sleep?" Mother Yang said, "If she has that relationship with you, it's okay for her to stay with you. But since you don't have it, then you two can't stay together! Otherwise, it seems that I as a mother am being deliberately unfair."

"..." As Yang Ming listened to his mother's opinion, he suddenly sweated. "Mom, you are thinking too much..."

"How is that too much? Am I not thinking for you? You say, Chen Mengyan, a girl, comes to our house, shouldn't we prepare everything nicely?" Mother Yang frowned and scolded.

"Mom... Actually, it isn't as complicated as you think. Although I haven't gone to that step with Chen Mengyan, it's still okay to stay together..." Yang Ming smiled bitterly.

"It's okay?" Mother Yang stared, "You bullsh*t. Are you trying to take this opportunity to do something?"

"Mom, am I that filthy? Then again, this is the thing between me and Mengyan. We actually... ai, how do I explain that?" Yang Ming didn't know how to explain to his mother. However, I can't say that Chen Mengyan and I have already developed to that step. It's just a matter of timing. Every time there was an incident that delayed our progress.

"Nothing to say, right?" Mother Yang looked seriously and said, "Big Ming, Mom also knows that this is the matter between the both of you, but you must respect Mengyan. If she doesn't want to, don't force it. You know that?"

"Mom, ai... I'll tell you this. I slept on a bed with Chen Mengyan more than twice. When we were in the winter camp, we already slept together. We're clear about our matters... you don't have to worry about these useless things!" Yang Ming thought for a long time and thought that he could only take the winter camp as an example.

Sure enough, after hearing Yang Ming say this, Mother Yang let go of her suspicion. "You two have already slept together at the winter camp?"

"Yeah. So, Mom, your worries aren't necessary..." Yang Ming said helplessly.

"Well, then I won't worry about it." Mother Yang shook her head and smiled, "It seems that you and Chen Mengyan had the intention already."

Finally, when he got away from parent's interrogation. Yang Ming returned to his room and sent a text message to Chen Mengyan. They agreed to meet at the business street tomorrow morning. After sending the text message, Yang Ming was thinking, Should I buy a car? If not, it's really inconvenient.

However, buying a car at the beginning of starting up a business isn't really appropriate. I can't explain it to my parents as well. Even Chen Mengyan and Xiao Qing will scold me for wasting money.

After thinking about it, he would put this matter on hold for the future.

He replied to Chen Mengyan's text message. Just as he wanted to put the phone back on the table, the phone rang.

Yang Ming glanced at the caller ID, which actually belonged to Lin Zhiyun. En, let me count. Ever since the return from Donghai, I have been busy with final exams. After that, I participated in the winter camp with Chen Mengyan. After I came back, I didn't contact Lin Zhiyun. Could this girl be missing me?

"Hello?" Yang Ming picked up the phone.

"Yang Ming... This is Lin Zhiyun." Lin Zhiyun's gentle and soft voice always made Yang Ming have a desire to protect her.

"I know. Is there anything? Or do you miss me?" Yang Ming naturally made a joke with Lin Zhiyun. The relationship between them was very inexplicable. If they were called a couple, they were not. But if they weren't, they were more intimate than a fake couple!

"Stop the nonsense..." Lin Zhiyun blushed and argued. But even she felt that this argument was useless. Yes, Lin Zhiyun was indeed missing Yang Ming. Not sure why, but since they stayed in the same room in Donghai, Yang Ming's shadow had appeared in Lin Zhiyun's mind from time to time. It just wouldn't disappear.

At first, Lin Zhiyun was overwhelmed. She knew that she shouldn't think about Yang Ming. However, at the end of the day, Lin Zhiyun couldn't stop herself from thinking that rather than worry, it was better to let it go.

"Hehe." Yang Ming didn't know that he got it right on Lin Zhiyun's thoughts. He just thought that Lin Zhiyun was shy, so he didn't consider it seriously.

"Yang Ming... my father asked me to ask you..." Lin Zhiyun hesitated and said, "Are you free tomorrow night?"

"Tomorrow evening? What happened? Is there anything?" Yang Ming's heart faintly guessed something.

"My dad said, he didn't have the time to thank you for last time. So, he asked if you're free tomorrow night. He wants to invite you to my house." Lin Zhiyun said.

"Tomorrow night..." Yang Ming said. Damn it. Isn't this clashing?

"If you don't have the time, then forget it. It's fine..." Although Lin Zhiyun was somewhat disappointed, thinking that tomorrow was Chinese New Year's Eve, Yang Ming should have plans at home.

"It's not that I'm not free." When Yang Ming heard Lin Zhiyun's slightly disappointing tone, he immediately felt reluctant. Rejecting Lin Zhiyun, Yang Ming couldn't do it. "It's just I have to eat at home tomorrow night... or else, can I come over a bit later?"

"That's good!" When Lin Zhiyun heard Yang Ming agree to it, she immediately said happily, "So we'll be waiting for you?"

"No need. I'll just go and visit you at night. You guys eat first. I have to eat... at home, too." Yang Ming had no choice but to lie.

"En... I will tell my father later. Then we will have dinner a bit later tomorrow. You may be able to catch up..." Lin Zhiyun said.

"Okay... I'll try to..." Yang Ming sighed and hung up.

He didn't expect that after his call just hung up, it rang again. Yang Ming was shocked. Is someone else trying to invite me for dinner again? Xiao Qing? Sun Jie?

However, Yang Ming glanced at the caller ID. Instead, it was a foreign number. This number had also called Yang Ming before! Yang Ming smiled slightly and picked up the phone. "Sister Ying, how come you're calling me so late?"

"Why? Can't I call without any business?" Zhao Ying pretended to be somewhat unhappy.

"That's not right. Yes, have you received your items?" Yang Ming asked quickly.

"I called to tell you about this matter. I have received the items. You can rest assured." Zhao Ying smiled.

"That's good. I have been checking it on the EMS website every day for the past two days. I was afraid that you wouldn't receive it." Yang Ming said.

"Right, Yang Ming. I have to tell you something. You have to cooperate with me at that time!" Zhao Ying suddenly lowered her voice and spoke.

"What's the matter? Sister Ying? What do you want me to cooperate with?" Yang Ming was somewhat inexplicable.

"This is the story. I told my parents that these pillows were bought by you for them!" Zhao Ying said, "If they call you to say thanks, don't expose the lie!"

"Huh?" Yang Ming didn't understand what Zhao Ying was saying, "Sister Ying, why did you say that I bought it? What does this have to do with me? Your parents don't seem to know who I am, right?"

"They didn't know it before, but now they know." Zhao Ying whispered, "This is the case. My parents always urged me to find a boyfriend. I just simply said that I have a boyfriend. These two pillows were bought by my boyfriend for them..."

"Ugh... What does this have to do with me?" When Yang Ming listened to Zhao Ying's words, he could understand in his mind, but he was still not sure.

"Where would I find a boyfriend?" Zhao Ying said, "How can you be so stupid? I'm afraid that my parents will really find a boyfriend who doesn't exist at all when they try to verify it! So, I need to tell you in advance. If they call you, you can just answer them first!"

"This works too?" Yang Ming smiled and shook his head.

"Why not? Sister will treat you to a meal after I come back!" Zhao Ying said, "Alright, my parents are coming. Let's not talk now... Remember it..."
