CEO Vengeful Wife
Chapter 120 - Sweet Mother is the real Devil
A deafening silence followed. Everyone stopped their breaths. It seemed like even the birds outside were holding in their chirps so intense was the silence. In the impending fear of damnation, Jing Lihua felt as if Li Zhiqiang and Li Xun shuddered, ever so slightly in every attempt not to make a sound and draw the real 'Devil's attention towards them.
'What's happening?' Jing Lihua was utterly confused. It felt like some monster was about to land right there. Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion and she looked in Madame Bao's direction. All the dark aura appeared to be emitting from her. Her face was expressionless yet somehow scary.
"Xiao Jing, oh my sweet Xiao Jing." Madame Bao smiled sweetly. But something was off about that smile. You couldn't put a finger on it but something was definitely missing. And that was frightening.
It felt like a dead person voice calling to Jing Lihua from the netherworld as Madame Bao asked in her same sweet voice. "Tell me you are joking." She was very calm and it unsettled Jing Lihua. The Madame Bao she knew, shouldn't be this calm.
Calm is only the indication of an impending storm.
Being careful, Jing Lihua sneaked a glance at Li Zhiqiang in hope for some guidance. She was shocked to see his terrified face. Li Zhiqiang's eyes screamed at her and he desperately mouthed out the words. 'Don't admit it!' Still not daring to make a sound like his life depended on it.
Jing Lihua didn't know whether to laugh or to cry.
To see such reactions from the Devil she wanted to laugh but looking at Madame Bao's face, she wanted to cry.
'Is it that serious? What would happen if I admit it?' Jing Lihua felt bizarre. Such a weird family, this Li family was. What was wrong with them?! Why did they have to go yandere on little things?!
"Of course, Mother, I was joking. Isn't it obvious I was joking? Me and married? Who would even marry me? Wasn't it such a funny joke?" Jing Lihua gave a fake laugh trying her best to make it sound natural. In her over vigilance, she ended up overdoing it making it sound stiff and strange.
Dammit!
Li Zhiqiang and Li Xun started sweating profusely. None of them dared to move up his head. Li Xun looked so pale as if he could pass out at any moment. Looking at him, Li Zhiqiang took the role of big brother and stood up to save the day. Why was his Jing Jing so stupid getting them in the situation. She obviously didn't know their mother well. "Mother, Jing Lihua must have been confused that is why she said that. Don't be anxious. How can she be married? You know that she is loyal to us."
Silence. Madame Bao didn't say anything. She didn't even berate Li Zhiqiang.
It was killing Jing Lihua.
"M-Madama Bao?" Madame Bao didn't give a response. She was like a frozen status with clouds of Hell surrounding her. Any moment the volcano could erupt.
Please say something! Anything!
"M-Mother."
"Huh? Did someone call me? Xiao Jing, was it you? Sorry, I just dozed off. What were we talking about again?" Her voice back at being normal. It was as if nothing ever happened.
Li Zhiqiang: "..."
Li Xun: "..."
This is not happening.
"Of course, about the marriage thingy, you were joking. I already know that. Let's arrange the engagement date for you two the fifteen of next month, shall we?" Madame Bao smiled and ordered the dessert fixing the things as final.
Jing Lihua: "..." Why were things back there again?
Sadly for Jing Lihua, she couldn't object. Things were settled as final by Madame Bao. Only once they all finished up the dinner, Madame Bao went her separate way while Li Zhiqiang stole away Jing Lihua for some time.
Outside all her sweet smiles disappeared and the first thing she did was to give a call to the family lawyer. "Find out to whom Jing Lihua is married to. I want is full detail and send me the files for the legal process of getting them divorced." Her eyes were dark. The back suited bodyguards around them looked at each other nervously. "Come on boys. We have some people to kill." She walked out determined and smoothly in her long heels while the horde of bodyguards followed her.
...
Inside the car, Jing Lihua was laughing.
After safely transporting a half-dazed Li Xun to the airport back to hong kong, Li Zhiqiang offered to drop Jing Lihua to her office.
"You don't believe me?" Li Zhiqiang sighed helplessly. Looking at her like that, he couldn't say he hadn't expected such a response from her.
"It's not that I don't want to believe you. What you are saying is simply too ridiculous." Jing Lihua hardly stopped laughing. "And to say that you are saying that with such a serious expression on your face." She laughed again. It was hilarious. Li Zhiqiang was getting delusional.
"Ridiculousness is the adequate word to define my mother's antics." Jing Jing didn't know anything. She just didn't.
"Come on, she sounds like a perfect sweet lady! Why do you have to be so salty? I don't think she would be investigating anything about me behind my back."
"Yeah, why would she? I mean she totally bought into your fake laugh!" Li Zhiqiang said sarcastically.
Jing Lihua stopped laughing. "Alright, maybe she didn't. But..." Jing Lihua couldn't bear to think of something excessive from a gentle lady like Madame Bao. She meant, Madame Bao looked o cam and gentle! How would she do anything like that? Yes, apart from the sudden crazy look around her that time, she was a perfect sweet flower. "Li Zhiqiang, you are overthinking it." Jing Lihua shook her head.
"You don't want to believe then fine, don't. Just wait and see for yourself." Li Zhiqiang knew Jing Lihua wouldn't believe him. After all, his mother had deceived countless people with her sweet demeanor. "But what are you going to do about our engagement party on the fifteen of the next month?"
Jing Lihua froze. She totally forgot about that.
