Chapter 1168 Mother Tang
Because Xue Ping was worried that she would not be able to get her hands on Tang Zhou and would lose the opportunity that Celestial Master Ding had handed her, she became even more active while pursuing Tang Zhou. It did not matter to her if he did not allow her inside her company, Xue Ping would squat in front of his company and wait for him to come out.
If he did not see her through the front gate, then Xue Ping would return with big fanfare such as balloons and a music band, all the while she confessed to him again and again. She ignored everything that the Ji family told her, nor did she care about what others were saying about her while talking about her actions. In the eyes of others, she was just a silly girl who had gone crazy because of her infatuation.
Because Xue Ping wanted to get closer to Tang Zhou as soon as possible, she did not even hesitate to go to the Tang house where she begged the Tang family's elders while confessing her love for Tang Zhou. She knew that Mother Tang was in a hurry to find a decent daughter-in-law after the divorce of Tang Zhou.
Thus she was not reluctant while feigning the appearance of a girl who was in love with Tang Zhou.
Her act was so good that everyone believed that Xue Ping was in love with Tang Zhou. Only Tang Zhou knew that Xue Ping was pretending. The more she aggressive Xue Ping was the more Song Yan warned him, she told him again and again that if he fell now then he would never get a chance to live another day. Tang Zhou already had suspicions towards Xue Ping, however after Song Yan's constant reminders, he suddenly started to feel that the woman in front of him was after his life.
If not then why would Song Yan warn him like such? Tang Zhou was now even more wary of Xue Ping as he closely suspected that Xue Ping's intentions were not good.
He tried to stay away from Xue Ping no matter how much she tried to get closer to him. But no matter how much Tang Zhou kept his guard up, he was still a tad bit unskilled when compared to the woman who killed three women and three men.?One particular evening he received a call from his mother that she wanted him to accompany her to the Ji family for a small banquet.
Tang Zhou had heard about the banquet but after receiving Song Yan's warning he was going to ignore it. He did not expect his mother to suddenly call him to accompany her.
Mother Tang was in a good mood and did not hear a thing that Tang Zhou was saying. In fact, she was more than happy to allow Tang Zhou and Ji Ziyi to get closer, after all, it was a great thing that a woman around Ji Ziyi's age was pursuing her son. This pursuit was not only a slap on the face of that woman who said that no one would marry Tang Zhou but it also satisfied her ego, she said to her son, " You should get ready and come with me."
Tang Zhou who had received many warnings from Song Yan immediately refused, " There is no need, Mother. If I go to the banquet it will be really a hassle everyone will think that I am agreeing to Miss Ji's proposal if I was to attend the banquet. It's better that you go with Dad."
There were already a lot of people teasing him about Ji Ziyi these days and Tang Zhou did not want the rumours to become even more intense. He was not a man who played coy or hard to get. However, if he was to attend the banquet then everyone would think that he was just playing with Ji Ziyi. It was better to avoid suspicion!
Chi Jia who had never thought that someone like Ji Ziyi would actually fall for someone like Tang Zhou relished the gossip that was being fed to him. He really did not think that a woman as shady and arrogant as Ji Ziyi would actually chase after a man like this. It was as if she was truly lovesick.
In the past, he thought that Ji Ziyi really had some intentions but after witnessing the love-sick Ji Ziyi, he was truly touched by her actions. Even he could not feel that Ji Ziyi was really true to her pursuit and that Tang Zhou was being a bit too hard on that little girl.
Mother Tang on the other hand cursed her son for being too foolish. She rolled her eyes and then said, " Zhou'er,?you are not young anymore. You should find a partner and give your father and me a grandchild. Do you even know how heartbroken we were when we found out that the children we raised were not ours? It nearly killed us! We are not young how long do you expect us to live?"
Tang Zhou knew that his mother was in a hurry but he really could not bring himself to get closer to Xue Ping. That woman's assertiveness was tinged with danger, and he did not dare to treat her lightly.
When he thought about how that woman tried all sorts of means to get closer to him, going as far as sneaking into the room where he was staying and felt even more repulsed. There was no way that woman was throwing her face away like this, for no reason. Tang Zhou remembered the warnings noted in his messages and shivered before saying, " No need Mother. You and father are still young, there will be many more chances. Do you want me to marry a woman who is so young and infatuated with me? Mom, don't be foolish. That woman is not even twenty, what if she changes her mind later on? Wouldn't it be troublesome? She is so young, she does not even understand anything."
"Mom, don't be in a hurry! It's better if you teach her instead of going along with her impulsive actions."
