Switch Destiny

Chapter 16

She closed her eyes and dared not open to see him, for fear of his eyesight. She didn't dare to see him again. Lady Mo heard the news that this man interfered in her plan. And unfortunately Zhan Fu is safe and under his protection.

"Did you meet with Bai Yu Tong?" He asked not knowing still that she was behind all this horrible mess. Mr. Bai Yu got finally home and saw her sitting with his wife in the balcony. Both looked at him but her gazes were shaking.

She wanted to shake her head and say she was not afraid, but she couldn't.
She shuddered and could not say a word. It was a cold, rainy winter night, but she felt awfully hot, like being inside a boiling hot pot drowning in her own sweat.

"Lady Mo, are you okay?" He was smart to grasp the situation. But she smiled at last and turned his attention away when she frowned and looked unexpectedly sad.

"I couldn't meet him, they told me he left with some girl" She said while cluless of who was the girl in the first place. Her eyes were acting cool when hiding an unstoppable fear.

"Sure not a man?" Madam Lan surprised both of them by her sudden statement. The two looked at her before Lady Mo's troubles face turned into inquisitiveness as she asked.

"What do you mean?" She was dead curious to know if they know anything about Zhan Yao and whose the man she was asking about while wearing a disappointed expression.

"Darling, you tell her because I feel so uncomfortable saying this" Madam Lin sipped from her cup of tea as she sighed closing her eyes in denial. When did all this happen. She blames her husband for sending him to a dormitory that he ended up being gay.

"I am sorry but Bai Yu Tong is in a relationship with his roommate, and the two are so in love that he confessed to him even in front of me" He sat on the empty chair next to his wife and poured himself a glass of water while studying her expression.

It was natural that she was scared and surprised at the same time. She knows who her son is in love with now after hearing them talk on the phone. She unexpectedly felt uncomfortable while shaking and reluctant to hearing such an awful thing.

Mr. Bai Yu  threw away his tie on the table and sighed silently, thinking that there was no difference from dating a guy or a girl since his son is being happy and is maturing bit by bit. When he only judged people by their attitudes and behaviours.

"And what do you think, Yu Tong's father?" Lady Mo asked unexpectedly as she looked at him with teary eyes. As if she lost the whole war. Her efforts of so many years has come to nothingness. She couldn't burst her anger as she was holding it in and burrying it deep inside to keep strong.

"He is fine, his son is in love with a man who won't bear him any heirs and yet his is fine, what a hideous relationship" Madame Lin huffed and puffed loudly trying to take her breath out.

"Good night" He stood up totally ignoring both women and left to his office. He has more important things to do to just sit and witness their stubbornness. He believed in what he thinks the most as well as his son's love to that man and he won't let anyone get in between them.

Lady Mo widened her eyes, surprised at the unexpected bad news. She was sacrificing herself for the sake of him yet he chose their son to be his long life partner not even asking for her permission. The loss she felt hit her heard on her conciousness before she excused herself and went to her room.

Madame Lin joined her husband and suddenly bent on her knees grabbing into his right leg. She begged while crying hysterically. He quickly got her up from the ground, and hugged her. She felt gloomy as she cried in his embrace, afraid from a dark uncanny futur.
