Chapter 190: Maternal love like a corpse

Ms. He's voice coming out of the microphone was still as gentle and elegant as Zhou Jingyun remembered.

"Jingyun, mom's plane has just landed. Can you come over to City B to have dinner with mom?"

When she didn't hear Zhou Jingyun's reply immediately, she laughed sheepishly again.

"It's all my fault that Mom missed you so much that she forgot to ask you, are you busy at work?"

"If you're very busy, you can come over for a late-night snack. Mom hasn't seen you for a long time and wants to see you."

It was obviously a tender content full of maternal love, but Zhou Jingyun frowned when he heard it and looked at the little idiot opposite.

Zhan Haiyang saw him answering the phone and stopped criticizing.

But looking at the bitterness and hatred on his face, everyone knew that he was just cursing in his heart.

Zhou Jingyun looked into the phone and asked calmly, "Why did you come back suddenly?"

There was no emotion in his voice, but there was a wave of annoyance in his heart.

Ms. He Liqiu has settled abroad in recent years.

It’s rare to come back two or three times a year, so why is it such a coincidence this time?

Ms. He opposite didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with her son's plain tone.

Her son had some weird moments when he was young.

When he was let go to live in the old house, he was also getting along like a fish in water.

In just over half a month, she has already become one of the old man's favorite grandchildren.

But she couldn't remember clearly.

At what time, the man with crooked eyes and a round face followed behind her.

The child who shouted "Mom, don't go" in a soft voice suddenly became taciturn.

Fortunately, my son has always been obedient.

Studying and working are both good, and I don’t know how many times better than those dudes in the Beijing circle who only rely on Zu Yin’s breath.

It didn't worry her at all.

Ms. He smiled slightly, with a carefree joy in her voice.

"What's so sudden? The New Year is coming up in half a month. Aren't you going to come back to celebrate the New Year?"

"Are you too busy working and forgetting the time?"

Then, there was no need for Zhou Jingyun to ask.

She took the initiative and told her the reason why she went to City B as the first stop after returning to China.

"A friend just happened to come to me to discuss a project. I thought that City B is also close to you, so I can just meet you by the way."

"We haven't seen mother and son for so long. Why don't you come over here and have a meal with mom?"

He Liqiu was expecting and excited, but Zhou Jingyun's response was silence.

He Liqiu has always been like this. Every thought comes out.

Such an emergency summons would happen almost every time she returned to the country.

Usually, Zhou Jingyun would put down work and move away from meetings, just to satisfy Ms. He's motherly love.

But this time, he had more important things to do.

Zhou Jingyun said quietly, "I can't leave here, let's talk about it later."

But how could Ms. He be rejected by him so easily?

"Son, is work so important?"

"Listen to my mother, family relationships are the most lasting in a person's life."

"Mom only comes back a few times a year. If I want to invite you to have a meal, why don't you put your work aside?"

Every word Ms. He spoke was affectionate to her beloved son.

She never thought that Zhou Jingyun's rejection of her would be due to reasons other than work.

It seems that at this moment, this dinner for mother and son to reunite is the most important thing in the world.

Zhou Jingyun didn't look good until he hung up the phone.

Zhan Haiyang raised his head from the menu and glanced at him secretly.

Since Zhou Jingyun had no intention of avoiding him when he called just now, as his boyfriend, he naturally listened to it openly.

It seems that someone wants to ask Zhou Jingyun to have dinner together in the evening?

Moreover, the other party was someone Zhou Jingyun could not refuse outright.

Zhan Haiyang thought he was not a stingy person, but he still felt very uncomfortable.

It was this first time for these two people to hang out. If Zhou Jingyun had just left him to go to someone else's appointment.

That is indeed a disappointing thing.

So how will Zhou Jingyun deal with it?

The second time Zhan Haiyang peeked at Zhou Jingyun, he was caught red-handed.

Their eyes met.

"What are you peeking at? Just ask if you want."

When Zhou Jingyun was caught by the little fool, he pretended to be calm and looked away, which made him feel better.

After being told directly by the man, Zhan Haiyang became more generous.

He puffed up his chest, pretending to be confident about checking the target's whereabouts, and asked: "Is someone looking for you to go out at night?"

There was no need to hide anything, so Zhou Jingyun directly told him that He Liqiu suddenly returned to China and asked him to eat.

After hearing what he said, Zhan Haiyang suddenly felt a little nervous.

Ah, it's Zhou Jingyun's mother calling.

He originally thought that at most he would be a partner or a friend like Director Guo.

Zhan Haiyang's momentum of checking the post suddenly disappeared.

No wonder Zhou Jingyun didn’t refuse immediately just now!

I wonder if the person named "Zhan Haiyang" has a relatively weak relationship with his parents.

There are not many fragments of maternal love in Zhan Haiyang's memories of his two lives.

For him, "mother" is a somewhat luxurious title.

The image of "mother" in his mind was derived from the descriptions of classmates or colleagues.

Dining with his mother, who has not returned to China for a long time, is a very grand event for Zhan Haiyang.

As soon as Zhou Jingyun's mother returned to China, she flew near him first.

As soon as I got off the plane, I called him immediately and said I wanted to see him and have dinner with him.

Their mother-son relationship should be very good.

Then he really shouldn't become a stumbling block to prevent Zhou Jingyun from having dinner with his mother.

Thinking of this, Zhan Haiyang glanced at Zhou Jingyun again.

Only then did I realize that the expression on the man's face was not really one of expectation and happiness.

When the words came to my lips, they were all stuck again.

In Zhou Jingyun's eyes, the little fool was simply a fool.

To know what he is thinking, just looking at his expression is enough.

At this time, the hesitant expression on Zhan Haiyang's face clearly meant:

Mom, that’s your mother. Although I’m reluctant to part with it, you’d better go!

Zhou Jingyun chuckled lightly and raised one corner of his lips.

It looked like he was laughing, but more like he was being sarcastic.

"If my mother really cared about me, she should have called me to preview the trip at least before getting on the plane, so as to give me time to make work arrangements."

"Besides, it's not like there is no airport in city A, but she still chose to fly to city B."

"That means I'm not the most important thing in her heart."

To my mother, he was just a treasure when she thought of it, and he was just a root when she didn't think of it.

He is a prop for her to show off her successful experience in raising offspring, and a tool for her to establish the image of a loving mother.

It is a symbol that can give her a sense of self-satisfaction when she wants to return to her family.

In the past, Zhou Jingyun knew that she was unhappy in her marriage and would let her have anything he could.

When she wanted to enjoy the "mother's kindness and son's filial piety", he appeared at the right time.

However, this was the first time that he and Zhan Haiyang came out, and it was impossible to leave them behind.

It was not his fault that her marriage was unhappy.

Don't encourage others to do good without hurting them.

Zhan Haiyang didn't know what Zhou Jingyun had gone through, and he couldn't express any opinions at will.

He sighed, "You make up your own mind."

"Anyway, I'm a person who doesn't even have a mother."
