Chapter 647: What Is Wrong With Her?

In one’s lifetime, it’s truly not easy to meet someone you genuinely like, is it? His heart was tired, and now he wanted to be a bit selfish.

Xiaomeng was a good woman. It was not her fault in the past. He genuinely didn’t mind; he just felt sorry for her.

“He Ming, you’ve become too headstrong, ignoring your parents’ feelings.” Mother He raised her voice.

Yao Ning sat there feeling uncomfortable, watching the two of them argue more and more fiercely. She couldn’t even get a word in. She chuckled bitterly; what right did she, an outsider, have to intervene?

She felt awkward just sitting there.

Seeing He Ming’s flushed face, she realized it was the first time she had seen him fight for his own happiness like this.

In her impression, he had always been polite and charming. They had never even had a heated argument before. It was evident how much he loved that woman.

“Mom, I’m begging you. Think about it. Xiaomeng is really a good girl. She’s strong, optimistic, filial, everything. What’s there to be unsatisfied about?” He Ming had really put everything on the line. He really didn’t know how to convince his mother.

Mother He was taken aback, momentarily at a loss for words to refute He Ming.

Indeed, she had liked Xiaomeng at first. But after learning about her past, she had developed prejudice against her. Once someone formed a prejudice, it was really hard to correct.

Under He Ming’s questioning, she was truly speechless.

Finally, the tension between them eased a bit. Seeing this, Yao Ning stood up, making an excuse to leave.

“Auntie, please don’t be upset. Take care of yourself and don’t get too stressed,” Yao Ning said to Mother He.

“Good child, thank you. I’m sorry you had to witness this today,” Mother He felt a bit embarrassed. She had originally intended to play matchmaker for them, but who knew things would turn out like this?

She felt that He Ming was doing it on purpose. He always chose the time when Yao Ning was around to bring it up. Did he already know her intentions?

Oh well, all her efforts had been in vain. She knew Yao Ning liked He Ming; otherwise, she wouldn’t have made time to come over, especially since she herself was quite busy.

“Auntie, please don’t say that. I came to see you. He Ming is grown up now and has his own opinions. You don’t need to worry too much, especially since you’re still recovering. Don’t overthink things,” Yao Ning had to maintain composure and understanding in front of He Ming.

“Good child, it’s He Ming’s misfortune,” Mother He sighed.

“Auntie, please don’t say that. He Ming is so outstanding. You should feel proud and happy. Everything will work out naturally,” Yao Ning’s words made Mother He feel a bit better.

He Ming looked at Yao Ning gratefully. Her words successfully convinced Mother He.

It turned out he had been petty and had dirty thoughts.

“Okay, I won’t interfere anymore,” Mother He said petulantly, like a child.

Yao Ning knew she had calmed down, so she bid farewell.

He Ming escorted her out. “Yao Ning, thank you.”

He was truly grateful to her; otherwise, his mother wouldn’t have calmed down so quickly.

“No problem. It’s just a matter of reasoning things out. Auntie just couldn’t understand for a moment. She’ll come around,” Yao Ning said, enduring the pain in her heart.
