CHAPTER 703
"Yes, mother."
"No. Ye Cheng you cannot just say that and expect me to agree. What the hell has happened?" Li An inquired.
"Nothing much mother. I just want you close by."
"No. Something happened, Ye Cheng and it is high time you tell it to me."
Understanding how his mother behaved, he knew better than anyone that he would not be able to get from her claws if he does not tell her.
"Fine. I got a call from the Chairman of Zhang Group."
"And?" she asked impatiently.
"He threatens to get me through you and Li Jing."
"I see. Hehhee, that old man do not know when to call it quits does he?"
"Mom. Understand me. I do not want anything that would hurt you. I want you close by so I can ensure your safety and Li Jing's."
"I know but I have never been a liability to you and I would not become now starting now. Not when you need me the most."
