Chapter 334 Good Taste
All through the journey, Zhang Liling was neglected as only her mother and Mr. Fang engaged in a conversation.
At a point, she was forced to speak up after ensuring the silent treatment.
"Mum, are you two treating me like air now?" She questioned with a high level of annoynace in her eyes.
Her voice sounded so angry as if she was about to tear them both apart.
\'I can\'t believe she is jealous only because I\'ve been speaking to her mother all this while.\' Fang Bingwen who was sitting at the front passenger seat, thought, his gaze refusing to leave his girlfriend.
Her outburst came as a surprise to him, and to Song Jujing who didn\'t take it to heart.
"Who is treating you like air? Haven\'t I been speaking to you for a long time now? I haven\'t spoken to Bingwen in along while and now that I\'m trying to catch up with his wellbeing, you can\'t accept it?"
What was going on in that girl\'s head?
Zhang Liling remained unmoved. "If you two are going to catch up with each other by secluding me in one corner, drop me off here." She said, finally turning her gaze away.
Song Jujing scoffed. "Do you think I can\'t ask the driver to drop you off by the road side?"
"If you do that, don\'t come to my house. Go to the hotel."
Song Jujing rolled her eyes at her. "That will be fine. I will just sell off everything you asked me to bring for you."
She Just wanted to see who would lose at the end. After all, she was still her mother, and she definitely knew how to deal with her stubbornness.
Learning of the threat that might come to pass, Zhang Liling turned her face to the side to glance at her mother for only a brief moment before shifting her gaze elsewhere.
There was no other reason to retort. She was already at the loosing end.
Arriving at her apartment, the four got off the car.
Mr. Fang\'s intentions were to big a proper goodbye to then before leaving, but how could Song Jujing let him leave just like that?
She immediately took his hand, urging him to come up for a quick breakfast.
\'How sure are you that I have food stuffs in the house?\' Zhang Liling thought to herself as she was forced to watch the duo ahead of her.
Anyway, it\'s not like she would dare to not stock up her refrigerator. It\'s not like she wanted to get hit on the back by her mother who would not hesitate to accuse her of trying to starve her.
Song Jujing made sure her future son-in-law was already sitting comfortably before going into the bedroom to find a special tea she came with from Paris, before walking into the kitchen.
She had come with one of her favourite teas, and decided to let Fang Bingwen try it and besides, it was more interesting to take it in the morning before any other food enters the stomach.
With Song Jujing gone, Fang Bingwen finally had the opportunity to talk to Zhang Liling who was looking everywhere except at him.
"Why are you annoyed?" He inquired.
"Do you remember that your girlfriend is still existing?" Zhang Liling rolled her eyes without sparing him a glance.
Now that she had his attention, she was not going to make things easy for him, and she really followed his mind.
After a few unsuccessful attempt to make her happy again, Fang Bingwen was forced to give up as Song Jujing soon arrived with three cups of tea on a small square-shaped stainless steel tray.
Thinking that her mother had chosen to omit her again on seeing only two cups of tea on the tray, Zhang Liling rose to her feet, attempting to leave them both alone, but she got stopped.
"Where are you going?" Song Jujing asked seeing as she was about to leave their presence.
"I was forced to wake up by 4 just to pick you from the airport. I\'m still a bit tired, I\'m going back to sleep." Zhang Liling replied, attempting to walk away, but she was forced to stop again.
"You should sit and talk with Bingwen while I go inside to freshen up and get some sleep. I was the one who stayed up all night due to the uncomfortable flight."
Saying that, she turned her attention back to Fang Bingwen with a smile. She said a few words to him before turning to leave.
Zhang Liling was unable to retort to retort against her mother for she was right with her claims.
At least she managed to get some rest, while she on the other hand, had to endure an uncomfortable flight for several hours.
Fang Bingwen\'s gaze followed her as she returned to her seat, but without getting the chance to see her sit, she walked to the centre to pick up the two cups of tea.
Coming over to his side, she passed on to him before going back to her seat.
"Thank you," he said as the wonderful aroma of the tea filled his lungs.
Thankfully, he had taken his drugs before stepping out, so he was fine with it.
Although he was now using a perfume that smelled like Zhang Liling\'s scent which didn\'t give him troubles, he was still yet to stop taking his drugs.
The only thing the perfume did for him, was to reduce the number of times he took his drugs.
As long as he wore it, he was good to go with a total of 4 pills a day.
"The aroma is so strong." Zhang Liling commented as she brought the cup of hot tea to her lips.
Slurping the liquid, she put the cup away from her lips as her lashes fluttered close, allowing the taste on her tongue to linger while enjoying it.
"Your mother has a good taste." Fang Bingwen commented from the side after equally tasting the tea.
