Yin Puppet Talisman
As soon as Bai Long left the room, Sun Hai drank the cup full of tea.
Next, he made sure to open the door and check if Bai Long had really left, before turning towards Zhenya.
”What were you doing with him, mother?!”
”Nothing special. We met each other when I was coming back from shopping. Then, he helped me carry my basket home and so I invited him to drink some tea with me.”
”That's it?”
”Yes.”
As Sun Hai kept on staring towards her, Zhenya couldn't help but look away and blush.
Looking at this expression, Sun Hai felt that she was definitely hiding something. But despite having a clue about it, he didn't dare say the words out loud.
”Mother, please don't ever talk to Prince Bai Long again.”
Stunned Zhenya looked towards Sun Hai, and asked, ”What are you talking about, son?”
”Just.... Don't ever meet him again! And don't invite him inside the house!”
”Reduce your voice, and change your tone, first.”
Gritting his teeth at how his mother didn't seem to be listening to his words, Sun Hai was now practically shouting.
”Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about! I don't want my mother to have any sort of romantic relationship with the boy!”
”If not for me, at least consider your age first!”
Listening until here Zhenya felt completely angry towards her son in a long time.
”Sun Hai! Your mother is a woman, and is free to do whatever she wants! And if you don't like what I do, you're more than welcome to leave and never come back!”
At that moment Zhenya didn't know what took over her, but she felt that it was better to be with Bai Long who was trying to make her happy, instead of her son, who was standing in the way of her happiness.
”Mother... You... ”
Not saying anything else Sun Hai stormed out of the room and slammed the door shut behind him.
”This brat... Acting like a kid even after growing so much.”
Not saying anything else, Zhenya continued sipping her tea which was rapidly turning cold as she kept on thinking about Bai Long.
...
For the next few days, Bai Long and Zhenya kept on meeting in the same spot after she was done shopping, and he accompanied her home.
Once they reached her house, Zhenya would invite Bai Long to have a cup of tea, where she would only make two cups instead of three.
Noticing this Bai Long would smile on the inside, and hug her the whole time she was brewing tea while knowing that Sun Hai was peaking at them through a gap in the door.
After the tea was ready, like an old couple the two would drink it while looking at the plants.
