I Heard You Are Going to Marry Me Chapter 4: Trust Your Mother, Xing Biao Is Really a Good Man

“Mom, am I your son? Why do you force me to marry a gangster?”

“Nonsense! What’s wrong with a gangster? He is trying to escape from the identity of a gangster, and he has his own legal business.”

“Did he threaten you? We are living in a society with increasingly perfect law systems. Did he collect protection fee? Blackmail? Practice usury? I can call the police to arrest him, to give him a life sentence!”

Su Mo had ideas of thousands of evils did by a gangster. His family would never be involved in such a gangster. He was sure that Xing Biao forced his parents to do so. His own mother would never ask him to marry a gangster!

Shit! Xing Biao! It was more ridiculous than a really ridiculous TV play.

“No.”

Su Mo’s mother shook her head innocently.

“We are operating a small teahouse. Some senior citizens like to drink tea, play Mahjong and go for a walk in a quiet place with a bird there. One day, Xing Biao and his friend drank tea in the teahouse, and some hoods collected protection fee. They were so fierce. Your father wanted to talk with them about their illegal behaviors, but they pushed your father. We are old, and cannot fight with them. You are far away abroad, and we were helpless. Xing Biao could not bear and beat them in a wall corner. They never came back since then.”

Su Mo was surprised. Xing Biao was a man with a feeling for justice. Wasn’t that ridiculous?

“But, why do you ask me to marry him? How do you know that he is keen on a man?”

Su Mo wanted to know why were his parents so determined to do so.

“We are really appreciated. He and a boy drank tea there on that day. That boy was handsome living nearby. That boy said that they were not suitable with each other, and you do not understand me. I like opera, but you prefer opera. I like western food but you prefer northeast stew dishes. I like coffee but you think it a cup of guano. You do not study as a college student. We are not in a circle. We are not suitable for each other. Just break up.”

Xing Biao beat the table and got angry. Shit! I bought everything you want, and you spent my money to buy things for another man! I’m so kind to not take back money, and you are talking about elegance with me! Get away! He kicked that boy out. I did not think it is the mistake of Xing Biao, but the boy. I tried to comfort him. After that, he often came to the teahouse and asked about those hoods. He asked us to call him if they came back again, and said that he would protect us.

I liked him very much, and told him that I had a son of the same age with him I showed your photo to him. Xing Biao said you looked handsome. I suggested that you two can get engagement, and find a time to get married. I like both of you. I’m relieved after you marry him. I believe that he will treat you very well.”

“So, you sold me?”

“I’m not selling you. I’m finding a good man for you.”

Su Mo lifted up his eyes and sighed. His innocent and lovely mother read too much novels.

“Enough, mom! I’m telling you again that I will never meet him.”

“Mo, although you two cannot get married, he has helped our family so much. He could choose to stay silent at that moment. We were badly treated when you were not with us. He protected us. Don’t you want to say thank you face to face?”

Mo’s mother stared at him, and he could say nothing. His mother was right. He should say thank you face to face.

“You’ve got a higher education background. You have learned abroad. So you look down upon that man with low education background just like that boy?”

“No, I don’t do.”

“Then see him and say thank you to him.”

Taking back the ingratiation and obsequiousness just now, Su Mo’s mother showed her stateliness as a mother.

“OK. I’ll say thank you to him for his help when I was not here.”

Su Mo’s mother laughed. She knew that Mo would be obedient as long as he came back.

Su Mo seemed cool and arrogant. In fact, he was so softhearted.

“Change this suit of clothes.”

Mo’s mother gave him a suit of formal clothes for a bridegroom.

Su Mo walked out directly with his walking stick.

“The café out of the community? I’ll wait him there.”

He would prefer to go die than wearing this suit. It was too solemn. He just wanted to see Xing Biao and said thank you to him.
