Chapter 1306: Chapter 1305: Getting the Cold Shoulder Chapter 1306: Chapter 1305: Getting the Cold Shoulder Indeed, when they returned, Mother Zhou’s expression was somewhat unsightly, and she seemed rather indifferent toward Bai Lan.

“I had the meal prepared a long time ago, and now it’s all gone cold, always dragging your feet like this,” Mother Zhou muttered, her tone filled with nothing but dissatisfaction toward Bai Lan.

She knew her son was always quick and decisive in his actions, but he was just too obedient to his wife.

“Mom, I’m sorry, it was my oversleeping that made us late.” Bai Lan quickly apologized, knowing that it was her fault no matter what.

Mother Zhou let out a soft “hmmph” with a displeased look between her brows.

Zhou Shengting furrowed his brows, “Mom, if it’s cold, we can just heat it up. What’s the big deal?”

Upon hearing this, Mother Zhou felt a fire in her heart. Indeed, just by making a small comment, her son started to have opinions, truly a henpecked husband with no backbone.

Seeing Mother Zhou’s poor expression, Bai Lan tugged at Zhou Shengting’s sleeve, signaling him not to argue with Mother Zhou.

Zhou Shengting, noticing Bai Lan was somewhat nervous, nodded and led her to the dining table.

Soon, the servants served the dishes.

Mother Zhou glanced over them coldly, sat down, and said, “Bai Lan, I’m not criticizing you, but you’re pregnant now. You shouldn’t wander around carelessly. It’s a good thing nothing happened this time, but what about next time?”

Mother Zhou also knew about Bai Lan’s predicament, having called earlier and not finding her, then learning about it from the driver.

It was because she went to her mother’s house that such an incident occurred.

“Mom, I’m sorry, I’ll be more careful in the future.” Bai Lan bit her lip gently, then said softly.

Since she was the closest person to Zhou Shengting, she couldn’t talk back.

“Mom, this isn’t Bai Lan’s fault. The other party came for me, and it was unavoidable, so please don’t blame Bai Lan,” Zhou Shengting spoke calmly.

Mother Zhou kept silent and continued eating.

After the meal, Bai Lan took the opportunity to go for a walk in the courtyard. She knew Mother Zhou must have had something to tell Zhou Shengting, and since she had been present earlier, it wasn’t convenient.

As soon as Bai Lan stepped out of the door, Mother Zhou pulled Zhou Shengting aside and started scolding, “Sheng Ting, I don’t mind you loving your wife, but now you’re just spoiling her too much. A pregnant woman still going all over the place, didn’t she just go back to her parents’ house a while ago? Why does she want to go back again? You need to establish your authority as a husband.”

Mother Zhou looked at her son, feeling disappointed in his failure to meet her expectations, not understanding how he had become so enchanted by Bai Lan. She had warned him before, but he never took it to heart.

“Mom, I’ll say it one last time, Bai Lan is my wife. As long as she’s happy, I support whatever she does. Please stop talking about it,” Zhou Shengting felt helpless, his mother was probably just bored.

“Mom, you’ve got some free time lately. How about arranging a trip abroad with some friends?” Zhou Shengting felt his mother was simply too idle, which was why she wanted to meddle in everything.

“What, you find me nagging, so you want me to leave?” Mother Zhou said irritably, “Having a piece of roast pork would be better than having you.”

“No, Mom, I’m worried you might find it dull at home,” Zhou Shengting explained, “and soon, when your granddaughter arrives, you won’t have time anymore.”

“It’s not a granddaughter, it’s a grandson,” Mother Zhou corrected, having looked at Bai Lan’s belly, she was sure it was a son.

Mother Zhou certainly hoped for a boy, as Bai Lan was not in good health, and it would probably be difficult for her to have a second child.
