To My Dear Mr. Huo-Novel2
Chapter 289 - You Expect Me to Put Up With Su Qingsang?Chapter 289: You Expect Me to Put Up With Su Qingsang?
“Mother, do you know what you’re saying? You expect me to put up with Su Qingsang?”
“I don’t mean that you have to submit to her whims and fancies. You just shouldn’t agitate her. We’ll have to monitor the situation before deliberating our next move.”
“I just can’t swallow my anger this time.” At the thought of Qiu Yanbo, Su Peizhen was consumed by rage. “What right does she have over me?”
“There, there,” Li Qianxue was still in the dark about her daughter’s irateness and felt a sense of helplessness as she held her daughter’s hand. “Given the likes of Qiu Yanbo, I don’t see what’s redeeming about him. My daughter is such a fine young lady, there shouldn’t be a problem looking for someone of a better caliber than him. Qiu Yanbo failed to see what he has, so you’ll have to let go and move on. No matter what, you’ll have to look for someone like Huo Jinyao, right?”
Huo Jinyao, it’s about Huo Jinyao again. Either way, the fault lies with Su Qingsang.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSu Peizhen could never fault herself. She was adamant that Su Qingsang was the one at fault. This was all because of her. She was the root of the problem.
“Mother, I really can’t take it lying down. I...” Su Peizhen was filled with bitterness. Her resentment of the situation caused her to hold onto Li Qianxue like a willful child.
“Alright, alright,” Li Qianxue patted her daughter’s back. “I’ll be sure to find a better man for you. Be good now.”
Su Peizhen held her tongue. If Li Qianxue was unwilling to deal with Su Qingsang because she wanted to tread carefully around Huo Jinyao, then Su Peizhen was prepared to deal with Su Qingsang herself. I can always let her have a taste of her own medicine without physically hurting her, can’t I?
At that moment, a thought crossed Su Peizhen and she jolted upright.
“Oh, right. Mother, Su Qingsang was accompanied by an elderly woman today.” historical
“An elderly woman? What elderly woman?”
“I don’t know,” Su Peizhen was perplexed. “The woman looked to be in her fifties. Su Qingsang addressed her as ‘aunt’. How would she have an aunt? Do you think that woman is Huo Jinyao’s relative?”
“Does Huo Jinyao have a visiting relative?”
“Could she be Huo Jinyao’s mother or someone related to the Huo Family? Su Qingsang was especially nice to her. She took her shopping for a lot of clothes.”
“Which relative are you talking about? Could it be that Huo Jinyao’s mother is here for a visit?” Su Chenghui overheard the conversation.
He had just gotten back from his social commitments. Due to the joint venture with Tianyu Group, the Li Family was kept busy these days.
Upon returning home, he had caught on to Su Peizhen’s previous comment. “If the Huo Family has a visiting relative, we will have to extend our hospitality by treating her to a meal.”
Su Chenghui sat on the sofa as he spoke and a domestic helper came over to serve him some tea.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe received the cup of tea and took a sip of it before looking at Su Peizhen, “Are you sure she’s Huo Jinyao’s relative?”
Though he did not favor Su Qingsang, he had to acknowledge the fact that she had an eye for choosing the right husband. Huo Jinyao was definitely a formidable character.
The joint venture with Tianyu Group not only brought the Li Corporation substantial profits, the latter also stood to benefit in several lucrative ways.
During this period of time, Su Chenghui was in constant contact with Huo Jinyao. Even though he did not pick Huo Jinyao as his son-in-law, he really admired Huo Jinyao and held him in high regard.
“Father,” Su Peizhen felt that her father’s words were the last thing she needed to hear at this moment. To add insult to injury, Su Chenghui looked eager to be on Huo Jinyao’s good side.
“I don’t think she looked anything like someone related to the Huo Family. She looked more like a country bumpkin. If she was really Huo Jinyao’s mother, why did Su Qingsang address her as ‘aunt’?”
Though Su Chenghui had been drinking, he was not drunk. Addressed her as ‘aunt’? Well, I’ll ask Huo Jinyao about it tomorrow. Su Chenghui was working with Huo Jinyao regularly nowadays.
Upon returning home, Huo Jinyao espied a pile of shopping bags in the living room and Su Qingsang sorting them out.
