Chapter 356: Another World

Su Qingsang noticed Huo Jinyao’s subtle act and turned to give him a smile.

Both Shi Mengwan and Xiang Caiping noticed the pair’s attitude towards each other. Xiang Caiping then felt better after her previous unhappiness.

On the other hand, Shi Mengwan’s eyes reflected envy and a streak of gloom. She recalled her encounter with Zhan Haoze a few days ago.

Su Qingsang was fortunate. Huo Jinyao was hers and hers only. Huo Jinyao had no rivals for Su Qingsang’s affection either.

However, Zhan Haoze had another woman. Shi Mengwan was not the one by his side. Most importantly, Zhan Haoze had long forgotten their promise to each other.

As she shook off her thoughts, Shi Mengwan’s emotions changed immediately. Soon, she was again cracking jokes. historical

With her daughter, son-in-law and Shi Mengwan present, Xiang Caiping’s spirits greatly lifted.

What had happened in the past was irreversible. She would just make sure to pamper her daughter extra in the future.

Xiang Caiping placed the beef that had been cooked in the hotpot in Su Qingsang’s bowl and some vegetables in Shi Mengwan’s bowl. The atmosphere was harmonious and joyous.

Just when the mood was getting really good, the doorbell rang.

Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao’s eyes met and he placed a firm hand on her shoulder before getting up to open the door.

Standing outside the door was Su Chenghui and he obviously had not expected Huo Jinyao to be the one to open. He was momentarily surprised.

The dining room was joined to the living area. Su Qingsang was seated at the spot in the dining room that faced the living area. Espying Huo Jinyao standing and not moving at the door, she turned her head and spotted Su Chenghui at the entrance.

Frowning, she subconsciously turned to look at Xiang Caiping who was seated at her side.

The smell of the hotpot was strong and Su Chenghui naturally caught its whiff. “You...you are having dinner?”

Huo Jinyao lifted his jaw a little and said, “That’s right. We’re just sitting down to eat. Have you had dinner, Father?”

“I have not.” Su Chenghui answered without thinking. He felt a little awkward after answering. “Don’t mind me, you should go ahead.”

Su Qingsang felt like she was put in a spot. Logically, she should invite Su Chenghui in for dinner, but...

Xiang Caiping looked away to avoid seeing Su Chenghui. She still felt anguished.

It was Shi Mengwan who read the situation well and once again smoothed things over. “Hi, Uncle.”

As she spoke, she threw a look at Su Qingsang. Su Qingsang sighed and stood up, walking over to where Huo Jinyao was standing.

“Father, join us if you have not had dinner yet. However, I’m not sure if the food is to your liking. We’re having hotpot tonight.”

“Hotpot? Great, great.” Su Chenghui was caught off guard a bit. He glanced at Su Qingsang and decided to enter the house.

The dining table was rectangular and Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao originally sat together on one side while Xiang Caiping and Shi Mengwan sat on the other. At the head of the table was Sister Lu. There was only one seat left for Su Chenghui.

Su Chenghui sat down, and seated on his left was Su Qingsang. Xiang Caiping was seated on his right.

Some of the ingredients on the table had been put into the hotpot, but there were still many ingredients left. The hotpot with two separate soup bases was steaming.

The scene in front of Su Chenghui was something he had never experienced before.

He had risen in the Li Corporation to the position of general manager. Being with Li Qianxue enabled him to be promoted swiftly, and the people who dared to behave casually towards him dwindled.

In the Li Family, Old Master Li had high blood pressure, so his diet was light but healthy. When Su Chenghui was working, he would order lunch for himself alone.

As for the times when he did business socializing outside of work, the venues were all top-grade hotels and the people he interacted with were all elites or directors of the business world.

He had never experienced eating hotpot at a table of people sitting close to one another.

The steaming hotpot, despite the overpowering smell of the ingredients mixed with the soup, seemed surprisingly appetizing when he was enveloped in its aroma.

This is unfamiliar to him, like he was in another world.
