Chapter 397: You Want A Divorce? I Agree

After listening to this for a long time, Su Yuxin finally made some sense out of it. Of course, he was aware that his father once had a woman he held dear to his heart, but he never expected that she would return.

Old Master Li was pretty exhausted when he reached this point. Unwilling to stay there any longer, he stood up.

“Chenghui, our time on this earth is extremely limited. I really hope that you know what you want and what is most important to you.”

Su Chenghui remained silent. Of course, he knew that the most important thing in his life was revenge. Besides exacting revenge, nothing else mattered.

Yes, that’s right. He didn’t regret it. Not at all.

Li Qianxue glanced at the direction her daughter had walked out to and then watched as Old Master Li shuffled back to his room. Finally, she shifted her gaze towards Su Chenghui, her expression icy.

She didn’t care if her father was still around, and her voice was full of fatigue. “Su Chenghui, if you feel that your grievances aren’t gone yet and you still want to vent them — bring it on. Peizhen and Yuxin are your children too. If you feel that you still want to be with that woman now, you can file for a divorce. Not only would I agree to it, but I’ll also guarantee that whatever you’ve hustled for with your own ability will remain yours. However, I don’t want whatever happened today to repeat itself again. You know me. I am very protective. I can tolerate almost anything else. But I will not watch you bully my children.”

When she finished her sentence, Li Qianxue didn’t spare another look for Su Chenghui. She got up and went upstairs to comfort Su Peizhen.

“Dad?”

Su Chenghui did not speak. He just sat there motionlessly. After all these years, he realized that this was the first time Li Qianxue had ever mentioned a divorce.

In the past, no matter what he said or did, Li Qianxue would never utter this word.

So, all it took for her to be willing to file for divorce was to have Xiang Caiping return? Then what would those twenty-odd years of uphill effort amount to?

“Dad?” Su Yuxin called out one more time.

Su Chenghui raised his head as if he just realized Su Yuxin was there. “You’re back?”

“Well.” Not mentioning that he was back earlier, Su Yuxin gave it some thought and decided that he wanted to probe a little further. “Dad, what happened to my sister? What did she do? Aren’t you the one who always defends her?”

Su Chenghui did not speak but looked at Su Yuxin instead, and noticed that in a mere few weeks, his son seemed to have grown taller.

This was his son. The son he had with Li Qianxue.

This child, like Su Qingsang, did not receive all his love and care as Su Peizhen did. However, that did not affect his brilliance at all.

He was number one in every subject. First in his class, first in his year. He had a pleasant personality. Totally unlike Su Peizhen, he seemed more like Su Qingsang—

Is this really the power of blood?

“Dad?” He found that Su Chenghui was distracted again. Su Yuxin was unable to get much out of him. When he thought of how his grandfather had mentioned paying Huo Jinyao a visit, he decided he would most probably tag along as well.

...

Su Qingsang couldn’t have known that the Su family had been bickering amongst themselves. After sleeping for the entire day, Xiang Caiping seemed perkier at night.

Though she was still unable to get up, at least her face wasn’t that pale anymore.

Su Qingsang only realized Huo Jinyao was very talented in selecting caretakers after the new nurse, Ning Xiaomei, was selected for the job. She wasn’t just strong — she was a great person to talk to.

She was very knowledgeable about anything in Lin City. She even knew about the old places that had only been developed recently.

After a brief conversation, Xiang Caiping was already very satisfied with her.

When Huo Jinyao came to the ward after he was done with work, Su Qingsang gave him a genuinely appreciative smile.

“Jinyao, you’re here.”

Xiang Caiping looked at Huo Jinyao with eyes reflecting contentment, but her heart ached for him. “You’re busy with work. You don’t have to come to visit me at night. I have Qingsang and Xiao Ning here.”

“Mom, I’m here to see you.” Huo Jinyao stood by the bed. “It’s great that you’re awake. If you weren’t, I’m afraid this entire ward would be flooded by somebody’s tears.”

“Huo Jinyao, what’re you talking about?” Su Qingsang glared at him. “I didn’t cry.”

“Did I say names?” Huo Jinyao raised his brows, looking innocent. “I didn’t say it was you. Why’re you so quick to admit it?”

“You—” Su Qingsang turned back to Xiang Caiping. “Mom, don’t you believe him.”

Xiang Caiping chuckled and grabbed Qingsang’s hand. “I don’t believe him. I believe you.”

Su Qingsang blinked at Huo Jinyao. “See that? I’m truly my mother’s daughter. Hmph.” historical

“Mom, you have to do something about this.” Huo Jinyao displayed a sad look. “I, her husband, hardly get any of her attention nowadays.”

“You’ve never caught her attention in the first place.” Xiang Caiping watched as Huo Jinyao’s face paled. She quickly added, “You’ve caught her heart.”

Su Qingsang blushed. She never expected Xiang Caiping to say those last words. Huo Jinyao brimmed with satisfaction.

She watched Su Qingsang with eyes full of love. This situation gave Xiang Caiping more hope and motivation to continue living.

She wanted to recover and regain her mobility faster. She wanted to care for her daughter and her future grandchild.

The atmosphere in the ward became much livelier after Huo Jinyao’s arrival.

Huo Jinyao could finally heave a huge sigh of relief. It was great that Xiang Caiping was awake.

After chatting with Xiang Caiping a little more, Huo Jinyao left Xiao Ning to look after her, then headed back home with Su Qingsang to drop her luggage and pack some clothes.

Xiang Caiping made her go home and have some rest before coming to visit again. “Even if your body can take it, my heart aches to see you torturing yourself like this every night. It’s better if you go home and take a rest. Come over tomorrow morning.”

Su Qingsang couldn’t fight them both off, so she decided to head home.

However, she woke up early the next morning. She searched the web for a recipe of mild, nourishing porridge and brought it to the hospital.

Huo Jinyao dropped Su Qingsang off at the hospital first and then proceeded to his office.

If he wanted to return to Rong City to develop his business, he had to hand over many things in Lin City to others. He was quite busy.

However, he never expected that somebody would be waiting for him already the moment he entered his office.

“Old Master Li.”

Huo Jinyao noticed Old Master Li seated on the sofa in his office. He wasn’t alone — Su Yuxin was there as well.

Su Yuxin was respectful. He stood up and greeted him as his brother in law. Huo Jinyao responded accordingly, then glanced at Yang Wenchang standing behind him. “Please make arrangements to postpone the meeting for half an hour.”

“Alright.”

As the door closed, Huo Jinyao walked to the other end of the sofa and sat. “Old Master Li, you should’ve just made a phone call to reach me. Why did you come all the way here yourself?”

He glanced at Su Yuxin. “You too, Yuxin. Your grandfather is old. Why didn’t you advise him against taking the trouble?”

“Because there isn’t no need to.” Old Master Li observed the etiquette of lighthearted pleasantries. “I might be old, but my elderly joints and legs are still able to move about.”

“Of course. You might be old, Old Master Li, but you’re strong and healthy. Who would dare to say otherwise?”

“Let’s skip the formalities.” Old Master Li waved it off. “The reason I’m here today is not to get you to flatter me. I’m here to plead for your help.”
