To My Dear Mr. Huo - Chapter 106
Chapter 106: The Daughter Should Pay Her Mother’s Debt
Su Chenghui looked at Li Qianxue’s face. The gentleness and elegance that normally showed through his face were replaced by a coldness he had never exhibited before.
“You can just ask your dad himself what he told me.”
“I am asking YOU now. What’s with that attitude of yours?” Li Qianxue was furious at seeing him like this. “How could you talk to your wife like this?”
“I’ve always been like this. Didn’t you already know that?”
Su Chenghui was nearly fifty years old, but he looked like he was forty because he was so well-maintained. He had an excellent reputation, both as a businessman and as a man. That a front for other people.
Li Qianxue’s chest heaved violently. Yes, she had already known. She had learned twenty-six years ago.
“Su Chenghui, let me remind you that it was I who gave you everything you have now.”
“Thanks for reminding me.” Su Chenghui looked indifferent. “I don’t mind if you want to take it back.”
“Su Chenghui.” His indifferent tone successfully hurt Li Qianxue.
“Get out of the way.” Su Chenghui passed her and headed directly for the bathroom as if he had not noticed Li Qianxue twisted facial expression.
Li Qianxue tried hard to restrain herself, but failed. “Su Chenghui, I am telling you, I will never take it back. You can’t even dream about getting a divorce. In this life, I will be Mrs. Su until I die. You’ll never, ever be with that woman.”
Su Chenghui stopped for a moment. Then, he turned around to look at Li Qianxue. “Then I’m telling you, in this life, the title of “Mrs. Su” is all you’ll get.”
Li Qianxue watched Su Chenghui walk into the bathroom, processing his words. She had already realized the truth they revealed long ago. Anger and resentment surged up in her, but so did sadness.
Who would have thought that the great Lady Li, who had once been so loved and indulged, would go on to live in such an unhappy marriage with Su Chenghui?
She had conceived Su Peizhen because she had tried to and Su Yuxin was an accident after Su Chenghui had been drunk. In addition to those two times, Su Chenghui had not even touched her. For more than twenty years, they slept in the same bed as strangers.
And all this was because of that woman. Because of her—
That woman was not in Lin City anymore, but her daughter did annoy her from time to time.
She pondered Su Peizhen’s words and thought of that woman, who had been an obstacle between Su Chenghui and her for more than 20 years—
Su Qingsang, Su Qingsang. Don’t blame me if you can’t behave yourself. Blame your shameless mother, who gave birth to you, but left you. The daughter should pay her mother’s debt.
…
When Su Qingsang returned home, she found that the clouds had already dispersed. She ran into the balcony excitedly and looked at the moon in a daze.
Huo Jinyao went into the kitchen, poured a glass of water, and put it in her hands.
“Thank you.” It had taken an hour to get back from the Su Mansion and she was really a little thirsty.
Looking at her profile in the moonlight, Huo Jinyao put his arms around her waist. Su Qingsang did not look back. The atmosphere was so good that she did not want to break it.
“The moon is so full tonight.”
“Is it?” Huo Jinyao looked up at the sky and said, “Doesn’t it look the same every year?”
“Yes. The moon is the same every year.” People change, though.
“What is it? Are you unhappy?” Huo Jinyao recalled that Su Qingsang had disappeared for a while when he was playing Go with Grandfather Li today. “Did someone from that family bully you tonight?”
