To My Dear Mr. Huo - Chapter 281

Chapter 281: Are You Displeased?

“Aunt.” Su Qingsang blinked her eyes and fought down the impulse to cry. “Next time, if we don’t come back on time, you don’t have to wait for us. Our timing is not fixed.”

“It’s okay. I don’t have other things to do anyway.” Xiang Caiping smiled amiably.

Su Qingsang knew it would be difficult to change her mind, but made a mental note to call next time if she could not get back on time.

Then, she realized that she hadn’t seen Xiang Caiping use a mobile phone at all and wondered whether to take her out and buy one. She could save her and Huo Jinyao’s numbers as emergency numbers so that she could call them when she needed someone.

Looking at the wrinkles under Xiang Caiping’s eyes, Su Qingsang told herself, that nothing was really unacceptable. Sooner or later, she would accept her as her mother.

“Qingsang? Are you displeased?”

“No, Aunt. I’m going to wash my hands and have dinner.”

“Yes. I’ll warm up the food.”

“Okay.”

Su Qingsang washed her face with cold water in the bathroom and came out with her mood back to normal.

Xiang Caiping wanted to chat with Su Qingsang since Huo Jinyao was not home, which was very rare.

“Qingsang, the other day you said that you had met Jinyao yourself. So how did you meet? Can you tell me about it?”

“Sure.” Su Qingsang wanted to tell her but suddenly did not know where to start. If she really wanted to tell the whole story, she had to start with Wei Lenan. In fact, she felt that she should be grateful for Wei Lenan’s infidelity. Otherwise, how would she have met a man as nice as Huo Jinyao?

This was fate, wasn’t it? The relationship between Huo Jinyao and her was fated.

When she saw Xiang Caiping’s worried eyes, she felt she could not tell her about everything that had passed.

She understated what happened without any relish. She was smiling lightly when she spoke of how good Huo Jinyao was to her.

Xiang Caiping was experienced. It was easy for her to tell that the smile was from her heart. After these days of observation, she got to know Huo Jinyao better.

“You are lucky to have met Huo Jinyao. He seems like a good man. I am relieved that you are doing well.” Xiang Caiping had worried about her daughter before she knew that she was living a happy life.

Su Qingsang nodded and felt delighted because she sensed the concern in Xiang Caiping’s words.

“Aunt, don’t worry. Huo Jinyao is kind to me.”

Though she was not in love with him yet, she believed it was only a matter of time.

“I can see that,” said Xiang Caiping. Her voice sounded emotional. “You are much luckier than me. Your father—”

She paused suddenly and looked at Su Qingsang with hesitation in her eyes.

“How has your father been these past years?”

After she had left Lin City, she had not paid any attention to this place or Su Chenghui’s news.

She told herself that the past belonged to the past. Once she left, she thought she should not care about how Su Chenghui was.

These days she kept seeing a face that resembled Su Chenghui’s, so she could not help but want to ask about him.

“My father?” Su Qingsang looked at Xiang Caiping, not surprised that she asked about him. She said, “I don’t know. I haven’t been back there for a long time. I don’t know how he is.”

“You haven’t seen your father in a long time?” Xiang Caiping sensitively caught the meaning hidden in Su Qingsang’s words.
