To My Dear Mr. Huo - Chapter 409
Chapter 409: Can You Tell Me Who My Mother Is?
Once he started talking, he could easily make a mistake, and Su Qingsang could grasp something from his words. He had made a misstep once. He could not let that happen again.
Su Chenghui didn’t say anything. He couldn’t possibly stay completely silent, though. Sensing Su Qingsang’s aggressive attitude, he suddenly started feeling a little angry.
“I’m going to say this one more time. I don’t know what you’re talking about. If you are not Xiang Caiping’s daughter, whose daughter are you?”
Perhaps Su Qingsang was lying. If she wasn’t Xiang Caiping’s daughter, why did she become so close to Xiang Caiping during the past few months?
They never lived together before. Xiang Caiping was never there for her when she was a little girl. If she were sure that Xiang Caiping wasn’t her mother, she would have walked away from her long ago.
Su Qingsang stared at his face. She wasn’t surprised by Su Chenghui’s reaction.
She gave a sigh and said, “Are you wondering why I didn’t tell her that I’m not her daughter, while I clearly know about it?”
Su Chenghui didn’t respond to Su Qingsang. He did feel that he knew less and less about this daughter of his.
“Because I really see her as my mother, even though we are not related.”
Su Qingsang lowered her head while speaking.
She was wearing the sweater that Xiang Caiping made for her, and the necklace that Xiang Caiping gave her.
The sausages that Xiang Caiping prepared for her were still hanging on her balcony. Every single morning, she heard Xiang Caiping’s gentle and warm words.
That was the mother’s love that she never had before.
She didn’t want to lose it, even though she was clearly aware of the fact that Xiang Caiping wasn’t really her mother.
Even more difficult for her was to hurt Xiang Caiping. Xiang Caiping was so nice to her. If she found out that her daughter, whom she cared so much about, wasn’t really her daughter, how devastated would she be?
Su Qingsang didn’t have the courage to think about it, let alone do it. She didn’t want to break the heart of an innocent woman.
“Dad, can you tell me who I am, and who my mother is? Who is my father? Whose daughter am I? Who brought me to this world?”
“Su Qingsang.” Su Chenghui looked at his daughter. For the first time, he seemed helpless on his face. “Again, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Su Qingsang looked back at him, coldly.
She wasn’t stupid. Su Chenghui’s attitude was very weird. Her brain worked fast. Many details and possibilities flashed across her mind.
“It’s obvious that I’m not Xiang Caiping’s daughter. You can’t deny that. If you want proof, I can do a DNA test.”
Su Qingsang looked Su Chenghui in the eyes, and said word by word, “The test result can’t be faked. It will tell with complete certainty whether I’m Xiang Caiping’s daughter or not.”
Su Chenghui’s expression shifted. However, he calmed back down in just a second.
Su Qingsang had her eyes fixed on his face, so she wouldn’t miss any slight expression of his.
“Now, I really want to know if I’m your daughter or not. Am I?”
Su Chenghui finally regained some of his confidence. “Su Qingsang, stop talking nonsense. If you’re not my daughter, whose daughter are you?”
Was he so generous as to raise someone else’s daughter?
Hearing himself, Su Chenghui realized that he had said something he shouldn’t have. As he thought, he saw Su Qingsang curve her lips in a knowing smile.
Finally, she seemed to have unearthed Su Chenghui’s secret.
“I’m your daughter?” Su Qingsang held his gaze. “Really? Are you sure?”
“Su Qingsang, mind your attitude.”
Su Qingsang didn’t ask more questions. The angry and irritated look on Su Chenghui’s face made her believe what he said. That made sense. Which man would be willing to raise someone else’s child?
So, she was Su Chenghui’s daughter, wasn’t she?
She nodded and looked at Su Chenghui mercilessly. “I’m your daughter, but not Xiang Caiping’s. Therefore, there was another woman in your life. My Mom doesn’t know about her, nor does Aunt Li. Am I right?”
“Su Qingsang, are you done talking?” Su Chenghui couldn’t bear listening to her. What kind of man did Su Qignsang think he was? Another woman? That sounded awful.
“You betrayed my Mom and Aunt Li. You never loved my Mom.”
In fact, she could easily guess that Su Chenghui didn’t love Xiang Caiping. If he did, the two of them would have been together a long time ago.
She refused to believe that the Li Family tore the two of them apart. She had lived with Old Master Li and Li Qianxue for quite a long while. The Li Family couldn’t possibly force Su Chenghui into his marriage with Li Qianxue if he didn’t want that.
“Su Qingsang,” Su Chenghui didn’t know what to say, so he simply said, “Shut up.”
She was only a child in his eyes. What could she know about this business?
Su Qingsang smiled meaningfully, and asked, “Does Aunt Li know about it?”
She always felt that Su Chenghui was an irresponsible man. It turned out that he was even worse than she thought.
He kept in touch with Xiang Caiping while he was with Li Qianxue, and at the same time, another mysterious woman was in his life.
It was the first time Su Qingsang learned that Su Chenghui was capable of that.
“Su Qingsang, shut up.”
Su Chenghui pulled a long face. He made a step forward and seemed to lose his temper right away. “Have you said enough yet?”
“No,” Su Qingsang looked at his angry face and showed no sign of stepping back. “I’m not finished yet. I have the right to know who my real mother is, don’t I?”
Su Chenghui was stunned a little at first, then abruptly turned his face away and said, “That’s not something that you need to worry about.”
“Not something I need to worry about?” Su Qingsang wanted to laugh. “What do I need to worry about then? Dad, I know you don’t like me, but I’ve been calling you ‘Dad’ for over twenty years after all. Now, all I want is the truth, the answer. Can’t you even give me that?”
“There is no answer. You’ve been overthinking.”
“No answer? Well, maybe I should be wondering if I’m your daughter or not.”
“Su Qingsang, watch your attitude. I’ve told you that what you said is nonsense. If you’re not my daughter, whose daughter are you?”
“Alright, since you said that I’m your daughter, let me ask you something. Where is my Mom? Where is she? Who is she?”
“Su Qingsang,” Su Chenghui felt so annoyed. It didn’t happen often, but this time, he was angry because of Su Qingsang’s unwanted attitude, “Who gave you the right to be like this? Who allowed you to talk to me like this?”
