To My Dear Mr. Huo - Chapter 429
Chapter 429: Su Qingsang is also Mom’s Daughter
What happened in Lin City?
Su Yuxin was wondering the same thing. He wanted to know what was going on. He used to have a good home, but now it was not like home anymore.
Dad loved another woman and only married Mom to get revenge. Mother had been tricked into raising and loving someone else’s daughter.
His sister was still his sister, but it turned out she had a different mother.
And his full-blood sister had lived as an illegitimate child all along.
Su Yuxin was less than eighteen years old. He had been brought up by Old Master Li from an early age and then learned a lot of things by following Su Chenghui.
However, how could business stuff compare to dealing with family members?
He sat there without a word, and his whole person revealed a feeling of sorrow. Such an expression surprised Li Qianxue.
She had never seen Su Yuxin like this, and her eyes were full of worry. “Yuxin, are you alright?”
Su Yuxin suddenly reached out and hugged Li Qianxue. This move stunned her.
Since her son had been in elementary school, he has never been so close to her. Li Qianxue could only think that something must have happened at home.
“Yuxin, what happened? Tell me the truth.”
Su Yuxin’s voice was choked. He could not dare to imagine how she would react after she knew everything.
It was hard to say it. It was hard to tell.
“Yuxin?” The appearance of her son made Li Qianxue even more worried. She was going to wake Su Peizhen. “I’ll go wake your sister if you will not tell me.”
“Mom…” Su Yuxin grabbed Li Qianxue’s hand. “Don’t go yet.”
Li Qianxue looked at her son, her face full of doubts. “What’s going on? Tell me. ”
Su Yuxin’s lips were in a straight line, and he looked very serious.
When he put on this face, he looked very much like Su Chenghui. Li Qianxue frowned. “Is it your dad? What happened to your dad?”
“Mom…” Su Yuxin looked up at Li Qianxue. “Do you know that dad, that he…”
“Tell me. What happened to your father?”
Even if she were angry, Su Chenghui was still a man she had loved for so many years. She grabbed Su Yuxin’s arm: “Tell me! What happened to your dad?”
“Dad, he…” Su Yuxin didn’t know how to start. Looking at Li Qianxue, he wondered how much she could bear. “Mom… if, I mean if… If dad did something wrong to you, you…”
“Something wrong? What are you referring to?” Li Qianxue’s heart beat fast, very fast.
Caring for Chenghui has almost become an instinct. For more than twenty years, even if she did not want to, she couldn’t help but care.
“It’s my sister. I mean Su Qingsang.” Su Yuxin carefully looked at Li Qianxue’s face, having many perplexing thoughts. “It’s regarding my older sister Su Qingsang. Did you know she is actually…”
“You know?” Li Qianxue’s face looked a little strange, and she stood up straight, staring at Su Yuxin’s face. “Now even you know?”
Su Yuxin looked up at Li Qianxue. He was confused. “Mom, you knew?”
“Of course I knew.” Li Qianxue felt that there was a fire burning in her chest: “What do you think I came to America for?”
Su Yuxin suddenly stood up. “Mom… You, you actually knew?”
Li Qianxue’s face looked awful, but Su Yuxin could not sit still. “Mom, if you knew, why did you treat sister that way?”
“What did I do?” Li Qianxue looked at Su Yuxin, not understanding. “What have I done to her? How do you want me to treat her?”
“Don’t you want to acknowledge her? Don’t you want to be nice to her?”
Su Yuxin opened his eyes widely. He thought of the relationship between Li Qianxue and Su Peizhen. How could it be that Li Qianxue actually didn’t mind?
“Being nice to her? “Li Qianxue looked at her son in bewilderment and didn’t know what he meant.
“Su Yuxin, are you even my son? How dare you ask me to be nice to a child born from another woman?”
At this time, Li Qianxue’s chest started to hurt. Su Chenghui cheated on her and hurt her, and now even her own son was looking out for other people.
She felt like she couldn’t breathe and stared at Su Yuxin as if she was looking at her enemy.
Su Yuxin suddenly realized that Li Qianxue was talking about a completely different thing.
“Mom, it’s not like you think. Actually, she is your…”
“Su Yuxin.” The door suddenly opened, Su Peizhen stood at the entrance and stared at Su Yuxin angrily. “What the hell is going on with you?”
She walked through the door rapidly, raising her finger to point at Su Yuxin. “You flew thousands of miles to the United States to speak for another woman’s child? Have you ever thought about how would that make Mom feel?”
What Su Yuxin wanted to say got suddenly interrupted by Su Peizhen’s appearance. He looked at Su Peizhen, thinking of their sibling relationship over all these years.
He suddenly couldn’t say what he was going to say.
Su Peizhen was angry. She saw the look of confusion on Su Yuxin’s face, and then glanced at Li Qianxue, who was looking hurt. She was getting furious.
“Yuxin, are you even mom’s son? What kind of attitude is this, to talk to mom like that?”
“Are you crazy? How can you speak for Su Qingsang? Do you know she’s not even that woman’s child? You don’t even know where that bastard came from. How dare you quarrel with mom for her, you—”
“Shut up. Who is a bastard?” Su Yuxin could not help but interrupt Su Peizhen. “She is also Dad’s daughter. And mom’s daughter—”
” Li Qianxue raised her hand and slapped Su Yuxin in the face.
This was the first time she ever hit Su Yuxin. The numb feeling in her palm made her take a few steps back.
She glanced at her palm and then at Su Yuxin. There were tears in her eyes, but they did not fall.
She inhaled, thinking about what she had gone through for more than two decades. Thinking of how Su Chenghui took advantage of her love, again and again, to hurt her unscrupulously.
She thought of many things, one by one. However, all of this didn’t cause as much pain as her son standing for Su Qingsang.
“Mom…” Su Peizhen took a few steps forward, supporting Li Qianxue and glaring at Su Yuxin. ” Are you happy now? You really wanted to upset Mother, didn’t you?”
Su Yuxin’s face was hot. He did not even try to defend himself.
He looked at Li Qianxue and couldn’t say anything else.
“Mom… I just… don’t want you to regret anything.”
“I’m regretting it now.”
Li Qianxue actually regretted it from early on. However, she was a proud person, proud to the point that she was reluctant to turn back even if she knew she had gone the wrong way.
Her body was shaking, and she looked at Su Yuxin blankly, but there was a fire burning in her heart, burning senselessly.
“I regretted it a long time ago.”
She regretted having married Su Chenghui, regretted that she didn’t pull out from the marriage after finding that he would not love her.
She had wasted so many years. She was originally such a proud girl. She ended up totally under his control.
“Peizhen, let’s go.”
She didn’t want to see her son for the time being. She turned away and staggered a little bit.
“Mom…” Su Yuxin stepped forward. He could not let Li Qianxue leave like this. “Do you know what you have missed for so many years? Do you know that actually Dad?”
“Enough!” Li Qianxue closed her eyes. “If you still consider me as your mother, stop talking. I don’t want to hear from you now.”
Su Yuxin saw the door open and then close again in front of him. He became more and more depressed. As he stepped back weakly and sat on the bed, his whole soul was filled with confusion.
He stayed in the room for a long time. He didn’t know how long it had been. He suddenly stood up and walked outside.
Su Peizhen was already asleep. He entered her room and looked at her. This was his half-sister.
He should have turned and left, but he didn’t. He thought of what he knew.
Before the Lantern Festival, Su Qingsang would follow Huo Jinyao to Rong City. Only a few days were left.
If Su Qingsang really went to Rong City, Li Qianxue would lose her daughter. Her real daughter.
He stepped forward and walked to the bed. He bent down and gently pulled out a piece of Su Peizhen’s hair.
Clenching the hair, he turned to Li Qianxue’s room. There were three rooms in the Presidential Suite set aside for Li Qianxue.
He walked in and found out that his mother was still awake.
“Mom…
Li Qianxue was sitting on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and did not turn back when she heard his voice.
“So you know that I’m still your mother?”
“Of course I know.”
Su Yuxin stepped forward a few steps, squeezing Su Peizhen’s hair in the palm of his hand, and walked straight to Li Qianxue.
“Mom, I’m sorry. My attitude wasn’t very good today.”
Li Qianxue didn’t speak. Her heart was broken.
It started with the husband and now it was her son. She felt that she had a miserable life.
She often thought that it might be because her life started out too well. That’s why she had to have her share of despair and misery now.
“Mom, why don’t you sleep?” Su Yuxin didn’t have the heart to look at her. However, he knew very well that if some things were not spoken of, Li Qianxue might feel more hurt in the future.
“You go to sleep. I cannot sleep.”
Her life was a failure. Her husband did not love her and her son was against her. Li Qianxue wanted to cry, but she was so used to being strong that she couldn’t even do that.
Su Yuxin stood in front of her, looking at his mother’s loose hair.
He squatted down next to her. “Mom… Do you trust me?”
