Chapter 325 - It Felt Weird (1/2)

She had been born out of wedlock and Su Chenghui had married Li Qianxue. Should he have been overtly good to her instead of neglecting her?

If he had been, maybe she would have been in a more awkward position in the Su Family. She probably would not have been able to bear Li Qianxue’s hatred or Su Peizhen’s and her brother’s bullying.

“I don’t think your mother overreacted today. I think your father was acting weirdly today.”

The sentiments they had witnessed were not those of lovers who had met after a long separation. Huo Jinyao felt something weird as he recalled Su Chenghui’s behavior today, but he could not figure out what was wrong.

“What was weird?” Su Qingsang had not noticed. She and Su Chenghui had never been close anyway. “He hasn’t seen my mother for decades and now they suddenly meet. Wasn’t it normal to be thrilled?”

He shouldn’t have been as thrilled as he was. Although Huo Jinyao was young, he had had dealings with various people over the years. He could tell the look in Su Chenghui’s eyes.

“What do you think was wrong?” Su Qingsang hadn’t figured it out after thinking for quite a while.

“All right. Maybe I’m thinking too much.” He had been in the business world every day, seeing schemes and intrigues of all kinds. He might have seen something that wasn’t there.

“You were thinking too much,” said Su Qingsang. Then, her face suddenly changed. “I’m actually a little worried now.”

“Worried about what?”

“I thought my dad would never find out that my mom was back. Now, he just met her face-to-face. Seeing his behavior today, I think he might make some trouble. The peace in the Su Family of the last few decades is about to be disturbed.”

With that, her life might become chaotic. Su Qingsang didn’t like this feeling.

“What’s there to worry about?” Huo Jinyao pulled her body into his arms and said, “When it happens, I will take you and Mom back to Rong City. If you’re not in Lin City, they won’t bother you.”

Su Qingsang looked at him and seriously considered the feasibility of his words. “That might work fine. My mother is used to staying in Rong City anyway. I think it will be easy for her to settle down there.”

“Sweetheart.” Huo Jinyao suddenly put his hand to his chest. “My heart hurts,” he said.
