Chapter 402 - That’s Not My Baby (1/2)

When her heart leaped, she felt as if every cell of her body, every ounce of her blood had been beating for the man named Huo Jinyao.

She found that she liked him more and more. She was falling in love with him.

How could such a perfect man even exist in this world?

She didn’t like him for his good looks or for his wealthy family. She liked him for how nice he was.

He protected her, cherished her, loved her family and her. He took care of Xiang Caiping’s every meal. He consulted dietitians and doctors for that purpose.

Xiang Caiping was bored in the hospital. After all, she wasn’t able to move or do anything. Huo Jinyao came to visit her whenever he had time and tried his best to make her happy.

Thanks to Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao, Xiang Caiping had been in a good mood during her days at the hospital.

Huo Jinyao did all that for her because she was Su Qingsang’s mother. He loved Su Qingsang, so he took good care of her mother.

“What’s wrong? Isn’t the soup good?” Huo Jinyao glanced at Su Qingsang questioningly, as he noticed that she had been holding the bowl without eating the soup.

“It’s good. It’s just a little too hot.”

“Is it?” It had been a while since the soup was delivered to the hospital from ChaoWen Courtyard. It should have cooled down long ago.

“Not anymore,” Su Qingsang smiled. “Let’s eat.”

After lunch, Xiao Ning tidied the table, and Su Qingsang spent a while chatting with Xiang Caiping and Huo Jinyao. After that, Xiang Caiping felt tired.

As she fell asleep, Su Qingsang held Huo Jinyao’s hand, stood up and led him outside.

“Are you heading back to your company?”

“Mmm,” Huo Jinyao nodded and added, “I have two meetings to attend to this afternoon.”

Su Qingsang didn’t ask any further questions. She knew nothing about his business anyway. “You seem tired these days. Maybe you should spend the coming weekend at home and get some sleep.”

Huo Jinyao stopped walking, looked at her and said, “Are you worried about me?”

Su Qingsang blushed slightly. She turned her face away and said, “No. I’m worried about myself. You come here every day. It’s a bit too much, to be honest.”

“Too much? Your eyes glowed when you saw me.”

“That’s not true,” Su Qingsang would not admit that. “My eyes glow no matter who I see.”

“Including Su Chenghui?” He heard that Su Chenghui came to the hospital twice, but Su Qingsang didn’t let him see Xiang Caiping.

Hearing that name, Su Qingsang’s expression changed immediately. “Yes,” she said, “I need to be extra careful around him. I can’t let him see my mother.”

“I think you hate him.”

“Not exactly. It’s just that my mom doesn’t want to see him.”

She didn’t hate Su Chenghui. No matter how awful that man was, he was still her father. She still gave him basic respect.

Huo Jinyao stayed silent and looked at Su Qingsang. Soon, another thing crossed his mind, “Grandpa called me.”

“Old Master Huo?”

“He wants me to bring you back to Rong City for the New Year.”
