Chapter 421 - He Was So Cruel (1/2)

Would she be able to accept that? What would she do? Would Xiang Caiping accept Su Peizhen as her daughter, or be disappointed because Su Qingsang wasn’t her daughter?

Both Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao stayed silent. Su Qingsang was thinking about how Xiang Caiping took care of her during the past few months.

She really could not go to Li Qianxue and call her mother, as if it was not a big deal. First, there was never affection between her and Li Qianxue; second, Xiang Caiping was still in the hospital. She almost paralyzed.

Su Peizhen was the one who did that to Xiang Caiping.

If one day, Su Chenghui told Xiang Caiping all the truth and let her know that the person who almost killed her was her daughter, how sad would she be?

That was the reason why Su Qingsang didn’t want to think about that.

She didn’t care how Su Chenghui, Li Qianxue, and the other Su Family people might feel.

However, after spending a few months together with Xiang Caiping, she now cared for her. She couldn’t hurt Xiang Caiping. She didn’t have the heart to do that.

She couldn’t do it.

Huo Jinyao was still looking at her, waiting for her answer. Su Qingsang sighed silently. What could the answer be? What answer did she need?

“Let’s go to the hospital.”

Huo Jinyao heard her words with no surprise. The Su Qingsang he knew wouldn’t so easily decide to acknowledge Li Qianxue as her mother.

“Okay, let’s go to the hospital.”

“Huo Jinyao.”

Su Qingsang called his name when he started the car. He stopped to look at her and found that she was still staring at the road.

“This will end here.”

“Darling?”

“My mother is Xiang Caiping, not Li Qianxue or anyone else. There’s no revenge or any dirty tricks.”

Huo Jinyao paused briefly. He was not surprised to hear that decision of Su Qingsang.

He also knew that was a hard decision to make. She made it anyway, almost at once.

“Darling, do you really know what you are giving up?”

She gave up on everything that the Li Family and Su Family had, and the chance of becoming a legitimate daughter of a very wealthy family. Recently, the Li Family was growing richer than the Qiu Family again, because of their cooperation with Tianyu.

Their stock price went higher and higher, and so did the value of their company.

Su Qingsang gave that up without hesitation.

“I do,” Su Qingsang turned to look at him and said, “I know what I’ve given up. I won’t regret.”

Without Li Qianxue, she still had Xiang Caiping.

Without the Li Family, she still had Huo Jinyao.

She didn’t need much money. Being rich or not, that was the same for her.

Huo Jinyao wrapped his arms around her, tightly.

“Let’s go. Mom might get anxious if we make her wait for too long.”

“Okay.”

Huo Jinyao put his hands back on the steering wheel. Su Qingsang looked outside the window and thought of something that happened when she was little.

She saw Su Peizhen held in Li Qianxue’s arms. Li Qianxue called her ‘baby’, again and again.

She saw that and wanted the same so much. She really wanted to be held by Li Qianxue like that.

However, Li Qianxue gave her a cold glance. The look in her eyes was completely different from what she showed Su Peizhen.

“I’m not your mother,” she said.

Back then, she was sad, but she didn’t hate Li Qianxue.

The older she became, the more clearly she understood it. She never hated Li Qianxue but felt a slight pity for her.

No woman would want to raise the child of her husband and nobody knows who.

Over and over again, Su Qingsang tried to understand Li Qianxue’s situation, to feel her pain. Wasn’t that because of the blood connection between them?

Su Qingsang suffered a slight headache. She clearly knew that no matter how much she didn’t want to believe what Huo Jinyao said, deep down, she already did.

She had tried to feel the same thing from Xiang Caiping but failed.

She was touched by what Xiang Caiping did for her. She was very grateful for Xiang Caiping. However, no matter how much time she spent with Xiang Caiping, she couldn’t feel that natural closeness for her.

She once felt that for Li Qianxue. When she was little, she always wanted to be close to Li Qianxue.

Li Qianxue was always cold to her, but she was always trying.

Back then, Su Peizhen laughed at her. What that girl said was true.

She did wish that Li Qianxue could care about her and spare her some love. Before, she thought that she was only jealous of Su Peizhen because the latter had a mother. But why did she never long for Su Chenghui’s attention?

Su Qingsang closed her eyes and thought of something else.

Li Qianxue didn’t know the truth yet. The truth should stay unknown to her. She should keep seeing Su Peizhen as her daughter.

If she found out the truth, she would collapse.

As for Su Chenghui, Su Qingsang believed that she was able to make him keep the secret forever.

“What are you thinking about?”

“Nothing,” Su Qingsang shook her head. Sensing the concern in Huo Jinyao’s eyes, Su Qingsang sighed and said, “Huo Jinyao, I’m thinking that since Li Qianxue doesn’t know about the truth yet, we should never let her know.”
