Chapter 430 - DNA Maternity Confirmation (1/2)

“What are you trying to say?” Li Qianxue still didn’t turn around. Her voice was a little hoarse, sounding as if it was suppressed. “If you’re trying to say something in Su Qingsang’s defense, you don’t have to.”

After so many years, the fact that she had never dealt with her directly was already her biggest expression of tolerance.

If she were expected to treat Su Qingsang like her own biological daughter, she’d be unable to do it. She was not an all-forgiving saint.

“Mom. I’m not trying to defend her. I’m just asking you, do you trust me?”

“What are you trying to say?” Li Qianxue finally turned around. She looked at Su Yuxin, not knowing what he meant.

Su Yuxin stretched out a hand and placed it on Li Qianxue’s shoulder. “Mom, there are certain things that I know you’ll never believe even if I tell you. So, I’ll just skip that process.”

As he spoke, he plucked a strand of hair from Li Qianxue’s head.

“Su Yuxin, what are you doing?” Li Qianxue’s scalp stung a little. She couldn’t help but give Su Yuxin a glare. “What are you trying to do?”

“Nothing.” Su Yuxin held the two precious strands of hand in his palm. He stood. “Mom, go get some rest. I’m heading out for a bit.”

“It’s late. What are you going out for?”

“Mom.” Su Yuxin took two steps back. He looked at Li Qianxue, his gaze expressing a little reluctance.

He knew that when the results were out, Li Qianxue might be the first one that wouldn’t be able to accept it. She might even break down and go completely insane.

However, he was even more afraid that it would be too late when Li Qianxue finally knew the truth. He was afraid that it would be too late for her to make up for all those years when the time came.

Knowing Li Qianxue’s character, she wouldn’t be able to take it.

“I have something to do. Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”

It’s a shame that you don’t, he thought.

Li Qianxue watched as her son walked out. Her scalp no longer stung. She stared at her hair, then shifted her gaze towards the direction Su Yuxin had left in.

What was Su Yuxin planning?

Now that there was something looming ahead, Li Qianxue didn’t have the mood to enjoy herself with Su Peizhen the next day.

The two of them simply strolled around for a bit, then decided to book their flight home.

Before they left, Li Qianxue called Su Yuxin. He was not seen since he left last night. Now that they were about to head home, she wanted to ask if he would like to come along with them.

The call to Su Yuxin’s phone didn’t get through. Li Qianxue’s brows furrowed. Su Peizhen took away the phone from her hands.

“Maybe he has already gone home. This Yuxin, I used to think that he was pretty thoughtful. His attitude is getting a little out of hand lately.”

Li Qianxue remained silent. It was very rare for her not to reply to Su Peizhen.

She had a strange feeling ever since the night Su Yuxin plucked a strand of hair from her head.

Something was about to happen, her instincts were nagging. Something that was related to her.

However, she simply had no idea what it could be.

“Mom?” Su Peizhen linked her arm through hers. “Let’s just reserve three seats. If he wants to go back, he’ll come with us. If he doesn’t, we’ll just go ahead and not wait for him. He’s old enough to take care of himself, anyway.”

Li Qianxue glanced at her daughter and did not object.

She reserved three seats, ready to return to her home country. The tickets were reserved for tomorrow evening, so they still had the time to explore around some more.

Before they left, Li Qianxue finally got a hold on Su Yuxin. He said that he had something urgent to deal with, but would return with them.

Li Qianxue hung up without a lift in her spirits. She could feel it. Her son was all grown up. He had his own thoughts and opinions.

The only person left that was close to her was her daughter.

…

Lin City.

Su Qingsang placed the pillow behind Xiang Caiping’s back. “Mom, how is it? Do you feel uncomfortable?”

“You’re giving me such thick cushioning behind my back. How would I be uncomfortable?”

Throughout this entire stay in the hospital, Xiang Caiping doted on her daughter more the more time she spent with Su Qingsang.

“Mom. You might not have any major problems doing simple actions involving your hip now, but you still have to be careful. You have to come to the hospital for routine check-ups in the future and undergo rehabilitation.”

“We can discuss it in detail after going to Rong City.”

“Have you reserved the flight tickets?” Xiang Caiping felt a little relieved when she thought about returning to Rong City.

They went full circle. From Lin City to Rong City. Now, from Rong City back to Lin City.

“Yeah. Jinyao got it all settled.”

She glanced at Huo Jinyao as she spoke. He smiled as he walked to the other side, helping Xiang Caiping get up.

“Mom, don’t worry about the flights. They’re taken care of already.

He got his assistant to book the flights. When the time came, there would be two doctors and two nursing assistants coming along. Xiang Caiping’s hip hasn’t fully healed. There were still many things to look out for.

“See? I came here to look after you guys, but now you two are looking after me instead.”

“Mom, listen to yourself. I don’t like hearing things like that.”

Su Qingsang sat her down in the wheelchair. “You’re my mother. If I don’t take care of you, who would?”

Xiang Caiping spoke no more, feeling the emotions creep up on her instead.
