“Don’t worry. Visiting your family isn’t a big deal for me, okay?” Huo Jinyao reached out and held her hand. “We’re married now, so of course your parents are now my parents and your family is my family. I will get along with them just fine.”

Su Qingsang didn’t believe a single word he said. She didn’t forget how Huo Jinyao poured a gla.s.s of wine on Su Peizhen.

Su Peizhen let it pa.s.s solely because it wasn’t appropriate for her to flip out at their wedding. Things wouldn’t go so easily when they would visit Su Qingsang’s parents the next day. She even had reason to suspect that it was Su Peizhen who told Su Chenghui to make the call and tell her to come home. Probably.

Staring at Huo Jinyao’s confident face, Su Qingsang felt helpless. “Promise me you’re not going to make trouble.”

“Don’t worry, I promise you I won’t.” Huo Jinyao smiled brightly. Make trouble? Of course, he wouldn’t. However, if anyone was to provoke him, there was no guarantee he would keep his promise.

Su Qingsang didn’t sleep very well that night. She dreamed of her childhood. She had lived in the Su family’s mansion for as long as she remembered. In fact, Su Qingsang had never understood why Li Qianxue had let her live in Su Mansion if she didn’t want her around.

Wouldn’t it have been easier to send her to an orphanage or to raise her outside of Su Mansion? Considering the Su family’s power and wealth, they could’ve easily gone with either option. However, Li Qianxue had raised her—an illegitimate daughter—in her own name and had given her a Su surname.

As for Su Qingsang’s living conditions, she obviously never even thought of comparing hers with Su Peizhen’s. The room where she had lived was at the end of the corridor and she was allowed to have meals with Li Qianxue.

There were people who took care of her everyday life, but she led a ghost-like existence in the Su Mansion.

There were things that Su Qingsang had never understood as a child but learned as she grew up.
