Chapter 391 - How Do You Want To Punish Her? (2/2)
What reason could Xiang Caiping possibly have to forgive Su Peizhen? “I would like to remind you that in j.a.pan, my mom gave Su Peizhen a slap because she called me an illegitimate child and the daughter of a homewrecker.”
“I know that that slap made Su Peizhen do all this. Nevertheless, Dad, ask yourself this — is my mom really a homewrecker? Who was the one who made me an illegitimate child?”
Su Chenghui couldn’t utter a single word. He had always thought that Su Qingsang was a good-natured person, and clearly did not expect her to lose her temper and patience one day.
“Dad, I don’t need you to treat me well. I don’t need you to treat my mom very well either. You’re married and have another family. I understand all of that. Your family is your family, but I have my family too.”
“Su Peizhen got a slap from my mother. You and Auntie — one by one, you paid her a visit, wanting to hold my mom accountable. Now, how about my mom? She was. .h.i.t by a car because of Su Peizhen. Does Su Peizhen really think that she can just gloss over this matter without facing the consequences?”
Su Qingsang’s words were full of wrath. Even if Su Peizhen wasn’t mainly responsible for the accident, she still had to be held accountable, right?
“I’ve hit her already.” When Su Chenghui recalled the teary look Su Peizhen still had on her face on the way home, his heart ached.
No matter how mad he was at Su Peizhen, she was still the daughter that he had adored for many years. “I’ve punished her already. She knows that she was wrong.”
“A murderer could admit that they’re wrong after killing somebody.” Su Qingsang wouldn’t just drop the case. “The law would still consider them guilty.”
“Qingsang—” Su Chenghui didn’t know where to start. He had a bellyful of things to say, but he couldn’t utter a single word.
“Please get out of here. I don’t want to see you.”
He was disloyal and fickle-minded. He was loyal neither to Li Qianxue nor to Xiang Caiping. He said he loved Xiang Caiping, yet he married Li Qianxue. He said he preferred Li Qianxue, but he couldn’t forget about Xiang Caiping.
Now that Xiang Caiping was in distress, he couldn’t even get proper justice for her. Su Qingsang didn’t think so before, but now she felt that her father was truly an irresponsible douchebag.
“Qingsang—”
“Get out.” Su Qingsang’s voice was even shriller than before. “Neither my mom nor I want to see you.”
Su Chenghui remained silent. He turned the lunchboxes over in his hands and set them down on the table at a corner.
“Qingsang. No matter how angry you are, you still have to eat. As for what happened to your mom, I’m very sorry about it. But don’t you worry, I’ll definitely teach Peizhen a good lesson.”
Su Qingsang remained silent. She didn’t believe that Su Chenghui had it in him to punish Su Peizhen at all, but she was unwilling to argue with him further.
Su Chenghui left, leaving only Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao in the ward. Su Qingsang stared at the lunchboxes, not touching them at all.
The sky outside darkened. Xiang Caiping had not yet woken up. There were many tubes hooked to her body, and this sight made Su Qingsang’s heart ache profoundly.
She had not eaten lunch for she made her way back as fast as she could after she got the news. She was extremely hungry and thirsty, yet she did not have the slightest appet.i.te for anything.
“Huo Jinyao.”
Huo Jinyao stood by her side with an arm around her shoulders, giving her some silent support.
“Sometimes, I really wished that Su Chenghui wasn’t my father,”
Huo Jinyao didn’t reply to that. He simply couldn’t understand the logic behind Su Chenghui’s actions today.
If Su Chenghui didn’t love Xiang Caiping anymore, why was he so angry when he learned that Su Peizhen was the one who harmed her?
