Chapter 332 - Something Seems Wrong
“I’m begging you. You can tell me now.”
Su Qingsang had “begged,” but Huo Jinyao shook his head. “Not sincere enough. I won’t say anything.”
“Huo Jinyao.”
“See, that doesn’t sound like begging.” While speaking, he turned to get a hairdryer.
“Tell me or not, whatever. Do you think I really don’t know?” Su Qingsang’s little temper flared up. “It’s not like my dad came here to tell her he would get divorced and marry her. So there is only one reason why she could be so sad.”
“What’s that?”
“Me.”
Su Qingsang went silent after saying it. Huo Jinyao could not see her like this, so he put the hairdryer in her hand and said, “Help me dry my hair.”
Su Qingsang looked into his eyes, knowing that he understood her. She stood up, took Huo Jinyao in front of the dressing table, plugged in the hair dryer, and began to dry his hair.
Her movements were very quiet and her voice was very light. In the deep sound of the hair drier, Huo Jinyao could still hear her clearly.
“I actually understood what happened yesterday. My mom always felt that she owed me a lot, that I had not been treated well all these years. After seeing my dad’s attitude, she couldn’t stand it.
“I think my dad must have come to explain, but she wouldn’t listen and blamed him for neglecting me all these years.
“My mom probably overthought the grievances I have been dealt. She’s feeling sorry for me.”
She went silent as she finished and just concentrated on drying Huo Jinyao’s hair, which was dry by now.
He turned to look at her. He suddenly took the hairdryer away from her and put it aside. Then, he pulled her body onto his lap.
“I thought you didn’t know.”
“How can it be like this?” Su Qingsang shook her head. “It was so easy that I could guess.”
“I thought you were going to say it was a mother-daughter thing.”
“No.” Su Qingsang shook her head again. “I still don’t have that feeling towards my mom. After all, we haven’t lived together for all our lives. I know what happened to her, and I know she is doing what is best for me. I don’t blame her, nor do I hate her.”
Hating people was so tiring that she didn’t like hating people. She just lacked care from her parents, she was still much better off than orphans.
Besides, she had two parents now. Even if her father was bad, she still had her mother.
She suddenly put her arms around Huo Jinyao’s neck and stared at him. “Huo Jinyao, let’s be nicer to my mom in the future, shall we?”
“Yes.” Huo Jinyao hugged her waist tightly and answered, “You can rest assured. Your mother is my mother, too. I will take good care of her.”
Su Qingsang looked at him. She suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the lips.
“Huo Jinyao.” Su Qingsang pressed her face to his chest and rubbed against his chest. “It’s so good to have you here,” she said.
In fact, she knew a lot of things. She also understood a lot about people. She could overcome a lot of difficulties and unhappiness by herself. She was used to it after having done so for so many years, fair or not.
Now, it was different. She had Huo Jinyao beside her. With him, the injustices and grievances of the past were nothing.
She rubbed her face against his chest again and felt relieved at the faint fresh smell of his body.
Huo Jinyao put his chin against the top of her hair, smelling the fragrance of her body. The corners of his mouth raised slightly.
As he thought of everything that had happened over the past few days, his eyes suddenly got wide. “Sweetheart, don’t you feel like something’s wrong?”
“What?”
