Chapter 550: You Have Great Tolerance, Mrs. Huo

“Aunt... I meant your mother... She ——” Su Qingsang found it difficult to speak her mind, so she couldn’t finish her sentence.

She had never once thought that a mother would treat her child like that. “Can I ask you why your mother does not like you?”

There was a sudden silence, and Su Qingsang could hear his breathing becoming heavier on the other end of the line.

She suddenly realized that she might have said something wrong to him. She shouldn’t have asked that question.

Huo Jinyao started speaking just as she was about to explain her question further. Although Su Qingsang was unable to see his expression through the phone, she could clearly hear the nonchalance in his voice.

“If she doesn’t like me, then she just doesn’t like me. What reason could there be?”

“...”

With her heart aching a little, Su Qingsang firmly believed that Huo Jinyao was definitely not someone who would betray his own elder brother and younger sister just to survive.

“But, Jinyao, I actually heard ——”

“Darling, Wenchang has brought me my lunch. I am quite hungry, so I am going to eat first.”

“Alright.” Su Qingsang couldn’t finish the rest of her sentence. The rest of her words were stuck in her throat like a stone.

She knew that after today, she would never have the courage to ask him about it again.

“Huo Jinyao.”

“Yes?”

“It’s nothing. I am going to eat as well.”

“Alright.”

Huo Jinyao hung up immediately, without saying another word.

Listening to the beeping sound on the phone after the line was cut, Su Qingsang felt heartbroken once again.

She closed her eyes and tried to suppress the wave of emotions she was feeling.

Forget it. Since he did not want to speak about it, she would not ask anymore. Some things should be left in the past.

If Liu Tongjia didn’t like Huo Jinyao, it was better to let it be that way. Anyway, he still had Su Qingsang, and it would be enough as long as she liked him.

Su Qingsang only had a minor surgery to perform in the afternoon, so she left work early.

Instead of going to the office directly to pick up Huo Jinyao, she went to a market nearby to buy some groceries. She planned to cook a meal for Huo Jinyao all by herself.

She went over to Huo Jinyao’s company to pick him up after buying the groceries.

She wanted to go to his office earlier, to see if he was feeling better from the fever and cold. However, thinking about what she had asked him at noon, she realized that he would have probably been unhappy.

He may have thought that she wanted to pry, or thought that she wanted to show more initiative in the relationship. However, she never had any of those ideas. She just hoped to help him, if she could.

She parked her car and went upstairs. She had already been there once before.

When she had come here previously, Yang Wenchang took her up in the lift exclusively used by the president, so she was familiar now and knew the way up herself. When she was about to enter Huo Jinyao’s office, the door next to it opened, and Ding Qing walked out from inside.
