"Yeah, because of this, I had a big fight with his father, so I asked him to come back. He stayed for two more years and was about to be promoted before he was discharged. The truth is, he didn't want to come back. Don't be fooled by his usual sloppy behavior, he's actually a patriot. He's always thought that patrolling the border was his proudest achievement … In the end, his grandfather ordered him to be discharged because, as you know, the Su Family has very few descendants. After I gave birth to Su Yu, my health deteriorated and I didn't want any more children. So, he's really, really important to us."
Lady Su used the word 'special' twice in a row to show how important Su Yu was to the Su Family.
Huo Mien nodded and didn't say much. He only listened to Lady Su.
"This is a photo of him after he came back and started his company. He was still young back then."
"Yeah, I don't think he was mature back then," Huo Mien said as he looked at the photo while munching on an apple.
"And this is a photo of us having fun in the South Sea during Chinese New Year last year …" She pointed at Su Yu. He was wearing an orange singlet, black beach pants, and brown sunglasses. He looked like a superstar and was very eye-catching.
Lady Su flipped through the photo album and told Huo Mien some interesting stories about Su Yu.
Finally, she reached out and closed the photo album. She looked at Huo Mien and said, "This time, you didn't care about your reputation and testified for Yu 'er. I'm really impressed. I thought most women would protect their own interests and not care about others."
"It's nothing, Auntie Su. I was the witness to begin with," Huo Mien replied calmly.
"Then, do you know what happened after you testified?"
"I know." Huo Mien smiled nonchalantly.
"You knew, but you still did it. Aren't you afraid that your reputation will be ruined?" Lady Su looked at Huo Mien seriously and asked.
"Hmm … how should I put it? For me, compared to losing my reputation, I care more about my heart … I don't want to do anything that would let me down. This is my principle. "
Huo Mien said word by word …
Lady Su's eyes were filled with admiration.
"Thank you very much for doing this for Su Yu."
"No, it's because he's been protecting me. That's why he didn't mention our meeting. I think it's only right for me to testify. I'm not that great. Please don't think of me as a great person. In fact, I'm just an ordinary person with a selfish side. When I encounter something difficult, I'll play tricks …" Huo Mien said honestly.
"That's why I like you." Lady Su looked at her lovingly.
Huo Mien was a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and chewed the apple very slowly.
"Madam, dinner is ready."
"Let's go and eat."
"Auntie Su, you're too polite. I won't be eating. I'm leaving."
Huo Mien felt that it was wrong of him to stay for dinner. After all, he wasn't that close to the Su Family.
"Don't worry, Su Yu won't come back. I know what you're worried about. Just treat it as accompanying me, okay? I'm the only one at home. "
Upon hearing Lady Su's words, Huo Mien felt too embarrassed to refuse.
He could only bite the bullet and follow Lady Su to the dining room.
"I heard that you really like seafood … I went to the market this morning and bought some. They're quite fresh."
"Thank you, Auntie Su."
Huo Mien was a little embarrassed. He found a seat and sat down.
He looked at the table full of seafood. Scallops, squid, conches, sea monsters, sea rabbits, crabs, and mantis shrimps.
It was a complete mess of seafood …
"Don't be nervous, we're just chatting." Seeing Huo Mien's awkwardness, Lady Su reminded him.
"Auntie Su, I'm a straightforward person. Why don't you just tell me why you called me here today?"
Lady Su put down her chopsticks and smiled at Huo Mien. After a while, she slowly said, "I actually wanted to ask, did you and your husband really have a conflict?"
"Um …" Huo Mien was quite surprised. To be honest, he didn't expect Lady Su to ask this.
"If … I'm saying if you guys really don't get along, like the media said, and you guys break up peacefully, can you give Su Yu a chance?"
After hearing this, Huo Mien was even more shocked …
Lady Su was … confessing on behalf of Su Yu?
