Li Qianxue had been worried. She was scared when she saw Su Qingsang go on stage. She had never been so scared before.
She was afraid that Su Qingsang would lose to Su Peizhen. She was afraid that Su Qingsang would be at a disadvantage.
She regretted countless times. She regretted not being more magnanimous and tolerant.
If she had trained Su Qingsang according to Su Peizhen's standards, Su Qingsang would definitely be more outstanding today.
Until she saw Su Qingsang's performance, until she heard her daughter speak.
Her heart had been hanging in the air. In the end, Su Qingsang left the stage.
Her heart, which was worried about Su Qingsang, seemed to finally be at ease.
Her back was covered in a layer of sweat. After Su Qingsang's performance, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Chenghui stood beside her. He had been paying attention to Li Qianxue and Su Qingsang.
He was also amazed by Su Qingsang's performance. He had never seen a daughter like this.
Seeing that Li Qianxue's body relaxed after Su Qingsang's performance, he reached out to help her.
Li Qianxue waved his hand away without thinking. She turned to face him and stood still, her eyes cold.
"Su Chenghui."
She had so many things she wanted to say and so many emotions she wanted to vent. But now, she couldn't say anything other than Su Chenghui's name.
She didn't need to say anything. Su Chenghui understood. Ignoring her resistance, he held her in his arms.
He gently patted her back. Li Qianxue's body tensed up. At first, she wanted to break free, but the occasion wasn't right.
She thought of Su Qingsang and Su Peizhen. The emotions in her heart were in a mess.
She couldn't help but grab the front of Su Chenghui's shirt tightly. Her trembling voice was filled with suppressed emotions.
"Su Chenghui, you owe her. You owe her for the rest of your life."
… …
Su Peizhen shook Su Qingsang's hand off. If it weren't for her last shred of dignity, she might have lost her temper on the spot.
After shaking Su Qingsang's hand off, she realized that something was wrong. She grabbed Su Qingsang's hand and led her to a corner.
She took a step forward and stood in front of her. She looked at Su Qingsang with fire in her eyes and a low voice full of sharpness.
"Su Qingsang, are you very proud now?"
"Are you proud of yourself?" Su Qingsang looked at her exasperated face and chuckled. "I'm quite proud of myself. After all, it would be hard for me not to be proud of having Miss Su as my accompaniment. Don't you agree? "
Her smile was faint and her expression was magnanimous. No matter who saw her now, they would not think about how nervous she was before she went on stage.
Speaking of which, Su Qingsang really didn't have any outstanding talents. She grew up with the identity of an illegitimate daughter. The Su Family being willing to give her a mouthful of food was already a gift. How could they let her go to those things?
Moreover, she wasn't interested in that. Therefore, compared to Su Peizhen, she really didn't have any talent to show.
Her voice was not bad, but she had never wanted to sing.
To be able to sing a legend like this, he had to thank his medical school days.
Every year at the medical school's gala, there would be people who would perform on stage. Su Qingsang was never a person who liked to be in the limelight.
However, the year she was about to graduate, the class monitor misheard and reported her name.
When she found out, it was too late. She wanted to say that she didn't want to perform, but the program had already been reported to the school.
Su Qingsang had no choice but to bite the bullet.
She was a person who pursued perfection. Since she had decided to go on stage, she had to perform well.
For that time on stage, she practiced for a long time. She learned how to pronounce, how to speak, and how to turn.
Fortunately, it hadn't been too long since she graduated. Her voice could still be heard.
The calmer she was, the angrier Su Peizhen became.
"Su Qingsang, don't go too far."
"I …" How did she go too far? She was the one who provoked her first. How did she become the one who went too far?
"My woman, so what if I go too far?"
The voice that suddenly sounded was a bit cold. Huo Jinyao had come out of nowhere.
He stood in front of Su Qingsang, put his big hand on her shoulder, and looked at Su Peizhen with sharp eyes.
Su Peizhen's body trembled under Huo Jinyao's stare, and her momentum suddenly weakened.
Huo Jinyao curled the corner of his lips. His tall figure created a great sense of oppression at this moment.
"So what if my woman goes too far?"
Su Peizhen gritted her teeth. At this point, what could she do?
Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao. Her heart warmed. Actually, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage. But she liked Huo Jinyao's protective look.
"President Huo, this is between me and Qingsang. It has nothing to do with you."
"Qingsang is my wife. Do you think it has anything to do with me?"
Just as Su Peizhen was about to vomit blood, another voice sounded.
"It's so lively here."
Huo Yifan had come out of nowhere. He stood next to Su Peizhen.
His gaze swept over Huo Jinyao and Huo Yifan, and he smiled. "Big brother, what are you doing? No matter what, Peizhen is your future sister-in-law. Don't scare her on my behalf. "
He also put his hand on Su Peizhen's shoulder. His intention to protect her was quite obvious.
Huo Jinyao's gaze swept over his hand, and finally returned to Huo Yifan's face.
Their eyes met, and for some reason, there was a strange surge of pressure in the air.
"You also said that she is future. Since it is future, let's wait until she marries into the family. "
The corners of Huo Jinyao's lips curled up slightly, and there was a hint of mockery in his expression.
Su Peizhen felt more and more anxious.
What did Huo Jinyao mean?
"Big brother, it's really interesting to talk like this. Don't worry. I will definitely make Peizhen your sister-in-law. "
"Then we can wait and see."
Huo Jinyao put his arm around Su Peizhen's waist, glanced at Huo Yifan and Huo Yifan's faces, turned around, and left.
Su Peizhen was so angry that her teeth itched. She was really uncomfortable. She waved Huo Yifan's hand away.
"Enough."
"Okay, baby, don't be angry." Huo Yifan held her hand. "It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Don't be anxious."
How could she not be anxious? She glared at Huo Yifan hatefully. "You'd better pray that the signing of the contract will go smoothly in two days, or else —"
"Okay, okay." Huo Yifan put her in his arms again. "Don't be angry. Trust me, it will go smoothly. "
Su Peizhen walked beside Huo Jinyao, and she suddenly laughed out loud. Her laughter was very low. Huo Jinyao turned his face to look at her.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing." Su Peizhen glanced at him. "I think Su Peizhen's reaction just now was quite funny."
Huo Jinyao twitched the corner of his mouth. "She probably didn't expect that you would turn her into a joke when she wanted to see you make a fool of yourself."
Su Peizhen laughed, stuck out her tongue, and said playfully, "It's not a joke, but she didn't get what she wanted, so she's probably very angry."
Huo Jinyao smiled as well. He kissed her gently on the cheek and said, "You sang so well just now. Why didn't I notice it before? When you went to play with us, you held back, didn't you? "
"Yes." Su Peizhen's eyes curved. "I always have to hold back."
"Well done." Huo Jinyao looked at her slightly open lips and couldn't help but kiss them. "I like it."
Su Peizhen's face was a little red. From the corner of her eye, she saw Su Peizhen and Huo Yifan turn around and leave, and the smile on her face faded a little.
She actually didn't want to have a bad relationship with Su Peizhen.
From Su Peizhen's point of view, she had lost everything. It was understandable that she would have emotional dissatisfaction.
If Su Peizhen didn't do anything and just let it go, then she was willing to let it go.
If Su Peizhen didn't want to stop and would make more moves, then she had no choice but to do it.
…
Su Peizhen didn't wait for the banquet to end and wanted to leave early.
However, she couldn't leave because Old Master Huo was looking for her.
Old Master Huo didn't know that Su Peizhen didn't know how to play the guqin, so he thought that the two sisters' performance just now was a temporary surprise.
Naturally, he knew that Su Peizhen was multi-talented. For a moment, he didn't realize Su Peizhen's original intention.
"Peizhen. You gave a good surprise today. Did you tell that lass Qingsang long ago? "
"Yes." Su Peizhen smiled brightly, but only she knew how unwilling she was in her heart. "I wanted to play the four-hand duet with my sister, but she said that it would take longer to practice. This is the best."
"Good, good, good." Old Master Huo said the word good three times. He looked at Su Chenghui and Li Qianxue in the distance.
"Ask your father to come over later to discuss your marriage with Yifan."
Old Master Huo thought that Su Peizhen and Huo Jinyao hadn't held a wedding in Rong City yet. Now that Su Peizhen was going to be with Huo Yifan, the wedding must be held in a lively manner.
Su Peizhen's face was really a little stiff now. Discuss her marriage with Su Chenghui?
Li Qianxue was in a bad mood. She was also the one who wanted to leave early.
However, she couldn't. Not only was she not in a hurry to leave, but she also stood aside when someone came up to say hello and knew that Su Chenghui was Su Peizhen's father.
"President Su is amazing. Both of his daughters are so outstanding. It's really gratifying that they can both marry into the Huo family. "
"That's right. President Su's daughter is better than so many outstanding daughters in Rong City. "
"He's really good at teaching."
Su Chenghui didn't want to hear those praises.
However, he had to listen to them. Not only him, but also Li Qianxue.
Others wouldn't know that they were divorced, let alone that Su Peizhen and Su Qingsang had the same father but different mothers.
Li Qianxue stood beside Su Chenghui. After the crowd dispersed, she glanced at Su Chenghui coldly.
"This is the last time."
She didn't say what the last time was. She walked towards Su Qingsang, intending to leave first.
Su Chenghui watched her figure disappear into the distance and sighed silently in his heart.
He had thought that it was a chance to get close to Li Qianxue and repair their relationship. However, he didn't expect that not only did he not get what he wanted, but it also made their relationship even worse.
Looking in Su Peizhen's direction, Su Chenghui knew that it would be even more difficult for Li Qianxue to forgive him.
Before he could recover from that emotion, Old Master Huo had already asked Huo Yifan to invite him.
Old Master Huo was a powerful person. After entertaining for most of the day, he was sitting on the sofa in the banquet hall to rest.
Huo Yangyuan and Huo Yangxiu sat beside him. In addition to them, there was also Huo Yifan and Su Peizhen. There was also Huo Mingliang, Nian Chunya and her husband, Huo Yiyang, and Huo Manzi.
Su Chenghui didn't see Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang, so he greeted everyone present.
Finally, he sat down on the sofa opposite Old Master Huo.
"Nephew, where's niece?"
"She's not feeling well. She went back to the hotel to rest."
Old Master Huo nodded. He understood the real relationship between Li Qianxue and Su Peizhen, so he didn't ask anymore.
"Nephew, I've already said it once. Now I'll say it again, and I'll also ask for your opinion. "
As Old Master Huo spoke, he glanced in the direction of Huo Yifan and Su Peizhen. The two of them were sitting together, holding hands, looking very loving.
"Let's discuss Peizhen and Yifan's marriage."
Su Chenghui had prepared before he came, but he didn't expect Old Master Huo to be so anxious.
"What I mean? Get engaged first, then get married. It was a lively and bustling event. As for how much betrothal gift you want and what other requirements. Just mention it. I mean a wedding in Rong City. As for whether to do it in Lin City, we'll also ask for your opinion. If you need to do it, we can also cooperate. "
He married both of his daughters to the Huo family. Huo Jinyao's previous matter with Su Qingsang had become a foregone conclusion.
Old Master Huo definitely wanted this second wedding to be a grand one.
"I think that's good too." Huo Yangyuan also said at this time, "One in Rong City, one in Lin City. Our Huo family can't be too casual in marrying a daughter-in-law. "
Su Peizhen leaned her face against Huo Yifan's chest, and the anger in her heart before. Finally, it was a lot smoother.
Su Chenghui sat there for a long time without moving. In front of him was an elder of the Huo family, and opposite him was Old Master Huo's smiling eyes.
He turned to look at Su Peizhen and saw the smile in her eyes.
He pursed his lips and spoke softly under Su Peizhen's smiling face.
"Sorry, I don't agree to this marriage."
The air seemed to suddenly become silent. Everyone in the Huo family looked at Su Chenghui, as if they didn't understand why he meant this.
"Nephew, you must be joking, right?"
"I'm not joking." Su Chenghui faced Old Master Huo with a fearless expression. "I really don't agree."
"Well?" Old Master Huo looked at the other people present, then looked at Su Peizhen, and finally seemed to be a little confused. "Nephew, do you have any dissatisfaction with Yifan? Or? "
"Neither."
Su Peizhen's face turned pale. She never expected Su Chenghui to do such a thing.
"Then what are you doing?"
"Old Master, I think it's better for me to tell you something first."
Su Chenghui's voice was indifferent. "You should know that although Peizhen is my daughter, she can't be considered the eldest daughter of the Su family." At this point, Su Peizhen's face was already quite ugly.
She almost couldn't help but lose her temper. Huo Yifan squeezed her hand tightly and gave her a disapproving look.
Su Chenghui acted as if he didn't see Su Peizhen's change of expression. "Peizhen is my daughter, but she is an illegitimate daughter."
She almost couldn't help but lose her temper. Huo Yifan squeezed her hand tightly and gave her a disapproving look.
Except for Old Master Huo, everyone's expression changed.
Nian Chunya had known it for a long time, but when she heard Su Chenghui say it out loud, her expression became even more interesting.
"She's illegitimate. Now, it had nothing to do with the Li family in Lin City. I don't think she's good enough for — "
"Dad." Su Peizhen had been upset the whole night. She had been suppressing her emotions.
This time, she didn't want to suppress it anymore. "Do you have to be like this?"
"I just wanted to make it clear to my in-laws in advance." Su Chenghui looked calm. He looked at Su Peizhen, and his usually elegant face was filled with determination.
"I've taught you that a gentleman does not lie in the dark. I've made mistakes before, so I don't want you to make them again. Your status doesn't match Huo Yifan's. "
"Dad."
Su Peizhen gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.
Old Master Huo looked at the father and daughter and cleared his throat to smooth things over. "Nephew, you don't have to say that. I already know Peizhen's identity. The Huo family doesn't mind. We didn't object to Su Qingsang's marriage with Jinyao. "
"Old Master, I know you're a good person."
Su Chenghui's attitude didn't change. After what happened before, he knew very well that Su Peizhen wanted to marry into the Huo family because she didn't get along with Su Qingsang.
How sincere could she be towards Huo Yifan?
A marriage without feelings wouldn't be happy. Su Peizhen was now possessed. In order to make Su Qingsang unhappy, she didn't mind putting herself in danger.
"But there are some things I want to make clear to you first. For example, Peizhen's identity and the gap between her and Huo Yifan. I've made these clear. "
"I know that nephew is magnanimous. However, these are all small matters. You don't have to be so agitated, don't you think? "
"Anyway, I won't agree." Su Chenghui's attitude was firm.
Su Peizhen was furious. She sat there and felt as if she had been stripped naked.
Embarrassment, embarrassment, shame, and all kinds of emotions surged, making her face turn red.
"Dad, I'm already an adult. I don't need your permission to do anything. "
She was going to marry into the Huo family.
"Yes, you're old enough to have your own opinions. So, you don't need my permission to do anything. "
Su Chenghui nodded and didn't refute her words.
"I'm just explaining my attitude. As for what you plan to do, that's your business. "
He stood up and glanced at Old Master Huo.
"Old Master, I have reservations about this marriage, but I've already said it first. However, I've already said this first. If you still want Peizhen to enter the Huo family, then do as you please. You don't have to inform me to attend the wedding. "
Su Peizhen's face turned from red to white. She didn't expect Su Chenghui to be so decisive.
She stood up and stood in front of Su Chenghui when he was about to leave.
"Dad, I thought I was still your daughter."
"Yes. I also thought you were still my daughter. "
Su Chenghui knew what she meant, but he believed that she also knew what he meant. "I thought you didn't see yourself as my daughter anymore."
If Su Peizhen hadn't deliberately made things difficult for Su Qingsang just now, Su Chenghui wouldn't have such an attitude now.
However, he was very clear about Su Peizhen's actions just now.
She had such an attitude even before marrying into the Huo family. If he really let her marry into the Huo family and have more contact with Su Qingsang, what would she do?
Or perhaps she had already made a move without him knowing?
Su Chenghui didn't want to think so badly of Su Peizhen, but now he had to think about it.
"Dad." Su Peizhen took a step forward. She lowered her voice and pleaded. That was her last glimmer of hope for Su Chenghui. "Today is a good day. You can disagree with me marrying Huo Yifan, but you're my father. Are you sure you really want to do this? "
"Yes, are you sure?"
Su Chenghui's usually gentle black eyes were now filled with disapproval. "Are you sure you've thought it through and want to marry Huo Yifan? Are you sure you love him? Are you sure? "
He looked at her with a sharp gaze. It was as if he could see into her heart.
Before Su Peizhen could answer, Huo Yifan stood up first. He held Su Peizhen's shoulder.
"Uncle, of course Peizhen and I have real feelings for each other. I've been dating Peizhen for a few months. Although I can't say that we understand each other 100%, sometimes when we meet the right person, we can't help but want to settle down with them. But sometimes, when we meet the right person, we can't help but want to settle down with them. Since Peizhen and I have decided, we will naturally get along well. In the future, we will slowly deepen our understanding and get to know each other better. We will let our feelings for each other further. "
These words were very pleasant to hear, but unfortunately, he was facing Su Chenghui.
"Is that so? In that case, I wish you all the best. But I still maintain my attitude: I don't support your marriage, but I won't interfere or stop it. That's all. I just hope that you won't regret it. "
He didn't believe that with Huo Yifan's shrewdness, he couldn't see that Su Peizhen had ulterior motives in Yao Jiajing and the Huo family.
But why could Huo Yifan still accept it? It meant that Huo Yifan's motives were not pure. Huo Jinyao was the president, and Huo Yifan was the vice president.
There was a huge difference in the word 'vice'. Everyone had ambitions. With an outstanding brother like Huo Jinyao above them. Huo Yifan probably had his own thoughts.
Su Chenghui could even conclude that Huo Yifan and Su Peizhen had some business dealings.
"Uncle, what are you talking about? Of course I won't regret it. After all, I have real feelings for Peizhen. "
Su Peizhen didn't say anything. She didn't want to say anything anymore. She just looked at Su Chenghui. Now she hated him as well.
She would remember the humiliation these people had given her today.
Whether it was Su Qingsang or Su Chenghui.
One by one, she would never forget all the things that had been done to her.
She hid her emotions very well. In the eyes of others, she was delicate and pitiful. She didn't get her father's blessing and she felt very wronged.
Only Su Chenghui, who had feelings for her for more than 20 years, didn't miss the flash of hatred in Su Peizhen's eyes.
His feelings became more and more complicated.
"Peizhen, since you won't regret it, then you don't need my permission. Anyway, you're on your own. "
"Old Master." Su Chenghui bowed in the direction of Old Master Huo. "Qingsang's mother isn't feeling well. I'll go see her. Excuse me."
