For Su Qingsang, whether it was marrying Huo Jinyao or reuniting with Xiang Caiping, she never saw herself as a member of their social class.
After all, in her eyes, Huo Jinyao was just a low-level employee. After they got married, he treated her so well that she didn't even see him as a CEO.
Although Xiang Caiping had her own business in Rong City, she was still far from being a real rich family. It was always easier to get along with people of the same level.
"Honey."
Huo Jinyao stopped talking. He reached out and put his arm around Su Qingsang. He glanced at the call history on her back and gently hung up the phone.
Su Qingsang didn't feel it at all. She just leaned against Huo Jinyao's chest and said, "Do you think I'm too willful?"
"I won't."
His wife was always right no matter what she did. He could do whatever he wanted.
Su Qingsang smiled and rubbed her head against his chest. She was satisfied with his unconditional indulgence.
However, there were indeed some things that needed to be resolved. After thinking for a while, he said, "Tomorrow, I will send Auntie off. Then I called my mom and asked her to come over and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with me. Do you think my mother will be willing? "
"Yes, of course."
Su Qingsang sighed softly.
"What else can we do for Auntie?"
"Don't do anything." Huo Jinyao believed that she would understand. "Auntie is not a weak person. She doesn't need our sympathy and pity. "
"I hope Su Peizhen will take good care of Auntie after she comes out. I think that's what she wants the most. "
… …
Xiang Caiping took the mooncakes out of the oven. Su Qingsang happened to be standing in front of the kitchen.
Her luggage was already packed and placed in the living room outside. She had known about it yesterday, but when she saw the luggage, she still felt a little sad.
She also felt that she was not only willful, but also a little reckless. Call him over when you need him, and let him leave when you don't need him anymore.
"You're up?"
Xiang Caiping put the mooncake on the counter and looked at Su Qingsang with a faint smile on her face.
"Auntie?"
Su Qingsang looked ashamed. Xiang Caiping knew what she was going to say. He gave Auntie Yu a few instructions and asked her to put the mooncakes away.
It had just been roasted, so it had to cool down before it could be packed. After that, she washed her hands and walked to Su Qingsang.
"Don't say anything, I know."
"Auntie." Su Qingsang lowered her head. The more Xiang Caiping behaved like this, the more upset she felt.
"I'm leaving." Xiang Caiping glanced at the house in front of her. "You're not alone now. Be it in the hospital or at home, you have to be careful. It was still early in the month, and it would be inconvenient for her to move around if she got older. You're a doctor yourself. If there's anything, you know better than me. I won't say anything. "
Su Qingsang felt a little uncomfortable, as if something was stuck in her throat.
"Auntie —"
"Don't cry. Crying is not good for pregnant women. "
Xiang Caiping glanced at Su Qingsang's belly. "After the baby is born, it may not be convenient for me to visit you. Just give me a call and tell me you've given birth. "
Su Qingsang was speechless and could only nod heavily.
Xiang Caiping went to get her luggage, and Su Qingsang followed her. "Auntie, let me give you a lift."
"There's no need. I've called a taxi. "Xiang Caiping smiled." I still have to thank you. I even know how to call a taxi now. "
Su Qingsang couldn't smile. When Xiang Caiping lived here, she did teach her some common apps.
She insisted on seeing Xiang Caiping out. While waiting for the elevator, Xiang Caiping looked at her with a complicated expression.
"Oh right. There's something I think I need to tell you. "
"What?"
"Your mother came the other day."
Su Qingsang was stunned. Li Qianxue came?
"She knows that you've been living here for more than a month."
Xiang Caiping looked at Su Qingsang's stunned expression and reached out to pat her on the shoulder. "She's not very happy. I'm not saying this to sow discord. I just want to tell you that maybe you need to apologize to her."
Su Qingsang felt a little dizzy until Xiang Caiping left. She had planned to call Li Qianxue after Xiang Caiping left, but now she was a little afraid.
Li Qianxue knew that Xiang Caiping was here, so she should be angry, right?
… …
Li Qianxue didn't sleep well last night. When she woke up in the morning, she was a little tired.
Her forehead hurt, and she felt that she had caught a cold.
"Qianxue? Are you awake? "
Su Chenghui's voice sounded outside. Li Qianxue didn't want to move, nor did she want to get up.
"Qianxue? Are you okay? "
Su Chenghui was a little worried and asked a few more questions. Li Qianxue turned over and pulled the blanket up to cover her head, completely ignoring him.
She didn't make a sound, and Su Chenghui was even more worried. He kept knocking on the door.
Li Qianxue was helpless. She had a headache from the knocking on the door, so she had to get up and open the door.
"Su Chenghui, I'm very tired. I'm too lazy to change hotels. It doesn't mean that I accept you disturbing me like this. "
"You don't look good." Su Chenghui didn't seem to see the disgust in her eyes. He looked at Li Qianxue's face and took a step forward. "Are you okay?"
"I'm very good. If you don't disturb me, I'll be better." In fact, she just didn't rest well, but what did that have to do with Su Chenghui?
"You really don't look good." Su Chenghui raised his hand to touch her forehead. Li Qianxue avoided it and took a big step back.
"Don't touch me."
Su Chenghui's hand was raised in midair. Because of Li Qianxue's actions, his face looked a little hurt.
Li Qianxue didn't care about his expression at all. She wasn't feeling well now, and not sleeping well gave her a headache. She didn't expect that she would retreat too quickly and almost trip.
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui quickly reached out to support her.
Li Qianxue wanted to retreat, but her body was a little weak. She was forced to snuggle in Su Chenghui's arms and stared at him with cold eyes.
"Su Chenghui. Let go of me. "
"No." Su Chenghui had the habit of working out. All these years, he had maintained his figure very well. Seeing Li Qianxue like this, he reached out and easily picked her up.
"Su Chenghui." Li Qianxue was anxious. Su Chenghui carried her and put her on the bed. He pressed down on her shoulder when she was about to get up.
"Tell me what you want to do. You need to rest now."
"You don't need to worry about my business."
Su Chenghui looked at her stubborn look. This woman, he didn't know when it started, but she wasn't willing to show any weakness in front of him.
She was like a hedgehog, wrapping herself tightly with thorns.
"But what should I do? I don't want to interfere in your business. "
He reached out and stroked her forehead. When he looked at her pale face, there was a flash of heartache in his eyes.
"I want to be involved in everything you do in the future, every day of your life."
"Ha." Li Qianxue sneered and slapped his hand away rudely. Her eyes were full of sarcasm. "Su Chenghui, haven't you given me enough nightmares in the past twenty years? You still want to continue in the future? Sorry, I refuse. "
Su Chenghui's gaze darkened, and there was a hint of depression in his eyes. Li Qianxue didn't care. She turned her face away.
"Go away. I want to rest. "
"I'll get someone to deliver the food. If you want to sleep, eat something first before you sleep. "
"Su Chenghui, I think I have to remind you again. We're already divorced. "
"I know." Of course, Su Chenghui knew. "Don't be willful. It's not good for your health."
"I don't need your hypocrisy. Get out of my sight. "
"Qianxue, I'm sincere. What do I have to do to make you believe me? "
"I won't believe you no matter what." Li Qianxue couldn't stand his hypocrisy the most. "Su Chenghui, you've forgotten what you've done and said. I haven't. I've said it before. I'll never forgive you in my life, let alone believe you. Give up. "
"Qianxue?" Although she deserved it, Su Chenghui still wanted to explain clearly.
"Get out."
Su Chenghui wanted to say something, but he heard the doorbell ring. He glanced at Li Qianxue. Under her cold gaze, he helplessly turned around and opened the door.
Li Qianxue really had a headache. She covered her forehead and thought that she really needed to catch up on sleep.
Xiang Caiping should be leaving today. She originally thought that after that woman left, she would go to Su Qingsang tomorrow.
However, after hearing the conversation between Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao yesterday, she suddenly felt that she didn't want to go.
Ever since she met Su Qingsang, she had indeed wanted to make it up to Su Qingsang. Therefore, no matter what Su Qingsang said, she felt that she said it was okay because she didn't want to cause trouble for her.
However, she neglected the possibility that Su Qingsang really didn't think it was okay.
She didn't think that it was a very shameful thing that she didn't learn the four arts. She also didn't think that she didn't feel inferior because she didn't receive an orthodox education.
When she was an illegitimate daughter, she could adjust her emotions. There was no reason that after becoming a rich daughter, she would feel at a loss.
If that was the case, then she wouldn't be her daughter.
Because of Su Qingsang's words, Li Qianxue had unprecedented self-doubt.
She was still thinking about it when she heard a very soft call of "Mom."
Li Qianxue turned around and saw Su Qingsang standing at the door in sportswear, looking at her timidly.
"Why are you here?"
How did Su Qingsang know that she was here? Did she know that she had gone to look for her?
Or did she already know that she had gone to cause trouble for Xiang Caiping? What would she think?
"Mom, are you not feeling well?"
At the same time, the voice was accompanied by Su Qingsang's figure walking quickly towards Li Qianxue. Seeing this, Li Qianxue hurriedly stood up.
"Walk slowly. It's not like usual now."
"Mom, are you not feeling well?" Su Qingsang forgot all the words that she had thought before coming here when she saw Li Qianxue.
She reached out to touch Li Qianxue's forehead and was relieved when she found that she didn't have a fever. "Why is your face so pale?"
"It's nothing. I didn't sleep well last night."
The words "didn't sleep well" could mean many things. Su Qingsang thought of what Xiang Caiping had said before, and her expression suddenly became a little conflicted.
"Mom. I'm sorry. "
This sudden apology stunned Li Qianxue for a moment. She almost understood what Su Qingsang meant. "You don't have to say sorry. You didn't do me wrong."
She was the one who was wrong. Her Qingsang wasn't an ordinary girl, nor was she an ordinary person.
The compensation that she thought was right was not what Qingsang wanted at all. This was her fault, not Su Qingsang's.
"Mom. Don't say that. "
Su Qingsang didn't realize that her willfulness would make Li Qianxue feel anything before. Now that she saw her pale face, she really felt very guilty and remorseful.
"I'm sorry."
"Qingsang," Li Qianxue interrupted her. She saw the self-blame in Su Qingsang's eyes and felt very complicated.
"I suddenly realized that I'm not a good mother. Or rather, I don't know how to be a mother at all. "
"Mom –" Her words made Su Qingsang feel even worse.
"I'm telling the truth." Li Qianxue hadn't slept well last night and had been reflecting on herself.
"In the past, I wanted to educate Su Peizhen to be a lady from a noble family. I wanted her to become a qualified daughter of a rich family. But I forgot to teach her how to maintain her own heart. "
"I accepted you. I wanted to be good to you, but I forgot that maybe my kindness to you is not what you need."
"Mom." Su Qingsang held her hand and kept shaking her head. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"You must feel a lot of pressure when you spend time with me. But I didn't notice at all. Qingsang, I'm sorry. "
"Mom." Su Qingsang was already blaming herself. Hearing her say that, she felt even worse. She threw herself into Li Qianxue's arms and hugged her tightly.
"It's all my fault. Mom. I'm begging you to stop. "
"Alright, that's enough." Li Qianxue gently patted Su Qingsang's back. "Are we competing to say sorry now?"
Su Qingsang stopped. She bit her lip, and there was still guilt in her eyes.
"Okay. It's okay. Let's not talk about it, okay? "
Su Qingsang's eyes were red. Ever since she heard from Xiang Caiping that Li Qianxue had come to Rong City, she had been anxious.
Later, she really didn't know how to make Li Qianxue forgive her, so she called Huo Jinyao.
Huo Jinyao gave her advice. "Honey, you can go to her. Tell her what you think. She's your mother. She will understand you. "
Su Qingsang wasn't sure, but she wasn't a person who would run away.
What was wrong was wrong. She had to face her own mistakes.
She didn't expect that before she could explain herself, Li Qianxue would apologize to her first, which made her feel even worse.
"Mom. I actually, I, I didn't do it on purpose. I just … "
"I said I won't talk about it. Why are you still talking about it?" Li Qianxue held her hand tightly. This was her daughter. She was born after ten months of pregnancy.
At that time, she experienced many twists and turns before she was born, but she accidentally missed more than 20 years of life.
No matter what Su Qingsang did, she would forgive her in the end. Moreover, this matter wasn't Su Qingsang's fault.
"But, I …"
"What a silly daughter." Li Qianxue patted the back of Su Qingsang's hand. "I understand. You don't have to explain."
Su Qingsang looked at Li Qianxue. She suddenly said very seriously, "Mom, I promise you that I won't hide anything from you in the future. I won't lie to you about anything. Okay? "
"Okay." Li Qianxue didn't object. "I also promise you that I will respect your opinion in the future and won't give you any pressure."
Su Qingsang shook her head gently. "Mom, actually, I'm not afraid of you giving me pressure. But I don't want you to always carry this kind of guilt. I'm really living a good life. I don't need those compensations, and I don't need those worldly possessions. Really, it's good that we are like this. "
Su Qingsang didn't believe in fate, but she believed that everything had a cause and effect. If she was the real daughter of the Su family, she might not have met Huo Jinyao.
If she hadn't had the experience of being an illegitimate daughter, she wouldn't have become who she was now.
She was very satisfied with her current life and wouldn't blame herself for what she had experienced in those years.
Therefore, she didn't want Li Qianxue to always associate those years of her life with bitterness and hatred, as if she owed her a lot.
"Okay. I promise you. "
Li Qianxue looked at Su Qingsang and suddenly smiled. "I suddenly realized that I really can't compare to you."
Perhaps because she had experienced Su Peizhen's resentment, she unconsciously put herself in her shoes and thought that Su Qingsang would have the same emotions. But the reality was that Su Qingsang was Su Qingsang, and Su Peizhen was Su Peizhen.
They were different.
"Of course not. I can't compare to you, Mom. "Su Qingsang relaxed and was in the mood to joke.
"Actually, since I was a child, I've always admired you, Mom. I think you're a very powerful person. I've been secretly learning from you. "
Although Li Qianxue wasn't close to her, the years they lived together had subtly influenced her a little.
She was mentally strong and wouldn't be defeated by external affairs.
"Really?"
"Really." Su Qingsang nodded. "When I found out that you were my mother, I was so excited."
It was just that the time they had spent together was too short, and they hadn't had time to completely eliminate the estrangement of those years.
But it didn't matter. It was not too late to slowly eliminate it now.
"Mom, don't stay in the hotel. Come home with me, okay?"
Su Qingsang said carefully. She was afraid that Li Qianxue would still mind that Xiang Caiping had stayed at their house and refused to go back, so she quickly added.
"I've already asked Auntie Yu to tidy up your original room. Don't worry, it's all new. "
There were several guest rooms in Huo Jinyao's house. She didn't let Xiang Caiping stay in the room that Li Qianxue had stayed in before.
In fact, she knew very well that no matter how much she sympathized with Xiang Caiping and how much she wanted to take care of her, Li Qianxue's position in her heart couldn't be surpassed.
Li Qianxue looked at her and nodded. "Okay."
"Then let's go now."
Su Qingsang stood up and glanced at Li Qianxue. "By the way, Mom, where's your luggage? Let me help you pack it. "
"I'll do it myself."
Li Qianxue stood up. She had been a little uncomfortable at first, but now that she had talked it out with her daughter, she suddenly felt relaxed and in a much better state.
"I'll help you."
Su Qingsang wanted to help, but at that moment, someone knocked on the door of the room twice.
When she saw Su Chenghui standing at the door, Su Qingsang seemed to remember that Su Chenghui was also there.
Just now, she had wanted to explain to Li Qianxue, but now that she saw Su Chenghui, she was a little confused. She glanced at Li Qianxue.
