To My Dear Mr. Huo Chapter 418 – Who Is That Woman?

Chapter 418: Who Is That Woman?

Huo Jinyao looked at Su Chenghui. “Who is Qingsang’s birth mother?” He asked.

Su Chenghui was stunned. He had no idea that Huo Jinyao would ask that question. In fact, he might have guessed it,y but never thought that Huo Jinyao would ask it out loud so straightforward.

“What are you talking about? Qingsang’s birth mother is Xiang Caiping.”

Huo Jinyao wore a small, sarcastic smile. He put down the teacup, sat straight and looked at Su Chenghui.

“Is this funny?”

“Huo Jinyao,” Su Chenghui closed his eyes for a second to restrain the frustration in his heart, then said, “What do you mean? How can you talk to me like that? Who are you to question me?”

“I am Qingsang’s husband,” Huo Jinyao responded with a confident tone. “I don’t want her to be unhappy, so Father, please tell me who Qingsang’s birth mother is.”

“No one.” Su Chenghui had not the least with to discuss this. “I’m going to say it again, no one.”

“Yeah? Huo Jinyao looked at Su Chenghui, nodded heavily and said, “Have you ever thought that the more you try to hide the truth, the more suspicious you’ll look?”

“Huo Jinyao,” Su Chenghui started to get angry, “I am your father-in-law. Mind your attitude.”

“I know that you’re my father-in-law, but do you consider yourself as a real father?”

Huo Jinyao raised his voice when talking about that. “All these years, have you cared about Qingsang at all? Have you ever thought about her feelings? You couldn’t even give her the answer that she wanted. What makes you think that you will now have the privileges of a father-in-law?”

Su Chenghui stayed silent. He was aware of all that. He just forbad himself from thinking about it.

“That’s between Qingsang and me. It has nothing to do with you.”

“As I’ve said, I am Qingsang’s husband. Her business is mine.”

“I’m going to repeat this one more time, I don’t have an answer for you.”

“That’s because you feel guilty. You are trying to protect the woman that you really love.”

Huo Jinyao looked at him deep in the eyes. His eyes were as sharp as a pair of swords, piercing straight through Su Chenghui’s heart. “Am I right?”

“Nonsense!” Su Chenghui’s face darkened. “Who gave you the right to make guesses like that?”

“Is that nonsense?” Huo Jinyao smiled coldly, stared at Su Chenghui’s face and said to him, “You said that you love Xiang Caiping, but you never cared about her daughter. Clearly, it’s because she is not Xiang Caiping’s daughter. So whose daughter is she? Who is the other woman?”

Huo Jinyao recalled the guess that he had earlier. “I figured it out. That woman must be from a wealthy family, but her family wasn’t as wealthy and powerful as the Li Family. You kept her daughter and told everyone else that the girl is Xiang Caiping’s daughter. You did that to protect her, right?”

“That’s not true,” Su Chenghui’s protestation sounded powerless.

“Just admit it. The look on your face has sold you out. Why did that woman abandon Qingsang after giving birth to her? Isn’t that because she could not keep the girl? If that wasn’t the case, what caused your attitude?”

While speaking, Huo Jinyao felt that something in his guess wasn’t making sense. However, both he and Su Qingsang felt that it was most likely to be true among all the theories they had.

“Huo Jinyao, stop talking nonsense. What you said is not true.” Su Chenghui was good at controlling himself, but still, he let Huo Jinyao’s words affect him.

“Are you mad because I guessed right?”

Huo Jinyao sat straight and said to him, “Why don’t you be honest with me and tell me who Qingsang’s birth mother is? I can promise you that we only want the truth. We won’t interfere with her life.”

Su Chenghui wore a very sullen look on his face. He glared at Huo Jinyao. The flame of anger in his eyes seemed to reflect Huo Jinyao’s.

“Are you done? Please leave if you are.”

“Have you ever thought that you might not be able to hide it forever? After all, we can unearth information on all the women who had made contact with you decades ago. We just need some time to do that.”

“Huo Jinyao,” Su Chenghui sprung up, slapped the table heavily and said, “I’m telling you, get out, out!”

Huo Jinyao didn’t stand up. He didn’t even change his expression. Instead, he looked at Su Chenghui silently, with a faint, hidden scornfulness in his eyes.

“Do you think that I can’t find out the truth by myself? Is that why you refuse to tell me?”

Su Chenghui didn’t want to hear another word from him, so he moved toward the door.

Then he hurriedly opened the door of the study room.

“Huo Jinyao, get out.”

After saying that, he suddenly saw Li Qianxue, who was standing at the door with an expressionless face.

He couldn’t tell if she just got there, or if she had been there for a while.

A complicated expression instantly emerged upon Su Chenghui’s face.

Unlike him, Li Qianxue remained unmoved and turned her eyes to Huo Jinyao.

“Huo Jinyao, what were you talking about?”

Huo Jinyao narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Qianxue. He wasn’t sure what she might do when she learned the truth.

“Huo Jinyao,” Li Qianxue paid no attention to Su Chenghui, but stared at Huo Jinyao and spoke to him, “What did you say? Say it again.”

He didn’t answer her question. No sound was heard. The room fell into absolute silence. Li Qianxue made a step forward and walked into the study room. Su Chenghui automatically raised an arm, attempting to stop Li Qianxue.

However, she walked straight past him, to Huo Jinyao.

“Huo Jinyao, tell me.”

“Aunty Li?” Huo Jinyao slightly knitted his eyebrows. He was annoyed with himself for having failed to notice that someone had approached the room and overheard what he said.

He wanted to find Su Qingsang’s real mother for her but did not want to ruin her current peaceful life.

“Su Qingsang isn’t Xiang Caiping’s daughter? Whose daughter is she, then?”

Li Qianxue only grasped a few details just now. She wanted more. She wanted a specific answer.

“Tell me, who is that woman?”

“Aunty, I have no idea,” Huo Jinyao felt troubled when he looked at Li Qianxue’s solemn face. Things seemed to have gone out of control.

“Don’t you know?”

Li Qianxue scanned Huo Jinyao’s face with her sharp eyes, then quickly turned to Su Chenghui, who was standing behind her.

“He doesn’t know, but you do, don’t you?”

At that moment, Su Chenghui did not know what to do or say.
