To My Dear Mr. Huo Chapter 410 – Why Are You Trying to Hide It?

Chapter 410: Why Are You Trying to Hide It?

“No one,” Su Qingsang never thought that one day, her relationship with Su Chenghui would become like that. “I just want an answer. Is that hard? Is it difficult for you to mention the name of the woman who gave birth to me?”

“You…”

“Isn’t that why? If it’s not really hard for you to speak out the name of that woman, why are you still trying to conceal it at this point?”

Su Chenghui’s face reddened. He didn’t reply to Su Qingsang’s words. Su Qingsang wasn’t expecting him to give the answer so easily, though.

She was still confused, longing for the answer. So, she couldn’t help but take a step forward and raise her head to look at Su Chenghui.

“Dad, am I the result of a one-night stand?”

“You…” Su Chenghui was infuriated. He raised a hand and almost slapped Su Qingsang in the face.

Su Qingsang stared at him with her chin held high. Su Chenghui’s hand paused briefly in the air, then dropped.

After that, he snorted, turned, and left without looking back.

This time, Su Qingsang didn’t try to stop him. She stood there, watching Su Chenghui slam the door.

She felt tired, powerless, so she stepped backward and leaned against her desk.

Her puzzle was halfway solved, but the other half was still there. Su Chenghui was her father. That must be true.

What about her mother? Who gave birth to her? What kind of person was she?

Which woman had had a relationship with Su Chenghui? That was an unanswered question.

He wouldn’t tell, and no one knew. Whom could she ask about that? Su Chenghui refused to give her the answer, so who could she get the answer from?

Suddenly, her phone started ringing. She glanced at Huo Jinyao’s name that was sparkling on the phone screen, then answered the call.

Huo Jinyao returned to Rong City two days ago. The New Year was coming. He wasn’t able to do whatever he wanted, even though he was the CEO of Tianyu Group.

There was lots of work for him to do in Rong City. Su Qingsang knew that he was busy. Some times, she could hear him typing very late at night.

At other times, she heard Yang Wenchang reporting to him.

“Why are you calling me now?” Su Qingsang looked at the time and said, “Have you had lunch yet?”

“Yes,” Huo Jinyao handed a file to Yang Wenchang, then signaled for the latter to leave. “Didn’t you take a nap?”

“No. Something happened. I couldn’t sleep.”

Su Qingsang was still thinking about Su Chenghui’s reaction. That made her a little unhappy.

“What’s wrong?” From her voice, Huo Jinyao sensitively detected that something wasn’t right. “What happened?”

“Huo Jinyao,” Su Qingsang cleared her throat and said, “I’m not an orphan.”

“Did you talk to your father about it?”

“Yes. He came to visit my Mom just now.” Su Qingsang repeated Su Chenghui’s words to Huo Jinyao and described how he reacted. Of course, she didn’t mention that Su Chenghui almost slapped her.

“Are you saying that your father admitted that you’re his daughter, but didn’t tell you who your mother is?”

“Yes. No matter how much I asked him, he wouldn’t tell.” Su Qingsang was a little frustrated. “Can my real mother be an awful person?”

Otherwise, why would Su Chenghui have that kind of attitude?

“Not necessarily,” Huo Jinyao thought in a different way. “Have you thought that maybe your real mother isn’t awful… maybe it’s the other way around?”

“What do you mean?”

“Think about it. Your father earned Li Qianxue’s favor when he was young. She liked him so much that she made him marry her, even though he didn’t love her. She might not be the only rich girl who fell for your father. Perhaps your real mother was one of his suitors. She gave up on him at last, because she couldn’t win over Li Qianxue.”

Huo Jinyao made a guess. Su Qingsang found it both funny and annoying.

“I don’t think so. I assume you don’t know how powerful the Li Family was back then. Who would have the guts to steal Li Qianxue’s man?”

That would be suicidal!

“What else could it be? You can’t explain it otherwise. If your mother was just a random girl, he could have just told Li Qianxue whose daughter you are. He could have one mistress, or two. That’s the same thing.”

“Huo Jinyao, enough,” Su Qingsang couldn’t bear listening to that. “I do think that my father is not a loyal man, but I feel your guess is less likely to be true than mine.”

“How so?” Huo Jinyao believed that his guess could very much be right. “If you ask me, I’d say that your mother might be a girl from a very rich family. The only reason your father refuses to tell you about her is that he doesn’t want your real mother’s family and the Li Family to become enemies.”

Huo Jinyao said it without thinking while looking at the screen of his computer.

Still, he had one vague, ridiculous idea popping up in his head when he heard himself. Was it possible that…

Su Qingsang bit her lip and changed the topic. “You still haven’t told me why you’re calling me.”

Huo Jinyao called her every night after he left for Rong City, but it was the first time he called her in the afternoon.

Hearing her words, Huo Jinyao stopped thinking about Su Chenghui.

“I have something to tell you,” said Huo Jinyao with a gentle voice. “Grandpa still wants you to come to Rong City for the New Year. I already said no, but he said that he could send a private plane to pick you and your Mom up. He also said that he’ll hire the best doctor and nurse for your Mom if you’re worried about her.”

“Why did he suddenly say that? Is there a special reason?”

Huo Jinyao paused briefly to think. Something crossed his mind. “I might have forgotten to tell you that my grandpa has one brother and one sister. I have one great-uncle and one great-aunt. They don’t live in Rong City.”

“Every year, they come back here during the New Year. This year, they heard that I’m married, so they want to meet you.”

Huo Jinyao wouldn’t care if it was anyone else. However, his great-uncle, Huo Yangyuan, and his great-aunt, Huo Yangxiu, were not ordinary people. Not to mention that they were elders of the family, so it was normal for them to want to meet the wife of their brother’s grandson.

It was perfectly reasonable. Also, it was the first year of his marriage with Su Qingsang.

“Qingsang, Grandpa said that he’ll send your Mom to the best hospital, so you don’t need to worry about her. He will make sure that our mother will be taken good care of.”

Judging by his words, she realized she might have no choice but to follow him to Rong City for the New Year.

“Huo Jinyao, do you have a huge family?”

“Are you scared?”

“No. I just feel that it might be a little overwhelming.”

Last time, she had met Huo Jinyao’s uncles and aunties, and his cousins. She thought that was his entire family.

But this time, she needed to meet his great-uncle and great-aunt, and their children. How many people would that be?

Somehow, she did not want to go to Rong City.
