Chapter 442: Very Dissatisfied

Despite their previous conflicts, she was grateful to Huo Jinyao for protecting Su Qingsang in all the situations when she had no idea Su Qingsang was her daughter.

Though Huo Jinyao’s actions had made her uncomfortable, she was now grateful for what he had done. However, no matter how grateful Li Qianxue was, she could not accept the fact that Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang got married so quickly.

She had been indifferent about their hasty marriage while she had no idea about Su Qingsang’s real identity. Now that she knew, she felt very upset.

Huo Jinyao had married her so soon, and now he was going to take her back to Rong City.

Qingsang was her daughter, and she hadn’t enjoyed much time with her. How could she allow Huo Jinyao to take her away?

In any case, she would make things difficult for him.

There was a knock on the door, and Su Yuxin’s voice came from outside. “Mom, are you up? It’s time for breakfast.”

“Coming.” Li Qianxue got up quickly and came up to open the door. “I’ll come down later. Don’t wake up your sister. Let her sleep.”

“Mom, did you two have a long talk? It seems like you had stayed awake for the whole night.”

Su Yuxin didn’t intend to be insensitive and disturb them. However, he couldn’t refuse the summons from Old Master Li, who woke up early in the morning.

Li Qianxue had spent the whole night with Su Qingsang, but Old Master Li hadn’t had the opportunity to visit with his granddaughter yet. He couldn’t wait to see her again.

He used to pay no attention to Su Qingsang because he didn’t know the truth. Now that he knew who she really was, he wanted to make up for the past twenty-something years.

“Let your sister sleep.”

Li Qianxue didn’t want to wake her daughter so early since they had a long conversation last night.

“Mom, I am awake.”

Su Qingsang woke up as she heard their voices. She sat up and blinked her puffy eyes.

Her long hair was in disorder, and she rubbed her eyes out of habit, looking sleepy and confused.

Li Qianxue turned to her with a softened expression. “Why don’t you go back to sleep? It was Su Yuxin’s fault that you woke up.”

“No worries. I am used to getting up early.” Su Qingsang was completely awake now. “Mom, if you feel tired, you can go back to sleep.”

“I am not tired.” Li Qianxue had not slept much, but she didn’t feel tired because she was eager to spend more time with her daughter.

Looking at them, Su Yuxin shook his head, turned, and went downstairs.

Soon, Li Qianxue and Su Qingsang went downstairs as well. Su Qingsang wore the clothes that Li Qianxue bought during her recent trip.

The clothes had originally been meant for Su Peizhen. Su Qingsang put them on and stood next to Li Qianxue, the resemblance between the two of them obvious now.

Su Yuxin stood up. Old Master Li looked at Su Qingsang and Li Qianxue. It all seemed so natural, as if Su Qingsang was supposed to belong to this house.

“Come, let’s have breakfast.”

They moved to the dining room. Old Master Li was seated at the head, Li Qianxue and Su Qingsang by his side, and Su Yuxin sitting on the other side of Su Qingsang.

The breakfast was quite a feast. The servants were informed yesterday that they should cook to Su Qingsang’s taste.

However, over the past years, they had had no chance to learn what Su Qingsang liked, so they prepared a full table of dishes.

“Qingsang, what do you want to eat?” Again, Li Qianxue was doing her best to give Su Qingsang every possible attention.

“Mom, I am not picky.” Su Qingsang was a little bit embarrassed. “If you continue treating me like this, I will become quite spoiled.”

“Well, well...”

“Mom, it’s just breakfast.”

Su Qingsang’s words somehow reassured Li Qianxue. The more Old Master Li observed Su Qingsang, the more affection he felt for her.

She was not arrogant or headstrong. She had a sense of proportion and didn’t overstep the boundaries.

“Qianxue, I want to hold a party.”

In the middle of the meal, Old Master Li suddenly put down his chopsticks. He stared at the other three.

“We didn’t know about Qingsang’s identity before. Now we know it, and we must make sure Qingsang is treated as the heiress of the Su Family. ”

“That’s a great idea.” Li Qianxue fully supported this suggestion. “Let’s invite all the important people in the business circles of Lin City. I want to let them know who the lady of the Su Family is.”

“Is that necessary?” Su Qingsang looked at them, feeling uncomfortable. “I think I am fine the way I am. Do we have to hold a party for that?”

“Of course. Not only will we hold a party, but it will be a huge one.” Old Master Li wanted to let the whole world know the truth. “You will finally be treated the way you should.”

“Grandpa.” Su Qingsang felt a little bit restless and put down her chopsticks as well.

“Grandpa, Mom, I feel grateful, and I understand your feelings. But there is something I have to tell you.”

She looked down with a distressed expression. “I feel grateful for your willingness to acknowledge me, but I don’t like the idea of holding a party.”

“It’s because of Dad. Whatever happened, he is still my dad. What happened in the past was his fault. But since he already made a mistake, we have no choice but to face the current situation.”

“If you acknowledge me in public and I become the lady of the Su Family, what will happen to Su Peizhen?”

When she spoke the name of Su Peizhen, the other three became silent.

Even if Su Peizhen was not Li Qianxue’s biological daughter, she had raised her with love and care for over twenty years.

The current situation was Su Chenghui’s fault. Su Peizhen was blameless. However, if Old Master Li acknowledged Su Qingsang, how could Su Peizhen live with herself?

“Mom, I am not softhearted, and I am not a saint. But I think we should keep this thing to ourselves.”

The most important reason was Su Chenghui.

Whatever happened, Su Chenghui was her dad. He was her biological father and she would respect him, even though she did blame him for crossing the line.

However, blood was thicker than water. She couldn’t ruin Su Chenghui’s reputation just because he switched her and concealed her identity.

If people knew the heinous conspiracy that Su Chenghui had plotted many years ago, there would be no place for him in Lin City anymore.

Now Old Master Li was going to evict him, and Li Qianxue was going to divorce him.

Su Yuxin blamed Su Chenghui, and so did Li Qianxue. When Su Peizhen found out the truth, she would probably blame him as well.

Utterly isolated, how would Su Chenghui live in Lin City, facing people who knew all about what he had done? Imagining this situation, Su Qingsang didn’t have the heart to let it happen.

Things had happened. It was done. There was no point in dredging up the past.

She was unwilling to ruin the last bit of Su Chenghui’s reputation. His name was doomed to be smeared anyway after he and Li Qianxue were divorced. The divorce would be sufficient punishment for him.

“But...” Looking at Su Qingsang, Li Qianxue felt her heart constrict. “But if we do that, we would not be doing you justice.”

“I don’t mind,” Su Qingsang assured her. “Mom, all I care about is your affection. We know the truth. It is enough.”

Li Qianxue didn’t say anything. She felt terrible about it. Qingsang was her daughter, but she couldn’t tell anyone the truth.

“Well, even if you would be uncomfortable with a party, at least allow me to give notice to the relatives, and let’s have dinner together. We can let relatives know who you are, right?”

Su Qingsang couldn’t refuse her request. She nodded. “OK, just dinner.”

“We don’t need to throw a grand party. How about tomorrow?” Old Master Li proposed. “Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Let’s invite them over here, and Qingsang can get to know them.”

Su Qingsang didn’t object this time. She was in no position to do so.

“Mom, if relatives and friends come tomorrow, can we say that there was a mix-up at the hospital when Su Qingsang and Su Peizhen were born?” Su Yuxin suggested.

Su Qingsang stared at him, wondering if they could present an alternative to the real story.

However, she soon realized that business people in Lin City were sharp and shrewd.

Assuming the explanation made sense, they would only believe it on the condition that Li Qianxue and Su Chenghui remained married.

Otherwise, if Li Qianxue filed for divorce as soon as she found out about the mix-up, it would be obvious there was something else behind the matter.

“Humph!” Old Master felt upset at the thought of this. “We can say that, but it’s up to them to believe it or not.”

“It’s their business to believe it or not, but we must decide what to tell them. Whatever happens, the attitude matters.”

Just like Su Qingsang, Su Yuxin was unwilling to see Su Chenghui’s name dragged through the mud. After all, he was their father.

Li Qianxue kept quiet, and her face was cold. Now she hated Su Chenghui, and at the same time, she had complicated feelings about him mixed with resentment, rage, sadness, and regret.

“After breakfast, I’ll contact Mr. Chen’s law office.”

Li Qianxue stared at Su Yuxin when she spoke. “Yuxin is not eighteen yet, but he will be soon. Qingsang is an adult now. Your dad will have no influence on your future life. I am going to divorce him.”

Old Master Li didn’t have any objection to that. “I won’t give any of the company’s stocks to him. He will not get a penny from the family.”

“Dad, you don’t need to worry about this. I have made it clear. If he wants money, I can give some of mine to him. After all, he did help the Li Family make a fortune over the past twenty years.”

Her eyes were full of resentment when she said, “I’ll treat it as the ‘break fee’ I must spend to cut off with him.”

“Qianxue...”

“That’s it.” Li Qianxue was determined. “I will ask Mr. Chen to come here later so that he can deliver the divorce papers to him today.”

Su Yuxin and Su Qingsang looked at each other. They both knew that they were in no position to stop the divorce.

“Mom.” Su Qingsang’s lips moved. She was about to speak, but Li Qianxue seemed to know what she was going to say.

“Qingsang, you don’t need to worry about me. I mean it. I’ve made my decision. During my entire marriage, he has wronged me. I used to think that if I were good enough to him, maybe time would change him. ”

“Now I see it is impossible. Since you know you are my daughter, you should also know how evil he is.”

“He had planned that the Li Family would, in the end, be in the hands of...” Li Qianxue stopped and didn’t finish the sentence. “Anyway, please don’t try to dissuade me.”

Su Qingsang nodded and didn’t say another word that would upset Li Qianxue. “OK, I support your decision.”

Su Yuxin felt the same. He was in no position to discourage their parents from getting divorced. He was glad that he and Su Qingsang were grown-ups now.

It didn’t occur to Su Qingsang that Li Qianxue would take action so quickly. It wasn’t long after breakfast that Mr. Chen came.

It looked like she was determined to divorce Su Chenghui.
