Chapter 564: Weird Attitude

Realizing what he was thinking, Zhang Yichen’s face took on a ghastly expression. He started moving and went straight back into the private dining room.

The short and sudden questions left Su Qingsang baffled.

She was not sure if it was just her imagination, but she had always felt that Zhang Yichen’s attitude towards her was slightly weird.

Without thinking too much, she went back into the private dining room after him.

Huo Jinyao had just finished talking about Lin City with Li Junsheng. He happened to see Zhang Yichen walking in, with Su Qingsang following soon after.

Zhang Yichen had a solemn expression, which disappeared as soon as he entered the room. Su Qingsang, who was behind him, was completely unaware of it.

She was still happy for Shi Mengwan, but she was also conflicted about whether to tell Wan Xianyang that Shi Mengwan would be going to France.

Huo Jinyao glanced at the both of them, suddenly feeling that something was wrong.

However, Li Junsheng’s voice quickly caught his attention, and he was unable to think about Su Qingsang and Zhang Yichen again.

Zhang Yichen did not stay for too long. Halfway through the meal, he answered a call regarding an urgent mission. He ended the call, told Huo Jinyao about it, and left.

Huo Jinyao wasn’t bothered about it either, as he was already used to Zhang Yichen coming and going in haste all the time.

As for Su Qingsang, she was still being pestered by Wan Xianyang, who asked her to speak well of him in front of Shi Mengwan.

She was being pestered so frequently that she finally agreed to ask how Shi Mengwan felt about him, though she would not guarantee anything.

Wan Xianyang thanked her profusely, and Su Qingsang thought this person was interesting. She just didn’t know which part of Shi Mengwan attracted him that had made him so persistent.

She only hoped that Shi Mengwan would make it clear to him so that he could give up soon.

When Zhang Yichen was about to leave, he happened to notice Su Qingsang and Wan Xianyang chatting happily. His eyes dimmed as he marched out without stopping.

Huo Jinyao spotted the last expression in Zhang Yichen’s eyes. His heart skipped a beat, and he swiftly turned to look at Su Qingsang.

However, she was completely oblivious to it.

...

Su Peizhen ended a game of Go with Old Master Huo, a faint smile forming on her face.

“You’re really good, Grandpa Huo! You knew all of my tactics. I have already lost three rounds in a row!”

“You’re still young. You are quite good for your age.”

Old Master Huo had a grin on his face. Su Peizhen came with Huo Yifan to visit him today, and she also played a few rounds of Go with him.

Su Peizhen was a smooth talker, and she was also quite good in the Go game, so Old Master Huo was quite pleased with her.

Huo Yifan sat by the side with a faint smile, while observing Su Peizhen and Old Master Huo playing the game of Go.

Halfway through the game, Su Peizhen looked at the sticky game situation on the Go board and said, “You’re too good, Grandpa. I need to think about the next move. I will go to the bathroom first, and I will be back to continue the game later.”

“Alright. I will wait for you to come back and to think about how to make the next move.”

Su Peizhen chuckled. She then got up and went to the bathroom. She had been to the Huo Mansion twice, so she knew the bathroom’s location.

A few minutes later, she came out of the bathroom. As she was walking across the corridor, she saw the housemaid named Xia. The maid was holding onto a fruit platter, and it looked like she had just left the kitchen.

Xia greeted her, knowing that the Old Master Huo liked Su Peizhen recently.

Su Peizhen looked at the fruit platter in her hand and asked, “Is this for Grandpa? Give it to me, and I’ll bring it out.”

“No, this is for the Madam.”

She knew that Liu Tongjia was the Madam whom Xia was talking about. Su Peizhen stared at the nicely arranged fruit platter and held out her hand.

“Let me help you.”

“This is not appropriate. You are a guest, how can I let you do this?”

“It’s alright. Previously, Aunty said that she had something to tell me. I’m just going to go up to ask about it.”

Since Su Peizhen said that, Xia passed the fruit platter to her without much thought.

Su Peizhen held onto the platter, asked for Liu Tongjia’s exact location, and climbed up the stairs.

She realized that the door was left ajar when she reached Liu Tongjia’s room. She was about to knock on the door when she suddenly heard voices from inside.

“The two of them, they have no qualms at all!”

Liu Tongjia scoffed indignantly. Su Peizhen did not knock on the door and stood still outside.

There was silence, and no other sounds could be heard from inside for a moment, but then Liu Tongjia’s voice was soon heard again.

“Were you the only one who saw this, or were there others who saw it too?”

“I was the only one who saw it. I have been keeping an eye on the young mistress, just as you instructed.”

The voice seemed to be from a younger person. Su Peizhen had no time to think about who that person was, maintaining her focus on their conversation.

Young mistress? Isn’t that Su Qingsang? Su Peizhen narrowed her eyes. She moved to the side, avoiding the door gap, but she still got closer, which allowed her to hear more clearly.

“How shameless.” Liu Tongjia couldn’t think of any other words to use, and grunted, “You may leave for now. Delete the pictures on your phone, and don’t let anyone see it.”

“Yes.”

“And don’t let Jinyao know about this for now.”

“Yes.”

Seeing that their conversation had ended, Su Peizhen walked swiftly towards the staircase. When the door was pulled open, she turned around and acted as if she had just come up.

Someone emerged from the room. She saw the person, who seemed to be a housemaid of the Huo Family.

She narrowed her eyes. Instead of bringing the fruit platter into the room, she chose to pretend to slip on her feet when she was passing by the person.

As a result, the fruit platter slipped out of her hand, and she gasped softly.

“Ms. Su, are you alright?”

Jiang looked at Su Peizhen. Jiang naturally knew who she was, since Su Peizhen had already come to the house twice.

“I’m alright.” Su Peizhen looked at Jiang and saw that she was still holding on to her mobile phone. She immediately recalled the conversation. The pictures on the phone? What pictures?

“I’m sorry. I wasn’t careful while I was walking, and I dropped the fruit platter by accident. Can you help me to clean this up? This is for Aunty, and I’m afraid this can’t be given to her anymore.”

“Of course.” This was something they had always been doing, so Jiang did not think too much about it. She bent over and began cleaning it up.

Su Peizhen grabbed her phone. “Let me help you hold on to this. You continue to clean this up, and I will go downstairs to get another fruit platter.”

“Alright.”

Jiang only had cleaning up the fruit platter in mind. She did not think much and fixed her attention on picking the fruits from the floor.

Su Peizhen clutched Jiang’s phone and went down. When she was at the stairs, she looked through the phone. Fortunately, Jiang did not set a password on her phone.

She opened up the photo gallery immediately, and there were several selfies of Jiang, as well as scenery pictures. Other than those, she found some other pictures in an unprotected folder.

When she saw the pictures, Su Peizhen almost burst out laughing.

Su Qingsang, oh Su Qingsang. I didn’t expect you to be so brave. It’s no wonder Liu Tongjia had wanted to say that of you.

In the picture, Su Qingsang was cuddling with a man, who was hugging her from behind. There was another picture of her and the man standing close together, their faces touching.

There was even a picture of the two of them, and they looked like they were kissing.
