To My Dear Mr. Huo

Chapter 550 - You Have Great Tolerance, Mrs. Huo



Chapter 550: You Have Great Tolerance, Mrs. Huo

“Aunt... I meant your mother... She ——” Su Qingsang found it difficult to speak her mind, so she couldn’t finish her sentence.

She had never once thought that a mother would treat her child like that. “Can I ask you why your mother does not like you?”

There was a sudden silence, and Su Qingsang could hear his breathing becoming heavier on the other end of the line.

She suddenly realized that she might have said something wrong to him. She shouldn’t have asked that question.

Huo Jinyao started speaking just as she was about to explain her question further. Although Su Qingsang was unable to see his expression through the phone, she could clearly hear the nonchalance in his voice.

“If she doesn’t like me, then she just doesn’t like me. What reason could there be?”

“...”

With her heart aching a little, Su Qingsang firmly believed that Huo Jinyao was definitely not someone who would betray his own elder brother and younger sister just to survive.

“But, Jinyao, I actually heard ——”

“Darling, Wenchang has brought me my lunch. I am quite hungry, so I am going to eat first.”

“Alright.” Su Qingsang couldn’t finish the rest of her sentence. The rest of her words were stuck in her throat like a stone.

She knew that after today, she would never have the courage to ask him about it again.

“Huo Jinyao.”

“Yes?”

“It’s nothing. I am going to eat as well.”

“Alright.”

Huo Jinyao hung up immediately, without saying another word.

Listening to the beeping sound on the phone after the line was cut, Su Qingsang felt heartbroken once again.

She closed her eyes and tried to suppress the wave of emotions she was feeling.

Forget it. Since he did not want to speak about it, she would not ask anymore. Some things should be left in the past.

If Liu Tongjia didn’t like Huo Jinyao, it was better to let it be that way. Anyway, he still had Su Qingsang, and it would be enough as long as she liked him.

Su Qingsang only had a minor surgery to perform in the afternoon, so she left work early.

Instead of going to the office directly to pick up Huo Jinyao, she went to a market nearby to buy some groceries. She planned to cook a meal for Huo Jinyao all by herself.

She went over to Huo Jinyao’s company to pick him up after buying the groceries.

She wanted to go to his office earlier, to see if he was feeling better from the fever and cold. However, thinking about what she had asked him at noon, she realized that he would have probably been unhappy.

He may have thought that she wanted to pry, or thought that she wanted to show more initiative in the relationship. However, she never had any of those ideas. She just hoped to help him, if she could.

She parked her car and went upstairs. She had already been there once before.

When she had come here previously, Yang Wenchang took her up in the lift exclusively used by the president, so she was familiar now and knew the way up herself. When she was about to enter Huo Jinyao’s office, the door next to it opened, and Ding Qing walked out from inside.

The two of them bumped into each other.

When Su Qingsang saw her, she immediately frowned subconsciously. But a few seconds later, her expression quickly became as calm as she was when she had first walked in.

Ignoring Ding Qing, she wanted to go straight towards Huo Jinyao’s office.

She didn’t know if it was done intentionally or not, but Ding Qing just stood in front of her and blocked her way.

Su Qingsang took a step to the side, without any change in her expression. But when she took a step to the left, Ding Qing would move to her right, and when she moved to the right, Ding Qing would go to her left.

Both of them stood there facing each other, and with every step Su Qingsang made, Ding Qing was blocking her way.

After a few times, Su Qingsang stopped and looked up at Ding Qing. “What’s the matter, Miss. Ding?”

“Mrs. Huo, you were the one blocking my way, so why are you asking me if there is anything wrong?”

Ding Qing raised her eyebrows indifferently, and there was a clear provocative look in her eyes.

Su Qingsang’s eyes narrowed. If one looked carefully, it would be obvious that her current expression looked exactly like Huo Jinyao’s.

Ding Qing stood there and waited for Su Qingsang to create a scene, but Su Qingsang just took a step back calmly after looking at her.

“Since Miss. Ding feels that I am blocking her way, please go ahead first.”

Not only did she move aside, but she also made a gesture with her hand, telling Ding Qing that she can go first. Ding Qing was a little surprised and stood still for a while.

Su Qingsang looked at her from the side. “Why? Didn’t you say that I am blocking your way? Please, go first”

Ding Qing did not leave but took a step forward instead. She stood in front of Su Qingsang. “You have great tolerance, Mrs. Huo.”

With a smile visible on the corner of her lips, she leaned forward slightly. She moved closer to Su Qingsang’s face, and said softly, “I am just not sure if you will still have the same tolerance when President Huo becomes mine one day.”

Su Qingsang stood still. She watched Ding Qing smirking in front of her, and suddenly chuckled.

“Miss. Ding, you’re so young, but you have such a bad memory. I think you might need to go see a doctor.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Miss. Ding, I remember telling you the other time that Huo Jinyao has erectile dysfunction. Don’t you remember that? Or do you still want him like that?

“Of course I want him like that.” Ding Qing lifted up her chin, and her face was cold and haughty. “Mrs. Huo, I am not such a superficial woman. What I love is President Huo himself.”

“That’s it? Then I should look at you from a different perspective.” Su Qingsang looked at her haughty face, and suddenly changed the topic of the conversation. “But you will need to be able to get him first.”

She followed what Ding Qing did previously. She leaned forward slightly and spoke softly in her ears.

“After all, Huo Jinyao has really high standards. So, it is not like he would just fancy any unattractive woman.”

She finished the sentence with a smile and took a step back. Her smile got brighter as she looked at Ding Qing’s face turning green. She stopped looking at her, wanting to walk past her and leave.

“Mrs. Huo, you are going a bit too far.”

Ding Qing blocked her way, and her eyes were cold. “You are a little too confident, Mrs. Huo. After all, no one would know the outcome before it actually happens, right?”

“Indeed,” Su Qingsang nodded. “Who would know the outcome before it happens? But there is no need for me to wait until the end. And I can already tell you this, that Huo Jinyao is mine. No one can take him away.”

“You’re really confident, Mrs. Huo. I hope that you will always continue being confident like this.”

“I will.” Su Qingsang’s expression remained unchanged. There were no signs of emotional instability in her eyes when she looked at Ding Qing. She only felt complete disregard for this woman.

“After all, you would naturally be confident if you are liked and loved, unlike someone, who is not loved and can only try to steal someone else’s husband. Come to think of it, it’s really sad, isn’t it?”

Su Qingsang knew that she wouldn’t lose, when it came to talking her way out.

Ding Qing’s face became grimmer, and her chest heaved continuously. If she hadn’t considered the consequences, she would have slapped her without a doubt.

“Mrs. Huo, you really don’t need to be complacent here. There will be other women even if I am not around President Huo, so it is just a matter of time. Do you think that you will be able to guard him against all the women around him?”

Su Qingsang blinked. There was a mischievous and puzzled expression on her delicate and pretty face. “Guard him against women? You might have misunderstood, Miss. Ding. I do not need to protect him from anyone. I will only need to guard him against others when the man doesn’t care about me. If his heart belongs to me, why would I need to be scared of other women stealing him?”
