Chapter 427 - She Is Not My Girlfriend
Chapter 427: She Is Not My Girlfriend
Seeing Su Qingsang, Su Yuxin was clearly stunned. He almost subconsciously took a step towards her.
Su Qingsang also felt some surprise. Su Yuxin’s movement happened to block the girl behind him.
Su Qingsang couldn’t help but glance at the girl one more time, but then found that it wasn’t Bai Zhihan.
Looking back, Su Qingsang didn’t plan to meddle in other people’s business.
“Yuxin? Are you also shopping? ”
“Yes,” Su Yuxin nodded, looking at Su Qingsang with mixed feelings.
“With your girlfriend?” Did it mean Bai Zhihan was a thing of the past? Thinking of that woman, who had aborted Su Yuxin’s child, Su Qingsang’s gaze got sad.
“She is not my girlfriend,” Su Yuxin explained quickly, completely ignoring the fact that the girl beside him looked a bit awkward. “We just ran into each other.”
Su Qingsang nodded as if she did not see the two holding hands just now.
“Well, you guys go on.”
“Sis…” Seeing Su Qingsang leaving, Su Yuxin could not help but call her.
Su Qingsang turned to look at him and raised her eyebrows. It seemed that she didn’t understand why he would call her.
“Well…I— ” Su Yuxin pursed his lips and looked at Su Qingsang. He actually had many things to ask her and many things to say.
Now, facing Su Qingsang’s indifferent look, he couldn’t say a word.
He spent a whole day digesting this and still couldn’t accept the news that he heard yesterday.
The shocking news stupefied him.
Su Peizhen was not his sister, but Su Qingsang was.
When he heard the news outside his father’s door, he was shocked. He couldn’t believe it or face it.
He even ran away from the scene, but couldn’t help but come back after leaving. He wanted to question his father. Why did he do this, and how could he?
However, before he could clarify, he heard Huo Jinyao’s words.
He said that Su Qingsang did not intend to acknowledge Li Qianxue as her mother at all. This news shocked him again.
He could not understand why Su Qingsang would do that, why she was unwilling to recognize Li Qianxue, even after he heard Huo Jinyao’s explanation.
He said Su Qingsang didn’t want to hurt Xiang Caiping. Was that a reason for her to refuse to acknowledge them?
However, when he calmed down and thought thoroughly from Su Qingsang’s standpoint, he discovered tragically that there really wasn’t any reason for Su Qingsang to think of them as her family.
Ever since childhood, has Li Qianxue cared for Su Qingsang? No.
Has Su Chenghui treated Su Qingsang nicely? Also, no.
Has he given Su Qingsang a kind look, a kind word? Again, no.
He had once disliked this sister from the bottom of his heart, thinking that as an illegitimate daughter, she brought the Su family disgrace. More importantly, her presence has damaged his parents’ relationship.
But in reality? She was admitted to Lin City’s A Medical school at the age of seventeen. After graduating, she was now an excellent doctor.
What about Su Peizhen? She had capabilities, but the things she did behind their back… No to mention those dirty tricks she pulled against Su Qingsang time after time.
The difference between the two was seen at a glance. Back then, he could say that Su Peizhen had her reasons. Now that he really thought about it, he just felt ashamed.
As an “illegitimate daughter” who had little resources and was ignored by her parents, Su Qingsang worked hard and was motivated.
Aside from all this, even since childhood, Su Qingsang’s manner towards her family was loyal.
Even though she was distant, she paid them enough respect. He didn’t like her before, because Su Qingsang’s existence put Su Chenghui and Li Qianxue’s relationship in difficulty.
Now he knew that Su Qingsang was, in fact, his sister. His real sister.
He couldn’t tell what was on his mind. Yesterday, he wanted to rush to Su Qingsang, to explain everything.
However, when he drove halfway, he got cold feet. Yes.
Li Qianxue had gone to the United States to accompany Su Peizhen. For more than 20 years, Li Qianxue had treated Su Peizhen tenderly as her own daughter.
What would happen if Li Qianxue knew?
Not only Su Qingsang couldn’t imagine it. Neither could Su Yuxin.
However, would he actually say nothing to her? He struggled for an entire night without an answer. He woke up early in the morning with tired eyes.
Old Master Li saw that he was not in a good mood, and allowed him to go out for a walk without much resistance.
He had come here and run into his classmate. Her father had some business relationship with Li Corporation.
He did not refuse when she offered him to help with a gift selection, as he didn’t want her to lose face. He did not expect to meet Su Qingsang.
He looked at Su Qingsang and didn’t know what to say.
Those endless words that he couldn’t say almost escaped him. He could not help but want to get close to her and talk to her.
“What’s the matter?” Su Qingsang looking at Su Yuxin, the younger brother, her real brother, who was obviously concerned. “What happened?”
“Nothing.” Su Yuxin didn’t know what to say. “My mom went to the United States.”
“I know that,” Su Qingsang’s heart beat a bit faster, and she didn’t understand why he wanted to mention Li Qianxue. “What’s the matter?”
“She may not be back that soon.”
“I know that too.” Su Qingsang already thought she might not be able to see Li Qianxue before leaving. Now that it was confirmed, she was a little disappointed, but she could live with it.
But why would Su Yuxin mention this to her out of the blue? Perhaps he knew something?
“I …”
Su Yuxin took a step forward. He seemed to want to clarify something, but his classmate came over at that moment.
“Yuxin, is this your sister?” Isn’t your sister Peizhen?”
She had attended a Su Family’s banquet and understandably knew Su Peizhen. However, she didn’t know much about Su Qingsang.
“Shut up. It’s none of your business.”
Su Yuxin glared at the girl: “I have two older sisters. Is that a problem?”
Su Yuxin frightened the girl. Her face changed a little, and she was speechless.
When Su Yuxin looked at Su Qingsang again, his eyes were full of apology. “Sis…I am sorry.”
“It’s fine,” Su Qingsang waved her hand. “If it’s okay, we’ll continue shopping. See you later. ”
Su Yuxin’s lips moved, he wanted to speak, but couldn’t say a word in the end.
He just watched Su Qingsang leave. The girl behind tried to approach him, but Su Yuxin glared at her.
He left her there, saying “I can shop by myself”. The girl was left there, staring after him.
“Qingsang, what’s going on with your little brother?” Shi Mengwan whispered to Su Qingsang after they left the others. “Why do I feel like he is acting weird today?”
“You saw it too?”
Su Qingsang felt the same way. However, she didn’t think Su Yuxin would know the secret. After all, Huo Jinyao would never tell Su Yuxin, and Su Chenghui was even more unlikely to do that.
“Yes,” Shi Mengwan thought of some things Su Qingsang told her before. “By the way, he specifically mentioned his mother. Do you think he hates you and Huo Jinyao for driving Su Peizhen out to the United States? ”
“It can’t be…” Su Yuxin was not like that. However, Su Qingsang was not certain. “I actually don’t know.”
“It is impossible to judge a man’s heart from his face.” Shi Mengwan was afraid that Su Qingsang put too much importance on her feelings for the family and in the end, didn’t even realize that she got played. “I think it’s better for you to keep your distance from the Su family.”
Su Qingsang got quiet. To keep a distance from the Su family? Under current circumstances, it was probably her only choice.
After all, she was afraid that if she stayed too close to the Su family, the secret might be revealed by accident.
“You won’t get upset about what I said, right?”
“Not a chance.”
Su Qingsang knew that Shi Mengwan said it for her own good, and she would not feel upset. However, concerning her origin, she suddenly doesn’t know how to tell it to Shi Mengwan.
She certainly knew that Shi Mengwan could keep secrets. However, Shi Mengwan now had a good relationship with Xiang Caiping and would often visit her.
If Shi Mengwan knew, it was hard to guarantee that a forthright girl like Shi Mengwan wouldn’t give it away in front of Xiang Caiping.
“Let’s go. Let’s keep shopping. ”
She would keep quiet for now. Since she decided to consider Xiang Caiping as her own mother, she didn’t need to say a thing.
“Alright, let’s go.”
…
United States, Florida.
Li Qianxue watched Su Peizhen return, and finally, a little smile appeared on her face.
“You’re back?”
“Yeah.” Compared to her, Su Peizhen looked really bummed out.
If they were still in Lin City, they could attend the Spring Festival celebration.
She could hang out with her friends and fly all around. But this year?
She was trapped here and Su Chenghui would not let her leave. He signed her up for this so-called advanced studies class.
This advanced studies class sounded like an MBA class for young people. However, the people in her class were about the same age as her father.
She wouldn’t stay for a day. She wanted to return to China immediately.
“Mom…” Su Peizhen sat down beside Li Qianxue and grabbed her arm. “Can I go home? I don’t want to stay here anymore. ”
Li Qianxue didn’t want her daughter to stay here either. If she could, she would take her back at once.
Now, however, she didn’t want to go home. The thought that Su Chenghui had another woman made her feel disgusted.
“Didn’t your dad say you have to study here for three months?”
“But I can’t stay even for a month. Not to mention, you don’t know what they are teaching in class. I don’t want to listen at all. ”
Su Peizhen looked at her pleadingly. “Mom, please let me go back home. Please, please!”
Li Qianxue stayed silent. She really didn’t want to go back and didn’t want to see Su Chenghui’s face.
If she went back, most likely Su Chenghui would quarrel with her again because of that woman.
“Mom…” Su Peizhen felt trapped. “I didn’t mean it. I know I was wrong, but Dad is so mean. It’s the Lantern Festival in a few days. And I will be all alone and away from home on the holiday. ”
“I said I’ll stay with you.”
“But don’t you want to go back to be with Grandfather?” Su Peizhen looked at her in surprise. “When were we ever away from Grandpa for the Chinese New Year?”
