Su Qingsang knitted her brows slightly. Liu Tongjia was not afraid of incurring her displeasure. “Jinyao is my son. I know him very well. He can never truly fall in love with a woman. Even though you are the wife of the Huo Family’s young master, you don’t have to be complacent. It is uncertain how long you will possess this title.”
“Aunty, you have misunderstood.” Su Qingsang had a faint smile on her face. “Jinyao may be your son, but I feel that you might not really understand him. Furthermore, you have underestimated me. I’m with Jinyao not to be the wife of the Huo Family’s young master. As for how long I can possess the title, well, as the saying goes, ‘The benevolent see benevolence and the wise see wisdom;’ we each have our own views. At least I feel that I can keep possessing this title.”
“Really? Then we shall see.” Liu Tongjia’s disposition was hostile and her tone was uncongenial.
“Don’t you worry, Aunty. I will treat this as motivation to prove myself.”
Su Qingsang smiled indifferently, not in the least bit affected by Liu Tongjia’s words.
Liu Tongjia’s ploy to faze Su Qingsang did not succeed and her expression hardened further. She scoffed, turned on her heels and left.
At that moment, Huo Jinyao had already got out of the pool. Even though the weather was rather chilly, he was not affected by it. He put on a robe and went over to where Su Qingsang was.
He did not see Old Master Huo, just the departing figure of Liu Tongjia.
“What did my mother say?” Standing in front of Su Qingsang, Huo Jinyao looked a little concerned.
“She didn’t say much.”
“Just ignore her if she tries to say anything unpleasant.” Huo Jinyao knew that he was still wet from his swim and did not hug Su Qingsang. He lightly squeezed her hand.
“I will,” Su Qingsang gazed at Huo Jinyao. The concern in his eyes was genuine. His affection towards her was also indisputably legitimate.
She did not think that Huo Jinyao was feigning his desire for her, and she also did not think that Huo Jinyao married her with an ulterior motive.
If she had not seen the power and authority which the Huo Family wielded, she might still have doubts about him. There was no reason for her to be doubtful now.
The difference between the Huo Family and the Su Family’s property and legacy was substantial. The Huo Family’s property and legacy were unparalleled.
Even though she was covertly curious about the reason Huo Jinyao married her, it did not matter now. She had always been a forward-looking person.
It did not matter how it started; now, she was in a good place. It was sufficient for her.
After their meal, the Huo Family chauffeur drove Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang to the airport. Liu Tongjia was not present; she had no intention of sending her son off. Huo Jinyao did not want her to send him off anyway.
Su Qingsang was, in fact, curious about Huo Jinyao and Liu Tongjia’s hostile relationship, but she was merely curious and had no intention to probe into it.
When Huo Jinyao wished to talk to her about it, he would naturally do so.
The flight landed at Lin City’s airport. The personnel whom Huo Jinyao had arranged to pick them up were already awaiting their arrival.
Back home, Su Qingsang heaved a sigh of relief. No matter how luxurious the Huo Family’s mansion was, she still preferred their own cozy private space.
The weather had already shown signs of the onslaught of winter and the temperature in Lin City had plummeted. Su Qingsang lay sprawled on the bed as she watched Huo Jinyao bring their clothes into the walk-in closet. She flipped her body to face him.
“Huo Jinyao.”
“Hmm?” Huo Jinyao had brought in both their suitcases. As for the items they had bought from their trip, they were in the living room. Su Qingsang would be gifting them away the next day.
“Does living in this small house upset you?”
Huo Jinyao stopped tidying up their things and walked over to the edge of the bed before sitting on it. “Why? Do you feel like moving to a bigger house?”
“It’s not that at all.” No matter how small their current living space was, it was her own space. “I feel sad for you, Young Master Huo.”
“Are you making fun of me?” Huo Jinyao placed his hand on her waist. “I see that you have grown bolder.
