432 Su Qing and Huo Jue
The Huo family was rich, prosperous, and noble. Couldn’t their wealthy condition allow their children to freely choose their own love and marriage?
Huo Jue knew that he already had too many regrets. The past couldn’t be forgotten either. He might still need a long time before he could truly let go.
However, when it was his son’s turn to take such an important step in his life, he was indeed very happy that Huo Qi could meet Su Qing.
Ever since the children of the Huo family were born, they had to learn to shoulder the heavy family business. There was a lot of pressure and frustration. If there was no one worth rejoicing and being happy about in their lives, wouldn’t it be too boring?
!!
In this life, there had to be something worth looking forward to so that it wouldn’t be wasted.
Huo Jue looked at Su Qing’s face and thought of someone in a daze. Half a minute later, he finally woke up from Huo Qi’s voice!
“Father? Father!”
Huo Jue came back to his senses and glanced at Huo Qi. After tidying up the complicated emotions in the depths of his eyes, he continued with a smile, “I haven’t been sleeping well at night recently, and it’s making me listless in the day. I was distracted just now!”
As he spoke, he looked at Su Qing warmly. “Right! Didn’t you go to Country M a few days ago? I heard from Huo Qi that you went to perform a heart surgery on your sister-in-law. You went in a hurry back then, so I didn’t have the time to ask more questions. How is An Le now? Is she feeling better?”
Su Qing didn’t have much interaction with Huo Jue. The few times she came to the Huo family before, she didn’t talk to him much in total. Only today did Su Qing know a bit about him. The previous head of the Huo family, who had already shaken the entire Z Nation in the past few decades, was actually such an amiable elder.
Huo Jue gave Su Qing the same feeling as her master, Yuan Zhen, which was a warm and honest feeling.
The rumored ferocious and violent Huo family was ruthless and committed all kinds of crimes, but in Su Qing’s eyes, these “secrets” seemed to be fake rumors that could be broken with a poke!
At least what Su Qing saw now was a generous elder who was asking about someone else’s condition carefully and gently.
Su Qing nodded slightly and replied obediently, “Thank you for your concern, Uncle. Sister An Le’s condition is already very stable right now. She and my brother are both very well. Because Sister An Le’s condition deteriorated too quickly and seriously, we went in a hurry. Speaking of which, we haven’t thanked you for your help yet! If you hadn’t urgently mobilized the private jet, I might not have been able to make it in time. Thank you!”
Su Qing said as she smiled at Huo Jue. Her eyes were sparkling and she looked very sincere and cute.
When Huo Qi heard this, he looked at his darling, who was talking next to him, with a strange look and pretended to be indignant as he said, “If you want to thank anyone for this, shouldn’t you thank me first? I’m the one who’s been taking care of you and helping you arrange those things! Father only did a small thing, but you’re already thanking him so proactively. Shouldn’t I be rewarded for everything I’ve done for you?” Huo Qi said, as childish and shameless as a three-year-old child.
Hearing the words of gratitude from his future daughter-in-law, Huo Jue was very gratified.
He thought that Su Qing was really a polite and considerate child. Huo Qi wasn’t the only one in the Huo family who had a very good impression of Su Qing. Anyway, in Mr. Huo Jue’s eyes, Su Qing was already perfect.
So, after hearing his son take credit so childishly, Mr. Huo Jue despised Huo Qi even more.
Su Qing glared at Huo Qi gently and ignored the man’s childish act of wanting to make his presence known. She took the glass and took a sip of the warm honey lemon, then looked up at Huo Jue again.
Because Huo Jue had the same tacit understanding as her, the two of them ignored a certain especially excited and childish man at the same time.
Huo Jue took a sip of tea and said slowly, “Qingqing, when you have time in the future, you have to come to our house often to chat with Uncle! Huo Qi is very busy with work and he’s often not at home. Your Grandpa Huo and I are really bored. You can come over and talk to us when you’re here to relieve your boredom.”
