To My Dear Mr. Huo

Chapter 250: You Want to Leave

“It’s nothing.” Su Qingsang knew that her buddy was concerned about her. “She already came to find trouble with me, but I told her I knew nothing. She can’t do anything to me.”

“What you have said is true.” Shi Mengwan started to feel uneasy once she thought about the members of Su Family. “It’s best that you keep your distance from that family. None of them are remotely decent.”

“Don’t say that; they just dislike me. It’s not something vile.”

Shi Mengwan scoffed and laughed dryly. “That’s because you have a good temper. If I was in your position, I would have thrown a fit.”

“Alright, I know that you have my back. Thank you.”

“If you really want to thank me, this meal is on you.”

“No problem at all,” Su Qingsang agreed without hesitation.

Shi Mengwan smacked her forehead forcefully. “Look at me, I’ve made myself silly. Your husband’s family background is so formidable, how can you be short of cash? I didn’t even have to demand to be treated.”

“That’s his wealth, not mine.”

“You should never try to provoke me.” Shi Mengwan gripped her chest, her face contorted in an expression of hurt. “You’ve snagged a man of such excellent quality even when you were carelessly looking for a marriage partner. Of course I’m going to be jealous of you.”

Su Qingsang thought about Huo Jinyao and the look in her eyes softened. She was indeed rather fortunate.

“I got lucky.”

“End of conversation.” Shi Mengwan rested her upper body on the table and a ‘life is meaningless’ look was written all over her face. “Did you consider how a single person like me might feel when you flaunt your love life?”

“Alright, stop being dramatic.” Su Qingsang took out the gift and pushed it towards Shi Mengwan. “Come, I’ll patch up your broken heart.”

“This is more like it.”

Shi Mengwan took the gift and the look of avarice on her face evoked Su Qingsang’s laughter.

With her bosom buddy here, she knew she could not bear to leave Lin City to move to Rong City.

She decided to sit on the matter of moving to Rong City and wait to see how things go.

...

In Rong City...

“Sister Xiang, your waist has fully recovered? You have been discharged from the hospital?

Aunty had been taking care of Xiang Caiping in the hospital for a few days and saw that she seemed fine now. Aunty was still a little worried, though.

“I’m fine now.” Xiang Caiping shook her head and massaged her lower waist. There was still a slight pain, but it was nothing serious.

“Sister Xiang, Mr. Yang left a considerable sum of money here. He said it is compensation for you.”

Xiang Caiping frowned. Aunty was referring to Yang Wenchang when she mentioned Mr. Yang.

Besides checking on Xiang Caiping out of concern on the first day of her stay, he had gotten a caretaker for Xiang Caiping after that.

When he heard that Xiang Caiping was going to be discharged, he made a trip to the hospital again and presented a check.

Xiang Caiping had declined his gesture. Due to Aunty being at Xiang Caiping’s side daily to take care of her, Yang Wenchang had treated Aunty as being closely related to Xiang Caiping and had given the check to her.

This time Aunty had directly given the check to Xiang Caiping. Xiang Caiping looked at it with loathing in her eyes.

Taking the check from Aunty, Xiang Caiping tore it to pieces without a second thought. Aunty’s mouth was agape as it was a hundred thousand dollars.

The medical fees had been paid for Xiang Caiping and she was still compensated with a hundred thousand dollars. Aunty felt that it was excessive.

Xiang Caiping did not explain herself further. She was thinking of the decision she had made a few days ago. “You have been taking care of me all these years and I truly appreciate that. However, I want to make a trip to Lin City.”

“Sister Xiang, you want to go to Lin City?” Aunty’s last name was Chen and she had been taking care of Xiang Caiping for a few years. This was the first time that she had heard of Xiang Caiping’s intention to leave Rong City. It was such a distant place.

“Yes, I want to go to Lin City.”

When it came to Su Qingsang, Xiang Caiping’s aged disposition reflected exceptional determination.
