311 Retreat In Order To Advance
If one used the so-called “for your own good” in the name of the family and completely ignored the feelings of the person involved, it would be the most undesirable.
What the brothers of the Su family were doing now was actions due to their “sister complex”, but they hadn’t really thought about Su Qing’s feelings. These would only have the opposite effect! Just as Wu Mu had mentioned to Su Qian in the school cafeteria, doing this would only push Su Qing away!
Su Qing looked at Huo Qi’s gentle face and frowned slightly. “But I really don’t want to eat anymore. I just want to go home.”
When Huo Qi heard this, he smiled faintly and said, “Alright! If you don’t want to eat, then don’t. You’re tired from the competition today. I’ll send you home to rest.”
Su Qing nodded and stood up to walk into the cabin, leaving her brothers looking at one another in confusion. Su Shui glanced at Su Qing’s back and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong with Sister?”
They had just arrived and didn’t have time to say anything. Why did their sister leave in a bad mood? If only Fourth Young Master Su, who didn’t have high EQ, could have some of his twin brothers’ extremely high EQ!
Su Lu retracted his gaze from watching his sister leave and turned to look at Huo Qi. He sneered, “Young Master Huo, you’re really good! This move is to retreat in order to advance. You really performed beautifully!”
Huo Qi stood beside her and looked at Su Qing’s disappearing figure. He said coldly, “Thank you for letting me win. Weren’t you the ones who forced me into a corner?”
As he spoke, he turned to look at Su Lu and the few people beside him. The arrogance and coldness between his eyebrows suddenly appeared, and an evil aura slowly rose. “Actually, I don’t understand you brothers. Why do you have to treat me as a thorn in your side? We’re clearly the same kind of people with the same goal. We all want to treat Qingqing well and protect her for the rest of our lives! I’ve always been polite to you because I don’t want Qingqing to be in a difficult position between us. Can’t you tell? Qingqing actually cares about you a lot. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have told you all her thoughts and feelings.”
As Huo Qi spoke, he picked up a cigarette with his right hand and placed it between his nose. He sniffed it lightly with a mocking smile, looking evil and unruly.
Su Rui frowned tightly and looked at Huo Qi unkindly. “You don’t have to spend so much effort to sow discord between us siblings. After all, we’re not from the same world. And it’s impossible between you and Qingqing. Your family background isn’t suitable for our Qingqing!”
In Su Rui’s eyes, it had not been easy for his sister, Su Qing. At the same time, he also knew that what his sister had experienced in the past was definitely not something ordinary people like them could imagine. His heart ached and he regretted the hardships Qingqing had suffered.
Now, everything could finally slowly get on track. Qingqing could return to being a normal person and live an ordinary and happy life. If his sister and Huo Qi, this dangerous man who was involved in both the underworld and the legal world, were to mix together, Su Rui was worried that everything he imagined would be for naught!
Therefore, he was against his sister and Huo Qi’s marriage.
“It seems like you didn’t really understand what Qingqing said to you just now.” Huo Qi looked at Su Shui and was silent for a moment before smiling.
He walked closer to Su Lu and said softly, “I think Third Young Master Su, you’re the most transparent and mature among you brothers. You should be able to understand Qingqing’s words, right? At this point, my attitude is already very clear. I don’t think we should have such a hostile relationship. Qingqing doesn’t want us to continue like this. She is a very persistent person, and coincidentally, I’m one too! Therefore, you’ll have to accept me sooner or later! However, I don’t want to wait too long. My patience is limited.”
In this world, only the Su family could make Huo Qi deal with them so patiently! If those people in the underworld found out, they would probably think that Huo Qi had been replaced and had become some Bodhisattva who could save all living beings.
With that, Huo Qi turned around and walked into the cabin, completely ignoring the complicated and dark expressions on the faces of the four Su brothers behind him.
Su Rui, who had been choked by Huo Qi’s words, was so angry that his face turned red. Su Qian glanced at his second brother and said, “I shouldn’t have asked you to come.”
