To My Dear Mr. Huo

Chapter 391 - How Do You Want To Punish Her?



Chapter 391: How Do You Want To Punish Her?

“That was what happened.”

“Su Peizhen?” Su Qingsang looked unimpressed. Her lips were pressed into a straight line. There was an obvious sheen of anger in her clear, watery eyes.

“It’s great that you’re back. Your dad has stopped me from dealing with Su Peizhen just now. How do you want to punish her? Just let me know.”

In reality, Su Peizhen did not directly participate in the events that led to the accident. The ones who did were Madam Luo and Madam Song.

Though they were the main perpetrators, why would the two of them make Xiang Caiping’s life difficult out of the blue, if Su Peizhen wasn’t the one playing her little tricks behind the scenes? In the end, it was all Su Peizhen’s fault.

Su Qingsang didn’t know that. In fact, she had just promised Li Qianxue that she would leave Lin City.

She could empathize with Su Peizhen. After the slap she got from Xiang Caiping, she simply couldn’t stomach her frustration just like that.

However, she should not have harmed Xiang Caiping. Su Qingsang felt horribly conflicted, but before she could think of a way to make Su Peizhen pay, someone knocked on the door to the ward twice.

The one who came in was Su Chenghui. He was holding two bags in his hand. When he noticed Su Qingsang, he stopped short, but he didn’t seem too surprised.

He had left after Xiang Caiping was out of critical danger. Huo Jinyao thought that he left because he couldn’t face Xiang Caiping — he didn’t expect to discover that Su Chenghui just went out to buy dinner.

“It’s late. You should eat something.”

Huo Jinyao stood there motionlessly. Su Qingsang stared at Su Chenghui, her father who had never acted as one.

“No.” Su Qingsang’s voice was utterly cold. “I’m not eating the dinner you brought.”

“Qingsang?” Su Chenghui was stunned. Clearly, he did not expect an attitude like this from Su Qingsang.

Su Qingsang’s expression did not change. “Where’s Su Peizhen? Has she gone to hide after causing trouble?”

Su Chenghui frowned upon hearing her words. “Why would you think that? She’s tired, so I sent her home to have some rest.”

“Tired? Why is she tired?” Su Qingsang stared straight at Su Chenghui’s face. Her gaze had extraordinary anger and sharpness to it. “What could she possibly be tired from?”

She stepped forward and stood before Su Chenghui. “She doesn’t have to do anything to deal with those she doesn’t like. She doesn’t even have to say anything. Just one look, one expression… and somebody would help her get even or vent her anger. Is that right?”

“Su Qingsang.” Su Chenghui growled warningly, then took a few deep breaths when he noticed Huo Jinyao throwing unfriendly looks towards him. “Peizhen didn’t intend for this to happen either. Madam Luo and Madam Song were the ones who caused it. Huo Jinyao had already punished them. You—”

“It’s their problem now. How about Su Peizhen?” Su Qingsang cried, unwilling to compromise.

No matter how good-natured she was, she had a bottom line too. “Tell me. How about Su Peizhen?”

“Qingsang, Peizhen is your elder sister, however you look at it, and she knows that she made a mistake. She—”

“Su Peizhen is my elder sister, but Xiang Caiping is my mother.” Su Qingsang’s voice heightened a notch. She glared at Su Chenghui with an ice-cold gaze.

“Dad, search your heart and ask yourself — has Su Peizhen ever thought of me as her younger sister? Has she ever treated me as one?”

Su Chenghui’s words were stuck in his throat. He couldn’t utter a proper answer to Su Qingsang’s question at all.

“Qingsang, we will not talk about this matter right now. I believe that when your mom is awake, she will definitely tell you to leave Su Peizhen alone. After all—”

“Did you just say my mom won’t want me to deal with Su Peizhen?” Su Qingsang reacted as if she had heard a joke. “Dad, are you confused?”

What reason could Xiang Caiping possibly have to forgive Su Peizhen? “I would like to remind you that in Japan, my mom gave Su Peizhen a slap because she called me an illegitimate child and the daughter of a homewrecker.”

“I know that that slap made Su Peizhen do all this. Nevertheless, Dad, ask yourself this — is my mom really a homewrecker? Who was the one who made me an illegitimate child?”

Su Chenghui couldn’t utter a single word. He had always thought that Su Qingsang was a good-natured person, and clearly did not expect her to lose her temper and patience one day.

“Dad, I don’t need you to treat me well. I don’t need you to treat my mom very well either. You’re married and have another family. I understand all of that. Your family is your family, but I have my family too.”

“Su Peizhen got a slap from my mother. You and Auntie — one by one, you paid her a visit, wanting to hold my mom accountable. Now, how about my mom? She was hit by a car because of Su Peizhen. Does Su Peizhen really think that she can just gloss over this matter without facing the consequences?”

Su Qingsang’s words were full of wrath. Even if Su Peizhen wasn’t mainly responsible for the accident, she still had to be held accountable, right?

“I’ve hit her already.” When Su Chenghui recalled the teary look Su Peizhen still had on her face on the way home, his heart ached.

No matter how mad he was at Su Peizhen, she was still the daughter that he had adored for many years. “I’ve punished her already. She knows that she was wrong.”

“A murderer could admit that they’re wrong after killing somebody.” Su Qingsang wouldn’t just drop the case. “The law would still consider them guilty.”

“Qingsang—” Su Chenghui didn’t know where to start. He had a bellyful of things to say, but he couldn’t utter a single word.

“Please get out of here. I don’t want to see you.”

He was disloyal and fickle-minded. He was loyal neither to Li Qianxue nor to Xiang Caiping. He said he loved Xiang Caiping, yet he married Li Qianxue. He said he preferred Li Qianxue, but he couldn’t forget about Xiang Caiping.

Now that Xiang Caiping was in distress, he couldn’t even get proper justice for her. Su Qingsang didn’t think so before, but now she felt that her father was truly an irresponsible douchebag.

“Qingsang—”

“Get out.” Su Qingsang’s voice was even shriller than before. “Neither my mom nor I want to see you.”

Su Chenghui remained silent. He turned the lunchboxes over in his hands and set them down on the table at a corner.

“Qingsang. No matter how angry you are, you still have to eat. As for what happened to your mom, I’m very sorry about it. But don’t you worry, I’ll definitely teach Peizhen a good lesson.”

Su Qingsang remained silent. She didn’t believe that Su Chenghui had it in him to punish Su Peizhen at all, but she was unwilling to argue with him further.

Su Chenghui left, leaving only Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao in the ward. Su Qingsang stared at the lunchboxes, not touching them at all.

The sky outside darkened. Xiang Caiping had not yet woken up. There were many tubes hooked to her body, and this sight made Su Qingsang’s heart ache profoundly.

She had not eaten lunch for she made her way back as fast as she could after she got the news. She was extremely hungry and thirsty, yet she did not have the slightest appetite for anything.

“Huo Jinyao.”

Huo Jinyao stood by her side with an arm around her shoulders, giving her some silent support.

“Sometimes, I really wished that Su Chenghui wasn’t my father,”

Huo Jinyao didn’t reply to that. He simply couldn’t understand the logic behind Su Chenghui’s actions today.

If Su Chenghui didn’t love Xiang Caiping anymore, why was he so angry when he learned that Su Peizhen was the one who harmed her?
