Chapter 200: Why Are You Here?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Su Ming had been a Confucian merchant for so many years, and he could be said to have perfected his ability to mediate.
Every word he said was reasonable, affectionate, and righteous. Regarding the arguments and disagreements just now, he avoided the important ones and praised them before gently putting them down. He reduced the matter to a small one. His methods were brilliant, and his words were also brilliant.
Su Qing heard his words and wanted to ignore him, but when she turned around, she saw Kong Yue’s encouraging gaze.
...“Since Grandpa has said so, Qingqing, don’t be angry. Let’s sit down,” Su Xing comforted her warmly.
Su Qing thought for a moment. After a while, she slowly sat back down. She didn’t want Kong Yue to be in a difficult position.
Su Yan looked at the amiable Su Ming and Feng Jing, who had tacitly agreed to Su Ming’s words, and widened his eyes in confusion. He didn’t understand why the two elders had suddenly stopped pursuing the matter.
Not to mention Su Yan’s family, even Su Qian and Su Shui didn’t understand what was going on.
The room instantly fell silent. Qin Xin wanted to say something else, but she was glared at by Su Ming.
The old man’s authority in this family was also inviolable, except towards people or things that he felt were profitable.
Without Feng Jing’s support, Qin Xin was like a paper grasshopper. No matter how much she wanted to jump around, she couldn’t do it, let alone Su Ting, who was frightened by the elderly lady’s words.
No matter how sinister and cunning the people from the second branch were, they were still inferior to Su Zheng, who held real power.
Because of what had just happened, the dishes on the long table had turned cold. Uncle Su and the kitchen manager were busy rearranging the dishes.
However, the warmth and friendliness made Su Qing feel very uncomfortable.
Suddenly, a servant hurriedly walked in from outside the door. He quickly walked up to the masters and said to Su Ming and Feng Jing, “Master, Madam, a lot of people suddenly rushed in. They said that they were here to pick Miss Su Qing up. We couldn’t stop them, and they’ve already entered the front hall!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a man had already appeared at the door. Su Qing turned her head and looked at Huo Qi, who was surrounded by bodyguards in suits.
“I wonder if Old Master Su and Old Madam Su will feel that it’s presumptuous to visit rashly. I just saw Third Uncle Su’s family at the door. Why did they leave so angrily?” Huo Qi asked with a casual smile on his face.
Huo Qi’s sudden appearance surprised everyone at the long table. What was this smiling overlord of B City trying to do?
He ignored everyone’s surprise and asked Su Qing with a smile, “Qingqing, did you bully others again?” This smile was even more sincere and gentle than before.
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Su Yan’s family, who had different expressions and looked a little guilty and nervous. However, he didn’t say anything and walked over to stand behind Su Qing. His expression changed slightly, as though he was thinking about something.
Su Ming was the first to react and talk to Huo Qi. “How can it be considered presumptuous? Since Young Master Huo is here, stay for a meal! Servants, add a chair and bowls and chopsticks.”
Huo Qi placed his hand on the chair behind Su Qing and replied cynically, “Thank you, Elder Su.”
His fingers curled up the long hair on Su Qing’s shoulder. His actions weren’t obvious, but he was still discovered by the brothers who were staring at their sister.
Su Xing frowned, feeling that Huo Qi was frivolous and rude. He said, “Young Master Huo, please take a seat.” As he spoke, he pointed at the chair that the servant had brought over and placed at the end of the long table.
Huo Qi smiled faintly and said bluntly, “I think it’s better to sit by Qingqing’s side.”
When Su Qing heard this, she frowned and looked up at him. She slapped his restless hand away and said coldly, “Stay away from me. Don’t touch me.”
After some thought, Su Qing still frowned and asked curiously, “What are you doing here?”
Huo Qi gestured for his bodyguard to bring the chair over and said to Su Qing with a smile, “I wanted to pick you up to go out and play, but I had something on at the last minute and needed to go out, so I wanted to come and visit you before I left City B. I didn’t want you to miss me when you couldn’t see me…”
Su Qing looked at him speechlessly and said, “Get lost.”
