As a newcomer, she was watched by many people. His intimate behavior might be attracting more hatred. Although he behaved this way in Lin City, his behavior had seemed so attractive there.
She should just be grateful that he didnât call her honey in front of so many people. If he did, she would feel even more uncomfortable.
âThis is a specialty of Rong City. Have a taste,â Huo Jinyao said.
While he was speaking, Huo Jinyao picked up food for Su Qingsang again. Liu Tongjia, who was sitting on the opposite side of them, couldnât stand it anymore.
Liu Tongjia dropped her chopsticks noisily on the table and stared at the two people sitting in front of her.
âJust eat the food. Why are you behaving like this? What? She has no hands to pick up food by herself?â Liu Tongjia asked.
Noticing his motherâs anger, Huo Jinyao didnât change his behavior at all. In some way, his ambiguous expression seemed like a signal of provocation.
âShe has hands and can pick up food by herself, but I prefer picking up food for her and watching her eat. Mom, if you are jealous, you can persuade Dad to pick up food for you,â Huo Jinyao replied.
âHow can you talk to me in such a tone?â Liu Tongjia asked. She looked furious. âYou think everyone is as frivolous as you?â
âI donât think I am frivolous.â It seemed like Huo Jinyao was trying to provoke his mother. Huo Jinyao picked up food for Su Qingsang again while saying, âQingsang is my wife, and I like to take care of her. I think itâs great.â
Liu Tongjia was annoyed and wanted to say something, but she was stopped by Old Master Huo. Old Master Huo glimpsed at her and said, âThatâs enough, letâs eat dinner.â
Being stared down by Old Master Huo, Liu Tongjia couldnât utter any words, which really annoyed her.
Old Master Huo stared at Su Qingsang, with a kind expression. âQingsang, make yourself at home. If you want to eat something, you can tell Aunt Wang what you like. Whatâs more, donât feel uncomfortable with getting your food picked up for you.â
Su Qingsang started to feel more uncomfortable with everyoneâs eyes being on her.
She couldnât enjoy this dinner because she felt like she was being tortured.
The long dinner finally finished and everyone moved into the lobby.
The servant served the tea. The after-dinner fruits were cut into small pieces and were arranged very beautifully.
Su Qingsang didnât eat too much but she felt indigestion. She refused the after-dinner fruits passed to her by Huo Jinyao and sat beside Old Master Huo at the old manâs request.
Witnessing this, everyone felt surprised. They finally realized how much Old Master Huo thought of this eldest granddaughter-in-law.
As for Su Qingsang, she felt flattered because she didnât think that she was that adorable. She lacked experience when it came to getting along with the elder. She didnât know that the reason why Old Master Huo liked her was that he liked Huo Jinyao. As the wife of Huo Jinyao, Su Qingsang was liked by Old Master Huo.
âYou work at a hospital, is it arduous?â Old Master Huo asked.
âNo, itâs not bad.â Su Qingsang replied.
âIf you ever feel tired, you can tell Jinyao. He can promote you to another hospital.â Old Master Huo turned around and looked at Huo Jinyao. âYou should ask Little Cheng whether their hospital has a vacant post.â
Old Master Huo explained. âLittle Cheng grew up with Jinyao. His family runs a hospital chain that includes many AAA class hospitals. If you want to change jobs, you can just tell him. He will promote you to his hospital.â
Hearing that, Su Qingsang looked awkward. She wanted to explain but Huo Jinyao answered quickly.
âGrandfather, Qingsang doesnât plan to work in Rong City,â Huo Jinyao said.
Hearing that, everyone looked at Su Qingsang. The expression on Old Master Huoâs face became a bit colder.
âQingsang, you donât plan to work in Rong City? You donât want to stay in Rong City?â Old Master Huo asked.
