Seeing Su Qingsang jump to Huo Jinyaoâs defense, Qiu Yanbo was a little surprised.
Su Qingsang had lived at school when she was a child, so he hadnât see her a lot.
Once in a while, when he had seen her, she was like a shadow. This was the first time she had defended a man like this.
With his eyes squinted, something crossed Qiu Yanboâs mind when he saw the defensive look on Su Qingsangâs face.
After saying this, it occurred to Su Qingsang that Huo Jinyao hadnât sent her any messages after the dinner photo the previous day.
She couldnât tell how she felt. Was he just really busy or...?
âYou talk big. If you are actually this brave, then...â
Su Peizhen was stopped by Li Qianxue. âAlright, Peizhen. You havenât greeted your grandfather yet.â
Today was Qiu Yanboâs birthday. His grandfather was here, so Li Qianxueâs father had come along.
Se Peizhenâs grandfather was old and had even had a stroke before. From his stroke on, he had stayed in the village and seldom showed up to occasions like this, which had so many people.
This time, hearing that his future grandson-in-law was having a birthday party, he came over to see him.
If it had to be decided who was the most popular person in the Su family, it definitely was not the son of Su Chenghui and Li Qianxue, Su Yuxin, but Su Peizhen.
Li Qianxue, her father, and even Su Chenghui, all loved Su Peizhen. That explained her arrogance.
Su Peizhen was from a rich family, good-looking, and almost flawless. If there was anything for her to complain about, it was having a half-blooded sister, Su Qingsang.
Su Qingsang was the shame of the family. Because of this, Su Peizhen and everyone else in her family treated her poorly.
Su Qingsang was aware of this. Therefore, she normally didnât go anywhere near Li Qianxueâs father.
She just wasnât lucky that day. After Su Peizhen greeted her grandfather, someone came over to Su Qingsang.
Su Qingsang had met Li Qianxueâs father a couple of times before, but not often. After all, she was in an awkward spot in the family.
Liâs family was among the top in Lin City. Grandpa Li was an excellent businessman, but only had one daughter, Li Qianxue.
In his mind, Su Chenghui definitely didnât deserve Li Qianxue. He had to agree on their marriage because Li Qianxue liked him.
Su Chenghui was so fickle that he cheated on his wife and had an illegitimate daughter not long after their marriage, which had become a joke among the upper class in Lin City.
A smile appeared on Grandpa Liâs face, so the converstion he had had with Su Peizhen must have been pleasant. He was old but still looked energetic.
Seeing this cheerful man, Su Qingsang barely dared to breathe out loud.
âGood evening, Mr. Li.â She didnât have the right to call him grandpa. This didnât affect her attitude.
She was neither humble nor pushy. She gave all the respect he was owed but was not intimate.
âI heard that youâve got your masterâs degree?â He seemed a bit indifferent. He never cared about the illegitimate daughter of his son-in-law.
He would have forgotten her if he hadnât see her.
âYes.â Actually, she had graduated almost a year ago and had even gotten her practice license. Grandpa Li didnât live in Lin City, though. No wonder he didnât know.
âSo youâre 24 years old?â
âI am 25 actually.â
Not knowing his intention, Su Qingsang looked alert.
âI have an old friend who visited me a while ago. He mentioned that his grandson is not married yet. Maybe you can meet each other someday.â
