Chapter 510 Use All My Strength to Love You
Su Yicheng looked back, and sure enough, it was Su Hongyuan and Jiang Xueli.
Su Hongyuan had a serious illness in the other year. Although he retired from the Su Enterprise after leaving the hospital, he didn’t seem to be recovering very well. His face still looked very bad right now.
However, this bad state of his didn’t affect the ferocity that he accumulated in the business world for many years. While he stood there, his look was still sharp, and his whole being alone exuded an inviolable spirit.
Su Yicheng didn’t say anything. Luo Xiaoxi naturally wouldn’t greet them without his permission.
In the end, Jiang Xueli broke the awkward silence. “You don’t even know how to greet your elders. How can you serve today’s guests with this kind of politeness?” She didn’t name anyone, but still scolded Su Yicheng and Luo Xiaoxi with her words.
Although Luo Xiaoxi had never dealt with such a middle-aged woman who liked to make trouble, she wasn’t afraid. She smiled and retorted, “Who are you, big sister? The hotel isn’t open for the public today, are you on the list of the wedding guests? If you come in without an invitation, you’re more than being ill-bred.”
Since Jiang Xueli showed up with the identity of an elder, she planned to play rough with Luo Xiaoxi, her new daughter-in-law. However, Luo Xiaoxi didn’t show any respect to her at all.
In fact, Luo Xiaoxi even asked the right question. She and Su Hongyuan weren’t invited to the wedding, but—
“Does a father still need an invitation card to attend his son’s wedding?” Jiang Xueli turned her face away with disdain as she sneered sarcastically. “I’ve never heard of it.”
Luo Xiaoxi didn’t beat around the bush. She said without hesitation, “That’s because you’re ignorant.”
Jiang Xueli came from a remote town. And after marrying Su Hongyuan, she became the object of everyone’s envy in her homeplace. In the eyes of old neighbors, Jiang Xueli, who once went abroad, was an experienced spokesman.
So now, the last thing that Jiang Xueli could stand was the contempt of others, especially when it came from the younger generation.
She turned around and glared at Luo Xiaoxi. “You…”
“What about me? Let’s talk about you.” Luo Xiaoxi didn’t bother to hide her disdain at all, she lightly looked at Jiang Xueli. “Big sister, next time when you treat yourself as an elder, pay attention to whether others regard you as an elder or not. Or else, you’ll be nothing but a joke.”
The implication behind her words was that Jiang Xueli was nothing in her eyes.
Jiang Xueli was so angry that her cheeks puffed out. “I’ve long heard that the daughter of the Luo family is different from ordinary rich young ladies. She would even dare to do anything. Well, to see is to believe! It’s true that Miss Luo is really different, since you’re cultivated by both Mr. Luo and Mrs. Luo!”
“You think I’m different from ordinary people? You mean I’m not ordinary?” Luo Xiaoxi smiled as she walked to Jiang Xueli. “Big sister, you’re really good at seeing things. However, if you mention my parents again, I’ll make sure you’re thrown out into the trash can outside!”
Jiang Xueli’s face changed. “What do you mean?”
“Don’t misunderstand, I’m not aiming at you.” Luo Xiaoxi emphasized each word that came out of her mouth. “What I mean is that women like you who only knows how to destroy other people’s family are all trash.”
“Yicheng!” Su Hongyuan, who was on the side, growled unhappily. “Did you marry such a woman?”
Su Yicheng protected Luo Xiaoxi beside him. “Judging from your current wife’s manners, you’re not qualified to question my taste of choosing a wife.”
“…” Luo Xiaoxi resisted the urge to burst into laughter, she couldn’t help but silently applaud for Su Yicheng.
His words not only countered Su Hongyuan, but also attacked his vision and the quality of his wife.
Su Yicheng and Su Jianan… they really were brother and sister, weren’t they? When they scolded people, they never used dirty words, but they could still make people mad.
Su Hongyuan gave a long and hard look at Su Yicheng, he stared at him for a moment. He suddenly calmed down. “If I didn’t come, were you not going to tell me about your marriage?”
Su Yicheng didn’t deny his words. “I never planned to inform you of anything.”
“…”
“…”
Su Hongyuan sighed, his tone became a little sad. “Yicheng, do you still hate me so much?”
“In the past, I really did hate you. However, in the past two years, you didn’t seem to be very well. You even lost your most beloved daughter. The company that you managed for so many years was also slowly getting out of your control. The woman who is accompanying you is someone who will divorce you and divide your family property before you go bankrupt…” Su Yicheng smiled. “Mr. Su, I have no interest in hating such a poor person.”
“…”
Su Hongyuan’s eyes gradually darkened, he didn’t say anything anymore. On the contrary, Jiang Xueli became emotional.
Jiang Xueli looked at Su Hongyuan incredulously and asked a-mile-a-minute, “What did your son mean? What did he mean that the company is out of your control? Isn’t the company getting better? What happened? Can you handle it or not?!”
“Shut up!” Su Hongyuan’s patience was on the verge of breaking, and he suddenly roared, “You won’t understand even if I told you the story!”
“…” Jiang Xueli was shocked. After a while, she came back to her senses and patted her chest. “Well then, answer my question. Will you go bankrupt?”
That’s right. Jiang Xueli didn’t care about what happened to the company, even whether Su Hongyuan was in trouble or not. She didn’t care about whether Su Hongyuan could cope with the company’s situation due to his current physical condition.
She only cared about whether the Su Group would go bankrupt or not, whether or not she could continue to be a rich wife.
Luo Xiaoxi looked at Jiang Xueli. She sadly found that although this woman had beautiful makeup on, but beneath her looks, it was as ugly as it could get.
However, no matter how hard Su Hongyuan tried to hide his feelings, the helplessness in his eyes still revealed his weakness and regret.
Perhaps, after so many years, Su Hongyuan finally realized that his cheating on his wife was a wrong decision. Even if Su Enterprise wouldn’t be destroyed by Kang Ruicheng, Su Hongyuan was still doomed to live a sad life in his old age.
Luo Xiaoxi suddenly understood why Su Yicheng didn’t hate Su Hongyuan anymore.
Indeed, there was no need to hate a poor person who brought disaster upon himself.
“Since you’re here, please go in. The banquet is about to begin.” Luo Xiaoxi changed into a polite tone as she greeted Su Hongyuan. Anyway, Su Hongyuan was still Su Yicheng’s father. He was her elder.
Su Hongyuan threw a look at the hotel, but didn’t step forward. He took out an old but very clean jewelry box and said, “I came here today to hand this to you.” Then, he handed the jewelry box to Su Yicheng. “This is what your grandmother gave to me when I married your mother. I heard that it was handed down from your mother’s family. After your mother left, I kept it for you. Today, it’s time to give it to you.”
Jiang Xueli’s face greatly changed, she then pretended to grab the jewelry box. “Su Hongyuan, that woman has already been dead for so many years, and you’re still keeping the things when you were married to her!?”
Su Hongyuan dodged her hand and protected the jewelry box. He didn’t let Jiang Xueli grab it. However, he truly didn’t expect that this would enact this kind of reaction from Jiang Xueli. Seeing that Jiang Xueli was about to make a scene, he roared, “Shut up!”
Su Yicheng took the box, his gloomy eyes were filled with ferocity. “Jiang Xueli, when you talk, you’d better pay attention to your words. Otherwise, please get out of here.”
Jiang Xueli looked at Su Hongyuan, who was furious, and then looked at Su Yicheng who was about to get angry. Her eyes suddenly turned red. She turned around and hit Su Hongyuan hard. “You have been staying in that dusty room often recently. Did you think of that woman who died early? After so many years, that woman…”
Su Yicheng narrowed his eyes. When he was about to ask someone to throw Jiang Xueli out, he suddenly saw Su Hongyuan raise his hand and slap Jiang Xueli in the face.
“Pa!”
The sound of the slap was crisp and loud. It wasn’t hard to imagine how heavy the slap was.
Jiang Xueli covered her burning and painful face; she couldn’t believe that Su Hongyuan really slapped her. She kept staring at Su Hongyuan, despite her eyes turning redder, she couldn’t cry.
Su Hongyuan didn’t even spare a glance at Jiang Xueli. He waved his hand and said to Su Yicheng, “I just want to give you the box. You guys go in.”
Su Yicheng didn’t say anything anymore and took Luo Xiaoxi into the hotel.
After walking for quite some distance, Luo Xiaoxi looked back and found that Su Hongyuan and Jiang Xueli were still entangled with each other. She pulled Su Yicheng’s hand and asked, “Is it really okay?”
Others might not know what Luo Xiaoxi meant with her question at the moment, but Su Yicheng understood what Luo Xiaoxi implied.
“It doesn’t matter anymore, for a long time now,” Su Yicheng said, “I used to hate him to the extreme, but I didn’t know when I have forgotten to hate him.”
Luo Xiaoxi asked curiously, “Why?”
She insisted on chasing after Su Yicheng for more than ten years, this was why she knew very well that whether he loved or hated someone, it was impossible to stop. Unless something particularly important happened that directly changed his life view.
Su Yicheng stopped and stared directly into Luo Xiaoxi’s eyes. “It’s because I have you now.”
Luo Xiaoxi pointed to herself in confusion. “What does it have to do with me? I didn’t do anything!”
Su Yicheng said, “After you truly fall in love with someone, you won’t have extra feelings and the strength to hate another person anymore.”
Because all his emotions were now concentrated on Luo Xiaoxi. Su Hongyuan wasn’t even worthy of his hatred. This was the reason why. The mind was so simple and unpolished.
Luo Xiaoxi smiled as she held Su Yicheng’s hand. “I’ll give you full marks for this reason!”
The haze brought by Su Hongyuan was swept away, and the two of them walked into the hotel hand in hand.
This hotel belonged to Lu Enterprises. In the downtown of the city where an inch of land valued an inch of gold, it had a garden of nearly a thousand square meters. The white European building, like a well-dressed noble standing in the center of the city, had become one of the most beautiful landmark buildings nearby.
Ever since the hotel was open, it had been regarded as the most popular five-star hotel among all countries. Whether it was the experience of staying in the hotel, or the hotel service. All the other hotels found it hard to follow.
Today, the hotel accepted their reservation. They only served the guests who were attending Su Yicheng’s wedding.
Su Yicheng looked at the decorations in the hotel. On the basis of luxury and elegance, it was being decorated with fresh air-luminescent flowers, it was full of fresh joy. The wedding photos of him and Luo Xiaoxi alongside the blessings which were written in different languages, were all hung in a place where the guests had to pass by. The whole hotel was both luxurious and vigorous…
