347 Vase?
Huo Feng was a little puzzled. After glancing at Wu Yu and Su Qing’s backs, he turned to look at his young master and continued, “Director Wu also said that Young Madam is the special consultant of the police and the military? Tsk, tsk, tsk! I feel that if Young Master can really marry Young Madam, our Huo family should be able to earn a lot of benefits!”
Huo Feng thought about his Young Madam’s unfathomable and mysterious background and ability and felt that his words were right.
When Huo Qi heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at him. If it weren’t for the smug expression on Huo Feng’s face, he would have thought that Huo Feng already knew about Su Qing’s proposal to him!
Huo Qi sighed softly and pretended to be calm. “That’s right. I wanted to protect her! Who knew…”
Who knew that his wife’s background and connections were so solid?! There was nothing that she needed to help with. It was as though ever since he met Su Qing, the insufferably arrogant Mr. Huo had really become a useless vase.
Huo Qi thought for a moment and didn’t tell Huo Feng that Su Qing had proposed to him just now. Firstly, that wasn’t the marriage and love that Huo Qi really wanted. Secondly, he felt that he was still a long way from making Su Qing really fall in love with him. Mr. Huo, who had long been prepared to fight a protracted battle, wouldn’t care about this momentary loss!
Yan Bei, who had been forcefully pulled away by Mrs. Yan just now, was looking at his mother in displeasure and confusion. “Mom! I won’t allow you to frame Su Qing like this!”
As he spoke, he shook off Mrs. Yan’s hand in confusion and looked down at Mother Yan, who had been nagging at him along the way. “I don’t understand! Why are you so hostile to Su Qing even though it’s the first time you see her? Don’t think that I don’t know that you deliberately made things difficult for Su Qing and Auntie Su just now. I just saw that there were many people at that time, so I didn’t want to argue with you! Su Qing is such an outstanding girl. How can you bear to say that about her?”
Mrs. Yan looked at her youngest son, who had flung her arm away, in surprise. After taking a few deep breaths, she said bluntly, “Did I say anything wrong? Su Qing is a woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. We don’t even know which slum she came from. How is she worthy of my son? Look at her uncultured appearance. How is she worthy of your liking? Could it be that you liked her because she’s beautiful? Looks can’t feed you! You silly child, don’t be deceived by her appearance! Look at her methods. On one hand, she’s holding on to someone like Huo Qi, but on the other hand, she’s deliberately seducing you. How can you like such a mercenary and shameless woman? So listen to Mommy and stay away from her! We can’t afford to provoke her, but we can still hide.”
Yan Bei looked at his mother’s mean and sarcastic expression and felt that she was very unfamiliar. This seemed to be the opposite of the gentle and kind mother in his heart.
At this moment, the mother and son seemed to have fallen into a strange circle. Yan Bei was surprised by Mother Yan’s inconsistency, and Mother Yan was sad about the complicated unfamiliarity and rejection in her youngest son’s eyes.
Mrs. Yan gritted her teeth and pretended to be cold. “Before you fall too deeply into it, Mommy asks you to forget about this girl as soon as possible! Anyway, your father and I won’t agree to such a girl entering the family! There’s no possibility!”
When Yan Bei heard this, he looked at his mother for a long time before suddenly sneering and mocking, “Not to mention that Su Qing hasn’t been treating me nicely, even if she really wants to seduce me, that’s what I want the most at this moment! You’re my parents, but you have no right to stop me from liking anyone! I like her!”
Mrs. Yan had never thought that her youngest son would be so rebellious.
She felt that they had been too compliant with Yan Bei’s wishes in the past.
This noble lady, who had always been gentle and graceful, seemed to have suddenly become a different person. She looked at her son coldly and said sternly, “I’ve spent so much energy and financial resources to nurture you. Why don’t I have the right to control you?! I’ve indulged you too much in the past, which led to you being so lawless and self-righteous! Go back to your room!”
