Mom Song scolded discontentedly, "My daughter is focusing on her career. You shouldn’t always blame her."
She supported her daughter’s career ambitions. A woman needs to have her own career so she won’t be looked down upon by men.
Especially in a family like the Huo Family, without good conditions,
marrying into it would only bring grievances.
"What career? She’s already grown up. She should have married Shaohua long ago and had a child. That’s what’s important!" Father Song scolded Mom Song harshly, feeling that their daughter’s behavior was a result of her indulgence.
"No rush. She can get married whenever she wants." Huo Shaohua said calmly, his eyes looking ahead.
"Shaohua is more considerate, unlike you who don’t understand our daughter at all." Mom Song glared at Father Song and smiled as she praised Huo Shaohua.
Yi really found the right man; he’s from a good family and listens to her every word.
That’s what makes a good man.
Father Song was too angry to speak, unable to tolerate the mother and daughter.
Selfish and domineering, both in the same way.
"Uncle, Auntie, let’s rest at the hotel for a while and have dinner later."
"Shaohua, let’s go visit Grandma first. It’s been a while, and I miss her." Mom Song said with a smiling face, but her eyes showed disgust.
She disliked that old woman who always pressured Song Yi to get married and have kids.
Her daughter was not a breeding machine; why should she have to bear children for the Huo Family?
Yi didn’t have children, yet Shaohua was still head over heels for her.
Why rush to have children that would ruin the career she worked so hard to build?
"Grandma is out. She’ll be back in a few days."
"What a pity. So we won’t get to see Grandma." Mom Song said, pretending to be sad but with a smile in her eyes.
It’s better not to see her, avoiding another conflict with the old woman.
Dealing with her is truly troublesome.
"Shaohua, how is Grandma’s health?" Father Song asked with concern. Grandma Huo was a senior he respected a lot.
But because Yi didn’t want to get married, the elders of the two families had some unpleasantness.
He had always urged Yi to get married, but her mother intervened every time she wavered.
Their marriage was delayed, and gradually the Huo Family became estranged.
"Grandma is in good health." Huo Shaohua replied with a smile. He observed every move of Father Song and Mom Song.
Soon they arrived at the hotel, the finest under the Huo Group.
Arrangements were made for a luxurious suite for Father Song and Mom Song. Mom Song kept picking faults.
She complained about the bad environment, and the bed sheets and tables being dirty.
The room manager was so scared that his legs went weak, immediately arranging for a change of sheets and a thorough cleaning.
The manager knew she was the future mother-in-law of President Huo, so they dared not offend her.
"Shaohua, this place is terrible. You should renovate it and adopt some foreign styles." Mom Song pointed at the decoration of the room, expressing her dissatisfaction to Huo Shaohua.
Who would want to stay in such a shabby hotel?
"Auntie, I will consider your suggestion." Huo Shaohua replied with a small smile.
"President Huo, we have cleaned the room again. Is there anything else you need?" The manager approached, bowing slightly.
"That’s all. You can leave now." Huo Shaohua nodded in satisfaction, knowing the staff had done a good job.
But Mom Song was too picky, and he was used to it.
"Such impudence! Did we permit you to interrupt when talking to President Huo?" Mom Song scolded sternly, glaring at the manager.
"I apologize, Mrs. Song!" The manager hurriedly apologized.
"Leave now." Huo Shaohua frowned, displeased.
"Yes, President Huo." The manager turned and quickly left the room.
