"Mrs . Su . . . " Huo Mian looked at Mrs . Su, her eyes wide from shock .
"Huo Mian, please don't misunderstand me . I'm not trying to separate you and your husband… I'm just asking . . . if you are really going to become single again, please give Su Yu a chance . He really really likes you… I've never seen him like someone so much, and as his mother, I feel for him . I know that you love your husband… but with all the media reporting otherwise, I don't really know what to believe . I don't know what's really going on, so… I've asked you here to talk about it face to face . "
"Mrs . Su… my husband and I love each other very much and our relationship is stable . We've known each other for many years," Huo Mian said honestly . . .
"Alright, if this is the case, just pretend we didn't have this conversation today . Please don't blame me for being ridiculous . Ha… honestly, even I think I'm being a little bit ridiculous, but I'm just a mother who loves her son… I really don't want to see him like that… he really likes you . Plus, I really like you too . Of course, if the two of you are not fated to be together, that's alright too . "
Mrs . Su was very open-minded . Hearing Huo Mian's rejection, she didn't say any more .
"Sorry Mrs . Su, I've disappointed you . "
"No no no, I'm the one who should be apologizing . As your senior, my actions are quite inappropriate for my status . Please don't tell Su Yu . With such a strong personality, he will definitely be angry with me," Mrs . Su reminded . . .
"Okay, I won't . "
"Good, then hurry up and eat . You shouldn't stay out for so long," Mrs . Su didn't get mad at Huo Mian for her rejection .
Rather, she was more than friendly with her . The truth was, Mrs . Su was actually a woman with innocent thoughts .
With all the bad news floating around and the fact that Mrs . Qin hated Huo Mian, she just thought that, if Huo Mian and Qin Chu were to separate… and she ended up single… that she could give Su Yu a shot .
That way, her son wouldn't have to suffer as much from his unrequited love .
However, since Huo Mian had already made it clear, she wasn't about to bring it up again .
When Huo Mian left the Su residence, it was already dark outside .
Just as the car that had her inside left, Su Yu's car came back .
The two cars passed each other, but because of the blackened windows on both of their cars, Su Yu didn't notice the person inside the Audi A8 .
"Mom… you didn't tell me you were having seafood for dinner?"
Su Yu was greeted by a table full of seafood as soon as he stepped into the house .
"I had a guest over, it's not for you . " Mrs . Su sat down in the living room, sipping tea .
"A guest? Who's privileged enough for my mother to invite them into our house?" Su Yu laughed, spinning his keys in his hands .
"Huo Mian . " Mrs . Su replied calmly .
"Who?!" Young Master Su was no longer laughing .
"Huo Mian, Huo Yuanjia's Huo (TL note: Huo Yuanjia's a famous martial artist in China), Mian as in sleeping - Huo Mian (TL note: Mian directly translates to sleep in Chinese) . " Mrs . Su even decided to spell it out .
She looked almost comical… Mrs . Su was also a rascal at times .
"Mom… are you joking around with me?" Su Yu was clearly doubtful .
"You can look at the surveillance if you don't believe me . . . "
"You invited her to our home?"
"Yep . "
"To eat seafood?"
"Yep . "
"Then… what were you trying to do?" Su Yu was truly speechless .
"I like her," Mrs . Su replied, completely unfazed .
"Mom… don't mess around . "
Su Yu clearly didn't believe her . . .
"You don't like her?" Mrs . Su asked while staring at her son's face .
Young Master Su's face immediately ruddied with embarrassment upon hearing his mother's acquisition . . .
"Don't change the topic . Tell me, why did you ask her to come?"
"Nothing really! I just showed her your childhood pictures . "
"WHAT?!" Su Yu truly lost it .
"Mom… please don't tell me that you showed her the picture of me when I was 100 days old… dressed in the stupid red belly wrap!" Su Yu was about to explode .
"Yep, that one!" Mrs . Su was looking incredibly proud of herself .
