Xiang Caiping said nothing, so Su Qingsang had to step forward to smooth things over. With her here and Shi Mengwan, the atmosphere became less tense.
Xiang Caiping gave Su Qingsang face, and the smile on his face was particularly bright when he faced her.
Su Chenghui kept looking at her and wanted to speak several times, but in the end he couldn't say a word. The meal ended in such a very embarrassing situation.
After dinner, because Shi Mengwan was there, he suggested going to sing karaoke. In the past, on Su Qingsang's birthday, the two of them could roar at the KTV all night.
But Xiang Caiping was here today, so Su Qingsang could only ask Xiang Caiping if he wanted to go
"Go. Since you go every year, let's go this year too."
There was a restaurant near Chaowenyuan, and Shi Mengwan had reserved a seat early. A group of people moved to KTV.
Su Chenghui followed and wanted to talk to Xiang Caiping, but Xiang Caiping ignored him. The atmosphere between the two people was really awkward.
After Su Qingsang and Shi Mengwan "released" several songs in succession, the atmosphere finally became better. Xiang Caiping said that she would not sing when she got old, so she would just listen to them singing.
Su Chenghui tried to sit next to her, but as soon as Xiang Caiping came closer, he immediately stood up and sat next to Su Qingsang.
After doing this twice, Su Chenghui finally sat in the corner and stopped moving. Because of the behavior of the two elders, Su Qingsang could only propose to go home first.
Huo Jinyao was noncommittal. Su Chenghui kept following Xiang Caiping, trying to get her into his car, but Xiang Caiping ignored him at all.
Su Chenghui got directly into Huo Jinyao's car. He was still thinking of stepping forward, but Huo Jinyao blocked his way.
"Dad, since Mom doesn't want to see you today, why don't you give her some time to calm down?"
Su Chenghui glared at Huo Jinyao, his tone a little bad for the first time: "What do you know? Get out of the way."
"Dad." Huo Jinyao's attitude remained unchanged, and there was even a faint smile on his face: "I really don't know anything, but it's getting late today, so I think it's better to do it next time."
Seeing that Su Chenghui never wanted to give up, the smile on Huo Jinyao's face also faded a little: "Today is Qingsang's birthday. Dad, you'd better talk to mom next time."
Su Chenghui stood still, finally glared at Huo Jinyao, nodded, and left with some reluctance.
Su Chenghui left, and Shi Mengwan didn't stay long. She waved to Su Qingsang and left.
Huo Jinyao sent Su Qingsang and Xiang Caiping home. Xiang Caiping looked at Su Qingsang and hesitated several times.
"Green mulberry—"
"Mom, you are tired today too. You should go back to your room and rest first."
By the end of the night, Su Qingsang probably knew what Xiang Caiping was angry about. It's just that she couldn't comfort her even if she wanted to.
"Qingsang, I, I-" Xiang Caiping had a lot to say, and Su Qingsang couldn't help but give her a hug: "Mom, you don't need to say it. I know everything."
"I'm fine. It's fine as it is now."
It was okay if she didn't say it. The more she said it, the more Xiang Caiping felt guilty and uncomfortable. Looking at Su Qingsang's overly calm face, one could tell that she was used to such neglect.
The tip of her nose felt a little sore, she nodded vigorously, turned around and quickly went back to her room.
Su Qingsang looked at her back and turned to face Huo Jinyao.
"What's wrong?" Huo Jinyao noticed that her face was not very good: "Are you unhappy? Are you angry too?"
"How is that possible? Why should I be angry?" Su Qingsang shook his head, she was not angry. Su Chenghui is used to forgetting birthdays and saying, "I just think my mother reacted too much."
