As a newcomer, she was watched by many people. His intimate behavior might be attracting more hatred. Although he behaved this way in Lin City, his behavior had seemed so attractive there.
She should just be grateful that he didn’t call her honey in front of so many people. If he did, she would feel even more uncomfortable.
“This is a specialty of Rong City. Have a taste,” Huo Jinyao said.
While he was speaking, Huo Jinyao picked up food for Su Qingsang again. Liu Tongjia, who was sitting on the opposite side of them, couldn’t stand it anymore.
Liu Tongjia dropped her chopsticks noisily on the table and stared at the two people sitting in front of her.
“Just eat the food. Why are you behaving like this? What? She has no hands to pick up food by herself?” Liu Tongjia asked.
Noticing his mother’s anger, Huo Jinyao didn’t change his behavior at all. In some way, his ambiguous expression seemed like a signal of provocation.
“She has hands and can pick up food by herself, but I prefer picking up food for her and watching her eat. Mom, if you are jealous, you can persuade Dad to pick up food for you,” Huo Jinyao replied.
“How can you talk to me in such a tone?” Liu Tongjia asked. She looked furious. “You think everyone is as frivolous as you?”
“I don’t think I am frivolous.” It seemed like Huo Jinyao was trying to provoke his mother. Huo Jinyao picked up food for Su Qingsang again while saying, “Qingsang is my wife, and I like to take care of her. I think it’s great.”
Liu Tongjia was annoyed and wanted to say something, but she was stopped by Old Master Huo. Old Master Huo glimpsed at her and said, “That’s enough, let’s eat dinner.”
Being stared down by Old Master Huo, Liu Tongjia couldn’t utter any words, which really annoyed her.
Old Master Huo stared at Su Qingsang, with a kind expression. “Qingsang, make yourself at home. If you want to eat something, you can tell Aunt Wang what you like. What’s more, don’t feel uncomfortable with getting your food picked up for you.”
Su Qingsang started to feel more uncomfortable with everyone’s eyes being on her.
She couldn’t enjoy this dinner because she felt like she was being tortured.
The long dinner finally finished and everyone moved into the lobby.
The servant served the tea. The after-dinner fruits were cut into small pieces and were arranged very beautifully.
Su Qingsang didn’t eat too much but she felt indigestion. She refused the after-dinner fruits passed to her by Huo Jinyao and sat beside Old Master Huo at the old man’s request.
Witnessing this, everyone felt surprised. They finally realized how much Old Master Huo thought of this eldest granddaughter-in-law.
As for Su Qingsang, she felt flattered because she didn’t think that she was that adorable. She lacked experience when it came to getting along with the elder. She didn’t know that the reason why Old Master Huo liked her was that he liked Huo Jinyao. As the wife of Huo Jinyao, Su Qingsang was liked by Old Master Huo.
“You work at a hospital, is it arduous?” Old Master Huo asked.
“No, it’s not bad.” Su Qingsang replied.
“If you ever feel tired, you can tell Jinyao. He can promote you to another hospital.” Old Master Huo turned around and looked at Huo Jinyao. “You should ask Little Cheng whether their hospital has a vacant post.”
Old Master Huo explained. “Little Cheng grew up with Jinyao. His family runs a hospital chain that includes many AAA class hospitals. If you want to change jobs, you can just tell him. He will promote you to his hospital.”
Hearing that, Su Qingsang looked awkward. She wanted to explain but Huo Jinyao answered quickly.
“Grandfather, Qingsang doesn’t plan to work in Rong City,” Huo Jinyao said.
Hearing that, everyone looked at Su Qingsang. The expression on Old Master Huo’s face became a bit colder.
“Qingsang, you don’t plan to work in Rong City? You don’t want to stay in Rong City?” Old Master Huo asked.
