Chapter 258: This Is My Wife.
“I invited you here today, not only to thank you for your support during this time, but also to give you a grand introduction to someone.”
While Huo Jinyao was speaking, Su Qingsang came up to him. He took her by the hand and let her face the crowd with him.
His hand tightly held hers. “Well, you must have known her by now, but I will introduce her again. This is my wife, Su Qingsang. Please give us your support for our future, thank you.”
He didn’t say any more, but everyone knew clearly what he had meant. This was Huo Jinyao’s wife, and it was clear what other people’s attitudes about his relationship should be.
Whispers from the audience did not unsettle Huo Jinyao in the slightest.
While speaking, he did not forget to glance at the Su Family, with a smile. His meaning was quite clear: Su Qingsang was in his protection, and the Su Family must think twice if they wanted to do anything that would hurt her.
Su Chenghui’s face went sour, and so did Su Peizhen’s. Even the steady and reserved Li Qianxue also frowned a bit. She had not expected Jinyao to care so much about Su Qingsang, an illegitimate daughter.
There was another person whose facial expression was not very pleasant, Qiu Yanbo. He didn’t care what other people thought, but he was displeased at Huo Jinyao’s speech. He also didn’t like Su Qingsang’s surprised, and somewhat moved, expression.
Music started, and the dancing began. Huo Jinyao took Su QIngsang to the dance floor.
“I don’t dance very well.” She had learned how to, but she still wasn’t very good at it.
“Don’t worry. Just follow my lead.” Huo Jinyao didn’t mind at all. He led her around in circles on the dance floor.
Su Qingsang looked up at him and said, “You were planning that speech in advance?”
“Of course.” He wanted to show the blind people of Lin City that he was protecting her.
“You didn’t have to.”
“Why? Didn’t you like it?” He was aware that the Su Family liked to embarrass her whenever they felt like it.
She thought he didn’t know about the last time, but he did. He had to let those people know who she was and that they had to behave more sensibly.
“No, it’s not that. Thank you.” Su Qingsang smiled at him. She didn’t care what people thought of her. She had been immune to the attitude of the Su Family for a long time. Still, she was touched by Huo Jinyao’s gesture.
“Don’t thank me. You are my wife; this is what I should do.” Huo Jinyao leaned closer to her ear and whispered, “Instead of a verbal thank you, I would like you to give me some more physical rewards.”
The corner of Su Qingsang’s mouth twitched as she got Huo Jinyao’s implication almost immediately.
“Sweetheart, I mean it,” Huo Jinyao whispered with an expectant face. “I always want you to take the initiative once. Why don’t you try it tonight?”
“Huo Jinyao.” He could never be serious for long, even on such occasions.
Su Qingsang did not want to talk to him. The music ended, so she took the opportunity to step back and successfully withdrew from his arms.
“Not so fast. I have something to show you.”
What? Su Qingsang wondered. Huo Jinyao took her by the hand and went outside.
“Let’s go. Follow me.”
