Chapter 445: I Won’t, I Will Never Forgive You.

When Su Qingsang knew she was not Xiang Caiping’s daughter, she had some time to get used to the idea.

However, Xiang Caiping learned the news without warning. How could she accept it easily?

She looked at Su Qingsang, feeling like she was betrayed by the whole world.

Su Chenghui betrayed her, and now Su Qingsang did the same.

Xiang Caiping couldn’t accept it. She glared at Su Qingsang, insisting on an answer.

“Why don’t you tell me? Go on. Say it.”

Su Qingsang looked at her hands, which Xiang Caiping had grabbed. Her voice was quiet.

“I am sorry. I thought about telling you, but you were injured at that time and I was afraid you couldn’t stand the excitement. Another reason was that I had no idea whose daughter I was at the time. I didn’t know where your daughter was either.”

“I asked my dad, but he didn’t tell me. The only thing I could do was guess, but I didn’t figure it out.”

“Later, I realized that it didn’t matter whose daughter I was. I didn’t care. I thought we could go on as we had before.”

During those days, Su Qingsang looked upon Xiang Caiping as her mother. She wanted the relations.h.i.+p with Xiang Caiping to last for the rest of her life.

“Mom.” Actually, it was inappropriate to call her mom at this moment, but Su Qingsang was not used to anything different.

She knelt in front of Xiang Caiping to look her in the eye. “I am sorry. I really didn’t know it before. I am genuinely grateful to you, and I look upon you as my own mother.”

Xiang Caiping looked at Su Qingsang. There was a fire blazing in her heart, making her want to scream.

“How do you find out now? Didn’t you say he was unwilling to tell you?”

When she spoke, she glared at Su Chenghui. Her stare was so ferocious it made him tremble.

Su Qingsang suddenly became silent. She didn’t know what to say. The truth was Huo Jinyao made a guess, and she went to do the DNA test.

Now, there was no point in talking about how she discovered the truth. The harm was done.

“I told her.”

Su Chenghui’s voice sounded odd at this moment. He looked at Xiang Caiping and didn’t avoid her stare this time.

“Caiping, I told her. It was my fault. You don’t need to blame Qingsang. Actually, she never meant to hurt you. You were not supposed to know since she decides to take you to Rong City. She made the decision to live with you.”

“Caiping, I know it may be hard for you to accept, but here is the truth. Qingsang is not your daughter, but Peizhen is.”

“I am sorry.”

Finally, Xiang Caiping loosened her grip on Su Qingsang, and she turned to face Su Chenghui. Her eyes were fierce, full of hatred.

“You knew I acknowledged Qignsang after I came back, right?” Xiang Caiping’s voice was sharp. “You came to me again and again because you wanted to tell me about this thing, right?”

“Yes.”

Su Chenghui nodded, facing Xiang Caiping’s anger.

“You had many opportunities to tell me, but you never used them, right?”

“Yes.” Su Chenghui didn’t deny it. “At that time, at the very beginning, I was unable to tell the truth, and as time went on, I found I simply couldn’t do it.”

“You… to take revenge, you gave my daughter to the woman I hate most in the world.”

Su Chenghui closed his eyes. He couldn’t argue about that; nor did he have anything to say.

Xiang Caiping suddenly reached out, grabbed the gla.s.s from Su Qingsang’s hand, and threw it at Su Chenghui.

Su Chenghui didn’t dodge the blow. The gla.s.s. .h.i.t his chest, fell on the ground, and smashed into pieces.

Su Qingsang wanted to stop, but it was too late. She saw Su Chenghui get hit by the gla.s.s and soaked by the water that spilled out.

She felt bad for no reason. Her lips moved, but she couldn’t say anything even if she wanted to.

“Su Chenghui, why don’t you go to h.e.l.l?”

Xiang Caiping was furious. Her chest rose and fell, and her face was no longer peaceful and quiet; instead, she looked hideous with anger.

“What right did you have to send my child away for other people to raise her? How dare you play with the life of my child? What did you tell me when you took my daughter away? You said you would take care of our daughter, that you would give her all the best! So that’s what you meant when you promised you would give her the best life!”

Su Chenghui had no excuses. Under the circ.u.mstances, he did decide that to give her all the best, he had to raise Su Peizhen as a legitimate child.

“Su Chenghui, what made you think you had the right to do that?”

Xiang Caiping was angry and full of hatred. She was also heartbroken and remorseful.

She felt even worse right now than she had when she discovered Su Chenghui ignored Su Qingsang and failed to take proper care of her.

“Did you think that because you turned my daughter into a lady of the Su Family, I would be grateful to you?”

“Did you think that I would forgive you because you made my daughter the granddaughter of the Li Family? No way.”

“Let me tell you, I will never, never forgive you. You made my daughter see my enemy as her mom. Did you think you were acting for her good?”

“Did you believe you were doing her good by giving her property and money?”

“Su Chenghui, you have no idea about love. You have no clue.”

“I tell you. Never expect me to forgive you. It is impossible.”

Xiang Caiping pointed at Su Chenghui. She was so overwhelmed with anger that she couldn’t think straight.

“Never. Su Chenghui, I never forgive you. I will hate you for the rest of my life.”

Su Chenghui turned pale. He looked more exhausted than ever before. He said, “Caiping, it was a spur of the moment decision. I regretted it almost as soon as I made it. I know you blame and hate me. But at that time, I only acted for our daughter’s good.”

“For our daughter’s good? Why don’t you say your own good?”

Xiang Caiping deciphered his lie ruthlessly: “All you wanted was to take revenge on Li Qianxue. However, you were at your wits’ end, and you didn’t see another way of dealing with her. Therefore, you came up with this spiteful idea. It was never about your wish to give all the best to our daughter. You only wanted revenge.”

Xiang Caiping gave a long speech, and when she finished, she felt like all her strength was exhausted.

She lowered her head, glancing at the shards of gla.s.s on the floor. There was a lot more she could say, but she had no energy.

“Su Chenghui, I am extremely disappointed in you.”

She still remembered the young man who had been high-spirited and ambitious.

He said he was going to make a lot of money and give her a better life. She was naive enough to believe his promise back then.

Where did it go wrong? The young man grew up and became a successful businessman.

Xiang Caiping felt nothing but exhaustion after she lost her temper. Right now, she hated not only Su Chenghui but also herself.

She shouldn’t have come back. She shouldn’t have appeared here. She shouldn’t have tried to find her daughter.

If she had done none of these, she would never have found out the truth: that Su Chenghui had become such a despicable person.

She could have maintained one last bit of illusion. She could have believed her daughter was living a happy life, unlike now.

Yes, even though Su Peizhen had become the young lady of the Su Family, Xiang Caiping was not happy.

Xiang Caiping accused Su Chenghui of many things, but none of them was as hurtful as this one.

She was disappointed in him. He knew what he had done was unthinkable.

He had done this to her, to Xiang Caiping, whom he had treated like a sister since they were little and thought of as his family.

Su Chenghui didn’t know what else he could say. He froze in place, paralyzed.

“You should go.” Xiang Caiping closed her eyes, not looking at Su Chenghui. She turned away, unwilling to take another look at him.

Su Chenghui sat still. He looked at Xiang Caiping with complicated feelings.

“Get out,” Xiang Caiping pointed in the direction of the door. “Get out. I don’t want to see you again.”

When Su Chenghui didn’t move, she was suddenly furious. She disregarded the fact that she was still in recovery from her injury, pushed herself to her feet in a rush of anger, dashed to Su Chenghui, and pulled on his arm.

” Get out of here! If you don’t go now, I’ll kick you out.”

Looking at Xiang Caiping, who was mad and out of control, Su Chenghui stood up.

“Caiping, I am sorry.”

“Get out.”

Xiang Caiping tugged at his arm and tried to push him out of the door.

“Caiping…”

“Go!”

Xiang Caiping became agitated by his presence. Seeing that, Su Qingsang stepped forward.

“Dad, you should probably leave.”

Xiang Caiping was emotional right now. It was not a good time to talk.

Su Chenghui looked at Su Qingsang. He felt sorry not only for Li Qianxue and Xiang Caiping but also for Su Qingsang.

“Qingsang, I…”

“Please leave,” Su Qingsang hurried him.

With him being here, things would only get worse. Su Chenghui understood that, so he stepped back and looked at Xiang Caiping and Su Qingsang.

“Qingsang, I’m sorry.”

He owed her an apology. He would not evade it.

Su Qingsang paused. She felt astonished at hearing his father say this to her.

Xiang Caiping looked at Su Qingsang. She was about to ask her to leave, but it occurred to her at this moment that she was in Su Qingsang’s apartment.

This realization irritated her. She grunted and pushed Su Chenghui away.

She turned to face Su Qingsang, who stood across her.

She gazed at Su Qingsang, and Su Qingsang stared at her, too. Their eyes met. The would-be mother and daughter, who used to be so close, now ended up in silence.

Su Qingsang didn’t have the slightest idea of what she could say right now. She felt like whatever she wanted to say would be wrong. The more she tried to fix everything, the more mistakes she would make.

Xiang Caiping stared at her. She had some understanding of Su Qingsang after living with her during the past few months.

“You have acknowledged Li Qianxue, haven’t you?”
