Arriving at the door of the study, Su Suli struggled to push it open.
Upon entering, she caught sight of Huo Zhongcheng's severe expression, and Su Suli hesitated, unable to suppress her emotions any longer; she suddenly covered her face and burst into tears.
"Old Huo, do you think I did something wrong with today's affair?"
With red, teary eyes, Su Suli cried out sorrowfully, "Old Huo, touch your conscience and tell me, where have I ever done wrong by Shiqian?"
"If I were that heartless stepmother, would I carefully select a wife for him?"
"Wouldn't marrying that uncouth country bumpkin suit him better?"
Su Suli's tone was full of grievance.
"I chose Ou Lianlian for him, isn't it because of her backing from the Ou Family?"
"Though she is but an adopted daughter, her character is rare and gentle."
"With Shiqian's job, coupled with his temperament, is it wrong for me to find him a gentle girl?"
Her grievances and sorrow made Huo Zhongcheng unable to utter a word.
