Chapter 1314: Chapter 1314: Stood Up

For half an hour more, Su Qing had waited but no one arrived, and she gradually lost her patience. Being late for a blind date was one thing, but being half an hour late without showing up was unimaginable, and she couldn’t fathom how terrible someone so disrespectful and undisciplined might be in everyday life.

However, Su Qing’s stubbornness also kicked in; she wanted to see just how long the other person could be late.

Thus, Su Qing finished a pot of tea, even managed to visit the restroom in the meantime, and the owner even came over to chat for a bit; still, the man hadn’t arrived by noon.

Even the look in the eyes of the restaurant servers had changed.

“Noon, great,” Su Qing said coldly, suddenly standing up, paying the bill, and storming out.

When she arrived home, it was just in time for lunch, and the atmosphere around the dinner table was relaxed.

“Second sister hasn’t come back yet; she must be having a successful blind date,” Su Xiu said while serving more food to Su Xue, urging her to eat more as she smiled warmly.

“Eighty percent sure that’s the case, she must be eating out with the man, otherwise she wouldn’t miss coming back for lunch,” Su Xue said looking at her bowl piled up like a mountain, her face filled with worry. How was she supposed to finish all that?

Ah! Life had improved, and she had become choosier. In the past, when food was scarce, cooking meat even once was a delight, craved and cherished for a long time. Now that they were better off, with Big sister being so generous it was hard to resist, life had become more prosperous and food was abundant, offerings that were once unimaginable were now within reach.

Although Su Xue muttered to herself, she still cherished the food Su Xiu served and ate it bit by bit until it was all gone.

Compared to the joy of Su Xiu and the others, Su Wen and Zhou Hengyang were not so at ease, exchanging looks without speaking a word. Just then, sounds of the front door opening came from outside, and through the window, they saw Su Qing storming back.

“Oh! Second sister has come back.”

“Why does she look so angry?”

The always focused food-lover Su Jun, who usually just concentrated on eating, looked up puzzled, while the enthusiastic Su Xiu already dropped her chopsticks and excitedly ran outside to greet her.

“It’s over! Su Qing is upset.” Su Wen whispered into her husband’s ear, “Could it be your brother causing trouble?”

Zhou Hengyang, without even thinking, said, “Be confident, remove the ‘could be.'”

“Uh…” Su Wen held her forehead with one hand, saying with a headache, “Doesn’t this put you in a difficult position?” One side was her sister, the other his brother; Hengyang was stuck in the middle. If only she knew, she wouldn’t have let Hengyang help with the matchmaking—the heart matters were indeed tricky for outsiders to interfere with.

As much as Su Wen loved her sister, she didn’t want to put her husband in a difficult position; that was so unfair to Hengyang!

Thinking about it, she felt pained too.

Knowing his wife felt for him, Zhou Hengyang, with a doting smile on his handsome, resolute face, whispered softly, “Wife, do you feel for me?”

“Of course,” Su Wen scolded him playfully and rolled a slightly adorable white eye, defensively saying, “If not feeling for one’s own man, should one feel for some random man out there?”

“You dare!” Zhou Hengyang’s expression changed instantly, and he said through clenched teeth, “Don’t even think about it, otherwise I’d die.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, why speak such inauspicious words around the New Year? I was just joking, joking, understand?”

“Joking is also not allowed,” Zhou Hengyang firmly held Su Wen’s hand under the table, wanting to grasp it tight as if letting go even slightly would mean losing it. Yet, he feared that too much strength might hurt his wife.
