Chapter 348: The Primary Culprit

If the Su Family had not treated Su Qingsang so coldly for so long, she would not have accomplished as much as she had.

She had graduated medical school at the age of 25. She was even planning to get a Master’s Degree. She had been working very hard since she became a third year intern and was now a highly regarded talent in the hospital.

Xiang Caiping had already stopped crying. Her breathing, however, was still uneven and her throat was still blocked. Such emotions as hers couldn’t be cooled off simply with a sentence or two from Su Qingsang.

Regardless of how well off Su Qingsang was right now, nothing could make up for Su Chenghui’s negligence of her. She also could not come to peace with or forget about being abandoned by her own mother.

Xiang Caiping felt like the primary culprit.

Yume didn’t quite understand what they were talking about. She popped her head over from the front seat and asked softly, “Missy Qingsang, is your mom alright?”

“She is fine,” replied Su Qingsang as she shook her head. She then signaled Yume not to ask any more questions.

Yume was a very famous guide in Japan. She not only knew Mandarin and English, but she also had a good understanding of the customs and practices of many countries.

Therefore, she didn’t ask more once she saw Su Qingsang’s signal.

Finally, after several minutes, Xiang Caiping finally calmed down. She was clearly still feeling low and dejected.

Su Qingsang knew that she couldn’t persuade her to cheer up. She didn’t want to either. Instead, she started to think about another matter.

This was a very famous ryokan, but she hadn’t expected to bump into Su Peizhen and the rest of her group there.

She hadn’t anticipated this conflict. She didn’t think that Su Peizhen would have expected to bump into her either.

She didn’t know if Su Peizhen and her friends would leave after the ruckus just now. More trouble would surely ensue if they bumped into each other again.

Should she suggest to Xiang Caiping to move to another ryokan?

Once the thought surfaced, she began inquiring with Yume whether there were any other comparable ryokans in the vicinity.

Yume knew a place very well and began telling them about it.

Suddenly, Xiang Caiping, who had been feeling low, looked up and said, “Change our ryokan? We are not moving.”

“Mom?”

“Why would we move? They should be the ones moving.”

Xiang Caiping had been thinking a lot about what had happened just now. She was now under the impression that Su Qingsang had been a pitiful little girl who had been oppressed in the Su Family.

Even though Su Qingsang had repeatedly reassured her that she had led a good life, she couldn’t believe it. She could only think that Qingsang was lying to her.

“You have been giving in to them for all these years. How have they been treating you like this for all this time?”

Xiang Caiping’s voice was very soft. It was so soft that only Su Qingsang, who sat very close to her, could hear her. She could also hear the anger in her voice.

Su Qingsang could only sigh helplessly. “I have really had a good life all these years, Mom.”

If one looked beyond the fact that she hadn’t gotted the things that she had longed for, and the indifference that everyone in the Su Family had shown her, she had indeed been well fed, well clothed and hadn’t lacked any allowance money.

She had wanted to earn her own keep by working part-time so that she could cut herself off from the Su Family. She had dismissed the thought, however, when Su Chenghui had bought a house for her.

She had then focused all her efforts on her studies. Therefore, her grades had been better than most other people’s.

“A really good life.”

“Don’t lie to me.”

Xiang Caiping would not listen to her explanations. She had decided to stick to what she stubbornly thought to be true.

She was totally helpless. She glanced at Yume and asked, “How long before we get there?”

“Almost there.” Yume knew that she could now do what she did best. She turned over to introduce the place that they were visiting next.

Su Qingsang felt somewhat relieved. Since Xiang Caiping didn’t want to move to another place, she could only hope that they would not bump into Su Peizhen and her friends again.
