698 Phoenix Life (1)
Luo Xueyan didn’t understand why Mrs. Su made a mountain out of a molehill. Su Mingfeng was talented and handsome, so it’s natural for him to be picky. Looking at Mrs. Su’s troubled expression, she comforted her, “It’s nothing. Mrs. Su, you don’t have to be too worried. Look, my son is still unmarried as well. It takes time for them to find a suitable partner. If they get married rashly to someone incompatible with them, they’ll be unhappy for the rest of their lives.”
“Madam, you’re right.” Mrs. Su held Luo Xueyan’s hand and said with a smile, “I originally thought so, but Mingfeng is a taciturn person. He doesn’t tell me anything. I don’t know what he’s thinking at all.”
Luo Xueyan listened absent-mindedly. She had seen Su Mingfeng before and knew that he was very eloquent. She really did not want to continue discussing Mrs. Su’s family matters, so she changed the topic and asked, “Mrs. Su, don’t you want to know how to raise the sparrow?”
Mrs. Su glanced at the two birds in the bird cage and continued, pretending not to hear her, “Let’s talk more about my good-for-nothing son.”
Luo Xueyan was speechless.
“When Mingfeng was young, he liked a painting that his father brought back. He liked that painting so much that he lost interest in other paintings. However, that painting was given to someone by his father, so Mingfeng was sad for many years.” Mrs. Su sighed and said, “Mingfeng is a sentimental person. Everything he likes is the best. It’s precisely because of this that once he set his heart on something, he won’t change.”
Just as Luo Xueyan was wondering what she was driving at, she heard Mrs. Su continue. “It’s the same for women. Once he likes a woman, he won’t be interested in all the other women.”
Luo Xueyan smiled and said, “So Young Master Su already has someone he likes. I wonder who is so lucky.”
She asked this out of politeness, but she did not expect Mrs. Su to be waiting for her to ask this. She immediately clapped her hands and said, “She’s your daughter.”
Luo Xueyan’s face immediately turned pale. No wonder she talked nothing about the snow sparrows and kept praising her own son. So that was what she was driving at.
Seeing that Luo Xueyan did not look too happy, Mrs. Su was worried. She knew that the Shen family was rich and powerful, so they definitely did not care about the Su family’s assets. There were many families like the Su family in the capital who were willing to marry the daughter of the Shen family. In addition, she had seen Shen Miao with her own eyes today. Such a dignified girl would be the most suitable for the position of the first wife of a family.
Luo Xueyan’s expression turned cold. “Mrs. Su, is that why you came today?”
Mrs. Su was a little embarrassed. She knew that it was wrong of her to come uninvited to talk about this, but she still said, “Madam, don’t be angry. I know I’m being rude today, but as a mother, you should be able to understand me, right?”
Luo Xueyan’s expression softened. Mrs. Su came with a good attitude today, so Luo Xueyan didn’t flare up at her. She said, “Mrs. Su, why did you bring this up all of a sudden?” Luo Xueyan’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Shen Miao and Su Mingfeng were already dating in private?
