Chapter 517: Do You Have an Agreement?

Su Yayan followed Cheng Xiuqin upstairs. Instead of going to the main hall or Cheng Xiuqin’s room, she went back to Su Yayan’s room.
After Su Yayan got married, the room was empty. However, the decoration did not change. There were people cleaning the house every day, and it looked exactly the same as before.
Su Yayan walked around the room and met Cheng Xiuqin’s complicated gaze.
“Mom, what’s wrong? Didn’t you say Auntie had something to ask me? What is it?”
Cheng Xiuqin remained silent and continued to stare at Su Yayan.
Su Yayan got goosebumps from her stare. He cleared his throat and broke the silence first. “Mother, if you have something to say, just say it. There’s no one else here. Actually, Auntie doesn’t have anything to ask me, right?”
“Tell me honestly, did you have anything to do with Chenhuan’s recovery? Did you help treat him?”
Su Yayan opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but when she met Cheng Xiuqin’s gaze, all her words turned into one word. “…Yes.”
Cheng Xiuqin took a deep breath, and her expression changed. She paced around the room twice before asking, “I’ll ask you another question. You have to tell Mom honestly.”
Su Yayan’s heart skipped a beat. “… Please ask.”
“Are you and Huo Chenhuan really together because you like each other? Do you have some kind of agreement?”
“What? What agreement?” Su Yayan blinked in confusion.
“It’s like when you two get married, he will stand up for you, and you will treat him.”
“…”
Su Yayan never expected her mother to have such a wild imagination. She even came up with the idea of a prenuptial agreement.
While she heaved a sigh of relief, she did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Mom, what are you thinking about! How could we have such a thing?”
“Really?” Cheng Xiuqin looked at Su Yayan in disbelief.
Back then, Su Yayan suddenly changed her mind about marrying Huo Chenhuan. She even said that they were already in love with each other and that she would marry no one but him.
Even though the whole family could not dissuade her, there was still a shadow of doubt in their hearts. They were afraid that the two of them were just acting on impulse, and if they thought about it rationally in the future, they might end up becoming resentful partners.
Until yesterday, when she suddenly found out that Huo Chenhuan’s legs were cured. Cheng Xiuqin was happy at first, but after hearing what her husband and son said, she could not help but worry.
This worry inevitably led her to let her imagination run wild again, and she dug up what had happened earlier. She wondered if the two of them had made a deal that they did not know about before they got married, and the fact that Huo Chenhuan’s legs could recover was one of the conditions.
“Of course not. Mom, what are you thinking? Do I look like the kind of person who would take my happiness lightly? If I really wanted to strike a deal with him, I would have plenty of ways to do so. Why would I choose a method that would make me suffer the most? To get back at the scumbag, I would have to pay the price of my happiness. Mom, do you think I’m such an idiot?”
Cheng Xiuqin was rendered speechless by her daughter’s words. She also realized that she had taken things for granted just now. She immediately mumbled awkwardly, “It’s all because you were acting too rashly back then. You promised to break off the engagement, but you suddenly arranged another marriage for yourself. Furthermore, Huo Qihan’s family was really too infuriating back then. I’m just afraid that you married him out of impulse. After all, I’ve never heard you mention anything about him before..”
