Chapter: 2806
He Yingquan had always been against Su Ruoli. He believed that everyone knew it was Elder Su who betrayed her. Given that situation, the He family should not have searched for Su Ruoli. Doing so only made it clear that Elder Su was their enemy.
He thought the best approach was for the He family to stay silent and do nothing. This way, Grandpa Su would see that the He family was loyal to the Su family and willing to accept whatever fate awaited Su Ruoli. In his mind, this would lead Elder Su to reward the He family. If Su Ruoli had to sacrifice her life for this, then at least it would be for a good cause.
Unfortunately, Su Ruoli’s death made He Yingxiu angry, and now Grandpa Su had to distance himself from the He family. This was a disaster for He Yingquan. Instead of gaining benefits from Su Ruoli’s death, the He family had lost everything. He thought it was very foolish.
Now, He Yingquan was desperate for the He family to mend their relationship with the Su family. Just as he was deep in thought, a helicopter landed smoothly in the courtyard. Before the blades stopped spinning, Su An jumped out and rushed towards He Hongsheng.
As soon as he reached him, Su An took He Hongsheng’s hand and said with respect, “Old He, it’s been a while!”
He Hongsheng could only smile wryly and replied, “Anshun, it’s been a long time. How have you been?”
Su Anshun sighed, “Not good at all. With my age, how could I be better?” He quickly added, “The master asked me to send his regards to you.”
He Hongsheng spoke about the past with a sense of guilt and regret. The master had wanted to come in person, but he was old and the journey was too difficult for him. So, he sent He Hongsheng in his place.
Feeling a bit flattered, He Hongsheng said, “Oh, why would Master Su miss me so much? I don’t deserve it.”
He quickly gestured for Su Anshun to come inside. “Anshun, it’s too cold outside. Let’s move inside to talk!”
Su Anshun nodded, shivering a bit. “Mocheng is freezing! I think it’s around minus 20 degrees, right?”
He Hongsheng replied casually, “Tonight’s low is minus 35 degrees.”
“Wow,” Su Anshun said with a grin, “That’s terrifying! Let’s get inside before I freeze!”
He Hongsheng led the way to the main hall. Once inside, Su Anshun couldn’t help but ask, “Old Ho, why is it so cold in here? Even in Yanjing, the heating keeps the rooms above 20 degrees. It feels like it’s below 10 degrees in this room!”
He Hongsheng smiled and explained, “The He family practices special exercises. We prefer the cold. That’s why we came to Mocheng. The main hall has a little heating to keep it above freezing, but in the children’s rooms, there’s no heating at all. It’s usually around minus ten degrees.”
“Goodness!” Su Anshun said, pulling his collar tighter. “Thank goodness I’m not part of your family, or I’d freeze to death!”
He Hongsheng chuckled at that.
He turned slightly and spoke to He Yingquan, who was following him. “Yingquan, please go get a basin of charcoal fire for Anshun and have someone turn on the heating.”
