Huo Jiwen was furious, but he knew he had to coax his mother into intervening.

So he half-squatted down in front of Qingyou and pleaded, "Mother, please, I'm begging you, just help me entertain the guests, I've arranged everything else."

Qingyou coldly replied, "No, I never take back what I've said."

Then he kicked Huo Jiwen, who was squatting in front of him, over, and said angrily, "Now I see, you are a disloyal and unfilial ingrate."

"He disregarded even his own mother's health for the sake of a woman."

"Get out of here, I don't want to see you."

Asking her to attend the wedding and greet guests is wishful thinking on the part of Char Siu Bao.

Huo Jiwen fell to the ground, his eyes filled with even greater disbelief.

"Mother, when did you become so heartless? I am your own son, how can you be so cruel?"

Qingyou said expressionlessly, "Ever since you disregarded your own mother for the sake of your daughter, argued with me, and made me sick, I no longer want to care about you."

"And when it comes to being ruthless and heartless, I'm far inferior to you."

This is just the beginning, and the char siu bao (barbecued pork buns) can't stand it.

That's what you call heartless and cruel, how he treated the original owner of this body in his previous life for the sake of the innocent girl.

She'll teach Char Siu Bao what true ruthlessness and heartlessness are.

Huo Jiwen's face turned extremely ugly. "Mother, are you really not going to do anything about it?"

Qingyou said, "I don't care."

Huo Jiwen stood up, took a deep breath and said, "Fine, I've experienced Mother's ruthlessness today. You still want to force me to give up marrying Lingqiao, don't you?"

"But I want to say it again, I will not give up on marrying her because of this."

Qingyou sneered, "Then get lost."

Huo Jiwen could tell that his mother was determined not to help, so he said nothing more and turned to leave the courtyard.

He's getting married tomorrow, and he can't possibly cancel the wedding just because his mother isn't helping to entertain the guests; that would be even more embarrassing.

He planned to invite the clan chief or the elder's wife to help with the reception and hosting, because he would never give up on the woman he loved.

He believed that once Lingqiao entered the family, his mother would gradually accept and compromise.
