Chapter 770: Feeling Shameful (Page 1/2)
Huo Qinghuan slowly put down the heavy luggage in his hands. His once sunny and handsome face now looked droopy, as if he had lost all his vitality. He said weakly, "Dad, Mom, I...I broke up with that Su He. I'm going to tell you the truth today. I ran into Su He and her man having dinner at a state-owned restaurant..."
Hearing this, Huo Junshan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Ever since he followed his father's advice and investigated Su He, and learned that she had been married in the countryside, he had been resentful of her.
Now that his son is completely separated from her, he feels less worried.
He stretched out his broad palm, gently patted Huo Qinghuan's shoulder, and said earnestly:
"Son, it's okay. Let's just break up! There are many good girls in this world. Dad will definitely introduce you to a better one next time. As for Su He, let the past be the past. Don't think about her anymore."
Xiao Ya, who was standing by, felt heartbroken when she saw her son in such a state.
She quickly walked to Huo Qinghuan, gently stroked his back, and whispered to him, "Son, don't be too sad.
It's inevitable that you'll encounter setbacks and disappointments along the way, but as long as you face them bravely and look forward, everything will slowly get better. Believe in yourself, and you'll find true happiness.
However, Huo Qinghuan shook her head and said with a wry smile, "Mom, I'm not particularly sad, I just feel a little uncomfortable.
I never thought that my first love would end in failure like this, and I was cheated by someone.
I used to think people should be sincere to each other and that kindness should come from the heart, but now it seems that some people can disguise their kindness so perfectly."
After saying this, he sighed deeply, his eyes revealing a hint of confusion and disappointment.
When Huo Junshan heard his son's words, he looked at him with a puzzled expression, "Son, you said kindness is also fake. Did Su He pretend to be kind in front of you?"
Huo Qinghuan nodded and said, "Dad, sometimes what we see with our eyes and hear with our ears may not be true.
I used to think Su He was gentle, kind, beautiful and generous, but in fact she is not like that.
She had previously stolen money from educated youth in the countryside and had several abortions. After she was admitted to university, she didn't want to get married to her nominal husband. But after learning that my family was well-off, she tried every possible means to pursue me..."
Huo Junshan and Xiao Ya looked at each other in disbelief. They couldn't believe what they had heard. Su He had actually been a thief! With such a bad character, they really didn't know how their son could have taken a liking to her.
Huo Junshan looked at his son with suspicion, wondering if there was something wrong with his son's vision. He smiled wryly and asked, "Son, how did she move you?"
Huo Qinghuan scratched his head, a shy look on his face, and said slowly: "Dad, to be honest, I didn't have any special feelings for her at first.
But later I heard that she had saved my deskmate's life, and she often came to school to play with my deskmate.
Gradually, classmates began to talk about her, saying that she was not only beautiful and generous, but also very kind-hearted, beautiful and warm, and always willing to help others. So, unconsciously, I started to pay more attention to her.
Having said that, Huo Qinghuan paused, as if lost in memories.
After a moment, he continued, "I have always treated her as an ordinary classmate.

But suddenly one day, she actually wrote me a love letter... From that moment on, everything was completely messed up. Plus, you guys kept mentioning me finding a partner, so I ended up getting together with her without thinking.
Huo Junshan shook his head helplessly, patted his son's shoulder gently, and said earnestly, "Son, it seems you really made a mistake this time.
But it doesn't matter. Everyone makes mistakes. As the saying goes, 'Every failure makes you wiser.' Let's learn from this setback in our relationship and try to open our eyes and find the right girl next time!
Huo Qinghuan slowly shook his head, his face full of bitterness and helplessness: "Dad, do you know what? As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years!
Ever since this breakup, I have developed a deep fear of dating a female classmate.
So, please don't force me anymore, mom. Let's wait a few years before dealing with this kind of thing.
Now, I am fully focused on my studies. Only by working hard to improve myself can I have a more secure future.”
Huo Junshan was shocked when he heard his son's words.
He could never have imagined that just after experiencing a broken heart, his originally sunny and cheerful son would become so timid that he even dared not to interact with female classmates.
Such cowardly behavior is not at all like the brave and fearless son he used to be.
He frowned and opened his mouth, wanting to continue persuading her.
However, at this moment, Xiao Ya beside him gently tugged at his sleeve, a hint of worry in her eyes: "Junshan, forget it, don't say anymore.
Since Qinghuan doesn't want to find a partner during this period, let's ignore him for now.
After all, love can't be forced. If we pressure him into a relationship and he acts on impulse and finds someone who's not suitable, it will be too late to regret it."
Xiao Ya was very worried. She was afraid that Huo Qinghuan would make the wrong decision because of their pressure.
She would rather give her son some time and space, let him slowly walk out of the shadows, regain his confidence and courage, and then face the love that belongs to him.
Huo Junshan sighed, "Well, study hard for the next few years, and then find a partner after you start working. Help your mother cook, and I'll go talk to your grandfather."
When Huo Qinghuan heard that his father was going to find his grandfather, his heart tightened. He instantly realized that his father was going to report to his grandfather about his breakup with Su He. His face instantly became gloomy, as if covered by a thick layer of dark clouds.
He frowned, his lips trembling slightly, and said anxiously, "Dad, are you really going to tell grandpa that Su He and I broke up?" There was obvious uneasiness and worry in Huo Qinghuan's voice.
Huo Junshan nodded without hesitation. "That's right. Your grandfather has always been concerned about you and is afraid that you'll be deceived. Now that you two have separated, it's natural for him to know about this."
Huo Qinghuan bit her lower lip, a trace of embarrassment and awkwardness on her face, and hurriedly advised, "Dad, let's not tell anyone about this embarrassing thing! It would be so embarrassing if it gets out."
However, Huo Junshan remained unmoved and replied firmly, "No, if I don't tell you, do I want your grandfather and sister-in-law to be worried about you forever?
Okay, you don't have to go with me. Even if it's embarrassing, I'll have to face it. Anyway, it won't be okay if you're not there." After saying that, he walked to the yard to ride his bicycle without looking back.
