Su Chenghui was anxious. Without thinking, he got out of the car and went around to the other side of the car door, blocking Li Qianxue's way.
"Qianxue, I know you won't believe me. I also know that in your heart, I am a person without credibility. But now, you don't even know what's going on. You're saying that Xiang Caiping is trying to steal your daughter. Even if you're unhappy, shouldn't you investigate it first? "
"Do we still need to investigate?" Li Qianxue glared at Su Chenghui. "This is Qingsang and Huo Jinyao's home. What is she doing here? What do I need to investigate? Didn't she just want to take revenge on me? She's taking revenge on me for stealing her man. She's taking revenge on Jinyao and Qingsang for sending Su Peizhen to prison. Isn't that right? "
"If that's the case, how could Qingsang treat her like that? You have to believe that Qingsang is not a brainless person. "
"She has brains, but she has one big weakness. She's too sentimental. "
Li Qianxue looked at Su Chenghui. In fact, she didn't understand who Su Qingsang, who didn't want to offend anyone and treated everyone as a good person, was like.
Su Chenghui took a step forward and put his hand on Li Qianxue's shoulder. "Qianxue, you know that Qingsang values relationships. What are you trying to do by directly approaching him like this? Drive Xiang Caiping away? Haven't you thought about Qingsang? I'm really not speaking up for Xiang Caiping. I just want to tell you that if you go up like this, you'll put Qingsang in a difficult position. "
"She's making things difficult for me too." Li Qianxue waved his hand away. Her face was full of displeasure. "Su Chenghui, get out of the way."
"Qingsang is pregnant." Su Chenghui pressed on her shoulder again. "I'm begging you, okay? Calm down first. Even if, even if you want to chase Xiang Caiping away, can you wait until Qingsang isn't around? "
Li Qianxue glared at him. There was a fire burning in her chest that couldn't be quelled. His chest heaved up and down a few times before he finally nodded heavily.
"Alright. I'll wait. "
She turned around, opened the door, and got in again. Su Chenghui got in the car as well.
"Get down." Li Qianxue didn't look friendly to him at all. "I don't want to see you."
"Qianxue." Su Chenghui tried to shake her hand, but she avoided it. He sighed softly, "Do you think it's more appropriate for me to ask? Just let me help you this once, okay? "
"Help me? Or help your old lover? "
Li Qianxue's words had never been polite. Ever since the divorce, she had never been polite to Su Chenghui.
Su Chenghui was helpless, but he didn't want to refute anymore. "Qianxue, time will prove everything."
Su Chenghui's eyes looked so sincere that Li Qianxue could even see herself in them.
His gaze made Li Qianxue, who had wanted to mock him, shut up. She turned her face away and refused to look at him again.
The car stopped at a nearby hotel. Coincidentally, Su Chenghui had wanted to come here before, so he had booked a room here.
He knew how Su Qingsang felt about him, so he didn't want to move into his son-in-law's house. When Li Qianxue was about to get a new room, he took away her ID.
"Su Chenghui, what are you doing?"
"I booked a presidential suite. There are three rooms. It's enough for us. Don't waste it."
"I don't know. Since when can I not even pay for a hotel?"
Li Qianxue sneered and reached out to take the ID in Su Chenghui's hand.
"Qianxue, I'll go find Qingsang tomorrow and ask her what's going on. If you stay here, won't you be the first to know the news? "
Su Chenghui admitted that he had selfish motives. In the past half a year, Li Qianxue had been eager to stay far away from him. He knew that he deserved it, but he still hoped that he could have more opportunities to get close to Li Qianxue.
"I can also know if I stay in the room next to yours." Li Qianxue reached out to him persistently. "Give it back to me."
"Qianxue." The receptionist was still looking at them. Su Chenghui put her ID in his pocket and handed his to the receptionist.
"Hello, I'll take the key."
"Su Chenghui." Li Qianxue was always elegant, and she didn't want to lose face in front of others. She approached Su Chenghui and said in a low voice that couldn't hide her anger, "That's enough. Don't think that just because I'm not going to look for Qingsang now, I'll do as you say. "
"I know." Su Chenghui had already been a rascal too many times today, so he didn't mind being a rascal again. "I know you're doing this for Qingsang's sake. Then let's do it again. "
After getting the key, he put his arm around Li Qianxue's shoulder and took her upstairs without a care for anything else.
Li Qianxue's expression was stiff until she entered the room. She stood at the door and refused to go any further.
Su Chenghui walked in front of her and stood still. He raised his hand and placed it on the door behind Li Qianxue. Li Qianxue's body instinctively stepped back. Her hand was on the handle of the suitcase, and her body was slightly stiff.
"Qianxue, I won't do anything. You don't have to worry. "
"I have nothing to worry about." Li Qianxue's expression didn't change. Because of Su Chenghui's words, she actually relaxed. She gently pushed him, walked past him, and walked inside. "After all, you once said that everything about me makes you sick. You're not interested in me."
Su Chenghui felt that he had been hit by another arrow. He looked at Li Qianxue's slim and elegant back, and a hint of bitterness appeared on his face.
If he could go back in time, he would definitely wake up Su Chenghui, who had said those nonsense words.
Li Qianxue entered the door and changed her clothes. She found Su Chenghui sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. He looked out of the window in a daze.
Hearing the sound of Li Qianxue going out, he stood up.
"Qianxue? Where are you going? "
Li Qianxue stood up straight and her gaze was slightly cold. "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"Qianxue –"
"Su Chenghui, let me remind you that we're divorced."
Su Chenghui followed behind her. "Are you going to eat? Why don't we go together? "
"No need." Li Qianxue didn't stop walking. "I won't be able to eat if I see you."
The moment she opened the door, she suddenly turned around and faced Su Chenghui. "Also, didn't you say that you were going to Qingsang's house to ask about the situation? Then go. I'll only give you half a day to investigate the matter clearly. If you don't give me a definite answer tonight, then don't blame me for personally going to my daughter's house tomorrow and driving that woman away. "
Su Chenghui stood there. When Li Qianxue walked out and wanted to follow, Li Qianxue slammed the door shut. He almost hit his nose. He stopped in his tracks and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
It was still Li Qianxue's usual personality and style. This kind of her really made him a little nostalgic.
..
When Su Qingsang saw Su Chenghui, there was a flash of surprise in her eyes.
"Dad?"
Why was he here?
"I came to see you." Su Chenghui was a little uncomfortable. He handed a few bags in his hand to Su Qingsang. "These are for your body. I've asked the doctor and the nutritionist. You can eat them. "
Su Qingsang looked at the bird's nest and the nutrition products in his hand and reached out to take them.
"Dad, come in."
Su Chenghui entered the door and saw Xiang Caiping sitting in the living room. He knew that Xiang Caiping was here, but when he really faced her, he still felt a little awkward.
Xiang Caiping's face was a little cold when she saw him. She stood up and said, "I'll go help in the kitchen."
Su Chenghui didn't mind. At Su Qingsang's invitation, he sat down on the sofa.
"Is the child okay? How are you? "
"I'm fine." Su Qingsang's lower abdomen was already slightly bulging. Sitting like this, it was obvious that she was pregnant.
Su Chenghui nodded and looked in the direction of the kitchen.
"Why is she here?"
"You mean Auntie Xiang?" Su Qingsang didn't expect Su Chenghui to come to see her, nor did she expect him to meet Xiang Caiping.
"Yes. She – "Su Chenghui didn't finish his sentence, but he believed that Su Qingsang understood what he was going to say.
"Last month, I had serious morning sickness. I vomited everything I ate. Huo Jinyao thought that I might like to eat the hometown dishes of Lin City, so he asked Auntie Xiang to come and cook for me. "
Su Qingsang briefly explained. Su Chenghui couldn't hide his concern. "How are you? Are you okay now? Do you still have morning sickness? "
"No." Su Qingsang shook her head. "It's strange. After Auntie Xiang came, I haven't vomited."
Su Chenghui was a little surprised. He had thought of many possibilities, but he didn't expect it to be this one.
"You, she, then you –" Su Chenghui was thinking about how to put it. "So she lives here now?"
"Yes." Su Qingsang nodded, but Su Chenghui didn't look too good because of her affirmative answer. "Does your mother know?"
In fact, Li Qianxue already knew, but Su Chenghui didn't believe that Su Qingsang would completely ignore Li Qianxue's opinion.
"I don't know." Su Qingsang shook her head and looked a little guilty. "I didn't tell my mother. I knew she would be unhappy."
"You knew she would be unhappy, but you –" Su Chenghui raised his voice and quickly lowered it.
"Qingsang, I think you're wrong about this matter."
Su Qingsang lowered her head and looked a little solemn. She didn't respond. Su Chenghui didn't believe that she didn't know. "Haven't you thought about your mother's feelings? Qingsang, you'll hurt your mother's heart. "
Su Qingsang knew what he was saying. Towards Li Qianxue, of course, she knew that she would be unhappy. She also knew that if Li Qianxue knew, she would definitely be angry.
But towards Xiang Caiping, she felt a little guilty and uneasy. She always felt that Xiang Caiping's current situation had something to do with her. Even if the person who caused her current situation wasn't her.
In fact, she really didn't have to be with Xiang Caiping, but she could feel that after Xiang Caiping came, she looked more normal and cheerful than before.
She was no longer trapped in the matter of Su Peizhen's imprisonment every day, and she no longer thought about the tragedy of her life.
Seeing that Xiang Caiping was obviously much more cheerful, Su Qingsang was actually very pleased. Xiang Caiping was still young. She wasn't even fifty years old. Her life shouldn't be depressed and decadent.
She should also have her own life.
During this period of time, Xiang Caiping was obviously much better. Every day, she thought about recipes and how to make new snacks, which made her look much more energetic than a month ago.
"I know." Su Qingsang's voice was low. "I haven't thought of a good way yet."
Su Chenghui's expression didn't look good. He saw his own shadow in Su Qingsang. "Are you two-timing?"
"Dad. What are you talking about? "
Su Chenghui thought of Li Qianxue's appearance today. At first, he only felt a little sorry for her, but now he felt very sorry for her. He also understood Su Qingsang, but understanding was one thing. He was on Li Qianxue's side, so he couldn't let Su Qingsang be like this.
"You hired another cook. I'll help you find someone who can cook Lin City's dishes. Ask your aunt to go back. "
"Dad?"
It wasn't that Su Qingsang hadn't thought of this before, but she knew that it wasn't a matter of hiring a chef.
"It's settled." At the end of the day, Su Chenghui didn't want Li Qianxue and Xiang Caiping to have a conflict. Both of them were people he had wronged.
Whether it was Xiang Caiping or Li Qianxue who suffered, he didn't want it to happen. He didn't want Li Qianxue to be sad because of Su Qingsang.
Su Qingsang was silent. Su Chenghui glanced in the direction of the kitchen and stood up.
"Qingsang. Sometimes, life is like a multiple-choice question. It's either B or A. I didn't understand it before. I always thought that I could have the best of both worlds, but now I know that it's impossible. "
After saying this, he turned around and left. Su Qingsang's lips moved. She wanted to ask him to stay for dinner, but considering his unfriendly relationship with Xiang Caiping, she didn't say anything in the end.
..
When Su Chenghui returned to the hotel, Li Qianxue had already returned after dinner. Her luggage had already been brought up by the chauffeur.
Inside were gifts she bought for Su Qingsang. She thought she could give them to Su Qingsang today. She didn't expect things to turn out like this.
After casually putting the things in the room, Li Qianxue asked downstairs to send a bottle of wine up. She drank two glasses, but still couldn't suppress the irritation.
When Su Chenghui entered the door, he saw Li Qianxue sitting on the sofa on the balcony drinking.
"Qianxue?"
Su Chenghui walked up to her and gently took the glass from her hand.
"Bring it here." Night fell. Su Chenghui hadn't eaten yet. Looking at Li Qianxue now, he wasn't hungry at all.
Putting the glass aside, Li Qianxue raised her head and glared at him. Her voice was very cold. "You took so long to come back. Is it a misunderstanding? "
Su Chenghui was still silent. He knew that it wasn't a misunderstanding.
Li Qianxue sneered and stood up. She looked at Su Chenghui with a cold gaze. She walked past him and was about to go in the direction of the room, but Su Chenghui blocked in front of her at the right time.
"Qianxue. It's not what you think. "
"Then what is it? Tell me, I'm listening. "
Su Chenghui didn't know what to say. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows and looked at Li Qianxue with worry and heartache.
"I asked Qingsang, and she said –"
Su Chenghui hesitantly repeated Su Qingsang's words. His voice was a little lacking in confidence. "She's in a special situation now. She didn't really betray you or anything. Just pretend that she just hired a nanny or a chef who knows how to cook Lin City's dishes – "
Under Li Qianxue's glare, he couldn't continue the rest of his words.
"Hired a nanny?" Li Qianxue sneered. "A chef?"
"Huo Jinyao's family is so poor that they can't afford a chef? Or is my daughter so poor that she can't afford a nanny? Does Xiang Caiping have to rush to take care of her? "
Su Chenghui was speechless. Li Qianxue took a step forward and stood in front of Su Chenghui.
"Qianxue."
Li Qianxue didn't accept this excuse. She sat back down and picked up the wine in front of her.
Su Chenghui sat down as well, blocking her from drinking.
"Qianxue, stop drinking. Although Qingsang didn't say it in detail, I think it must have been very hard for her when she was pregnant. You, understand her. "
Li Qianxue waved his hand away, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and sneered.
"I understand. I completely understand. "
She suddenly put the glass down heavily with a bang. The coffee table trembled a little because of her action. She stood up and looked at Su Chenghui.
"I'm not a good mother, am I?"
"Qianxue?"
"I'm not a good mother." Li Qianxue emphasized this sentence. "I know, I know all about it."
Her face was red from drinking. She looked at the sky outside and thought about everything that had happened in the past year. She thought about everything that had happened in the past twenty years.
"I've made many mistakes. I didn't recognize my daughter at the first moment. I didn't accompany her and protect her at the first moment. "
"I even allowed others to bully her openly and secretly."
Before that, Su Qingsang wasn't her daughter. Why should she care about the other party's thoughts and situation?
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui rarely saw Li Qianxue lose control like this. Every time he saw her, his heart ached.
"Since we met, I haven't done anything for her. She doesn't need money. Huo Jinyao has enough status to give her. What I give her is what she doesn't need. I can't give her what she needs. So I'm a failed mother. "
"Qianxue, don't say that." Su Chenghui stood up as well. He wanted to get close to Li Qianxue and give her some comfort, but Li Qianxue didn't need such comfort.
She took a big step back, her eyes a little dazed.
"I'm indeed a failure. I couldn't know about Qingsang's morning sickness at the first moment. In fact, she didn't look well during that time, but every time she told me that she was fine, I believed that she was fine. "
"I can't be like Xiang Caiping, who knows how to cook delicious food to make her happy. I don't even know how to relieve the morning sickness, because no one came to tell me back then. "
When she was pregnant with Su Qingsang, she had serious morning sickness. She wanted this child. She wanted it like crazy, so she worked hard to overcome it. Although the process was difficult, she got through it.
When she was pregnant with Su Yuxin, the morning sickness became even more serious, but at that time, did anyone care about her?
She couldn't show it in front of her father, and she couldn't let him worry. She couldn't show it in front of Su Chenghui, because Su Chenghui disdained it.
She even visited the doctor in secret, because the child was also born without blessing.
Could she be blamed? She really didn't know how to take care of people. Her food and daily life had been taken care of since she was a child. She was the daughter of the Li family, and she couldn't be like Xiang Caiping. That wasn't her.
Su Chenghui stood there, and he felt as if he had been slapped in the face.
"I'm not a good mother, so what? She's going to find someone else to be her mother now, right? "
"Qianxue, don't be like this. Qingsang isn't that kind of person."
"She isn't, I am."
Li Qianxue looked at Su Chenghui. She had drunk some wine, but it wasn't enough to make her drunk. However, she was depressed, and she needed an outlet.
"It's because I'm too strong, because I always give people the feeling that I'm very strong. So she doesn't need to take care of my emotions. She thinks that I don't care. She thinks that I can get through anything. "
"Qianxue –" It wasn't like that. Su Chenghui wanted to say it, but Li Qianxue didn't give him a chance.
"Shut up." Li Qianxue glared at Su Chenghui. Her eyes were full of hatred. "You're the same. You all think that I'm strong. You all think that I won't get hurt. You all think that I won't feel pain. That's why you hurt me unscrupulously. You two are indeed father and daughter. Even your way of thinking is the same. "
"I didn't." Su Chenghui walked up to Li Qianxue. He really couldn't bear to see Li Qianxue like this. "Qianxue, I didn't. Qingsang didn't either. "
"She didn't? If she didn't, why would she let Xiang Caiping live in her and Huo Jinyao's house? "Li Qianxue looked at Su Chenghui." Didn't you? But all this pain was brought to me by you. Su Chenghui, it's all because of you. It's all because of you. "
Su Chenghui reached out to hug her, wanting to give her some comfort. But Li Qianxue didn't need it. She struggled, but Su Chenghui held her waist tightly and pulled her into his arms.
"Qianxue, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. "
Li Qianxue couldn't break free. She opened her mouth and bit Su Chenghui's shoulder.
Su Chenghui was in pain. He was only wearing a shirt. The thin fabric made Li Qianxue taste blood before long, but she refused to let go.
Su Chenghui could feel Li Qianxue's anger. His shoulder was already bleeding, but he didn't push her away.
Li Qianxue bit her gums until they were numb and painful. Finally, she let go.
Su Chenghui's shirt was already stained with blood. He didn't even wipe it. He gently patted Li Qianxue's back.
"Qianxue, it's all in the past. It's all in the past. It's okay. Don't think about it anymore."
"I can't. Let me tell you, that's all in the past. " Li Qianxue pushed him away. Her eyes were cold. "Su Chenghui, don't say the word 'sorry' in front of me again. You don't need to say anything. Everything is in the past. To me, it's never in the past. "
She stood up straight and took a step back.
"Su Chenghui, do you know? Every time I think about these things, I swear to myself that in this life, I will never, never forgive you."
After saying this, Li Qianxue went back to her room to rest.
Su Chenghui was left standing there, his face ashen.
… …
When Xiang Caiping opened the door, she thought that Su Qingsang had forgotten to bring the key. When she opened the door, she saw Li Qianxue standing outside. She was stunned. Her palm on the door handle suddenly tightened.
"…"
Her lips moved, but before she could react, Li Qianxue had already walked past her and entered the door.
Li Qianxue entered the door and looked around.
Huo Jinyao's house was very big. The two houses added up to a few hundred square meters. Now, this house had a different aura.
There was a cup of tea on the coffee table, and a few molds on the dining table. Xiang Caiping bought the materials yesterday and started making mooncakes today.
