Li Qianxue squeezed the phone in her palm and felt the faint sweat seeping out.
He looked in the direction of the kitchen and forced himself to be patient. She would not lose. Whether it was before or now.
Su Qingsang would definitely choose her, that was why she thought so. Li Qianxue thought so in her heart, but at that moment, she heard the sound of knocking on the door.
Her heart skipped a beat. Was Su Qingsang back?
She sat there for a long time without opening the door. Someone knocked on the door a few more times. Li Qianxue closed her eyes, and Xiang Caiping walked out of the kitchen.
She looked at her, she also looked at her.
Li Qianxue, who hid her emotions well, saw a hint of nervousness in Xiang Caiping's eyes. Suddenly, she smiled and got up to open the door.
In fact, Li Qianxue's heart was beating very fast. If the person who came was really Su Qingsang, she was not sure if she would really be on her side.
The door opened. The man standing outside was Su Chenghui. Seeing that it was him, Li Qianxue was stunned for a moment, and at the same time, she felt inexplicably relieved.
"Why are you here?"
Su Chenghui didn't say anything. He looked past her and at Xiang Caiping, who was standing behind him.
She wore an apron and stood there with a complicated expression on her face.
Su Chenghui looked at Li Qianxue and then at Xiang Caiping. Even if the two of them did not speak, he could smell the thick smell of gunpowder in the air.
He took a step forward and stood in front of Li Qianxue. Su Chenghui lowered his voice and begged for balance.
"Qianxue, come back with me."
"Ha." Li Qianxue suddenly laughed. "This is my daughter's home. You want me to go back with you? Back to where? "
"You'll make things difficult for Qingsang."
"She should have known that she would make things difficult for me when she brought Xiang Caiping to this house."
Li Qianxue's expression was a little cold. "She knew it would make things difficult for me, but she still did it. Now that she's in a difficult position, it's her own business. "
Su Chenghui was speechless. His expression was a little conflicted. "Qianxue, don't be like this."
"Don't want what?" Li Qianxue found it ironic. She smiled playfully and said, "Su Chenghui, so many years have passed. You haven't changed at all. You used to want me to back down, and you still do. I'm telling you, I'm not returning it today. "
Su Chenghui didn't look too good. He was worried about Su Qingsang, not Xiang Caiping.
"I just don't want to put my daughter in a difficult position."
Li Qianxue smiled, and the sarcasm in her eyes deepened. "Do you not want to put your daughter in a difficult position, or do you want to protect your old lover?"
"Qianxue. You know very well — "
"I don't know." Li Qianxue narrowed her eyes and her expression was very cold. "You and Qingsang are really father and daughter. Even the things they do are the same, and the way they think is the same. "
"Qianxue?"
"Say no more." Li Qianxue listened impatiently. "I won't back down. Let me tell you, I, Li Qianxue, will never back down. "
"Qianxue, why are you doing this?"
"Why bother? If you like your old flame and want to be with her, that's your business. But Qingsang is my daughter. I had been wronged for so many years, and I owed her for so many years. She values relationships and can't let go of some of the past. I don't mind, and I'm willing to give her time, but I won't give her chances again and again like I did to you back then. I won't let her hurt my feelings unscrupulously. "
Li Qianxue's words made Su Chenghui silent. He stood there and didn't move for a long time.
"Two days."
Xiang Caiping's voice suddenly sounded behind them. The two of them turned to look at her. Xiang Caiping stood there, looking conflicted.
"Li Qianxue, give me two days. I will leave on my own. You don't need to chase me away, nor do you need Qingsang to chase me away."
Su Chenghui looked at her without saying anything. Li Qianxue crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at her with slightly narrowed eyes, her eyes full of suspicion.
"I'm telling the truth. I will leave on my own in two days. "
Xiang Caiping seemed to know that Li Qianxue wouldn't believe her. "The Mid-Autumn Festival is in three days. I promised Qingsang to make mooncakes for her. I don't want to go back on my word. Li Qianxue, I'm not afraid of losing, nor am I so unconfident that Qingsang will definitely choose you. I understand how you feel. If we were in each other's shoes, I wouldn't want Su Peizhen to choose you. "
"I only need two days. Two days is enough for me to finish what I promised Qingsang. I will leave on my own then. And I can also promise. I will never see Qingsang again. "
At least she wouldn't take the initiative to look for Su Qingsang. If Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao wanted to look for her, she would also avoid them and not see them.
Li Qianxue stood at the door and looked at Xiang Caiping, not in a hurry to speak.
"You don't believe me?" Xiang Caiping's voice was a little anxious. "I promised you that I would leave, so naturally I won't stay. Just like I wouldn't fight with you for Su Chenghui in the past, I won't fight with you for Qingsang now."
No matter what, Su Qingsang would always be Li Qianxue's daughter. She knew this very well.
"That's because you can't fight with me."
Li Qianxue's words made Xiang Caiping's face turn a little pale. After saying that, she felt that it was boring.
"Alright." Li Qianxue waved her hand. "Two days it is, but don't put on that face again. It's like I'm bullying you."
She didn't want to stay, so she turned around and left. Su Chenghui looked at Xiang Caiping with a somewhat complicated expression, then quickly followed behind Li Qianxue and left.
After entering the elevator, Li Qianxue stood opposite Su Chenghui.
"Your old lover is suffering right now. Why? Don't you need to comfort her? "
"I want to comfort you more."
"What do I have to comfort you about?" Li Qianxue raised her chin slightly, her face was full of pride and arrogance. "I won, didn't you hear? She knew that she would lose to me, so she voluntarily withdrew. "
"Qianxue." He knew, and she also knew, that some things weren't like that.
"Don't talk, I don't want to listen to you right now."
Li Qianxue rubbed her forehead and turned to look at the mirror wall in the elevator, ignoring Su Chenghui at all.
… …
As soon as Li Qianxue returned to the hotel, she went into her room and ignored everything Su Chenghui said.
Su Chenghui called twice, but didn't hear a reply, so he had to stop. He had to meet a client in the afternoon, and there were two contracts to discuss.
Su Chenghui, who had left the Li family, had to work harder than before if he wanted to succeed. As a man in his forties, he was under a lot of pressure to start all over again.
He didn't want to fail, nor was he willing to fail. Only if he succeeded again would he have more confidence to stand next to Li Qianxue.
Before leaving, he ordered a Chinese meal for Li Qianxue and left a note. He told her to look for him if there was anything, although Su Chenghui knew that the chances of this were very low.
What he didn't expect was that when he came back at night. Li Qianxue was actually drinking again.
There were a few empty bottles on the table in the living room. Li Qianxue was still sitting on the sofa outside. There were two bottles on the coffee table, one of which was already empty.
Li Qianxue picked up the other and poured it into a cup.
The smell of alcohol made Su Chenghui realize that Li Qianxue had probably drunk a lot. Without thinking, he stepped forward and reached out to snatch her cup away.
"Qianxue, stop drinking."
"Go away." Li Qianxue was in a bad mood today. She wanted to change places, but because she was in a bad mood, she continued to stay here.
She didn't change hotels, but it didn't mean that she needed to listen to Su Chenghui. It didn't mean that she forgave Su Chenghui.
Su Chenghui knew that Li Qianxue didn't care as much as she showed.
Whether it was him or Su Qingsang. Back then, he and Su Qingsang probably made Li Qianxue feel hurt.
Seeing that Li Qianxue didn't want a cup and was about to drink from the bottle, Su Chenghui snatched the bottle away.
"Give it back to me."
Li Qianxue was indeed very annoyed. Just a while ago, Su Qingsang had a video call with her. Seeing that she was staying in an environment that was not at home at all, she didn't doubt Su Qingsang's words that she was on a business trip and not in Lin City.
If Su Qingsang called back to the Li family in the next two days, she would know that she had come to Rong City.
Unfortunately, she came to see Su Qingsang, and Old Master Li went to see Su Yuxin. Therefore, there was indeed no one in the Li family now.
She was fine at first, but after chatting with Su Qingsang, Li Qianxue's mood began to sink.
Some things could be persuaded to let go of, and she could tell herself that it was okay. But that was just an excuse. In fact, she just couldn't let go of it. In fact, it was okay.
Why would Su Chenghui give her wine? He put down the bottle, held Li Qianxue's hand, and squatted down beside her.
"Don't drink anymore. It's not good for your health. "
"What does my health have to do with you?" Li Qianxue wanted to break free of his hand, but Su Chenghui didn't let go. Not only did he not let go, but he also hugged her.
"Qianxue, Qianxue, listen to me. Listen to me, if you really feel bad, you can cry it out. Or, you can hit me. "
In his memory, Li Qianxue had almost never cried, except for the time when she recognized Su Qingsang. For so many years, she had always been calm and collected.
Crying was almost impossible for Li Qianxue. In the past, Su Chenghui didn't feel it, but now he was full of heartache.
Li Qianxue looked at him expressionlessly. "Cry? Who do you think I am? "
She was Li Qianxue, the daughter of the Li family, and the current leader of the Li family. She wouldn't cry.
The more she said that, the more Su Chenghui's heart ached. Hugging her body tightly, he held her tightly in his arms.
"Qianxue. Don't be like this. "In the past, he did not understand. He just hated how aggressive she was and didn't like how domineering she was.
But later on, he understood that whether she was arrogant or flamboyant, it was just her performance. Her heart was like any other woman's.
Longing for love, needing love.
Li Qianxue struggled a few times, but to no avail. She was too lazy to struggle. She was a little dizzy after drinking, and her mind was a little messy.
She blinked and looked at Su Chenghui in front of her. She found him annoying no matter how she looked at him.
"Su Chenghui, are you laughing at me in your heart too?"
"I didn't." How could he laugh at her?
"I'm not gentle, and I can't do it. I can't do housework. I can't clean the house, either. I don't know how to cook, nor do I know how to make desserts and mooncakes to make people happy. "
"To put it bluntly, I'm actually a woman with nothing but my family background."
"She's different. She's gentler and more capable than I am. You're better at pleasing people than I am. You know how to take care of people and treat them better than I do. "
Her eyes were stained with tears. She wasn't really depressed. She could withstand the hurt from Su Chenghui in the past. Su Qingsang's actions now didn't hurt her, but she felt a little uncomfortable.
She could bear it, and she didn't care at all.
But now that she was drunk, those hidden emotions were completely revealed. When she saw Xiang Caiping, she couldn't help but think that she might indeed be inferior to Xiang Caiping in some ways.
That kind of emotion was enough to make her feel self-loathing and disgust.
"So no wonder all of you chose her. Compared to her, I really seem to be a failure."
"Qianxue, I didn't choose her." Su Chenghui knew that she wouldn't believe him, but he still had to say, "I chose you, do you remember?"
Li Qianxue ignored him. Su Chenghui didn't mind persuading her further.
"Not only me, but also Qingsang. She also chose you. Do you remember? She didn't have to tell us her background, but she chose to acknowledge you. "
"So you see, Qianxue, whether it's me or Qingsang, we both chose you."
Li Qianxue raised her head and stared at Su Chenghui with her eyes that were a little confused because she was drunk.
Su Chenghui's gaze didn't waver, and he looked at Li Qianxue with extreme focus.
However, Li Qianxue pushed him away and took a big step back. Even though she was drunk, the way she looked at Su Chenghui was still cold.
"Su Chenghui, you make it sound so nice. Unfortunately, I don't believe you. "
"Qianxue?"
"Don't call me." Li Qianxue waved his hand away, and her eyes were full of resistance. "Qingsang chose me because I'm her biological mother. She had no choice. And you – "
Li Qianxue's voice was full of malice as she pointed at Su Chenghui's chest. "You chose me because you don't have a better choice for the time being."
Shaking her head, she tried to sober herself up and tapped Su Chenghui's heart with her finger.
"That new company of yours didn't get the order last month, right? Did you only realize now that the Li Corporation's brand is more useful than you thought? "
"Qianxue." Su Chenghui's expression didn't look good. No matter how many difficulties he encountered in his work, it couldn't compare to Li Qianxue's words.
"Did I hit the nail on the head?"
Li Qianxue took a big step back. Her face, which was flushed because she was drunk, unexpectedly had a hint of mockery.
"Su Chenghui, do you think I'll believe you just because I'm drunk? Ridiculous. "
She threw this sentence down. Li Qianxue didn't look at Su Chenghui at all. She walked past him and was about to go back to her room to rest.
However, she had drunk too much after all. Her footsteps were a little unsteady. When she passed by the balcony door, she accidentally tripped. She was about to fall forward. Su Chenghui caught her in time.
After Li Qianxue steadied herself, she quickly waved his hand away and went into the room with a cold face.
Su Chenghui was left standing there looking at Li Qianxue's back. His heart was bitter, but it didn't change at all.
