"You didn't eat anything at night before you left. You should eat something."
Li Qianxue stood there without moving and watched Su Chenghui put the bowl on the dining table. She smelled the faint aroma of food in the air.
Her lips pursed into a straight line. Su Chenghui knew how to cook?
Her hand was still hanging above her bag. The bag was already wet, and there were still water droplets on it. She retracted her fingertips and looked at Su Chenghui.
He had just taken a shower, and his hair was still a little damp.
He put the bowl in his hand on the dining table, turned around, and went to the kitchen again. Li Qianxue stood there and watched him bring out another bowl.
It was only then that she saw clearly that the bowl was filled with noodles.
"Come over and eat." Su Chenghui called her. Li Qianxue stood there without moving. She took out her phone again and planned to call Xiao Zhao.
"Do you want Xiao Zhao to buy you clothes? Even if he comes over, he won't be so fast, right? "
"Or are you afraid that I'll poison the noodles?"
Su Chenghui's self-deprecation didn't get Li Qianxue's praise. She stood there with a cold face and insisted on calling Xiao Zhao.
No one answered.
She didn't give up and called again, but still no one answered.
Li Qianxue wanted to curse. Every time at a critical moment, Xiao Zhao would drop the ball.
"Let's eat. Aren't you hungry?" Su Chenghui called her again. "If you don't come over and eat, the noodles will be cold."
Li Qianxue stood there without moving. Her lips were tightly pursed, forming a cold straight line.
Holding the phone, she called Xiao Zhao again. Before the phone was picked up, Su Chenghui had already walked in front of her, took the phone away, and put it aside.
"It's just a bowl of noodles. You don't have to be so nervous, do you?"
Before Li Qianxue could react, he had already led her to the dining table, pulled out a chair, and asked her to sit down.
In front of her was a bowl of steaming noodles. She smelled the aroma of the food as soon as she sat down. The noodles were beef noodles.
Thinly sliced marinated beef, with vegetables underneath and a layer of chopped green onions. It looked very delicious.
Li Qianxue sat still until Su Chenghui stuffed a pair of chopsticks into her hand.
"Don't worry, it's really not poisoned."
Li Qianxue held the chopsticks in her hand, and her body was a little stiff. Su Chenghui had already turned to the other side and sat down.
Seeing that she was still in a daze, he looked up and asked, "Are you really not hungry?"
Li Qianxue wanted to say that she wasn't hungry, but at that moment, her stomach let out a loud growl. She didn't look good.
She had a meeting at noon, so she didn't feel like eating after lunch. In the evening, she went to the banquet hall. Before she had time to eat, she ran into Su Chenghui and left early.
"Let's eat. It shouldn't taste bad."
Li Qianxue was quite picky about what she ate. Although the Li family usually focused on bland food, the more bland the food was, the more it showed the chef's skills.
Preserving the original flavor of food was much more difficult to make than heavy oil and spicy food. She didn't want to eat it at first, but in the current situation, it didn't seem to make a difference whether she ate it or not.
She went to Su Chenghui's house, took a shower, and then had dinner.
Li Qianxue didn't think too much about it. She picked up some noodles with her chopsticks and tasted it.
She was stunned for a moment after taking a bite. The taste was indeed good.
Cooking noodles seemed easy, but in fact, a little more or a little less heat would affect the taste of the noodles. She couldn't help but look up at Su Chenghui.
He focused on eating the noodles. Occasionally, he raised his head and suddenly smiled when his eyes met hers.
"Is it bad?"
Li Qianxue didn't say anything. She really couldn't say that such noodles tasted bad. After all, it wasn't bad.
The bowl was a big one, and she didn't have a big appetite. After eating half of it, she put down her chopsticks. In fact, she didn't eat much at night.
Su Chenghui had a good appetite. He finished all the noodles. He found that she still had half a bowl left. He didn't force her to eat. Instead, he took her bowl and started eating.
"You –" Li Qianxue's expression was a little bad. "I've eaten this before."
"I know."
"Why are you still eating if you know?" Li Qianxue looked at Su Chenghui and picked up the chopsticks. The pair of chopsticks was used by her.
"It's not good to waste food." Su Chenghui's words made Li Qianxue don't know what to say for a moment.
It's not good to waste food? The Li family was considered an aristocratic family. Although Old Master Li had always advocated saving, it was impossible for the kitchen to cook perfectly.
Why hadn't Su Chenghui been like this before?
Before she could say anything, Su Chenghui had already finished the rest of her noodles. Li Qianxue was very embarrassed.
He used the chopsticks she had used to eat the leftover noodles, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
She even had a feeling that he did it on purpose to make her feel uncomfortable.
Su Chenghui got up, put the bowl in the kitchen, and came out. There would naturally be hourly workers to clean up tomorrow. Now he wanted to spend time with Li Qianxue.
Li Qianxue went to the living room. She was about to call Xiao Zhao again. Su Chenghui came over and sat down next to her.
"Aren't you curious about how I know how to cook?"
Li Qianxue stopped making the phone call. "Why should I be curious?"
"But I want to tell you."
"But I don't want to know."
Li Qianxue lowered her head and was about to make another call. Su Chenghui took her phone away again and put it aside.
"You know what? Ever since I divorced you, I've learned a lot of things. "
"Really?" Li Qianxue wasn't in a hurry to snatch the phone back. "So, should you thank me for divorcing you?"
"I'm grateful to you, not because you divorced me." Su Chenghui looked at her focused gaze, and he could see her shadow in it. "It's because of your tolerance and patience for me all these years."
Putting aside the fact that he had replaced Su Qingsang and Su Peizhen, Su Chenghui also knew that he had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband to Li Qianxue all these years.
Only Li Qianxue, who looked smart and capable, was very stubborn when it came to relationships. She knew that he didn't love her, but she still plunged in and endured it for so many years.
For more than a year, he had worked hard and tried his best to get close to her, but it didn't change Li Qianxue's opinion of him.
It had already made him uncomfortable, painful, and conflicted.
But what about Li Qianxue?
There were some things that couldn't be thought about. Thinking about it made him feel heart-wrenching pain.
Su Chenghui held Li Qianxue's hand and looked at her with a gentle gaze that he had never seen before. "I didn't do a good job in the past, whether it's being a husband or a father, but I will work hard in the future. I will be a qualified husband and a qualified father. "
"Qianxue. I don't expect you to give me a chance anymore. It's your freedom to give me a chance or not. I just hope that I can always follow you, accompany you, and help you when you need it. Whether you believe it or not, this is what I hope for now. "
His grip was slightly tight, and there was a burning warmth in it. In the past, Li Qianxue only hoped that he would have her in his eyes, but she couldn't see her in his eyes.
At this moment, she found her in his eyes, and his eyes were filled with her shadow.
Li Qianxue felt an electric current pass from his hand to her hand, and then from her hand to her heart.
She could clearly hear her heartbeat quicken. She tried to look away, and then she tried to pull back her hand.
However, there was only Su Chenghui's serious face in front of her.
"I love you. I'm willing to use the rest of my life to fulfill my determination. I'll let you know that I'm serious. "
"Qianxue, please believe me. I really love you."
The living room was very quiet. Even at this age, Li Qianxue had pitifully little experience in love.
All her experience in love came from Su Chenghui.
Her silent reaction was not within Su Chenghui's expectations. He thought that she didn't believe him, and he didn't intend to say more. It was better to do more than to say more. He would definitely show it to him.
"Qianxue, just watch me in the future."
Li Qianxue hadn't recovered from that realization. Her phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Xiao Zhao.
Li Qianxue quickly retracted her hand and sat up straight. Her face was cold. "It's useless. I don't need your company, and I won't need your help."
"Qianxue?"
Li Qianxue didn't look at him and picked up the phone.
"Madam, where are you?" Xiao Zhao had just gone to the toilet. When he came back, he found that there were many missed calls on his hand. "It's still raining heavily. Are you still in the banquet hall? Do you want me to drive to the door to pick you up? "
"No need. I'm not in the hotel now. Come to Shengda Garden to pick me up. "
"Shengda Garden?" Xiao Zhao looked confused. "Why did you go to Shengda Garden?"
"Yes." Li Qianxue didn't want to explain further. "When you come over, bring me a set of clothes."
"Clothes? Are your clothes wet? "
"Yes." Li Qianxue looked at the time. "There should be a department store nearby that's not closed yet. Come pick me up after you buy some clothes. Drive the car directly to the underground parking lot of Building 8. "
"Okay, I got it."
Xiao Zhao hung up the phone. Li Qianxue found that Su Chenghui had gone to the kitchen at some point. When he came out again, he was holding a glass of juice in his hand.
"Cherry juice. You'll like it. "
Li Qianxue looked at the glass of juice and didn't reach out. She looked up at Su Chenghui with undisguised displeasure in her eyes. "Su Chenghui, don't do these things. It's useless."
"Qianxue?"
"Whether you learn to cook or learn anything, it has nothing to do with me." Li Qianxue's voice was cold. "I don't want to know, and I don't care. Of course, if you are willing to stay away from me in the future, I think I will be more grateful to you. "
"…"
"The only thing I need you to do is to stay away from me and don't appear in front of me again."
"Okay, I got it."
Su Chenghui nodded, but he still placed the glass of juice in her hand. "However, I can't stay away from you now. After all, you're at my house."
"You –"
"Drink it. I don't think you ate much for dinner. "
Su Chenghui pulled her hand and let her take the glass of juice. "I squeezed it just now and put it in the fridge. It's just right to drink now."
Li Qianxue held the glass of cold cherry juice and looked at Su Chenghui. In the end, she couldn't help but say, "It seems that after leaving the Li Corporation, you're getting worse and worse. Not only do you have time to cook, but you also have time to do these things."
"It's not too bad." Su Chenghui smiled. "Actually, I would have done it before the divorce. I just didn't spend time on it."
After all, the Li family wasn't a place where he needed to do anything.
"Good disguise."
He clearly knew how to do it, but he pretended not to. She had really been fooled by him for so many years.
"Qianxue –"
"If it weren't for the fact that you can't control the weather, I would have reason to suspect that even if it didn't rain today, you would have found a way to bring me here. Right? "
"Qianxue, I'm not that cunning."
"Yes, you're not that cunning. You just have a way to deceive me and take revenge on me."
"Qianxue."
"Alright. I don't want to talk to you. Now either you go away, or I go away. "
Su Chenghui looked at her side profile. In the end, he couldn't say that he didn't want to go away. In the end, he could only stand up and return to his room.
Not long after Su Chenghui returned to his room, Xiao Zhao came. He was carrying a few bags in his hand.
Other than high-end custom-made clothes, Li Qianxue also had a few brands that she liked. Xiao Zhao was her chauffeur. Every time she went shopping, he would help her carry the bags.
A few of the shop assistants at the counter knew him. Without needing him to say anything, they directly matched a set of clothes and sent it to Li Qianxue.
"Wait for me for a while. I'll change and go home."
Li Qianxue changed her clothes and came out. She found that Su Chenghui had also left the room.
Seeing her come out, Su Chenghui's face was a little disappointed. "You're leaving?"
Li Qianxue didn't even look at Su Chenghui. She just walked forward.
"Qianxue –"
When Li Qianxue heard this, she left without looking back. Su Chenghui stood there and watched her back disappear behind the door.
He turned around and saw the glass of juice on the coffee table. However, he didn't drink a single mouthful. It was still full.
Su Chenghui took a step forward and picked up the glass of cherry juice to take a sip. He had clearly tasted it before. It was sweet. Now that he drank it again, it felt extremely bitter.
..
When Li Qianxue entered the venue, she saw a few familiar faces. Today was the Top Ten Youth Award Ceremony in Lin City.
She was invited to be the presenter. With her status in Lin City, she was indeed very suitable.
The Li family never minded promoting new people. Huo Jinyao and Qiu Yanbo were among the Top Ten Youth last year.
She had glanced at this year's Top Ten Youth before. She found that other than Wang Tao and Wei Ting, she didn't know any of the rest.
It was normal for Wang Tao to be chosen first. As the president of Tianyu Group in Lin City, he represented the direction of Tianyu Group's decision-making. He was worthy of this award.
However, she didn't expect Wei Ting to win this award as well. It surprised her a little.
After entering the door, her seat was at the front. Coincidentally, she saw a few familiar faces. Li Junsheng, Chief Zhou, Chief Chen, Chief Gao, and Secretary Li were all old acquaintances.
After greeting the leaders, she sat down on the seat with her nameplate. As she sat down, she also saw that the seat next to hers was Su Chenghui's.
Li Qianxue's face darkened when she saw those three words. It was true that he was everywhere.
