Li Qianxue stood at the entrance of the hospital and stared at Su Chenghui. He did not leave, nor did he speak.
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui looked at her worriedly. "Are you okay? Does it hurt again? Should we go in and see a doctor again? "
The worry on his face was so obvious. Li Qianxue lowered her head and remained silent.
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui was even more worried. He rarely saw Li Qianxue like this. "What's wrong with you? Can you tell me? "
Li Qianxue pursed her lips tightly. She looked down at her toes and then suddenly raised her head to look at Su Chenghui.
"Su Chenghui, can you …" Stay away from me? The last five words became, "Tell me, what do you want?"
Su Chenghui was stunned for a moment. Meeting Li Qianxue's unreadable expression, he took a step forward.
"I want to make it up to you. I want a chance to be by your side."
He didn't even dare to say something like starting over, nor could he say it out loud. He knew that he would be rejected by Li Qianxue.
Li Qianxue naturally understood. At the moment, Su Chenghui's expectations were really low.
She turned to look at the entrance of the hospital. At that moment, an ambulance had just entered the hospital. She looked at the ambulance that was approaching and moved a few steps to the side.
The ambulance stopped, and a man covered in blood got out. The paramedics rushed out and carried the person on the stretcher to the stretcher. Then, they quickly rushed inside to rescue him.
The hospital was a place where people were born, aged, sick, and died every day. Looking at the people coming and going, Li Qianxue seemed to have figured something out. He also understood some things.
She took a few more steps outside. Su Chenghui didn't know what she wanted to do, so he kept following her. Looking at her figure, he wanted to say something several times, but he was afraid that he would upset Li Qianxue.
"Su Chenghui." Walking out of the hospital, Li Qianxue, who was standing beside Su Chenghui's car, suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She didn't look at him but continued to stare at the heavy traffic on the road. "You said you wanted to make it up to me. You said you want a chance to stay by my side? "
"Yes."
"But let me tell you, if I don't need you to make it up to me, I don't want to see you by my side. What do you want? "
"…" Silence. Su Chenghui, who had already known this result, was not surprised at all. If Li Qianxue could forgive him so easily, then she wouldn't be called Li Qianxue.
"Or rather, what if I choose to be with another man? What do you want? "
Su Chenghui's pupils suddenly contracted. He looked at Li Qianxue's back and felt bitter in his mouth. "I …"
"I'm not young anymore." Li Qianxue knew very well that no matter how well she took care of herself. Now that she was a grandmother, she also had an old heart.
"I don't have the energy either."
She turned around and looked at Su Chenghui. There was some uncertainty in her eyes, but only for a moment. Soon, her expression became extremely determined.
"Su Chenghui. You know what? You have consumed all my passion. The power of all my lovers. I don't know how to love anymore. "
Su Chenghui's throat seemed to be choked. Of course, he knew everything that Li Qianxue said.
"I don't think so …"
"Don't say sorry." Li Qianxue didn't want to hear those words right now. She raised her hand, tilted her head, and stared fixedly at Su Chenghui's face.
"I don't need your apology. It's useless to apologize."
Li Qianxue frowned slightly. This was her expression when she was thinking. She didn't speak, and Su Chenghui didn't know what to say.
Other than apologizing and making up for it, he really didn't seem to be able to do anything.
"Qianxue?"
"Do you love me?"
The extremely sudden question made Su Chenghui think that there was something wrong with his ears. "I, I love you."
Li Qianxue wasn't surprised. More than a year had passed. She had heard Su Chenghui's confession more than once. Even if sometimes he didn't directly say the words' I love you '.
"But I don't really believe it."
"Qianxue, I really –"
She interrupted his eager confession. Li Qianxue had always been a straightforward person. Once she made a decision, she wouldn't regret it, let alone look back.
"Su Chenghui, if, I mean if, I never love you in the future, would you mind?"
"I …" Su Chenghui didn't understand what Li Qianxue meant.
"You said that you want to make it up to me. You said that you love me. You said that you just want a chance to be with me. Then let me ask you, Su Chenghui. If I never love you in this life, no matter what you do, I will only hate you. Wouldn't you mind? Do you still want to be with me? "
More than twenty years of hurt, in exchange for the pain of not being able to recognize her daughter, Li Qianxue admitted that she couldn't easily turn the page.
"Yes." This time, Su Chenghui's voice was much firmer. "No matter what, I will always be with you."
Li Qianxue fell silent again. She lowered her head and happened to see the shadow created by the sunlight on her body.
Her actions today were obviously not right. Su Chenghui had no idea what she meant and stood there uneasily.
"Okay."
After a long time, he heard Li Qianxue say the word "okay."
"Okay?" What was okay?
Li Qianxue looked up at him as if she had made up her mind.
"I agree to give you a chance."
"Qianxue?" This time, Su Chenghui really thought that he was hallucinating. How was that possible?
After Li Qianxue said the first word, the rest was much easier.
"I agree with what you said just now. If you want a chance, I'll give it to you. But, it's only for one year. "
"What?" There were too many surprises today, and Su Chenghui didn't have time to digest them. He only felt that it was surreal.
"I said I'll give you one year. If you can change my mind and believe your sincerity in this year, I'll agree to be with you."
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui was completely stunned by the sudden huge surprise. "You, is what you said true?"
"You only have one year." After these past few days, Li Qianxue had actually confirmed some things.
She could never be indifferent to Su Chenghui. She would always have a different feeling for him.
After all, she had loved him for so many years, and it had already gone deep into her bones. It really wasn't something that could be erased in a day or two.
But she couldn't forget the hurt he had brought to her, and she couldn't forget what he had done.
She was conflicted. Now, she wanted to give him a chance, and also give herself a chance.
Feelings could be cultivated again, but the hurt would always be there. She gave herself one year. If a year later, she could really slowly let go of the hurt and forget. Then she wouldn't mind being with Su Chenghui again.
But if a year later, the feeling he gave her was still the same as now, making her in a dilemma, then she could only decisively cut off all contact with Su Chenghui.
If she made up her mind, even Su Chenghui couldn't stop her.
Su Chenghui couldn't help but step forward and hug her. He avoided her injured hand and trapped her tightly in his arms.
"Qianxue. I believe me. I will work hard. I will definitely work hard. I promise I will persist. Not just this year, but for many years to come. "
He thought that he would never have a chance in this lifetime. He also thought that he might have to wait many years before Li Qianxue would let him go, but he didn't expect that day to come so soon.
"Qianxue. Thank you. Thank you so much. "
Even if she hadn't agreed yet, even if there was still one year, it was enough for Su Chenghui.
He would definitely work hard to make her accept him again.
"Don't thank me." Li Qianxue was still not used to him being so close to her. She pushed him away and took a step back.
"I haven't forgiven you, and I haven't accepted you. I'm just giving you time. One year. If you can't do it, then you have to promise that you'll never appear in front of me again. "
"Qianxue?"
"If you don't agree, then my proposal just now will be invalid. I will hire a professional manager and travel the world so that you won't be able to find me. Su Chenghui, don't doubt my ability. I can do it. "
As the president of the Li family, of course she could do it. Su Chenghui knew. However, he thought that she would at least care about Old Master Li and the two children.
"I have ties, but I also want to live for myself once." As if knowing what he was thinking, Li Qianxue didn't mind telling him her plan.
Su Chenghui understood what she meant. Li Qianxue was such a person.
"How about it? Do you agree? "Meeting her provocative gaze, he nodded heavily.
"I agree. One year. Just one year. If I can't make you change your mind in a year, I promise I won't pester you again. "
"Wrong. It's not that you won't pester me, but you'll never appear in front of me again. "
Su Chenghui looked at Li Qianxue's exquisite eyes and nodded heavily in agreement.
After he agreed, Li Qianxue felt her back suddenly relax. It was as if something had suddenly been let go.
One year, just one year. No matter what, let her enjoy Su Chenghui's efforts for the time being.
In the past few years, she had been the one who had been giving. She had been working hard for the relationship between the two of them.
Now that she was tired, the roles had been reversed. Let Su Chenghui worry about it.
..
After getting into the car, Su Chenghui still hadn't recovered from that mood. He was like a young boy, not knowing where to put his hands and feet.
"Qianxue, where are you going? Shall I send you? "
Li Qianxue turned her face to look at him, as if she was looking at a fool. "Go home. I'm injured. Where else can I go? "
"Yes, go home. Go home. " Su Chenghui nodded, but when he was about to start the car, he couldn't help but stop and look at her. "Um, why don't we go on a date?"
"Go to the movies? Or go shopping? "
He didn't know what to do with a woman, so he was very clumsy for a moment. He really hadn't dated a woman before.
He didn't know what a boyfriend and girlfriend usually did on a date.
"Su Chenghui, you seem to have forgotten something, right?"
