Wei Ting seemed much more energetic today than yesterday. He didnât know what Old Master Li had told him yesterday. When he looked at Su Chenghui again, his eyes were full of smugness.
âExcuse me.â
He was holding a big bouquet of roses in one hand and a big bag in the other. Su Chenghui recognized the logo on the bag.
It was a very famous hotel in Lin City. There was breakfast in it.
He stood there and didnât intend to give in to Wei Ting.
âPresident Wei, Qianxue just woke up. Itâs not convenient.â
âWhatâs not convenient?â Wei Ting wasnât polite. âQianxue just woke up, so she should be hungry. Canât you see I brought her breakfast?â
He shook the box in his hand and moved closer to Su Chenghui. âBut donât worry, itâs not for you.â
He said this very softly. Seeing the slight change in Su Chenghuiâs expression, he directly squeezed past him and went into the ward.
It was not that Su Chenghui couldnât stop him, but Li Qianxue had already heard the sound of him entering the ward.
âQianxue, how are you?â When Wei Ting saw that Li Qianxue had already woken up, the smile on his face became even brighter.
âWei Ting?â When Li Qianxue saw him, her expression was a little ambiguous.
She thought that when Old Master Li brought Wei Ting home yesterday, it was to convince him. What on earth was father doing?
âI brought you breakfast.â Wei Ting looked at Li Qianxue and smiled gently. âTry it. I specially queued to buy it. Theyâre very exquisite breakfast pastries.â
Li Qianxue did not answer, but Wei Ting was quick. He first put the flowers aside. Then, he took the breakfast out.
There was a small table on the bed, and the breakfast was placed on the table. The portion wasnât much, but each pastry looked delicious.
âHere, have a taste. Itâs still warm. I specially asked the waiter to bring two layers of insulated box.â
Li Qianxue, not knowing what expression to put on for a moment, looked at the chopsticks in his hand. Su Chenghui stood not far behind Wei Ting and stared at him coldly.
When Wei Ting handed the chopsticks to Li Qianxue, his eyes flashed. He took a few steps forward and took the chopsticks in his hand.
âYou ââ
Wei Ting turned to look at him. Su Chenghuiâs expression did not change, he looked at Li Qianxue gently. âQianxue, Yuxin will be here soon to deliver breakfast. Mother Zhangâs dishes are hygienic and nutritious. As for these, we donât know where they were packed. You Donât have to eat them.â
âSu Chenghui, what do you mean?â
Wei Ting was still young after all. Because of Su Chenghuiâs actions, he could not keep his cool. âCanât you see clearly? Look a little more clearly. These are the breakfast pastries that Jin Meixuan came out with.â
âReally?â Su Chenghui looked at his exasperated face, and his expression became more confident than before. âThen I should try it, right?â
âPresident Wei.â Su Chenghui raised his eyebrows and looked at him. âYou donât mind, right?â
âOf course I do ââ mind. Wei Tingâs last two words were interrupted by Su Chenghui. âOf course you donât mind. I know. Then Iâll thank you for breakfast in advance.â
âQianxue.â Su Chenghui looked at Li Qianxue. âThis breakfast is actually a little greasy. Donât eat it.â
Greasy? Wei Ting was furious. How was it greasy? How was it greasy?
He was still talking, but Su Chenghui had already eaten. He was so fast that he didnât have time to stop him.
Li Qianxue sat there and watched the two menâs childish behavior. She didnât want to talk anymore.
âPresident Su?â Wei Ting gritted his teeth. He really felt that the back of his teeth hurt. âYou donât have to eat so fast, do you?â
âOf course I have to eat faster.â Even if Su Chenghuiâs eating actions were fast, it couldnât hide his current elegance. After so many years in the business world, his steadiness had surpassed Wei Tingâs.
âAfter all, Yuxin will send breakfast over later. I still have to help Qianxue eat.â
âItâs okay. I will be happy to take care of Qianxue.â
âItâs useless for you to be happy, because Qianxue wonât be happy.â Su Chenghui slowly picked up a dumpling and put it into his mouth.
Wei Ting glared at him. When he turned to look at Li Qianxue, he couldnât help but look a little aggrieved.
âQianxue, you wonât mind, right?â
Li Qianxue frowned. Let Wei Ting take care of her?
âWei Ting, it doesnât seem like the weekend today, does it?â
Was this an order to leave? Wei Tingâs expression became more and more depressed. âIâm fine. Qianxue, itâs fine if I donât go to work. I like to accompany you.â
âI donât need your company.â Li Qianxue rejected him curtly. âYou should go to work.â
âIf you donât want me to accompany you, but you want him to accompany you?â Wei Ting pointed at Su Chenghui. The expression on his face was not only aggrieved, but also that of shock and disbelief.
âWei Ting.â Unfortunately, Li Qianxue did not like his tone. âThis doesnât seem to have anything to do with you, does it?â
âOf course it has something to do with me.â Wei Ting looked at the person who had eaten more than half of the pastries, and felt depressed. âHow can he be worthy of you? Look at him, look at him ââ
âPresident Wei.â Su Chenghui put down the chopsticks in his hand and slowly took out a tissue to wipe the corner of his mouth.
âWhether Iâm worthy or not, it doesnât seem to be up to you.â He looked at Li Qianxue with a burning gaze. âItâs up to Qianxue.â
Su Chenghui could not be blamed for being so sure. He had been married to Li Qianxue for many years. Even if they got divorced, even if they broke up. With Li Qianxueâs personality, she would not do anything that would tarnish his reputation.
Li Qianxue would definitely not say anything that would belittle him like this.
âQianxue.â Wei Ting looked at Li Qianxue and waited for her to stand up for him. âYou canât really think that way, right?â
How could a person like Su Chenghui be worthy of Li Qianxue? What kind of joke was this?
âWei Ting.â Li Qianxue was having a headache. She was not in the mood to continue arguing with Wei Ting. âYou should go to work. We really donât need you here.â
âQianxue?â Wei Tingâs eyes widened. He could not believe that Li Qianxue would rather choose Su Chenghui than him.
âMom.â He was still in disbelief when Su Yuxin arrived.
He saw Wei Ting the moment he entered the room. Naturally, he knew this man. He was a tech upstart from Lin City. He was pursuing his mother.
Su Yuxinâs feelings were a little complicated. On one hand, he was naturally happy that Li Qianxue had such charisma at her age.
On the other hand, he felt a little uncomfortable. His mother was being pursued by a man so much younger than her?
Regardless of whether it would work out, he only hoped that Li Qianxue would not get hurt.
âI brought you some soup.â In fact, the hospital had nutritious meals, but Su Chenghui insisted that the nutritious meals in the hospital were not delicious.
Even Old Master Li thought the same. It was really because the Li Corporation had shares in this hospital. How could ordinary patients have such treatment?
Su Yuxin walked forward and saw the breakfast that looked like it had already been eaten placed on the bed table.
âMom, this is ââ
âItâs nothing.â Su Chenghui would not let Wei Ting make a good impression in front of his son. âPresident Wei is my friend. He saw how hard I took care of your mother, so he brought me breakfast.â
Wei Ting stared at Su Chenghui and felt like he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
What did Su Chenghui mean? Who brought him here?
âThank you, Mr. Wei.â Su Yuxin put down the lunch box politely. âSorry to trouble you, Mr. Wei. Is there anything else?â
Wei Tingâs face turned livid. He didnât expect Li Qianxue and Su Yuxin to chase him away in such a short period of time?
This feeling was really new. It was very fresh.
He couldnât help but look at Li Qianxue again. âQianxue ââ
Did you see that? Your ex-husband bullied me, and your son bullied me? Everyone bullied me.
âWei Ting, you should go back first. Yuxin and the nurses are here. Iâm fine.â
âQianxue, I just ââI want to take care of you.
âI really donât need you to take care of me. The nurses and Yuxin are all here.â
Wei Ting couldnât win. In the end, no matter how reluctant he was, he still walked out of the ward.
After he left, Su Chenghui was happy, and Li Qianxue was more or less at ease. Between Su Chenghui and Wei Ting, she chose Su Chenghui. It didnât mean that she forgave Su Chenghui.
But under such circumstances, she was more willing to keep someone she felt she could control and not make her feel so uncomfortable.
Just like yesterday, Su Yuxin prepared soup for Li Qianxue and was about to feed her. Su Chenghui took the bowl away again.
âIâll do it. You can go ask the nurse to take away the food on this table.â
How could Su Yuxin not know what Su Chenghui wanted to do? He glanced at him and went to clean it up himself.
Now, he could only hope that Su Chenghui would quickly take care of Li Qianxue on account of how tactful and quick he was.
Li Qianxue had nothing to say to Su Chenghui. Although she cooperated with Su Chenghui by opening her mouth, she kept silent and didnât speak.
Su Chenghui liked to take care of Li Qianxue. Even the smallest things would make him feel happy and satisfied.
It didnât matter whether Li Qianxue accepted him or not, but he had to do these things. He had to let Li Qianxue feel his love for her.
After breakfast, Su Yuxin went straight to the Li Corporation.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Li Corporation didnât have so many things for him to do. Everything was arranged by Li Qianxue previously. However, Su Yuxin obviously didnât want to be a third wheel between his parents, so he could only leave.
After his son left, Su Chenghui felt even more at ease. âQianxue, do you want to eat some fruit?â
âQianxue, is it comfortable to sleep like this? Do you want me to adjust your pillow a little higher?â
âQianxue, do you want to watch TV? Iâll turn on the TV for you to watch?â
âQianxue, the latest issue of second financial magazine has arrived. Do you want me to read it to you?â
âQianxue?â
Him repeatedly calling her name gave Li Qianxue a headache. She looked at Su Chenghui without much joy or emotion.
âYouâre very noisy. I just want to have a quiet rest.â
â...âSu Chenghui looked at Li Qianxueâs cold face and couldnât say anything else.
âQianxue, then you can rest.â
Li Qianxueâs world was finally quiet, but this was not enough. Because Su Chenghui, staring at her with a burning gaze, was sitting on the edge of the bed.
That feeling was like a ray of light on her back. Even if she closed her eyes, she still couldnât avoid it.
She gritted her teeth and couldnât bear it anymore. She opened her eyes and glared at Su Chenghui. âSu Chenghui, are you done? Can you stop staring at me?â
Su Chenghui had no idea what he had done to provoke her and make her react so strongly.
âQianxue?â
âDonât you have anything to do? If you have nothing to do, Iâll have to trouble you to go out. I donât want to see you.â
âQianxue, I just ââ
âI know. I just want to be alone, alright?â Li Qianxueâs tone was a little cold. âBut Iâm sorry, I donât need anyone to accompany me now.â
âQianxue?â
âAre you going or not? If youâre not going, Iâm going.â It was just a transfer. She had the ability to do that.
Su Chenghui didnât say anything else. He was also worried about her leaving just like that. After thinking for a while, he stood up. âSince you want to rest, you can rest. Iâll go get you a pot of water.â
Li Qianxue turned her face to the side. What did he mean by getting water? He was just looking for an excuse to stay.
She didnât chase him away for two days. Perhaps it gave him some delusional hope.
Li Qianxue didnât like this delusional hope. Seeing Su Chenghui go out with a hot water bottle and knowing that he would come back later, she was a little annoyed.
However, no matter how hard Su Chenghui tried, it was useless. As long as she was determined, Su Chenghui wouldnât be able to shake her.
In the following time, Li Qianxue did her best to ignore Su Chenghui.
She tried his best to keep a distance from him.
She did not say anything more to provoke Su Chenghui. When a person reached a certain stage, these words were no longer useful.
Yesterday, she said something unpleasant, but Su Chenghui did not think of leaving. It was obvious that either he was thick-skinned, or he really wanted to be with her.
No matter what it was, Li Qianxue hated and disliked it.
There was a voice in the depths of her heart telling her that the feeling was not pure hate or dislike. It was that she was afraid that things would become like before, but this voice was suppressed by her.
She also thought about how she lost control when Su Chenghui wiped her body last night. She also thought about how she felt the throbbing in the depths of her heart ever since Su Chenghui hugged her.
Li Qianxue did not like these abnormal reactions. She was a very calm person. Perhaps, she could do something before Su Chenghui took a step forward.
She should think of an opportunity to completely drive Su Chenghui out of her life. As for those little things that went out of control, she would completely ignore them.
Thatâs right, it was just a momentary loss of control.
The door of the ward opened and closed, but after a while, it opened again. She thought that Su Chenghui had just come back and was thinking of how to properly explain it to him.
However, she saw that the person who came in was not Su Chenghui at all, but Luo Cheng.
âPresident Luo?â
Seeing Luo Cheng, Li Qianxue felt her drowsiness disappear. She didnât quite understand why Luo Cheng was here.
âQianxue, I heard that you had a car accident? Iâm really sorry. I just received the news last night, so I only had time to visit you today.â
Luo Cheng smiled very amiably. He was also carrying a large pile of nutrition products.
âYou are too kind, President Luo.â Li Qianxue looked at the ward and realized that only she and Luo Cheng were left in the ward.
