Su Chenghui didn’t care about Li Qianxue’s cold expression, nor did he care about her rejection.
To him, these were all within his plan and expected treatment. He was also prepared to persevere for a long time. He really didn’t care about a little coldness.
“Good night, Qianxue. See you tomorrow.”
Who wanted to see him tomorrow? Who wanted him to say good night? Li Qianxue was very angry at him talking to himself. However, her daughter and son were both here, so she really didn’t want to embarra.s.s Su Chenghui in front of her children.
Su Chenghui left, and Su Qingsang looked at her with an ambiguous look.
At night, she pushed Li Qianxue back to her room. She and Xiao Tao helped Li Qianxue to the bathroom to wash up, then helped her back to the bed to lie down.
Xiao Tao left, but Su Qingsang didn’t go back to her room. Instead, she sat down by the bed.
“Mom, what are you and dad –”
“Your dad and I don’t have anything between each other.” Li Qianxue, completely ignoring the palpitations in her heart, spoke very quickly. She also completely ignored the unusual emotional fluctuations in her heart.
“…” Did she say anything? Su Qingsang looked at Li Qianxue’s guilty expression and said in amus.e.m.e.nt, “Mom, I haven’t had the chance to say anything yet.”
Li Qianxue’s expression was a little strange. “I’m sleepy. I need to rest.”
“Oh.” Su Qingsang touched her nose. “I still want to video chat with Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian for a while. Since you’re tired, I’ll go back to my room to video chat with them.”
“Hey.” Li Qianxue suddenly sat up. “You child. Even if I’m sleepy, I don’t lack this short amount of time.”
Su Qingsang smiled. She probably knew what Li Qianxue was thinking.
“Mom, I won’t advise you to get back together with Dad, but if you really don’t want to see him, ask Uncle Zhang to kick him out. Out of sight, out of mind.”
Seeing that Li Qianxue wasn’t looking, she added, “But if you want him to stay, then don’t kick him out. There are so many rooms in the house. It’s not bad for dad to stay in one, don’t you think?”
Li Qianxue’s expression was a little awkward. “Who wants to see him? I don’t want him to stay. If he comes back tomorrow, I’ll ask Uncle Zhang to kick him out.”
She sounded very firm, but her eyes were not as firm as her words.
Su Qingsang knew very well. She didn’t know what Su Chenghui had done in the past few days to soften Li Qianxue’s att.i.tude.
She didn’t know whether it was good or bad, but when she saw Li Qianxue’s angry face, she felt that the situation in front of her was not bad.
Although Li Qianxue was n.o.ble and elegant, after so many years of upbringing and her environment, it made her look like she was holding back no matter what.
It was not that this was not good, but the angry, annoyed, and uncomfortable Li Qianxue in front of her made her feel more real and lively.
From this point of view, Li Qianxue probably didn’t know how much influence Su Chenghui had on her.
She was really looking forward to whether Li Qianxue would really kick Su Chenghui out tomorrow.
..
Su Chenghui came early, but not empty-handed. He imitated Wei Ting, and brought a big bouquet of roses.
Old Master Li was usually the one who got up the earliest in the Li family. When he saw the flowers in Su Chenghui’s hand, his wrinkled old face changed a little, but only for a moment.
The second person to wake up was Su Yuxin. He wasn’t completely familiar with the company’s affairs, but this was still his responsibility. So, he woke up early every day and went to work on time.
He was surprised to see Su Chenghui holding a big bouquet of roses. He really couldn’t control the expression on his face.
Then, it was Su Qingsang. When she saw Su Chenghui like this, she was also a little incredulous.
She blinked her eyes and thought about Li Qianxue, who was still upstairs.
“Dad, mom seems to have just woken up. Why don’t you go upstairs to look for her?”
She really wasn’t helping Su Chenghui. It was just that if Li Qianxue was so cold-hearted that she chased Su Chenghui out of the Li family, then they, as her children, would feel a little awkward when they saw him.
It was right to let Su Chenghui go upstairs.
Su Chenghui looked at his daughter gratefully and carried the bouquet of roses upstairs.
Li Qianxue’s ankle was just sprained, so it was not too serious. If she could bear with it, she could stand up and walk a few steps.
She had just washed up. Although it was inconvenient for her to use one hand, she was not used to being waited on to do these relatively private things.
She stood in front of the closet and looked at herself. She picked a loose s.h.i.+rt and a skirt.
When she was about to change, she ran into some trouble. She only had one hand, so it was a little troublesome to put on clothes.
Just as she was thinking about how to put on clothes with one hand, the door behind her opened.
Li Qianxue, who had her back to the door, didn’t look carefully. The one who would come in was either Su Qingsang or Xiao Tao.
“Qingsang, come and help me put on my clothes.”
She had worn a very easy-to-take-off nightgown yesterday. At this moment, she was taking off her nightdress with one hand. Her hand, which had been cast, was carefully lifted up so that it was convenient to take it off.
This was what Su Chenghui saw when he entered the room.
He stood there, and the rose in his hand suddenly became a little p.r.i.c.kly.
“Qingsang?” Li Qianxue took off half of her dress. She was stuck with only one hand.
A hand behind her helped her gently pull up her nightdress and took it off.
“Thank you.” Li Qianxue, who thought it was Su Qingsang, didn’t think too much. She took the s.h.i.+rt and was about to continue.
She was shocked when she saw Su Chenghui behind her. She was originally standing against the closet. The injury on her foot hurt, and her body lost its balance just like that.
Su Chenghui quickly held her. He took advantage of the situation and pulled her into his arms.
Li Qianxue did not have the habit of sleeping in her underwear, so her upper body was naked. Now, one of her hands was in a cast, and the other was holding a s.h.i.+rt.
Su Chenghui held the woman in his arms and could not control his reaction.
“Qianxue –”
This sound was almost like a whisper. Li Qianxue wanted to stand firm and leave him, but she failed. She looked at Su Chenghui. Yesterday, she had said that she would chase him out, but now she couldn’t say it at all.
“Qianxue.” Su Chenghui squinted his eyes and called out again. He stared at her like a cheetah staring at its prey.
She subconsciously wanted to step back. The hand on her waist tightened, and tightly pressed against him, she was brought into his arms.
Without waiting for her to push him away, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.
First, he carefully probed her, then he went deep into her, and then he almost plundered her.
Li Qianxue lived for so long, but her experience in this area was really pitiful, and men would always have more experience in this area than women.
She could not stand steadily, and put all her strength on him. For a moment, she didn’t know whether it was because of the pain or because of his kiss that made her legs go soft.
She couldn’t help it.
These were the only words in Su Chenghui’s mind. His long and powerful fingers gently slid across her back.
The smooth touch made him unable to stop. He hugged her body tightly and the kiss became more and more pa.s.sionate.
When it was over, Li Qianxue’s breathing was rapid, and her entire body was weak. She could not stand steadily, and let Su Chenghui carry her. He carried her to the bed.
He took the clothes that she had just taken and carefully put them on for her. Throughout the whole process, Li Qianxue did not resist at all.
She was a little shocked by the kiss. The feeling of almost her soul being swallowed by the other party made her calm and self-control disappear without a trace. She completely forgot how to deal with it.
The b.u.t.tons were b.u.t.toned one by one. Su Chenghui used up all his self-control.
Until the last b.u.t.ton was b.u.t.toned, he was more or less relieved. He was not a beast, but the woman he loved was disheveled in front of him. Unless he was a saint, he could really hold it in.
Looking at the wheelchair at the side, he went forward and pushed the wheelchair over. He picked up Li Qianxue.
“Su Chenghui.” Li Qianxue was shocked by the sudden feeling of her body being suspended in the air. When he put her in the wheelchair, she realized that she seemed to be too nervous.
“Let’s go downstairs to eat. You haven’t had breakfast yet.”
Of course not. The moment Li Qianxue turned around, she saw the large bouquet of roses in the room. She was stunned.
The scene just now rushed into her mind. Li Qianxue’s face turned red, and she suddenly became angry from embarra.s.sment.
“Su Chenghui, who agreed to let you come up?”
“Get out.” Not only did Li Qianxue chase him out, she added, “If you don’t go out, I don’t mind letting Uncle Zhang come up and chase you away.”
Su Chenghui’s hand that was originally on the wheelchair stopped for a moment. He walked around to Li Qianxue and half-squatted down to look at her.
“Are you angry?”
“Do I not have the right to be angry?”L i Qianxue pointed in the direction of the door. “Who allowed you to enter my room? And who allowed you to enter the Li Family? Don’t forget, we are already divorced.”
“I didn’t forget.” Su Chenghui looked at the anger on her face. He no longer felt helpless and anxious like before. He felt regret and self-blame.
There were still some emotions, but more than that, he was willing to put his heart into doing some actual things instead of using it on useless regrets.
“Qianxue, are you so angry because of me coming here? Or is it because of the kiss just now?”
“You –”
“If it’s because of me coming here, my daughter and son are here, so I can’t think of what’s wrong with me coming to see them. If it’s because of the kiss just now –”
“Shut up.” Li Qianxue raised her voice, but Su Chenghui grabbed her hand.
“You felt something just now, right?”
“I didn’t. Su Chenghui, shut up.”
Li Qianxue was really embarra.s.sed and angry. Who would feel anything? She didn’t feel anything at all.
“I hate you. I already hate you so much so how could I feel anything? You –”
Before she could finish her sentence, Su Chenghui kissed her lips again. It was even more pa.s.sionate than before. It was even more sensual and impudent.
He tried his best to get a reaction from her.
She sat in the wheelchair and was suppressed by him until she had nowhere to run, until she became a puddle of water again.
He stepped back a little and pressed his forehead against hers. He watched her breathing quicken and her face turn red. He reached out and gently caressed her face.
“Look, you have a reaction too.”
“…” Li Qianxue was speechless. She should have slapped him or punched him directly, but she really didn’t have the strength now.
If she wasn’t sitting in the wheelchair, she might have fallen to the ground. She didn’t expect Su Chenghui to do this again, and she didn’t expect Su Chenghui’s kiss to be so irresistible.
For a moment, she froze in the wheelchair and couldn’t come back to her senses for a long time.
“Shameless.” After holding it in for a long time, Li Qianxue only said this sentence.
“Yes, I know.” He didn’t deny it. Holding her face, he looked at her seriously. “But what should I do? When I see you, I only wanted to do some shameless things.”
Looking at the stunned Li Qianxue, he wanted to laugh again. Li Qianxue was less cold and arrogant, but more cute.
He couldn’t help but peck on her lips. “Qianxue, you’re so cute.”
Li Qianxue’s face instantly turned red. Su Chenghui, was he coaxing her like a child?
She was already in her forties, and he actually said she was cute? Her heart rose and fell, but she didn’t say the words to chase him away anymore.
In the current situation, she had lost a few points in terms of momentum. How could she still have the face to chase him away?
Because of this, Li Qianxue’s expression became even worse.
… ..
When Su Chenghui’s car stopped at the entrance of the company, his mind was still thinking about Li Qianxue.
Whether it was her blush and heartbeat from being kissed by him, or her reaction from being teased by him, they all made him think about it again and again.
This kind of feeling was actually very wonderful. In the past, when he didn’t discover his feelings, no matter what Li Qianxue did, he could ignore it.
But when he truly discovered his feelings and understood his thoughts, he felt that Li Qianxue’s every move was fascinating to him.
The angry her, the annoyed her, the cold and stern her, no matter which side it was, all of them made him feel moved.
When he thought about how she had rejected his approach when she went downstairs because she was angry, and how she had taken the initiative to sit beside her daughter, he felt a wave of joy.
No matter what, today’s progress had exceeded his expectations. Qianxue’s emotions fluctuated. No matter if she was angry or hateful, happy or resentful, in his opinion, it was a good thing.
At the very least, it meant that she was not indifferent to everything about him. He would also have more confidence, and persevere to make her soften, feel stirred, and even fall in love with him again.
He was in a good mood. When he entered the office, his footsteps were extremely light.
Because of Li Qianxue’s injury in the past two days, he had been taking care of her in the hospital. Although he did not fall behind on his work, there were indeed some things that he had to personally ask about.
Qiao Ran followed him into the office as soon as he entered. After reporting today’s routine, he placed a few resumes in front of Su Chenghui.
“President Su, Secretary Huang is about to give birth to her second child, so she had to find someone to fill her position. You once said that you wanted you to personally interview your secretary. These are the top few for the written exam. Take a look.”
“Leave them.”
Su Chenghui had two secretaries. The General Secretary’s surname was Huang, and had been working for him for several years. He was quite level headed when it came to doing things.
However, Secretary Huang had recently become pregnant with a second child. She was not young anymore and wanted to give birth to the child. She had told him early on that she planned to go and have the baby after this month.
Her position was vacant, so Su Chenghui asked Qiao Ran to hire someone.
“The first and second place candidates in this written test are not bad. The others also have their own merits. I’ve scheduled the interview for this afternoon. Do you think it’s okay?”
“Okay.” It was impossible for Su Chenghui to interview everyone. There were only three or four people in total. The amount of investment cases he was handling now was not small.
The people who worked with him, whether it was Secretary Huang or Qiao ran, had been with him for many years. He hoped that the people he could recruit in the future would be loyal and reliable.
However, Su Chenghui did not expect to meet an acquaintance during the interview in the afternoon.
“Uncle?”
When Jing Shu entered the room, she saw Su Chenghui. Her eyes lit up and she looked pleasantly surprised.
“Uncle, why are you here? Are you here for the interview as well?” She walked into the room cheerfully, as if she did not notice that Su Chenghui was sitting in a seat that was not suitable for someone being interviewed.
Su Chenghui looked at her smiling face. When she smiled, she looked more similar to Su Peizhen.
Thinking of his daughter, Su Chenghui relaxed his expression a little.
“Yes. I’m here for an interview.”
“Really?” Jing Shu sighed. “Then what should I do? Uncle, aren’t you my compet.i.tor? But let me tell you, uncle, I won’t admit defeat. I believe that my ability won’t lose to yours.”
“Really?” This confident look was also very similar. Su Chenghui pulled out her information and took a look.
“Your name is Jing Shu?”
“Yes.” Jing Shu seemed to understand now. “But Uncle, how did you know?”
She looked at the information in front of Su Chenghui and then looked at the seat he was sitting in. She seemed to suddenly understand.
“Huh? Uncle, you… you’re the interviewer? You’re from Qianhui Corporation?”
“Yes.” Su Chenghui sat down and looked at Jing Shu’s shocked face. He calmed down and put on a business-like att.i.tude. “Sit down. You came in second on the written test. Your results are not bad, but I still have some questions to ask you.”
“Go ahead.” Jing Shu’s att.i.tude changed after she found out that Su Chenghui was the interviewer.
She sat up straight with a serious look on her face. The smile on her small face disappeared, and there was obvious nervousness in her eyes.
“Relax a little. It’s not a difficult question.”
Su Chenghui did not make things too difficult for her, since she was similar to Su Peizhen. “You’re twenty-three today? You’ve only graduated from college for a year?”
“Yes.” Jing Shu was a little embarra.s.sed when she said this. “Yes. I’ve only graduated for a year, and I only have one year of work experience.”
“You weren’t in Lin City before? Then why did you want to develop in Lin City?”
“Can I not tell you?” Jing Shu looked at Su Chenghui as if she did not really want to answer this question.
Su Chenghui furrowed his brows. “Sure. Then can you tell me the reason for your resignation?”
No company would like an employee who kept changing jobs. Su Chenghui was naturally the same.
“Can I not answer this question?”
Jing Shu’s answer made Su Chenghui’s expression become more serious. He raised his head, as if this was the first time he was looking at this little girl in front of him.
“If that’s the case, then I can only refuse to hire you.”
Jing Shu’s face fell instantly. Su Chenghui did not feel much sympathy for her. It was one thing for him to feel close to her because she looked somewhat similar to Su Peizhen, but business was another thing.
No matter how much she looked like Su Peizhen, she was not Su Peizhen.
And he had always been very serious about business. He pressed the call b.u.t.ton and was about to call for the next interviewee.
However, Jing Shu suddenly grabbed his hand. “I’ll talk.”
Seemingly unwilling, she lowered her head. “Actually, the reason I came to Lin City was because of my boyfriend.”
“I used to work in my hometown, and everything was fine. But my boyfriend felt that we were living in two different places, and he wanted me to come to Lin City. I refused, and he said that I didn’t love him. Later, I finally compromised, but he kept complaining.
“I loved my boyfriend very much. After much thought, I convinced my parents to come to Lin City, but I didn’t expect that my boyfriend was just lying to me. When I wasn’t by his side, he already had a new lover.”
“What are you trying to say?”
Su Chenghui didn’t understand the main point of her words.
“I’m trying to say that the purpose of my interview with your company isn’t as lofty as other interviewees. I was just feeling resentful. I could have gone home, but I quit my job and ran away. I would definitely be laughed at if I went back. I also don’t want my ex-boyfriend to look down on me. So I came here for an interview to find a job and prove to my boyfriend that I can do it.”
Jing Shu seemed to be embarra.s.sed. She looked at Su Chenghui. “So, that’s how it is. I can’t be like other applicants who say that I joined your company because I love this industry. My purpose wasn’t that simple from the start.”
Looking very uncomfortable, she twisted her fingers.
Su Chenghui looked at her resume and thought for a moment. “Alright. I got it.”
“Uncle?” Jing Shu seemed to want to say something else. Su Chenghui knocked on the table. “Next Monday, you can report to the company’s personnel department. Then I’ll get someone to take you and tell you what you have to do.”
“Uncle, you… Are you hiring me? Really?”Jing Shu looked shocked. She couldn’t believe that she had such good luck.
“Yes. I’m hiring you.” Su Chenghui looked at her surprised expression and smiled. “What? Didn’t you say you want to prove it to your boyfriend? If you don’t work, how are you going to prove it?”
“Uncle, don’t worry. I’ll definitely work hard.” Jing Shu stood up with an excited look on her face. “I’ll definitely work hard, and I’ll study even harder. I’ll definitely not drag down the company. Really, Uncle. Trust me.”
“That’s enough.” Su Chenghui didn’t get angry at her incoherent words. They had all been young, so it was understandable that they were a little unstable.
“Go ahead. Remember to report next week.”
“Of course, of course.” Jing Shu took a step back. She was so excited that she almost stepped on her own foot. She smiled uncomfortably. “Goodbye, Uncle. You’re such a good person.”
“Stop right there.” Su Chenghui called out to her when he saw that the other party was about to pull the door open. Jing Shu stopped and turned to look at Su Chenghui.
“Work hard. And remember to call me President Su next time.”
He didn’t want people to think that there was favoritism in the company.
“Got it.” Jing Shu saluted him. Just as she was about to call him Uncle, she changed her words and said, “Goodbye, President Su.”
Jing Shu walked out of the door. She didn’t look as stupid as she had pretended to be in Su Chenghui’s office. She took out her phone and sent a message.
There was only one sentence on it: everything went smoothly according to the plan.
