Chapter 715: You Didn’t Lose Anything

Li Qianxue looked at the relaxed expression on his face and secretly gritted her teeth. She had slept with Su Chenghui for more than 20 years. How could she not understand that this was just his way of goading her?

If she really agreed, such a big project, she would have to deal with Su Chenghui for a period of time.

To be honest, Su Chenghui had bought this piece of land before he left the Li Corporation. Later, because of the cooperation with the Tianyu Group on several projects, the use of this piece of land was temporarily put on hold.

Su Chenghui was clearly aware of this, so after the Li Corporation presented its proposal, he took out the proposal again. He probably had been waiting for this day.

For this day, he had really put in a lot of effort.

She kept a cold face and didn’t say anything. She wasn’t in a good mood, so her face naturally showed some emotions.

If possible, she was very unwilling to see Su Chenghui, but he was right about one thing. She was indeed a person who separated business and personal matters.

She wouldn’t affect the operation of the company because of her personal feelings. Letting Su Chenghui leave the company was one of the few times that she couldn’t separate business from personal.

“Qianxue, you won’t lose anything, will you?”

Su Chenghui looked into her eyes. He didn’t mind continuing to persuade her. “In fact, you and I both know that even if you work with the Tianyu Group, there are some things that are more convenient for me to do. After all, for so many years, I know the relationships of the Li Corporation as well as you.”

“Don’t make it sound like I can’t do it without you, or the Li Corporation can’t do it without you.”

“Of course you can.” Su Chenghui didn’t deny it. “However, just take it that I can’t bear to let you be too tired. So, isn’t it better to let me do these things?”

“You make yourself sound so high-minded, as if you didn’t benefit from it.”

“Yes. I benefited.” Su Chenghui smiled. His face was elegant yet clear. The older a man was, the more popular he would be. This was also true for Su Chenghui.

The Su Chenghui in front of her was still the same Su Chenghui, but in the past year or so, he had changed a lot.

The most obvious point was that he had more smiling faces in front of her than before. In her memory, Su Chenghui always had a cold face, and when he spoke to her, he was always aloof.

But now, Su Chenghui smiled in front of her from time to time. Sometimes, her facial expression was obviously very ugly, but he could ignore it.

She wasn’t used to Su Chenghui like this.

Li Qianxue silently moved her body back a little. But behind her was a chair, so there was no way to move back.

Noticing her evasive action, Su Chenghui didn’t feel depressed or unhappy. It would be abnormal if she could accept him immediately.

“So, Qianxue, you agree to my proposal just now?”

“This is a proposal? This is clearly a threat.”

Li Qianxue used the action of standing up to avoid his approach. She took a step back and stood behind the office chair to look at him.

“Su Chenghui, you don’t have to beat around the bush. I know what your goal is. You did a good job with the proposal. I admit it, but your goal will eventually fall through.”

“Even if you agree, don’t forget. Since you’re so worried about me being tired, I can just ignore it, right?”

In short, she just didn’t want to have the chance to meet him. She wanted to keep a distance from him. Su Chenghui understood.

“Yes, you can just ignore it. I don’t want to use this to achieve anything. I can slowly wait for you to change your mind.”

Li Qianxue was very unaccustomed to Su Chenghui’s habit of confessing his love everywhere and all the time.

This unaccustomed feeling made her automatically delete and block all the words Su Chenghui said. Instead, she treated everything he said as if it were nothing more than sweet talk, and she didn’t take them seriously.

“If you’re done, you can go.”

“Qianxue, are you trying to burn the bridge after crossing the river?” Su Chenghui seemed to be a little helpless as he sighed. “Alright, then I’ll leave first. Qianxue, I’ll get someone to print out the contract tomorrow. When the time comes, I’ll look for you to sign it.”

Li Qianxue’s lips pursed into a straight line. At this moment, she suddenly regretted it.

No matter how perfect the proposal was, so what if it was worth a few hundred million? The moment she thought of meeting Su Chenghui and reconnecting with him, she suddenly felt her mood turn gloomy.

However, Su Chenghui seemed to be completely unaware of her struggle. “Qianxue, if you feel that the contract is not suitable and you want to change it, you can also tell me. You have my number.”

“Even if you don’t have any, if there is anything else you want me to do, I can do it too.”

Li Qianxue was impatient to hear him say these sweet words. In the past, she wanted to hear hem but couldn’t. Now, no matter what he said, she wouldn’t believe him.

“The door is over there. Please do as you please.”

After Su Chenghui left, Li Qianxue put all her attention on work. Only then did she finally shake off some of the depression caused by the matter of cooperating with Su Chenghui.

However, when it was almost time to get off work, another person who gave her a headache came.

Wei Ting appeared in her office with a large bouquet of roses in his arms. Looking at the extremely exaggerated bouquet of 99 roses, Li Qianxue really felt a headache.

Seeing her expression, Wei Ting took a step forward at the right time with a fawning look on his face.

“Qianxue, did you forget? I made an appointment with you yesterday to have dinner with you tonight.”

Li Qianxue didn’t lose her memory, so she naturally remembered what she had agreed to in order to send this person away yesterday.

“Flowers for a beauty.” Wei Ting handed the rose in his hand to Li Qianxue, and the smile on his face looked very bright. “Qianxue, what do you want to eat tonight?”

Li Qianxue thought of what Old Master Li said when she went out this morning, and she looked at Wei Ting with some hesitation.

“Wei Ting, can we have dinner another time? I promised my father that I would go home for dinner today.”

She had been having a lot of social engagements recently. It had been a few days since she had dinner with Old Master Li.

Wei Ting’s eyes lit up, as if he had suddenly found an idea. “Isn’t that just right? I can just go and visit Old Master.”

“Wei Ting, stop fooling around.” How could Li Qianxue be in that sort of relationship with him where he had the position to visit her elder?

“I’m not fooling around.” Wei Ting blinked his eyes. His young and sunny face looked sincere. “I can go and tell uncle that I want to pursue you. At the same time, I can get him to agree to my pursuit.”

Li Qianxue wanted to laugh. The Wei Ting in front of her sometimes made her feel like she was looking after a child.

“Wei Ting, first of all, you don’t need my father’s consent to pursue me. You need my consent. Second of all, you and I don’t seem to have reached the point of meeting parents. Third of all, we’re really not compatible. If I were you, I would stop thinking about it now.”

“I don’t understand. Qianxue, you always say that we aren’t compatible. How are we not compatible?”

“Wei Ting, how old are you this year?”

“Thirty-four years old, why?” According to the year, he was thirty-three years old. But at this time, Wei Ting didn’t mind saying that he was older.

“I’m forty-eight years old.” Li Qianxue never avoided talking about her age. “I am fourteen years older than you. According to the ancient saying, I can almost be your mother.”

“My mother isn’t as young as you.” Wei Ting looked at Li Qianxue with a serious face. Her fair face didn’t have any spots. “My mother gave birth to me late, so don’t worry. My mother looks the same age as you. Moreover, in your current state, let alone my sister, even if you tell others that you are my sister, people will believe you.”

Li Qianxue looked like she was in her early thirties at most. If she took off this suit and dressed younger, people would believe her even if she said she was less than thirty.

“Wei Ting.” Was that the point? That wasn’t the point at all. “I just wanted to explain why it’s impossible for us.”

“That’s what you think. I think it’s very possible.”

“Wei Ting, I already have a son and a daughter. I feel very guilty towards my daughter. I only have these two children in my life.”

“I know, so what?”

“That means, even if what you said is serious, even if you really don’t mind that I was married, had children, and even became a grandmother, I don’t believe that you don’t mind even if you don’t have your own children.”

Wei Ting frowned. Li Qianxue had been saying that they weren’t suitable for each other for more than half a year. However, this was the first time she had mentioned children.

He frowned. He had really thought about Li Qianxue’s question. “If you really get together with me, I think we can adopt.”

“You see, you still don’t understand what I mean.” Li Qianxue didn’t mind explaining again. “I said that I feel very guilty about my daughter, which means that I no longer have the energy to love another child, no matter who gave birth to that child.”

It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought about giving all of her love to Su Yuxin and Su Qingsang for the rest of her life.

Su Yuxin was a boy. When he graduated, he would get married and have another child. No matter what, she had watched him grow up and raised him by her side, so she didn’t feel so guilty.

But towards Su Qingsang, her guilt was real. This kind of guilt wouldn’t disappear just because Su Qingsang got married and met a husband who was very good to her.

She had long been prepared. When Su Yuxin graduated and could slowly take over the company, she wanted to go to Rong City.

She was Su Qingsang’s biological mother. The things that she could do wereb;t necessarily fewer than the things that Xiang Caiping, who she met halfway, could do, right?

“That doesn’t matter. As long as I love the child, it’s fine. I don’t mind.”

Li Qianxue’s attitude changed at this time, and she looked at Wei Ting very seriously. The boy in front of her, who was more than ten years younger than her, said such serious words, which surprised her very much.

Even if he didn’t use his brain and only said it to coax her, she couldn’t help but feel a little touched.

She had the feeling of liking someone, but never getting a response.

At this moment, even if Wei Ting’s words weren’t very sincere, there was still a 70-80% chance. She couldn’t help but feel a little touched.

“I’m telling the truth. I’m younger than you, but under normal circumstances, I’m not young anymore. I haven’t married for so many years because I’ve really only focused on work. Of course, I’ve had girlfriends before, but when I used to spend less time with them, or when I couldn’t spend time with them because of work, they would be especially angry at me.”

“Ever since I met you, I’ve always wondered why I like you so much. But crushes aren’t reasonable, and I don’t know what I like about you, but I just like you.”

“As for what you said, I’ve thought about it according to my age. One thing I’m very sure of is that if I were really with you, you definitely wouldn’t be like those little girls, throwing tantrums at me because I can’t be with you.”

“Qianxue, I admit that I didn’t like you that much at first, but after half a year, I feel that not only did I not like you less, I liked you even more.”

“When I confirmed my feelings, when I decided to pursue you with all my might, as for these questions that you mentioned, whether it was the judgment of others or the problems that we would encounter, I had thought of them all. So, I can tell you now very calmly and rationally that I like you very much. I like you so much that I can accept any condition that you say.”

“As for the obstacles, I have thought about it, and there might be, but if our feelings for each other are strong enough, why should we be afraid of those obstacles?”

He was eloquent, his eyes were serious, and his words were really pleasant to hear.

Li Qianxue was touched just now, but at this moment, it turned into 30% .

She was a mature, calm, and rational person. She didn’t have any feelings of love or affection for Wei Ting, but at this moment, she knew that she was touched by his words.

Even if she couldn’t confirm his feelings in the end, even if the two of them couldn’t be together in the end.

At this moment, Wei Ting moved her. And the heart of someone who liked him couldn’t be hurt.

“Wei Ting…”

“Qianxue.” Wei Ting thought that she was going to reject him again, so he raised his hand. “Can you not reject me now? Even if you really don’t like me, I think you can give me a chance to show off, right? Maybe one day, you will be moved by me and fall in love with me?”

Li Qianxue really didn’t know what to say to this person.

“So, Qianxue, are you willing to give me this chance now?”

Li Qianxue’s words of refusal were already on the tip of her tongue. When she met his gaze, she swallowed her words back.

“Didn’t you say we’ll go eat? Let’s go.”

“Qianxue, are you not going to refuse?”

“Not at all.” Li Qianxue looked at his smiling face and said helplessly, “I just owe you a meal from yesterday.”

“I don’t care. I’ll take it that you agree.”

The smile on Wei Ting’s face was a little childish. Li Qianxue looked at him following beside her. The smile on his face had never disappeared. There was a subtle change in her mood.

This person and Su Chenghui were two completely different types of people.

Su Chenghui was refined, and his emotions weren’t very obvious. Most of the time, he was reserved and deep.

However, Wei Ting was different. He was bright and cheerful, and there was a kind of difference between a man and a boy.

“You’re staring at me. Does that mean that my face is very handsome?”

Wei Ting sensed Li Qianxue’s gaze and moved closer to her. Li Qianxue, not wanting to see him act so arrogantly, took half a step to the side.

“I don’t think you’re very handsome. You’re nowhere near as handsome as my son and son-in-law.”

Wei Ting choked and almost choked on his own saliva. Alright, Huo Jinyao was just a little more handsome than him. However, he refused to admit that Su Yuxin was more handsome than him.

“Your son is still a young boy. How is he more handsome than me?”

“Who are you calling a young boy?” How was her son like a young boy?

He was now going to school. Previously, at home, he had handled everything in an orderly manner, whether it was the company or family matters.

Su Yuxin had been neglected by Su Chenghui for more than ten years, whether intentionally or not. She was already very satisfied that Su Yuxin didn’t grow crooked and still had the achievements he had today.

“I misspoke. Qianxue, don’t be angry. What I mean is, although your son is handsome, he is still young and needs a bit of maturing. I’m different. I have the charm of a mature man.”

Mature man? Li Qianxue suddenly thought of Su Chenghui.

Back then, wasn’t her heart moved because of Su Chenghui’s so-called mature man temperament?

However, a man’s maturity was sometimes only on the surface. The more mature he was, the more ruthless he might be.

“Sometimes, maturity isn’t necessarily a good thing.”

It was actually very rare to be able to maintain a pure heart.

Wei Ting didn’t hear this clearly and couldn’t help but move closer. “What did you say?”

Li Qianxue found that she actually thought of Su Chenghui at such a time. Her expression was a little worried for a moment.

The elevator arrived at this time. She didn’t answer Wei Ting’s question and directly stepped into the elevator.

Wei Ting shrugged helplessly and followed Li Qianxue into the elevator.

Li Qianxue agreed to have dinner with Wei Ting, but she didn’t dare to really take him home. She got into his car and thought for a moment, then asked Wei Ting to drive the car to Linyuan Pavilion.

There were many high-end places in Lin City, but the few places that she was familiar with were the best at keeping secrets.

The car turned into Linyuan Pavilion’s parking lot and didn’t stop. Two cars followed behind them.

One was Li Qianxue’s car. The driver, Xiao Yin, was driving it. After Li Qianxue got out of the car, the other car could be seen clearly.

That was Su Chenghui’s car.

Was he following her?

As if to prove her guess, the door opened and Su Chenghui got out of the car.

Just like that, he walked in front of Li Qianxue. At the same time, Wei Ting also got out of the car and walked around to the side of the car.

The two of them stood there and looked at each other.

Li Qianxue only looked at Su Chenghui, and her eyes were slightly cold.

“Were you following me?”

If Su Chenghui dared to say yes, she believed that she would definitely slap him without hesitation.

“Not really.” Su Chenghui shook his head. Holding the contract in his hand, he said, “I just remembered that I still have some details to tell you about the cooperation, so I went to your company to look for you. I didn’t expect that I would just happen to see you leaving in this gentleman’s car.”

Su Chenghui deliberately didn’t address Wei Ting, but only said this gentleman. As for whether he wanted to talk about the details of the cooperation, he wouldn’t admit it, not at all.

Yesterday, he had heard Wei Ting asking Li Qianxue to have dinner with him today.

So after he calculated the time at which she would get off work, he went back to the Li Corporation’s building to watch over Li Qianxue.
