In the night wind, under the street lamps, she stared at him with burning eyes. This hadn’t happened for a long time.

Su Chenghui was tempted and almost couldn’t help but want to pull her into his arms. He had never thought of getting close to her before, but now, he always wanted to find an opportunity to get close to her.

It was really like a river flowing in the east for ten years, and a river flowing in the west for ten years.

“Su Chenghui.” Li Qianxue couldn’t wait for an answer and had already lost her patience. “If you say it, then say it. If you won’t say it, then forget it.”

In any case, it wasn’t a big deal. At most, they would lose a few hundred million. It wasn’t that the Li Corporation couldn’t afford to lose it. It was just that it would take a lot of explaining to do to the shareholders.

“You don’t want me to tell you my plan on the road, do you?”

Su Chenghui gently withdrew his hand, and the smile on his face was subtle. In just a few seconds, he returned to his usual elegant appearance.

“Where are you going to tell me? You should know that I don’t have the habit of eating supper.”

Li Qianxue cared about her health very much, not to mention that the Li family usually ate lightly. She basically didn’t eat at night, except for occasionally eating a bowl of swallow’s nest to calm her nerves.

If Su Chenghui still wanted to find a place to continue the conversation, she might not be willing to listen.

“Why don’t we go to your office tomorrow and talk about it in detail?”

Li Qianxue couldn’t laugh. “Su Chenghui, I didn’t know you were so shameless.”

“How is this shameless?” Su Chenghui’s expression was sincere. “I care about the Li Corporation and don’t want you to suffer losses.”

“Ha.” Li Qianxue sneered. “Have I suffered enough losses from you?”

“Yes, you have.” Su Chenghui admitted frankly. Half of his body crossed the car seat and came in front of Li Qianxue. “That’s why I hope to have a chance to make up for it.”

“Sweet words make one look more beautiful.”

Li Qianxue was unmoved. Her beauty was unparalleled. Even at her age, it only made her look more calm and noble than a young woman.

This cold look didn’t make Su Chenghui retreat. Instead, it made him more annoyed and wanted to make up for it.

“Then do you want to Know my plan or not?” Su Chenghui held her hand. “According to my plan, the proposal will still work. The Li Corporation won’t suffer any losses.”

“The Li Corporation won’t suffer any losses now.”

“But the profits will be lowered. What if I can guarantee that the profits of the Li Corporation won’t be lowered and will be better than your original plan?”

Li Qianxue was about to pull her hand back, but she paused because of Su Chenghui’s words.

Although she was angry with this person now, she had to admit one thing. It was Su Chenghui’s methods and abilities.

After being married for more than 20 years, she had followed him to bring the Li Corporation to where they were today, so she naturally knew about it.

“Su Chenghui, you have to know that the Li Corporation today doesn’t care about the loss of a few hundred million. What makes you think that I will give you an opportunity to get close to me for a piece of land?”

“The Li Corporation indeed doesn’t care, but to convince those shareholders, I think it will take a lot of effort. With me around, I can help you save these troubles, so why not?”

Li Qianxue sat still. Su Chenghui moved his body forward. “If I propose a plan, it can double the benefits of the Li Corporation. I think those shareholders will not only not make things difficult for you, they will also thank you, right?”

There was silence in the car. Li Qianxue knew that he was telling the truth.

In fact, the shareholders of the company had some complaints about Su Chenghui leaving the Li Corporation. After all, the benefits of the shareholders had been increasing every year since Su Chenghui had taken over the Li Corporation.

Li Qianxue had taken over the company for a year, so there would naturally be no big trouble. However, Su Chenghui had been in charge of some of the businesses before. She had indeed spent a few months to bring the company back on track and appease the shareholders.

“Qianxue, can’t you trust me just this once?”

Li Qianxue looked at the enlarged face in front of her. She suddenly withdrew her hand and leaned against the back of the chair. “Send me home.”

If she didn’t object, it meant that she agreed. Li Qianxue had always valued the Li Corporation. In her heart, other than her family, only her own company could make her care.

Su Chenghui let out a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Li Qianxue wouldn’t even take the Li Corporation seriously. When that time came, he would really be in trouble.

Seeing Li Qianxue turn around and look at the street scene, Su Chenghui leaned over and kissed her face.

When Li Qianxue glared at him, he quickly sat up straight and started the car.

“Su Chenghui.” Li Qianxue hadn’t been this angry for a long time. “Don’t go too far.”

“Yes. I’ll be careful next time.” Su Chenghui turned to look at her. “Next time, I will definitely ask for your consent.”

“Who would agree to such a thing?”

“You didn’t object, so I’ll take it as your consent.”

Li Qianxue was about to flare up again, but she realized that in this way, she had taken the initiative to talk to him. Feeling annoyed, she turned her face away from him.

The car stopped at the Li family’s villa. Su Chenghui’s car originally didn’t want to enter, but when the villa’s sensor door scanned his license plate number, it opened directly.

Su Chenghui drove straight in. This action made Li Qianxue very angry.

She was going to tell Uncle Zhang tomorrow to delete Su Chenghui’s license plate number from the database, so that he would never be able to enter again.

“We’re here.” Su Chenghui stopped the car and found that Li Qianxue was still angry. He looked calm on the surface, but his heart was actually very bitter.

“I’ll look for you in your office tomorrow afternoon.”

Li Qianxue didn’t want to talk to him anymore and directly got out of the car.

“Qianxue.” Su Chenghui suddenly called out to her. She stopped in her tracks but didn’t turn around.

“Good night. Sweet dreams.”

Li Qianxue had a slight toothache. She quickened her pace and quickly entered the main residence.

She didn’t expect that when she entered the door, Old Master Li was still awake. Recently, he liked to play chess. Previously, he had gone to Rong City a few times and played chess with Old Master Huo. The two of them were equally skilled in chess. When playing chess, there were wins and losses.

In the past, they didn’t interact much. Now that he had a great-grandson and granddaughter, he would have to travel to Rong City more often. Therefore, he was especially willing to spend time in this area.

“Qianxue, come. See what move I should make next?”

No matter how much unpleasant emotions Li Qianxue had outside, when she returned home to meet her old father, her face was restrained.

“Let me see.”She walked to the front of the chess board and stood still. Before she could ask, Old Master Li stared at the chess board and said without raising his head.

“Chenghui sent you back?”

Li Qianxue was stunned. Knowing that Old Master Li had seen it, she didn’t deny it. “Yes.”

“You guys…”

“We have nothing.” Li Qianxue sat down opposite him. She picked up the black piece and placed it on the chessboard.

“I had an appointment with Mayor Li today, and he happened to be there. When I came back, Xiao Zhao had something to do, so he said he would send me back.”

Old Master Li picked up the white piece and placed it on the chessboard. “Yes. It was a coincidence, but he has been chasing you very diligently this year, right?”

Li Qianxue’s face almost changed. “Dad, which eye of yours saw him chasing me?”

“No?” Old Master Li finally raised his head to look at her. “You went to Rong City, and he went to Rong City. You asked Mayor Li, and he also asked Mayor Li. He sent you home, didn’t he?”

“He went to Rong City to see Qingsang, not for me. As for asking Mayor Li, his new company also has a lot of matters so he needs to deal with the higher-ups. What does it have to do with me?”

“So, you don’t plan to get married again?”

“Of course not.” Li Qianxue raised her voice. “Even if I don’t get married in this life, I won’t get involved with him again.”

Old Master Li was silent and looked at the chessboard. “It’s good that you don’t. However, it’s impossible not to get married. I heard that a young man also pursued you very hard?”

“Dad, where did you hear that?”

“Why not? The other party helped our company upgrade the software. He could have left after the upgrade. In the end, he comes to our company every day to fix the company’s website flaws and treats you to meals. Isn’t this a romantic pursuit?”

“Dad, it’s impossible between Wei Ting and me. Don’t think about it.”

“Nothing’s impossible. Bring him to me next time. I’m not that stubborn. If he really likes you, it’s okay to be a few years younger.”

“Dad, is that just a few years? A dozen years. If it were in ancient times, I could be his mother. What are you thinking?”

“Freedom of marriage, freedom of love. Look at the French president. Didn’t he also find someone much older than him?”

“Dad.” Li Qianxue found that she couldn’t communicate with Old Master Li anymore. “Okay, I know my own matters. You don’t have to meddle.”

“I don’t want to meddle either. It’s just that I’m old. Yuxin went to school. Although he said that he would come back in a few years, but after he cames back, he would probably have a family. Qingsang is far away in Rong City. Even if the transportation is convenient, the number of times you two meet is limited. It doesn’t matter to me since I’m old, but I also want someone by your side. It doesn’t matter whether or not he can help you with anything. I just want him to accompany you and take care of you.”

“If you don’t like Chenghui and that young man, there are quite a number of family friends who have lost their wives. When the time comes, you should find another suitable one.”

Li Qianxue’s lips moved. Looking at the white hair on Old Master Li’s head, she was going to agree, but the words that came out of her mouth changed, she still showed some resistance.

“Dad, it’s easy for you to say that I need to find someone to take care of me. The fact that I don’t need anyone to take care of me aside, even if I do find someone like Su Chenghui, haven’t I had enough for the past twenty years?”

Old Master Li was speechless and his expression was a little bad. Li Qianxue softened her tone.

“Dad, you don’t have to care about my matters. It’s fine now. Besides, my children are all grown up. I’m really not in the mood.”

There was a hint of guilt in Old Master Li’s eyes. “In the end, someone once bitten by a snake will for ten years be frightened at the sight of a rope. You’ve been hurt by Cheng Hui too deeply.”

“If you say so, then so be it.” Li Qianxue didn’t deny it. “My enthusiasm has all been used up. If you really want me to love and be with someone now, I really can’t get up to it. So Dad, you don’t have to care about my business, okay? I’m an adult and I can take care of myself. I also know what’s good for me.”

Old Master Li had nothing to say. The father and daughter looked at each other without saying anything. In the end, Li Qianxue went upstairs to rest.
