After he finished his sentence, Su Chenghui walked up to Li Qianxue.

“It doesn’t seem appropriate for President Wei to say that, does it?”

One hand was placed on Li Qianxue’s shoulder, while the other carefully avoided her injured hand and placed it on her waist.

“Qianxue is an adult. She has her own thoughts and considerations. She can be with whoever she wants to be with. Does she need your permission?”

Wei Ting looked at Su Chenghui’s actions and his mood became even gloomier.

“She doesn’t need my permission, but as Qianxue’s pursuer, I want a fair chance to compete. What are you doing?”

“Wei Ting.” Li Qianxue looked at Wei Ting. She had a good impression of Wei Ting, but the age gap was there. She really couldn’t accept Wei Ting.

“I know how you feel. I really thank you, but who I’m with has nothing to do with you.”

Of course, Wei Ting knew, but it was because of this that he felt wronged. “Who can’t you choose? Why must you look for him?”

Could it be that she had forgotten all the things Su Chenghui had done?

“President Wei, isn’t it inappropriate for you to say that? What’s wrong with Qianxue choosing me?” Su Chenghui felt uncomfortable when he heard this. He was her official husband. Even if they were divorced, she would still be his first wife.

“What’s inappropriate? Don’t you know what you’ve done to Qianxue? Besides, you have an illegitimate daughter.”

Su Chenghui was the first to be speechless. Everything else was easy to talk about. This matter was indeed his fault, and it was already irreparable. He looked in Li Qianxue’s direction nervously.

Li Qianxue had a headache. She looked at Wei Ting, who looked like a child.

To be honest, she didn’t hate Wei Ting, but the difference in age between her and him was obvious. In her eyes, Wei Ting was like a child. He didn’t have any bad intentions, but he was really childish.

“Wei Ting, this is between me and Su Chenghui. It has nothing to do with you.”

“I’m just feeling wronged on your behalf.” Wei Ting pointed in Su Chenghui’s direction. “You raised an illegitimate daughter for this man for more than 20 years and gave birth to two children for him. How did he repay you? How can a man like this be stronger than me?”

In the end, this was what made Wei Ting unconvinced.

Li Qianxue really couldn’t answer such a question. Feelings and love, if it was something that a person could control, she also hoped that she could choose the side that was more beneficial to her.

“Wei Ting, if you’re here to celebrate my birthday today, then I thank you. If you’re here to say these things, then I’m sorry, I don’t intend to continue talking to you.”

She was a determined person. Since she had already made a decision today, she would give Su Chenghui a chance and wouldn’t waver.

Towards Wei Ting, she felt like she was looking at a junior. It was not that she did not know about his sincerity, so her tone was gentle.

Everyone’s sincerity should not be trampled on. Even if one could not accept the other party’s feelings.

After she finished speaking, she walked inside. Wei Ting had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow behind her.

“I’m here to celebrate your birthday. Qianxue, are you trying to shut me out?”

“Why would I?” Li Qianxue saw the wronged expression on his face and smiled. “A guest is a guest. If you don’t mind, let’s have dinner together tonight.”

“I don’t mind, I don’t mind.” Wei Ting was overjoyed. When he turned to look at Su Chenghui, his gaze was a little provocative.

Hmph. Don’t think that Qianxue is so great just because she went out with you. Look, Qianxue also let me in.

Childish. Su Chenghui told himself not to lower himself to Wei Ting’s level, but for some reason, he felt a little bitter.

Seeing Li Qianxue bringing Wei Ting and Su Chenghui into the house together, Old Master Li was a little confused.

He wasn’t the only one who was confused. Su Qingsang and Su Yuxin were also confused. What was going on?

Li Qianxue ignored their quizzical expressions and called Xiao Tao over. She told her to tell the kitchen that there were guests at home tonight.

There was no need for special instructions. Huo Jinyao was here with the children, so Auntie Zhang would prepare everything.

“Qianxue?” It was not appropriate for the others to ask, but Old Master Li could ask.

“It’s okay, Dad. You know Wei Ting too. He came to celebrate my birthday today, so I asked him to stay for dinner.”

Old Master Li nodded. Wei Ting was staying for dinner, but what about Su Chenghui?

Just as Li Qianxue was about to sit down, she found Su Chenghui and Wei Ting standing next to her. They looked like they would sit down together if she sat down.

She looked left and then right. Her eyes met the eyes of her daughter, son-in-law, and son across the sofa. Her lips moved, and she finally turned to look at Su Chenghui and Wei Ting.

“Can you sit over there?”

“No.”

The two of them said at the same time. Wei Ting, in particular, moved closer to Li Qianxue. “Qianxue, I’ll sit with you.”

“Qianxue, you sit.” Su Chenghui’s reaction was much more mature than Wei Ting’s. Li Qianxue glanced at him and sat down on the sofa.

Once she sat down, Wei Ting and Su Chenghui sat down beside her at the same time, one on the left and one on the right, like two guardians.

The living room was very quiet, so quiet that everyone’s breathing could be heard clearly.

“Qianxue, are you thirsty?” Wei Ting looked at the teapot on the coffee table and poured a cup of tea very attentively. “Drink tea.”

Li Qianxue looked at the cup of tea. This seemed to be her home.

“Qianxue, it’s almost time to eat. Don’t drink tea, just eat some fruit.”

As Su Chenghui spoke, he picked up the fruit from the bowl and placed it in front of Li Qianxue. There were toothpicks stuck into the fruit.

..

What was going on? Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed, looked at each other.

Su Yuxin’s lips moved. It was a very ambiguous feeling to see the two men fawning over his mother.

“Qianxue, have some tea.”

“Qianxue, have some fruit.”

The two men, unwilling to give up, looked at each other. Su Chenghui looked at Wei Ting with an unfriendly gaze.

“Thank you, but I don’t want it.”

Li Qianxue felt a toothache. Forget about Wei Ting, he had always been childish.

But why was Su Chenghui joining in?

She couldn’t help but glare at Su Chenghui. How old was he? And he was still bickering with a child?

In the eyes of others, her gaze meant something else. Wei Ting was quite proud. Look, in Qianxue’s heart, she still preferred him, right?

Su Chenghui was a little uncomfortable. Wei Ting provoked him first, but Li Qianxue only glared at him?

The atmosphere was frozen again. Old Master Li looked at his daughter. Although Li Qianxue had reached such an age, there was still such outstanding men who liked her, so as an old father, he felt comforted.

But could these people pay attention to the fact that he was still here. Looking at this scene, he felt a bit bitter.

“Ahem. That’s enough, let’s eat first.”

“Yes, Mom, let’s eat first.”

Su Yuxin couldn’t help but speak. Forget about Su Chenghui. As for Wei Ting —

He thought that if Li Qianxue really chose Wei Ting, it would mean that he would have such a young stepfather. Why did he feel weird about it?

Su Qingsang didn’t say anything. She was the only one who was watching the show.
