Su Chenghui? Why was he here? How much did he hear?
Li Qianxue instinctively frowned, but she stood there motionlessly.
Su Chenghui had already booked a flight back to Lin City in the afternoon. He knew that Li Qianxue wouldn’t be back so soon. After thinking about it, he decided to come and look for Li Qianxue before he left.
Although after yesterday’s incident, he knew how much Li Qianxue disliked him now.
But he couldn’t help but want to see her again. Even if he didn’t say anything, he just wanted to see her.
But Su Chenghui never expected that he would actually see such a scene when he came. Li Qianxue actually had a new suitor, and it was a suitor who was only a few years older than her daughter.
In fact, over the years, many men in the business world had expressed their admiration for Li Qianxue, but she was already married at that time.
Now, Li Qianxue had divorced him. For the first time, Su Chenghui realized that as long as Li Qianxue wanted to, there was a high possibility that she could end her bachelorhood at any time.
This feeling really wasn’t good. He had the feeling that Li Qianxue was getting further and further away from him, and it was getting harder and harder to get back together with her.
The moment Li Qianxue saw Su Chenghui, Wei Ting naturally saw him too.
As Li Qianxue’s suitor, he naturally had a clear understanding of Li Qianxue’s situation.
He had seen Su Chenghui before. As a technology upstart, even if he didn’t know much about the upper-class society of Lin City in the past, if he really wanted to, there was nothing he couldn’t get to the bottom of.
Moreover, Li Qianxue had previously reported that she had severed her mother-daughter relationship with Su Peizhen. Wei Ting could easily find out just by doing some investigation.
No matter what the process of Li Qianxue and Su Chenghui’s past marriage of more than 20 years was, they were already divorced.
Wei Ting moved in Li Qianxue’s direction discreetly. With one step, two steps, and three steps, he quickly stood beside Li Qianxue.
Su Qingsang stared at the scene in front of her with her eyes wide open. She couldn’t help but look at Huo Jinyao again. Indicating for her to wait and see, Huo Jinyao squeezed her hand.
Su Chenghui had originally come to look for Li Qianxue, but now, he didn’t know what else he could say.
Li Qianxue’s stance was already made very clear yesterday. No matter how much he said, it couldn’t change the fact that their hearts had become estranged over the past 26 years.
No, their hearts had never even been together.
He looked at the young man who had courageously courted her. He was younger and braver than he was.
He was willing to pursue her all the way to Rong City and openly expressed his feelings. In this regard, he was inferior to him.
Su Chenghui was originally very confident. He believed that as long as he persevered and let Li Qianxue understand his true feelings, sooner or later, she would be moved by him and forgive him.
Now, he was suddenly a little uncertain. Could it be that before he could ask Li Qianxue to forgive him, she was already with someone else?
It was mid-autumn, and at noon, the temperature in Rong City wasn’t low. Su Qingsang was already pregnant. After standing for a while, she felt extremely hot.
“Dad, why are you here?”
Li Qianxue didn’t speak, so she could only speak first.
“I, came to see you.” Su Chenghui said this, but his gaze fell on Li Qianxue.
“I booked a flight for this afternoon. I came to see you before I leave.”
“Is that so? Then do you want to go up and sit for a while?”
Su Qingsang wasn’t helping Su Chenghui, but she didn’t like Wei Ting, the man who suddenly appeared out of the blue.
She didn’t approve of Wei Ting locating Li Qianxue’s phone.
“No.” Su Chenghui clearly saw that Li Qianxue’s facial expression had changed because of Su Qingsang’s words. She didn’t welcome him. Why should he continue to stay?
“I just came to see you. I will leave after seeing you.”
It wasn’t that Li Qianxue didn’t sense that Wei Ting was standing next to her. She resisted the urge to step aside and simply let Wei Ting stand next to her.
She saw the sadness in Su Chenghui’s eyes, and she indeed felt a burst of pleasure, but this kind of emotion came and went quickly.
Since Su Chenghui had nothing to do with her, why should she care about his feelings?
Whether he was good or bad, it had nothing to do with her. Using another man to make Su Chenghui suffer was gratifying to her, but she disdained doing something like that.
So after Su Chenghui turned around, she also took a step to the side.
Wei Ting quickly turned around and stood in front of her. “Qianxue, did you just come back from shopping? Are you tired? Have you eaten? Why don’t we go eat together?”
The series of questions with concern made Su Chenghui pause in his steps.
He resisted the urge to turn his head back, and slowly walked out of the community. He needed time to think about what he should do next.
Li Qianxue took a big step back and pulled Wei Ting one meter away from her.
“Wei Ting, I’ve eaten already. Sorry, but you can eat by yourself.”
She could have agreed to eat with Wei Ting so that she could give Su Chenghui a blow. However, she really didn’t want to do that.
Wei Ting’s face immediately darkened. He looked at Li Qianxue with a rather sorrowful expression.
“Qianxue, I came all the way here to look for you, and you’re not even willing to have a meal with me?”
“I’ve already eaten.”
“Then can you accompany me while I eat?”
“Sorry, I have to accompany my daughter and son-in-law for dinner.”
“Then, we can all go together.” As Wei Ting spoke, he looked in Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao’s direction. “I believe that your daughter and son-in-law won’t mind, right?”
Su Qingsang frowned. When she met Li Qianxue’s eyes, she shook her head without giving him face.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Wei, I mind.”
Wei Ting didn’t expect Su Qingsang to be so blunt.
Su Qingsang didn’t look at him at all. She only looked at Huo Jinyao and Li Qianxue.
“Jinyao, Mom, let’s go up. I’m so hot.”
“Qianxue.” Wei Ting was anxious. He walked up to Li Qianxue with a pitiful expression.
Unfortunately, Li Qianxue was unmoved. “I’m sorry, Mr. Wei. This is my private time. Please leave.”
“I won’t.” Wei Ting was very persistent, but Li Qianxue didn’t stand on ceremony with him. She waved his hand, and the security guard who had been waiting to watch the show finally had something to do.
He stepped forward to block Wei Ting’s way, so he could only watch as Li Qianxue and Su Qingsang left.
After they went upstairs, Su Qingsang asked Huo Jinyao to carry the things back to the room while she followed Li Qianxue with a gossipy look on her face.
“Mom, you’re with Mr. Wei?”
Li Qianxue looked at Su Qingsang and said helplessly, “Don’t talk nonsense. I have nothing to do with him.”
“Really? But he said he was going to pursue you.”
“Did you believe him?”
Li Qianxue was no longer an naive little girl. She would never believe Wei Ting’s words. “Maybe it’s because I didn’t give him face the first time we worked together. I don’t know why he decided to pursue me.”
“That means that mom, you’re irresistibly attractive.”
Su Qingsang’s eyes were full of teasing. “Okay, let’s not talk about him. I have nothing to do with him anyway.”
“Mom, I think that he actually might be sincere. You can actually consider him before making a decision.”
“How?” Li Qianxue didn’t have the mood at all. Even if she had the mood, it wouldn’t be towards Wei Ting.
“Do you know how old he is this year? I’m almost twenty years older than him. Tell me, what does he love about me?”
“My mother is so good that no matter where she is, she’s worthy of being loved.”
“You’re just flattering me.” Although Li Qianxue said this, she was in a good mood.
As for Wei Ting, she really didn’t think that there was any possibility between the two of them.
For the rest of the time, Li Qianxue continued to accompany Su Qingsang. When Su Qingsang went to work, Li Qianxue would use the computer at home to handle some business.
When Su Qingsang wasn’t at work, she would try her best to improve her relationship with her. There were a few times when she even dragged Su Qingsang to sleep together.
However, when she went out with Su Qingsang, she would always run into Wei Ting seemingly by chance, but it was more like an opportunity that he deliberately created.
Li Qianxue didn’t like Wei Ting and thought that it was impossible for her to be with him. However, she couldn’t force him out.
After all, the two corporations were still tied. This caused her to be embarrassed every time she saw Wei Ting appear in front of her with a cheeky smile.
However, Wei Ting seemed to insist on crossing her. The more she didn’t give him face, the more he liked to stick to her.
Su Qingsang could tell now after the past few days. If one were to say that Wei Ting just wanted to have some fun, it didn’t quite seem like it.
However, all of this was up to Li Qianxue. Su Qingsang didn’t meddle in or give any advice. She believed that Li Qianxue could handle this.
Ten days later, Old Master Li returned to Lin City. Li Qianxue also decided to go back. Although Su Qingsang was reluctant, she had to accept reality.
At Rong City Airport, Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao sent Li Qianxue back to Lin City.
Li Qianxue was also reluctant, but there were two contracts waiting for her to negotiate in Lin City. If she really wanted to relax, she could only wait for Su Yuxin to graduate and come back to lighten her burden.
“Qingsang, you must take good care of yourself.”
“I know.”
Her eyes a little warm, Su Qingsang nodded. “Mom, I don’t want you to go.”
“Silly girl.” Trying to suppress the urge to cry, Li Qianxue blinked her eyes. “You’re about to become a mother. You can’t act like a child anymore. You’re pregnant now. Remember to take good care of yourself.”
“I will. Besides, there’s still Huo Jinyao.”
“Mom, don’t worry. I’ll definitely take good care of Qingsang.”
“If you don’t take good care of her, I won’t let you off the hook.”
Li Qianxue glared at Huo Jinyao threateningly. When she looked at Su Qingsang again, she held her hand and was about to say a few more words when from the corner of her eye, she saw Wei Ting slowly getting close behind Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao.
Why was he here again? He was really haunting her.
Li Qianxue’s brows were knitted tightly together as she watched Wei Ting walk up to her.
“Hi, Qianxue, what a coincidence.” After he finished greeting Li Qianxue, he greeted Su Qingsang and her husband.
He should at least try to curry favor with his future daughter and son-in-law. Attitude was still very important.
Li Qianxue didn’t believe that there was such a coincidence. “Wei Ting, did you locate my phone again?”
“Qianxue, you really wronged me. This time, I really didn’t locate your phone.”
He had only used his connections and checked the airline’s flight records. After all, he didn’t really believe that Li Qianxue would stay here forever.
Since she had to go back sooner or later, she naturally needed to book a plane ticket.
Look at how smart he was?
“I just happen to be going back to Lin City. Look, aren’t we fated?”
“I don’t think so.” Li Qianxue wasn’t a young and naive girl. She was sure that Wei Ting must have done something. “If you want to go back to Lin City, go ahead. I’m not going back.”
“Then where are you going, Qianxue?”
“Do I need to report where I’m going to you?”
“Of course not.” Wei Ting quickly waved his hand and looked at Li Qianxue with a very eager gaze. “I just think that no matter where you go, I also want to go with you. You can treat me as one of your luggage.”
“I don’t have such a big luggage.”
“Qianxue?”
“Mr. Wei, please excuse me, I’m boarding the plane.”
“It’s okay, I’ll go with you.” Wei Ting relied on his experience that the thicker his skin was, the easier it was to woo a girl.
Li Qianxue’s brows were tightly knitted. “Who wants to go with you? I told you, I’m not going back to Lin City.”
“That’s great, I can change my visa. I’m going to follow you no matter what, so we’ll just take it as getting used to taking trips together in advance.”
After Wei Ting finished speaking, he added, “Honeymoon trip.”
“Wei Ting.” Li Qianxue was in a hurry to get rid of Wei Ting and left without even saying goodbye to Su Qingsang. “If you continue to spout nonsense, I won’t stand on ceremony with you.”
The two of them disappeared from the boarding gate. Her eyes filled with shock, Su Qingsang turned to look at Huo Jinyao.
Why did she feel that something wasn’t right?
“Jinyao, what do you think of Wei Ting?”
“It’s hard to say for now. He seems decent, and he has no major problems in other aspects.”
Huo Jinyao began to talk about the information he had found out. “He’s considered a tech upstart. He studied abroad in his early years and developed an app with a friend. The game app sold for a good price. Then, he used the money to start his own company with his friend. They collaborated with the Li Group this time to install internal software on all the computers in your mother’s company. That’s how they got to know each other.”
“Is that so?” These were all work-related matters. Su Qingsang was most concerned about his personal character, conduct, and, most importantly, his relationship history.
“I haven’t found anything yet.” Besides what he had just said, Huo Jinyao didn’t have much information on Wei Ting at the moment.
“I only know that he didn’t seem to have a girlfriend when he was in Silicon Valley. His friends said that he kept himself to himself and that he was very prudish.”
“That good?” This Wei Ting didn’t look young, did he? He had never had a girlfriend before? That didn’t make sense.
“Yeah.” Huo Jinyao nodded. “At least according to the information. If we go any further, we still need time to find out his identity and history. If you’re worried, I’ll get Yang Wenchang to tell you the results in two days.”
Su Qingsang shook her head. “There’s no rush. There’s no sign of anything happening yet. Besides, I believe in my mother’s judgment.”
“You believe in your mother’s taste?” His eyes incredulous, Huo Jinyao raised an eyebrow. “Based on her taste in your father?”
“Huo Jinyao...” Su Qingsang raised her hand to pinch Huo Jinyao’s arm, but Huo Jinyao wrapped her hand in his palm.
“Alright, let’s not worry about your mother’s relationship for now. I remember something Wei Ting said just now.”
“What?”
“We’ve been married for more than a year, but we haven’t gone on our honeymoon yet.”
Su Qingsang blinked. “Don’t tell me you’re thinking of taking me on our honeymoon now?”
“Can’t I?”
Su Qingsang looked down at her belly, which had grown a little bigger than two days ago. “Now? At this time? Are you sure?”
“Didn’t you always say that you’re in good health and have no problems at all?” Huo Jinyao felt that this suggestion was feasible. “If you’re willing, I can take you out for a few days.”
“Where to?” Su Qingsang’s interest was piqued by Huo Jinyao’s suggestion.
“Where do you want to go?”
Su Qingsang blinked and said, “Why don’t we drive? A long flight might affect the fetus. If you want to go on a trip in the country, it’s still possible. It’s best to choose the type that doesn’t require too long of a driving time.”
Su Qingsang was just saying it casually, but she didn’t expect Huo Jinyao to actually arrange it. When they arrived the next Saturday, Huo Jinyao brought her to the new RV he bought.
The space behind the RV was very large. It was very comfortable. Su Qingsang sat inside and felt like she was on a level road.
She looked away from the window and looked at Huo Jinyao. “When did you buy this car? Don’t tell me you bought it just to take me out?”
“Can’t I?” He could never spoil his woman too much. Even if she wanted a yacht or a plane, he would satisfy her, let alone a car.
“It’s a bit wasteful.” Su Qingsang looked at the luxurious furnishings in the RV. “I’ve only seen this on TV.”
“It’s okay. If you like it, I’ll buy ten or eight, and paint them in different colors. Then, you can drive one to each place and take turns like a rainbow.”
“Enough.” If he continued to be like this, he would really spoil her.
Su Qingsang yawned and looked at the bed on the RV. “How much longer will it take?”
“About three hours. Sleep for a while. I’ll call you when we get there.”
“What about you?”
“I’ll watch over you.”
Su Qingsang smiled at his words and leaned over to kiss him on the corner of his lips. Only then did she go to bed and lie down.
She fell asleep, and Huo Jinyao took out his laptop and began to deal with his work.
Three hours later, Su Qingsang woke up after some good rest. When she woke up, she found Huo Jinyao sitting by the bed looking at her.
“You’re awake? We just arrived.”
“We’re here?” Su Qingsang sat up and looked out of the car window, only to find that she could see nothing but a white wall.
“Stop looking. Get out of the car. This is the parking lot.”
Su Qingsang nodded. “Wait for me then. I’ll change and tidy up.”
“Okay.”
Huo Jinyao waited for Su Qingsang to get out of the car. Only then did Su Qingsang realize that they were in front of a three-story villa. There were many flowers of various colors planted in the yard at the entrance, and it looked quite beautiful and exquisite.
She turned around and was about to speak to Huo Jinyao when she saw a car passing by on the road outside the villa. The car window that wasn’t closed allowed her to see the person sitting inside.
Su Qingsang’s eyes widened. Wasn’t that person —
