To My Dear Mr. Huo - Chapter 744
Chapter 744: How Could You Lie To Me
“We’re not boyfriend and girlfriend yet. Naturally, there is no such thing as a date. Li Qianxue looked at his stupid expression and couldn’t help but want to hit him. “So, what date did you mention?”
“…” Weren’t they boyfriend and girlfriend? Su Chenghui’s face instantly fell. “But you said –”
“I said I would give you a chance, but I didn’t say I would be your girlfriend.”
Li Qianxue felt that it was really weird for her to say the words ‘girlfriend’.
Su Chenghui’s face fell because of Li Qianxue’s words. He looked at her and his mouth moved. In the end, he didn’t give up.
“Even if you’re not my girlfriend, it’s your birthday today. As a friend, I can celebrate it with you, right?”
This excuse was not bad. Su Chenghui could not help but add, “We are friends. Can’t I help you celebrate your birthday?”
He looked at the time. It was still too early for lunch. Without waiting for Li Qianxue’s response, he directly started the car and left.
When Li Qianxue stood at the door of Su Chenghui’s house, she stood there and took a step back. She did not intend to go forward.
“Su Chenghui?”
“Come in.” Su Chenghui opened the door and let Li Qianxue in. Li Qianxue stood at the door but did not move.
“Su Chenghui, don’t push your luck. I only said that I would give you a chance, but I didn’t agree to get back together with you.”
“I know.” Su Chenghui looked at Li Qianxue, who stood at the door, and refused to enter. He raised his hand and looked at her helplessly. “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you. I just want to treat you to a meal.”
Li Qianxue looked at him, and Su Chenghui took a step back. “I’ve asked Qiao Ran to buy groceries just now. He has the key to my apartment. Don’t worry, I really just want to have a meal with you.”
He would cook the meal.
Li Qianxue stared at his face for a while, but in the end, she still entered the door.
Su Chenghui was satisfied. He let Li Qianxue enter the door, and he quickly went to the kitchen. When he came out, he had a cup of fruit juice in his hand.
“Sit for a while. I’ll be quick.”
Li Qianxue took the glass of fruit juice and sat down on the sofa.
Seeing that Su Chenghui had returned to the kitchen, she first called home to tell them that she wouldn’t be going back for lunch. Then, she got up and looked around the house.
Everything was cleaned up very well. Su Chenghui was a little obsessed with cleanliness. He didn’t like others touching his things. It could be seen that after the divorce, he had learned to take care of himself.
Outside the balcony, the scenery here was pretty good. He had put her heart and soul into this house.
She walked around the house before going to the kitchen. She found Su Chenghui, extremely focused on cooking, standing by the kitchen counter.
He wasn’t only good at posing. She had tasted his noodles the last time, and it was indeed delicious. She didn’t expect that Su Chenghui would cook for her one day.
Thinking about it seriously, she didn’t hate this romantically ambiguous feeling.
She had grown up with a silver spoon in her mouth since she was young. Despite her mother’s early death, Old Master Li had doted on her to the extreme. The people around her had been trying to please her since she started school, whether it was her classmates or friends from the upper class who had been in contact with the Li family.
That was why when Su Chenghui didn’t take her seriously, she became motivated and wanted to win this man over.
She still remembered the first time when he confronted her in the conference room. At that time, he did not think of her as a woman at all. Instead, he thought of himself as a man, an ordinary colleague who he reasoned with.
Because of him, she was particularly concerned about that case.
In fact, it proved that some of his thoughts were right, and some of his thoughts were wrong, but he was not arrogant. After he found out that he was wrong, he calmly came to apologize to her.
Then, the two of them discussed how to deal with it. He was not a male chauvinist. He would not look down on her just because she was a woman.
On the contrary, every time the two of them communicated, there would always be a new spark.
The more time passed, the more obvious her feelings for him became. It was just that she didn’t expect Su Chenghui to have a girlfriend at that time.
“Hungry? I’ll scoop out the soup and then we can eat. You sit down first.”
Su Chenghui turned around and saw Li Qianxue standing at the kitchen door in a daze. He picked up the dishes on the cooking table and placed them on the dining table.
“You can sit down first.”
Only then did Li Qianxue realize that she had been watching Su Chenghui cook all this time. She felt a little uncomfortable and left the kitchen to sit down at the dining table.
Su Chenghui was very attentive. Without needing Li Qianxue to do anything, he immediately set up the bowls and chopsticks, then brought out the dishes.
“Have a bowl of soup.” When Su Chenghui served Li Qianxue the soup, he was still a little embarrassed. “I’m a little pressed for time. Next time, I’ll make health-preserving soup for you to drink.”
Li Qianxue was noncommittal. If she wanted to eat delicious food, she could just go back and ask Auntie Zhang to make it. She didn’t need to come here.
“It isn’t inconvenient for you because of your hand. How about I feed you?”
Noticing that Li Qianxue didn’t drink the soup, Su Chenghui suddenly thought of her hand injury. He reached out and was about to place the bowl in front of her.
“No need. I’m fine.”
Li Qianxue thought that she didn’t need him to take care of her that much. It was just that she couldn’t use too much strength with one hand.
“Qianxue.” Su Chenghui was very stubborn. He placed the soup in front of her and took the spoon. “I’ll feed you. The doctor said that you still have to take care of your hand.”
Li Qianxue didn’t have time to stop him. He was already acting like when they were in the hospital.
This time, she didn’t move and just obediently let him feed her.
Su Chenghui was very happy when he saw the bottom of the bowl of soup. He went to fill rice for her again. His overly attentive attitude touched Li Qianxue’s heart.
While Su Chenghui was feeding her, she unexpectedly said, “Let’s go to the movies in the afternoon.”
Su Chenghui’s expression was very interesting for a moment. He looked at Li Qianxue and suddenly smiled.
“Qianxue?”
“Let’s eat.” Li Qianxue did not look at his happy eyes. “After the movie, I still have to go home. I don’t want to have dinner just with you again.”
“Okay.”
Su Chenghui looked at her with a smile on his face. Today, he felt that he was too happy. It was like riding a roller coaster.
..
After eating, he rested for a while. The two of them really went to watch a movie.
Su Chenghui specially chose a romantic comedy. This kind of movie was the most suitable for relaxing. The plot was a little boring, but for Li Qianxue, this feeling was a little refreshing.
Halfway through, when the male and female lead kissed each other, she did not reject Su Chenghui’s hand.
Since she had decided, she would be tolerant and magnanimous. This was her principle.
Su Chenghui obviously did not expect to have such great progress today. He was extremely happy.
After they came out of the cinema, the smile in Su Chenghui’s eyes did not fade away. That expression looked a little silly to Li Qianxue.
She had never seen such a side to Su Chenghui before. Now that she thought about it, it actually wasn’t bad.
Su Chenghui sent Li Qianxue back. However, just as the car was about to enter the Li family’s villa, there were cars blocking the front of their car.
Su Chenghui was stunned. Before he could react, the person in the opposite car had already come down.
When Su Chenghui saw the person who came, Su Chenghui’s expression became a little unpleasant.
Wei Ting did not expect that today was Li Qianxue’s birthday. He came to look for Li Qianxue, but he came up empty-handed.
Old Master Li said that Li Qianxue wasn’t around, and her children also said that she wasn’t around.
Moreover, he also knew that Li Qianxue went out with Su Chenghui. Because of this, President Wei felt uncomfortable.
He originally wanted to leave, but he wasn’t willing to. He hadn’t seen Li Qianxue today. How could he leave just like that?
He didn’t expect that after waiting for a long time, Li Qianxue finally came back.
“Qianxue.” When Wei Ting got out of the car, Li Qianxue also saw him. After thinking for a while, she also got out of the car.
“President Wei?”
“Qianxue.” Of course, Wei Ting saw Su Chenghui in the car, and he also didn’t miss the completely different expression on Li Qianxue’s face. “You…”
“Happy birthday.” He felt uncomfortable, but he still gave the gift he prepared to Li Qianxue.
“Thank you.” Li Qianxue received the gift, but her expression did not change much. However, Wei Ting was sensitive to the fact that Li Qianxue was really different.
“Qianxue, you, are you going to get back together with Su Chenghui?”
As he spoke, he pointed at Su Chenghui. Li Qianxue looked at his reaction. In fact, she did not want to hurt Wei Ting. After all, he was a good person. “Wei Ting, this doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, right?”
“Of course it does.” Wei Ting was furious. “I’m pursuing you. How can you get back together with him?”
“Wei Ting.” What kind of logic was this? Li Qianxue had a headache. “You seem to have misunderstood. Whether I get back together with Su Chenghui or not, it’s all my business.”
“I know it’s your business.” Wei Ting gritted his teeth. His eyes were full of unwillingness. “But, have you forgotten what he did to you in the past? Don’t forget how he hurt you in the past.”
As Wei Ting spoke, there was a hint of grievance in his tone. “I’ve never hurt you, and I’m also sincere towards you. Why did you choose him over me?”
It wasn’t that he was childish, nor was it that he was impulsive.
He just didn’t understand. “How am I worse than him? Tell me.”
He thought that his family background and his looks weren’t bad. His sincerity towards Li Qianxue wasn’t any less than Su Chenghui’s.
Especially since Su Chenghui had hurt Li Qianxue like that. But she would rather choose Su Chenghui than choose herself.
“Qianxue, are you really going to do this to me?”
“Wei Ting, I told you a long time ago that it’s impossible for us.”
Even without Su Chenghui, it was impossible. Li Qianxue would not accept a boy who was more than ten years younger than her.
“I know, but you also told me that it’s impossible for you and Su Chenghui to be together.”
Wei Ting really felt wronged. His tone could not help but carry some grievance. “Have you forgotten what you said? You once said that you would never forgive him. You said that you would never be together with him?”
He was like a child who could not get candy. His eyes were filled with a desire for her to comfort him. “How could you lie to me?”
