Chapter 742: Don’t Use Too Much Force

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Su Chenghui did not have much to do today, so he told Qiao Ran to cancel his social engagements for the next few days.

He left the company, but he was not in a hurry to go to the Li family. Instead, he was thinking of picking out a birthday present for Li Qianxue.

Li Qianxue’s birthday was coming up. Although her injuries had not healed yet, she had almost fully recovered. The cast on her hand could be removed in a few days. However, it was still a little inconvenient.

The sprain on her foot had basically healed, but she had to be careful and not use too much strength when walking.

Her body had almost recovered, so she could not sit still. She still wanted to work in the company. The cast had not been removed, so how could they agree?

Su Chenghui thought of Li Qianxue, and his heart felt a little warm. In fact, although she had been cold to him for the past few days, she had not been able to drive him out of her life.

First of all, both of her children were at home. With Li Qianxue’s personality, she really could not do anything to prevent her children from getting close to Su Chenghui.

Not to mention the others, Su Qingsang had been lacking fatherly love for so many years. Now that Su Chenghui wanted to make up for it, how could Li Qianxue stop him?

Since she could not stop him, everything was more smooth for Su Chenghui. That guy not only entered the house, but also took the opportunity to get close to her.

She had injured her limbs these few days, so how could she be a match for Su Chenghui?

Being carried up and down the stairs by him was nothing. She could only endure being taken advantage of by him from time to time.

What was even more unbearable was that he would kiss and touch her from time to time. It had seriously affected her mood.

Every time she saw Su Chenghui, her expression would be very ugly. However, she still could not refuse Su Chenghui.

Su Chenghui was obviously aware of her changes. He was very happy and was more and more attentive to her.

..

Su Chenghui had never personally picked a gift for Li Qianxue in the past twenty years, but he gave her a birthday present every year. After all, he and Li Qianxue were still trying to maintain the pretense of a harmonious marriage at that time.

But every time, he asked his secretary to pick a present. It was his first time picking a present himself.

Su Chenghui was not satisfied even after visiting several stores. In his opinion, these jewelry were too tacky now and were not worthy of Li Qianxue.

Li Qianxue was the president of the Li Corporation. What kind of jewelry had she not seen before? How could these tacky things match her?

Su Chenghui had such a thought. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find anything he was satisfied with. He was a little anxious. After thinking for a while, he made a trip to Gu Langxuan.

Gu Langxuan was Huo Jinyao’s childhood friend. Wan Xianyang’s family business usually only had branches in the north. Later, because Huo Jinyao came to Lin City to develop, Gu Langxuan also opened a few branches in the south.

There was one in Lin City. Su Chenghui went to Gu Langxuan and was quite lucky. He took a fancy to a set of jewelry. Although the material was ruby, the design was very elegant.

The most important thing was that this set of jewelry came from a prestigious family. It was one of a series designed by a royal designer in Belgium. He did not know how it ended up in China.

Su Chenghui bought the beloved jewelry. When he was about to go home, he saw a pair of jade pendants. Two pieces of jade, one dragon and one phoenix. Whether it was the carving skill or the quality of the jade, they were all top-notch.

Su Chenghui thought about it for a moment and bought the two pieces of jade together.

… ..

Li Qianxue’s birthday was half a month after when she had a car accident. In half a month, the cast on her hand had been removed.

It was too inconvenient to wear the cast. After consulting the doctor and knowing that the injury on her hand had recovered well, she did not want to wear the cast anymore.

Now, it was only wrapped around her neck with a bandage. Usually, she was careful not to touch it, not to use force, and just waited for her hand to recover.

Today was her birthday. In the past, on her birthday, she would hold a banquet at the Li family’s house and invite some of her good friends to come over for a gathering. However, her hand was injured this year, so she wanted to keep things simple. Li Qianxue canceled the banquet.

A few days ago, when Old Master Li asked her, she said that it would be enough for the family to have a meal together.

Li Qianxue woke up early in the morning. Just as she was getting dressed, Su Qingsang came knocking on the door.

“Come in.” Su Qingsang entered the door, but she was not alone. She and Su Yuxin held two children in each hand.

Her family’s Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian were full of energy. They woke up very early every day.

“Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian are here.” Li Qianxue’s heart melted when she saw her grandson and granddaughter. “Why are they up so early? They just got off the plane yesterday. Let the children sleep a little longer.”

The two little guys had never left the house before. This was the first time they had taken a plane to Lin City to celebrate Li Qianxue’s birthday.

Li Qianxue had been so worried before. Yesterday, she had checked the children from top to bottom.

“They woke up early.” Su Qingsang and Su Yuxin carried the children into the house. Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian video-chatted with Li Qianxue every day, so they were very close.

Now that they saw Li Qianxue, they wanted to reach out and let Li Qianxue carry them.

“Stop it.” Su Qingsang held her son’s hand and didn’t let him move. “Grandma is injured, so she can’t carry you.”

“Who said that it’s okay?” Li Qianxue wanted to reach out, but Su Qingsang stopped her. “Mom, don’t play around. Although your hand cast has gone, the doctor said that you have to take good care of it. Look at you, the bandage has been removed. You really…”

“Don’t worry, I won’t use too much force.”

“How can you not use force to carry the children?” Su Qingsang refused to let her carry the child no matter what. She glanced at Su Yuxin, and the two of them carried the child in front of Li Qianxue.

“Come, baby, say happy birthday to Grandma.”

The two children were only a few months old, so how could they talk? They just cried.

“Good, good.” Li Qianxue was already very satisfied. Looking at the two children, her heart softened.

“Mom.” Su Qingsang took out the gift she had prepared. “I wish you a happy birthday. You are getting younger and more beautiful.”

“You child.” Li Qianxue took the gift from her daughter. She was both gratified and touched. “You’re so polite to mom.”

For her, Su Qingsang’s willingness to let Huo Jinyao bring Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian to Lin City was the biggest gift.

“Mom, Happy Birthday.”

Su Yuxin followed and handed over the gift.

“Okay, okay.” Li Qianxue looked at her grandchildren and was no longer dissatisfied. Her gaze fell on Su Yuxin. “Yuxin, when you get married and have a child, mom will be satisfied with everything.”

Su Yuxin did not understand why the topic had jumped to this point. He was speechless. “Mom, I’m only nineteen this year. I’m only a freshman.”

“I know, there’s no rush. But if you look for a girlfriend now, I won’t object.”

Su Yuxin did not respond. Instead, he carried his niece outside and said, “Alright, I’ll bring Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian to look for brother-in-law.”

Huo Jinyao had arrived yesterday, but he had the habit of doing morning exercises every morning. So, he went to exercise early in the morning.

“See, he leave as soon as I mention in girlfriend.”

He was already dating in high school. Don’t think that she did not know that she would still pay attention to her son’s changes. Why did he become so pure-hearted after going to university?

Li Qianxue didn’t understand. Su Qingsang looked at the direction in which her brother had left and also didn’t understand. She knew that Su Yuxin had a girlfriend, but what was going on between him and that Bai Zhihan?

Maybe she could ask him later.

When Li Qianxue went downstairs, Auntie Zhang had prepared noodles for her, like how she did for decades.

When the whole family was having a good time, Su Chenghui arrived.

When she saw Su Chenghui, Li Qianxue’s expression was uncomfortable for a moment, but it was only for a moment.

During this period of time, Su Chenghui had almost become a regular guest of the Li family, except that he didn’t live here. He would appear on time every morning and evening.

Su Chenghui entered the door and greeted Old Master Li and the others before looking at Li Qianxue.

“Qianxue, happy birthday.”

As he spoke, he pushed the box in his hand in front of Li Qianxue. His eyes were filled with anticipation.

Li Qianxue looked at the box. She did not reach out to take it, nor did she have the intention to pick it up and look at it.

“Qianxue, happy birthday,” Su Chenghui added. He did not mind being humiliated by Li Qianxue.

When he saw his grandchildren in Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang’s arms, he took out the pair of jade pendants in his hand.

“I happened to see this pair of jade pendants when I was buying gifts for your mother. I think they’re quite nice. Take them and give them to the two children to play with.”

Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao were in Rong City. Although he would occasionally visit the two children, they did not spend much time together after all. Su Chenghui was still very concerned about his two grandsons.

“Thank you, Dad.” Su Qingsang took the box and waved it in front of the two little babies.

“Look, you have gifts for Grandma’s birthday too. Are you two happy?”

Nian Nian took a look and was not interested. She was interested in looking at the box and wanted to grab it.

Li Qianxue looked at her grandson’s cute action, and the coldness on her face disappeared.

“Since you are here, let’s have a meal together,” Old Master Li said. He had seen Su Chenghui’s performance during this period of time. He really had mixed feelings about this ex-son-in-law.

After talking to Wei Ting the last time, he felt that Wei Ting was a good young man.

Although he was quite different from Li Qianxue in age, he was steady and thoughtful. He thought of all the problems. That was why he was relieved.

However, he didn’t expect Su Chenghui to be so attentive during this period of time. He also saw Li Qianxue’s thoughtfulness and care.

For a moment, Old Master Li’s heart softened. No matter what, he was the junior that he had raised by his side. Even if he had made a mistake, he had to give him a chance, right?

This time, his concession attracted his daughter’s angry glare. Old Master Li looked at Li Qianxue’s reaction and was actually a little helpless.

Li Qianxue might not have realized it herself. No matter how many years had passed, the only person who could make her so emotional was Su Chenghui.

Thinking back to the time, he spent so much effort to train Li Qianxue, whether it was her speech, mannerism, music, chess, calligraphy, or painting, common sense, or the company’s affairs.

She had always been calm and self-controlled. It was rare for her to lose control, but she met Su Chenghui. No matter how many years had passed, or how many things she had experienced, it could make her not be as calm as usual.

“Thank you, Dad.” After Su Chenghui received the support of Old Master Li, he quickly pulled out a chair to sit down.

Li Qianxue knew that she could not drive him away, but she did not show much resistance. After all, ever since she was injured, there had been too many situations like this.

Not to mention Old Master Li, even her son and daughter softened because of Su Chenghui’s actions.

Li Qianxue was a little irritated. She ate the bowl of noodles like chewing wax.

After breakfast, Su Chenghui looked at Li Qianxue’s expression and said very carefully, “Qianxue, the weather is good today. Why don’t we go out for a walk?”

“No.” Li Qianxue refused without thinking. “My foot injury hasn’t recovered. Why do you want to go?”

In fact, she had already recovered. It was okay to walk on the normal flat ground, but she wanted to say that on purpose.

“I can use the wheelchair to push you.”

“No need. I can walk on my own.” After Li Qianxue said that, she realized the inconsistency in her words. For a moment, she looked a little embarrassed.

Su Chenghui didn’t mind at all. “That’s okay. You can walk if you want to. If you don’t want to walk, I’ll push you. No matter what, I won’t let you be tired.”

“…” Li Qianxue looked at Su Chenghui. Why was he so shameless? He just felt that she had to go out with him, right?

Su Yuxin, on the other hand, exclaimed, “Mom, you removed the cast yesterday. Didn’t the doctor ask you to go for a follow-up check-up today? It just so happens that I’m going to the company. Let dad send you there.”

As he spoke, hoping that she would cooperate with him, he glanced at Su Qingsang.

Su Qingsang blinked her eyes. She originally didn’t want to get involved, but in the end, she couldn’t reject Su Yuxin. Moreover, she had just received Su Chenghui’s gift.

“That’s right. Mom, let Dad take you for a checkup and also visit uncle Xiao Zhao. Jinyao and I are planning to visit Wanwan and our colleagues at the hospital.”

“You two…” How could Li Qianxue not tell that the two children did it on purpose?

She felt stifled and couldn’t help but glare at Su Chenghui. It was all his fault. Now, he had bribed his daughter and son.

“Let’s go. We’ll go for a checkup.”

“We” sounded especially intimate. Li Qianxue could hear it. Her lips moved and she wanted to retort, but she held back in the end.

After going to the hospital for a checkup, they found out that Li Qianxue’s body recovered quite well. This was because she liked to exercise and paid attention to her health.

Her body’s condition was much better than that of other people her age. Apart from the injury on her hand, she also had to pay attention to it. Her foot injury had basically recovered.

After receiving the Doctor’s instructions, Li Qianxue went to see Xiao Zhao again. Xiao Zhao was out of danger. After this period of rest, she also recovered a lot.

The Li family weren’t harsh people. After Li Qianxue told Xiao Zhao to rest well. She left.

After leaving the hospital, Li Qianxue realized that Su Chenghui had been following her. She turned around and looked at him with a complicated gaze.

During this period of time, although she did not ask Su Chenghui to take care of her, it was not like she did not feel anything.

However, it was precisely because she felt something that her heart ached even more.

This kind of emotion was very complicated. It was like a person who had always wanted something, and one day, when she suddenly got it, she doubted the authenticity of what she had gotten.

Su Chenghui’s current actions were completely beyond Li Qianxue’s expectations. She didn’t know what to do at the moment.
