Li Qianxue just stood at the door of the hospital, looking at Su Chenghui intently. He didn't leave or speak.
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui looked at her worriedly: "Are you okay? Does it hurt again? Do you want to go in and see the doctor again?"
The worry on his face was so obvious, Li Qianxue lowered her head and remained silent.
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui was even more worried. He rarely saw Li Qianxue like this: "What's wrong with you? Tell me?"
Li Qianxue pursed her lips tightly. She looked down at her toes, and finally raised her head suddenly to look at Su Chenghui.
"Su Chenghui, can you-" stay away from me? The next five words came out and turned into: "Tell me, what do you want?"
Su Chenghui was stunned for a moment. Facing Li Qianxue's unpredictable face, he took a step forward.
"I want to make up for it, I want a chance to be by your side."
He didn't even dare to say something like starting over, and he couldn't say it out loud. Because he knew he would be rejected by Li Qianxue.
Li Qianxue naturally understood. Now Su Chenghui's expectations are really very low.
She turned her face and looked at the hospital gate. At this time, an ambulance happened to drive into the gate. She looked at the roaring ambulance and moved a few steps to the side.
The ambulance stopped and a man covered in blood got out. Emergency personnel rushed out, lifted the person on the stretcher onto the bed, and quickly went inside to rescue him.
The hospital is a place where we witness life, old age, illness and death every day. Looking at the people coming and going, Li Qianxue seemed to have figured something out. I also want to understand some things.
She took a few steps outside. Su Chenghui didn't know what she wanted to do, so he kept following her. Looking at her figure, he wanted to speak several times, but was afraid of upsetting Li Qianxue.
"Su Chenghui." Li Qianxue, who walked out of the hospital and stood next to Su Chenghui's car, suddenly stopped.
She didn't look at him, but continued to stare at the traffic on the road: "You said you wanted to make up for it. You said you wanted a chance to be by my side?"
"yes."
"But let me tell you, if I don't need your compensation, I don't want to see you by my side. What do you want?"
"..." Silence, Su Chenghui, who had already known the result, was not surprised at all. If Li Qianxue could forgive him so easily, then her name would not be Li Qianxue.
"Or, if I choose to be with another man, what will you do?"
Su Chenghui's pupils shrank suddenly. He looked at Li Qianxue's back and felt a bitter taste in his mouth: "I..."
"I'm no longer young." Li Qianxue knew clearly, no matter how well she took care of herself. She has become a grandmother and now has an old heart.
"I don't have any energy anymore."
She turned around and looked at Su Chenghui, her eyes a little uncertain, but only for a moment, and soon her expression became extremely firm.
"Su Chenghui. Do you know? You have consumed all my passion. All my ability to love. I can no longer love."
Su Chenghui's throat seemed to be choked. Of course he knew. He knew everything Li Qianxue said.
"Right..."
"Don't say you're sorry." Li Qianxue didn't want to hear these three words now. She raised her hand, tilted her head half-way, and stared intently at Su Chenghui's face.
"I don't need your apology, it's useless."
Li Qianxue's eyebrows frowned slightly, which was her expression when she was thinking. She didn't speak, and Su Chenghui didn't know what to say.
Apart from apologizing and making amends, he seemed to be unable to do anything.
"Qianxue?"
"Do you love me?"
The extremely abrupt question made Su Chenghui think there was something wrong with his ears: "I, I love you."
Li Qianxue was not surprised, more than a year had passed. She has heard Su Chenghui's confession more than once. Even sometimes he doesn't directly say the three words "I love you".
"But I don't really believe it."
"Qianxue, I really-"
Interrupting his eager confession, Li Qianxue has always had a cheerful personality. Once she makes a decision on some things, she will never regret it, let alone look back.
"Su Chenghui, if, I mean if, I will never love you again, wouldn't you mind?"
"I..." Su Chenghui didn't understand what Li Qianxue meant.
"You said you wanted to make it up to me, you said you loved me, you said you just wanted a chance to be with me. Then I ask you, Su Chenghui. If I never love you in this life, no matter what you do, I will only hate you all the time. Don’t you mind? Do you still want to stay with me? "
After more than twenty years of hurt, the pain of replacing her daughter and the inability to recognize her, Li Qianxue felt that she could not change things easily.
"Yes." This time, Su Chenghui's voice was much firmer: "No matter what, I will always be with you."
Li Qianxue was silent again. She lowered her head and saw the shadow cast by the sun on her body.
Her behavior today was obviously not right. Su Chenghui had no idea what she meant and stood there uneasily.
"good."
After a long time, I heard Li Qianxue say a good word.
"Okay?" What's good
Li Qianxue looked up at him, seeming to have made up her mind.
"I agree to give you a chance."
"Qianxue?" At this moment, Su Chenghui really thought that he was hallucinating. How can it be
Li Qianxue said the first word, and the rest became much easier.
"I agree with what you just said. If you want a chance, I'll give it to you. But, it's only for one year."
"What?" There were too many surprises today, and Su Chenghui had no time to digest them. He just feels full of unreality now.
"I said I would give you one year. If in this year you can make me change my mind and believe in your sincerity, I will promise you to be with you."
"Qianxue?" Su Chenghui was completely stunned by the sudden huge surprise: "You, are you telling the truth?"
"You only have one year." Li Qianxue has actually confirmed something after these days.
She could never be indifferent to Su Chenghui, she would always have a different emotion for him.
After all, I have loved him for so many years and it has penetrated deep into my bones. It’s really not something that can be erased in a day or two.
But she couldn't forget the hurt he had caused her or what he had done.
She is conflicted. Now, she wanted to give him a chance and give herself a chance.
Relationships can be cultivated again, but the damage will always be there. She gave herself a year. If one year later, she could really let go of those hurts slowly and forget them. Then she wouldn't mind being with Su Chenghui again.
But if a year later, he still gives her the same feeling as now, leaving her in a dilemma, then she can only decisively cut off contact with Su Chenghui.
If she makes up her mind, not even Su Chenghui can stop her.
Su Chenghui couldn't help but stepped forward and hugged her. He avoided her injured hand and trapped her tightly in his arms.
"Qianxue. I believe in me. I will work hard. I will definitely work hard. I promise I will persevere. Not only this year, but also for many years to come."
He thought that he would never have a chance in this life, and he also thought that maybe one day many years later, Li Qianxue would let go, but he did not expect that this day would come so quickly.
"Qianxue. Thank you. Thank you very much."
Even if she hasn't agreed yet, even if there's still a year left, it's enough for Su Chenghui.
He will definitely try to make her accept him again.
"Don't thank me." Li Qianxue was still not used to his approach, so she pushed him away and took a step back.
"I didn't forgive you, and I didn't accept you. I just gave you time. One year, if you can't do it, then you have to promise that you will never appear in front of me."
"Qianxue?"
"If you don't agree, then the proposal I just made will be invalid. I will hire a professional manager and then travel around the world so that you can't find me. Su Chenghui, don't doubt my ability, I can do it."
As the president of the Li family, of course she can do it. Su Chenghui knew. However, he thought she would at least worry about Mr. Li and his two children.
"I have ties, but I also want to live for myself." As if she knew what he was thinking, Li Qianxue didn't mind telling her plans.
Su Chenghui understood what she meant, Li Qianxue was such a person.
"How about it? Do you agree?" Meeting her provocative gaze, he nodded heavily.
"I promise. One year. Just one year. If I can't make you change your mind in one year, I promise not to pester you again."
"Wrong. It's not that you won't pester me, but that you are never allowed to appear in front of me."
Su Chenghui looked at Li Qianxue's delicate features and nodded heavily in agreement.
After Li Qianxue agreed, she felt her back suddenly relax. It was as if something suddenly dropped.
One year, just one year. No matter what, let her enjoy Su Chenghui's efforts for now.
In the past years, she had been the one who had been giving, and it was she who had worked unilaterally for the relationship between the two of them.
Now that she is tired, the roles are reversed and Su Chenghui is left to worry.
… …
After getting in the car, Su Chenghui had not yet recovered from that mood. He was like a young boy who didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
"Qianxue, where are you going? Shall I see you off?"
Li Qianxue turned her face to look at him, with a look like a fool in her eyes: "Go home. I'm injured, where else can I go?"
"Yes, go home. Go home." Su Chenghui nodded, but when he was about to start the car, he couldn't help but stop and look at her: "Well, how about we go on a date?"
"Going to a movie? Or shopping?"
He didn't know what to do with a woman, so he was very clumsy for a while. He really hasn't dated a woman.
I don’t know if I can look it up online now and find out what normal boyfriends and girlfriends do on dates.
"Su Chenghui, you seem to have forgotten something?"
"What?"
