Chapter 363: A Bizarre Thought
Huo Jinyao did not object to it. Xiang Caiping and Su Chenghui might have not finished their discussion, but it was better to return now and have a look.
If what Su Qingsang said earlier was true, the purpose of Su Chenghui’s visit today would be an intriguing one.
The previous thought that Su Chenghui was acting a little weird came up in Huo Jinyao’s mind once more.
What exactly was wrong about it? He thought. The vague thought he had just now surfaced again.
While Huo Jinyao was still pondering about it, Su Qingsang dragged him upstairs. Coincidentally, the door to their house opened right at this moment.
Su Chenghui stood by the door and Xiang Caiping was pus.h.i.+ng him out.
The moment Su Chenghui lifted his gaze and saw Su Qingsang’s face, he stopped short.
Next to him, Xiang Caiping, who was standing before the door, had a face as white as a sheet.
…
Su Chenghui had done something many years ago — something quite crazy. Something so crazy that pleased him when he thought about it, yet filled him with a fleeting sense of hesitation.
That year, he happened to have s.e.x with Li Qianxue. That had been completely unplanned.
He did not even like Li Qianxue at all. She was too fierce, too alpha, and she had an insufferably arrogant personality that was highly unlikeable.
He did not like her, he really did not. He had his long-time lover, Xiang Caiping.
After having s.e.x with Li Qianxue that day, he was filled with remorse and guilt. Hence, when he got home, he was extra nice to Xiang Caiping.
Of course, he needed to do this to remind himself who he was in love with and who he had intended to marry.
Who would have known that Li Qianxue would pregnant from that one time?
What sort of person was Li Qianxue? She was the heiress of the Li family, the marketing manager of Li Corporation. She had means and status.
The most important thing was, she had a father that doted on her and pampered her dearly due to the early demise of her mother.
The Lis and the Qius were the two biggest influential families in Lin City back then. They were family friends who went way back. Back then, half the companies in Lin City would follow wherever they would lead.
There was no need to mention other corporations. If he did not marry Li Qianxue, he knew that aside from losing his job, he might not be able to remain in Lin City.
He would really love to stand his ground, yet unfortunately, a bunch of things had happened back home at the same time. Thoroughly helpless, he agreed to marry Li Qianxue.
Although Su Chenghui had agreed to marry Li Qianxue, this was an extremely hard reality to accept for him.
He could marry Li Qianxue and spend a lifetime with her, but he simply could not swallow the unbearable feeling of being forced to marry someone and live under somebody else’s thumb.
He had to swallow it down nevertheless. The marriage was announced, and soon he and Li Qianxue officially became man and wife.
Not only that, but as Li Qianxue’s belly grew bigger and bigger, the Li Corporation had pa.s.sed him businesses that he was not responsible for in the past.
He knew that this was a form of compensation from Old Master Li himself. However, this was not something he wanted. He had ambition, and it was true that he aspired to stand out from the rest of his peers, but he did not want to depend on a woman.
Every day, he thought of ways to get his revenge on Li Qianxue. Divorce? No, he could not do that.
Should he act to sink the entire Li Corporation? He did not have the power to do so back then.
Kill Li Qianxue? No. He would never do anything criminal. nor anything that would directly attack the Li Corporation.
As for doing things like stealing the trade secrets of the company, he did not consider it at all. He desperately thirsted for revenge but he definitely did not want to get directly involved in it.
He was struggling with such thoughts every day. Especially after he heard that Xiang Caiping was pregnant, such thoughts grew like untamed weeds.
There was a huge gap between his background and Li Qianxue’s, and the difference between him and Old Master Li was so vast. How could he ever get his revenge?
