Chapter 584 Li Hezhou’s Thoughts
Li Hezhou's expression froze for a moment, but he soon laughed again and said, "It's okay, it's okay. You can tell me what you want to do. Maybe I can help."
Shen Qingqian really wanted to ask him something, but thinking about the current situation, she was reluctant to open her mouth.
Shen Qingning and others were not familiar with Li Hezhou, and of course no one responded to his words, so the scene was a little awkward for a moment.
It was Shen Shan who spoke up to break the awkwardness, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Li. We have already made arrangements."
Li Hezhou thought that he couldn't have dinner with them today, so he said with a cheeky smile, "Then enjoy your meal. You don't have to pay later. It's my treat."
"Then how can we make Mr. Li not have to do this?" Shen Shan declined, his brows already furrowed.
Seeing this, Li Hezhou was afraid of offending the Shen family, so he had to give up and stood up to say goodbye.
But before he left, he couldn't help but look at Shen Qingman several times.
Shen Qingman kept his head down, holding the teacup absentmindedly, and did not see it.
She didn't look up until Li Hezhou left and the door of the private room closed.
"Second sister, are you okay?" Shen Qingxiao asked softly.
Shen Qingman was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head, "Of course it's okay."
She didn't take what Li Hezhou said to heart at all. It was impossible for the two of them to be together.
Shen Qingning quietly tugged at Shen Qingqian's arm and asked softly, "Sixth sister, was that Mr. Li just now..."
"Don't," Shen Qingqian immediately covered her mouth, "Don't say it, don't make things difficult for my second sister."
Anyone with a discerning eye could see what Li Hezhou was thinking, but some things couldn't be said openly.
In Dajin, Li Hezhou's identity meant that there was no possibility for him and Shen Qingman to be together.
Fortunately, at present, Shen Qingman is still very sober and does not care too much about Li Hezhou.
Shen Qingning nodded, not quite understanding, and immediately changed the subject, "Why haven't you served the food yet? I'm starving!"
"You're the only one who's greedy," Shen Qingman said jokingly, and then explained, "They're the busiest at this time, so the food won't be served as fast as usual. Please wait a little longer."
Shen Qingning lay on the table without any image, "I hope they can bring the food before I starve to death."
Her exaggerated appearance made Shen Qingqian and others laugh. Fortunately, thanks to Li Hezhou's instructions, the food in their private room was served quickly, and they had a very enjoyable meal.
Li Hezhou was the only one in his study at this time.
"Oh, why don't you believe me?" Li Hezhou sighed while holding a painting in his hand. The painting clearly showed Shen Qingman.
He placed the painting on the table and stroked the figure's temples. "I really don't mind your past, nor am I afraid of any future storms. I will not abandon you when disaster strikes."
No one knew that Li Hezhou had seen her on the day of Shen Qingman's wedding, and afterwards she was often seen appearing in public to manage the family business for the main branch of the Li family.
At that time, he only knew that he had special feelings for his cousin's wife, but he didn't understand what those feelings were.
When he learned that the Shen family had been confiscated and exiled, Li Hezhou hurriedly picked out a few valuable items, but when he arrived at the Shen family's house, it was deserted.
Later, his father asked him to learn to take over the family business and asked him to go out to inspect the industry. He chose northern Hubei without hesitation.
But after arriving in northern Hubei, he realized that it was not easy to find the Shen family because he could not look for them openly.
However, God seemed to be on his side. Shen Qingqian suddenly appeared in Yunzhongxian and the two sides had business dealings.
