Li Xiwu thought that after experiencing those dreams, she could already accept everything in the past. However, when she really found out about the past, she still found it difficult to calm down.
If not for these intermittent dreams and hearing her grandmotherâs words, Li
Xiwu might not have been moved much because her blank memories could not
affect any of her emotions.
However, with these intermittent dreams, after learning about these karma, her heart felt as if it had been weighed down by a thousand kilograms, and she almost couldnât breathe.
Guan Suling could see Li Xiwuâs sadness. âDarling, itâs all in the past. Live well by Grandmaâs side in the future.â
Li Xiwu turned around and hugged Guan Suling tightly. For the first time, she wailed, âGrandmaâ¦
Guan Sulings heart ached terribly. She put down the comb and patted Li XiWUâS back gently. âGood girl, Grandma is here. Grandma will always be with you.â
Li Xiwu cried for a long time. She couldnât stop crying.
Guan Suling regretted it. She should not have told her darling so much about the past, but she could not bear to keep it from her. She was clearly thinking about not telling her in a hurry yesterday.
However, if her darling really remembered it herself, she would be in so much pain. Now, at least let her know about these things first. When she really remembered everything one day, she might be able to let go of it and not continue to suffer.
It was almost dawn. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It was midwinter, and there was a layer of frost on the glass. It was blurry, and she could not see the first rays of morning light shining on the glass.
Guan Suling tied her hair up and pinned an emerald green hairpin on it.
This hairpin belonged to Guan Suling. She had used this hairpin yesterday. Now, she was putting it on Li Xiwu. Guan Suling looked at it left and right. The more she looked at it, the more satisfied she was. âIt really suits you.â
Li Xiwu said, âIâm going to look in the mirror.â
With that, she got up and went to the washroom.
Buzz buzz buzzâ
Not long after Li Xiwu entered the bathroom, the phone on the cabinet vibrated. Guan Suling took the comb and placed it on the cabinet. She looked at the caller ID on the phone.
It was from Pei Jingzhou.
Guan Suling sighed softly.
In the washroom, Li Xiwuâs face was reflected in the mirror. She had not eaten anything since yesterday afternoon and night. Now that she was hungry, her face was still pale.
The white gauze on her forehead was especially eye-catching. It made her look like sheâs going to be blown to the ground by the wind if she walked out like this.
The injury this time looked the same as last time, as if it was in the same position.
Upon closer inspection, she realized that it wasnât. The last time, the wound was in her hairline. This time, it was on the outside. She didnât know the exact condition of the wound. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed. She wiped her tears and turned to leave.
As soon as she came out of the washroom, Li Xiwu heard the buzzing sound. She walked over. âGrandma, is that my cell phone?â
Guan Suling picked up her phone and handed it to Li Xiwu. âThat kid surnamed Pei called you.â
Li Xiwu took the cell phone and saw the caller ID on the screen. Just as she was about to pick it up, the call was hung up.
She froze.
Beside her, Guan Suling told her, âThis is the second call. Itâs been ringing for a long time, but I didnât pick up. It stopped ringing when I passed it to you.â
Li Xiwu nodded and sniffed to calm herself down. She turned around and walked to the window to call Pei Jingzhou.
Guan Suling pulled her back. âLie down or sit down. Donât stand. What if you fall down because youâre dizzy? Grandma wonât disturb your call.â
Li Xiwu listened to Guan Suling and nodded. Then, she sat obediently by the bed. She was about to call bac when Pei Jingzhou called again.
Li Xiwu picked up the call and placed the phone to her ear. âFourth Brother.â
On the other end of the line, Pei Jingzhouâs voice was calm. âHoney.â
Li Xiwu replied softly, âMm.â
Pei Jingzhou asked her, âWhere are you?
Li Xiwu said, âAt Grandmaâs house.â
She knew that she could not hide it, so she should let Pei Jingzhou know.
Anyway, there were still two to three hours. When the police announced what Qi Zishen had done yesterday, Pei Jingzhou would know immediately.
Because Pei Jingzhou loved her and cared about her, she was afraid to see Pei Jingzhou lose control because of his anger.
âLi Xiwu.â
After a long time, Pei Jingzhou called her name. Li Xiwu came back to her senses. âYes.â
Pei Jingzhou said, âIâve been to the MO Residence. Youâre not there.â
Li Xiwu was stunned.
Pei Jingzhou said in a low voice, âTell me, where are you?
Although Guan Suling did not have heavenly abilities, if she wanted to hide Li Xiwuâs whereabouts, Pei Jingzhou would not be able to find out. Furthermore, there was indeed nothing unusual between yesterday afternoon and last night. But Pei Jingzhou was certain that Li Xiwu was not in the MO Residence.
Li Xiwu took a deep breath and steadied her breathing. She chatted with him, âFourth Brother, what will you do if I betray you one day?â
Pei Jingzhou knew that she was changing the topic. âRelationship or betrayal of money?
Li Xiwuâs voice became lighter. âWhat if itâs both?â
Pei Jingzhou said, âThe money is all yours. Iâm also yours. You can ruin me however you want. Just donât abandon me.â
Li Xiwuâs gloomy mood improved slightly because of Pei Jingzhouâs words.
Pei Jingzhou quickly changed the topic. âWhere are you?
Li Xiwu pursed her lips and said in a low voice, âHospital.â
The other end of the line went silent.
Li Xiwu hurriedly said, âItâs just a fall. Itâs nothing serious. I can jump, skip, eat, and drink. I can also tell Fourth Brother that I love you.â
In the end, she chose to tell him the truth because she could not bear to hide it from him anymore.
Pei Jingzhou asked softly, âWhich hospital?â Li Xiwu told him the name of the hospital. Before the call ended, Pei Jingzhou said, âI love you too.â
Li Xiwu felt as if she had been hit in the heart. Not only did it not hurt, but it also made her fall. When she put down her phone, Li Xiwuâs lips curled into a smile. Guan Suling walked over. âOnly he can make you so happy.â
Li Xiwu pursed her lips. âI married him, Grandma.â
âOf course I know.â At the mention of this, Guan Suling was a little angry. âBefore this, I thought that Pei Jingzhou had fallen in love with someone else.
Although I havenât seen him for four years, I know that I wonât be nice to him.â
Li Xiwu could tell that her grandmother had a prejudice against Pei Jingzhou. Initially, she thought that he had fallen in love with someone else, so she did not like Pei Jingzhou. Now, because he hid her away and missed her, she did not like Pei Jingzhou.
Guan Suling continued, âBut since youâre married, Grandma naturally wonât force you to separate. In this world, nothing is more important than happiness. Itâs my business if I donât like him. It has nothing to do with you.
Donât worry.â
Li Xiwu smiled and nodded.
Ten minutes later, the door of the ward opened.
Dao Xi came in and said) âOld Madam, that Mr. Pei is here. Should we stop him?â
Guan Suling snorted. âCan you stop him? Forget it, let him in. This kid is probably worried sick. Donât think I donât know that he barged into the MO Residence last night.â
Pei Jingzhou walked in just as the sentence finished..
