The café was backed up to the central business district. Most of the people who came here for coffee were white-collar workers. There was no noise. It was quiet.

Li Xiwu had been mentally prepared on the way here. Faced with Jiang Ce’s words, she took a sip of her coffee and nodded frankly after putting it down.

“Sure.”

Jiang Ce said, “Then I’ll ask?”

Li Xiwu said, “Okay.”

Jiang Ce knew in his heart what to talk about. He would not be too direct, lest Li Xiwu feel repulsed and disgusted. After that, there were more than twenty minutes of questions and answers—

“Mrs. Pei, do you remember the first time you had a memory fluctuation?” “When I went to Mount Liang to record a show and was accidentally injured.”

“Injured on the head?” “Yes, the head.”

“What did you remember?”

“I remember…” After about two minutes, Li Xiwu slowly replied, “I remembered the last time I saw my father in Country T. In the end, he disappeared from my sight.’

Jiang Ce understood that these memories were too sad, which was why Li Xiwu did not answer immediately. Jiang Ce continued to ask, “Did you recall the past in a dream every time?”

Li Xiwu nodded. “Yes.”

“Do those scenes in your dreams make you sad every time?”

“…Yes.”

“Every time?”

“Every time.”

Jiang Ce said, “Because those are unforgettable.”

Li Xiwu choked, and the smile on her lips became more and more bitter. “Shouldn’t unforgettable feelings be mixed with sorrow and joy? Why do I only think of… sorrow?”

Jiang Ce was silent and did not give her a complete answer immediately. Worried that Li Xiwu’s emotions would be in chaos, he changed the topic for the time being. “Do you need snacks?”

Li Xiwu shook her head. “No. thank vou.” She looked directlv at Tiang Ce. “Go

Don’t worry about my emotions. I remember most of it. Nothing can affect me.”

Jiang Ce clasped his hands on the table and said seriously, “You remember most of it. In fact, it refers to most of your experiences in Country T. There have never been any scenes of you living in the capital, right?”

Jiang Ce’s words hit the nail on the head. It was also something Li Xiwu had always neglected.

Not long ago, she had a dream. She dreamed that her mother had passed away and she had just given birth… Everything that happened in the dream was very sad, as if she had been born very bitter and had experienced all kinds of hardships. Now that she had lost her memories, her life was peaceful.

Seeing that Li Xiwu had already realized it, Jiang Ce smiled. “At this point, let’s put this topic to the question you asked me just now. You said that the dream was filled with sorrow. I said that it was an unforgettable experience for you, but you asked me again, shouldn’t unforgettable sorrow and joy be mixed? Yes, it’s sorrow and joy, happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. It’s sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy. It’s your entire life.”

Li Xiwu frowned, as if she was gradually understanding what Jiang Ce meant.

Jiang Ce continued, “Your sorrow happened in Country T and also ended in Country T. That was the cause and end of everything, so everything you saw in your dream was destined to be sorrow. From the first time you dreamed of the last time you saw your father in Country T, all you cared about was everything that happened in Country T. This also caused your subsequent dreams to be filled with sorrow.”

These were all points that Li Xiwu had always neglected.

She suddenly understood, and the bitter smile on her lips turned to relief. “Ever since I remembered those pasts intermittently, I’ve always felt that the first twenty years of my life were sad. In fact, only that year was a hurdle I couldn’t cross. From then on, it became a chasm I couldn’t cross. I never thought about my life before that year.”

Jiang Ce was relieved. “Yes, your understanding is correct.”

Li Xiwu looked up at Jiang Ce. “Doctor Jiang, do you have anything else to ask?”

“I’ve roughly understood everything,” Jiang Ce said and raised his hand to look at his watch. “It’s exactly twelve o’clock. I’ll book the cafeteria first.”

Li Xiwu replied, “Okay.”

After leaving the cafe, Li Xiwu learned that Jiang Ce had taken a taxi, so she invited him to take her car.

Jiang Ce did not refuse and got into the car with Li Xiwu.

Jiang Ce was fastening his seatbelt when Li Xiwu adjusted the route and was about to drive. She placed her hand on the steering wheel when she noticed a familiar car appear in the outer rearview mirror. Convinced she wasn’t seeing things, she turned to Jiang Ce. “Drive my car.”

Jiang Ce was surprised. However, he quickly understood the reason because Li Xiwu said, “I’ll take the car behind.”

Jiang Ce couldn’t see the car behind him in the inner mirror on his right, but he could guess who it would be. He unbuckled his seatbelt. “Okay, I’ll drive.”

Li Xiwu pushed open the car door and got out. Jiang Ce walked around the front of the car to her side and got into the driver’s seat. After closing the door, he said to Li Xiwu, “Mrs. Pei, I’ll wait for you and Mr. Pei in the restaurant.”

Li Xiwu nodded. “Okay.”

The car drove away. Li Xiwu turned around and went to the car behind.

Seeing this, Chen Xin got out of the car immediately and opened the car door for Li Xiwu. “Madam.

Li Xiwu thanked him and bent down to get into the car. Pei Jingzhou looked at her sideways and said in a low voice, “You can pretend that you didn’t see me.”

Li Xiwu smiled. “It’s so obvious. If I don’t see it, won’t I be nagged by Mr. Pei for two or three days when I go back?” Her tone was light and her eyes were bright. It was obvious that she was in a good mood. Pei Jingzhou asked softly, “Do I look like someone who can nag?”

Li Xiwu took his arm. “That’s hard to say.”

Pei Jingzhou covered her hand with his palm and held it gently. “Where are you going?”

After Chen Xin received it, he adjusted the navigation and set off. Along the way, Li Xiwu had a lot to tell Pei Jingzhou about what she had chatted with Jiang Ce in the cafe and some of her own thoughts.

Pei Jingzhou could clearly feel some changes after Li Xiwu and Jiang Ce’s conversation. This was probably enlightenment in a sense. After Jiang Ce’s guidance, Li Xiwu opened up all the knots in her heart. Those meaningful conversations made her understand a lot of things that she had neglected before.

The car arrived at the restaurant Jiang Ce had booked. Chen Xin parked by the roadside and had no intention of parking in the parking lot.

Li Xiwu turned to look at Pei Jingzhou. “Aren’t you going to eat with me?” Pei Jingzhou shook his head.

Li Xiwu pursed her lips. “You asked Doctor Jiang to contact me. After we met, I was the one who talked to him alone. On the way here just now, you only listened to me and didn’t ask me anything.”

Pei Jingzhou pulled her closer.. “So what are you trying to say?”
