“You know me too well. I like the dress you prepared for me, too, but…” She pointed a finger at him, her small expression slightly serious. “You’re not allowed to tear my skirt again. I like that skirt very much.”

Hearing Li You’s words, Pei Jingzhou felt even more guilty. “Why don’t I buy one and return it to you?”

Li You shook her head. “That’s different.’

Pei Jingzhou asked, “Not even the exact same?”

Li You insisted on being unreasonable. “That’s different.”

She wanted to see how the usually calm Pei Jingzhou would deal with this matter. In the end, he did not say anything else and walked past her into the bedroom. Just as she was wondering what he was going to do, Pei Jingzhou came out with her skirt. Li You asked, “What are you doing?”

“Since you want the original, and you won’t accept an exact same one, I’ll wash this dress and sew it up again where it was torn. I promise it’ll be exactly the same again.” He sounded so serious when he said this.

At this moment, it seemed important to him. He didn’t seem to think she was being unreasonable at all.

Li You was caught between laughter and tears. “You try your best to satisfy all my requirements. Don’t you think I’m being unreasonable, Pei Jingzhou?”

Pei Jingzhou looked at her. “l know.”

He knows? She was slightly stunned. “You know I’m being unreasonable?”

“l do,” he repeated, in the same tone as before.

She asked, “Then why are you still so cooperative when I’m being unreasonable?”

Pei Jingzhou pulled her over and held her hand tightly. “I indulged you. Of course I have to cooperate.” With that, he led her to the door, the bag containing his birthday gifts in his other hand.

Li You was immersed in what he had just said. She was delighted. She looked in the direction and immediately asked him, “Are we leaving?”

Pei Jingzhou said, “l have to take you to the airport. Your flight leaves at eleven-thirty.”

When Li You heard that Pei Jingzhou was sending her to the airport, her face fell. “Aren’t you going to keep me?”

Pei Jingzhou stopped in his tracks. She stopped, too, and raised her face to his. Pei Jingzhou pondered for a moment and reminded her, “You have a few exams ahead of you. You haven’t had time to revise yet. There’s still time to go back and revise.’

“I’m not in the mood to study right now,” she said. Pei Jingzhou asked her, “Why aren’t you in the mood to study?”

Li You cleared her throat. “1 want to stay with you.”

Pei Jingzhou was silent. The next second, Li You retracted her hand from Pei Jingzhou’s. “Forget it. It’s not like I have to stay with you. Anyway, I can pass the exam even without revising. You don’t have to worry.” She threw a tantrum and started to walk away. Pei Jingzhou pulled her back and she said,

“What?”

Pei Jingzhou said, “Continue staying here tonight.”

Li You immediately restrained her temper. “I-I-I… I mean, I want to be with you. I can’t bear to leave you.”

If she continued to stay here today, she would not be very resistant. She was just afraid that the consequences of not controlling herself would be that she would recover for a few days. To be honest, she was looking forward to it.

But she didn’t show it.

Pei Jingzhou smiled silently. He knew that she was a little afraid and that last night had been a little too ruthless, so he did not say anything else. But since she didn’t want to leave, he took out his phone. “I’ll change your flight.”

Li You nodded. “Okay, okay.”

She waited patiently for Pei Jingzhou to change the flight to tomorrow morning because it would take nearly four hours for the flight to reach Country T. It was already dark when the afternoon flight arrived, even though it was an hour later in Country T than in the capital.

He didn’t want it to be dark before she rushed back to Country T. After changing the flight time, he put away his phone and led her away from the house in Lake Lu.

Li You did not walk very quickly, but she was very strong-willed not to let Pei Jingzhou carry her down. They walked slowly along the way, and Pei Jingzhou slowed down along with her.

In the car, Li You asked a more worried question. “That guest bedroom wasn’t even cleaned up.”

It was a mess. That bedsheet clearly needed special treatment.

Pei Jingzhou told her not to worry. “I’ll handle it.”

Li You asked, “You’ll handle it yourself?”

Pei Jingzhou laughed and asked, “What else?”

Li You was in a daze for a moment. She suddenly realized that Pei Jingzhou had been smiling since she woke up this morning. She rested her elbows on the armrest box and rested her chin on her palms as she looked at him. “It’s worth your birthday this time, isn’t it?”

Pei Jingzhou raised his eyebrows and changed the topic. “Do you need me to help you revise and do the questions? If you change the flight time, my time will be free. I happen to have time.”

“Just talk. Why bring up revision when you’re talking? How disappointing.”

She quickly ended the conversation. “Don’t worry, I’ll pass.”

Pei Jingzhou asked, “Is university as good as you think?”

At the mention of this, Li You sighed. “It’s as good as I imagined, but it’s not especially good. There are quite a lot of exams, although they’re all voluntary. Did you know that my father instructed me to pass at least six languages? I’m almost tongue-tied from learning all kinds of languages alternately every day.”

Pei Jingzhou said, “Uncle knows eight languages.”

“Yes, it’s terrifying. Moreover, my father speaks the eight languages very well. There’s no pressure to switch between minute and second.” As she spoke, she couldn’t help but sigh. “My father also said that as long as I have four languages to switch between without pressure like him, it’s good enough.

Hmph, underestimate me.”

Pei Jingzhou laughed. “You’ve been there for two years. Do you speak the language there now?”

“Say what? Say Sawatdee Ka?”

She said this with a hoarse voice. At first glance, it really sounded like a Thai accent.

Li You shared many interesting things with Pei Jingzhou. They were all recent because he knew all about them. On the way to breakfast, Pei Jingzhou’s smile did not stop.

Guan Suling knew that Li You had not returned last night and had not left this morning. She called and asked worriedly. When she found out that Li You was by Pei Jingzhou’s side, she was a little relieved.

After comforting her grandmother, Pei Jingzhou brought Li You back to the Pei residence. However, his luck was not too good. Han Qianye was not at home and went to Haojiang with Pei Qingjie. Pei Jiao was overseas at this time, so only Pei You’an was at home.

Pei You’an was playing games in his room and did not know that his brother had brought his sister-in-law back. When he came out, he only saw Li You from afar. He had probably not seen her for too long and had almost forgotten who she was. He asked the old servant beside him, “Who’s that woman?” The old servant replied, “It’s the future Young Madam.”

Pei You’an nodded. “l can’t imagine my brother getting married at such a young age.”

The servant was an old servant and knew about Pei Jingzhou and Li You. She smiled and said, “Young Master has been with her for a long time.”

Pei You’an was still a kid at this moment. He seemed to understand. “Then they must be very in love, right?”

“Of course. Young Master and she are the most compatible childhood sweethearts I’ve ever met..
