This was the first time that Li Xiwu mentioned that person's name in front of Pei Jingzhou.
She had never mentioned it before, and she had never asked about it.
Occasionally, he mentioned that he just wanted to go to Country T with Pei Jingzhou, but at that time his expression would always change, but it was not angry, but a kind of complexity that she could not see through.
After that, she never mentioned that she wanted to go to country T again.
As the agreed engagement was about to expire, Mrs. Desin came to the door again, and Miss Yu, whose eyes turned red when she hugged her...
Li Xiwu was in a mess. This had nothing to do with her, but subconsciously she always felt that it was somehow related to her...
After being quiet for so long, Pei Jingzhou did not expect that the first question Li Xiwu asked would be this question. His jaw tightened: "What kind of answer do you want to hear?"
Li Xiwu pursed his lips: "A true answer."
She looked into his eyes, her firm eyes conveying that at this moment she just wanted to hear a true answer.
Pei Jingzhou replied with one word: "Like."
Li Xiwu looked at Pei Jingzhou's cold face: "It's been three years, can you still tell the difference between her and me?"
Pei Jingzhou: "No need to distinguish."
"It needs to be distinguished."
Li Xiwu's voice became softer: "We are not the same person anymore. If I pin my thoughts on her, she will definitely not be happy if she finds out. Fourth brother, don't make the girl you love angry."
Pei Jingzhou asked, "What about you?"
Li Xiwu's expression returned to its previous relaxed state: "I'm different. I'm the one who takes her place. I keep gaining and possessing, and I never lose, so I'm free."
Speaking of which.
Li Xiwu even felt a lot more relaxed.
The complicated emotions that Yu Hewei brought to her in Qiong Tower just now have all disappeared at this moment.
Pei Jingzhou reached out and took Li Xiwu's hand: "Wife."
The word "wife" made Li Xiwu's heart tremble.
She raised her eyes to look at him.
Pei Jingzhou's pupils were as deep as the sea, just staring into her eyes: "I love you."
The moment these three words came out of Pei Jingzhou's mouth, Li Xiwu's heart was shocked and his pupils shrank.
After a few seconds, she withdrew her hand from Pei Jingzhou's palm as if she was being burned.
She took a breath and reminded him: "I am not Li You. Fourth brother gave me his love. If love is such a solemn thing, please don't put it on me again."
Pei Jingzhou looked at her quietly for a while.
Then he held her face and kissed her.
The driver consciously raised the barrier, blocking out the scene behind him.
Li Xiwu was very obedient and allowed Pei Jingzhou to kiss her. No matter whether it was her eyebrows, the bridge of her nose, her cheeks, or even the corners of her lips, she did not show any resistance.
No response when pressed.
Pei Jingzhou didn't care whether she responded or not.
At the end of the lingering and deep kiss, he held her in his arms and calmed his breath in her ear: "Are you disappointed in me?"
Li Xiwu lowered his eyes and did not answer.
There was another moment of silence.
After a long time, Pei Jingzhou said: "That day will eventually come..."
-
Li Xiwu spent this afternoon dealing with work matters.
Only work can keep her mind occupied and make her feel at ease.
After being busy until about four o'clock, she went to visit Ji Weiling's crew. Ji Weiling was very happy. He originally only invited Li Xiwu to drink milk tea, but because he was in such a good mood, he ended up inviting the entire crew to drink milk tea.
Li Xiwu did not return to Luhu in the evening.
Went to the small courtyard.
Qiao Qiao also came.
Li Xiwu looked at the soup in the pot: "Qiao'er, increase the heat."
Qiao Qiao smiled while adding firewood: "When you are alone, you use the induction cooker. When I come, you light the fire. I really obeyed you and made my face look gray."
Li Xiwu thoughtfully took a tissue and said, "I'll wipe it for you."
Best friends almost never talk about work when they are together.
Let’s talk about the present, let’s talk about the past and present, and let’s talk about the secrets.
After learning what Li Xiwu was worried about, he said frankly: "I was rushing to get a divorce and get 400 million yuan before appearing on the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law variety show. As a result, not only did I have a good relationship with my mother-in-law, but my relationship with my husband also improved a lot. You are not rushing for a divorce.
This is for one, two, three and four babies."
Li Xiwu: "..."
She put down the spoon in her hand and turned to look at Qiao Qiao, who was sitting on a small bench and lighting the fire: "Forget it about one litter, are you going to be a sow for the second, third, and fourth litters?"
Qiao Qiao continued to add more firewood: "To the extent that the relationship is enhanced like this, if there is no second, third or fourth child, then the first child is not far away."
Li Xiwu pursed his lips, with a slightly serious expression: "Perhaps, even if Pei Jingzhou and I keep going like this, we won't have any children."
Qiao Qiao expressed her understanding: "Of course, who would have a child with someone who doesn't love themselves? You would be stupid if you gave birth to me."
Li Xiwu looked at Qiao Qiao with a serious expression: "Pei Jingzhou can't give birth to him."
The air suddenly became quiet.
There was only the sound of crackling firewood.
The topics between best friends are inherently bold, and the two of them talk about everything in private.
After about dozens of seconds, Qiao Qiao sat upright and said, "Please tell me in detail."
Li Xiwu picked up a spoon to stir the soup in the pot and tasted it: "There were several times when I didn't take any measures, just in case I wanted to get a contraceptive injection. Taking pills is always bad for the body, but before the injection, I
I went to the hospital for a checkup first, and it was not only normal, but I am also in a fertile state."
Qiao Qiao's eyes widened and she couldn't wait to continue: "Please continue."
Li Xiwu crossed his chest with one hand and supported his chin with the other: "But I have never been pregnant, so I think it should be Pei Jingzhou's infertility."
Qiao Qiao looked like she was overwhelmed: "Holy crap! This means Pei Jingzhou can't give birth!"
Li Xiwu nodded: "Later, I quietly confirmed that I would indeed not be pregnant, so I think my guess was correct."
After Qiao Qiao was surprised, she showed a look of regret: "Tsk, Mr. Pei's family is extremely wealthy, but it's such a pity that he has no queen."
Li Xiwu laughed: "Isn't there also Pei You'an?"
"Oh, that's right, there's Pei You'an as well." Qiao Qiao asked again: "Does Pei Jingzhou himself know that he can't give birth?"
"Just found out."
This was not Li Xiwu's answer.
It was the sound coming from outside the door.
Qiao Qiao was frightened.
Turning around, he saw the dusty man coming in with a look of horror on his face: "...Mr. Pei!"
Li Xiwu's mouth also stiffened.
As expected, you can't say bad things behind someone's back.
But it seems that what she said was not a bad thing, it was a fact that she had researched...
Pei Jingzhou looked at the frightened Qiao Qiao out of the cold corner of his eye: "Are you surprised to see me?"
Qiao Qiao swallowed hard and laughed dryly: "How could...hehe, Mr. Pei, please sit down."
While laughing, he stood up and slowly moved his feet out bit by bit.
Moving to Li Xiwu, she whispered: "Didn't you say that today is a happy time for us two? Why is Pei Jingzhou here?"
"Uh..." Li Xiwu was speechless.
She said Pei Jingzhou would not come, she just thought.
Qiao Qiao looked at Pei Jingzhou's Yan Luo face, and was so worried: "I, I, I, I, I went over to find some snacks to eat, I'm a little greedy."
Just drop the words and run away.
Li Xiwu: "..."
Pei Jingzhou walked over and said as he walked: "I just overheard you talking about how I can't give birth?"
