After saying this, Li Xiwu was stunned for a long time.
She was thinking, how could she say such a thing...
She looked at Pei Jingzhou eagerly. He didn't look sad because of what she said. He just looked at her quietly and guarded her without making any answer.
Li Xiwu's voice became hoarse and she asked him slowly: "Pei Jingzhou, why did you like me before...?"
Pei Jingzhou didn't intend to answer.
He knew that she had brought up the topic casually and deliberately interrupted what had just happened.
But there was some hope in her eyes, and Pei Jingzhou didn't want to see her disappointed eyes, so he answered her unhurriedly: "Psychologist Carl Rogers said that love is deep understanding and acceptance, and I think the same is true for liking.
"
Li Xiwu lowered his eyes and thought carefully about what Pei Jingzhou said.
After thinking for a moment, she raised her eyes, her apricot eyes bright and clear.
She looked into Pei Jingzhou's eyes and said, "So, summed up in the simplest two words, it is actually preference, right?"
Pei Jingzhou: "Yeah."
Li Xiwu smiled and said in a low voice, "It turns out to be a preference."
Pei Jingzhou didn't answer, just looked at her quietly as before.
Li Xiwu didn't know when he fell asleep.
When she woke up, she was already in the hospital.
There was only one nurse in the ward, and Pei Jingzhou was nowhere to be seen. Li Xiwu made a slight noise, and the nurse heard it and turned around and walked to the bed.
After some questioning, the nurse breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ms. Li, your injury has not healed. You were running around yesterday and your body was overloaded. You should have a good rest."
Li Xiwu's throat was extremely dry now. He looked at the nurse and said, "I want to drink some water. Could you please?"
"OK."
The nurse first raised and lowered the backrest of the hospital bed, poured a glass of warm water for Li Xiwu, and handed it to her: "It's not hot, you drink it slowly."
Li Xiwu took it and said thank you again.
The nurse said: "Before Mr. Pei left, he specifically asked me to stay here to guard you. He also boiled the water in advance. It will be just right for you to drink when you wake up."
Hearing the nurse mention Pei Jingzhou, Li Xiwu paused as he picked up the water glass and prepared to drink water.
She looked up and asked, "Where is he?"
Nurse: "Mr. Pei is out, but he said when he would be back."
As she said that, the nurse turned and looked at the clock on the wall: "Mr. Pei left at 8:20. He said he would be back in about an hour and a half. It is now 9:40, and he should be back in a few minutes.
Already."
Li Xiwu hummed, drank the water, and handed the cup to the nurse.
The nurse asked: "Ms. Li, are you hungry now?"
Li Xiwu shook his head: "I'm not hungry, I've had dinner."
The nurse pointed to the thermos box on the table next to her: "Mr. Pei prepared some soup. He said he would ask you if you want to drink it when you wake up."
Li Xiwu looked in the direction pointed by the nurse.
There is indeed a thermos box on the small table.
The insulation time of the insulated box is about three to five hours, which should be just right for her to drink now.
She said to the nurse: "Sorry to trouble you."
"No trouble, no trouble," the nurse said quickly.
This is a hospital under Pei's family. The little nurse can watch Li Xiwu wake up here, take care of Li Xiwu, and get an extra commission. She is not happy in time. When she hears Li Xiwu keep saying thank you to her,
She was all flustered.
The nurse poured a bowl in front of Li Xiwu: "Miss Li, it's not hot anymore. The temperature is just right. Drink it slowly."
"Thanks."
Li Xiwu thanked him and took it.
There was a very faint fragrance coming from the porcelain bowl. She couldn't identify it for a moment. After taking a sip, she realized that it was white Poria soup. The taste of Poria was so weak that it was usually difficult to taste it, but she had drunk it several times before and the taste was the same.
You can tell it's Poria cocos when you taste it.
She drank the bowl of soup cleanly.
The nurse asked her: "Does Miss Li still drink?"
Li Xiwu licked the soup on his lips: "Please have another half bowl, please."
The nurse hurriedly said it was no trouble, and then went to pour half a bowl of soup for Li Xiwu. With Li Xiwu's current appetite, one and a half bowls would be just right, and two bowls might be a bit full.
After drinking the soup, she looked for her mobile phone.
The nurse saw what Li Xiwu was looking for and handed Li Xiwu the mobile phone on the cabinet: "Miss Li, your mobile phone is here."
Li Xiwu took the phone: "Thank you."
The nurse said: "Miss Li, if you need to go to the bathroom later, just call me."
"Yeah." Li Xiwu responded, then lowered his eyes to look at his phone.
There are several missed calls on the page, from Qiao Qiao and Ji Weiling.
Qiao Qiao called her three times and Ji Weiling called her twice. Qiao Qiao probably saw the news on the Internet, and Ji Weiling knew that she was recording a program during the day. He probably waited until the recording of the program was over before he dared to call her. As a result,
She was in a coma and failed to receive Ji Weiling's call.
She first called Ji Weiling back.
As she guessed, Ji Weiling was indeed too worried about her because of what happened yesterday: "I felt relieved when I saw you on the show. I didn't dare to call you in the middle of the show, for fear of affecting your recording of the show, and also for fear of you."
Hearing my voice affected my mood. I tried my best to call you at seven o'clock but you didn't answer. I was still worried..."
Li Xiwu said softly: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Ji Weiling's voice had a hint of crying: "I'm sorry, Teacher Li, it was me who caused you to get hurt this time."
Li Xiwu: "I don't want to hear this."
Ji Weiling was as silent as a cicada.
Li Xiwu took a deep breath and said slowly: "That drama can't be filmed, so pack your mind and go to Yinghuang Entertainment. You will still have a chance to turn around when you get there, but the premise of all this is that you are willing to start all over again.
."
Ji Weiling said firmly: "I will definitely live up to your expectations of me this time."
"No need." Li Xiwu's voice was very calm: "It's a good thing for people to have goals, but don't restrict your thoughts. No one will pave the way for you this time. I just pointed out another way for you. As for how to take this road
, it’s up to you to make your own decision.”
These words are too inciting.
So after Li Xiwu said these words, he told Ji Weiling that he still had something to do and hung up the phone first.
Ji Weiling is a very simple person, mostly simple. He has never suffered much, nor has he experienced too many "realistic" beatings. Before this incident, he had never experienced any big ups and downs.
She has been well protected by Li Xiwu since her debut, but bad luck caused her to go astray in her haste.
No one has smooth sailing. People always have to go through hardships before they can be reborn. Xie Wen is like this, and so is Ji Weiling. So Li Xiwu believes that in the near future, Xie Wen and Ji Weiling will definitely make a comeback.
.
After adjusting his mentality, Li Xiwu prepared to call Qiao Qiao back.
Just when he was about to make a call, the ward door opened. Li Xiwu heard the sound and looked up, seeing that Pei Jingzhou was back.
"Pei Jingzhou." She seemed to call him by his name smoothly.
Pei Jingzhou paused and saw that she had woken up. His footsteps that he deliberately put back turned into a quick step towards her.
