Thinking about it from his perspective, if his sister had had such a boyfriend, he wouldn't have liked it either.
He and Li Huzhu had almost no future.
There was a huge difference in family background and class between the two families. In addition, Li Huzhu seemed to have compromised with reality and would not go against his family for his sake. He had given up hope.
He just wanted to see her.
He was worried when he heard that she had been ill for several days, but that was all.
"Li Jing, I just want to take a look at her, and I'll leave when I'm done." Zhou Mulian was afraid of waking up Li Huzhu, so he kept his voice low, so it sounded like he was feeling guilty and short of breath.
Li Jing was so angry that she came over and pulled his arm hard, pushing him out.
Seeing this, Mrs. Li scolded her son softly: "Ah Jing, you must not be rude! Is this how you treat your guests?"
"What kind of guest is he? Get out of here, don't force me to do anything! Who are you, and you dare to enter my house?" Although Li Jing suppressed her anger, her words were extremely unpleasant.
Zhou Mulian had expected this, and he was not particularly uncomfortable. He just pressed against the door frame and refused to leave.
"I'll just take a look!"
Li Jing took action again: "Get out, get out!"
Zhou Mulian: "I've always given in to you, don't force me to fight back!"
Mrs. Li couldn't help shouting: "Ah Jing!"
Such a sound seemed to alarm Li Huzhu.
Li Huzhu is about to wake up.
Li Jing used force again and pushed Zhou Mulian to stagger a few steps. He closed the door with his backhand and locked his mother and sister in the room.
He casually took off his coat and moved his wrist: "Get out, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
Zhou Mulian didn't want to fight.
He knew that since Li Huzhu fell in love with him, Li Jing was very opposed to him and didn't like him.
Li Jing looked down upon his family background and felt that he was not worthy of Li Huzhu.
He did enjoy Li Huzhu's efforts.
He didn't mean it, he was just focused on his studies. It was already difficult for him to fall in love with her, so he didn't devote more time to taking care of her studies.
He thought that, like him, she also took care of herself while falling in love.
Zhou Mulian didn't want to defend himself. He did a very poor job in Li Huzhu's love affair.
Now, he doesn't think about getting back together again, he just wants to see her.
"I……"
"Are you leaving?" Li Jing shouted again.
Zhou Mulian didn't want to have a big fight with him.
It’s meaningless, and it will make it difficult for Li Huzhu to do it.
Seeing this, he could only sigh: "I'm leaving."
He turned and went downstairs.
Li Huzhu woke up at this time. When she saw her mother, she asked, "What's going on outside? I seem to hear my brother cursing."
Mrs. Li was very frustrated: "That Dr. Zhou, he came to see you. I didn't expect that Ah Jing would actually hit someone..."
Li Huzhu had a low fever and felt weak all over. When she heard the words "Doctor Zhou", she got the strength to get out of bed and asked, "Where is he?"
Mrs. Li: "How do you feel?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine." She softly pushed her mother away and ran out without wearing any shoes.
Zhou Mulian is here.
He came to see her.
Li Huzhu's heart felt sore and painful. This was the first time in many years that he took the initiative to visit her.
Even if there was no result, Li Huzhu still wanted to take another look at him.
Li Jing drove Zhou Mulian downstairs, as if afraid that he would not leave, so she drove him to the Moon Gate.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, making it damp and cold.
The umbrella in his hand couldn't cover it, and his gown and trouser legs were all wet.
When he turned around, he found that Li Huzhu had rushed out without an umbrella or shoes. His pajamas were soaked by the rain, and his steps were staggering and firm.
Li Jing's eyes were bloodshot for a moment.
He bit his lip, holding the umbrella with one hand and struggling to take off his gown with the other. He came over and draped it over her shoulders, stuffed the umbrella into her arms, and hugged her sideways.
Li Huzhu struggled: "Brother, is Zhou Mulian here? Where is he?"
Li Jing said nothing and hugged her back.
Li Huzhu struggled, but his arms were like iron hoops, holding her tightly.
