Li Xiwu said, “Also, I was angry because I felt that you despised my house, but at that time, I didn’t know that it was actually because you didn’t like the smell of mutton. It was at that moment of anger that I said that I won’t contact you again. My anger subsided, but 1 couldn’t let go of my dignity every day, so I could only look forward to you taking the initiative to look for me every day. I’ve been looking forward to it—for half a year.”

She emphasized the words ‘half a year’.

These past events were too long ago. Even if she had already recovered her memories, she would not remember them often. However, from the moment Pei Jingzhou mentioned them just now, many memories appeared in her mind. The images were so clear.

Pei Jingzhou said, “l was also waiting for you to take the initiative to look for me for half a year.”

Li Xiwu smiled. “We were both so stubborn. Did someone persuade you to take the initiative to look for me later?”

“No one persuaded me. Although we didn’t contact each other for half a year, I tried to spy on you every week until I saw a boy beside you one day. You were talking and laughing…”

Li Xiwu quickly covered Pei Jingzhou’s mouth and stopped him from continuing. “1 was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong. 1 did that on purpose. I was already anxious at that time. You weren’t the only one trying to see me. I was the same. I wanted to see you every day, but I was stubborn and couldn’t put down my pride. It was only when my deskmate told me that if one party cared about the other, if a member of the opposite sex appeared beside one party, the other party would definitely appear immediately. At that time, you didn’t have any members of the opposite sex around you, so I had no choice but to try it myself. In the end, you really appeared.” Pei Jingzhou:

Li Xiwu did not dare to look Pei Jingzhou in the eye.

Pei Jingzhou took her hand and kissed her palm. “So I was never the only one who insisted.’

Li Xiwu’s palm itched and she retracted it. “Of course. It’s just that you don’t know. You’re not allowed to dig up old scores in the future.” Pei Jingzhou denied it. “I’m not digging up old scores.”

“Isn’t this an old score?” She got up from Pei Jingzhou. ‘1 1 can’t even take it anymore.”

When she got up, she did not forget to pull Pei Jingzhou along. “Now that we’ve eaten the candied hawthorn and roasted lamb leg, we should go home. Otherwise, the two little fellows will be anxious.’

Pei Jingzhou picked up her thermos. “Let’s go.”

Li Xiwu picked up the remaining candied hawthorn and held Pei Jingzhou’s arm. As she walked, she asked him, “What are Mom and Dad eating tonight?” She had already changed the way she addressed Han Qianye and Pei Qingji. She no longer called them Uncle and Auntie. Instead, she called them Mom and Dad like Pei Jingzhou.

Pei Jingzhou said, “There are many dishes that you like.”

Li Xiwu asked, “Steamed pork ribs?”

“Yes.

“Fish with vinegar sauce?”

“Yes.

“Well, I haven’t had cured meat in a long time.”

“There are some.’

“And…

“We have everything.”

Li Xiwu couldn’t help but laugh. “l thought of these casually.”

“Think whatever you want. I’ll do whatever you want.” Pei Jingzhou opened the car door for her.

Li Xiwu looked at him. “There’s no need for you to enter the kitchen personally when we return to Tan Hua Manor.’

There was no chauffeur today. Pei Jingzhou drove. Li Xiwu sat in the front passenger seat. Pei Jingzhou leaned in and personally fastened her seatbelt. He did not forget to kiss her before closing the car door.

Pei Jingzhou walked around the front of the car and got in.

Li Xiwu was very familiar with the road back to Tan Hua Manor. At first, she did not pay much attention to the road, but it did not take long for her to realize that this road was not the way back to Tan Hua Manor, but to…

She did not ask Pei Jingzhou. It was not until the car drove to the small courtyard in the suburbs that Li Xiwu finally realized why he said that he would cook personally. Tonight was a private time..
