Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The café was backed up to the central business district. Most of the people who ca here for coffee were white-collar workers. There was no noise. It was quiet.
Li Xiwu had been ntally prepared on the way here. Faced with Jiang Ce’s words, she took a sip of her coffee and nodded frankly after putting it down.
“Sure.”
Jiang Ce said, “Then I’ll ask?”
Li Xiwu said, “Okay.”
Jiang Ce knew in his heart what to talk about. He would not be too direct, lest Li Xiwu feel repulsed and disgusted. After that, there were more than twenty minutes of questions and answers—
“Mrs. Pei, do you rember the first ti you had a mory fluctuation?” “When I went to Mount Liang to record a show and was accidentally injured.”
“Injured on the head?” “Yes, the head.”
“What did you rember?”
“I rember…” After about two minutes, Li Xiwu slowly replied, “I rembered the last ti I saw my father in Country T. In the end, he disappeared from my sight.’
Jiang Ce understood that these mories were too sad, which was why Li Xiwu did not answer imdiately. Jiang Ce continued to ask, “Did you recall the past in a dream every ti?”
Li Xiwu nodded. “Yes.”
“Do those scenes in your dreams make you sad every ti?”
“…Yes.”
“Every ti?”
“Every ti.”
Jiang Ce said, “Because those are unforgettable.”
Li Xiwu choked, and the smile on her lips beca more and more bitter. “Shouldn’t unforgettable feelings be mixed with sorrow and joy? Why do I only think of… sorrow?”
Jiang Ce was silent and did not give her a complete answer imdiately. Worried that Li Xiwu’s emotions would be in chaos, he changed the topic for the ti being. “Do you need snacks?”
Li Xiwu shook her head. “No. thank vou.” She looked directlv at Tiang Ce. “Go
Don’t worry about my emotions. I rember most of it. Nothing can affect .”
Jiang Ce clasped his hands on the table and said seriously, “You rember most of it. In fact, it refers to most of your experiences in Country T. There have never been any scenes of you living in the capital, right?”
Jiang Ce’s words hit the nail on the head. It was also sothing Li Xiwu had always neglected.
Not long ago, she had a dream. She dread that her mother had passed away and she had just given birth… Everything that happened in the dream was very sad, as if she had been born very bitter and had experienced all kinds of hardships. Now that she had lost her mories, her life was peaceful.
Seeing that Li Xiwu had already realized it, Jiang Ce smiled. “At this point, let’s put this topic to the question you asked just now. You said that the dream was filled with sorrow. I said that it was an unforgettable experience for you, but you asked again, shouldn’t unforgettable sorrow and joy be mixed? Yes, it’s sorrow and joy, happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. It’s sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy. It’s your entire life.”
Li Xiwu frowned, as if she was gradually understanding what Jiang Ce ant.
Jiang Ce continued, “Your sorrow happened in Country T and also ended in Country T. That was the cause and end of everything, so everything you saw in your dream was destined to be sorrow. From the first ti you dread of the last ti you saw your father in Country T, all you cared about was everything that happened in Country T. This also caused your subsequent dreams to be filled with sorrow.”
These were all points that Li Xiwu had always neglected.
She suddenly understood, and the bitter smile on her lips turned to relief. “Ever since I rembered those pasts intermittently, I’ve always felt that the first twenty years of my life were sad. In fact, only that year was a hurdle I couldn’t cross. From then on, it beca a chasm I couldn’t cross. I never thought about my life before that year.”
Jiang Ce was relieved. “Yes, your understanding is correct.”
Li Xiwu looked up at Jiang Ce. “Doctor Jiang, do you have anything else to ask?”
“I’ve roughly understood everything,” Jiang Ce said and raised his hand to look at his watch. “It’s exactly twelve o’clock. I’ll book the cafeteria first.”
Li Xiwu replied, “Okay.”
After leaving the cafe, Li Xiwu learned that Jiang Ce had taken a taxi, so she invited him to take her car.
Jiang Ce did not refuse and got into the car with Li Xiwu.
Jiang Ce was fastening his seatbelt when Li Xiwu adjusted the route and was about to drive. She placed her hand on the steering wheel when she noticed a familiar car appear in the outer rearview mirror. Convinced she wasn’t seeing things, she turned to Jiang Ce. “Drive my car.”
Jiang Ce was surprised. However, he quickly understood the reason because Li Xiwu said, “I’ll take the car behind.”
Jiang Ce couldn’t see the car behind him in the inner mirror on his right, but he could guess who it would be. He unbuckled his seatbelt. “Okay, I’ll drive.”
Li Xiwu pushed open the car door and got out. Jiang Ce walked around the front of the car to her side and got into the driver’s seat. After closing the door, he said to Li Xiwu, “Mrs. Pei, I’ll wait for you and Mr. Pei in the restaurant.”
Li Xiwu nodded. “Okay.”
The car drove away. Li Xiwu turned around and went to the car behind.
Seeing this, Chen Xin got out of the car imdiately and opened the car door for Li Xiwu. “Madam.
Li Xiwu thanked him and bent down to get into the car. Pei Jingzhou looked at her sideways and said in a low voice, “You can pretend that you didn’t see .”
Li Xiwu smiled. “It’s so obvious. If I don’t see it, won’t I be nagged by Mr. Pei for two or three days when I go back?” Her tone was light and her eyes were bright. It was obvious that she was in a good mood. Pei Jingzhou asked softly, “Do I look like soone who can nag?”
Li Xiwu took his arm. “That’s hard to say.”
Pei Jingzhou covered her hand with his palm and held it gently. “Where are you going?”
After Chen Xin received it, he adjusted the navigation and set off. Along the way, Li Xiwu had a lot to tell Pei Jingzhou about what she had chatted with Jiang Ce in the cafe and so of her own thoughts.
Pei Jingzhou could clearly feel so changes after Li Xiwu and Jiang Ce’s conversation. This was probably enlightennt in a sense. After Jiang Ce’s guidance, Li Xiwu opened up all the knots in her heart. Those aningful conversations made her understand a lot of things that she had neglected before.
The car arrived at the restaurant Jiang Ce had booked. Chen Xin parked by the roadside and had no intention of parking in the parking lot.
Li Xiwu turned to look at Pei Jingzhou. “Aren’t you going to eat with ?” Pei Jingzhou shook his head.
Li Xiwu pursed her lips. “You asked Doctor Jiang to contact . After we t, I was the one who talked to him alone. On the way here just now, you only listened to and didn’t ask anything.”
Pei Jingzhou pulled her closer.. “So what are you trying to say?”
