I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law

  On the way back to Luhu Lake, Li Xiwu's distraught appearance was so obvious that she realized it herself, but Pei Jingzhou never asked her a word.

  The car arrived at Luhu Lake.

  She accompanied Pei Jingzhou to the elevator upstairs.

  Open the door and enter the house, but there is no light, which proves that the aunt is not here today.

  Li Xiwu took out his mobile phone from his bag: "I'll ask Auntie to come over and cook."

  Pei Jingzhou said: "I will do it."

  He put his phone on the cabinet in the entrance, turned around and asked her, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

   Li Xiwu looked at him and asked, "Aren't you tired?"

  Pei Jingzhou answered her: "I'm not tired."

  Li Xiwu was silent, and Pei Jingzhou leaned his hand over Li Xiwu's back naturally: "Go in."

  Li Xiwu replied yes, and went back to the bedroom with her bag, Pei Jingzhou also followed, took off her coat and went out again, never mentioning another topic.

   Li Xiwu actually wanted Pei Jingzhou to ask her.

   Now the more he doesn't ask anything, the more guilty and uneasy she feels. She always wants to say something, but she can't find a suitable topic to start with.

  Thinking about it carefully, even if she found the starting point of the topic, what should she say?

   When she said she went to see Gu Lan today?

   Said that she learned that she probably had a daughter with someone else in her early years?

   Said she might have betrayed his feelings?

  Which sentence can you say?

  Can't say a word.

  She was depressed and painful in her heart, feeling depressed and alone, and she told herself that it would be fine when tomorrow was over.

  But if Youyou is really her daughter, how will she deal with Pei Jingzhou in the future...

   Her mind was in a mess, and the wash basin in front of her was filled with water, which overflowed and dripped on the floor before she realized it after a while.

  She turned off the water and looked in the mirror in front of her.

  Suddenly felt that she looked very strange now.

-

  She came out of the bedroom.

   There was no sign of Pei Jingzhou in the living room. Knowing that he was in the kitchen, Li Xiwu took a half step and walked towards the kitchen.

  The ingredients were put in the refrigerator by my aunt during the day, and Pei Jingzhou mixed them a little bit. It seems that it is two dishes and one soup.

  The soup was simmering in the stewing pot, and a hot dish was also cooked in the pot. Pei Jingzhou stood in front of the sink and washed the dish he had just chosen. He was wearing a white shirt, an apron, and the cuffs were rolled up on his small arms. He was focused and serious while washing the vegetables.

   Such a high-ranking person, who washes his hands and makes soup for her, is willing to do so because he loves her...

   Li Xiwu stood quietly by the side for a long time, until Pei Jingzhou discovered her existence.

  He put the washed vegetables on the rack to drain, and asked her, "Are you hungry?"

  Li Xiwu pursed his lips: "No."

  Pei Jingzhou raised his eyes and looked at her: "Usually when I cook, you always stay as far away as possible, why are you here to guard today?"

  His reminder reminded Li Xiwu of how far away he was every time Pei Jingzhou cooked the dishes. She doesn't like cooking at home, especially in front of Pei Jingzhou, because she is afraid that he will ask her to accompany him, so she avoids it every time.

  She smiled: "It's boring anyway."

  Pei Jingzhou took the garlic and put it on the cutting board, and casually asked: "Did you encounter problems when you returned to work on the first day after the show?"

  Li Xiwu said softly: "There are a lot of things on hand, and some of them are quite troublesome."

  Pei Jingzhou turned around and stir-fried the hot dishes in the pot, put them on a plate, brought the hot dishes over, and took a pair of chopsticks by the way: "Taste and see how it tastes."

  Li Xiwu: "Huh?"

  Pei Jingzhou: "When the taste buds feel the excellent delicacy, they will relax physically and mentally, and they will not think about the troublesome things for a while."

  Li Xiwu frowned: "Excellent delicacy?"

  Pei Jingzhou: "I have always been confident in my cooking skills."

   Li Xiwu reached out to take the chopsticks: "Then I want to try it."

  This hot dish is braised pork ribs in sauce. The taste is really not to be pickled.

   "Usually, at least one person in a family can cook." Li Xiwu put down his chopsticks: "There are two people in our family."

  Pei Jingzhou: "Where are there two?"

  Li Xiwu: "Huh?"

  Pei Jingzhou: "Isn't it just me?"

  Li Xiwu pursed his lips and smiled, reminiscing about the braised pork ribs just now: "Fourth brother's cooking skills can be passed on in the future."

   "I think so too." Pei Jingzhou came over after washing his hands, picked up the pair of chopsticks that Li Xiwu used just now, took a chopstick and tasted it: "Not bad, allow me to boast?"

  Li Xiwu: "You don't need to brag, I'll brag, the fourth brother's cooking skills are very good, eat it once, and the aftertaste will be poor."

  Pei Jingzhou bent the corners of his lips: "From then on we will adopt a child, and when he is ten years old, I will start teaching him to cook."

   "Is ten years old too early?" Li Xiwu asked without thinking.

  Pei Jingzhou's tone was serious: "If you adopt a daughter, then you don't need to teach it. The first test your son-in-law passes in the future is cooking, and I will personally check it."

   Li Xiwu thinks it will work.

   At this time, the atmosphere is just right.

  After the dishes were ready and served, Pei Jingzhou opened a bottle of red wine.

  Even though Pei Jingzhou controlled the amount of alcohol, Li Xiwu still drank more.

  She doesn't drink well, but Pei Jingzhou drank more than her, but he was too sober.

   Unlike Li Xiwu, after drinking and eating, he is already slightly tipsy.

  Pei Jingzhou combed her long hair and let it flow down, his long arms hooked her waist down, hugged her horizontally and put her on the sofa: "Lie down for a while, I'll clean it up."

  Li Xiwu's bracelet remained on Pei Jingzhou's neck, and he called his name softly: "Pei Jingzhou."

  Pei Jingzhou replied yes, then bowed his head and kissed her forehead.

  The sofa is very soft, Li Xiwu's weak and boneless half body is sunk in it, and Pei Jingzhou is lying on top of her.

  She raised her eyes and looked at him. Pei Jingzhou's brows and eyes were gentle, and there seemed to be a faint smile on the corners of his lips. He asked her, "Drunk?"

   Li Xiwu loosened his hand slowly: "I'm not drunk, I'm sober."

  The smile on the corner of Pei Jingzhou's lips gradually deepened: "Then you see whether my eyes are open or closed."

   Li Xiwu looked carefully.

   After staring at each other for a moment, they realized that they put their hands on his chest and pushed him lightly, and murmured, "Go away."

  Pei Jingzhou got up with a smile, rolled up her cuffs and rubbed her hair first, then turned to clear the dining table.

   Li Xiwu was distracted on the sofa, and she didn't know how long she had been distracted. The position around her collapsed slightly, and she didn't need to look sideways to know that it was Pei Jingzhou.

  Her hand climbed over, Pei Jingzhou caught her outstretched hand, and leaned closer to her: "Sleepy?"

  Li Xi said in a low voice, "A little bit."

  Pei Jingzhou also stretched out his other hand, wrapping around her waist: "Then I'll take you back to the bedroom to sleep?"

  Li Xiwu shook her head: "I'm a little sleepy, but I can't fall asleep."

   As she spoke, she used her strength to slowly get up, and leaned towards Pei Jingzhou. The moment she leaned over, Pei Jingzhou's arm was lifted up, allowing her to lean more comfortably.

  Li Xiwu felt relieved when he smelled his body, put his arms around his waist unconsciously, and whispered softly: "Pei Jingzhou, I'm sorry..."
