Chapter 479 Tailan's Past 18

   "Pei Jingzhou!"

   When Li You could see Pei Jingzhou's figure, the haze above his head disappeared, and he put his bag on his arm, quickened his pace and ran towards Pei Jingzhou's direction.

  She ran to Pei Jingzhou and stopped, panting.

  Pei Jingzhou stretched out his hand to straighten the bangs on her forehead that were blown by the wind, deliberately joking: "I haven't seen you for two days, so you miss me so much?"

  Li You looked sullen, and threw himself into Pei Jingzhou's arms and hugged him: "Pei Jingzhou, I'm in a bad mood."

  Pei Jingzhou's slowly raised hand froze, all the words of concern were on his lips but he didn't ask a word, it was inappropriate to stand here and speak. He took her hand: "Get in the car first."

   She obediently followed Pei Jingzhou into the car.

  In Country T, Pei Jingzhou drives by himself, and Li You sits in the co-pilot. Pei Jingzhou adjusts the route to go to the hotel where he stays every time.

   Along the way, Li You told Pei Jingzhou all his suspicions and conjectures.

   After finishing speaking, she asked, "Do you also think that I am just thinking wildly?"

  There was a traffic light ahead, the car stopped slowly, Pei Jingzhou looked sideways at her: "You are worried that your mother is not wrong, this is not just wishful thinking, and, don't you always trust your intuition?"

  This sentence awakened Li You.

  Yeah, she has always trusted her instincts.

  But this time, she was convincing herself that it was an illusion of her own imagination.

  Pei Jingzhou re-adjusted the navigation, and the destination was Li You's address: "I didn't know what happened just now. Now that I know the general situation, it's better to go back to your home first."

  Li You nodded: "Alright, before I came out of the consulate, I called my mother, and she said she was at home."

  Pei Jingzhou: "It's good that my aunt is at home. You can feel at ease when you go back and see her later."

   These words are also comforting Li You.

  After a ten-minute drive, the car arrived at Li You's home.

  Pei Jingzhou parked the car, got out of the car and went in with Li You.

  Just walked into the community, when he saw the pitch-black two-story windows, the expression on Li You's face suddenly collapsed: "Pei Jingzhou, there is no one in my family."

  Pei Jingzhou naturally saw it too.

  Li You took out her mobile phone and called Li's father, but Li's father didn't answer, so she called Li's mother again, and the system voice directly told her that the other party was temporarily unable to answer the phone.

   Li You was obviously in a hurry.

  Before she came out of the consulate, she called her mother. At that time, her mother answered her call and said she was at home, but when she called again now, no one answered the phone.

   Her anxious face turned pale.

  Pacing back and forth on my feet, eagerly and repeatedly calling my mother's phone number.

  Pei Jingzhou held her arm, stopped her from pacing back and forth, and softly comforted her anxious mood at this moment: "Don't worry, uncle and aunt probably have something to do, and they can't answer the phone for the time being."

   "It's best to be like this, but... When I called my mother more than ten minutes ago, my mother still answered my call..." Li You almost cried out.

   And at this time.

  After she made five or six calls that no one answered, Li You received a call back from her father.

  Seeing the word "Dad" on the caller ID, the big stone on Li You's heart suddenly lightened, and when she answered the phone, she suppressed the crying sound: "Dad..."

  Li Huaisheng's tired voice came from the phone: "Xiaoyou, don't worry, your mother is fine, I'll be by her side."

  For Li You who doesn't know anything yet, Li You's father's words undoubtedly confused Li You. She hesitated and asked, "...what's wrong with mom?"

  Li Huaisheng didn't want to tell Li You the cruel truth on the phone, so he only said the address of the hospital in the end.

  After hanging up the phone, Li You was so dazed that the phone almost fell to the ground.

Pei Jingzhou didn't hear the conversation between Li You and her father, so he picked up the mobile phone that almost dropped for her, and gently held her in his arms: "Don't think about the bad, remember that you often mentioned Murphy's Law to me? The more you think about bad things, the more bad things will happen, don't think about those bad things, now do you want to stay at home and wait for them to come back, or do you need to go somewhere?"

  Li You's eyes were red, and she pressed her forehead to Pei Jingzhou's arms: "Mom is in the hospital."

  Pei Jingzhou lightly embraced her back: "Since uncle told you that your aunt is in the hospital, he should have told you the address of the hospital. Then do you want to go to the hospital or stay at home and wait for them to come back?"

  Li You replied firmly: "Go to the hospital."

  Pei Jingzhou promised her: "Okay, let's go now."

-

   On the way to the hospital, Li You was very silent, hardly saying a word.

  She thought about what Pei Jingzhou reminded her, don't think about those bad things, the more you think about it, the more likely it will happen, why don't you calm down and wait until the hospital to see your mother.

  Pei Jingzhou did not drive very fast, and arrived at the hospital at a constant speed.

  Before getting off the car, Pei Jingzhou received a call.

  Seeing the caller ID, Pei Jingzhou took a look at Li You. Li You is very emotional now, and Pei Jingzhou guessed that the call should be from her father just by looking at her.

   She did guess right.

   It was her father calling.

  She subconsciously looked at her phone, it was not turned off, and the signal was good. But when Dad called Pei Jingzhou alone at this time, he must have something to tell Pei Jingzhou alone, avoid her, and not let her hear it.

  Li You suppressed the urge to take the phone from Pei Jingzhou's hand, and said softly, "Go ahead."

  Pei Jingzhou hummed, and answered Li's father's call in front of Li You.

  Li You didn't deliberately want to listen to what her father said to Pei Jingzhou, but only paid attention to Pei Jingzhou's expression, but unfortunately Pei Jingzhou's expression was always restrained, and she couldn't see any changes.

   Until the end of the call, Pei Jingzhou put away the phone, and said under Li You's eager gaze of wanting to know the content of the call: "Uncle told me the ward number."

  Li You's throat choked: "...Is there nothing else?"

   Pei Jingzhou looked at her who was eager to know, and suppressed the soft part: "There is nothing else."

  Li You didn't ask any more questions.

She was still very quiet on the way in. She didn't ask Pei Jingzhou all the time, and walked beside him obediently until she reached the floor where her mother was hospitalized. In the long corridor, she saw just Li's father, who was haggard without seeing him all afternoon.

  The distance in the middle is still far away.

  She was stunned for a long time before she called out: "Dad."

  Li Huaisheng heard Li You's voice, and looked sideways.

  He seemed to have been waiting there for a long time, until the moment Li You appeared, a very difficult smile appeared on his face, but in Li You's view, it was a smile uglier than crying.

"dad."

"dad…"

  She cried heavily, she let go of Pei Jingzhou's hand, and walked towards Father Li while sobbing.

  She had grievances written all over her face, and her mouth was almost pouted, just like when she was wronged when she was a child and went to her father for support, she walked up to her father crying and twitching.

  When she approached Li's father, she hadn't cried out why she hadn't answered the phone after calling so many times, but the words were on her lips, and she choked up.

  Because she saw the mother lying on the bed wearing a ventilator in the ward through the glass on the door of the ward.
