Chapter 110: A clear mind is like water, and clear water is the mind
Li Yanjing felt like something was wrong, but couldn't put his finger on it. He nodded and said, "Okay."
He paused, then continued, "Then why did he say he liked me?"
"You are his biological son, how can he not like you?" Li Zhi replied.
"Like this." Li Yanjing said.
"Yeah." Li Zhi responded.
As soon as she finished speaking, the cell phone in her pocket suddenly rang.
Li Zhi reached out and took out her cell phone, lowered her eyes to look at the screen, and saw that Xie Tingzhou had sent her a message.
[Pei Yuanzhi asked me to ask you something. He's planning to have a drinking party to celebrate your full recovery. Can you come out tonight?]
Li Zhi had been reborn into this body for so long, but she had never gone out to play at night. She was in the mood, so she said, "Okay, send me your location when the time comes."
Xie Tingzhou: [I'll pick you up later, it's on my way.]
Li Zhi: [By the way, who are they? ]
Xie Tingzhou: [If nothing unexpected happens, it will be just the three of us. If you want something more lively, I'll have him call more people.]
Li Zhi's eyes flickered slightly. "It would be so boring with just the three of us. You can ask him to recruit more people. Maybe I can develop some business and make some money."
Xie Tingzhou looked at the message she sent, and a hint of smile appeared in his eyes as thick as the sea.
It can be said that she is dedicated to her work. She never forgets to tell people's fortunes even when she goes out to play.
[Okay, I'll tell him.]
Li Zhi put away her phone, lowered her eyes to look at Li Yanjing standing in front of her, and said, "I'm going out tonight, you just stay home and behave yourself."
"Where are we going?" Li Yanjing asked.
"Let's go out for a drink." Li Zhi replied.
"I want to go too." said Li Yanjing.
Li Zhi raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, "Children can't drink alcohol, what are you doing there?"
"Why can't I go if I don't drink? I can drink beverages." Li Yanjing retorted.
"Who are you going drinking with?" he asked again.
Li Zhi yawned, looking a little lazy. "With your dad and his friends."
Li Yanjing bit her lip. "Didn't he ask you to take me with you?"
Li Zhi raised her finger and shook it, "No, he must have the same idea as me."
She paused and continued, "Besides, you're not alone at home. Your uncle and Xianyue can play with you."
"By the way, there's little milk tea to keep you company."
"Okay." Li Yanjing no longer insisted and couldn't help but remind him, "Then come back early, don't play too late, and don't drink too much."
Li Zhi nodded, "Okay, I know, don't worry."
…
Eight o'clock in the evening.
Xie Tingzhou drove to Gu's house, picked up Li Zhi, and the two went directly to the place where they were drinking.
Li Zhi fastened her seatbelt, turned to look at the man in the driver's seat, and asked, "What did you say to your son when you were with him to bed this afternoon? He seems to be quite concerned about you now?"
Xie Tingzhou raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, "Why do you care about me?"
"I'll look for you after I wake up." Li Zhi said.
Xie Tingzhou raised the corner of his lip and said, "He didn't say anything. He just asked me a few questions."
"Hmm?" Li Zhi asked, "What's the problem?"
"Ask me how I reacted when I learned of his existence, and what I was thinking when I first saw him in the hospital..."
Seeing the red light at the intersection ahead, Xie Tingzhou slowly stopped the car and turned to look at her.
The streetlights outside illuminated his face, which was half bright and half dark. A stream of light seemed to flow through the depths of his eyes, which were as thick as the sea. He slowly said, "And whether I like you or not."
Li Zhi met his eyes, her heart skipping a beat. She ignored the strange sensation in her body and said, "I know the third one. He told me that you like me."
Xie Tingzhou's clear eyebrows and eyes moved, "What do you think?"
"What do you mean?" Li Zhi asked.
"What do you think about the fact that I like you?" Xie Tingzhou said.
Li Zhi tilted her head, her dark eyes flickering as she said matter-of-factly, "You're my fan. Isn't it normal for you to like me?"
Xie Tingzhou's eyelids twitched, and he found that she was very insightful about everything, but her reaction to emotions was a little slow.
He noticed from the corner of his eye that the red light had turned green, and immediately started the car and turned left onto another road, then pulled the car over to the side of the road and stopped.
Xie Tingzhou turned his head and looked at Li Zhi again, his deep eyes gazing at her, "What if we put aside our fan identity?"
"Let's put aside your fan identity?" Li Zhi touched her chin with her jade-like fingers, her eyelashes fluttering. "You are my son's father. If you like my son, you will naturally like me too."
Xie Tingzhou couldn't help but laugh out loud, and continued to guide, "What if you put aside this identity?"
Li Zhi frowned, "That's all."
Xie Tingzhou guessed she would say that, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Miss Li, have you forgotten that you have a fiancé?"
“…”
Li Zhi nodded, "I remember now."
Xie Tingzhou looked at her with eyes as dark as black inkstone, clinging to her tightly, with a gentle and shimmering look, as if luring her closer. "So my liking for you is not just the kind of liking a fan has for a streamer, but also a love between a man and a woman. Do you understand what I mean?"
He was afraid that if he didn't explain it clearly, her misunderstanding would get deeper and deeper, and she would just treat him as a fan, just like she treated Pei Yuanzhi and the others, with no other thoughts.
Even if Li Zhi was slow in emotions, how could she not understand when the other party said it so bluntly and at such a level?
Being stared at by Xie Tingzhou, her heartbeat gradually accelerated, her body seemed to be frozen and unable to move, and her mouth was inexplicably dry.
Li Zhi swallowed and couldn't help but wonder if this vixen had cast some kind of charm on her that caused her body to suddenly become so abnormal.
Could it be that his skills were too profound, and even I couldn't see through his magic, and thus fell into his trap?
Li Zhi was so lost in thought that she completely forgot to answer what Xie Tingzhou said.
Xie Tingzhou saw her staring at him blankly, not knowing whether she had understood what he had just said, so he spoke again, "Speak, Zhizhi."
Li Zhi came back to her senses and looked away vaguely. She felt that if she continued to look at him, she might not be able to help but pounce on him and do something uncontrollable.
I couldn't help but recite the Heart Purification Technique in my mind.
A pure heart is like water, and pure water is the heart...
"Hmm? What?"
Xie Tingzhou sighed softly, a hint of helplessness flashing across his eyes, "Did you hear everything I just said?"
"I heard it." Li Zhi replied.
"Then you don't have anything to say?" Xie Tingzhou asked.
“Uh…” Li Zhi was speechless.
Xie Tingzhou's eyes darkened. "Why aren't you looking at me?"
Li Zhi found that the Qingxin Jue was completely useless. She scratched her hair in frustration, looked back at him, and asked seriously, "Is your true form the ancient Qingqiu Nine-tailed Fox?"
Otherwise, how could I not see through his illusion.
