In the Li Family’s villa, Wu Mei came out of her bedroom to find Mother Wu to talk about work. She knocked on the door lightly, but there was no response.
Wu Mei nervously ran to the living room to look for Mother Wu, but she was surprised to find Old Master Li drinking tea and chatting with Mother Wu on the sofa. When they saw Wu Mei appear, they immediately stopped talking. Feeling strange and uneasy, Wu Mei turned to leave, but Mother Wu called out to her.
“Mei’er, sit over here. Mom wants to talk to you.”
Wu Mei forced a smile and sat down beside Mother Wu. When she saw Old Master Li avoiding her gaze, she could roughly guess what the two of them were conspiring about.
As expected, Mother Wu held her hand tightly and said, “I think Li Nanchen is a good child. He also takes good care of you.”
“Mom knows that there was a misunderstanding between the two of you, so you got a divorce. But since he’s willing to be with you again, why don’t you consider remarrying him?”
Mother Wu got straight to the point. Old Master Li was embarrassed by her straightforwardness.
Old Master Li did look for Mother Wu to persuade her to get Wu Mei and Li Nanchen back together. However, he had hoped that Mother Wu would use a tactful method to persuade her…
Feeling a little helpless, Wu Mei explained again, “Mom, Grandpa, let Li Nanchen and I deal with it ourselves, okay?”
“I understand what you’re worried about, but this isn’t the best time. Both of us have many other important things to do.”
With a worried expression, Mother Wu continued to persuade her, “Mei’er, you have to cherish this relationship. No one will always protect you. When Li Nanchen is disappointed in you, or if there are other temptations outside, the two of you won’t be able to go back!”
“Just like Wu Pang and me. We used to have sweet memories, but we became suspicious of each other because of some misunderstandings…”
Mother Wu recalled the memories Wu Pang had told her in the company. She wanted to use her personal experience as advice, but she did not expect Wu Mei to pay attention to it and be on guard.
The effects of the hypnotherapy were very thorough. Mother Wu would never automatically recall any memories of Wu Pang.
Besides, the marriage between Mother Wu and Wu Pang had only brought her pain. Why would she feel pity and reluctance when mentioning it?
Wu Mei pretended to hesitate and probed, “Mom, what else do you remember? Didn’t you forget all of this?”
Mother Wu replied honestly, “Wu Pang has been telling me about the past in the past few days.”
Wu Mei confirmed her speculation. Her lips curled up into a mocking smile as she thought to herself, Wu Pang really knows how to play tricks. He actually dares to have designs on Mother Wu!
She gently led Mother Wu back to the bedroom and comforted her.
Wu Mei fed Mother Wu a small amount of calming medicine. Seeing that Mother Wu was sleeping soundly, she raised her hand to pick up the phone on the bedside table to check.
The phone screen lit up with many unread messages.
Without exception, they were all from Wu Pang. He wanted to ask Mother Wu out to meet him. His words were filled with nostalgia for the past and longing for her.
“I really want to go back to the past with you. Are you willing to give me a chance?”
“Can you come out tonight to the cafe outside the villa?”
Wu Mei was so disgusted by Wu Pang’s words that she wanted to vomit. Her eyes were filled with anger as she gritted her teeth and typed on the screen to reply as Mother Wu.
“Okay, I’ll go over now.”
Wu Mei put the phone on silent mode and quietly left the bedroom for the cafe.
