The way Zhou Li looked at the ground combined with his tone made him look even more aggrieved and disappointed. For a moment, Yuan Ye was stunned.
This was the first time he saw Zhou Li like this.
Yuan Ye knew before that Zhou Li was inexperienced in relationships, but he didn't expect it to reach this level.
Yuan Ye: "She doesn't have any romantic feelings for me."
With his rich experience, it is not difficult to judge this matter. "If you don't dig into it, you will find that she treats me the same as she treats Liangliang and Qinyang."
Zhou Li raised his eyes and looked at Yuanye.
Yuanye saw doubts in Zhou Li's eyes. He probably wanted to ask Jiang Mingzhu why he didn't treat him like this.
Yuanye had already given the answer before he asked: "Actually, she is a very simple person. How you treat her, she will treat you."
Yuan Ye knew very well that Jiang Mingzhu had no good impression of him before. When she first approached Zhou Li, Yuan Ye and Xu Siyan had almost the same idea, thinking that she was unkind and had a suspicious identity.
Later, they got closer because of the "pretending to be a girlfriend" incident in the hospital. Yuan Ye got to know Jiang Mingzhu better and better, and Jiang Mingzhu gradually lowered her guard against him.
Although Jiang Mingzhu never confessed those secrets to him, but putting this aside, she was really good to him.
The same goes for Fu Xiaozhi.
Jiang Mingzhu initially approached Fu Xiaozhi with the mentality of taking advantage, but if Fu Xiaozhi treated her well, she would be sincere.
"If you didn't treat her like this, she would treat you the same way she treated Zhizhi and me." Yuanye didn't doubt this at all.
Zhou Li remained silent and didn't speak, seemingly thinking about Yuan Ye's words.
After a long time, Zhou Li asked Yuanye: "What do you mean by helping her come out?"
When Zhou Li finished asking this question, Gu Shu happened to walk out of the yard.
Yuan Ye met Gu Shu in the morning. When he saw her coming out, he greeted her first and introduced Zhou Li: "This is Aunt Gu, Zhu Zhu's psychiatrist."
Zhou Li looked at Gu Shu and nodded to her: "Hello."
Gu Shu recognized Zhou Li: "Hello."
Zhou Li: "Is she okay?"
Gu Shu: "I'm just here to talk to you about this."
Zhou Li pursed his lips.
Gu Shu: "Her brother's departure hit her hard. She has been in self-isolation since then, and her condition has never gotten better. Her mother must have talked to you that day."
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
What he wants to know more now is the solution given by the psychiatrist.
Gu Shu: "She has very complicated feelings towards her brother Pei Ye."
After hearing these words, Zhou Li's heart twitched hard again.
Then the photo of Jiang Mingzhu and Pei Yegu appeared in his mind, the scene of Jiang Mingzhu crying while staring at the photo in the orphanage, and the days when she was locked up in Yuanyin Villa and babbled in her sleep.
She will do anything for Pei Yegu. Even if she keeps saying that there is no love between men and women, it is hard to believe.
Hearing this sentence from Gu Shu's mouth was more like the final word for Zhou Li.
His throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't make a sound after brewing for a long time.
Gu Shu: "She has no experience in relationships between men and women, and maybe she doesn't know what love is, but I guess they will get together if nothing happens to Pei Ye."
"Ever since she was little, her brother has been her spiritual support for survival. Now she is stuck in the quagmire and unwilling to save herself. She needs someone to pull her out and give her the faith to continue living." Gu Shu's voice was calm and sweet. Come on.
Zhou Li's eyes swept over Yuanye, and when he spoke, his voice was as hoarse as if he had sand in his mouth.
"The person you are looking for...is he?"
Gu Shu: "Yes."
She nodded under Zhou Li's gaze, "But we are just trying, because she said that getting along with Yuanye is like getting along with an elder brother. But now everyone
We won't give up if there's even a small chance. "
Zhou etiquette is like a lump in the throat.
Every word Gu Shu said made sense.
Nothing is more important than keeping Jiang Mingzhu alive.
But he wasn't the one who had any hope of pulling her out of the mire.
After Gu Shu finished speaking, she went back first, and Zhou Li and Yuanye were left at the door.
Dusk has arrived, and the sky is dyed blood red by the sunset and the afterglow of the setting sun.
Zhou Li's expression was a little scary.
Yuanye tentatively called him, "Fourth Brother."
Zhou Li turned his eyes to him: "You agreed."
Yuanye: "Yes, I agree."
Zhou Li: "Be her substitute for Pei Ye."
Yuan Ye: "That's not the point. Getting her to get over the past is the top priority."
Zhou Li: "Don't you care?"
Yuan Ye: "Maybe this is the difference between you and me."
Yuanye knew what Zhou Li cared about. He was so proud that he couldn't even accept Jiang Mingzhu using him, let alone being a substitute.
Zhou Li has never loved anyone before. His demands for relationships are supreme and even picky. It is precisely because he is too demanding that he and Jiang Mingzhu have come to this point.
But Yuanye is different: "It's good to have answers to some questions in your mind. There is no need to dig into the details. Knowing too much will only make you unhappy. There is no absolute fairness in relationships. Fourth brother, you want too much."
Zhou Li: "Why do you like her?"
Yuan Ye was asked by Zhou Li and made him think for a few seconds. Then he smiled and said, "Maybe it started out of curiosity."
Curiosity, sympathy, and then being attracted to her character in the process of getting along with her are probably this process.
Zhou Li: "If she falls in love with someone else in the future——"
"Then I'll let her like her, as long as she's happy." Yuanye took Zhou Li's words and said, "If I'm so nice to her and she still likes someone else, it means that person knows better what she needs."
Yuanye doesn't have Zhou Li's obsession with relationships, and he won't be as aggressive as he is.
In other words, he is thick-skinned and will not feel ashamed even if his efforts are unrewarded.
After Zhou Li heard this, his first thought was that he could never do that in his life.
Zhou Li didn't answer Yuanye's words and turned around and walked into the courtyard.
——
After Jiang Mingzhu saw Zhou Li come in, she paused in her drinking water.
Zhou Li saw this detail clearly.
He endured the pain in his heart, turned his eyes to Zheng Lin and said, "I have something to talk to you about."
Zheng Linxu nodded and took Zhou Li to the terrace. It happened that he also had something to talk to Zhou Li.
After sitting down, Zhou Li asked Zheng Linxu: "Is there no other way to treat her illness?"
Zheng Linxu: "The experts I contacted are doing analysis."
Zhou Li: "Don't you see it?"
Zheng Lin said: "Ye Yu didn't want her to go to Zhan Yubai. Pian Pian was pregnant at that time, and I didn't want her to interact with the Zhou family. But she was relatively resistant to treatment at first, so I told her that she could consider getting good treatment. Let’s help her find evidence.”
Zhou Li's breathing was a little rough.
Jiang Mingzhu has such a deep obsession with Pei Ye, and his kidney is with Jin Rou.
He felt unprecedented powerlessness and despair.
