Chapter 385: Secrets of the Past
Li Mubai smiled: "Li Li, don't forget, to you, all of this is blank, but to me, it's all real. I know exactly when everything happened."
"I know why you left for the third time, so I bet that the photo of the rose was the reason for your third time traveling."
"As for why I am sure that the day you received the photo must have been after the second time travel and before the third time travel, it is because..."
Li Mubai pointed at Jiang Li's right index finger: "It's because of the injury on your right index finger."
"When you traveled through time for the third time, you had a Band-Aid on your heel. That day I saw you on the side of the road going into a convenience store to buy a Band-Aid. The placement and pattern of the Band-Aid were exactly the same as I remembered, so I thought it was time. But I was worried that you didn't have the tools to travel through time, so I sent you the photo to try."
Jiang Li understood: "I see. But, you just said..."
"Did you see me go into a convenience store and buy some Band-Aids?!"
Li Mubai smiled: "Yes. In fact, I have been following you all these years. I traveled through time in 2013, and it took me a long time to find you. Since then, I have been following you often."
Jiang Li's jaw dropped in shock: "You've been following me all this time?!!!"
Li Mubai lifted Jiang Li's surprised chin and said, "Yes."
"I have been staying near you since I found you. If you want to go back to school one day, you can tell me. I bought a house near your school."
"You bought a house near our school? Which school?"
"Ah."
Li Mubai touched his chin a little embarrassedly: "Junior high school, high school, college, all of them."
Over the years, he has been silently guarding her side.
After graduating from high school and entering college, she walked into the campus alone, dragging her suitcase. She and her classmates had a great meal at the food court in front of the school. She smiled as brightly as a flower as she took graduation photos in her bachelor's gown.
He was actually very pleased and proud.
Watching her grow up, watching her get better and better, watching her get closer and closer to me.
Unexpectedly, when Jiang Li heard this, she was not moved but shocked.
"What! So the pervert at the school gate is you!"
For a while, she heard rumors in the school that there was a strange man outside who was always wandering around wearing a hat and a mask. At that time, Jiang Li always felt that someone seemed to be following her. She was so scared that she didn't dare to go to school or go home alone, and had to hold her classmates' hands to walk together.
After hearing what Li Mubai said, Jiang Li finally understood a little. It turned out that the person who had been following her was not a pervert, but Li Mubai!
"Since you found me, why didn't you come out earlier?"
Li Mubai smiled and stroked her hair: "For you, many things have not happened yet. If I suddenly jump out and tell you what we did in the past, or tell you what we will do in the future, wouldn't you think I'm crazy?"
Jiang Li thought about it and laughed out loud: "Yes, I will probably call the police and arrest you as a pervert."
"Actually, there is one thing you don't know."
"what?"
"Do you remember what you said about when you were 12 and went to the park with your dad, and you accidentally fell into the water?"
Jiang Li nodded: "Yes, that year, I went kite chasing...Oh! God!"
Jiang Li suddenly grabbed Li Mubai and said, "My dad said that someone jumped into the lake to save me, but he slipped away before I woke up. That person, could it be you?"
Li Mubai smiled and nodded: "Yes, that person is me. But that time travel was earlier."
At that time, he accidentally went into the water, traveled to the modern era, and saved a drowning girl in the water.
When the girl was rescued to the shore, I saw her eyes and eyebrows.
Li Mubai was also surprised and surprised.
This girl seems to be Jiang Li.
But soon, he couldn't help but put it back on.
It was only after that incident that Li Mubai realized that fate had already arranged everything for him. It was also from that time that he began to deliberately reduce his exposure.
In fact, he didn't know whether all this happened because he first rescued the twelve-year-old Jiang Li who fell into the water, or because Jiang Li traveled to Hong Kong for the first time and picked him up when he was drunk, or because Jiang Li rescued the 10-year-old kidnapped Li Mubai, which led to the subsequent story.
They seemed to be just being pushed forward by time and fate, the threads of time were tangled into a mess and it was impossible to find the end of them.
"then you……"
Jiang Li's phone suddenly rang, and then she said bitterly: "It seems that we can't chat anymore. My mother asked me to go back for dinner."
If it weren't for the guests coming to the house, Jiang Li really didn't want to go home. She still had a lot of questions to ask Li Mubai.
Li Mubai raised his hand and looked at his phone, then nodded and said, "It's time to eat. You can't go hungry no matter what. Let's go. I'll take you back to eat. We'll meet again after you've had dinner. Anyway, now..."
Li Mubai smiled and narrowed his eyes: "There is a long way to go."
Jiang Li was reluctant to leave Li Mubai alone: "What about you?"
Li Mubai said as a matter of course: "I'm going home to eat too!"
"So where do you live now?"
Should I live near her junior high school? Or high school? Or university?
Li Mubai laughed a little embarrassedly and pretended to be suspenseful: "You will know later."
After entering the community, Jiang Li finally understood why Li Mubai was smiling so cunningly. When he pointed to the building opposite their house and said that he lived on the tenth floor opposite, Jiang Li didn't know whether she should be happy, shocked or angry...
“You live across from our house???!!!”
"When did it happen?"
"It's been a long time. It should be the second month after your family bought the house."
"You mean to say that you have been spying on me all these years??!!"
"Hey, how can you say it's peeping?"
Li Mubai said with a "tsk tsk" sound, "This is called guarding."
"Have you ever seen me getting up every day without brushing my teeth, washing my face, or combing my hair?"
"Well, I've also seen you picking your feet while watching TV in the living room."
Jiang Li covered her chest and felt like she was going to die on the spot.
"Don't be so excited. I never look at things I shouldn't look at. I have my bottom line!"
Jiang Li picked up the bag in her hand and threw it at Li Mubaishan in frustration.
"Ahhh! This is so embarrassing! I'm so mad!"
Although Li Mubai is old, he is still nimble and ran up the stairs faster than her.
"Lili, go home and eat to calm down. I'll come back to you after you finish dinner."
Jiang Li was so angry that she went upstairs. As soon as she got upstairs, she remembered that Li Mubai lived in the building opposite her house and might have seen her many times in the past. She was very depressed. She pulled the curtains in the living room and was ready to ignore him no more, even if he shouted at her from below with a small loudspeaker to atone for his sins, she would ignore him.
But it was obvious that Li Mubai was not the kind of person who liked to make noise.
He just kept bombarding Jiang Li with WeChat messages.
Jiang Li was even shocked that he knew her WeChat ID and sent her friend requests over and over again, each request followed by an "I was wrong" or an "I love you".
Jiang Li pretended not to see it and threw the phone aside. It was not until after dinner when everyone went to the living room to rest and drink tea that Jiang Li remembered Li Mubai.
Li Mubai is in the building opposite?
So what is he doing now?
Although no one would see her, Jiang Li still tiptoed to the curtain and then stealthily opened a small hole.
Originally, she just wanted to take a sneak peek, but after just one glance, Jiang Li couldn't help but burst out laughing.
On the window on the tenth floor opposite, Li Mubai wrote and drew with some unknown pen. Probably because it was difficult to write on the reverse side, his handwriting was crooked and ugly, but the words "I was wrong, forgive me" could be vaguely seen. Probably because he felt that his sincerity was not enough, he made a bitter crying face at the end.
In fact, Jiang Li and Li Mubai have lived together for so long that they have seen all kinds of weird things. It’s just that they were exposed actively before, but this time they were exposed passively, which is a little difficult to accept.
Since Li Mubai is so sincere, let's forgive him this time.
Jiang Li happily went back to get her phone, opened WeChat and just clicked "Accept", Li Mubai's message came immediately.
"Have you calmed down?"
"If you're angry, come downstairs quickly. I want to see you."
Jiang Li replied: "No!"
Li Mubai asked: "How long will it take for you to calm down?"
Jiang Li replied: "Half an hour."
Putting down her phone to charge, Jiang Li went back to her room, got her clothes, and went to take a shower.
Li Mubai looked at the words "half an hour" and couldn't bear to put it down for a long time. He didn't know why, but he felt that his phone had become heavier, probably because there was now a person who was most important to him in his phone.
Although Chinese medicine says it's best to take a shower half an hour after a meal, she couldn't wait, she really couldn't. Determined to save her image, Jiang Li took a shower twice, applied body lotion, sprayed perfume, and then chose a small skirt that looked delicate but not too deliberate, saying she was going downstairs for a walk.
Father Jiang was washing dishes in the kitchen. Hearing the words, he stuck his head out of the door and saw his daughter's skirt fluttering by.
"Mom, where did my daughter just say she was going?"
Mother Jiang, who was eating melon seeds with her aunt in the living room, replied, "She said she was going for a walk!"
"Are you sure she meant to go for a walk? She's wearing that and it's obvious she's going to square dance!"
Mother Jiang snorted and disagreed.
"Just square dance. If my daughter were to do it, she would definitely dominate the dance world!"
Father Jiang nodded seriously: "I thought so too!"
Father Jiang retracted his head, and at this time, Jiang Li had already come down, with a stern face, staring at the smiling Li Mubai, playing the role of the evil woman.
Li Mubai was not afraid at all, he took her hand and walked away: "Let's go for a walk to digest the food."
Jiang Li retracted her hand as if she was electrocuted, looked around furtively, and pouted, "Be low-key, there are eyeliners all around here."
Li Mubai smiled: "Okay, then let's go further away."
After walking for a while, they walked out of the community gate and came to the river.
Li Mubai couldn't wait to grab her hand, tightly, tightly.
Li Mubai's hands were warm and large, making her feel safe, a long-lost sense of security.
Just holding hands like this, even without talking, she felt happy.
Jiang Li didn't expect to run into someone she knew just by taking a walk by the river.
When Xu Wen saw Jiang Li, he was immediately delighted, but when he saw there was someone standing next to her, he was suddenly stunned.
She was very surprised, as if she couldn't believe that there was actually a man by Jiang Li's side, and he was such a handsome guy.
Jiang Li was a little embarrassed when she met Xu Wen, but Li Mubai was calmer. He even smiled and took the initiative to extend his hand: "Hello, I'm Jiang Li's fiancé."
fiancé?
Xu Wen stretched out his hand hesitantly, but he always felt something was wrong.
It wasn't until they walked away that I suddenly realized something.
Isn't that man Jiang Li's cousin? How did he become her fiancé?
Is it...
An idea came to my mind and I was shocked.
Is Jiang Li really that brave?
Omg!
Ginger pear!
Did you know that marriage between close relatives will produce fools?
