Li Tongxi's heart suddenly softened. She walked past Shi Lei, squatted down and took out a tea set and a tea box from the cupboard, then walked towards the balcony.

Shi Lei laughed, and followed Li Tongxi to the balcony.

It was winter in the capital, and the weather was getting cooler. Although the stars were shining brightly outside, it was impossible to breathe the fresh air.

The balcony was sealed with transparent glass and the heating in the room was on full blast. Even if Li Tongxi was wearing light pajamas, she would not feel cold.

Li Tongxi's brewing posture was still as practiced and graceful as before. Her face did not reveal any expression of joy, but instead, there was an expression of infatuation. It was unknown whether she was infatuated with the Way of Tea or with this warm feeling of being alone with Shi Lei.

Shi Lei picked up the tea that Li Tongxi had sent over, and sniffed it, then laughed: "It smells so good. It's been a long time since I've had your tea. "

Li Tongxi drank her tea and did not reply.

Shi Lei knew that it was due to his personality, so he did not mind. How many men could he find who could sit opposite of Li Tongxi and drink her fragrant tea?

"What were you doing?" Shi Lei asked.

"Reading."

"Reading books?" I like to read, too. What book are you reading? " Shi Lei finally found a topic to talk about, and quickly refused to let go.

She did not chase after celebrities, did not care about fashion, did not buy the latest LV bag, and besides growing flowers, she also did not have any special hobbies … It was not a simple matter to communicate with her.

Li Tongxi was quiet again. Evidently, she did not tell Shi Lei what kind of book she was reading.

With his sharp eyes, Shi Lei immediately noticed the book on the bedside table that she had laid open. He stood up and quickly ran over to get it.

"It's actually a book of poems." Shi Lei said with a smile. Very few people could read poetry these days. Especially reading foreign poets.

Shi Lei flipped open the folding page, right at the place where Li Tongxi was reading.

When he was preparing for the impassioned recitation, he was stupefied by the words written on it.

All in English!

Shi Lei laughed awkwardly, and said: "You're way too knowledgeable. They're all books that others don't understand. "

Li Tongxi glanced at Shi Lei and said: "There's a translation at the end." She knew that Shi Lei did not understand English.

Shi Lei flipped to the next page, and sure enough, there was a Chinese translation.

Shi Lei quickly skimmed through it, and after seeing that there were no words he could not read, he finally spoke:

"That year, Hua had passed away. Your temples had turned white, and you looked like you were about to fall asleep.

Sit by the fire and doze off. Take this book of my poems,

Read slowly, as if in a dream, and you will relive

Your eyesight has always been filled with love and gentleness. "

"Stop reciting it." Li Tongxi said.

"I think it's pretty good." Shi Lei said with a smile. Previously, he only had the thought of showing off, but when he truly read the poem, he found the mood to be even more beautiful.

"How many people have loved your radiant charm,

Love your beautiful face. Be it sincere or just for show.

But there was only one person! He loves your holy and pious heart!

When you wash away all your beauty and have passed away from old age, he will still love you deeply! "

"Stop reciting it." Li Tongxi said again. The voice rose a little.

"The fire in the furnace is warm and bright. Please lower your head slightly,

With a faint sadness, he muttered to himself for the sake of his withering and dying love …

At this moment, he was wandering alone among the mountains and valleys.

The face is hidden behind the stars that stare at you. "

After reading, Shi Lei became enthralled and said, "Your writing is really good. Unfortunately, I don't know how to write poems. "

Then, he smiled and said, "Tongxi, once you become old, I will definitely not write you a poem. I can treat your illness. Even the elderly are not in good health, I promise to take care of you until your face is red and healthy. "

The emotion that Li Tongxi had suppressed for a long time finally erupted. She smashed the teacup in her hand onto the tea table, stared angrily at Shi Lei, and shouted with all her might: "Why are you always like this? Why are you always like this? "

What kind of man is most detestable to women?

Just when he was about to drive you crazy with that feeling of emptiness that makes you want to die, he suddenly got up from you and said, 'I suddenly remember that I have a very important matter to take care of. Let's continue tomorrow. "

To Li Tongxi, Shi Lei was such a man.

Of course. This was referring to their relationship. Not physical desire.

Li Tongxi had been hurt emotionally, so she was especially sensitive to emotions. After she escaped from America, she had completely given up on her relationship.

He also didn't receive timely consolation and guidance, resulting in internal depression and disease, which developed into 'misogyny'. In her mind, all men were hypocritical swindlers. When they saw men, they couldn't help but distance themselves from them, treating them coldly or even in disgust.

Especially towards those pursuers, it gave her a feeling of ulterior motives. The more people tried to get close to her, the more astute she was, and the more intense her counterattacks would be.

She knew she was sick. The people around her knew she was sick. However, there was nothing they could do.

Shi Lei was an exception. He approached Li Tongxi as a doctor.

The first time they met, Li Tongxi was also extremely hostile to Shi Lei. However, Shi Lei's slightly overbearing attack, as well as Xiao Shi's persuasive power, had finally opened her heart. She was also willing to cooperate with Shi Lei's treatment.

Actually, for mental illness, as long as they were willing to accept treatment, their condition could be considered to be almost half better. The other half depended on the doctor's skill and time to forget.

Under Shi Lei's treatment, Li Tongxi recovered extremely quickly. She could talk with the people around her, and even smile at Shi Lei … Although she didn't want to get too close to her colleagues, that was because her lifestyle these years had already been fixed and she couldn't change it in a short period of time.

In the process of treating the illness, it was inevitable that the touch between the two people would be unavoidable. If it was any other woman, it might not be worth mentioning. But to Li Tongxi, a twenty-seven-year-old old spinster, it made circles after circles of ripples in her heart.

There is a drawback in treating anomia. If there is no outlet for emotion, it is very likely that the patient will transfer his pent-up emotions to the attending physician.

That feeling came suddenly and ferociously, impossible to guard against.

If Shi Lei and Li Tongxi maintained a good relationship, and could walk together in love together … Li Tongxi's condition would recover smoothly, and he might even be able to recover to his previous state.

However, just when their relationship was at its most delicate stage, Xiu Hao suddenly returned home and that kind of misunderstanding happened at the Western Restaurant.
