"Be calm, don't let the baby remember this, help me change her memory."
"Qing, calm down. How long are you going to keep this from her?" Deng Congrong put his hand on Xia Qingxue's shoulder. "Xia is at the age of enlightenment. She should understand our world and know the wickedness of people's hearts."
“I don’t want to! You know, the baby isn’t subject to the seven-day time limit in this instance. She belongs to this instance, and she can live here.”
Xia Qingxue lost her composure. She was no longer organized or calm. She broke free from Deng Congrong's hand, grabbed Deng Congrong's hand in return, and said sternly, "This instance is very safe. I want her to live here forever and help me."
Deng Congrong's furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and she sighed, "Fine, I'll help you, just this once. But you really need to think carefully about why you gave birth to her in the first place."
Xia Qingxue pursed her lips and remained silent.
Deng Congrong placed her hand on Xia Chuhe's forehead and said softly, "At least think about what the new memory is, right?"
Deng Congrong can use fabricated new memories to cover up new memories, but the premise is that the beginning and end of the new memory must be related to the old memory to a certain extent.
“The baby wanted to eat cake, so the new chef made a cake for her, but an accident happened. The kitchen caught fire, and the chef was burned to death,” Xia Qingxue said.
"You're so poor, where would you get the money to hire a chef?" Deng Congrong was both amused and annoyed.
"It will be ready soon," Xia Qingxue said.
Deng Congrong rolled her eyes and used Xia Qingxue's fabricated memories to cover up Xia Chuhe's real memories.
While using his superpower, Deng Congrong couldn't help but glance at Xia Qingxue—he really wanted to use his superpower on Xia Qingxue and turn her back into the fearless, impetuous girl she once was, willing to give everything for her ideals and the organization.
Deng Congrong disliked Xia Qingxue as her mother.
...
The watch flashed, and Xia Chuhe was taken to an amusement park.
The amusement park has a water feature with a bridge floating on the water. When people walk across the bridge, the water flows up to their feet. At the same time, the swaying bridge creates the illusion that pedestrians might fall into the river at any moment.
Upon seeing this bridge, Xia Chuhe knew what was about to happen—it was during her junior high school years, and her family's driver was taking her to an amusement park when the ropes on both sides of the bridge snapped, causing her and the driver to fall into the water. She was rescued, but the driver died.
So, is this memory real?
Xia Chuhe could no longer distinguish which things were true and which were false.
Mom, do you love her?
To answer this question—
Before going to university, Xia Chuhe would say without hesitation, "Of course my mother loves me."
After starting university, Xia Chuhe would say with some hesitation, "My mother loves obedient daughters. If I listen to her, she will definitely love me."
Before time travel, Xia Chuhe, who had achieved some success at work, would say, "She only has one daughter, me, and my mother loves me."
After transmigrating, Xia Chuhe, having learned part of the truth from the butler, would say, "Perhaps, I don't know, I don't really care about it right now."
However, in reality, Xia Chuhe cared too much, so much that he dared not think about it deeply.
Whether it's an imposter sent down from above or a fake mother created from memories in a loveless hell, they're all telling the same story over and over again—
Xia Chuhe cared too much about Xia Qingxue, about Xia Qingxue's attitude towards her, and about whether Xia Qingxue loved her.
because--
Xia Chuhe had to admit this fact—
She loves her mother and has a deep attachment to her.
Whether in the modern world or the wasteland, Xia Qingxue is naturally the person closest to her, and someone that no one else can ever replace.
He would fulfill Xia Qingxue's demands, but it would cause him pain.
Following one's own heart will cause Xia Qingxue pain.
If he had to choose between these two options, Xia Chuhe didn't know which one he would choose.
Xia Chuhe had already made her choice once when she was in college; she chose the second option. However, she never experienced the happiness she had imagined, and she suffered for many years.
During the six months in the wasteland, Xia Chuhe had almost given up, giving up the idea of "living according to her mother's wishes".
But that brief experience made her feel loved again.
She really, really hoped that Xia Qingxue would stand firm between her ideals and the organization... no, even if she wavered and chose her, as long as her own importance was greater... that would be enough.
Amidst Xia Chuhe's pain and inner turmoil, the younger version of Xia Chuhe comes closer.
During this period, Xia Qingxue and Lu Xingyi were always very busy, busy running the farm and factory, and busy making money.
Of course, looking back now, it's also possible that we were forced to temporarily return to the wasteland due to time constraints in the instance.
Xia Chuhe had no friends during his childhood.
So, unfortunately, she came to the amusement park alone.
Xia Chuhe didn't wait for the watch to buy her a meager two seconds to appear. Instead, he called Xia Qingxue directly: "Come to the water park's bridge and stream attraction. Your daughter is in danger."
"good."
Xia Chuhe hung up the phone.
Unfortunately, Xia Qingxue didn't arrive as quickly this time, and the amusement park was crowded.
Before Xia Qingxue arrived, the young version of Xia Chuhe stood on the bridge.
Not far behind her was a man with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, dressed in a suit that seemed out of place.
Xia Chuhe suddenly remembered something—
When she first took on the task of collecting plants for Five Star Company, she encountered a soft and cute dandelion that could talk in the wasteland. The dandelion begged Xia Chuhe not to blow on it, and after her pleas went unanswered, it cursed Xia Chuhe to have nightmares.
In that nightmare, Xia Chuhe dreamed of a burning kitchen and a man in a suit being swept into the water.
At this moment, the man in the suit had already walked towards the bridge without leaving a trace, following behind the young version of Xia Chuhe.
