Chapter 226 Chapter 226 The Past from Li Meng's Mouth
When Jiang Yi and Shen Qinghuan got into trouble, Jiang Yu was studying abroad. In order not to affect her studies, the old man of the Jiang family ordered the news to be blocked.
This means that not many people knew about the incident, and they were all from a few good relationships, so they naturally agreed to keep it secret.
After a long time, the incident was forgotten by everyone and no one mentioned it again. After all, the person was no longer there, and there was no point in bringing it up again.
The most important thing is that after Shen Qinghuan woke up, she forgot about the car accident and Jiang Yi, as if Jiang Yi had never existed. She forgot everything completely.
When Li Meng thought of this, he felt overwhelmed.
It wasn't that she didn't want to tell Shen Qinghuan about Jiang Yi's existence, but she didn't know where to start.
But she knew Shen Qinghuan's personality. Since she asked, she would definitely find a way to know everything. Instead of being deceived by others, it would be better for her to tell her what happened that year.
After leaving the construction site, Li Meng found a cafe nearby and sent a message to Shen Qinghuan, saying that she was waiting for her in the cafe.
When Shen Qinghuan arrived, Li Meng was already sitting there.
Seeing Shen Qinghuan sitting down opposite her, she pretended to smile and asked, "What would you like to drink?"
"A glass of warm water will do."
Shen Qinghuan responded readily.
Then, he blurted out all the doubts in his heart, "Mengmeng, you said I knew Jiang Yi, but I don't have any impression of him in my mind. But if I try hard to think about it, my head hurts. That kind of pain... is like being hit with a hammer."
"What is my relationship with him? Why did I forget him? Why do I feel depressed when I hear this name? Mengmeng, you must know what happened, right?"
"Otherwise, how could I forget someone I knew for no reason?"
Li Meng took a deep breath, puffed up her cheeks helplessly, and was filled with displeasure.
Since you have already forgotten it, why bring it up again?
"Huanbao, do you really want to know?"
Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, her brows furrowed tightly, not understanding what was going on. "Can't I know?"
Li Meng curled her lips, "It's not that I can't know, it's just that...it won't do you any good if you know it."
Shen Qinghuan thought about it seriously and said, "I don't need any benefits, just tell me directly."
Li Meng: "...Huanbao, have you ever thought about why you forgot him? Also, why have we never mentioned this person to you in all these years?"
Shen Qinghuan held the water cup in both hands, looked at the pure water surface, and shook his head silently.
If she knew, she wouldn't have asked her.
Li Meng supported her chin with one hand, and weighed it over and over again in her mind, wondering whether she should tell her about this.
Seeing Li Meng still hesitating, Shen Qinghuan suddenly smiled, "If I knew about this, would there be serious consequences?"
Li Meng was stunned, and after a moment's hesitation, she said, "That shouldn't be the case! It's just that you might feel uncomfortable. Huanbao, this isn't a big deal, so why don't you just stop asking?"
"You said it's not a big deal, so why can't you tell me?"
Shen Qinghuan didn't understand. If it wasn't important, why did he keep it from her?
Li Meng puffed up her cheeks, sighed helplessly, and frowned even more tightly. Should she tell her?
"If you really don't want to talk about it, forget it."
Hearing Shen Qinghuan's words, Li Meng's eyes lit up with surprise, "Really?"
Shen Qinghuan glared at her angrily, "That's fake! But if you really don't want to tell me, then I won't ask anymore. I'll ask other people, and someone will know, right? I don't believe I can't find out."
As she spoke, she made a move to get up and leave.
Li Meng's heart skipped a beat. How could she dare let Shen Qinghuan ask other people? She hurried over to stop her, "No! I didn't say I wouldn't tell you. I was just thinking about how to tell you."
"Yeah?"
Shen Qinghuan half-closed her eyes and smiled.
I don't believe you?
Li Meng pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly and said with a smile, "Of course it's true! I don't have to lie to you, but about this! Huanbao..." She deliberately leaned forward, her eyes more serious, "Do you really want to know about Jiang Yi?"
Shen Qinghuan sighed helplessly, "If it wasn't true, would I come to you?"
"Alright!" She seemed to have made up her mind and looked at Shen Qinghuan seriously. "To put it simply, Jiang Yi died to save you. However, it's also true that he liked you, but you didn't like him. The person you liked was Jiang Yu."
"That year, Jiang Yu went to study abroad. With him gone, those who usually disliked you naturally looked for opportunities to bully you. One time, when you were being bullied, Jiang Yi bumped into you and saved you. After that, your relationship gradually improved."
"By the way, I have to tell you about Jiang Yi's identity. Jiang Yi is nominally the adopted son of Jiang Zhenlin and Chen Yun, but in fact, he is Jiang Zhenlin's illegitimate child when he was young. He came to the Jiang family only two years earlier than you. Because he was not welcomed, he attended boarding school all his life."
"Now let me tell you how he died. According to the information I received, he was driving you back home when he got into a car accident on the way. He must have been trying to protect you and was seriously injured. He died on the spot."
When Li Meng said this, she kept her head down and didn't dare to look Shen Qinghuan in the eye. She just kept looking at her out of the corner of her eyes.
However, Shen Qinghuan didn't react much, only frowning slightly, "What about me? Am I seriously injured?"
"Of course it's serious! You were in a coma for a week before you woke up. After you woke up, you could remember everyone but him. The old man of the Jiang family was worried that you would be upset, so he issued a ban, forbidding anyone to mention Jiang Yi in front of you."
"After a while, everyone forgot about this person. After all, he didn't have much presence when he was alive."
As if remembering something, she quickly added, "Not many people know about this. I'm one of them. Even Xu Dongyao and Shi Beichuan don't know. Then there are the Jiang family. But Jiang Yu was abroad at the time, so he probably didn't know either."
If Jiang Yu knew, he wouldn't ask her what happened that year.
After saying this, Li Meng secretly glanced at Shen Qinghuan.
Shen Qinghuan lowered her head, and her long, thick eyelashes like crow feathers trembled slightly, covering the strange color that appeared deep in her eyes.
She held the water cup in both hands, her eyes fixed on the slightly swaying water surface.
Li Meng opened her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but finally held back.
She told Shen Qinghuan everything she knew. As for how much she could remember, that was her own business.
After a while, Shen Qinghuan slowly raised her head, revealing a pair of slightly dazed and empty eyes. After hesitating for a moment, she asked sullenly, "Are you sure... I don't like Jiang Yi at all?"
"Of course I'm sure! The person you've always liked is Jiang Yu. The reason you ended up with Jiang Yi is because he's always pestering you. But, he's also really good to you."
If Jiang Yi didn't treat her well, how could he give up his life to protect her!
Li Meng picked up the coffee cup in front of her and brought it to her lips to drink, but she still couldn't help but secretly glance at Shen Qinghuan.
Shen Qinghuan nodded thoughtfully, "I understand."
After hesitating for a moment, she looked up at Li Meng, her soft lips slightly pursed, "So, I actually haven't been with Jiang Yi. Maybe he just treated me as a brother at the time."
"What else?"
Li Meng never thought that Shen Qinghuan would fall in love with Jiang Yi.
Shen Qinghuan took a deep breath and finally figured out the confusion in her heart. "By the way, Mengmeng, do you know where Jiang Yi is buried? Can you take me to pay my respects to him?"
"Of course!"
"So, come with me now?"
