Chapter 54 Amnesia
The press conference for Yu Qingqing's new album's title song "Rebirth from the Ashes" was held as scheduled. He Qian and Yang Xiao arrived on time. To the outside world, they seemed to be showing their support, but in fact they were fully focused on the arranger Xu Keran.
He Qian had already asked Yu Qingqing and the producer, but they didn't know whether Xu Keran would show up. The copyright of this song was bought out by Xingyun Music, and Xu Keran was notoriously eccentric in the circle. No one would really care whether he showed up or not.
The press conference hadn't even ended, but articles and photos about He Qian's exclusive love for Yu Qingqing were already all over the headlines. After all, Yu Qingqing was He Qian's girlfriend with whom he had maintained a relationship for the longest time. If it weren't for the bodyguards who followed him closely, the reporters who gathered around would have been most keen to interview about the topic of marriage.
They didn't see Xu Keran until the press conference ended.
Back at the company, He Qian stood in front of the glass window, suppressing his anger and trying to calm himself, but the flames in his heart were already out of control. The sound material of the fire in Xu Keran's hand was exactly the same as the one in Qin Xiang's message. The connection between them must be very complicated! But after more than two months of investigation, it seemed that today would bring some results, but he didn't show up!
He must catch Xu Keran to find out whether Qin Xiang is dead or alive, and what happened in the laboratory thirteen years ago!
"The airline has also checked, and it's true that this person hasn't entered the country in the past month!" Yang Xiao reported the results to him after finishing the call.
He Qian's face was already ugly, and now he was about to lose control of his emotions!
Yang Xiao thought he would be furious, but he bit his cheek to suppress his anger. "Maybe he has some concerns about China? Three singers he collaborated with in China didn't attend the press conference either."
"You must go to his lair right now and keep an eye on him. If you can't find him, check the people around him!"
"Yes." Yang Xiao was exhausted by this tug-of-war, but it also aroused his desire to challenge, and he was determined to find Xu Keran!
He Qian rubbed his face with his hands, dealt with his irritability as quickly as possible, and called Song Li in.
Song Li just ran into Yang Xiao handing over several tasks to Zeng Xinyue, who said he was going to the United States on a business trip for a while. Before he had the chance to ask him why he was flying there again after just coming back, he was called into the president's office. Then he saw He Qian's gloomy expression. What on earth happened between the two of them in the United States?
He Qian carefully observed her step by step as she approached. With the sound of her light and sharp footsteps, her outline gradually became clearer, and his love for her gradually became stronger...
"Mr. He, what's the matter?" Song Li felt a little uncomfortable under his torch-like gaze.
"Come sit next to me." He Qian raised his left arm and placed it on the back of the sofa, meaning that her seat was here.
Song Li was wearing a short skirt today and was just sitting on the edge of the sofa, obviously not wanting to be so close to him.
He Qian turned sideways, resting his elbow on the sofa to support his head. "Doctor Liang has already decided on a treatment plan. Let's go over there after lunch to take a look. If possible, you can be hospitalized for the next two days."
He felt a little reluctant when he thought about not being able to open his eyes and look up to see her, and having to endure such a long time!
Song Li didn't understand what he was talking about for a moment! His mind was in a whirlwind. Treatment? Was it that time he said in the hospital that he needed treatment for the loss of his sense of taste and the knee injury?
Wasn't that just a casual remark? It's been so long, and he still remembers it? Besides... would he really mean it when he wanted to cure her? When she and Yu Qingqing were kidnapped, he clearly didn't care about her life or death!
Or was he using her again? What was he planning? What was his scheme?
He Qian saw worry in her complicated expression, "Don't you want to go? What are you afraid of?"
Song Li didn't start, "Don't you know what you're afraid of?" She was afraid of his mood swings from beginning to end. If the cure was true, it only meant that he was in a good mood at the moment and would give her some small favors. If he was in a bad mood, he would be the one to destroy the world!
"Song Li, I noticed that besides having problems with your sense of taste and knees, I also want to check if you have aphasia."
Song Li pouted, "Can I not go?"
"Can't."
"I don't want to go!"
"It's not up to you."
Song Li frowned and lowered his voice slightly, "Didn't you ask me to assist Director Liang with the Chumishan project? There are still two companies that haven't agreed. The public notice period is only 20 days, and already a week has passed!"
"How come I didn't know you loved your work so much?"
Song Li blinked and stared at the man in front of her, as if if she didn't stay away from him, she would fall into his trap in the next second!
"It's settled. Nothing you say will matter! I don't want the person I sleep with every night to be plagued by illness! If I lose interest three or four times and end up in your hands, will you be responsible?"
All the pain is caused by you... Song Li knew that resistance was futile, so he stopped arguing and said, "Then I'm leaving."
He Qian pulled her, one hand around her waist, the other hand holding the back of her neck, his face serious, "Song Li."
Song Li saw herself in the center of his pupils. She thought he was going to kiss her madly or force himself on her again. His desire had increased significantly recently. When he wanted something, it didn't matter whether it was day or night, on the sofa or in the car! She had just said that she had no interest, and she couldn't even blush when she boasted!
But this time he didn't take the next step, but called her name softly.
He Qian had been gathering up his courage for a long time, just for this moment: "Song Li, I'm sorry."
He was afraid that when the truth came out one day, his apology would seem so weak and hypocritical, so he would not do anything that was too late.
The moment these three words were uttered, his shame was completely triggered. She had said sorry to him countless times, but he, who had committed so many evil things, only said them for the first time today when she was devastated and bruised, and his words were awkward and stiff.
Song Li was surprised. The world was still for the first second after he finished speaking, but the next second it was like a bolt from the blue. His heart was suddenly filled with cold lead...
What was he saying? Saying sorry to her? Had he changed his personality? Song Li looked at him as if he were a stranger meeting her for the first time, and his words were just as strange!
"On the anniversary of your father's death, I shouldn't have let you attend Zeng Lingxiong's birthday party, and asked you to dress like that and sing on the stage. After you went back, you also... Song Li, I really didn't think about it for a moment. If you told me, I would definitely approve your leave." He Qian knew that this matter must be very painful. He thought that if it happened to him, he would definitely not have as good an attitude as her!
He would apologize when he should, and he would not drag his feet! From now on, he would do his best to make up for what he owed her, not to mention an apology!
Song Li's throat felt dry and hard, and he opened his mouth in a half-crazed, half-dazed look, unable to utter a word.
He Qian held her waist, their chests and stomachs perfectly pressed together, their breathing and heartbeats in unison, their eyes meeting with a distance of only ten centimeters. This kind of intimacy was common in the more than ten years they had shared a bed, but now, with so much time and energy, the feeling he had for her this time was completely different...
"What are you talking about?" Song Li suddenly felt a panic spread throughout his limbs and internal organs!
She tried hard to search her mind for evidence of that day's memories. Why was it completely different from what he said?
He Qian had imagined many kinds of her reactions, but this was not the case. She was so panicked that her face turned pale and then red. He was a little confused. Was her question due to her surprise that he would say the word "sorry", or was there something else behind her words?
"What birthday party? What singing?" Song Li had no memory of what he was talking about. Zeng Lingxiong's birthday party? On the anniversary of her father's death, she had clearly gone to pay her respects. She had said a lot of things before going to her father's tombstone!
"What are you talking about?" Song Li almost growled, "On the anniversary of my father's death... I already went to see him! I even chatted with him and had a drink! What does this have to do with Zeng Lingxiong's birthday party?"
Isn't it? Song Li suddenly felt like there was a sharp knife stuck in her chest. If she didn't pull it out, the pain would make her unable to breathe! If she pulled it out, she would soon bleed to death!
He Qian's head suddenly buzzed! His heart sank. Was her memory distorted? Or was she living in a fantasy, imagining that there had never been a birthday party, and that all those scenes that contradicted the anniversary of the death had never happened?
"You... can't remember anything at all?"
"Are you kidding me?" Song Li forced a smile. What did he mean by she couldn't remember? There was no such thing as he said! What on earth was he trying to do? Why was he telling her all this for no reason?
He Qian felt an inexplicable timidity in his heart. He was suddenly afraid of Song Li like this... She ate and slept normally every day, and there was nothing abnormal at all. But now, why did she lose her memory of that day?
How much injustice did she endure that she was forced to choose to forget deep down in her heart?
"What on earth do you want to do?" Song Li's scalp tingled when she thought of what he had done. He was so abnormal today, there must be some conspiracy waiting for her!
"You said... on the day of your father's death, where were you?"
"It has nothing to do with you!" Song Li pushed him away forcefully!
She didn't want to mention her father in front of him. He wasn't worthy! She stood up in a panic, her steps a little messy, and she didn't know where to go for a moment...
He Qian wanted to catch up with her, but his feet felt like they weighed down a thousand pounds, and he couldn't move his feet. On the verge of suffocation, he watched her disappear into the office. The emptiness in his heart was like a whirlwind blowing...
