Chapter 32 Chapter 32 "Do you know me?"
After Qiao Yu returned to Huaicheng, he lived in a daze every day.
Luo Hao stopped sending him messages, and he didn't know whether Jiang Mian was feeling better or not.
It should be getting better. If it was bad news, you would have notified me, right?
But he was afraid of really seeing a notification, so he clicked into the other person’s circle of friends a hundred times every day, hoping to see some movement.
Two days passed and nothing happened.
Qiao Yu wondered whether he should go to Beijing again and ask the security guard of the hospital, but then he remembered that he cried bitterly last time and swore that it would be the last time he would come to Beijing.
As soon as the allergy on his face healed, he started to have wild thoughts again.
A typical case of forgetting the pain after the wound has healed, Qiao Yu raised his hand and really wanted to slap himself.
But in the end, I didn’t give it.
“Ouch~”
He bumped into someone, who stumbled around and fell beside him: "It hurts."
The other person was a girl. Qiao Yu subconsciously took a step back to distance herself from her, and then hurriedly tried to help her: "Are you okay?"
"It seems...something happened." The girl stretched out her hand to him weakly, and then - shook it tightly.
Qiao Yu was stunned and pulled his hand back abruptly.
Because she used too much force, the girl staggered and almost fell.
"Do you have any gentlemanly manners?" The other party changed his weak and helpless attitude and shouted angrily, "I almost--"
Halfway through her words, she suddenly got stuck and stared at Qiao Yu with her beautiful almond-shaped eyes, not saying a word for a long time.
"Classmate?" Qiao Yu frowned, "You should be fine now."
After he said that, he paused for two seconds, and without caring whether the other party was okay or not, he walked away.
"Hey!" The girl followed him, "You bumped into me, and you want to leave like this?"
Qiao Yu stopped and looked back.
Are you here to commit fraud?
But the next second, the other party said, "You look good. Do you want to have dinner with me?"
Qiao Yu turned and left.
"I'll treat you! Didn't you hear me?" The girl continued, "Hell? Deaf? I, beautiful lady, will treat you to a meal."
There are so many psychopaths in this world, Qiao Yu thought.
He returned to the dormitory, put down his textbooks and prepared to work part-time at the bar.
But when she was going downstairs, she bumped into a boy unexpectedly. He stood up gorgeously and looked at her affectionately, and the first thing he said was, "Do you know each other?"
Qiao Yu's face turned cold.
He felt like someone was playing a trick on him, but he didn't know who.
Thinking of this, I felt a little uneasy, so I quickened my pace.
When he arrived at Qingxiao, he found Brother Wang.
Hesitantly, he wanted to ask Luo Hao through the other party to inquire about Jiang Mian's news, but Brother Wang knew nothing and foolishly thought that he had escaped from the sea of suffering and gained a new life.
Qiao Yu gritted his teeth and said nothing.
"What day is it today?" Brother Wang patted his shoulder, "A beautiful girl bought three thousand yuan of wine and charged it to you."
Qiao Yu felt something was wrong.
He took a bottle of wine and walked over, and it turned out to be the scammer.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Qiao Yu asked.
"Sit down," the man patted the seat next to him, "My name is Qin Yulu, let's be friends."
“Crack—”
The wine bottle in Qiao Yu's hand was smashed to pieces.
The thousand dollar bottle of red wine fell to the ground with a loud noise, and the two waiters nearby opened their eyes so wide that their mouths almost popped out.
"Oh!" Qin Yulu covered his mouth in a pretentious manner, "What should I do? Have a drink with me and cheer me up."
Qiao Yu stood there, his eyes fixed on Qin Yulu's face, looking at her.
Qin Yulu was originally acting very attentively, but gradually realized that Qiao Yu's reaction was wrong, so he returned to normal.
"Do you know me?" Qin Yulu asked.
Qiao Yu opened his mouth and tried hard to answer normally and appear to be at ease.
However, after trying hard, he found that he couldn't speak at all.
"Scumbag," Qin Yulu suddenly raised her voice, "Are you worthy of Jiang Mian?"
For a second or two, Qiao Yu didn't understand what this meant.
"He almost died in the hospital and you're here—" Qin Yulu looked around and continued, "Serving the dishes."
After saying that, she felt strange again: "Does he lack money from you?"
"What are you talking about?" Qiao Yu didn't understand.
"You," Qin Yulu pointed at Qiao Yu, "Why don't you go see Jiang Mian?"
Qiao Yu was simply incredulous: "You... want me to go see Jiang Mian?"
"Me?" Qin Yulu pointed at himself again, "Why didn't I let you look at Jiang Mian?"
"You are his wife—"
Qin Yulu: "Bah..."
Qiao Yu: “…”
"Why should I spend my prime years in marriage for you? You want to play, and I want to play too, okay?"
Qiao Yu stayed where he was.
"Didn't Jiang Mian tell you? He and I are fake. Aren't you his wife? By the way, do you have a scar on your eyelid?"
Qin Yulu stood up as he spoke, and moved closer to look at Qiao Yu's eyelids.
Qiao Yu was completely stunned, unable to even dodge, and just stood there like a wooden stake.
"Sure enough," Qin Yulu pointed at him from a distance, "Did Jiang Jinhua poke it? And you still say you're not his wife?"
"Fake, fake?" Qiao Yu took a long time to recover from the word.
"What else? Isn't he gay? Can a gay man suddenly become straight? If he tricks a woman into becoming his gay wife, the whole family will be blessed."
Qin Yulu speaks too fast. He opens his mouth and talks like a machine gun. Most of what he says is nonsense, and you have to filter out the useful information under the hail of bullets.
With Qiao Yu's rusty head now, he would be exhausted to death if Qin Yulu said a few more words.
"Are you and Jiang Mian really fake?"
"How many times do I have to say the same thing? I want his money, he's borrowing my influence, it's a business marriage, do you understand?" Qin Yulu said impatiently, "I told you but you didn't believe it, and you like to ask questions even though you don't believe it. Don't you know that Jiang Mian has lost his memory? He fell on his head, and when Luo Hao met him, he didn't even know his own name..."
Before Qiao Yu could recover from the previous shock, the next one came right after.
“But, but, but he…” Qiao Yu didn’t know how to explain, “But he called and said he was pretending, saying, saying he couldn’t pretend anymore.”
Qin Yulu frowned: "Really? Did he say that?"
"Yes," Qiao Yu confirmed, "I heard it with my own ears."
"You heard wrong," Qin Yulu said, "Jiang Mian is not that kind of person."
Qiao Yu never thought that one day he would hear someone tell him what kind of person Jiang Mian was.
"He's not a liar. He loves you very much." Qin Yulu sighed. "I don't think you're unruly and you're not indifferent to him. What are you doing? Aren't you two in love? Why are you being tossed around like this?"
Qiao Yu was speechless for a long time.
"He was calling your name even when he was unconscious," Qin Yulu whispered, then raised his voice, "Right now, will you come with me to Jing City?"
-
Qiao Yu went back home, talked to Aunt Sun, packed two sets of clothes and went straight to Beijing.
This time he entered the hospital smoothly in the car. Jiang Mian had been transferred to the general ward, so he could be cared for 24 hours and no longer needed to wear isolation clothing.
"Watch him carefully," Qin Yulu said, "I don't know how many people are hoping for his death now."
After she finished speaking, she left. Qiao Yu stood alone by the bed for a long time.
He was a little afraid to look at Jiang Mian, and didn't dare to touch these people and things that might hurt him again.
But he remembered what Qin Yulu said, if you like him, you have to trust him.
I believe Jiang Mian has indeed lost his memory, and I believe he is not lying to me.
After all, my fiancée has come out to help me, so there is no reason for me not to take this trip, right?
"Oh my god!"
A man rushed into the ward, but turned his head like a top and quickly spun himself out.
Qiao Yu sniffed, calmed himself down, put Jiang Mian aside for the time being, and walked to the door to check the situation.
Luo Hao rubbed his eyes: "Qiao Yu? How did you get in?"
Qiao Yu answered honestly: "Qin Yulu brought me in."
"Qin——" Luo Hao snorted, "Forget it, she just does what she wants."
Luo Hao was here to keep watch. These days, Qin Yulu watched him during the day and at night, fearing that when Jiang Mian woke up, the person pouring water for him would not be someone he knew, and he would die of thirst with a dry throat.
"Don't you believe it?" Luo Hao still remembered the grudge and said unhappily, "Why do you come if you don't believe it?"
Qiao Yu avoided this question and switched to something he was more concerned about: "Did Jiang Mian really lose his memory?"
Luo Hao's eyes widened: "No, you still doubt this? If he didn't lose his memory, why didn't he come to find you?"
Qiao Yu couldn't answer for a while, so he changed the question: "But one day I heard him talking on the phone to someone and he said he couldn't pretend anymore."
Luo Hao was silent for a moment and sighed: "When I met Jiang Shao five years ago, he didn't remember anything..."
Luo Hao was still a foreign student at that time. They were a small circle of people. One day, a new face suddenly appeared, so they pulled him in to play together.
Jiang Mian accepted the invitation, but he didn't understand anything and was like a fool, staring blankly in the crowd.
Luo Hao went over to strike up a conversation, and after getting to know each other, he found out that Jiang Mian had been in a car accident and had lost his memory.
He only knows that his name is Jiang Mian, but the authenticity of his name is questionable.
Since he is studying abroad here, his family must be quite wealthy, and the balance in the card is enough for him to live comfortably.
The reason I came out was to try to get in touch with the surroundings, to see if I could happen to come across anything familiar and find memories of the past.
It was the first time that Luo Hao saw a person with amnesia. He found it curious and joined him in the search.
But no matter how much he came into contact with them or how far he walked, he didn't feel the slightest bit of familiarity, nor could he find any memories of the past.
"Are you in the country?" Luo Hao asked.
So Jiang Mian tried to return to China, but was repeatedly blocked.
There was something fishy going on, and he began to doubt his "home".
Then, he discovered a large number of shell companies registered in his name, with their registered locations distributed across various archipelagos, most of which were located in excellent tax havens.
Jiang Mian gradually began to develop anti-reconnaissance awareness, and conducted investigations secretly while maintaining superficial calm.
He secretly withdrew a lot of cash from his bank card, used it for socializing, and made many friends.
Among them was a lawyer who was interested in approaching and whose specialty was cross-border finance.
In just five years, Jiang Mian grew rapidly like crazy.
He wanted to return home and find out about his past. He wanted to know what the "shadow" that kept appearing in his dreams was.
Yes, he has a "shadow".
But when he returned to China three years later, Jiang Mian walked around Beijing again and again but found nothing.
He always felt that something was missing in his heart, and had doubts about the missing piece, strange shapes, and complex thoughts.
He once suspected that this "shadow" might not be a specific object, but some indelible obsession, or perhaps a deceased family member.
This problem tormented him for another two years.
Until one day, he heard a voice called "Jiang Mian".
When he saw Qiao Yu, Jiang Mian didn't react for a while.
It felt as if the other person was a part torn off from his body. No matter how strange the missing piece of the puzzle in his heart was, Qiao Yu could fill it in perfectly.
He tried to record this feeling, but even if he described it over and over again with words, it was not as amazing as actually seeing that side of Qiao Yu.
He walked over, but then stepped back.
He looked at the other person curiously.
"Do you know me?"
