Ni Sitian felt that Xiang Zhilan was talking nonsense, and she didn't find it real at all.
Seeing her like this, Xiang Zhilan couldn't help but speak up for Xu Tingchuan, saying, "He's really good to you. You even told me that no one in the world treats you better than him."
Ni Sitian remained silent. She really didn't feel anything about this just by talking about it. She wondered if she was dreaming. Maybe when she woke up, she would still be that high school student taking a nap in the classroom.
She couldn't help but pinch her leg, gasping in pain and frowning. It wasn't a dream after all.
Xiang Zhilan could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her, and she felt helpless. There was no point in telling her everything now; she simply couldn't accept it. Perhaps her memories would come back when she woke up tomorrow.
Xu Tingchuan overheard their conversation from outside the door. Ni Sitian's words, "How could I possibly marry another man?" stung him. It turned out that at seventeen, she was determined to marry Qin Mubei.
However, as Xin Zikai said, no matter what, as long as the person wakes up, everything else can be taken slowly.
The fact that she was able to wake up was already the best gift God could give him. So what if she forgot him? He could make her like him again. Besides, it might just be temporary amnesia, and she would recover soon.
Xu Tingchuan figured it out, reached out and pressed the doorknob, opened the door and went inside.
When Ni Sitian saw him, a clear sense of wariness appeared in her eyes.
"You just woke up, and your stomach is still weak, so I bought some congee with preserved egg and lean pork." Xu Tingchuan placed the lunchbox he was carrying on the table, opened it, and pushed it in front of her.
Xiang Zhilan squeezed Ni Sitian's palm to encourage her and give her courage.
"Thank you." Ni Sitian still felt that this man was a stranger. His gaze was too intense and too gentle, and she was a little at a loss.
Xu Tingchuan smiled faintly and handed her the spoon.
Ni Sitian took the spoon, scooped up a spoonful, and because she was so hungry, she couldn't wait to blow on it to cool it down before opening her mouth to eat.
"Be careful, it's hot." Xu Tingchuan naturally shielded his eyes with his hand.
However, Ni Sitian reacted strongly when he touched her, pulling her hand back, spilling some porridge from the spoon and scalding her chest.
Xu Tingchuan quickly grabbed some tissues and wiped Ni Sitian's face, then complained with a mix of helplessness and affection, "How old are you? Why are you still so careless?"
Ni Sitian screamed as she saw the strange man's hand touching her chest. She frantically pushed him away, her face flushed, and cried out, "What are you doing?!"
Xu Tingchuan was stunned for a moment. His hand, which had been pushed away, paused awkwardly in the air for a while before slowly lowering it.
Seeing that Ni Sitian was reacting a bit strongly, Xiang Zhilan quickly reassured her, "It's alright, it's alright, he didn't mean it."
Ni Sitian's face turned almost liver-colored, feeling that the uncle in front of her was a perverted wolf trying to take advantage of her.
Xiang Zhilan winked at Xu Tingchuan, signaling him to leave, and said she would take care of Ni Sitian.
Although Xu Tingchuan was very unwilling, he had no choice but to leave.
As Xiang Zhilan watched Xu Tingchuan's departing figure, she couldn't help but say to Ni Sitian, "He's your husband. Even though you've forgotten, he still remembers. He was just wiping you up; there's no need to react like this."
"You're saying this uncle is my husband?" Ni Sitian's eyes widened in astonishment, completely unable to believe it.
Xiang Zhilan could only mourn for Xu Tingchuan. It was no wonder that Ni Sitian was so surprised. Xu Tingchuan was actually ten years older than Ni Sitian, and now Ni Sitian's memory had regressed to when she was seventeen.
Simply put, in Ni Sitian's eyes, Xu Tingchuan was fifteen years older than her, which is more than a full cycle, making him a real "uncle".
