"Does it really have to come to a point where it's a matter of life and death?"
"The choice is hers, not ours. You should ask whether she is willing to let go of the Ji and Lu families. Yingying, who was forced to go abroad to give birth because of her and whose fate is still unknown, is she not our Ji family's daughter? Old woman, let's not interfere."
The old lady slowly walked to the kumquat tree, her eyes filled with tears and longing. "She planted this kumquat tree when I was a child because I liked to eat them. She said she wanted me to eat the freshest ones. Why did she become like this?"
Suppressing his inner turmoil, the old man picked a kumquat and offered it to her. "Have another one. After tomorrow, this kumquat tree will be gone."
"You've made up your mind, and you won't regret it?"
"Just consider her as if she really died more than twenty years ago. That's what she would have wanted, isn't it?"
After a long pause, the old lady finally took the kumquat and slowly put it in her mouth. A sour taste instantly spread through her mouth. "Cut her name off the family tree. From now on, treat her as a stranger."
She had waited so long, endured severe morning sickness and a difficult labor to give birth to her daughter, and now she doesn't want her parents anymore.
There will be a day when we meet again. On that day, how will she watch her and the Ji family kill each other?
Seeing the person weeping uncontrollably, the old man felt the same regret. If he hadn't devoted himself to the Ji Group when he was young and had given Ji Lan more guidance, would she have ended up like this?
"Maybe this is fate. There are so many bad people in this world, it's normal for the Ji family to produce one, maybe more than one. Yan'er will handle these things, we just shouldn't cause him any trouble."
The Ji family also needs a thorough purge.
Country C.
Ji Fuying woke up again at 10 p.m.
She was all alone in the ward. Looking at the empty room, a strange sense of loss welled up in her heart.
She gently placed her hands on her head, as if she had forgotten something very important. A small figure vaguely appeared in her mind—was it a child?
Why was she in the hospital?
Who is that child? Who is she?
Who can give her the answer?
As soon as Jiang Yunshen entered the ward, he saw her looking dazed and in pain. He quickly walked over and asked, "What's wrong? Is your head hurting again?"
The sudden sound made Ji Fuying look up in confusion, her clear and pure eyes meeting Jiang Yunshen's gaze.
At that moment, Jiang Yunshen seemed to hear his own heartbeat quickening. This was the first time he had ever felt such emotions towards a woman.
"Who are you?" Her voice was soft and gentle, with a slightly drawn-out tone.
"I..." Looking at her innocent face, how could he bear to tell her everything she had gone through?
Shao Yu also said that the back of the person who hurt her looked familiar, so it was very likely that he was someone she knew.
Or perhaps all of this has some unclear connection to him. He should keep her by his side for now, so that he can protect her and secretly find out her identity.
Moreover, he needs someone to stand by his side, and she should be the best choice.
"You are my fiancée. You accidentally bumped your head, so you have temporarily forgotten your past memories. However, the doctor said you will recover gradually, so don't worry too much."
"Fiancée?" She looked at Jiang Yunshen with obvious wariness. "Then do we have a daughter?"
"Daughter?" Jiang Yun Shen immediately stopped smiling. What daughter? Did she have a daughter before? But didn't she lose her memory?
“We don’t have a daughter. You have amnesia, and your mind might still be a bit confused. We’re not married yet.” He emphasized the word “unmarried”.
"Then who am I, where am I from, what is my name, and who else is in my family?" Ji Fuying asked a series of questions, but Jiang Yunshen could not answer any of them.
After thinking for a while, he made up a series of answers: "Your name is Lu Qing, you are an orphan, and you live with me."
“Lu Qing, the Lu of land.” Ji Fuying murmured the surname, as if it were indeed somewhat familiar.
"It's not this 'Lu,' it's the 'Lu' in 'little deer,'" Jiang Yunshen corrected her in time.
Her eyes were so clear, like a little deer lost in the forest, which is why he gave her that name.
"Oh, so my name is Lu Qing. Can I be discharged now?" For some reason, she hated the feeling of being hospitalized. Did she used to be hospitalized often?
This feeling of oppression was so unbearable that she decided to recuperate rather than stay in the hospital.
Jiang Yunshen seemed to sense her aversion to the hospital, and sat down next to her, asking softly, "You don't want to be in the hospital?"
Ji Fuying didn't speak, but nodded tentatively, wondering if he would let her leave the hospital.
Although he was her fiancé, she felt like he was a complete stranger to her.
I have absolutely no desire to get close to him. Will losing my memory cause me to completely lose my physical reactions?
"I'll go ask the doctor. You should rest first."
"Um."
After Jiang Yunshen left, Ji Fuying got out of bed and went to the window. The scene was still unfamiliar. This feeling of not remembering anything was really torturous. She had to find a way to recover her memory as soon as possible.
She didn't want to live in such a daze, having to hear about her past from other people.
Jiang Yun Shen returned quickly, along with her attending physician. Seeing that she was able to get out of bed on her own, the attending physician knew that she was probably alright.
