Chapter 89 Memories to be restored
Shen Qi grabbed his wrist and said, "Master, you just lost your memory temporarily, so you can't remember what happened originally. I don't blame you, but being with Lu Zhi is not a wise choice. I'm just trying to prevent you from going astray."
Shen Ranxin's legs were already very weak, and because of the confrontation with Shen Qi, she had to stand straight. Now she was really tired, so she simply leaned back lightly and glanced at Shen Qi with an expressionless face.
“I don’t trust anyone.”
Shen Ranxin's eyelids drooped in indifference. Even though he was covered in traces of ambiguity, where he stood was a cold moonlight.
"But I believe in my own intuition. Now my feelings tell me that I like Lu Zhi."
Shen Qi's face was gloomy, and he said in a hoarse voice: "As the son of Shen Ziqing, you are a little surprising in your innocence, young master, I thought that after experiencing that kind of thing, you should have a superficial understanding of this kind of illusory emotion, that is -"
He leaned down, supporting Shen Ranxin's face with one hand, his voice was hoarse as it could be lowered, with a hint of contempt and disdain.
"In this world, no one will give up everything for the word love. In the adult world, there is only a balance of pros and cons."
Shen Ranxin frowned slightly, and before she could say anything, she heard Lu Zhi's footsteps coming up the stairs.
Shen Qi straightened up and whispered in his ear: "When you recover your memory, you will know that what I said is for your own good. Did the people at the Alien Management Center tell you that they can't use external forces to interfere with your memory?"
Shen Ranxin raised her eyes: "What do you mean?"
"Since your memory has been obstructed and tampered with by humans, it can naturally be modified by humans, but the risk is very high."
Shen Qi put one hand in his pocket and said quickly before Lu Zhi came up: "If you are willing to take this risk, I can return your memory to you."
After he finished speaking, he turned and went into the room.
Lu Zhi appeared at the corner of the stairs on the second floor and saw Shen Ranxin leaning against the door frame, walking towards him with the ointment in his hand.
"What's wrong?" Lu Zhi raised his hand and touched Shen Ranxin's head: "Is there something wrong?"
Shen Ranxin turned his head to avoid it for a moment: "I'm fine."
"Do you want to apply the ointment?" Lu Zhi raised the ointment in his hand a little higher: "I got this from the Abnormal Management Center. It's much more effective than the ointments in the Points Mall."
Shen Ranxin took a deep breath and took the ointment: "I can do it myself."
Lu Zhi grabbed Shen Ranxin's wrist, then raised his hand and rubbed Shen Ranxin's palm on his face: "I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, I will be gentle next time, okay? Don't be angry with me."
Shen Ranxin: “…”
Lu Zhi's eyes were wet. His eyes were light in color, reflecting the sunlight outside the window like glass. He looked so pitiful when he looked at people like this.
Seeing that Shen Ranxin didn't say anything, Lu Zhi took out a very small leather collar from behind and handed it to Shen Ranxin.
Shen Ranxin paused and said, "What is this?"
Lu Zhi narrowed his eyes, and a hint of red soon appeared at the corners of his eyes.
Lu Zhi held his hand in return.
"The thing that prevents pheromones from getting out of control can only monitor the concentration of pheromones around. If the concentration is too high, it will cause some pain to the person wearing it." Lu Zhi lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I have apologized too many times, so you may not believe me, so I prepared this. With this, at least I can be more sober when I lose control. Please help me put it on, okay?"
Shen Ranxin followed Lu Zhi's hand and wrapped the necklace around his neck.
The necklace was very simple in design, making his skin look snow-white. His collarbone was undulating, and perhaps because of the pain, a small pool of sweat gathered, which finally overflowed because it could not contain it.
"You..." Shen Ranxin widened his eyes in surprise and was speechless for a moment.
"When I was in the Alien Management Center, every time I lost control, they would use this method to wake me up." Lu Zhi tapped Shen Ranxin's palm with his fingertips: "I said, you can completely control me."
Lu Zhi's way of admitting his mistake was so weird that Shen Ranxin was unable to accept it all of a sudden.
Lu Zhi blinked: "The dean said that you would like a partner who is a little bit obedient. When I was controlled in the alien control center, I wore this to prevent the pheromones from getting out of control... because it was quite painful."
Shen Ranxin paused for a moment, then silently took the necklace off Lu Zhi's neck, reached out and touched Lu Zhi's forehead to confirm that he did not have a fever.
After a long while, he said speechlessly: "Besides making you feel pain, does this thing have any other side effects?"
Lu Zhi shook his head.
Shen Ranxin then hung the necklace around Lu Zhi's neck with some confidence and said, "Got it, you go back first."
Lu Zhi finally walked into his single room, looking back every few steps.
When Shen Ranxin came in with the ointment, Shen Qi was sitting on the bed looking at him. He lowered his eyes to glance at what he was holding in his hand and snorted coldly.
Shen Ranxin ignored him and went into the bathroom carrying the ointment. Then he paused and locked the bathroom door behind him.
He stepped on the toilet lid to apply medicine to his injured part. Shen Qi's sarcastic voice came from outside: "When Lu Zhi was here, did you lock the door when you used the bathroom?"
Shen Ranxin bit her lower lip as she applied medicine to herself. She really didn't have time to answer his boring questions.
Shen Qi muttered outside again: "You used to be very afraid of pain. He hurt you so much, but you didn't slap him? Do you really like him that much? If I did that, you would have kicked me to pieces..."
Shen Ranxin: “…”
Quite self-aware.
"If I hadn't run away back then, would the outcome now be different? In that case, Lu Zhi wouldn't have had the chance to be by your side, and I should have been the one who always stayed by your side."
Shen Ranxin had also taken the medicine at this time. He opened the bathroom door with a rustle and looked at Shen Qi who was standing at the door.
Shen Qi's eyes were filled with resentment and sadness. He stared at the rosy-lipped Shen Ranxin with his round eyes. After a while, he gently rolled his Adam's apple and said, "Young Master..."
"What are the side effects of the method you mentioned that can help me restore my memory?"
Shen Qi paused for a moment, then spoke with difficulty: "It may cause indelible damage to your nervous system."
Shen Ranxin weighed it up and asked, "Is it certain?"
"That depends on which memory you want to recall. It's actually a matter of probability." Shen Qi said, "The more you try to avoid memories, the more damage they will do to your brain. So if you want to try, I suggest you start with some memories that you don't hate so much, such as the days you spent with me."
Shen Ranxin raised an eyebrow: "How to use it?"
"It will be fine after a good night's sleep." Shen Qi said, "I have brought the equipment. As long as you don't go out to meet Lu Zhi tonight, I will give it to you."
Shen Ranxin nodded: "Deal."
