Memory Loss

He Xun carried Chen Wei’er and shuttled through the reeds. He walked forward in a daze, but he didn’t know where to go. He wasn’t aware of how much time had passed, but it felt like forever. His arm already went numb…

Gradually, he encountered a cave that could provide shelter against the weather.

The cave appeared to be uninhabited. The entrance was covered by a dense reed forest. Pushing aside the layers of reeds, He Xun carried Chen Wei’er into the cave. There was no trace of anyone, and the sound of water dripping in the depths of the cave could be heard.

Fortunately, the cave entrance was dry. He Xun placed Chen Wei’er on a relatively flat rock and walked back to the cave entrance. He rolled up his sleeves and began to fold the reeds. He Xun could not help but rejoice at this moment. The geographical location of this cave was adequate.

There were dense reeds at the entrance of the cave to block the cold wind, and these reeds could be pulled down to create mats or lit to keep warm and cook.

He Xun was strong, and his movements were quick. In a short while, he accomplished a lot. He picked up the reed and walked into the cave. He knocked off the soil stuck to the bottom of the reeds and laid them layer by layer.

Chen Wei’er grew up in the city. Chen Anhe was not impoverished either. She must be used to a soft bed. He didn’t know if she would be able to get used to sleeping in such a rustic cave.

As He Xun laid the bed, he thought of ways to let his wife sleep better. He was also thinking about what they should eat later. Other than the reeds, there seemed to be nothing around…

As He Xun pondered, he began to imagine his wife’s expression once she woke up and saw the cave. Would she dislike it? Or would she be happy? Even though it was merely imagination, he could not help but laugh.

However, after laughing for a few seconds, the expression on his face stiffened. He recalled what Chen Wei’er had said when she regained consciousness…

Although He Xun’s imagination was running wild, he never stopped working. He first laid the reeds into a simple mat, then rubbed the stones, and started a fire.

The fire warmed the cave up. He Xun then climbed onto the reed mat and hugged Chen Wei’er until he succumbed to sleep.

Chen Wei’er woke up amidst the chirping of insects and birds. At first, she was not fully conscious. She rubbed her eyes for a long time and wondered where all the strange sounds came from.

Could it be that the old man next door had played with some pet again? Seriously, last time, the corridor was filled with solid waste because his dog defecated randomly. That dog even bit people…

She was pregnant, and it was already annoying enough. Chen Wei’er couldn’t take it anymore. She wanted to scold that old man once she woke up… After all, the soundproofing of the old house was not good, and the scent couldn’t be filtered.

Out of habit, Chen Wei’er reached down to touch her stomach, but her hand didn’t make contact. She ended up touching the arm around her waist. Her nose immediately scrunched.

Was it Nie Suijing? Did he finally stop gambling outside? It had been a long time since Nie Suijing had hugged her like this. Was he trying to turn over a new leaf and live a good life?

Chen Wei’er sniffed and continued to move her hand down…Then, she was stunned. Where was her stomach? Where did her child go?

In an instant, many scenes flashed through her mind.

The hospital… First aid… Blood!

Chen Wei’er’s pupils constricted as she recalled what had happened before she slept.

She had a big fight with Nie Suijing.

Nie Suijing then kicked her in the stomach.

She was bleeding, and her stomach was in extreme pain.

She held onto the wall alone and struggled to reach the hospital.

On the way, she met He Xun. Then, she vaguely heard that the child seemed to be dying…

Finally, she woke up. But where was this?

Chen Wei’er looked up at the ceiling. No, how was this the ceiling? It was a cave! There was a piece of sharp stone above her head. She did not need to imagine to know that this thing would definitely split her head open if it fell.

“You’re awake?” A familiar yet unfamiliar voice rang in her ears, and her mind went blank. This voice did not belong to Nie Suijing!

But who else could lie next to her and hug her other than Nie Suijing?

Did Nie Suijing sell her out as collateral? Thinking of this, Chen Wei’er recalled countless news about husbands owing money and using their wives as payment! For a moment, she did not know how to react.

He Xun also woke up. Feeling the stiffness of the person in his arms, he leaned up slightly and hugged her even tighter. He asked in a low voice, “Does it still hurt? Are you still feeling unwell?”

Chen Wei’er stiffened even more. She did not dare to move. Who was this man? Why did his voice sound so familiar, and his words…

She did not dare to respond! What did he mean by still hurting? Why did it sound so ambiguous?

Who was this person?!
