The Way She Used to Be

Due to the lack of response, He Xun was a little afraid. Did his wife hit her head too hard? Were her nerves impaired? Was she paralyzed?

He Xun stretched out his arm and let Chen Wei’er face him.

Chen Wei’er noticed the other party’s movements. Because she didn’t know the man’s identity, Chen Wei’er subconsciously wanted to protect herself. She then tightly closed her eyes!

After turning his wife over, He Xun looked at her with a solemn expression.

“What’s wrong?” He Xun pinched his wife’s face.

Even at this moment, Chen Wei’er kept her eyes shut. It was unfathomable how the other person casually acted familiar with her!

He Xun assumed Chen Wei’er was merely embarrassed to face him because of her previous remark. He proceeded to kiss her forehead and tolerantly said, “Don’t think about the past anymore.”

No matter what happened then and no matter what kind of memories Chen Wei’er had, it did not matter! As long as she was by his side! As long as she loved him!

He Xun touched his wife’s face.

Chen Wei’er was at a loss. If she didn’t hear wrongly, didn’t the voice belong to He Xun? Why was she with He Xun? Why was he acting so intimate?

In her eyes, He Xun had always been cold. How could he be so gentle? In order to avoid the questions, she maintained the ruse and refused to wake up.

He Xun looked at her childish behavior. He couldn’t help himself. He adored the energetic Chen Wei’er and also liked her mischievous side.

The man’s normal reaction in the morning was aggravated by his wife’s expression.

How could he control herself?

He Xun flipped over and cornered his wife. He fluidly went through the motions. After all, they already had a tacit agreement…

Chen Wei’er was alarmed. She did not dare to pretend anymore. She immediately opened her eyes and pushed He Xun with all her strength.

“He Xun, what are you doing?!”

He Xun could discern the emotions in her words. Most of the time, she would be protesting due to embarrassment. The temptation would be hard to resist. It was a normal interaction between a husband and wife.

However, his wife’s outburst earlier was teeming with hostility and fear! He Xun halted his movement. When it came to this matter, he would never force his wife.

As long as Chen Wei’er was unwilling, he could stop at any time. Even so, he did not understand why Chen Wei’er was suddenly angry.

He Xun looked over at Chen Wei’er. Looking at the unfamiliar gaze in her eyes, his heart seemed to have been stabbed fiercely!

“Wei’er, what is wrong?” He Xun panicked.

In the next second, her answer made him feel as though he had fallen into an arctic cave!

“He Xun, why are you here? Why are we together?”

This tone was familiar yet unfamiliar to him…

A long time ago, when they were merely a nominal couple, Chen Wei’er would use this tone to talk to him.

In the past year, they had already been as inseparable as glue. Their affection for each other was overflowing.

He Xun had long forgotten the cruel Chen Wei’er. Did she badly hit her head enough to cause amnesia?

Such a thought flashed through He Xun’s mind for a moment, but he still coaxed her according to his usual habit.

“Wei’er, what is wrong? Didn’t we visit the Anning Mountain Area together?”

He Xun’s eyes were filled with tenderness.

When did He Xun look at Chen Wei’er like this? She was thoroughly confused. But when she regained her senses, she was stunned again.

What did He Xun mean by coming to the Anning Mountain Area together? Where?! She had never heard of it.

Moreover, she had been divorced from He Xun for eight years. After the divorce, they never contacted each other.

Chen Wei’er looked up at her surroundings… She frowned.

“How long have I been asleep?”

He Xun raised his hand and looked at his watch.

“You have been sleeping for 10 hours. When you fell asleep, it was around 2 o’clock in the morning. It’s already past noon.”

When He Xun slept, the sky was almost bright. He had only rested for more than five hours. During this period, he had been taking care of his wife, searching for shelter, laying grass, and preparing necessities.

Chen Wei’er noticed that He Xun’s eyes were bloodshot. She pursed her lips. “I… Why am I here?”

“After we jumped out of the car yesterday, you hit the back of your head on a rock. You fainted. Our car has already fallen off the cliff, so I can only bring you here. Once Ma Qiang and the others return, they will start searching for us.” He Xun patiently explained to his wife.

Looking at her confused face, He Xun even considerately asked, “Do you want some water? I found out yesterday that there was a mountain spring inside. The water is very…”

“Wait a minute!” Chen Wei’er interrupted He Xun. What was this person talking about? Why couldn’t she understand a single word?

Did they jump out of the car? She hit the back of her head? She also fainted? The car even fell off the cliff? And who was Ma Qiang?!
