Shen Xi naturally sensed the expectation in Su Han’s eyes. She turned to her parents and said, “Mom, Dad, you go back first. I’ll stay here for a while.”
Lu Shan said with concern, “Is it okay for you to stay here? What if you have an episode?”
Shen Yan also expressed disapproval, “Xi, why don’t you go back with us first, and we’ll come back to visit when Guan Lei wakes up?”
Shen Xi shook her head. She shifted her gaze to Guan Lei and said resolutely, “I’ve just recovered some memories. I want to stay here. Maybe staying here will help me recover more memories, and perhaps remember more things.” Shen Xi’s words surprised the parents on both sides.
Lu Shan excitedly asked, “Xi, are you telling the truth? Have your memories really started to come back?”
Shen Xi nodded. Although it was only a few scattered fragments, it was enough to shake her previous trust in her own memories.
She never knew that memories could be deceiving.
She had to admit the hypnotist was indeed skilled, capable of altering people’s memories and even exerting mental control.
So, she hoped to spend more time with Guan Lei. Perhaps it would expedite the recovery of her true memories.
Shen Xi believed that this was her purpose, but inadvertently revealed a concern for Guan Lei that even she wasn’t aware of.
Sometimes, even with amnesia, even with manipulated consciousness, feelings of love could still seep out unintentionally, influencing decisions.
Hearing Shen Xi’s request to stay, Su Han was elated. The hope of Shen Xi recovering her memories made her even more ecstatic.
This meant her troublesome son would no longer have to face a lover who had lost her memory.
Su Han looked at her husband, Guan Yan, and shared a mutual joy.
“That’s great! If your memory can recover, Mom and Dad will stay here with you!” Lu Shan happily exclaimed.
Shen Xi shook her head in refusal. “It’s late already. Niom and Dad, you go back. I’ll be fine alone. I have medicine with me. Don’t worry; I won’t have any problems.
Lu Shan and Shen Yan exchanged glances, still somewhat uneasy.
Su Han approached Lu Shan, holding her hand, and said sincerely, ‘Don’t worry, sister. My husband and 1 are here too. We will take care of Xi.”
After some persuasion, Shen Xi managed to convince Lu Shan and Shen Yan to go home. To reassure them, she took pain medication in advance.
Su Han looked fondly at Shen Xi, thinking that Guan Lei hadn’t made a mistake in choosing her. Despite the pain she would endure by staying with Guan Lei, Shen Xi chose to be with him.
“Xi, Auntie will prepare some supper for you. Is there anything specific you’d like?” Su Han asked with a smile.
Shen Xi turned to Su Han, politely shaking her head. Before she could speak, a weak voice interrupted, “Xi likes almond tofu and delicate soup dumplings,
Mom. Buy more; I want to try them too.”
All eyes turned to Guan Lei, who had now opened his eyes.
Su Han burst into tears and rushed to his bedside, “Son, you finally woke up! Do you know how worried Mom was?”
Guan Lei tried to show Su Han a smile, but just lifting the corner of his lips triggered a violent cough.
Almost instinctively, Shen Xi reached out, running her hand gently along his chest, urgently saying, “Be careful. you have three holes in your body!”
Guan Lei was a bit slow to react. Since Shen Xi’s amnesia, he hadn’t experienced her caring for him so proactively.
Grasping Shen Xi’s soothing hand on his chest, he happily said, “Xi, you…”
Seemingly realizing that she had overstepped, Shen Xi immediately tried to withdraw her hand. However, Guan Lei, at this moment, didn’t comply with Shen Xi’s wish and held onto her hand tightly.
He was like a little puppy not willing to let go of its favorite toy.
Observing her son’s behavior, Su Han gave him a reproachful look and then turned to Shen Xi, saying, “Xi, stay here with Ah Lei for a while. His dad and I will go buy some supper for you both..”
