Chapter 454 She Remembers Everything

“You have been working hard all the time and you are always optimistic. Yi Yunrui can stand that while I can’t.” As if Xia Ning’s words hit his pain, Gu Luan says excitedly, “Every time, he leaves you alone to face everything by yourself. He is not good enough to be your husband! I fell in love with you when we were in America. Ning, I can’t just stand quietly to watch you to be bullied! So, I did something for you. I made the decisions for you! You deserve a better life…”

“In order to get the better life you mentioned, you exchange a person’s life for that?” If she agrees with Gu Luan, she becomes the accomplice. Xia Ning feels sorry for Aunt Zhou!

Gu Luan hesitates for a while. His eyes gleam. He shakes his head, “No. No. I didn’t expect that Zhou Mengyao would die. I just didn’t want you to stay in Junhao Group. I want you to stay in front of me unworriedly. I will protect you very well. As long as we set up the relationship, Ning, I don’t mind taking it slowly. I know that one day you will like me. And finally, one day, you will leave Yi Yunrui and come to stay with me!”

As long as they set up the relationship, he can wait? He even doesn’t mind sharing her with someone else and making himself the fallback of her marriage?

God. What a weird love philosophy?

She feels it horrible!

That is very weird. As a conservative woman, she really can’t understand that!

However, she remembers another man also said so. It is Ou Yixuan!

How can that happen?

She thought that Gu Luan and Ou Yixuan are two totally different men. How can they do something so similar?

“Gu Luan.” She feels shocked by the truth. She hesitates for quite a while before she responds, “Love is not of force, but support. I am sorry, I can’t understand what you say. I don’t agree with what you have done, either! Based on what you say, I am the indirect murderer of Aunt Zhou…”

When she says this, Xia Ning takes a deep breath, “I am really useless. Aunt Zhou, I am sorry. I am really useless…”

“Ning, please don’t do that. It is all my fault. Don’t blame yourself for that. The death of Zhou Mengyao is an accident. She treated you so well. I didn’t expect it would end up like this. I am thinking that if only I could never wake up from the accident…”

Never wake up…

Xia Ning feels her heart tightened. Some scenes pop up in her brain.

“Ning, wake up. Wake up!”

“Ning, no. Don’t leave me…”

‘Ning, your grandma is here. I am here… Ning, don’t fall asleep. Open your eyes…”

“All your family are tricky foxes. You make a tricky plan and want to become the daughter-in-law of the Yi family! No way! Get out. Go away as far as you can!”

“Leave B City within a week. Or, you may blame yourself for the consequences!”

Blame yourself for the consequences!

The scenes and the words repeat inside Xia Ning’s brain as if they are bullets from a machine gun shooting at her. Xia Ning feels great pressure come to her. In an instant, she can hardly breathe as if her chest is pressed by something.

Something is trying to rush out of her brain. She feels her head ache and is in a mess!

“You bitch!”

“Get out from B City!”

“You want to work at my son? No way!”

…

“Ah!” Xia Ning holds her head and cries painfully. She wants to get away from the scenes in her brain, but there come more and she can’t stop remembering them!

The information roars to her like the waters. She feels her head so painful as if it is going to explode!

“No. Stop. No more speaking! You all shut up!” Xia Ning cries loudly and then she feels it dark in front of her and she faints to fall to the ground.

Before she loses her consciousness, she sees that the door is opened and Yi Yunrui rushes in…

Twenty-five years ago.

The military compound and the governmental compound were just separated by a street. They couldn’t be nearer.

Xia Ning liked most to play with two big sisters in the governmental compound, because they were very nice. They were not like the others who discriminated against her.

She didn’t know why other people would do that to her. She hated the people in the governmental compound for their gossiping about her grandma.

She didn’t like to hear them call her grandma home wrecker and accuse her of ruining other people’s happiness, because that made her grandma feel sad.

However, the two big sisters never said that. So, she was willing to stay with them.

“Ning, look. The brother at the gate of the compound looks handsome. It is strange. He stands there all day long, but he doesn’t come to play with us.” The oldest sister Pingping pointed at the door and said.

Ning blinked her eyes. It was right. That big brother stood there and looked at them for a long time. And he looked really handsome.

Except for her grandma, the big brother was the most good-looking person she had ever met.

The two big sisters discussed and laughed. Ning pursed her lips and took some surprising actions.

She went directly to the big brother and held out her little hand when the big brother looked at her in surprise, “Big brother, what’s your name? You are good-looking. Why don’t we make friends and play together in the future?”

The big brother looked at Xia Ning’s hand. He felt stunned for quite a while. He moved his hand, but in the end, he ran away.

Xia Ning scratched her head. She cocked her head, “The big brother is strange.”

However, the next day, the big brother showed up at the gate again. This time, Ning still took the initiative to invite him. The big brother hesitated for a while and then took out three lollipops. He gave them one for each. Then, he said nothing and went away.

From that day on, the big brother brought some small gifts to them every time he came. So, Xia Ning and her friends all liked to see the big brother.

Till one day, the two big sisters were not with Xia Ning while that big brother showed up again.

This time, Xia Ning ran to him happily. She took the big brother’s hand at once, “Big brother, play with me. The big sisters are not here.”

The big brother looked at her for quite a while and then he nodded. He saw the sweats on Xia Ning’s forehead. He points at the opposite of the street, “Wait for me for a while, I go to buy some ice-cream and drink for you.”

Then, the big brother went directly to the opposite of the street.

Maybe he was too hurried or because of other reasons, the big brother didn’t notice that a car was approaching. Xia Ning feels worried. She rushed to him and cried, “Big Brother, watch out!”

She forcefully pushed the big brother away. Then her body was hit and floated up in the air. When she fell onto the ground, she lost her consciousness…

When she opened her eyes again, she felt her head painful. Everything around is white. She saw a lot of people in the ward, including her grandma, her mother, her father and many other people she didn’t know. She saw her grandma crying while her parents very angry.

“Hum. Saved my son? That’s ridiculous. All you people are malicious! How can I know it was not a trick planned by you! You want to get connected with the Yi family? No way! I found that girl plan something on Rui before. All that you people have done are dirty things! I warn you. As long as I am alive, you may drop the idea you have on my son!”

Then, the woman named Zheng Yao tore off a piece of paper and threw it onto the ground, “The money is enough for your family to live for some time. I warn you. Get out from here within a week. Or, you may blame yourselves for the consequences!”

Xia Ning felt her head so painful that she could not speak. She wanted to say something. She didn’t like the woman. However, she saw darkness in front of her and fell unconscious again.

When she woke up again, she had forgotten many things.

“No. It is not true!”

Xia Ning cries in a loud voice and opens her eyes.

Everything is white around her. Based on the setting, she must be in the ward of the hospital.

She feels the warmth in her hand. Someone is holding her tightly. A big hand strokes her forehead. A magnetic and gentle voice is heard, “Sweetheart, did you have a nightmare? Don’t be afraid. I am here with you.”

Xia Ning turns around and sees Yi Yunrui looking tenderly at her. In an instant, she remembers everything that happened over twenty years ago.

That very handsome big brother was Yi Yunrui!

Yi Yunrui finds his wife stare at him for quite a while without saying anything. He gently smiles, “Is the dream scary? Are you frightened? Let me get some water for you.”

Then, Yi Yunrui stands up.

“Why didn’t you look at the road condition when you went to buy the ice-cream?”

Hearing this, Yi Yunrui’s tall back suddenly turns frozen!

“Darling, at that time what did you look at? Why didn’t you come to play with us instead of just looking at us?”

Yi Yunrui clenches his hands. He didn’t respond for quite a while.

Xia Ning slowly sits up. She says, “It is hard to imagine that you were such a careless boy at that time. If I reacted a little slowly, what would happen…?”

Yi Yunrui feels his heart ache. He turns around and holds Xia Ning into his embrace, “You… you remember everything?”

Xia Ning wonders if she has an illusion. She feels that Yi Yunrui is slightly trembling as if he is trying hard to restrain himself.

“Hum.” Xia Ning nods, “I remember that you brought quite some good things to me. And I wanted to meet you every day.”

They lived in the governmental compound, but Xia Ning had a poor life when she was a kid. Her family were discriminated against because of her grandmother’s history. It was hard for her parents to find a job in B City. Her parents even seldom bought candies for her. Every time, Yi Yunrui brought her the things she wanted to have most. So, she was very impressed by the big brother and liked him very much.

Yi Yunrui opens his mouth. He wants to speak but says nothing. He repeats his actions several times. Then, he closes his eyes. As if he has made up his mind, he asks, “So… you also remember what my mother did?”

Xia Ning’s eyes slightly darken. She nods.
