l just happened to witness the attack, so I stayed with Xi. The doctor said that during the resuscitation, Shen Xi might have taken me as a source of psychological security, which is why she was holding onto me so tightly now, Gu Chen explained patiently.

His tone was calm, as if he were merely stating a fact.

Guan Lei s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Shen Yan and Lu Shan.

Both of them nodded in resignation, confirming what Gu Chen had said.

Guan Lei furrowed his brow in disbelief. How could this be?

Guan Lei sat on the other side of Shen Xis hospital bed, as if he were challenging Gu Chen, and took Shen Xis other hand.

Just then, Shen Xis eyes moved, and slowly, in the antic.i.p.ation of everyone, she opened them.

Lu Shan quickly approached Shen Xi, anxiously asking, Xi, how are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort?

Shen Xis gaze remained a bit hazy as it slowly sharpened on Lu Shan. She asked with a hint of confusion, Mom? Mom, what happened to me?

Upon hearing Shen Xis words, Lu Shan felt a wave of relief. She still recognized people, indicating that there might not be any major issues with her mind.

At this moment, Shen Yan also asked hurriedly, Xi, what about me? Who am I?

Shen Xi furrowed her brow and looked at Shen Yan as if he were a bit silly, then replied, Dad, whats wrong with you? Why are you asking such strange questions?

Shen Yan and his wife finally relaxed. Everything was fine, and it was all that mattered.

Guan Leis heart also eased a bit, and he said, holding Shen Xis hand, Xi, you scared me. Thank goodness youre okay.

Shen Xis gaze turned somewhat wooden as she looked at Guan Lei, then furrowed her brow and said, Guan Lei?

Before Guan Lei could respond, Shen Xi coldly withdrew her hand from his grip and said, Guan Lei, Ive already told you, Im with Gu Chen now. In the future, we should keep our distance.

Shen Xis words. .h.i.t like a bomb, exploding in everyones hearts.

The most incredulous person among them was Guan Lei, who asked in disbelief, Xi, what are you saying? Youre with Gu Chen now?

At that moment, Gu Chen, in a cautious tone, asked, Xi, did you make a mistake?

Shen Xi turned to look at Gu Chen, her expression initially confused, but her eyes gradually cleared.

Gu Chen, what mistake? Didnt we agree to be together? Didnt we say that once we have our medical checkup tomorrow, wed tell our parents? Whats wrong? Are you having second thoughts? Do you want to abandon me like you did four years ago? Shen Xi looked at Gu Chen, her eyes full of anger.

As Shen Xi spoke, she became increasingly agitated, vehemently shaking off Gu Chens hand and clutching her head, which was starting to hurt a bit. She continued, Gu Chen, if you dare

Before Shen Xi could finish her sentence, Gu Chen quickly grabbed her hand and said, Xi, calm down. 1 wont abandon you. Well be together forever. Just calm down, please.

Guan Lei was stunned in place, unable to comprehend how his relations.h.i.+p with Shen Xi had suddenly turned into a matter between Gu Chen and Shen Xi.

Even Shen Yan and Lu Shan, who were standing nearby, were dumbfounded. Just a couple of days ago, Shen Xi had been deeply in love with Guan Lei, and they had already convinced their parents to support them.

How could this have happened today?

Lu Shan pulled Gu Chen aside and held Shen Xis hand, asking, Xi, think about it carefully. Four years ago, who were you with? And who are you with

Shen Xi looked at Lu Shan with confusion and said, Mom, why are you asking this question? Its obviously Gu Chen. We agreed a few days ago that once Gu Chen and I complete the medical checkup as you suggested, wed be together, didnt we?

At this point, everyone realized that there was indeed something wrong with Shen Xis memory.

Guan Leis suspicious gaze turned to Gu Chen, and his voice grew stern as he questioned, Gu Chen, did you do something?

l have no idea whats going on. Maybe we should have Xi examined by a doctor? Gu Chen replied, looking innocent.

Shen Xi impatiently said, Examine what? Theres nothing wrong with me.. Why are you all acting so weird?
