After delivering the bombshell news, Qin's Mom and Qin Rong anxiously watched Ji Fei.
Sure enough, the next second, Ji Fei's thoughts came rushing like a storm.
[Amnesia! Is it real or fake? Let me see! Holy crap! It's true, and it's that dramatically selective kind where she only forgets one person! She's completely forgotten Sheng Wenyue from start to finish!]
Qin's Mom and Qin Rong thought: The doctors on Qin Yan's side are still investigating, but as expected, Ji Fei's gossip network is the fastest. This is too dramatic - she only forgot Sheng Wenyue?!
[How much must one hate a person for the body to choose to forget all love and hatred related to him?! But won't this make her vulnerable to Sheng Wenyue's manipulation? What if he shamelessly begs to remarry... Yikes~]
Qin's Mom and Qin Rong: Yikes~
[What to do, I'm so curious how Sheng Wenyue will react to an amnesiac Ruan Jia!]
Qin's Mom and Qin Rong were also extremely curious.
So the three exchanged glances.
"We've never visited Big Sister's workplace before," Ji Fei spoke up.
Qin's Mom and Qin Rong nodded, indicating they hadn't either.
"Shall we go visit Big Sister together?" Ji Fei suggested.
Qin's Mom and Qin Rong quickly turned to prepare for the outing.
When they arrived at the hospital, Qin Yan only then received a call to come down and meet them.
The three were initially a bit nervous, but as soon as Qin Yan greeted them, she excitedly said: "Quick, come with me. The Sheng family of three already knows about Ruan Jia's condition and they're in her room now."
The three: !!!!
And so the gossip quartet headed to Ruan Jia's hospital room, under the guise of visiting a patient.
Just as they reached the door, they heard Sheng Wenyue's hoarse voice, full of emotion and pain: "Ruan Jia, do you really not remember me? I'm your husband!"
The gossip quartet all shuddered uncomfortably, feeling somewhat concerned.
Then they heard Ruan Jia's voice, upbeat and clear like a vigilant college girl facing strangers, brimming with a certain vitality.
"I may not remember you in my memories, but I'm not stupid. I know you're Uncle and Auntie Sheng's son, my childhood friend, and we got married. But we're divorced now. I have photos of the divorce agreement and property settlement on my phone. There's a wedding ring in the trash can, so stop trying to fool me. You can only be considered my ex-husband now."
"That was an accident, we were planning a fake divorce, I never intended to..."
"Stop right there. I don't care what you originally planned. I know myself, and I'm not the type to play along with such silly games. I never make rash decisions about anything. Even if I've forgotten, I trust my decision at the time. It must mean I didn't want you anymore, so that's that! Don't think you can trick me, it's not happening!"
As Ji Fei and the others entered, they saw Ruan Jia with a savvy 'don't try to fool me' expression. Though still frail with a white bandage around her head, her eyes were bright and alert.
She no longer focused solely on Sheng Wenyue as she used to. As soon as she noticed the newcomers, her attention immediately shifted to Ji Fei and the others.
"Ah, it's you, Teacher Ji Fei. Hello, I remember you. You helped me out at the mall that time. I've also seen you online. Thank you for that scene you acted out - it was a big help to me." Ruan Jia smiled brightly, sincerely expressing her gratitude. That stage play had relieved her anxiety about her memory loss.
Ji Fei smiled and said, "I heard you woke up, so I came to visit."
[I never imagined that without Sheng Wenyue's interference, she'd be such a vibrant person.]
The Qin family trio also felt it was unbelievable. She seemed like a completely different person.
They had all met Ruan Jia before and felt she was like a withering flower, gradually fading away. But now, she was like a seed just breaking through the soil.
Ji Fei's gaze swept the room. She saw Sheng Wenyue kneeling by the hospital bed, in a pitiful, pleading posture. Sheng's father and mother stood nearby, wiping away tears.
In the moment Ruan Jia spoke to Ji Fei, Sheng Wenyue froze. The feeling of being completely ignored by someone who once loved him wholeheartedly was terrifying.
"Ruan Jia!" Sheng Wenyue anxiously tried to grab Ruan Jia's hand, saying, "Look at me. Even if you've forgotten, you should still feel something. You love me. You've loved me for so many years. I'm begging you, Ruan Jia. I'm begging you, I really can't live without you, I really..."
Unable to continue, he broke down sobbing.
But Ruan Jia wasn't falling for it. She avoided his touch with disgust, not giving him any chance to make contact.
"I loved you for many years? Then I must have been blind. You cheated on me four years ago, you scumbag. What's there to love about you? Your disloyalty? Your disrespect? And I even gave up my dreams for you. Did you put me under a spell or something?" After saying this, Ruan Jia touched her head in utter disbelief.
Perhaps it was the genuinely disgusted look in her eyes that pierced Sheng Wenyue, leaving him stunned.
Sheng's father and mother couldn't help but speak up, their voices trembling and cautious.
"This foolish boy has wronged you. He was just confused, lacking judgment and clarity. But he truly loves you. In the days waiting for you to wake up, he didn't eat or drink, like a dead man. We believe you're in his heart."
"We hate this boy too, but... could you give him a chance? Since you've forgotten the bad things, why not let him take care of you for life?"
The gossip quartet found these words quite exasperating.
Fortunately, Ruan Jia wasn't confused anymore.
"Uncle, Auntie, since he's the one who wronged me, I won't apologize. You've watched me grow up, so you should understand my personality. I could never be with someone I don't love, let alone knowing he's done so many things to hurt me. I don't even want to see him now. If he keeps appearing in front of me, I feel like I'll need another surgery."
Ruan Jia held her recently operated head, looking pained.
This made the gossip quartet chuckle.
"Sheng Wenyue, an ex should be like someone who's dead. If we part ways amicably without entanglement, I might think a bit better of you." With that, Ruan Jia waved her hand and said, "Uncle, Auntie, please take him away. I don't want my recovery disturbed."
Sheng Wenyue's body swayed, almost unable to keep kneeling. "Ruan Jia, Ruan Jia, I really know I was wrong. I only realize now that you're the only one in my heart. The others were just illusions, I..."
"Is that so?" Ruan Jia suddenly raised an eyebrow and spoke, picking up her phone nearby and tapping something. Then she began to read seriously: "October 10th. I finally know why Wenyue has been cold to me lately. He got drunk and hugged me, calling out 'Jiajia, don't go,' then kissed me and even tried to embrace me. I was disgusted. He never calls me Jiajia, that's not me. So I did some digging and found out that a Jiajia left a year ago."
At these words, Sheng Wenyue's face turned pale, his pupils trembling in disbelief.
The gossip quartet were revolted. They all looked at Sheng Wenyue with disdain.
"And you say I'm the only one?" Ruan Jia continued mockingly: "October 12th. I've decided not to tell Sheng Wenyue about my pregnancy. This child can't be kept. If I decide to leave him, it would be too unfair to the child. He doesn't deserve to be the father of my child right now."
Upon hearing this, it was as if the air around him froze. Sheng Wenyue stared at Ruan Jia in shock, as if someone had gripped his throat, his eyes reddening. "A child? We had a child?"
