Chapter 1913
I hadn’t been hydrated for over two hours, and when I was nervous about being a thief, I got thirsty easily, so when I reached the stairs, I turned back to the kitchen to find some water.
I froze for a moment and looked towards the door to see Gu Han standing by the railing on the first floor in his grey silk pyjamas, looking down indifferently.
Before I could think of an explanation, Gu Han opened his mouth first, “There’s no water in the room?”
I accepted such a thoughtful excuse without even thinking about it and nodded obediently, “Well, I was thirstier than usual today and drank a bit more water.”
“Hmm.” Gu Han nodded slightly and after a silent moment added, “Remember to turn on the lights when you go downstairs at night in future, no need to save my electricity.”
I was about to sigh in relief at the joke when I heard him say, “I’ll go with you tomorrow to choose two sets of pajamas.”
With that, he disappeared into the first floor corridor.
I was left, reacting for a while, before staring afterwards at the clothes I was about to change out of, for a long time.
……
I don’t know if it’s because women are naturally maternal in their bones, but after seeing Murong Zhian, I tossed and turned all night and couldn’t sleep.
The actual fact is that you can’t get a good deal of time to get to the kitchen.
Every day, Gu Han’s family has food delivered to them, so the kitchen was full of ingredients.
It was strange, perhaps out of survival instinct, that every time I saw an ingredient, the recipe would naturally pop into my head, so I simply picked two or three and washed them, and cooked them slowly.
“So nice to cook yourself today?”
I was warming up milk at the cooking table when Gu Han appeared.
“I couldn’t sleep, so I thought I’d try my hand at it, not realising I could actually cook.”
It was a bit of a surprise to me that I didn’t know how to cook.
I don’t remember who told me, “Girls learn to cook from having the one they love.”
Maybe it was because once upon a time when Gu Han and I were in the thick of things, I used to wash my hands of each other for the sake of our feelings for each other.
Gu Han stared at me for a few seconds, his eyebrows gradually tinged with a gentle smile, “You have not yet fully recovered, don’t be too tired, just leave these things to the maids at home.”
“I’m not tired, I know what I’m doing, I feel stronger when I move around.”
Just after he finished the milk was also heated up, he poured two cups by hand and took the cups towards the dining room, “Okay, let’s eat breakfast.”
After sitting down and eating for a while, Gu Han then said, “I have to go back to the company for a meeting in the morning, after that, I will come back and take you out for dinner.”
“No need to go to all that trouble, it’s fine to make something at home.” I blurted out.
Gu Han was silent for a moment, but finally insisted, “Just wait until I get back.”
I was helpless, “You don’t have to be so cautious, I only have memory loss, not a disability, I still have the basic ability to take care of myself, if I continue to put my hands on my clothes and eat, my limbs will degenerate.”
Gu Han laughed it off and did not continue to answer the question.
After breakfast, Gu Han went back to the office, and while the maids helped in the kitchen, I took my gardening tools and went to the front of the villa to trim the flowers.
While I was watering the flowers with a watering can, I suddenly noticed two blurred figures in my eyes and when I looked over, I saw two sneaky people, a man and a woman, outside the fence.
The man was heavily armed, but the woman was unconcerned, wearing a long beige trench coat with a long floral skirt, keeping her warm but not losing her poise, with large sunglasses on her face, she was sultry.
I looked at her blankly for a few seconds and was considering whether to call someone.
Suddenly, the cool woman ran in along the fence with her sunglasses off and came straight at me.

The thin clatter of high heels scared me, and by the time I reacted, the woman had already encircled me whole in her arms.
“Shen Shu, it’s really you! I thought Zuo Xicheng was mistaken!”
I couldn’t figure out what was going on at all, and was motionless as she held me in her arms for a long time before I tentatively asked, “Excuse me Miss please ……”
“Who are you embarrassed with, I’m Mo Fei Lin ah!”
Mo Fei Lin let go of me, gaze back and forth, eyes immediately red, “are thin off the face, almost I did not recognize!”
After six years of lying down, the change in appearance is not a half a star, naturally, plus the lack of rest last night, the face is indeed a little worse than before.
But after staring at the woman for a few moments, I wasn’t able to recall the connection with each other, “Mophilyn is your name?”
“Yeah, Mophilyn is me, I’m Mophilyn ……” Mofilin said, her voice gradually becoming smaller, unconsciously choking up.
The spontaneous and quick-witted woman suddenly looked down and wiped away her tears.
Then, simply did not hide, crying to himself, the voice is very aggravated.
“You woman, why didn’t you look for me when you came back, do you know how hard we looked for you!”
“Philine.”
The heavily armed man followed him in at that moment and, seeing this, put a heartfelt hand on the woman’s shoulder and whispered comfort.
He took off his hat to reveal his face, and it was only then that I recognised it as Zuo Xicheng, whom I had met in the restaurant that day.
The fact that the two of them were together meant that this Miss Mo knew me too, but I really couldn’t recall anything at all, even if she was crying so sadly now, I didn’t even know if I should voice out to comfort her, “Miss Mo, calm down.”
However, when Mo Fei Lin heard this “Miss Mo”, she became even more agitated, “Who are you calling, you can forget all about us after six years of disappearance!
There is a saying that a man should not cry lightly because he has not yet reached the point of grief, Mo Fei Lin does not look like a pretentious woman, but at this moment she is crying like a pity, and the make-up around her eyes is half smudged.
I had no choice but to take her in first.
Mo Fei Lin went to the toilet to fix her make-up and when she came out again, her mood was much calmer.
The maids brought up hot tea, so I asked them to leave and poured it myself, one cup at a time.
Mo Fei Lin sat on the sofa without blinking her eyelids, staring at me motionlessly, as if I would disappear if I blinked.
All I could do in response was to smile apologetically as she looked at me and slowly handed over the water, “How have you been these past few years?”
Maureen took the glass of water and put it straight on the table, nodding her head and asking me in return, “How about you, how have you changed so much?”
I laughed at her nervous expression, “Nothing much, I slept for a long time and when I woke up, I was the same as I am now, and ……”
“I understand, it doesn’t matter if you forget, there’s still half a lifetime ahead, just grasp the future.” Mo Fei Lin’s tone was full of heartache and tolerance.
Zuo Xicheng should have mentioned the memory loss to her long ago, it seems that I am alive, is already a great surprise.
The way she moved, I had to believe that once upon a time we were good girlfriends who pushed each other’s buttons.
I thought for sure that I would find some memories of the past from Maureen, but unfortunately things don’t always work out that way.
Maureen just questioned me about everything since I had gotten sober.
