Chapter 2353: Chapter 2357: Why?

"Five years ago, I always thought about bringing you here someday to relive old memories. I didn’t expect that when we returned, it would be five years later." Leng Zimo ran his fingers through her long hair, his tone tinged with emotion.

"That’s because you were too busy, wasn’t it?" Luo Xiaoqian said, nestled in his embrace.

"No, it’s because some things happened during that time, and we were separated for five years." Leng Zimo tightened his arms around her, "We’ve only been back together for a few months."

"Really?" Luo Xiaoqian looked surprised, "Why?"

"It’s all my fault." Leng Zimo lowered his gaze to her, "I didn’t manage to protect you and Mo Mo."

"I don’t believe it, it surely wasn’t your fault." Luo Xiaoqian said.

Though she didn’t know the exact reasons behind it, she firmly believed that it couldn’t possibly be Leng Zimo’s fault.

Seeing the trust in her eyes, Leng Zimo’s heart ached, and he instinctively tightened his arms around her, holding her close and tenderly uttering, "Little Fool."

Even without remembering, she still trusted him and stood by him, how could he not be moved?

Luo Xiaoqian slowly stretched out her arms, embracing his neck.

Although she’s not quite used to such naked closeness with him yet, she knows that she will adapt to it because she wants to spend her life with this man.

Her gaze traveled from his neck, just catching sight of the bedside table. As she glanced at the small bedside table, fleeting images flickered before her eyes—

Clothes neatly placed on the bedside table...

On the hotel notepad, his domineeringly simple two words, "Wait for me"

A platinum card sweeping across the air landing on the table, "I want you!"

"No!" That was her voice.

"Kiss me!"

"Not the face!"

...

Her head suddenly throbbed with a sharp pain, Luo Xiaoqian raised her hand to press against her aching temple.

"Xiao Qian?" Noticing she seemed unwell, Leng Zimo nervously sat upright and helped her up, "What’s wrong?"

"Study, there’s a study here, right?" Luo Xiaoqian asked while holding her head, "I want to go check it out."

"I’ll carry you there."

She crawled off the bed, Leng Zimo hurriedly grabbed the duvet and draped it over her, then lifted her in his arms, heading towards the study.

Luo Xiaoqian’s hand slipped down, touching his side waist.

In her mind, images of the days spent in his office together flashed, that day, he also carried her towards the bathroom, with nothing on their bodies.

The scenes flickered chaotically in her head, her head aching more intensely, as if it was about to split open.

"Ah..."

Luo Xiaoqian curled up in pain, eventually unable to endure it, she fainted in his arms.

"Xiao Qian?!"

Leng Zimo shouted urgently.

...

...

When Luo Xiaoqian regained consciousness again, it was already afternoon.

Upon opening her eyes, the first thing she saw was Leng Zimo’s face, his eyebrows furrowed full of worry.

"Xiao Qian, how are you?"

"I’m... fine." Luo Xiaoqian managed a smile for him, her eyes quickly scanning the surroundings.

Dr. Yin Yi, Leng Lin, and Luo Jun were all present.

"Xiao Qian." As Luo Xiaoqian woke up, Dr. Yin Yi immediately moved to her other side, "How are you feeling now, do you still remember me?"

"You’re Dr. Yin." Luo Xiaoqian said.

"Do you remember the incidents on the island?" Dr. Yin Yi asked again.

Luo Xiaoqian nodded.

"I remember all of it, but..." She pursed her lips, "Dr. Yin, why can’t I recall past events?"
