After pondering seriously for a while, Qian Lingling asked, “So, President Xia, when you say you don’t know how to face her, does it mean that you’ll still have interactions in your work, and you’re afraid she might notice your memory loss?”
“No, it’s not…” Xia Shutong lowered her head and said weakly, “It seems she already know about my amnesia.”
No, not seems. She knows.
“Then do you remember the moments you spent with her before?” Qian Lingling asked again.
Xia Shutong replied, “No, I don’t remember.”
No, actually, she did remember a tiny bit, but it was too intense to mention.

She didn’t know.
But she knew that she didn’t dislike Yun Feiwu at all. Her heart would race and her legs would go weak when Yun Feiwu approached, and she had an instinctual desire to protect Yun Feiwu, to keep her within arm’s reach and shield her from everyone else
Yet, Xia Shutong couldn’t help but doubt if these feelings were merely instincts of her body.
“I think I used to have feelings for her…” Xia Shutong hesitated, “But now, I’m not sure. However, I definitely don’t dislike her.
Divorce seemed a bit extreme, but as Qian Lingling had suggested, if she couldn’t determine her feelings for Yun Feiwu, maintaining the current status quo might hurt her more.
Xia Shutong continued, “Also, she… she has an important job right now. I can’t let her emotions be affected and distract her.”
Qian Lingling’s eyes flickered, it seemed that the manager from the Public Relations Department was working on the next major project and was currently engaged in it.
Qian Lingling put herself in the shoes of the manager, Chen Xiao, and said, “President Xia, you can wait until her project is completed to talk to her. Whether it’s about divorce or honestly explaining your current situation, you can wait until then. Hmm… you can also give her some time off, then assign her a business trip when she returns. This way, it won’t impact her work, and you won’t feel too awkward in the future.”
Xia Shutong: “…”
Have a heart-to-heart talk with Yun Feiwu?
Wasn’t that the approach she had thought of before discovering the marriage certificate? Now, there was just an additional complication about their marriage.
But it seems like there was no other way.
Previously, Xia Shutong had wanted to resolve the situation with Yun Feiwu quickly because she didn’t know they were already married. She had thought Yun Feiwu had been deceived by her and simply fall in love with her. Clarifying things would surely convince Yun Feiwu to move on.
Now, things were much more complicated.
The relationship between her and Yun Feiwu was likely far more intricate than she had imagined, even resembling a melodramatic soap opera.
If Xia Shutong were to truthfully tell Yun Feiwu about her condition now, it might not only fail to persuade her but also affect her work, leading to more harm than good.
Moreover, it wasn’t just Yun Feiwu. Xia Shutong herself needed time to process this series of events.
For now, all she could do was delay, until after the shoot was over.
But it couldn’t be just about buying time, from Yun Feiwu’s perspective, if her deeply loved partner, who now suffered from amnesia, avoided her every day, it would be incredibly painful.
Eventually, what’s bound to happen will happen.
So, before that, she needs to stabilize her emotions, which are as uncertain as clouds and mist.
Xia Shutong rubbed her fingers against her chin, her thoughts gradually becoming clearer. She got up and said, “Xiao Qian, I know what to do now. Thank you for your help tonight. Rest well in your room.”
After returning to her room upstairs, Xia Shutong still had trouble falling asleep.
She went to the balcony for a while to catch some breeze, then came back and looked at her marriage certificate for a while. As dawn was approaching, Xia Shutong drifted into a hazy sleep.
She had a slight headache. She dreamt about various scenarios but couldn’t remember them clearly.
Scenes in the dream constantly shifted between black and white, reality and illusion, dizzying and uncomfortable. It felt more like a nightmare than a dream.
Xia Shutong endured this discomfort as she slept for a few hours, until her alarm clock rang, and she reluctantly opened her eyes.
Her head felt heavy, as if it were carrying a weight.
Her eyes also felt sore.
Her throat seemed a bit dry.
Struggling to sit up in bed, as soon as her feet touched the ground, she felt weak and almost fell.
It was then that Xia Shutong realized that she was feeling extremely unwell.
*Cough, cough…*
She had just settled back onto the bed when a dry cough escaped her throat.
Xia Shutong blinked in a daze, then touched her forehead with the back of her hand, confirming one thing — it was probably due to spending too much time in the cold breeze outside the window last night. She seemed to have caught a cold and developed a fever.
