Chapter 322: Chapter 322: Heroine Wang Cuihua (Monthly Ticket 300+ more)

"If Suizi said she saw him, then she saw him." Yu Jingting spoke up.

Wang Cuihua stared at the young couple with tear-filled eyes, seemingly trying to judge the truth in their words.

"I swear on my own reputation, I truly saw him."

Yu Jingting squinted.

Suizi swallowed hard, pretending not to see his scrutinizing gaze, and continued.

"Jingting knows me best, the only time I’d be uncertain is when I swear on Chen Kaide. But I’m serious this time."

"Ah...." Wang Cuihua was taken aback.

She sat on the bed, holding her head in confusion.

"Then why didn’t you mention this before?"

"Because I——"

"She was afraid you’d worry. He’s been wandering outside for years without coming back, who knows if he’s gotten involved with other women."

Yu Jingting cut her off bluntly.

Wang Cuihua let out a wail, and Suizi’s heart twisted in sympathy.

She glared at Yu Jingting reproachfully. How could he be so blunt?

After a couple of sobs, Wang Cuihua jerked her head up, vigorously wiped her face with her hand, which startled Suizi.

"He wouldn’t dare. Even if I lent him some guts, he wouldn’t dare to have another woman."

"Um...." Suizi thought to herself, that was a sudden change of attitude.

"Place an advertisement for missing persons, find him!" Wang Cuihua clenched her teeth, "If he dared to start a family with another woman, I’ll break his legs."

Suizi: (ﾟдﾟ)???

What a strange reaction?!

That wasn’t what she had imagined at all.

"Do you mean, which leg?" Yu Jingting decided to add fuel to the fire.

"None of the three should be spared!" Wang Cuihua spoke tersely.

Suizi gasped, realizing her mother-in-law was quite the formidable woman.

"Well, I actually have a bold guess, Mother, Yang Liu said my dad was hit on the head, could it be possible that he lost his memory?"

Suizi didn’t want to make it sound so contrived, but only this explanation could make sense.

Given the deep affection between her parents-in-law, the biggest probability for not coming back for more than ten years was memory loss caused by a blow to the head.

As for how he remembered later, it must have been serendipity.

If we follow this assumption, all the inconsistencies would have a logical explanation.

"Can he even lose his memory?"

Wang Cuihua, who lived in a simple era, hadn’t been exposed to melodramatic stories or soap operas, was relatively unfamiliar with this term.

"The human brain is a complex organ; it could indeed lose memories if suffered an impact. If my father has indeed lost his memories and started a new family with another woman, what should we do?"

In the face of the Yu family’s peculiar reactions, Suizi found her own psychological resilience improving.

Her thoughts, which had been bothering her for a while, felt much lighter after speaking them out.

"If he truly forgot, let him be with whoever he wants, as long as he’s alive... But if he’s pretending to forget and fool around outside, I can forgive him, but Jiaojiao and Tiegen won’t, break both his legs to put us at peace!"

Wang Cuihua was resolute. Suizi was in awe.

A mother who raises two excellent children is no doubt exceptional herself. Her reaction speed and her ability to handle matters impressed Suizi.

"Alright, you two figure out how to place the missing person ad, I’m tired." Wang Cuihua waved the two children out of the room.

She took out a new sheet to change, but found her hands trembling.

A teardrop fell onto the light blue sheet, followed by another.

Her calm demeanor and decisiveness were nothing more than a show in front of her children.

Wang Cuihua cried as she made the bed, eventually laughing through her tears.

"You old devil, I knew you’re not dead. If you were really dead, how could you resist not visiting me in my dreams..."

When Yu Jingting returned to the room, he stared straight at Suizi with folded arms, his face clearly said: explain.

"I only said so because I saw Mother was upset." Suizi sighed.

It was easy to fool her mother-in-law, but it wouldn’t be so easy to deceive Yu Jingting.

Her stories were inconsistent and had flaws.

Suizi didn’t know how to make her story plausible.

"Did you really see him or not? Be honest." Yu Jingting asked.

"I saw him— but in my dreams, I didn’t know that was my father-in-law."

"So, you deceived mother with a dream?" Yu Jingting squinted his eyes and flatly denied it, "That’s not right, you wouldn’t say anything unless you’re sure. You have emphasized before that our father is not dead."

Merely based on a dream, cautious Teacher Xiaochen wouldn’t normally speak up.

With someone as logically clever as Yu Jingting, playacting would be tough.

Suizi felt that if she couldn’t give him a reasonable explanation this time, he might not trust her in the future.

"Jingting, don’t you feel my attitude towards you has changed? I mean, after Lun Lamei tricked me into the hospital and I almost had a miscarriage."

Yu Jingting sunk into his memories, his eyebrows scrunched tighter.

The recent comfortable days made him almost forget the discordant life when they just got married.

"It seems different— you’re not going to trick me into believing you were possessed by some Pig Spirit and you’re not actually my wife, are you?"

"If I were possessed, it would be by a fox spirit. What on earth is a Pig Spirit? Damn it, you’re leading me off-track!"

Frustrated, Suizi bit his hand, calming down before speaking again

"Actually, I had a dream in the hospital, a very long dream."

"I dreamed that I really had a miscarriage and ran away fearing your anger. Many years later, I saw our father and he’s still alive. The dream had many details, including the severe drought this and next year."

Suizi filled in the details of her past life as a dream, trying to keep it brief.

In fact, she wasn’t even sure herself if the experience of her past life was just a dream or if it had actually happened.

The happy and stable life she has now made her satisfied. Contrastively, the pain and loneliness of her previous life felt like a nightmare.

"So, when we were about to make a deal last time, you suddenly remembered your dream and stopped in time?" Yu Jingting asked.

Suizi nodded.

"I know it’s hard to believe if I talk about my experience. I was afraid that you wouldn’t believe me."

Yu Jingting fell silent and Suizi watched him nervously.

The room fell quiet.

Her stomach grumbled from hunger. Yu Jingting left the room and returned with a plate of cut fruits.

"Eat some fruit first, I’ll prepare a meal for you later."

"Do you believe me?" Suizi asked nervously, biting her fork.

She was afraid that Yu Jingting would ask more questions, that he wouldn’t believe her, and that he might distance himself from her.

Yu Jingting reached out and pinched her blushing cheek, "The next time you dream, don’t think about running away, I will never hit you."

He believed her, and Suizi was both moved and saddened.

"Is this peach that bad to make you cry?" Yu Jingting asked, seeing her quietly shedding tears.

Suizi shook her head.

"I feel sorry for myself in my dreams, it would have been better if I hadn’t run."

"You’re such a silly girl, it’s just a dream, dreams are usually the opposite of reality. You’re destined to be with me, forever. Eat quickly, after you’re full, think about how to place the missing person ad."
