Chapter 333: 334 Memory (before dawn)

"How many days have I been in a coma?" Chu Jin continued to ask.

Zi pinched her fingers to calculate, then spoke, "A full eighteen days."

"Eighteen days?" Chu Jin was somewhat surprised. She felt as if she had only slept for one night, and unexpectedly, eighteen days had passed.

In those eighteen days, she hadn’t sent out a single message.

Her teachers and classmates must have been extremely worried by now, and considering the dates, the high-stakes exams should be just around the corner.

To think she was absent on such an important day.

Zi went on to say, "Jin, let’s hurry and leave this place, I always feel that this isn’t a good place."

The aura here was too strange, and it gave Zi a vague sense of crisis.

Moreover, there were two terrifying powers coexisting around her.

If these two forces were to intertwine, they could potentially engulf her at any moment.

Chu Jin nodded, just as she tried to step out of the bed, her head swam with darkness, and she was suddenly enveloped in a firm and powerful embrace, almost completely unguarded.

His strength was immense, his body trembling lightly, as if determined to merge her into his flesh and blood to be content.

This embrace was familiar, with a cool mint scent mixed with a faint smell of tobacco about her nose--pleasant and secure.

Her face pressed tightly against his chest, the only sound in her ears was his steady and powerful heartbeat.

Only then did Chu Jin realize that this man’s body was devoid of any warmth, cold throughout like the ice of winter.

He was somehow familiar, yet also strange.

Familiar enough that she couldn’t reject his embrace.

"Jin, you’ve finally woken up," the man finally spoke after a long pause.

His deep voice seemed to be holding back something.

As Dai Yu watched the two embrace, her steps suddenly froze. She looked up to the Elder Xu Kong beside her and spoke softly, "Master... what about them?"

Her tone was as usual, revealing nothing out of the ordinary.

Her large, sparkling eyes also showed no other emotions, just like an innocent and ignorant little girl.

But Elder Xu Kong saw doubt and concern in that gaze and whispered in response, "Don’t worry, since I promised you, I will certainly not break my word."

"Okay, Master, I trust you," Dai Yu nodded slowly.

Mo Zhixuan held her like that for a long time before he slowly let go. He crouched down with his hands on her shoulders to look at her at eye level, his expression tense as he asked, "Jin, how do you feel now? Is there any discomfort?"

Chu Jin looked at him, her clear pupils reflecting only his figure — somewhat precious, somewhat aloof, somewhat scholarly...

He was a man full of danger and allure.

Mature and steady despite having weathered countless experiences.

In his deep phoenix eyes, she could also see her own reflection.

This man was so familiar. Chu Jin thought hard for a long time before she finally opened her mouth slowly, "Sir, do we know each other?"

Her clear voice traveled through the air, reaching everyone’s ears.

Dai Yu inexplicably let out a sigh of relief.

Her palm was sweaty; her master had indeed not broken his promise.

"Master, thank you," Dai Yu said gratefully as she looked towards Elder Xu Kong.

Hearing this, Mo Zhixuan’s breath hitched, and he tried to keep his tone as calm as possible, "Jin, are you joking with me?"

Chu Jin shook her head, her eyelashes fluttering lightly, "Sir, I truly don’t recognize you."

"Then do you remember Mo Qingyi?"

"I do, she’s my best friend."

"What about Miao Xinran?"

"I remember."

"And Qin Zhenglin?"

Chu Jin nodded.

She remembered all these people, but she had forgotten him, the man before her.

Just who was he?

Chu Jin also felt a headache coming on; her memories of him were a blank space in her mind.

It was as if this person had never appeared in her life.

Yet this person also gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Mo Zhixuan listed many names in succession, unaware that she had already integrated into his life so seamlessly.

He knew her better than he knew himself.

Now, only one name remained.

This name drove him to madness with jealousy.

He knew that Chu Jin was injured while trying to save Song Shiqin.

Could it be that his girl had fallen for someone else?

Mo Zhixuan lifted his gaze towards Chu Jin, his deep eyes dark as the abyss, "And... Song Shiqin?"

Chu Jin still nodded, "I remember."

A bitter smile crossed Mo Zhixuan’s lips as he caressed her cheek, his touch lingering, his eyes filled with longing, "Do you only forget me?"

His tone was heavy, as if he were both questioning and answering himself and Chu Jin.

Chu Jin did not mind his gesture, just slightly furrowing her brows.

Who exactly was he?

Ostensibly, she had known him before; otherwise, he wouldn’t understand her so well.

He was familiar with every person she knew.

Her head began to hurt as if memories had been forcibly stripped from her brain.

Chu Jin had no choice but to seek help from Zi in the Thunder Space, "Zi, what’s going on here? Could it be that I’ve lost my memory?"

But Zi was huddled in a corner of the space, shivering into a ball, "Big, big boss..."

That fearful look! It was clear that she wasn’t thinking straight anymore.

Chu Jin frowned, "...What use are you to me?"

"Since you have forgotten, then let me help you remember," Mo Zhixuan stood up, lifting her chin with his hand, bending down, and a cool and austere aura rushed towards her. In that moment, Chu Jin even forgot to struggle.
