1066 Perplexed and Smitten 126 (2/2)

She really did not want to go home to sleep, despite feeling a little weary.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and she had no choice but to return to her apartment on the sixth floor.

To her astonishment, she was greeted with the strong odor of alcohol the moment she stepped foot inside the apartment.

Xiao Chenyang was chugging some liquor, despite already being drunk.

\”Hey, why are you drinking so much?\” she asked.

She stepped forward and snatched the bottle of liquor away from him. She placed the bottle onto the table and said, \”Why are you drinking so much? Are you tired of living?\”

\”That won't kill me,\” he answered in a drunken stupor.

\”Go to bed. Don't you still have to travel tomorrow?\”

\”I can't get up, give me a hand.\”

\”Sleep on the couch if you can't get up.\”

She turned around and headed inside the bedroom.

She grabbed a set of pajamas and proceeded to take a shower. By the time she was done, he was already sitting on the bed.

As soon as Fang Erlan walked toward him, he hugged her waist, giving her a great shock. \”What are you doing!?!\”

\”Nan Chuang.\”

Nan Chuang?

That was the exact same name he gave at the hospital. I thought it was just a casual name that he had made up, yet he's calling it out loud again.

Did he mistake me for someone else?

Just as she was pondering over it, he again called, \”Nan Chuang.\”

\”I'm not Nan Chuang,\” said Fang Erlan, who then pushed him away with all her might, causing him to fall back onto the bed, perhaps because he was on the brink of losing his consciousness.

Fang Erlan adjusted his body into a comfortable position while she lay beside him.

Her initial weariness had now vanished without a trace.

Fang Erlan began to wonder if she resembled Nan Chuang and if that was the reason he had mistaken her for that other woman.

Will he leave once we clear the misunderstanding?

But he clearly knows my name.

He knows my name is not Nan Chuang.

Could it be…

She could not help but rack her brains for an answer. Despite knowing that we're two separate individuals who look alike, he still…

Is he out of his mind?

Xiao Chenyang had a good night's sleep while Fang Erlan suffered from insomnia for the rest of the night.

He alarmed her when he woke up in the morning.

\”Who's Nan Chuang?\” she asked.

Xiao Chenyang asked in shock, \”Why would you ask such a question?\”

\”Because you used that name when we were at the hospital and you even called that name out loud last night. Hence, I want to know who that is.\”

\”You really want to know?\”

\”Yes.\”

\”But it's not the right time to tell you yet,\” Xiao Chenyang refused. In fact, he simply did not want her to feel burdened by what happened in their past lives and he wanted her to fall in love with him once more while she still had no memory of the previous lifetime. He planned to only tell her about their previous lifetime after she falls in love with him again.

Fang Erlan asked, \”She must be the woman whom you love the most, right? Do I resemble her greatly? Has she passed away? Is that why you're treating me like I'm her? Did I guess correctly?\”
