C42 (1/2)

”Grandma, Danshen, I'm here!”

”Lingyue, where did you go? We've been looking for you for a long time, why did you disappear when we woke up? ”

”I'm fine, I was just casually walking around. Let's go home now!” Facing Lin Dan and my grandma's concerned eyes, I casually told a small lie. Just now, those two judges told me that my grandma's and Lin Dan's memories had been erased.

This is good too.

After returning home, I briefly washed my face and rinsed my mouth before heading up. I slept on the bed for so long that I was tired and scared. Not long after, he fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how much time had passed before I woke up. When I opened my eyes, I saw Qin Yize.

I tried to push him away, to stretch out my arm, and realized that I couldn't do it.

Thinking about how my grandma and Lin Dan lived next door, I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

….

Although this is not the first time we have done this with Qin Yize, this is the first time we are lying down like normal couples.

”Q-Qin Yize …”

I tried calling his name. He raised his eyelids and gave a slight 'hmm'. It was such a weird thing to do. Even though it was night, I could look at things as if they were day. This kind of feeling is still very good sometimes. I am truly grateful to my mother.

”Are you still angry?”

He ignored me.

I continued, ”What's in my stomach?”

”You don't want me to come back because of the things in the tomb at the back of the mountain? Or because of what's in my stomach? ”

”Will everyone in the village die? Why? Can you save them? ”

I asked all the questions in my mind in one breath, but I didn't get a single answer. Just as I was feeling discouraged, a magnetic voice sounded in my ear.

”My son!”

”Wh …” ”What?”

I was a little taken aback. ”What did you say?” Is the one in my womb your son? ”

Half a second later, I suddenly sat up in bed, staring at my stomach, exclaiming.

”En!”

It was another word of reply, and just as I was still in a daze, Qin Yize continued to speak. It's best if you don't care about the matters of the village! I can't do anything about it either. At most, I can only protect you! ”

”Can't, or won't?” From Qin Yize's words, I seem to see a trace of hope.
