Tang Xi widened her eyes, "She really likes you, and used to be the vice president of your company, oh, and you were childhood sweethearts, your memory, it’s lost so completely."
Very good, she was relieved.
Fu Tingzhou listened to her firm tone, and clenched his fist slightly.
Because, he had met this Ji Qingtan twice in the company, and later she was transferred to the Jiangnan Branch, leaving North City. Up to now, she has never come back, and when they met, Ji Qingtan didn’t show any affection for him.
Childhood sweethearts with her?
Could the woman in his memories be her?
"Since we were childhood sweethearts, since she likes me, why didn’t we end up together." Could it be that he didn’t like her?
Fu Tingzhou’s mind was in utter chaos at the moment.
Tang Xi, "I’m not sure about that, I only know that she chose Fu Yunye, and after Fu Yunye’s car accident, she stayed by his side. Whether or not she truly likes someone, it doesn’t matter. Do you have anything else you want to ask?"
"Do you know who I liked?"
Tang Xi was startled for a moment, "I’m only your ex-wife, not your personal assistant..."
Her chest felt a little sour; the one he liked was Su Mengshu, right?
The only woman he remembered deep down had to be her as well.
All memories lost, he had forgotten everything, yet that woman was still on his mind.
Fu Tingzhou looked at her, "Did you ever like me before?"
The expression on Tang Xi’s face stiffened for a moment, he noticed.
The woman pursed her lips, her breathing somewhat hurried, "Is this question important?"
"I think it’s very important." He didn’t find Tang Xi repulsive, nor did he mind spending his leisure time talking and chatting with her; he would rather do that than waste time on other things.
Tang Xi made no attempt to hide, "I liked you before."
Her fingers clenched tightly and then let go, a lump of cotton seemed to gather in her chest, pressing so hard that her heart was in pain.
"However, my liking for you is insignificant, with no trace of me in your memories, it won’t affect your life."
Her smile was somewhat bitter.
Fu Tingzhou stared at the smile on her face, the man lifted his hand and rubbed between his eyebrows, feeling a headache. This familiar headache came whenever he tried to think about the woman in the depths of his memory. It was as if something was struggling to break free from a cage but was brutally suppressed.
Tang Xi watched the man’s somewhat pale complexion, and as a doctor, she instinctively asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
"It’s nothing." He gritted his teeth.
Gu Zhiyi’s call came through, saying she was just leaving the cinema with the kids.
Tang Xi stood up, "Then I’ll be leaving first."
"Can I ask you one last question?" Fu Tingzhou called out to her, "Whose child is your daughter?"
He had checked the DNA, it wasn’t his.
"We’re divorced, before you lost your memory, you didn’t like me, we had no affection. You couldn’t wait to divorce me, and now, four years later, I’m doing well here. You’ve lost your memory, and you come asking me whose child this is, what’s the point? Whose child she is, it doesn’t matter; she has nothing to do with you."
Fu Tingzhou stood up, swaying a bit, holding back the pain in his head, he grabbed Tang Xi’s hand, "So, you know who I like? You know everything about my past, but you don’t want to tell the truth, do you?"
His voice was hoarse, urgent, "I hope you can tell me, who that woman is."
He dreamt about her countless times.
"Why should I tell you? While we were still married, you liked another woman. Isn’t that considered, cheating during marriage? Why should I kindly tell you who you like? Who that woman is, aren’t you powerful and influential? You can find out on your own. I no longer have any relationship with you; an ex-husband and an ex-wife, plainly speaking, we are strangers."
Did he like Su Mengshu that much?
But she didn’t like it; she loathed Su Mengshu.
That name had brought her endless pain, nightmares!
She withdrew her hand, "Fu Tingzhou, you’ve even forgotten the person you like, what’s there to talk about liking? As powerful as you are, feared and respected by so many, I’m just an ordinary person who has lived peacefully here for five years. I don’t want my peaceful life to be disrupted now. You have so many women around you, the one you despised the most used to be me, and now you want the answers you desire from me?"
"You once told me, Tang Xi, to disappear from North City!! I disappeared! I came to the island, and I never provoked you!! It’s you who keeps bothering me!!"
