Mu Nianqing was not willing to give up the rare opportunity and wanted to ask for more details. She reckoned that she could intelligently assume the identity after finding out about the details!
After all, the Xi family was not an ordinary affluent family, but one of the four major families!
However, Xi Mubai shook his head and said with a tinge of disappointment in his mellow voice, “Nothing much, I may have gotten the wrong person. You are not her.”
Dreams are just dreams, how could it be true? Mu Nianqing is clearly not the right person! I must be out of my mind. What’s wrong with me? How could I believe a dream!?!
That’s right. If Mu Nianqing is not Luo Luo, how could she have been so clear about the details of the incident in Pine Mountain?
However, reality was a complete opposite because she was entirely clueless. It was simply unfathomable.
“Unfortunately, I can’t help you, Young Master Xi.” Mu Nianqing said mellowly while thinking about something. All of a sudden, an idea popped up in her mind.
At the next moment, she added, “Seriously speaking, I happened to have a car accident and accidentally hit my head, so my memory is a little muddled up! I doubt it’d be so coincidental. I don’t think I’m the one you’re looking for, Young Master Xi… ” She wasn’t lying about the accident because it really did happen.
The rest were obviously untrue.
She may not remember some details of the events that took place two years ago but she was 100% sure about the matter that Xi Mubai asked about.
She had never gone to Pine Mountain before…
“You lost your memory in a car accident?”
Xi Mubai listened and asked with a frown.
Mu Nianqing didn’t directly admit to it, lest she ruin her own chances. Instead, she answered ambiguously, “I didn’t lose my memory but I’m a little confused. So, there may be some things that I can’t remember.”
She smiled elegantly and said, “If you don’t mind, I want to take the liberty to ask you this. Young Master Xi, did the person whom you’re looking for… offend you in any way?”
Offend? Obviously not!
Xi Mubai’s reactions showed that he obviously cared about that person. If she guessed correctly, he should owe her a huge favor!
As expected, he smiled bitterly and asked, “Offended me? How could it be? She was really obedient, sensible and puerile.”
That year, he decided to go to Pine Mountain to get a breather because he was not in a good mood.
In the late autumn, the maple leaves on the Pine Mountain were flying all over the sky, and stained with crimson. He felt relaxed and happy, like he was in a fairyland.
However, in the afternoon, there was a sudden heavy rain. Instead of rushing down the mountain, he first found a place to seek shelter… To his surprise, the rain got heavier and caused a mudslide in the middle of the night.
His leg was severely injured, and he was trapped alone on the mountain, almost isolated and helpless. He was even on the verge of death.
While he was in despair, a girl who seemed like an angel that descended from the sky, came to his side.
She was clearly so thin and petite but she was the one who pulled him out of danger and brought him to a safer place… He was running a high fever, and she hugged him to warm him up. They snuggled up to each other and became extremely close.
Back then, he was physically weak and was trying his best to stay awake. While listening to her words of encouragement, he pressed on and waited for help.
However, whenever he asked who she was, she would refuse to answer and simply write the “Luo Luo” on his palm.
Later on, he couldn’t take it any longer and fell asleep while Luo Luo continuously called his name and tried to wake him up. She even sang the nursery rhyme gently into his ear. “The dark sky droops… The withered roses on the ground… The cold wind blows… As long as you’re here with me… ”
At the end of the rhyme, she suddenly asked gently, “Xi Mubai, will you remember me?” At that time, he smiled gently but did not answer her.
However, deep down, he thought seriously that he would never forget “Luo Luo” for the rest of his life… He had to repay her kindness for saving him. He would give Luo Luo whatever she wanted.
Even if she wanted him, he would probably be willing… to give himself to her!
However, he could tell from Luo Luo’s puerile voice that she was clearly still young… He reckoned that he needed to wait for some time for her to grow up.
