Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 713 An Enigma

Tang Hebe first noticed something was amiss from the moment when she saw Cui Xukun appear all of a sudden. She was truly taken aback to see him but Shui Xian didn't look surprised. Also, the moment that Shui Xian called her 'Tang Hebe' instead of 'Bebe', made her feel unsettled.

It was this uneasy feeling that made her keenly observe everything around her. And doing so, she managed to find the date that left her startled. She had to check the tv to figure out if the date was wrong but something told her, the date was right. Eventually, she was proven right.

To be very honest, when she first realized that she lost her memories, she was not only feeling lost. She felt very scared as well.

She didn't even understand how she managed to actually come to terms with that. She'd have cried and made a scene but she couldn't do so today. It was like her brain actually accepted everything pretty easily. For a moment, even she was shocked at how relaxed she was even in this situation.

"With such a handsome face, you should be a star," she commented out of nowhere.

Hyson raised his brow and gave her a big smile, "What a coincidence! I am a star."

Tang Hebe understood his words and smiled along with him. "Ah, I would have felt pity if you weren't."

"Are you tired?" he asked her. "You need a lot of rest."

Tang Hebe shook her head gently but felt her headache so she stopped and said, "I just woke up actually. After realizing how the world just fast-forwarded before I knew it, I had to take a nap to calm myself down."

"You shouldn't put so much pressure on your head," he told her. "It's not good for you right now."

"Actually, I'm not putting any pressure on my head. I feel very light and I have an inkling that if I remembered everything, things will get complicated. So, I want to give myself the pleasure of resting today. I'll try to think about everything tomorrow."

Hyson chuckled at her words, "That's a very interesting thought."

Tang Hebe grinned at him, "So, how does it feel to meet an amnesiac person?"

Hyson shrugged, "You aren't the type I was most curious about. But I still learned something."

"I'm not the type you're curious about?" she repeated. "And what exactly did you learn?"

Hyson patiently told her, "When people lose their memories and forget even their own names, aren't they like a newborn baby with a clean slate?"

Tang Hebe agreed with those words.

"But babies don't know how to talk," he said. "Then how come amnesiac people can talk? They know how to read and write. But they don't have any memories? I was curious about all that."

Tang Hebe looked at him strangely before she chuckled softly, "That's a very interesting question. Suddenly, I'm also curious."

Hyson was glad that she didn't think he had a nonsense question, unlike his own best friend. Because Raelle's reply was, 'If you have so many brain cells to waste thinking about all this, why don't you use those brain cells to do something productive?' But how was he supposed to explain that he was genuinely very curious!

However, one thing that Raelle once told him was right, 'You shouldn't try to understand a human brain. It's the most complicated part of a person's body. You can't solve the mystery. Just like you're an enigma to some people, a human brain is to scientists as well.'

And yes, he was happy to know that he was an enigma to most people.

"As for what I learned from meeting you," started Hyson. "It's the fact that just because you lost your memory, it doesn't mean your brain has gone offline. You're still very sharp and smart. And that's very good to know." He took a pause and added, "Also, even if you've lost memories, your subconscious reactions are very... new you."

"New me?" she repeated. "You mean I've changed in all these years?"

"The world is changing every minute, every person is also changing every minute," he told her. "So, it isn't a surprise that you've changed. It's called growth. If you aren't growing, you are being very unfair to yourself."

"By the way, do you know my hus..." She stopped from completing her words and changed the way, "I mean, do you know Shui Xian?" She didn't know why but subconsciously, she couldn't bring herself to say husband once again.

Hyson smiled knowingly when he noticed her pause. See? As he said, her subconsciousness was very active right now. Even if she was trying to hide from some memories. She couldn't seem to lie to her subconscious self

"I do," he answered. "Xian Ge is also my senior. How can I not know him? In fact, we are pretty close."

"You're close to him but it's our first time meeting," mumbled Tang Hebe in a soft voice that barely reached his ears. "Does that mean I am no longer a part of his life?"

Hyson was taken aback by how keen her senses were right now. What the hell! How did she manage to come to that conclusion with just one sentence from him? He wasn't even trying to give anything away. How did she notice? Where did he slip up exactly?

She solved the mystery for him, "There had never been secrets between us. If you're close to him but I don't know you at all, it only means we have drifted apart in these years. It explains why he looked so unnatural around me."

She seemed to have figured out everything and it left him baffled.

He hurriedly said, "I should leave now. You take some rest. Don't think so much. Everything will clear up with time. I'll come to see you tomorrow." Smiling at her and waving his hand at her, he ran out.

He didn't want to stay and give anything else away. This woman was keener than he thought she was!
