Chapter 215 Retrieve memory
Chu Jiang moved his hands, and there was another rattling sound of chains.

This is the first time I've experienced the feeling of being "fish on the chopping block" so clearly.

It was even something they requested on their own initiative.

"Sangsang, wake up, don't sleep..."

He moved his chin, nuzzling the top of the girl's soft hair, his voice unusually hoarse.

But all she got in return was a soft, coquettish murmur: "Hmm, don't move~" Her voice was tired.

Chu Jiang: ...

He closed his eyes briefly, trying to suppress the anger that had been stirred up, and then shifted his position, which would inevitably wake the person on top of him: "Sweetie, cover yourself with the blanket, you'll catch a cold..."

"Snapped--"

He received a solid slap to the face, but at least the person on top of him finally deigned to move and cover himself with the blanket.

Her body was warm and hot, but her bound hands and feet were ice-cold, and the sweet fragrance emanating from her arms made it impossible for her to move...

For the first time in his life, Chu Jiang hated himself for being so impulsive. He must have been crazy to lock himself up; otherwise…

He looked down at the little girl in his arms, who had fallen asleep from exhaustion, but could only make out her straight nose and rosy, glistening lips; the rest was obscured by her long hair.

This was shocking; he...

"Qin Sangsang, you just wait." The deliberately lowered voice carried a hint of gritted teeth.

No matter how unsatisfied he was, the person who had aroused him was fast asleep, their warm breath brushing against his chest, bringing a sense of peace and tranquility.

Chu Jiang thought that after that incident, he would be unable to sleep as usual, but perhaps because Sang Sang was beside him and he could smell her familiar fragrance, he unknowingly fell asleep as well.

His only complaint was that even though she was right in his arms, he couldn't reach out and hug her.

Because of this dissatisfaction, his complexion remained rather unpleasant until he fell asleep.

"Oh dear, you didn't keep your promise to be here in three days."

A cool, teasing female voice rang in his ears. When Chu Jiang opened his eyes, he found himself back in that familiar space.

For some reason, even though the person opposite him had a gentle yet distant demeanor, he seemed to see a familiar shadow in her.

It's like, it seems...

"Huh? What are you looking at?"

Dr. Su nodded slightly, her clear eyes conveying a polite inquiry.

Chu Jiang quickly looked away, but refused to say anything.

Although Qin Su's expression remained unchanged, her heart sank a little. She could clearly feel that the man's heart, which had finally been opened up, had been sealed away again.

He wouldn't even speak anymore.

She tapped her finger lightly on the table, her expression unchanged: "Are you still willing to try the treatment suggestion from last time?"

The man's long, dark eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he were thinking about something, or perhaps he wasn't thinking about anything at all.

Qin Su did not urge him, but waited patiently for his response.

And the result was—

He remained silent, his former unruly spirit seemingly dissipated. Though he sat there, he appeared uninterested in the world.

This is truly a very bad reaction.

The heavier Qin Su’s heart became, the gentler her smile became: “It’s okay if you don’t want to. I actually think that the most important thing for you right now is not to restrain yourself from training, but to find your lost memories.”

Chu Jiang's little finger twitched noticeably, and his gaze, fixed on a corner of the transparent tabletop, suddenly deepened.

Although he appeared outwardly unresponsive, the change in his heart rate indicated that her words had touched him.

It's good that he reacted; she was really afraid he might do something rash and kill himself. "You know, a person's memories actually always exist. If you can't remember them, it's just because the memories are internalized. As long as you use the right methods, you can help yourself find your lost memories."

Chu Jiang finally raised his head, his exquisitely shaped eyes revealing a strong sense of sarcasm and provocation: "I don't need to regain any memories."

Qin Su's smile remained unchanged: "For example, you don't even want the memory of killing your companion?"

"Shut up!"

The man suddenly stood up, towering over her with an imposing presence. His piercing, cold black eyes stared at her angrily, as if he were about to kill her at any moment.

"You also believe that you killed the person yourself, which is why you're afraid and dare not look, right?"

"I told you to shut up!"

He suddenly reached out and overturned the table in front of him.

He had never been able to touch the damaged desktop before, but this time he strangely managed to do so.

Not only that, but it also made a clear sound of breaking glass.

Chu Jiang was only surprised for a second before his body moved faster than his brain, rushing to the woman not far away and reaching out to strangle her—

"Everyone believes you killed him, and you believe it yourself. You agree with your own monster, you're a heartless madman. Your rage stems from your inner unease; you're trying to cover it up with anger..."

Shut up! Believe me or I'll kill you!

"Everyone doubts you, but there's one person who believes in you. Can you bear to disappoint her too?"

A simple sentence can be more powerful than a thousand words.

Chu Jiang's hand, which was gripping the woman's neck, was trembling uncontrollably.

It was something that should have been very easy for him, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it.

"You don't want to disappoint her, do you?"

The woman looked at him, and even though her life and death were in someone else's hands, she remained calm and composed.

Through the similar face before him, Chu Jiang seemed to see the shy yet gentle smile of a young girl:

"I will always be with Ling Xiao, and Ling Xiao will never leave me, right?"

He was such a shy and timid person, yet he took the initiative to do something so bold when everyone else was afraid of him.

He can go die.

But could he bear to leave her alone?
If he leaves too, that beast Chu Junyan will only bully her to death.

His Sangsang.

Dr. Su glanced down at her trembling hands, then looked up at the man: "She's willing to risk everything to run to you, can't you be brave for her this once?"

The man, who was originally saddened by thinking of the little girl, twitched his brows when he heard the word "brave," and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes as he looked at her.

Qin Su finally raised her hand and slowly pushed away the hand that was holding her neck: "The worst outcome is that you did kill the person. You've already accepted it, so what's there to fear?"

Chu Jiang stared at her with a cold gaze, as if she were an enemy.

"But there's still a sliver of a possibility that you're not the murderer. Then there's still room for maneuver, it all depends on whether you dare to take action?"

She slightly curved her lips, her expression as calm and composed as ever.

Seemingly infected by her composure, Chu Jiang's originally furious, sad, and desperate mood seemed to calm down a lot.

His Adam's apple bobbed, and he lowered his hand, slowly straightening up. He asked her, "What do I need to do?"

As he spoke, the image of himself regaining consciousness, holding a blood-stained longsword, surrounded by severed limbs and broken pieces, seemed to reappear before his eyes...
