Chapter 308 Ties
At this moment, Xie Guixue was dressed in a plain-colored robe of luxurious quality. Her long, snow-white hair fell to her sides, making her appear like a beautiful orchid or a jade tree, a snow lotus, with a graceful and charming appearance.
One glance was enough to capture her heart.
At that moment, Su Muyao was momentarily dazed, as if time had reversed and she had returned to the time when they were at the villa.
They were still happily together then, strolling through fields of lavender.
But she knew everything was different now; there were many things between them, and a lot of time.
It felt as if something had struck her heart, and a wave of bitterness instantly washed over her.
Drawn by the music, she found herself walking forward without realizing it.
It was just a dream, and she could indulge herself and follow her deepest and truest thoughts to get closer to him and walk towards him.
As the moonlight fell and the wind blew gently, the entire lavender field swayed slowly.
Just as Su Muyao walked up to Xie Guixue, the zither music stopped. Xie Guixue slowly stood up, looked down at Su Muyao, and asked, "Are you my former wife, Miss?"
Upon hearing these words, Su Muyao felt as if a thunderclap had struck her head, and her heart had been hit by a hammer, causing a sharp pain.
"You...what did you call me?"
"you do not know me?"
Su Muyao touched her face. She hadn't disguised herself or put on any makeup. Xie Guixue didn't recognize her?
This realization filled Su Muyao with immense panic.
Does he really not remember?
He forgot her.
Nothing is more cruel than this.
Although she had suspected it before, it wasn't until this moment that she realized how cruel it was to be forgotten.
It felt as if a dull knife was gently scraping the softest part of her heart.
Nalan Guixue apologized softly, "I'm sorry, I don't remember you, young lady, and I don't recognize you."
"Since the young lady can enter my dreams, she must be my wife."
"Today, on the carriage, the moment I saw the girl from afar, I felt a sense of attachment."
He looked at Su Muyao with a cold and indifferent gaze, as if she were just a stranger to him who was insignificant. There was no emotion in his eyes when he looked at her.
Nalan Guixue only remembered that in the carriage, his heartstrings trembled uncontrollably.
"I never expected that this connection would lead us into a dream. Now that we're in a dream, I want to ask some questions."
The reason she didn't stop the carriage to look for her that day was because she knew that if the elders of the Nalan family knew about certain things, it would only bring her trouble.
Or if people knew that she was his former wife, they might even try to kill her.
Upon hearing these words, Su Muyao finally understood that it was because of a tethering force.
She had never had such a dream before, so real, she wondered if it was because of the unique power of the ice and snow spirit beast.
Su Muyao's fingers, which were placed at her side, trembled slightly. She gripped her fingers tightly, trying to suppress her emotions.
The mist in her eyes instantly dissipated.
Even if she were to be forgotten, she didn't want to lose her composure and integrity from the very beginning.
"What do you want to ask?"
Nalan Guixue said, "The elders of the Moon Clan repaired my soul. After I woke up, I felt as if a piece was missing in my heart, empty and I couldn't fill it."
“I feel like I’ve forgotten some very important people and things. I asked the servants around me, but no one knew, and no one told me what had happened before.”
He just had a terrible headache at the time, and subconsciously he felt that he should remember, so that he wouldn't panic so much. "I really wanted to remember, but the more I thought about it, the more my head hurt. After I fainted once, my mother made me drink a bowl of medicine, saying that my headache would go away after drinking it."
"It really doesn't hurt anymore, but I've lost track of many things and can't remember them anymore."
"Later, I often felt palpitations and discovered that I had been bound by a contract. Through some details, I deduced that I had once had a wife, but for some reason, the partner mark on my body disappeared."
“My mother said that I was physically weak before, and my wife used some tricks to get close to me and coax me into a marriage contract. However, after the contract was formed, my wife did not like me, so she wrote a letter of divorce.”
“My mother said that my wife has other lovers and doesn’t want me to bother her.”
Upon hearing this, the system cursed, "This is utter slander! This Xie family head is going too far! She was the one who forced you to write the divorce papers, so how come it's all your fault now? Didn't she tell Xie Guixue the truth? Didn't she tell you what she said to you?"
"Ugh, I'm so angry! How could they treat you like this, host? You're the one who cured Xie Guixue's weak body."
"What do you mean you don't like it? That's utter slander."
"His amnesia must have been caused by Xie family head."
The system roared in anger, but it stopped abruptly as soon as it finished speaking, seemingly automatically blocked by the power of the dream.
Nalan Guixue seemed to sense something was amiss. He paused for a moment, but not feeling anything, he continued, "At that time, I didn't know who my wife was, and I had no way of asking. Later, my father brought me to the Nalan family."
“Recently, the elders in the clan have been arranging marriages for me and forcing me to agree, which I subconsciously resist.”
"Young lady, I don't want to believe just one side of the story. Can you tell me what really happened?"
Su Muyao now understands that he is Nalan Guixue.
After listening to what he said, she pieced together some of the events. The emotions she had been suppressing surged within her, and finally, her eyes welled up with tears, which slid down her cheek.
Nalan Guixue looked down at the tear stains at the corners of her eyes, his usually cold and aloof expression faltering for a moment. He instinctively reached out and gently wiped away her tears.
When Nalan Guixue realized what she had done, her pupils contracted.
The moment Nalan Guixue touched her cheek, Su Muyao's heart started pounding uncontrollably.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
She thought that since the Xie family head loved Xie Guixue so much, he wouldn't let Xie Guixue be sad. She thought that they could see each other again after he woke up. If he could withstand the pressure from his mother and choose her over his mother, she would also walk firmly with him without hesitation, and even be willing to gain his mother's approval for him.
But there are no "what ifs." She never imagined that the Xie family head would be so ruthless.
She was so heartless that she wanted him to forget her and forget her love.
Yes, that way, the mother and child will not become estranged.
"Please don't say that, young lady. It makes me very sad."
Uncontrollable sadness.
“We were once bound by a vow, it was my fault. I wrote you a divorce agreement, so it’s understandable that you blame and hate me. I accept it all.”
At this moment, Su Muyao truly realized that she had made a mistake back then.
Nalan Guixue sighed softly, like a sound from an empty valley, "I think perhaps I am not good enough. You should have divorced me, but you wrote a letter of divorce, which is a way of giving me dignity."
Su Muyao shook her head, wanting to say that wasn't the case, but she didn't know how to explain it from the beginning.
"I did make a mistake back then. If I said that I had no choice but to give you the letter of divorce, would you believe me?"
She is a stranger to him now. Will he subconsciously believe his mother?
If he wants to know everything, she will tell him; he has the right to know.
She was just unsure of his attitude towards his mother, the Xie family head, and whether he believed her or his mother.
But he doesn't remember anything, so how can she make a judgment? She should be honest with him.
