After I Lost My Memory, My Wife Started To Chase Me - Chapter 35.2
Chapter 35.2: In the Same Space
“You can buy it yourself! If you like it, buy it yourself!” Weishu gave a subtle eyeroll as she blinked. She knew it! This person was after it. She’d only started with a phrase, and she was already trying to take Beige’s ring! She would not allow it!
Zhou Yu’s mouth twitched. She hadn’t even heard what Weishu mumbled. She was just answering the previous question! “You’ve misunderstood,” Zhou Yu could only continue to smile. “I was saying, since you lost your ring, how about I help you order another one?”
Zhou Yu patiently explained, her face almost frozen from smiling. “In the past, whenever CEO Bei lost something, she would have me replace it. Don’t worry, I’m very good at re-purchasing identical items. I can even find limited editions.”
Weishu: …
Weishu closed her mouth, her face expressionless.
Beige held her forehead and took a few seconds to calm herself down. She looked up at Zhou Yu. “Your work here is done. You can go home.”
Zhou Yu’s soul as a working person instantly awakened. She nodded and thanked her, turning to leave. As a worker, wasting a second on the job was a disrespect to her paycheck.
After Zhou Yu left, Beige held Weishu’s chin, making her turn her head. She looked at her with amusement. “What are you so jealous about?”
Weishu’s eyes were cast downward, her lips tightly sealed. The muscles in her neck were a little stiff. When Beige moved her, she stubbornly tilted her head away, like a little turtle with its neck stretched out, refusing to speak.
Beige saw her pouting, and couldn’t help but lean down and kiss her red lips. Smack. Their lips separated with a sound.
Weishu’s earlobes slowly turned pink. She was a little embarrassed. Unable to keep up the awkward act, Weishu quickly lowered her head, buried her face in Beige’s embrace, and hugged her waist without saying anything.
Beige let her hug her, a smile spreading across her entire face. She laughed out loud again. The laughter made her chest vibrate, and Weishu, pressed against her, felt it deeply. Beige stroked her still-damp hair and said patiently and gently, “Are you jealous?”
The person in her arms rubbed against her softly.
Beige laughed again. “She’s just my assistant. You can just call her Assistant Zhou from now on.” The person in her arms didn’t move. Beige thought for a moment and explained, “I haven’t told anyone about you because I was afraid it would cause you trouble. I only put your information in the company’s system, and the security guards know you, but Zhou Yu doesn’t. Your medicine and ginger tea were prepared by Zhou Yu without me even asking. She really doesn’t have any other thoughts about me. It’s even more impossible for me to have any feelings for her.”
Hugging and comforting her worked wonders. Weishu’s stubbornness vanished. She couldn’t help but tighten her arms and rub against Beige’s chest a few more times.
“Ouch.” Beige suddenly looked up, her expression a little pained.
“Honey,” Beige patted her on the waist and bottom. “Don’t rub anymore.”
Weishu lifted her messy hair from Beige’s arms, her fair little face flushed with a bottled-up heat. Beige leaned down and kissed her forehead. “Hurry up and eat.”
Weishu said “okay” and obediently got up. She straightened her creased, shifted chest pads and sat on the coffee table to open the food boxes. Beige let out a long sigh of relief. Thank goodness Weishu was obedient. If she had rubbed any more, Beige wouldn’t have been able to hold back.
“I need to explain,” Weishu said, chewing on the not-so-good food with a frown. “I wasn’t just being jealous. I just really hate third parties.”
Beige listened patiently. Weishu was afraid that Beige would think she was petty. “Maybe it’s my own germaphobia, but I only like things that belong entirely to me. I won’t share with anyone. If the person I love can’t only love me, then I don’t want her.”
Beige was curious. “You seem to understand yourself quite well. Didn’t you lose your memory?”
Weishu said seriously, “Losing my memory is one thing, but I didn’t lose my core values. I won’t share my lover, and likewise, I will only love you.”
This was a declaration of love. Beige was stunned for a moment and didn’t say anything.
“I like childhood sweethearts. I like being innocent together. I like it when it’s just that one person from beginning to end,” Weishu mumbled softly. “So when I found out you were the person I loved and that we had known each other since we were kids, I was incredibly happy. That’s exactly why I’m so wary of the men and women who appear around you. I know most of the big bosses in your business circles don’t have many morals. They have no principles when it comes to relationships. They’re used to having young women accompany them at business events. You don’t have to deny it. I know all about it.”
Beige opened her mouth. Seeing that the topic was going in the wrong direction, she wanted to pull it back. “I really don’t.”
“I believe you,” Weishu interrupted her. “But I can’t help but worry. The environment around you is like this. It’s rare for someone to come out of the mud unstained. What’s more, you’re so excellent. You can have any kind of girl you want. You probably just need to wave, and a bunch of them will show up.”
It was only then that Beige realized Weishu didn’t have much of a sense of security. At the same time, she was filled with an unspeakable excitement and satisfaction because of Weishu’s possessive declaration.
Beige almost swore to the heavens. “Xiaoshu, besides you, it’s impossible for me to have another woman in this life.”
Weishu looked at her blankly, but there was no trust in her eyes. “I don’t believe you. Are you sure you’re in love with me and not just habitually taking care of me like a sister?”
Beige was stunned for a moment. “You’re my sister and my lover. How could I get those things mixed up?”
Weishu shook her head, her tone cold. “But to me, since I woke up, all your meticulous care has been at a polite, ‘respect-as-a-guest’ level. You’re not even willing to go to bed with me. To me, you’re still holding back. I’ve shown my feelings openly in front of you, but you’ve rejected me.”
Beige had a hard time explaining herself. She didn’t know what was wrong with Weishu today. Her mouth was so sharp, and what she said was the complete opposite of the truth, but Beige had no way to defend herself. She really hadn’t touched Weishu. Even before Weishu lost her memory, the two of them rarely had a partner life. It wasn’t that Beige didn’t want to; it was that Weishu was always a little uninterested. A partner’s life between them was only possible if Weishu took the initiative. Beige had never rejected Weishu, but Weishu had always rejected Beige. So, after Weishu lost her memory, Beige had thought it over carefully and discreetly rejected her. In Beige’s mind, the current Weishu wasn’t in her right mind. If she recovered her memory, she would definitely be angry at Beige for her overstepping behavior. Later, Weishu kept pushing, and Beige gradually let go, which led to their later intimate gestures. But they were still a long way from getting into bed.
Beige wasn’t sure. “Xiaoshu, do you know what you’re saying? I really feel wronged. If you said you had no sense of security, I would find a way to give it to you. I would make our relationship public, introduce you to my business partners, and even give you a grand wedding—which is what you agreed to before. But you can’t say I don’t love you.”
Weishu lowered her head. She remembered Yu Qing’s advice to express her needs to force Beige to agree, otherwise, Beige would never take that step. So Weishu was still stubborn. “I don’t feel it.”
She put down her chopsticks and turned to go back into the room. “Even if I stood in front of you naked, you wouldn’t be interested. It makes me feel so defeated. But it won’t happen again. I’ll stay away from you.” With that, she closed the door to the lounge.
Beige was left standing outside the door, losing all ability to think for a moment. The pulse in her temple throbbed, transmitting a sound of bl00d rushing. She could hear the sound of the tight string in her heart slowly snapping. What do you mean, you could stand naked in front of me and I wouldn’t react? What do you mean, you’ll stay away from me?
Beige looked at the food Weishu had barely touched. She suddenly got up and knocked on the door. The lounge was locked and couldn’t be opened. Beige calmly turned around, took out a spare key, and opened the door. Weishu was lying on the bed, buried in the covers. When she heard the door open, her body trembled, and she shrank back.
Beige closed the door, hung the spare key on the doorknob, and then with a click, locked it from the inside. She walked slowly, passed Weishu, and entered the bathroom. A moment later, the sound of water began. Beige slowly and meticulously washed her hands. After washing them three times, she shook off the remaining water and used her elbow to turn off the faucet.
When Weishu heard her washing her hands, she hugged the pillow and shrank to the end of the bed.
Beige walked over, looking down at her. Her unrestrained eyes were filled with a thick passion. That look made Weishu a little frightened. “Come here.”
Beige’s clothes were perfectly intact, but Weishu was under her control, kissed until she was short of breath, her mind bursting with fireworks. There was a meticulous, slow rustling sound in her ears. Only then did Weishu belatedly realize that she had probably succeeded. It was just that things were developing a little beyond her control.
…
That night, Beige carried Weishu home.
Yu Qing and Weishu arrived home one after the other. Yu Qing hummed and danced. She gave Weishu a big bear hug as soon as she entered. She seemed to be in a great mood. Weishu said in a weak voice, “Was the date a success?”
“Oh, what date? It was just dinner, haha.” Yu Qing laughed, trembling. She was wearing a tight-fitting American-style spicy girl outfit today. She had a black ribbon around her neck and a hip-hugging mermaid skirt. It showed off her curvy figure. Beige, whose thoughts were more traditional, found it a little shocking. She threw a blanket at her and yawned. “Put something on. The indoor temperature is twenty-five degrees Celsius.”
Weishu looked at her a few times, feeling a little envious. “Kong Qin likes your type.”
Yu Qing noticed her gaze. Her smile froze. She warily looked at Weishu from head to toe. “Your measurements are also quite impressive.” This time, Yu Qing not only saw Kong Qin but also Kong Qin’s blind date, Miss Sun. No wonder Weishu said that Kong Qin didn’t like the “white, thin, and young” type. Miss Sun was like Lin Daiyu from a book, frail and delicate. She looked like a gust of wind could blow her over. Yu Qing didn’t even have to puff out her chest. Kong Qin’s gaze didn’t even fall on Miss Sun. But Weishu, though she looked thin, was quite curvy. These things were genetic. Weishu and Yu Qing’s mothers were both voluptuous beauties when they were young. This could also be inherited.
Weishu looked at her with a complicated expression. This person must have a brain that only thinks about love. “Get out.”
“Okay, I’m getting out,” Yu Qing said, getting up gracefully and twirling back into the room. She twirled back out and handed the mini mouse to Weishu. “This is a small token of my gratitude. I’m entrusting this child to you from now on. I’m leaving now!”
Weishu watched her leave with a look as if she were watching a fool.
Beige leaned against the wall, watching their interaction. She looked very tired and was almost falling asleep against the wall. The sound of the door closing came. After confirming that Yu Qing had really closed the door and wouldn’t come out, Beige pulled herself together and walked over to stroke Weishu’s head. “Are you tired? I’ve run the bath for you. Go take a soak.”
Weishu, taking advantage of the situation, wanted to take a bath with Beige.
Beige was stunned for a few seconds. She rubbed her eyes and walked over to accompany her. “Okay, let’s go together.”
She didn’t get into the bathtub. She stayed outside and rubbed Weishu’s back for her. Weishu tilted her head and watched her. The more she looked, the more she liked what she saw. After a while, Weishu sat up straight and suddenly said, “Honey, you have dark circles.”
It wasn’t obvious during the day, but by night, Beige was visibly tired. Weishu felt a little heartache. “Are you working too hard?”
Beige shook her head and continued to massage her. “No, I just haven’t slept well. I’ll be fine after I get some sleep tonight.” She had just gotten a few hours of sleep during the day, which allowed her to temporarily recover her energy, but that was all thanks to Shen Lan’s hypnosis. Whether she would be able to fall asleep tonight was still a question.
Weishu couldn’t bear for Beige to be exhausted. She pushed her out. “I can do the rest myself. You go to sleep!”
Beige’s reaction was a little slow. It took her a moment to walk out the door. She rubbed her forehead. The lack of sleep made her dizzy. She remembered a sleep deprivation study that proved a lack of sleep could really be fatal. She tried to lie in bed and force herself to sleep, but it was no use. As soon as she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with all sorts of chaotic thoughts, like a huge, heavy hand pressing down on her chest, suffocating her.
Beige got up and took a small paper packet from the inside pocket of her jacket. Inside was the medicine Shen Lan had given her. She had been told to try to fall asleep on her own and only use it as a last resort, otherwise, she would become dependent, and the dosage would only increase over time. Weishu was very clingy. She would definitely sleep with her tonight. She had already noticed that Beige was tired, and if she didn’t look well tomorrow, it would worry her. She couldn’t even take care of her own problems without making her sick lover worry.
Beige hesitated for a few seconds. She broke a half a tablet and took it. Sleepiness slowly crept in. Just before she passed out, Beige vaguely thought that the next time she accompanied Weishu for a checkup, she should see Shen Lan again. The agency’s investigation into what happened to the Wei family back then had made progress. The results of the overall chain of events would be out soon. At this time, she had to hold on. Especially since Weishu was a patient, she absolutely could not fall.
