Zara Ye repeatedly asked the doctor if her dear wife was okay.

doctor:...

After taking the film, your wife started asking what algorithm our fully automatic brain CT diagnostic system uses.

Apart from the inexplicable loss of ten years of memory, there was no other problem with her mind.

The doctor cleared his throat: "Since your wife has no external injuries, it is initially speculated that it was caused by overexertion. This amnesia symptom is only temporary. Ideally, it can heal on its own within a year."

Zara Ye breathed a sigh of relief: "Is there anything I can do?"

Doctor: "You can rest more, go out for a trip, and go sightseeing to relieve stress. It will be good for both of your bodies."

Zara Ye & Skye Cheng: "Okay, thank you."

After walking out of the hospital, Zara Ye released the doubts that had been buried in her heart: "Baby, why do you feel like you don't care about your body at all?"

"Because it's not a big deal, and the doctor also said that this kind of amnesia can be cured on its own."

"But you don't remember me now, and you don't remember the babies either."

Skye Cheng was silent for a moment. To her, it was just a few strangers suddenly around her.

But for Zara Ye and her two children, it was the people closest to them who had forgotten them.

Skye Cheng tried to empathize again, but to no avail, she casually raised a topic: "Can you tell me why we fell in love?"

Zara Ye's mood instantly improved: "It was love at first sight!"

Skye Cheng: I don’t believe it.

Zara Ye continued: "The first time we officially met, you agreed to marry me. Isn't this love at first sight? What is this?"

Skye Cheng thought for a moment: "Maybe this is called a flash marriage?"

Zara Ye nodded: "It's like lightning."

Skye Cheng asked again: "My memory is still about ten years ago, when same-S3x marriage was not legal yet. When was this law passed in China?"

"We just passed the marriage the year we got married. How many years do you think we have been married?"

"Ye Cheng'an looks like he is in his early six years. We may have been married for more than seven years?"

"It's been eight years since we had a baby. Our wedding anniversary is in October, not long ago."

"Oh." Skye Cheng responded.

In other words, she got married at the age of twenty-five. Doctors from their research group usually graduate within six years. She may have received the certificate from Zara Ye just after graduation.

It was most likely forced by Ms. Cheng, Skye Cheng guessed.

Before same-S3x marriage was legal, that is, during the twenty-three years that Skye Cheng still had memories, her mother never forced her to get married. Because Skye Cheng had a "Sc*mbag father who cheated on his wife during her pregnancy", Ms. Cheng never believed in men again. And I heard that Ms. Cheng was not as controlling as she is now before she got married. After experiencing the deception of a Sc*mbag, Ms. Cheng would go crazy whenever something was beyond her control.

In fact, Skye Cheng also understood Ms. Cheng quite well.

So those who can tolerate it generally endure it.

Skye Cheng said, "How about our relationship?"

Zara Ye nodded: "Of course."

Skye Cheng paused and asked again: "Do you like me?"

Zara Ye thought this question was strange: "Yes, I already said it was love at first sight, and yet you ask this question..."

Skye Cheng smiled: "Then do I like you?"

Zara Ye was stunned this time and stumbled: "We... fell in love at first sight. You must... like it..."

"Then today is my 'first time seeing you'. Why didn't I fall in love at first sight?" The corners of Skye Cheng's lips raised slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"Skye Cheng, what do you...mean?" Zara Ye couldn't believe her ears. Skye Cheng...how could you say such a thing?

"I'm just talking about things. 'I am now' cannot represent 'me who met you eight years ago'. You are too nervous." Skye Cheng flipped the previous sentence lightly.

Zara Ye stopped and tried to find some trace of familiarity in Skye Cheng's deep black eyes. She was puzzled: "Why do I feel...I don't seem to recognize you anymore..."

"Isn't this a coincidence? I don't recognize you anymore." Skye Cheng spoke, but his thoughts were spinning rapidly, "Can we talk about the children?"

"I..." Zara Ye has never seen Skye Cheng like this before, including the chance encounter in Europe, the glimpse at the graduation ceremony, and even the dinner where the relationship was confirmed. Skye Cheng has never been as calm as he is now. It makes people feel cold.

"Who gave birth to Ye Cheng'an? Me or you?"

Zara Ye began to have difficulty breathing. She could not accept that her wife, who had always spoken softly to her, suddenly communicated with her in this tone.

She begged, "Can you please stop calling Orange by his full name? You seem to be talking about an insignificant person, but this person is our first child."

"Well, I should have given birth to the orange." Skye Cheng analyzed, "You were only 21 years old at the time. You had been attending concerts all over the world, and your work was very intense."

Zara Ye endured it without interrupting.

"When Nian Nian was born, you had terminated your contract with GS Company in the United States, and your work focus basically shifted to China. During that time, you never participated in large-scale events."

"Skye Cheng! That's enough." Zara Ye said angrily, "Do you think I will be happy to hear your long-winded reasoning? I see you talking about me and our little family as if you are not involved. I just feel like a joke."

"Sorry." Skye Cheng sighed.

She thought it would be much easier for adults to communicate. Shouldn't the key to the problem now be that she urgently needs to understand the basic situation between them? If she doesn’t communicate with her current wife, who should she communicate with?

She can be more tolerant towards her children.

But Miss Ye is also an adult, why is she so emotional?

She would not preemptively be pessimistic about their relationship. At least the two children grew up in an environment full of "love". It's impossible to say that their acting skills are so good that they can fool even the most sensitive children.

Skye Cheng softened his tone: "I'm sorry, I just want to get into the role as soon as possible."

"Do you think this is a game of house?" Zara Ye almost laughed in anger.

Zara Ye remembered the scene when she and Skye Cheng formally met for the first time.

Although Skye Cheng was very tired at that time, his behavior was gentle and polite. Zara Ye liked the rational thinking conveyed by Skye Cheng very much when she spoke. Skye Cheng could even infer that she had practiced piano for a long time through her little habits and the thin callus on her little finger.

It was obviously Skye Cheng's first time to eat at a Michelin-starred restaurant, but when he communicated with the waiter, it was as if he was treating this place as a canteen.

The most important thing is that Skye Cheng will not discuss anything too professional with her. When talking about Skye Cheng's research direction, Dr. Cheng only mentioned it in very simple and easy-to-understand language, and did not use inscrutable terms to show how profound her knowledge was.

If Skye Cheng started talking about her academic achievements as soon as she came to the table, Zara Ye would immediately look down and regret that she had looked away. But Skye Cheng didn't. She was low-key, pragmatic and reliable.

The charm of a sapioS3xual is not how excellent the other person is, but that while she is excellent, she is also willing to consider her partner's thinking.

At that time, Zara Ye almost loved this feeling to death.

But now, when Skye Cheng used rational thinking to sort out the relationship between them, she only found it incredible and ridiculous.

Could it be that during the eight years he was with her, Skye Cheng used cold data to measure the relationship between them?

In other words, Skye Cheng doesn't care at all.

Is marriage just a partnership for her?

Reason told Zara Ye that the current Skye Cheng had no memory of the past ten years, but she could not help but associate the current Skye Cheng with her wife of eight years.

Does she really understand Skye Cheng?

In eight years, they didn't have a chance to analyze their feelings like they do now. Zara Ye couldn't accept that feelings were also weighed on the scales, and she couldn't accept that Skye Cheng would extend rational thinking to evaluating their relationship.

For the first time, she doubted whether Qi Skye Cheng married her because of love or because of "should".

But now there is no solution to this problem.

When asked about Skye Cheng, she would only answer "I don't know."

Zara Ye couldn't imagine that every K!ss and every love they had before was a decision made by Skye Cheng after weighing the pros and cons? Even what she thought was the fruit of love, their child was also the result of Skye Cheng's careful consideration apart from emotional factors?

Then all this would be too ridiculous.

Just when Zara Ye was deep in emotion, Skye Cheng whispered:

"Perhaps you would like to give me another chance?"

She said: "I was looking for a quick way to solve the trouble caused by my memory loss, but I found that this method was very ineffective in practice... so we..."

"Skye Cheng...I'm so scared..." Zara Ye interrupted.

She could accept that Skye Cheng was more rational than emotional in everything, but she couldn't accept that Skye Cheng remained rational and self-possessed when it came to maintaining their relationship.

She would wonder if Skye Cheng had never loved her at all.

Skye Cheng looked at Miss Ye Er, who was on the verge of losing control, and finally realized that she still positioned herself as a "stranger", while in the past eight years she had actually been the other person's "wife". Regardless of whether the marriage is voluntary or not, she will do her best to play this role in these eight years.

That’s why Miss Ye’s gap is so big now.

Skye Cheng does not believe that marriage is all about love, and that suitability is more important than love. Her physiological father married Ms. Cheng because of love, but didn't they end up in a commotion?

Moreover, even if there is no love between wives, there will still be family affection.

Obsessing over the question of "love or not" only adds to worries.

Skye Cheng said warmly: "Are you willing to develop a relationship with me again? During the period when I haven't recovered my memory."

Zara Ye looked up. This sentence sounded quite romantic at first. There was a sense of fate that even though they had lost their memory, they would still fall in love with each other again. She nodded decisively: "I do."

Only later did Zara Ye realize that this feeling referred to love, or maybe family affection.
