Chapter 571 - Chapter 571: Who Am I?

Translator: Lord bluefire

The man lay motionless on the cold metal bed.

Shen Ruojing immediately went to check his breathing and pulse. After finding that he had only been drugged and was not in danger, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned to Jing Zhen and asked, “How did you catch him?”

Song Chen should have known that someone in Country A’s royal family was targeting him, so he was always careful in Country A’s palace. How could he be easily caught?

Jing Zhen rubbed his nose and said, “Oh, I spread a rumor that I was looking for a son-in-law for you. I called him over to ask if he was interested and gave him a cup of tea. After that, he got nervous and drank it... the tea was drugged, and then I injected him with a large amount of anesthesia.”

Shen Ruojing.

It turned out that Jing Zhen used her again to manipulate Song Chen.

She rubbed her forehead and checked his various data. “How did you make him lose his memory?”

Jing Zhen looked up at the sky. “That’s my secret.”

Fine, it involved his patent invention again.

Shen Ruojing didn’t ask any more questions and instead asked, “Can he recover?”

For some reason, she felt a bit uncomfortable at the thought of Song Chen waking up and not recognizing her.

Jing Zhen said, “The human brain is a mysterious thing. Unlike a hard drive, if a hard drive is formatted, it may never be recovered. But the human brain, once it has memories, must still have them. Therefore, theoretically, if his brain has been formatted, he won’t remember anything. But it’s not certain...”

Shen Ruojing glanced at Jing Zhen with her eyes, noticing his choice of words, such as “hard drive” and “formatted.” She had a hunch about what he meant.

If it was really what she thought, she understood why Jing Zhen was keeping his patent invention a secret.

It was truly inhumane.

She didn’t say anything...

Perhaps it was because Jing Zhen had given him too much anesthesia, or perhaps it was because Song Chen was aware that someone had been targeting him during his time in Country A’s palace, he was exhausted and took the opportunity to rest.

It wasn’t until Shen Ruojing brought him on the plane and it was nearing their arrival time in China that Song Chen slowly opened his eyes.

She noticed that his eyes were initially confused, as if his whole brain was in a daze. But the next moment, a sharpness flashed in his eyes as he immediately surveyed his surroundings and sat up warily. Only then did he realize that he was on a plane, and he quickly grabbed the armrest next to him as if he was a vigilant cheetah, agile and ready.

“You’re awake?”

Shen Ruojing took a step forward, and the man immediately turned his head to look at her.

His eyes were full of unfamiliarity.

The alert look in his eyes made Shen Ruojing’s heart skip a beat. She felt uneasy seeing his unfamiliar gaze.

It was clear that Song Chen had forgotten about her, and she should have felt happy about it.

The man didn’t say anything. She was staring at Shen Ruojing for a while before hoarsely asking, “Who are you?”

Shen Ruojing was silent for a moment and replied, ‘Who I am is not important. What’s important is that you are Song Chen.”

The man was slightly stunned. “Song Chen?” He felt the name was unfamiliar to him.

He asked, “Where am I? Why am I here?’

Seeing his expression, Shen Ruojing thought for a moment, lowered her gaze, and kindly fabricated a lie. “You hit your head and lost your memory, but I will take you to your home.”

The man seemed unfamiliar with his surroundings, and he looked confused. He tightened his jaw and nodded. ‘Thank you.

Although he didn’t know what had happened and why he couldn’t remember anything, the man decided to wait and see.

Shen Ruojing saw that he didn’t speak, so she gradually became silent as well.

Fortunately, the plane was already preparing to land, and after taxiing, Shen Ruojing took Song Chen out of the door.

Shen Ruojing didn’t tell Chu Cichen that she was returning to China today because she knew that during this time, he was in Country A and would be jealous, so she decided to give him a surprise.

Hence, she first found a car and took Song Chen to an apartment.

This apartment was prepared by Lu Hui on behalf of Shen Ruojing, and its ownership had been transferred to Song Chen. Although they had no relationship anymore, Shen Ruojing still wanted to settle him in and had his sister move in there long ago.

She took Song Chen directly to the apartment.

The man followed her all the way, remaining silent and appearing cautious. It made Shen Ruojing feel inexplicably sour.

After taking him to the entrance of the apartment, she knocked on the door. Song Chen’s sister then opened it. Seeing her brother, she immediately threw herself into his arms and said, “Brother!”

But the man pushed her away and looked at her warily. “Who are you?”

The little girl was stunned for a moment, but she had been informed in advance by Lu Hui that her brother had lost his memory. So she answered gently, “Brother, I’m your sister.”

She timidly wanted to grab his hand.

But the man immediately shook her off, furrowed his brow tightly, and asked,

“Is this our home?’

The little girl nodded. “Yes.”

The man walked past her and into the room.

Shen Ruojing looked at them and remained silent for a moment before saying, “I’m leaving now.

As soon as she spoke, the little girl waved goodbye to her.

But when the man entered the room, he suddenly looked at her and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Don’t you live here?”

Shen Ruojing stuttered for a moment and didn’t know what to say.

Why did this man, even after losing his memory, still look so much like Chu Cichen?

She tightly clenched her fist and finally said, “1 don’t live here. I’m going back to my own home.”

The man looked at her in surprise.

Perhaps because she was the first person he saw after waking up, the man became dependent on her. When he heard her saying that she was leaving, he fell silent for a moment before finally speaking, “Okay.”

Shen Ruojing turned and left.

For a moment, she felt like she had lost something very important.

She took a deep breath.

She couldn’t go back and forth like this. She didn’t like Song Chen; the person she liked was Chu Cichen.

After silently saying these words to herself in her heart, Shen Ruojing got into the car and headed downstairs.

Lu Hui immediately turned on his gossip mode when he saw that her mood was not good. “Boss, do you know? Something happened to the Chu family while you were away!”

Shen Ruojing was slightly surprised. “What happened?”

Did something happen to Chu Cichen? Was that why he didn’t reply to her messages during this time?
