Ning Meng's body stiffened. After a while, she let out a heavy sigh. "Yes, I just remembered something."
Huo Beichen's expression froze. For a moment, he felt that the happy life he had been living now was just an illusion. It was like a bubble that would burst with a gentle poke.
He would have to return to the same life that he had lived for the past eight years. It was like an endless loneliness and waiting.
His fingers froze, and his palms broke out in a cold sweat.
He looked at the back of the girl's head and wanted to reach out and hug her tightly. He wanted to tell her not to leave him.
However, he did not dare to do so. He was afraid that she would slowly dissipate like a bubble like eight years ago …
His mouth moved, and his Adam's apple moved up and down.
He wanted to say something but did not know how to ask. Just as he was hesitating, he heard Ning Meng say, "I remember eight years ago. I was in Digao. I went to your school."
Huo Beichen was stunned when he heard this.
He furrowed his brows, hesitated, and looked at her in disbelief.
Eight years ago … Digao?
How could it be Digao?
Digao? Was that not the school that the original body of this body, the playboy Ning Meng, had gone to?
Ning Meng's gaze was fixed in front of her.
Yes.
She had just been stimulated and received a memory of high school from this body.
The original Miss Ning Meng had gone to high school in Digao. During high school, she had been very popular with her classmates. From Ning Meng's point of view, it was as if she had God's vision. She saw the scene of her coming to Hai City No.1 High School during a joint examination.
Then, she saw Huo Beichen and his girlfriend.
The two of them were walking in front. His girlfriend was wearing a baggy pair of jeans and a baseball cap. She could not see her face, but she was holding his arm affectionately. As she walked, her ponytail swayed. It was very cute.
Huo Beichen suddenly stopped and turned his head. He reached out his hand and touched the girl's face. The two of them were so intimate that people could not help but envy them.
If they showed off their love, they would die quickly.
This was the vicious curse that the Miss had been cursing in her heart.
However, she quickly put this matter to the back of her mind. To her, this was just a small episode.
Ning Meng closed her eyes.
She had always had a good attitude. Even if everyone said that he treated her well and liked her because she looked like his' ex-girlfriend ', she had never questioned him about it.
She felt that it was okay for Huo Beichen to have a past, as long as he looked forward to the future.
Until she recalled the ex-girlfriend who was supposed to have "passed away" in her original body's memory.
When she became a living person from other people's words and lived in her memory, an indescribable sourness welled up in her heart.
That was right.
She, Ning Meng, was jealous.
He began to feel jealous.
And the kind that couldn't be coaxed.
Ning Meng's jaw tightened and her face turned pale. Then, she heard the man behind her asking cautiously, "What did you think of?"
Ning Meng closed her eyes and pouted. "During the second mock exam in the third year of high school, Imperial College and your school were mixed together. The exam venue was also the same. Coincidentally, I was assigned to your school's exam venue. That was when I met your girlfriend."
"??"
His mouth was slightly agape, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
She had seen her from eight years ago in this body's memory??
His heart was filled with a sense of absurdity.
As he was digesting this fact, he saw Ning Meng turn her head and ask fiercely, "Am I prettier or is she prettier?"
Huo Beichen was speechless.
She was asking who was prettier compared to eight years ago. How was he supposed to answer that?
He smiled bitterly. "Meng Meng, stop it."
Ning Meng said angrily, "I'm not trying to slander her. I only saw her back. She was so skinny and didn't have any meat on her body. My figure is better than hers, right?"
After saying this, Ning Meng puffed out her chest.
"…"
His gaze fell on a certain spot and he thought for a while. "Two ounces?"
Ning Meng was confused.
Following the man's gaze, she saw something too. Suddenly, her face turned red. "You … Why are you acting like a hooligan?!"
Huo Beichen laughed and patted her head. "Alright, I'll go cook you some chicken soup noodles. Is that okay?"
The corner of Ning Meng's mouth twitched and she waved at him.
After Huo Beichen left the bedroom, Ning Meng's heart sank.
On one hand, it was the joy from when they were young. She had been pining for him for so many years.
On the other hand, it was the wife that he had a good impression of …
No wonder Huo Beichen had changed the topic and did not answer her question.
However, was it really okay for her to be jealous of someone who was no longer in this world?!
Ning Meng's heart was in a mess, but she did not show it on her face.
After Huo Beichen had finished cooking, she ate with him. Both of them sat on the sofa and Ning Meng leaned into Huo Beichen's embrace. Both of them watched a movie together.
In the movie, it was a tear-jerking love story. Because they did not cherish each other when they were young, they missed each other in the end. Ning Meng's face was full of tears as she watched.
She took a napkin and said to Huo Beichen, "Brother Beichen, let's talk about any misunderstandings in the future. Don't let each other miss each other because of some things, okay?"
Huo Beichen paused for a while and nodded his head. He felt that his nod was not enough, so he said, "Okay."
Ning Meng looked at him and hugged his neck. "Then, can you let go of your past and live a good life with me?"
Huo Beichen's eyes dimmed.
That love eight years ago was a redemption for him.
But for her, for their future, he was willing to let go …
He stretched out his arms and pulled Ning Meng into his embrace. "Okay."
That night, Huo Beichen put in extra effort.
He seemed to want to prove with his actions that she was the only one he cared about …
Ning Meng could feel his silent vow and fell asleep with a smile on her face …
The next morning, before Huo Beichen left, Ning Meng's back was still sore and her legs were so weak that she could not get up. After sending him off in a daze, she fell asleep again.
In the afternoon, she was woken up by the sharp ringing of her phone.
She answered the phone in a daze and heard a voice coming from the other side. "Meng Meng, bad news! Something has happened!"
Ning Meng's drowsiness disappeared instantly. She rushed to the Four Seasons Hotel and went upstairs to room 1808.
The moment she knocked on the door, it was opened, and Cao Xuehua's shrill cry could be heard.
When she entered the room, she saw Ning Wentao sitting on the sofa like a child who had done something wrong. Han Meilin, on the other hand, had a tense expression on her face and was staring blankly.
Only Cao Xuehua was shouting angrily, "Shameless! Both of you are shameless! Ning Wentao, you fooled around with her yesterday. Tell me, are you thinking of divorcing me and getting together with this vixen?! "
There would be a big climax tomorrow. Plot Preview: Huo Beichen grabbed Ning Meng's shoulder. "Ning Meng, it's you! It's all because of you! It was you eight years ago, and it's still you now! It's always been you! It's always been you! "
