After She Fell for Me, I Lost My Memory (GL) - Chapter 32
Jian Mu and Su Nian went to the lounge.
There was no one else in the lounge. Jian Mu found a long bench to sit on, and Su Nian sat next to her.
Su Nian looked at Jian Mu and asked her, “CEO Jian, have you been here all these days?”
Jian Mu hummed in agreement.
Su Nian thought for a moment. She hadn’t heard of any problems with the company recently, so she asked, “Then, the company work…”
Before Su Nian could finish her sentence, she saw a faint dark circle under Jian Mu’s eyes. Was she staying up late?
She guessed, Was she staying at the hospital during the day and going back to work at night?
What was Jian Mu doing?
“CEO Jian, if there’s anything bothering you, you can tell me. I’m very good at keeping secrets.”
As she spoke, Su Nian made a zipping motion over her mouth with her hand.
Jian Mu glanced at her, opened her mouth, but didn’t say anything.
She didn’t know where to start.
Jian Mu was meticulous about the products and strict with her employees. The company was running very well, or it wouldn’t have become one of the top technology companies in the country in just five years.
If there was a weakness in Jian Mu, it would be in interpersonal communication. At first, Su Nian didn’t understand why Jian Mu looked for her. It was only after she started working that Su Nian understood that every profession has its own expertise, and everyone has their weaknesses.
Perhaps in Jian Mu’s opinion, she was the right person to compensate for Jian Mu’s weakness back then.
After a long time, Su Nian heard Jian Mu’s voice:
“I made a mistake, but I don’t know what to do.”
“Hmm?” Su Nian thought she had misheard and let out a soft “hmm.”
Jian Mu didn’t repeat what she had just said.
Su Nian got up from the chair and stood in front of Jian Mu, asking, “What mistake did you make?”
Jian Mu pursed her lips, lowered her head slightly, and whispered softly: “I was too cold to her.”
“I always didn’t answer her calls or reply to her messages.”
“Sigh, that’s just normal, isn’t it?” As soon as Su Nian said this, she realized that the atmosphere was wrong. She cleared her throat. “Go on.”
However, Jian Mu didn’t say anything else. She just lowered her head slightly, her hair covering half of her face.
She looked very much like a helpless child.
This was the first time Su Nian had ever seen Jian Mu like this.
In university, Jian Mu once took her to participate in a technology innovation planning competition. Their opponents included not only college students but also many people who had been working for many years.
Su Nian didn’t have any experience at that time. She could only use her words, and she didn’t know much about technology.
Closer to the competition, Su Nian was talking frantically to Jian Mu to hide her nervousness. At that time, she had only known Jian Mu for two months. She was very afraid that she wouldn’t perform well and would be useless to Jian Mu.
Then the promise Jian Mu made wouldn’t count.
Thinking of her sick father and her sister who was about to start elementary school, she wanted to seize this hard-won opportunity.
At that time, Jian Mu only told her coldly: “I watched your debate competition. It was very good.”
That one sentence filled her with confidence.
So, all along, Jian Mu had been a person in her heart who was powerful, even though she was quiet and disliked socializing.
This was the first time she had seen her so helpless.
“Wait, CEO Jian, if I may ask, what is your relationship with her? Are you partners?”
Only then did Su Nian realize. The person who could make Jian Mu act like this must be her partner, right?
Jian Mu was silent for a while, then she replied: “In her eyes, not anymore.”
Su Nian: “…”
Not in her eyes?
But still in yours?
Su Nian thought she hadn’t misunderstood.
However, thinking that Jian Mu said she always didn’t answer calls and didn’t reply to messages, it was indeed very excessive.
“Then, this is what you should do. Just go directly and apologize to her.”
“She has amnesia. She doesn’t recognize me anymore.”
After saying that, Jian Mu lowered her head. Her thin lips were pursed into a straight line.
For a moment, Su Nian didn’t know what to say to comfort her.
Before visiting the hospital, Su Nian had indeed heard Yinyin mention Cen Luo’s amnesia and thought that it would be a difficult situation to handle.
All sorts of thoughts swirled in Su Nian’s mind. Before she could think of any comforting words for Jian Mu, she heard Jian Mu’s almost inaudible voice:
“And, she doesn’t want to see me.”
“Then why are you standing outside the door?” Su Nian paused, looking at Jian Mu strangely.
She doesn’t want to see you, but if you stand outside the door for days, how can she not see you?
“I want to see her.” Jian Mu suddenly looked up, staring in the direction of Cen Luo’s ward.
Su Nian: “…”
Jian Mu pursed her lips. After she went home that day, she thought about a lot of things. Everything she had never paid attention to before surfaced in her mind.
She searched through all her memories and remembered one of the few times Cen Luo got angry.
It was before they were together. Cen Luo’s roommate found her and told her that Cen Luo was crying in the lecture hall. Jian Mu didn’t know what happened. All she knew was that Cen Luo threw a huge tantrum that day and scolded her.
The echo in the lecture hall was loud. Jian Mu was holding a book. Seeing an empty seat next to her, she was about to sit down. However, Cen Luo noticed her movement, stopped crying, looked up at her, and snapped at her: “Don’t move!”
Jian Mu stopped walking and stood there, looking at Cen Luo:
“Your roommate said you were crying here.”
Cen Luo wiped her eyes, annoyed and embarrassed, and scolded her: “What does my crying have to do with you?”
“If you want to stand, stand outside. I don’t want to see you.”
As soon as Cen Luo finished speaking, Jian Mu turned around and left the classroom.
Cen Luo was angry about this for a long time and stayed in the classroom until evening before leaving.
But as soon as she walked out, she saw Jian Mu standing outside the door, holding a textbook and reading.
In an instant, Cen Luo suddenly burst into laughter, feeling speechless and amused. She was no longer angry. She dragged Jian Mu out to eat a big meal.
Su Nian scratched her head. These words made no sense. She couldn’t help solve the problem either.
“I feel like your situation is a little difficult. To summarize, she has amnesia, she doesn’t like you anymore, but you like her a lot and don’t want to lose her. You want to win her back, right?”
Su Nian asked Jian Mu.
Jian Mu hesitated: “Is it love?”
“What else could it be? Wait, no. Let me ask you. If you see her being intimate with someone else, does it hurt here?”
Su Nian pointed to her heart.
Just hearing Su Nian say this, Jian Mu’s mind was filled with scenes of Cen Luo interacting with Zhao Zhao and Xu Yanyan.
That feeling made it hard for her to breathe. Jian Mu nodded slightly.
“Then, let’s say you’re a couple, but you’re both very busy and don’t see each other often. Do you feel uncomfortable?”
Jian Mu was stunned by her question: “Why would I feel uncomfortable?”
There was a period of time when her and Cen Luo’s way of interacting was like this. Because they were both very busy during that time, they didn’t have many chances to see each other.
“Because some people are just used to having certain people around. When they leave, they feel very uncomfortable. It’s not necessarily love.”
Jian Mu was silent. After a long time, she asked Su Nian: “Is seeing her smile at other women and wanting to pull her into my arms, but also being afraid that she’ll get angry, also a habit?”
“Ah… that symptom might not be a habit.” Su Nian sighed. Jian Mu was in love and didn’t even know it.
The two of them were silent for a long time. Su Nian was trying to figure out how to help Jian Mu, and Jian Mu was thinking about what Su Nian had said.
“Am I, too late.”
Perhaps she should have faced her emotional abnormality sooner. Perhaps she shouldn’t have done those things that she thought were good for the other person.
Jian Mu’s face was full of disappointment, making Su Nian feel helpless for a moment.
“But, CEO Jian, why did you only realize you liked her when others didn’t like her anymore? Are you acting in some melodramatic drama?”
Although she felt a little sorry for Jian Mu, Su Nian still had to ask this question.
Su Nian didn’t know how many years Jian Mu and Cen Luo had been entangled, but since they were able to be in a relationship, shouldn’t she have considered this question?
After a long time, just when Su Nian thought Jian Mu wouldn’t answer, she heard her reply:
“I might not have wanted to admit it.”
Then you deserve it.
These words instantly appeared in Su Nian’s mind when she heard Jian Mu’s answer.
But she swallowed the words before they could come out.
She silently chanted “repay kindness, repay kindness” twice in her heart.
Then she smiled at Jian Mu and said: “CEO Jian, although what you said was fragmented, I think my general direction is correct.”
“I suggest you sign up for a class on how to win back your ex-girlfriend.”
“Also, if you have any other obstacles in other aspects, remember to seek medical attention in time. Please don’t let something like not wanting to admit it happen again, okay?”
Su Nian even used the respectful term “you.” Although she was annoyed by Jian Mu’s actions, she thought that she wasn’t completely hopeless, so Su Nian held back her urge not to help her.
Who told her to ask too many questions? Who told her to repay kindness?
Although Jian Mu felt that Su Nian’s tone was a little strange, it seemed to make some sense, so she nodded.
The day before Cen Luo was discharged from the hospital, she was bored and played on her phone in bed for a while.
Since her body had fully recovered, there weren’t as many people looking after her.
That day, she clicked on the social media app that she hadn’t opened for a long time.
Last time, she commented on a post about Zhao Zhao that she saw online, and she was relentlessly scolded all night.
She was so angry that she immediately started arguing with the person on the other side.
Although she was very angry, the other person was vulgar, and she won because she was well-mannered.
When Zhao Zhao found out about this, she laughed for a long time and said that she told her not to talk like that online because it would be seen as being mean to others.
[This picture of Zhao Zhao is so pretty, but she’s even prettier in person. I suggest not putting this person’s picture next to Zhao Zhao’s next time.]
Cen Luo looked at her own words for a long time. Wasn’t it just a simple statement? She even gave a sincere suggestion. Why was it considered being mean? Are people ten years later so sensitive to the truth?
Zhao Zhao was objectively prettier than the other person. Wouldn’t putting them side by side just make the other person look bad?
She didn’t understand.
However, Cen Luo was forced not to open this app again.
Although Zhao Zhao laughed, seeing that she was very angry, she specially contacted her lawyer to help her vent her frustration.
Now, looking at the other party’s apology statement, Cen Luo felt completely refreshed.
But when she exited the app, Cen Luo saw a small red dot next to the “likes” section.
Cen Luo had a slight compulsive disorder, so she clicked on it.
Most of the likes were for her comment praising Zhao Zhao.
However, on the newest liked comment, Cen Luo saw that someone had liked a comment she made a month ago.
It was a completely different answer from the comment she had in her drafts.
