Chapter 963: She Didn’t Know Who She Was
It’s a secret to others that her memory was incomplete. As a result, she could not remember many things. She could not remember who she was, where her home was, or anything that had happened in her past.
Her memory began four years ago. When she opened her eyes, she was abandoned in a mountain. Her entire body was in pain, in extreme pain, especially her stomach.
She lifted her clothes to check and saw a long scar on her stomach. It looked like she had undergone some kind of surgery. Someone st.i.tched her up, but the st.i.tching was ugly. The scar looked like a twisted bug crawling.
It was ugly but funny.
She suspected that the doctor who did the st.i.tching held a grudge against her and did it on purpose.
Later, she left the mountain and wanted to make a living. She found that she didn’t know anything besides her combat skills. She did wonder if she was the precious daughter of a Mafia family who had never done ch.o.r.es and only knew little martial arts.
There was no way to test her theories because she had no memory. Her life on Earth continued, and that meant she needed money. So she needed to find a job.
However, making money was difficult. She did not know anything. She could not work at a company because she wasn’t pretty enough. Therefore, she did not have a share in jobs that paid well. When she found out that she did not even know how to do basic housework such as was.h.i.+ng clothes and cooking.. she did feel hopeless.
She didn’t know how she was able to live for so long.
After drifting in some other city for two or three years, she accidentally came to this city. She was lucky and entered Bai’s Martial Arts Dojo. The Hall Master named her Bai Qi. Although she didn’t make a lot of money working at the dojo, it was enough for her to sustain her life. Moreover, the Hall Master and the people in the dojo treated her very well, and she felt warmth.
This was the first time she had felt kindliness in four years. She wanted to hold on to it.
However…
Bai Qi dropped her head and slowly lifted her clothes. It had been four years. Her lower abdomen was flat and firm, but the pale pink twisted scar had not disappeared.
It had always been there.
Bai Qi stretched out her slender, fair finger and slowly caressed the scar. She suddenly felt a heartache. It was as if something important had come into her life, but she had lost it…
Bai Qi felt a headache. She reached out and covered her head. These four years, she would have occasional headaches. So she couldn’t recall the past.
At this moment, Her phone rang, and she received a call.
“h.e.l.lo, Hall Master…” she answered the call.
“h.e.l.lo, Bai Qi, Have you taken care of the matter yet? The sun will rise soon, and we have been trembling all night. Have you settled it? If those people came to chase us out, what should we do?” The Hall Master’s worried voice came from the other side.
Bai Qi pursed her lips and said softly, “Hall Master, don’t worry. It’s… settled.”
“Really? That’s great…”
Bai Qi hung up the phone.
Holding the phone tightly in her hand, Bai Qi took a deep breath and found a phone number. It was the number she had gotten from the producer yesterday.
She dialed the number.
About ten seconds later, the call went through. The man’s deep and masculine voice came through, “h.e.l.lo…”
If Bai Qi didn’t know this person and only heard his voice, perhaps she would be mesmerized. His voice was very nice and s.e.xy.
But this person was a devil!
Bai Qi gripped the phone tightly. “I will do as you say.”
The other end was silent for a few seconds. Then, the man laughed and said in a very low voice, “humph…”
Bai Qi’s entire body trembled. This laughter was like a tyrant mocking his subjects. She felt deeply humiliated.
She took a deep breath and asked, “Where do I go? The hotel?”
“No need. I’ll drive over. I’ll contact you then.” The man hung up the phone.
Listening to the busy tone on the other end, Bai Qi wanted to throw her phone on the ground. However, she didn’t. She couldn’t bear to do so. If she threw it away, she would have to buy another one, a self-torment.
Bai Qi raised her head and looked into the mirror. Her mood suddenly brightened up. Indeed, she wasn’t pretty, and she wasn’t young either. She was about twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old. She wasn’t as young as Liu Chengcheng, who was twenty years old. Moreover, she wasn’t sure if she was a virgin or not, probably not.
What was there for her to be pretentious about?
The matter will be over in a blink of an eye. It’ll be as if she’d been bit by a dog.
Bai Qi originally planned to wrap herself in three layers. On second thought, no matter how tightly she wrapped herself, she still had to take them off. So she gave up and even chose a dress to put on.
…
It was an autumn morning, 6:30 am. It was still very early, and there were very few pedestrians on the street. At this time, a cool and s.h.i.+ny car was parked by the side of the road.
The driver’s window was rolled down, revealing an extraordinarily handsome face. A well-defined large palm was extended out, and between his index and middle fingers was a cigarette. Zhou Yao squinted his eyes and smoked casually.
Soon, a graceful figure appeared in his line of sight. Bai Qi was here. Today, she was wearing a green chiffon s.h.i.+rt, and a black leather skirt wrapped around her waist.
Zhou Yao’s smoking palm froze and was in a trance for a moment. He felt as if the woman he loved the most was walking towards him.
He didn’t know if it was because this woman was too similar to her, but ever since he saw her at the production, he was in this illusion.
The pa.s.senger door opened, and Bai Qi sat in it expressionlessly.
He didn’t speak, and Bai Qi didn’t speak either. The air in the car was very cold. Suddenly, the man beside her had finished smoking, and the car window slid up.
The car was completely sealed.
Bai Qi clenched her two small hands, which were on her lap.
Zhou Yao glanced at Bai Qi sideways. Her face was unfamiliar and ordinary, but he was willing to take a few more glances because of her eyes. Her face was pale at the moment. All life had left her face.
His gaze fell on her clenched fists. She was enduring.
“Let’s begin,” he said indifferently.
Bai Qi began unb.u.t.toning her chiffon s.h.i.+rt slowly. She took off her chiffon s.h.i.+rt, but she was also wearing a vest underneath. She repeatedly reminded herself that it would be over, soon and that she just needed to pretend to be dead. However, when the slightly cold air swept over her body, she still hesitated for a moment.
Was she going to give up on herself like this?
Was there no turning back?
“Regretting?” The man leaned over and Bai Qi felt his weight against her. The clean and refres.h.i.+ng scent of the man, mixed with the smell of tobacco, invaded her senses immediately.
The smell on his body was very strong, pure, and masculine, very invasive. Bai Qi subconsciously wanted to escape, so she moved closer to the pa.s.senger window.
“Isn’t it too late to go back on your words now?”
As soon as he said that, his big palm fell on her black leather skirt.
Bai Qi was shocked, and then her legs felt cold. Her black leather skirt was lifted.
She quickly shut her eyes. She kept comforting herself, saying, “It’ll be over soon, it’ll be over soon.”
