Chapter 880: 880: The Amnesia Plot
Ling Qianchen tried his best to suppress the excitement deep inside, but he couldn’t stop himself from smiling. He quickly answered, “It’s because I’ve used the apps to see how I would look when I grow up. I look exactly like you!”
Di Yunxi couldn’t help but laugh. His thick, gentle laughter was like a musical piece played on a cello as it enveloped Ling Qianchen.
When Di Yunxi laughed, Ling Qianchen couldn’t hold it in anymore and happily laughed as well.
“So you really are my daddy?”
“En,” Di Yunxi nodded his head and pinched Ling Qianchen’s adorable cheeks. They were so soft and chubby.
Ling Qianchen widened his eyes in shock.
He only a.s.sumed since this handsome man looked similar to him. He was only curious; he never expected it to be true.
Ling Qianchen bit his lips. He forcefully suppressed his excitement and asked, “But Mummy said that you are a soldier. When she was pregnant with me, we lost you during a mission. This was why I never had a father since I was born.”
Di Yunxi was gently caressing his son’s cheeks, and he didn’t let go of it.
His heart ached a little after hearing what his son said.
“Is that so? That’s what your mother told you?”
“Yes.” Ling Qianchen stared at Di Yunxi and continued asking, “So, you didn’t die? Then why didn’t you come back? Is it because you found someone better and abandoned Mummy?”
After asking this, the happy glow in Ling Qianchen’s eyes disappeared. His bright eyes looked like black gems, and there was a suspicious look in his big eyes.
“No. There is no one else,” Di Yunxi immediately denied. “Other than your mother, there is no one else.”
Ling Qianchen, who looked a little dull after asking the question, suddenly brightened up with hope and joy, like every other child.
“But… Why didn’t you come back to us?”
“I lost my memory.”
Ling Qianchen was speechless.
“When I went on a mission, I fell off of a cliff. Everyone a.s.sumed that I was dead, which is why they informed your mother that I was dead, but I survived the fall. I injured my head, which is why I forgot your mother.”
“This sounds like one of the plots in those melodramas.”
His son was speaking in an adorable voice, but the words that he was saying were sharp and mean.
Di Yunxi sighed to himself quietly, thinking that this boy was definitely his son. He was such an intelligent boy. Di Yunxi had to immediately come up with a story of how a CEO like him had lost his memory.
“It is indeed, but the story isn’t like how your mother told you.”
“How is it different?” Ling Qianchen asked.
“This is because when I met your mother, I had already lost my memory.”
Now, Ling Qianchen was confused.
“You haven’t met your grandparents, right? You also have not met your uncles and aunt?”
“En!” Ling Qianchen nodded his head and his eyes brightened up with hope as he continued asking, “I have such a huge family?!”
Di Yunxi nodded his head, “En. You have grandparents, second uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, and your aunt, who is a gentle, beautiful, and talented woman. When I was injured and hurt my head, I forgot every one of them. I thought I was the only one with no family, which was why I joined the army. That’s when I met your mother and spent wonderful days with her.”
