Fang Siyan didn't expect that this time when he said those three words, he didn't have any strange physical reactions. The previous feeling of a lump in his throat had also disappeared.
"Old Fang, can you never abandon me, no matter what happens or when?"
Ding Ruola knew that there might be many stories in Fang Siyan's life that she hadn't had the chance to be a part of. But since they were already husband and wife, they should trust each other.
She wanted to fully integrate into Fang Siyan's life in the days to come, instead of feeling like an outsider like she had in the past few days.
"This is a matter between the Fang family and the Gu family. I don't want to involve you in it."
Fang Siyan was still too idealistic. He thought that if Ding Ruola didn't participate in or even know about this matter, she could be detached from it.
But fate was like a tangled ball of wool, and no one could escape unscathed.
Fang's mother stood on the side in silence. Now that Fang Siyan was in power in the Fang family, it would be inappropriate for her to speak.
"Can you tell me what exactly happened in the past few days?"
Ding Ruola was insistent. She wouldn't stop until she got some answers.
She grabbed Fang Siyan's hand. Her eyes, which had just been crying, looked teary. The moles under her eyes were also soaked by the tears, twinkling with a faint glow when she looked up.
Fang Siyan couldn't resist Ding Ruola's coquetry. He could only simply tell her that his previous memories had returned.
He told Ding Ruola not to worry. Even though his previous memories had returned, he wouldn't fall for Gu Qianxue, and Gu Qianxue wouldn't be on the opposite side of Ding Ruola.
Ding Ruola didn't understand. How could Gu Qianxue not be on the opposite side? Weren't they childhood sweethearts with a good relationship?
"Gu Qianxue was just being used. The person you really need to be on guard against is Gu Tingjun."
Gu Tingjun!
The girl was stunned. Did Fang Siyan know that she had been in close contact with Gu Tingjun recently?
"Don't think about it! I asked my mother to come here just to prevent Gu Tingjun from coming to find you."
Before Ding Ruola could even ask, Fang Siyan had already answered her doubts.
In the matter of the Gu family mother and son, Fang's mother had the most say.
She stood beside Fang Siyan, putting her hand on his shoulder. Her brows were slightly furrowed as she stretched her neck and leaned her face closer to Ding Ruola.
"Neither of them is a good person!"
Ding Ruola was wondering. Was it because the Fang family mother and son were biased against the Gu family mother and son, or was she too naive and had been deceived by Gu Tingjun? She didn't think Gu Tingjun was as bad as they described.
But she couldn't show her doubts. She could only nod and say, "I won't meet Gu Tingjun again in the future."
Hearing Ding Ruola's promise, Fang Siyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he had asked his mother to come in time. Otherwise, his little wife would have been lured away by Gu Tingjun.
The three of them chatted idly for less than half an hour. Fang Siyan had to go back to the company to deal with some affairs, so he left in a hurry.
On his way out, he also helped Ding Ruola go through the discharge procedures.
Just as Ding Ruola and Fang's mother reached the hospital entrance, Zhang Jun was already waiting there.
"Brother Zhang!"
The girl was extremely surprised by Zhang Jun's appearance. She regarded him as a "news box".
Maybe she could get some information from Zhang Jun that Fang Siyan wouldn't tell her.
But Ding Ruola was still too naive.
No matter what she asked Zhang Jun, he only had one answer - I don't know.
The less you say, the less chance you have of making mistakes.
Zhang Jun had suffered a lot from Ding Ruola. He had once blurted out some information about Fang Siyan that shouldn't have been revealed, which had led to a sharp drop in his salary.
"Brother Zhang really won't reveal a single word."
Ding Ruola was still not giving up. She turned to look at Fang's mother, thinking that if Fang's mother could put some pressure on Zhang Jun, maybe he would talk.
Fang's mother understood what Ding Ruola meant, but the woman still remained silent.
By the time they got home, Zhang Jun still hadn't said a single word.
Zhang Jun watched them go upstairs before driving away.
"This little girl is really hard to deal with."
He had almost let the cat out of the bag. All of Fang Siyan's old secrets were in his hands.
After Ding Ruola got home, she had no mood to work. She thought that there was more to Fang Siyan's memory recovery this time than met the eye.
Based on the information she had obtained from Fang's mother, it seemed that Fang Siyan had always known about Gu Qianxue's existence.
Combined with her own understanding, Fang Siyan should remember Gu Qianxue, but he didn't know what exactly had happened between them.
The turning point in Fang Siyan's life memories was that kidnapping.
What exactly had happened during that kidnapping?
Who was the person who kidnapped Fang Siyan?
All these mysteries could only be solved by Fang Siyan or the older generation.
"Ruoruo, have something to eat!"
Fang's mother brought a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat congee and placed it on Ding Ruola's bedside.
Ding Ruola was flattered. Even Fang Siyan had never treated her like this. Mainly because Fang Siyan had high requirements for his daily routine and never allowed Ding Ruola to eat in bed.
"Auntie! I want to ask you something."
The girl hesitated. She knew that the events of that year were an inextinguishable pain for the Fang family. Asking about it so openly now might bring back bad memories for the old lady.
"You want to ask about Siyan's childhood, right?"
Fang's mother also knew that Ding Ruola would find out about this sooner or later.
She knew that Ding Ruola was so eager to find out about that year's events because she cared about Fang Siyan. And the events of that year had only had a greater impact on Fang Siyan.
"Auntie, are you willing to tell me?"
Fang's mother nodded and took Ding Ruola's hand.
The woman's voice was gentle and pleasant, and Ding Ruola was completely immersed in the story of that year.
Fang's mother wasn't very clear about the process of the kidnapping, but she was very familiar with the process of Fang Siyan's treatment for psychological trauma after being kidnapped.
The doctor who treated Fang Siyan at that time was recommended by Deng Lirong.
She hadn't thought much about it at that time.
At first, the feedback she got from Fang Siyan was quite good. But as time went on, Fang Siyan seemed to have changed into a different person.
The child used to be very lively, but after that, he seemed very cold.
Fang's mother thought that the child had been stimulated by his father's death, so she didn't think much about it.
But now it seemed that the situation that year shouldn't have been that simple.
Deng Lirong must have done something during the treatment of the two children.
"If I remember correctly, Auntie Deng seems to have studied accounting. She..."
"The environment in Europe is relatively open. Deng Lirong also took a minor in psychology at that time, but to what extent, she couldn't say for sure."
Psychology?
Ding Ruola was really impressed with Deng Lirong. She had thought that Deng Lirong was just an ordinary woman, but she didn't expect that this woman had some skills.
"I've always felt sorry for Qianxue. She's such a poor child."
Fang's mother felt more pity for Gu Qianxue. She felt sorry for her sister who had been persecuted by a man, so she also cared more about her sister's child.
