Chapter 16 The Surprise He Prepared Long Ago
Very few people knew that Xie Nanchen had lost his memory.
His chief assistant was one of them.
After he regained his memory, the chief assistant carefully observed his expression.
“Mr. Xie, do we still need to investigate Madam’s matter?”
Xie Nanchen’s face remained unchanged.
“No need. Her lover is me.”
The chief assistant: “......?”
Fortunately, the year-end bonus was doubled.
Everyone was happy.
Except Gu Yu and Zhou Nan.
He refused to settle as the victim.
Zhou Nan was detained for half a month.
In despair, she drove her car and broke one of Gu Yu’s legs.
Gu Yu was forcibly sent abroad for treatment.
He might never come back in this lifetime.
Life finally returned to complete calm.
The barrage had also disappeared for a very long time.
One year later, after Xie Nanchen coaxed the child to sleep and handed him to the nanny, he drove me to a villa halfway up the mountain.
The top floor was a bedroom made entirely of smart dimming glass.
My gaze fell on the soft, clean big bed.
“What kind of play is this now?”
Ever since I gave birth, Xie Nanchen kept coming up with new tricks to prove he was better than any “lover” and forced me to take back my words.
When passion peaked, he would ask me: “Who’s better?”
My vision blurred, and I could only coax him helplessly.
It was clearly the same person—I didn’t understand what obsession he had.
But tonight I finally understood.
He pressed a switch.
The surroundings turned transparent.
My eyes trembled.
A sea of Tianhe Fanxing flowers swayed gently in the summer night breeze.
And we were right in the middle of it.
“I started preparing this surprise a few days before the car accident that caused my amnesia. Unfortunately, it took until now.”
“The confession I owe you—it’s not too late now, right?”
My eyes felt swollen.
“If you liked me, why didn’t you say it earlier? You enjoy secret crushes that much?”
Xie Nanchen stayed silent.
He tilted his head to look at me, a rare trace of resentment in his gaze.
“I wonder who said she didn’t want to develop feelings with a marriage partner.”
I: “......”
Back then, before meeting Xie Nanchen, my mom said this young man seemed very sincere and might actually like me.
I had just ended a relationship that felt like swallowing a fly, so naturally I had zero expectations for romance.
“What feelings with a marriage partner? If he really likes me, I’d be even less likely to marry him.”
Unexpectedly, he overheard that sentence.
That was why Xie Nanchen proposed those conditions, leading to the marriage we have today.
We looked at each other and couldn’t help laughing.
Fate really is strange.
