Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 308

Chapter 308: Selective Amnesia
After a while, Xiao Yiqing slowly opened her eyes and looked at the surrounding environment with unfocused eyes. It took her a long time to regain her focus and recall what had happened. The day she decided to jump, she was ready to die. She didn’t expect to survive.

She closed her eyes and tried to feel the presence of Mu Yiqing’s soul. After a long time, she opened her eyes again and smiled. She finally took her body back from that foreign soul!

She looked around and saw her brother sitting there in a daze. Seeing her brother’s haggard appearance now, her eyes were a little sore. His beard was unkempt and his clothes were wrinkled, as if he had not slept for a long time.

She took a deep breath, controlled her emotions, and called softly, “Brother.”

Her voice was somewhat muffled due to the oxygen mask she was wearing. Seeing that her brother didn’t hear her, she called him again, “Brother.”

This time, Xiao Yiguan suddenly came back to his senses when he heard her voice. He raised his head suddenly and looked at her in disbelief. They stared at each other for a moment, as if a lifetime had passed since they last saw each other.

Xiao Yiguan stood up, strode to the bed, and held her hands. He looked into her eyes and asked, “Qingqing, can you hear me?”

Xiao Yiqing nodded weakly and said, “Brother, I miss you.”

Listening to her gentle tone, Xiao Yiguan’s eyes were red and he said, “Qingqing, you finally woke up.”

After saying that, he quickly pressed the button above the bed. Not long after, several doctors and nurses entered the VIP ward and performed a full-body examination on Xiao Yiqing. It took several hours to complete the examination. Because she had just woken up from a coma and was seriously injured, Xiao Yiqing fell asleep as soon as she returned to the ward.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yiguan was sitting opposite the doctor in the doctor’s office. The doctor put the examination results on the table and said, “Comrade Xiao, these are the examination results of your sister. In addition to a broken leg and head injury, she also suffers from selective amnesia.”

After hearing the doctor’s words, Xiao Yiguan asked, “Doctor, what do you mean?”

“We asked the patient some questions, and her memory stayed in the period before she went to Xie village for the rural program. In other words, she forgot everything that happened there. This included those events and all those people related to Xie village.” The doctor explained.

Xiao Yiguan was silent after listening to the doctor’s words. Thinking about what happened there, it might be a good thing for his sister to forget everything about Xie village.

“Doctor, is it possible for her to regain her memory?” he asked.

The doctor thought for a while and said, “There is a possibility for that, but the probability of it happening is very low, because the cause of her amnesia may be trauma she suffered there. Without the help of doctors and medication, it would be difficult for her to recover her memory.”

Hearing his words, Xiao Yiguan breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the doctor and said, “Doctor, neither my family nor I want my sister to regain her memory. Therefore, her amnesia does not require treatment and I hope you won’t mention anything about it to her either.”

Although the doctor does not know what happened to the patient in Xie village, he respects the decision of the patient and her family. So, he nodded and said, “I understand.”

At the same time, in the VIP ward, Xiao Yiqing had woken up and looked at the sky outside the window. During the examination, she remembered everything. Although the person who controlled her body at the time was Mu Yiqing, she watched everything unfolding in front of her helplessly like a ghost.

But because of all the evil deeds Mu Yiqing committed using her identity, Xiao Yiqing felt guilty toward those who were harmed by Mu Yiqing, especially toward her best friend Pan Meijia. Therefore, she acts as if she has forgotten everything that happened in Xie Village. She hopes doctors won’t let her down and will tell her family she has amnesia. In this way, even if she loses her value as the Xiao family’s daughter, she can at least start a new life.

While she was lost in thought, Xiao Yiguan opened the door and walked in front of her. He sat on the chair next to the bed and said, “Qingqing, are you feeling uncomfortable in any way?”

Hearing her brother’s voice, Xiao Yiqing came back to her senses. She looked at him and smiled, “My legs feel sore and a little painful.”

Xiao Yiguan hesitated for a while and said, “Qingqing, when you were in a coma, our parents arranged a marriage for you with a good man. We will hold a wedding when you are discharged from the hospital.”

Xiao Yiqing nodded after listening to his words and said, “I have no objection. But brother, can I see him first?”

Xiao Yiguan nodded and said with a smile, “Brother will contact him to see if he can come to visit you.”

“Thank you, brother.”

Seeing that his sister didn’t refuse, he sighed in relief. This is indeed how his sister would behave. She knew that rejecting this marriage was futile and was willing to shoulder the responsibility of being the daughter of the Xiao family. When she woke up from the coma, the person she was before who was full of hatred, jealousy, and malice, seemed like a dream.

Xiao Yiguan stretched out his hand, touched his sister’s head, and said, “Qingqing, don’t blame our parents for arranging this marriage for you. Although he is a divorcee, he does not love his ex-wife and has no children with her.”

Xiao Yiqing just lowered her head and said nothing. The marriage was just a political exchange between the two families. Love and family affection was something she couldn’t even think about. As long as they could respect each other, she was content. But what her brother said next surprised her.
