Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 341 - 339: Danger Yet Fondness

With the situation having reached this point, Chu Yanhan could only frown and say no more.

——*——

After seeing the two lines on the pregnancy test, Jiayi began to feel restless.

As night fell, a gentle breeze swept through the air, carrying the delicate fragrance of the plants in the Chu family’s garden below, along with the distant sound of waves lightly slapping against the coastal rocks.

The night sky of the Southeast Asian Island Nation was beautiful, with the weather clear and starry that night, as stars peppered the velvet blue sky, serene and lovely.

It was an environment conducive to sleep, but she felt no trace of drowsiness.

The more peaceful the surroundings, the more turbulent her emotions.

She could finally remember her past, but the year after Chu Xinyue had pushed her down the cliff in China was completely blank.

While most of her memory had finally returned, she had lost almost a year’s worth of short-term recollection—

That should be considered lucky, right? Yet, she didn’t feel any happiness because...

Her hand slipped to her lower abdomen, where an unknown new life was growing.

The memories of that year had almost completely stripped away from her life.

It was as if she had been in a state of slumber, living the life of a vegetative person for a year.

What on earth had happened during that year?

Whose child was this—

She had yet to believe the result of the pregnancy test even after a whole day.

An unexpected new life growing inside her would be unacceptable to any unmarried woman.

Moreover, not remembering who had impregnated her, or even when the pregnancy could have occurred, only deepened her fear.

The wedding at the church was to be held tomorrow; perhaps the child was Ya Chen’s, which would be a relief.

But what if the child wasn’t Ya Chen’s?

Jiayi dared not continue the thought.

She had a strong premonition that the child might not be Ya Chen’s.

Standing on the balcony, despite the long time she spent in the breeze, her mind remained a blank slate.

Before being discharged from the hospital, Jiayi had privately asked the attending doctor if this short-term memory loss could be recovered, and how long it might take.

The doctor had replied that since her amnesia had improved over the course of more than a year, it was optimistic that her short-term memory could also be regained with intensified brain training. She might slowly recall everything; as for the time required, it was uncertain—possibly several months or even years.

Losing short-term memory felt no less painful than losing long-term memory.

Jiayi’s heart grew more and more chaotic until a tiny voice behind her spoke up, "Third Miss, we have to go to the church early in the morning. We will need to get up at dawn to change and prepare; you should rest now, or you won’t have the energy."

Jiayi’s mind stirred, and she called Xiaxia over, "Xiaxia, since my return to the Chu Family, have I had any close contact with any man besides Ya Chen?"

Xiaxia obviously understood what she wanted to know but shook her head helplessly, "Third Miss, you’ve only been back a few days and attended the Ya Family’s horse racing event. That same night, you were taken to live in the castle by the Ya Family and only returned these past few days. I wasn’t by your side, and the master has forbidden us servants from inquiring too much about your matters at the Ya Family."

She knew Xiaxia truly didn’t know; her face fell, and she said no more.

After being urged a few more times by Xiaxia, Jiayi pulled herself back to the present and walked into her room.

It was getting late; she changed into her pajamas and went to bed.

Maybe it was because she had been suspicious all night, but her sleep was filled with nightmares, her mind like a carousel of images, as if watching a movie.

In her dream, a tall, distinguished figure approached her like a jungle panther, agile and overbearing, closing in inch by inch until there was no retreat, then lifting her chin with a voice rich and profound, melodious like an orchestra yet chilling enough to make one shiver:

"Little Kitten, are you thinking of running away again—"

A dangerous and formidable presence closed in, causing her tension to rise, feeling suffocated as if someone had her by the throat and she couldn’t move!

She wanted to escape—

But somehow, in the depth of her subconscious, Jiayi felt that this person with a dangerous aura could give her safety, and strangely, a profound sense of dependency!

This contradictory dilemma made her struggle in her dreams, drenched in sweat, tossing and turning until she was completely exhausted—

Until finally, she was cornered by this figure once more, about to suffocate—

"Ah—" With a scream, Jiayi opened her eyes wide from the dream, only to see, the day was already bright.

The day has dawned?

Jiayi was stunned, and after a while, she heard a commotion downstairs, accompanied by the sound of engines starting.

Wasn’t it her wedding with Ya Chen today?

Wasn’t she supposed to be woken up before dawn, then change into a wedding dress, get ready, and wait for daylight to go to the church?

Why didn’t anyone come to wake her up? 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

She got up, shuffling in her soft slippers to the bedroom door, intending to open it, but found that it was tightly closed. She tried to shake it vigorously and realized it was locked.

A shock ran through her heart, and she had a bad feeling. She hurriedly turned back, pulled open the French windows, and ran out to the balcony—

Outside the villa, several black limousines arranged by the Chu Family for the bridal procession were slowly driving away.

In the middle limousine, the wedding car’s window was open, revealing the profile of Chu Xinyue.

Jiayi rubbed her eyes, thinking she had seen wrong.

Looking carefully again, she hadn’t been mistaken; it was indeed Chu Xinyue.

Adorned in a pristine white wedding dress, today’s Chu Xinyue had shed her usual sickly appearance, looking so delicate and content, her face radiating with warm, blissful happiness.

In another limousine following behind, Chu Yanhan, acting as the bride’s father, was present for today’s wedding, dressed very formally.

It wasn’t until the procession stretched like a snake and left her field of vision that Jiayi finally realized what was happening.

The Chu house was quiet.

Most people had already gone to the church for the wedding.

The groom was Ya Chen, but the bride was clearly not herself, but Chu Xinyue.

What was going on?

In her astonishment, Jiayi ran to the door again and started banging forcefully, "Let me out, let me out! Is there anybody there?"

There was no movement from the other side of the door.

Every word seemed to drop into a deep well, not even causing a ripple!

She knocked until she was utterly exhausted, feeling some soreness and discomfort in her lower abdomen.

The child was still a tiny embryo, without consciousness, much less form, but it seemed to have already merged with her, reminding her that she was not alone in this body.

She zoned out for a while, then sat back on the sofa in the bedroom, as the discomfort in her abdomen ebbed away like a receding tide, slowly fading.

Time ticked away bit by bit.

The sun climbed higher and higher.

It wasn’t until Jiayi glanced at the clock on the bedroom wall that she saw it was almost noon.

Suddenly, outside, urgent footsteps sounded.

The footsteps grew closer, then the bedroom door was creaked open from outside.

Xuan Yu entered, a figure of stern elegance in her velvet dress suit, emanating a commanding presence, her eyes tinged with a hint of coldness, accompanied by several maids who had apparently come back early from the church.

The maids carried luggage bags and began to rummage through the cabinets as soon as they entered, packing Jiayi’s personal clothes and belongings into the luggage bags, quickly packing up.
