All Jing Xi could remember was being saved by Jin Hongsheng, and that he had given her a second life.
She had completely forgotten who she used to be.
Now, she could vaguely remember bits and pieces of her former life.
The only thing that could prove her identity, the ring, was gone too. Since the ring was on her ring finger, it meant that she was married.
She was curious as to who gave her the ring.
She needed answers.
And the only way to find one was to see who gave her the ring.
But her ring was lost.
The man on the couch kept on crying and mumbling, perhaps because he had been keeping everything to himself for too long. They were words that he would not say if he was sober.
Jing Xi felt pity for the king. She knew that if the late queen were still alive, she would not blame him.
The late queen was lucky to have someone to love her like he did.
“Come on, let’s get you to the room,” Jing Xi said, worried that Huo Yunshen might catch a cold.
Since the man could not reply, Jing Xi decided to pull him up and bring him back to the bedroom.
She tried to put him down on the bed, but because the man was too heavy for her to carry, she fell onto the bed with him.
She struggled up and covered him with a sheet. Just as she was about to leave, the man grabbed her wrist.
“… Xi… Don’t go…,” Huo Yunshen mumbled.
Jing Xi tried to pull her hand back, but Huo Yunshen’s grip was too firm.
Without any other choice, Jing Xi sat down beside the bed to accompany him.
Huo Yunshen woke up the next morning with a headache. He tried to move but felt as if something was on top of him.
He raised his head to see Jing Xi resting her head on his body.
Huo Yunshen immediately woke up completely. He quickly grabbed his sheet and covered the woman up.
Her body was cold, she was freezing. Huo Yunshen hugged her to warm her up.
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead while apologizing softly for drinking too much.
Jing Xi slept until she woke up naturally. The first thing she saw was the man’s perfect face, and it shocked her.
She couldn’t remember what had happened.
All she could remember was that she had rested her head by the bed and fell asleep.
She quickly got up and sneaked out of the bed before the man could wake up.
But as soon as she moved, the man opened his eyes and stared at her.
“I… I’m so sorry! I have no idea why I’m sleeping here…
