What should I do if I lose my memory after transmigrating into a book?

Chapter 166 Beginning

That night was both magical and taboo.

The next morning, when Shen Xi got up, she vaguely felt that her throat was burning and uncomfortable. She let herself sink into the soft silk quilt.

With her eyes closed, she kicked the sleeping man beside her, then touched her throat with her hand.

"water."

The man beside her was still a little groggy from waking up in the morning, but he suddenly became fully awake when he heard the woman speak.

Jiang Ci turned over, reached out and touched her forehead, and visibly breathed a sigh of relief when he felt her body temperature drop.

He smiled and reached out to poke Shen Xi's cheek: "Okay, my princess."

A prick was poked into Shen Xi's face, but she endured it without making a sound. Her face flushed red, she buried herself under the silk quilt, leaving only a small gap. She squinted at the mirror with her back to Jiang Ci.

The man in the mirror has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and is shirtless as he slowly puts on his jeans.

Shen Xi pursed her lips and watched him leave the bedroom through the mirror.

Yesterday was an exceptionally chaotic day.

Both of them lost control of their minds, and the night was incredibly beautiful and wonderful. In their mental breakdown, they seemed to be searching for the ultimate stimulation and pleasure.

Well... I guess I'm doing pretty well.

Shen Xi roughly made this assessment.

"Sweetie, get up and have some water."

Shen Xi instantly got goosebumps. She turned her head in surprise to look at the person who was saying such cheesy things.

Jiang Ci handed the water glass to Shen Xi without changing his expression, a hint of a smile in his dark pupils.

When Shen Xi tried to get up, she felt as if her bones had been run over by a tractor in a cornfield, and she was in so much pain that she couldn't lift her arms.

She hissed softly.

Jiang Ci reached out and considerately placed the soft pillow down, helping Shen Xi to lean against it. He then touched the rim of the cup.

"The water temperature is just right."

A straw was stuck in the cup, and Jiang Ci didn't seem to intend to put the whole cup in Shen Xi's hand.

Shen Xi felt dizzy the moment she woke up. She took two sips through the straw, and her throat finally felt a little better.

There's something I'd like to discuss with you.

Before Shen Xi could swallow and speak, Jiang Ci preemptively spoke.

"What is it?" Shen Xi looked up.

Jiang Ci waited for her to finish drinking the water, then casually put on his white shirt, meticulously buttoning the last button before slowly speaking.

"Oh, it's nothing, I was just wondering if you could take responsibility for me?"

Hmm? In charge?

Who is responsible for whom? Isn't the subject and object of this statement reversed?

"You mean... I have to take responsibility for you, is that right?"

Shen Xi struggled to understand what he meant and managed to translate it for him.

"Hmm? From what you're saying, are you planning to be a shameless scumbag and abandon me? Shen Xi, we grew up together, you can't act like that."

Jiang Ci spoke with righteous indignation, accusing her like a righteous judge, his beautiful eyes slightly curved as he continued:

"If you keep going like this, then I'm going to..."

His drawn-out tone made Shen Xi subconsciously feel that something was dangerous.

The next second, she heard that bastard say:

"I'm going to talk to Ms. Hua about what happened between us. I want to give her a serious explanation of what happened last night, and that the girl she raised seems to be of questionable character, only wanting one-night stands. Of course, I'm extremely unhappy about that."

Shen Xi endured it all, clenching her fists and gritting her teeth: "Stop... you mama's boy, don't rush to complain. Logically speaking, shouldn't you be the one taking responsibility for me?"

Jiang Ci immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll take responsibility for you."

After saying that, he took out a red household registration book from his white shirt and placed it in her palm.

Shen Xi held the household registration booklet as if it were a hot potato; her hand trembled slightly as she held it: "Wait, is that what I meant? You've misinterpreted it—"

Jiang Ci blinked and snorted: "This mama's boy is telling you there's no room for negotiation. It's a deal whether it works out or not."

"I'm telling you, I really will tell on you."

After saying that, he stopped listening to Shen Xi and immediately turned and left, his back view looking utterly disheveled.

It sounds like they're fleeing in panic.

Who is this person?!

Shen Xi glared fiercely at the household registration book in her hand, but in the end she didn't even look at it.

Ugh, that annoying guy!!!

Shen Xi was so angry that she kept pounding the bed, but unknowingly, the gloom in her heart dissipated a lot.

This apartment isn't as big as a villa; it's only about 90 square meters, just enough for two people.

Shen Xi's room layout has always been her favorite style. She lifted the blanket and saw all sorts of red marks on her white skin, including pinch marks, hickeys, bite marks, and so on, covering her entire body.

That damned dog, he slept with her and then bit her.

Shen Xi was furious when she saw the mark.

Forget it.

Why bother arguing with him?

Shen Xi calmed herself down. Beside her pillow lay a misty blue dress, exquisitely made.

She walked barefoot to the mirror. The woman in the mirror had bloodshot eyes, mixed with a few tears, and her porcelain-white neck was covered with bite marks. The person in the mirror was like a fairy or an ethereal being, creating a mesmerizing and enchanting visual impact at first glance.

Is this bastard trying to gnaw on her neck like a spicy duck neck?

How can she go out like this? Giving her a dress to wear, is that intentional?!

Shen Xi walked very quietly into the living room. Jiang Ci stood on the balcony, looking at the daffodils with indifferent and ruthless eyes. He didn't notice her. His hands were in his pockets, his face was cold and stern, his jawline was sharp, and he exuded a sense of aloofness and coldness.

Shen Xi stood quietly in the living room, looking towards the balcony.

It was at this moment that Shen Xi realized Jiang Ci was a noble young master from a prestigious family.

The quartz clock ticked very softly; it was unclear whether it had startled Jiang Ci.

Jiang Ci suddenly turned his head and looked coldly at the living room. He was stunned for two seconds when he saw Shen Xi, but his face darkened instantly when he looked down.

He quickly left the balcony, walked to Shen Xi's side, picked her up, and placed her on the sofa.

"The tiles are cold. No one has been arranged to stay here beforehand. We'll arrange for someone to lay down a carpet tomorrow. Please bear with it for now and don't go barefoot, it's bad for your health."

Shen Xi has a habit of not wearing shoes. When she was little, it was because the shoes didn't fit properly, either too big or too small. But the headmistress of the kindergarten works very hard raising children, and she didn't want to say anything for fear of adding to her mother-in-law's burden.

So, when she was little, the kindergarten headmistress liked to chase her with a broom to scare her into wearing shoes, but she didn't like wearing them.

This habit is practically ingrained in her.

Later, every inch of Shen Xi's home was carpeted.

Shen Xi could never break this habit.

"Oh, I know."

Shen Xi sat on the sofa, watching with a complicated expression as Jiang Ci took out a pair of new slippers from the shoe cabinet and knelt down in front of her to put them on.

She kicked her feet a little awkwardly, "Get up, I can dress myself."

Jiang Ci remained completely unaffected, gently putting on her shoes for her. However, during the process, he coldly pinched her foot, and although he had no expression, Shen Xi still sensed a hint of eroticism.

"Are you crazy? Just wear shoes, what kind of fetish is it to massage feet?"

Shen Xi's face turned bright red, but she was so angry that she laughed.

That year, Jiang Ci was 1.83 meters tall, and when he stood up, he was more than a head taller than Shen Xi.

He straightened up, looked down at her, and suddenly smiled, his eyes revealing a hint of charm.

He suddenly remembered the scene of him pleading with her in a low voice last night, a memory he would cherish for the rest of his life.

Jiang Ci helplessly pinched her earlobe and said softly, "Shen Xi, I'm just an ordinary person too."

Therefore, I'm afraid that my low-class behavior might offend you, but that doesn't mean I don't want to.

This is the person I fell in love with during my early childhood.

Actually, Shen Xi didn't remember much about what happened last night, except for some vague memories of Jiang Ci lying on top of her with his shirt off.

Jiang Ci's movements were clumsy, and she was also ignorant and clueless.

Both of them were covered in sweat, but neither of them told them to stop.

Shen Xi ignored Jiang Ci's words and sat down at the table to eat. She hadn't felt full in a long time.

She used to be someone who loved to eat the most.

Seeing that Shen Xi was not responding, Jiang Ci lowered his eyelashes so that his expression could not be seen.

If she had been born in ancient times, she would have been the most deserter of all.

Jiang Ci glanced at her irritably, then sat opposite her and watched her eat with relish.

Not long after,

Jiang Ci thought, she still can't live without me. Only the food I cook can make her eat more. The food at school is all garbage.

He's spoiled his lively girl so much that she's become listless.

Shen Xi ate with her head down, while Jiang Ci remained silent.

He didn't want to bother her, so he ate as little as he could.

When we finished eating,

Seeing Jiang Ci sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper, Shen Xi knew that a conversation was inevitable.

She wanted to refuse.

But refusal is ineffective, so in the end, it comes down to communication between adults.

The living room was dimly lit, and the clean tiles were covered in grime. Shen Xi sat on Jiang Ci's lap and bit his shoulder hard.

Damn it, give it back to him.

After a battle, Shen Xi lay panting on the sofa, her seaweed-like hair spread out behind her head. She looked like an exhausted sea siren trying to come ashore to rest.

Jiang Ci, his upper body covered in scratches, put his arm around her waist, stroked her soft, long hair, and said gently, "Shall we try again? We weren't satisfied just now."

Is this something a human being could say?

This guy must have just been released from starvation jail!

Shen Xi refused to agree no matter what, and the conversation ended.

Last night was like Pandora's box being opened; from now on, the concept of boundaries will never return to Jiang Ci.

"You are not allowed to look at the paintings I painted. Put the cloth covering them up at Yujing Villa. You can go and look at them when you feel it's okay."

Shen Xi closed her eyes, letting Jiang Ci rub against her.

It took him a long time to finally stammer out an "okay".

……

Days passed by until Shenxi graduated.

On graduation day, Jiang Ci stood at the entrance of the art department, wearing a white dress and holding a bouquet of confetti.

People passing by looked at him curiously and whispered among themselves.

"This handsome guy has such a great presence, and his taste in clothes is amazing."

"Hey, look like he has a girlfriend, let's go!"

People in twos and threes stared at them, but no one went up to strike up a conversation.

Shen Xi only noticed him after she finished taking graduation photos and walked out of the auditorium.

What brings you here today?

Shen Xi was somewhat surprised. He was in England with Grandma Jiang yesterday, and he was able to fly back today.

"I probably don't want to miss this scene either."

Jiang Ci smiled calmly, placed the flowers in her arms, bent down and kissed her.

Under the sycamore tree, he sighed, "People are more beautiful than flowers."

Jiang Ci was in high spirits that day, and even stopped a classmate to ask him to take a photo of him and Shen Xi together.

—Click

This is the only photo of Jiang Ci and Shen Xi together in the years that followed.

At the graduation celebration banquet that day, Jiang Ci took the initiative to invite Shen Xi to eat hot pot.

She doesn't like French or Japanese food.

The most important thing about this kind of holiday is to be happy.

When Jiang Ci returned home, his face was still as white as jade, showing no sign of drunkenness, if Shen Xi really didn't smell any alcohol.

Shen Xi didn't drink a drop of alcohol. She hadn't been feeling well lately and hadn't been sleeping well, so drinking wasn't suitable for her.

Even when drunk, Jiang Ci's energy levels remained high, except that she was a little more... prone to acting spoiled.

He clung to Shen Xi, kissing her repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice.

He would mutter to himself from time to time, "This is mine, and it will be mine in the future, and I am yours too," and so on.

Shen Xi escorted him back to his room. He obediently covered himself with the blanket, folded his hands over his stomach, and looked at Shen Xi with his watery eyes: "I'm being good. I'm going to sleep now."

Shen Xi found him rather cute and smiled, "Okay, obedient little princess, go to sleep."

When she returned to her own bed, she couldn't fall asleep.

She stared at the ceiling in the darkness, but couldn't see anything.

[Heroine, everything is about to return to the original plot! We're finally getting back on track!]

It suddenly popped up again to remind her.

Oh no, it's forcing her to make a choice.

Shen Xi's voice was cold, with a chilling edge: "It's you who's back on track, not me. Don't try to use the script to blackmail me."

The plot is frustrating: "But ultimately, the female lead still has to make a decision."

Shen Xi chuckled, a half-smile playing on her lips, and said, "Is that so?"

The plot is quite simple: "Yes!"

Let's wait and see.

……

When the plot overlaps, that's when Shen Xi has to make a choice.

These are the words left over from the original storyline.

That day, Jiang Ci had been frequently traveling abroad on business, reportedly working on a hedge fund.

He achieved great success abroad.

Shen Xi wasn't idle either; she drew the comics she loved and pursued her favorite profession.

She dislikes being restricted, so she doesn't consider many jobs. Instead, she opened her own studio to publish her own comics, which have received a good market response.

One autumn rain brings one chill.

The autumn air was particularly cold after the rain, and Shen Xi stayed in her studio painting.

Recently, Shen Xi has become fascinated with oil painting and is trying to explore new ways of painting.

She was slowly drawing a rotten apple, but she was not satisfied with how she drew it. Suddenly, she was filled with anger and her temper flared up. She tore up the drawing and threw the paint aside.

A drop of paint splashed onto her face, jolting her awake as she looked at the mess.

After a moment of silence, a sudden sound came from Shen Xi.

"Shen Xi".

Jiang Ci returned at some point. He stood quietly outside the studio, a black suit jacket draped over his arm, his hair neatly combed, exuding an air of sophistication.

He looked at everything inside the door, very calmly.

Jiang Ci went in and covered Shen Xi with his suit jacket. Seeing her trembling hands, he took out a wet wipe from the drawer and gently wiped her hands clean.

He moved the bench to a clean spot by the door, picked up the absent-minded Shen Xi, and placed her on the bench. He said softly, "Rest for a bit. I have some good news to tell you later."

Shen Xi finally came to her senses. She looked at Jiang Ci as he neatly tidied up the mess on the ground and couldn't help but feel apologetic.

"I'm sorry, I don't know why I couldn't control my emotions."

Jiang Ci calmly put away the broken paintbrush, turned his head and said casually, "This is your way of venting your emotions. I think it's good that you can express them. Your arrogant attitude is so endearing. I like it very much."

Shen Xi heard that he couldn't stop talking about her, so she just gave a perfunctory "hmm".

Shen Xi thought her hormonal imbalance was due to her period approaching.

Suddenly, she felt as if struck by lightning, and she stretched out her hand to calculate again and again.

It seems like she hasn't had her period in ages!
