Chapter 123 I Sleep on the Floor
Fearful that something had happened to Wang Ye.
"I'm here."
Just as Su Wanqing was about to go downstairs to check, Wang Ye's deep voice rose, making Su Wanqing, who was halfway out of bed, lie back down again and she asked Wang Ye, "Wang Ye, what just happened to you?"
"Do you still remember why I married you?" Wang Ye asked.
Su Wanqing answered, "You wanted to investigate the truth behind the disappearance of the Wang family, so you needed to marry me to retrieve your blurry memories from childhood."
As Su Wanqing said this, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart.
She didn't know why, but Su Wanqing hoped that Wang Ye's reasons for marrying her could be more simple.
And not like this.
After the misunderstanding about Wang Ye was cleared up, Su Wanqing recalled everything Wang Ye had done from the beginning till now, for her grandfather, for her, and her fondness for Wang Ye had gradually deepened.
It had even reached the point of liking him.
However, Su Wanqing hadn't realized it yet and thought that she felt guilty towards Wang Ye now just because she had misunderstood him at the beginning.
Beyond that, she supposed she shouldn't have any other feelings for Wang Ye.
"Just now, I remembered something," Wang Ye said seriously.
"What is it?"
Su Wanqing also became curious.
Whenever she saw Wang Ye, she felt a sense of familiarity.
Thus, she knew that Wang Ye's reasons for marrying her were indeed aimed at regaining his memories, and not merely an excuse.
At this moment, Su Wanqing also wanted to know what had happened between her and Wang Ye when they were children.
Wang Ye shared the memories that had just surfaced in his mind with Su Wanqing.
As Su Wanqing listened, memories regarding this matter also emerged in her mind. Although not very clear, they were enough to verify that the recollections Wang Ye spoke of were true.
And he hadn't lied to her.
Su Wanqing, stunned, looked at Wang Ye, her cheeks suddenly flushing with a reddish hue.
She hadn't expected that she and Wang Ye had such an encounter in their childhood.
Therefore, the nature of her relationship with Wang Ye was more like that of childhood sweethearts.
"Do you know where this place I'm talking about is?" Wang Ye asked, staring intently at Su Wanqing without blinking.
This question was very important.
Perhaps that place held information about the Wang family.
The likelihood was great!
"I know, that place is in Yuncheng West County, where our old home is located," she said.
"Our Su family began developing from Xi County initially."
"However..."
Su Wanqing paused, glanced at Wang Ye, and said, "Xi County is where the Su family used to be, but as far as I know, the Wang family wasn't in Xi County before, right?"
"Let's go check it out anyway."
Wang Ye took a deep breath, planning to record his statement the next day and then head to Xi County.
"By the way,"
Wang Ye described the outline of the figure who had entered the door in his memory and asked Su Wanqing, "Does this silhouette resemble your father?"
"Yes."
Su Wanqing nodded.
Yet, from the expression on Su Wanqing's face, it was evident that there was a touch of loss when she said these words.
After all, Su Wanqing's parents had disappeared when she was very young.
Thinking of this, Wang Ye suddenly remembered something.
Fang Feifei's parents had also disappeared when she was very young.
Their whereabouts were unknown.
So had Su Wanqing's.
Could it be... is there a connection between these events?
Wang Ye felt the need to unravel the secret of the Wang family's disappearance.
In the days to come, many things would await his investigation.
Where were Fang Fei fei parents?
Where are Su Wanqing's parents?
And among all things, the most important was the whereabouts of Su Wanqing's parents.
After all, from his recent memories, the relationship between Su Wanqing's parents and his own was very good.
If he could find Su Wanqing's parents, they could also provide him with a lot of information.
With this thought,
Wang Ye patted Su Wanqing on the shoulder and said to her, "Don't worry, I will definitely find your parents."
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Su Wanqing looked at Wang Ye with her beautiful eyes, filled with intense surprise.
Although Su Wanqing had never mentioned it, she too wanted to find her parents.
In the past, she had tried to look for them but never found any clues.
"Really," Wang Ye said, his words carrying a convincing power.
It seemed as if after Wang Ye spoke these words, he would indeed do just that.
"Mm."
Su Wanqing nodded, her heart softened by Wang Ye a little.
Looking at the bedding Wang Ye had laid out on the floor,
her heart wavered for a moment.
At night, a girl's heart is the softest.
It is also the most emotional time.
Moreover, Su Wanqing and Wang Ye were married, already bearing the name of husband and wife.
The guilt of having misunderstood Wang Ye before,
and the fact that she and Wang Ye had been childhood sweethearts since they were little.
All this news
made Su Wanqing's heart waver.
She turned to Wang Ye and said, "Why don't you sleep off the ground tonight?"
"Ah?"
Wang Ye was slightly startled upon hearing Su Wanqing's words.
He glanced at Su Wanqing and asked her, "If not on the ground, where should I sleep?"
Wang Ye had not expected that what Su Wanqing wanted was to let him sleep on the bed.
When Su Wanqing heard Wang Ye ask this, a blush instantly crept onto her face.
Asking Wang Ye to sleep on the bed was something she was momentarily too bashful to voice.
But finally,
Su Wanqing spoke up,
"You can sleep on the bed, we can sleep under separate blankets."
"Still, no,"
Wang Ye shook his head after hearing Su Wanqing's words.
"We don't have much affection for each other yet, sleeping together in the same bed is somewhat inappropriate."
"I'll just sleep on the floor."
As he said this,
Wang Ye returned to the spot where he had laid out his bedding.
And he lay down.
Listening to Wang Ye's words and seeing his actions, Su Wanqing felt even more moved.
She was not the kind of girl to be bewildered by love.
She knew many things.
If it were another guy who heard what she had just said, he might have gone ahead with it.
And even after sharing the same bed, albeit under two different blankets, he might have tried to take advantage of the situation.
But Wang Ye didn't do that.
Instead, he just laid down on the floor.
This made Su Wanqing feel an additional sense of fondness for Wang Ye in her heart.
At the same time, she also felt some relief.
