Chapter 712 Saved Someone
In a situation like this, Tang Hebe was supposed to be vigilant about this 'stranger' who had just come to her room. But the thing was, she couldn't bring herself to put up her guard against him. The way he was looking at her clearly showed he held no malice or evil intentions. He even brought her a warm meal to save her from the bland and boring hospital food.
Looking at the bowl of hot porridge he poured out for her, she was at a loss.
"Thank you!" she said to him.
It was sad but the reality was that from the moment she opened her eyes, he was the first person who offered her a genuine smile. One that was not only heartfelt but also warm. How could she not let her guard down?
She wasn't blind. She might not be the smartest pea in the pot, but she was still able to see the complicated emotions on Shui Xian's face when he interacted with her. And look, he didn't come back to see her after that either.
The Shui Xian in her memory wouldn't even move from her side if she only had a little fever. And this time, she was seriously injured but he wasn't by her side. He looked at her like they were strangers. It really hurt her heart but even more so, she was confused.

"You're my senior," he told her. "We graduated from the same university." Since Shui Xian and Tang Hebe studied in the same university and while Shui Xian was Hyson's senior, so was Tang Hebe. It was not like he was just lying right now.
"Oh..." responded Tang Hebe lightly. "Then what are you doing here?"
"I came to see you," replied Hyson. "Because I was always curious how someone with amne..." He paused and didn't finish his word. Well, the doctor just told him that Tang Hebe didn't know she had amnesia. He almost slipped up there.
Much to his surprise, she smiled softly at him, "Someone who has amnesia?"
Hyson's eyes widened slightly and looked at her. "You... You know?"
Tang Hebe pressed her lips together, "I'm not blind." As he furrowed his brows, she pointed towards the wall where he found the digital wall hanging. Not only the time was displayed on it but also the day and date.
Hyson had a look of realization and facepalmed himself.
She was silent for a while before she added, "I thought I was mistaken but then I turned on the tv and it turned out, over five years are really gone from my memory. There are only two possibilities I can think of, one; I've been in a coma for the past five or six years, and two; I have lost my memory of those years." She looked up at Hyson as she told him, "And I think it's my memory. Otherwise, I wouldn't feel so lost. I suddenly feel the world changed all of a sudden."
Hyson pursed his lips. Was it okay that he actually felt bad for her? Well, he could only blame his beautiful heart. A beautiful person like him really has a beautiful heart. Yes, he was praising himself. And he didn't mind doing so at all.
Jokes apart, he was seriously feeling bad for her. He couldn't even imagine how she was feeling right now. Overnight, her world turned upside down. What was she feeling right now? The past five or six years of her life suddenly vanished from her mind.
"I really don't know you?" asked Tang Hebe.
Hyson shook his head, "No. This is our first meeting." He paused for a moment and added, "You saved the life of someone very dear to me. I feel like it's my responsibility to check up on you and see how you're doing. It's just a bizarre coincidence that you turned out to be my senior." He smiled at her gently as he went on, "Our whole family is indebted to you right now."
Tang Hebe was surprised to hear that and asked, "I saved someone's life?"

I can't tell you just how much we feel thankful to you for what you did. You didn't just save one person, you saved everyone related to her as well." He wasn't just speaking nonsense. He was being very honest.
He knew very well what kind of hell they all would be in if anything happened to Raelle. Currently, they were all blaming themselves just because they couldn't protect Raelle's child. What could have happened if she was the one who was seriously hurt? At least, he didn't think he'd ever be able to smile ever again if she wasn't around anymore.
He could never deny the fact that Tang Hebe saved Raelle's life. He was sincerely feeling indebted to her. No matter how playful he was around Shui Xian and Raelle earlier, he obviously was very serious right now.
Even Tang Hebe who didn't even know whom she saved felt surprised to see him like this. He looked like she saved his life instead of someone else's. It made her wonder just what was the relationship between this person and the one she saved.
"Who did I save?" asked Tang Hebe curiously. She didn't think she was a selfless person. Yes, she didn't think she was evil, heartless, or vicious as well. But she wasn't all that kind either.
So, she wondered what kind of a person she saved? Forgetting about her own safety, she actually saved someone else? Even she couldn't believe it for a moment.
"I'll introduce you to her," answered Hyson. "You'll really like her." When he said that, he had a sparkling light in his eyes as if the whole starry night was hiding in his eyes.
"Since such a handsome person is saying, I'll take your words for it," said Tang Hebe.
