Chapter 214: Sorry
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ding Rong stared at the man who was a few steps away, her teeth clenched tightly together. Her eyes, which were already moist from crying, were now shockingly bright.
Unlike Xi Cheng, who had lost his mory for more than ten years, Ding Rong had never forgotten this man. Even after such a long ti, his face was still deeply imprinted in Ding Rong’s mind and had not been forgotten for a mont.
When she first lost contact with him, Ding Rong was still pregnant. She would take care of her pregnancy while worrying about her livelihood. Every ti she broke down, she would curse this man who had disappeared countless tis.
As ti passed, the resentnt turned to worry. Later on, after getting used to being a single mother, those worries gradually faded away.
Just as what she had told Huo Tian, the current Ding Rong had already turned waiting and yearning into a habit. She no longer had the obsession to et this man again.
However, he appeared again.
He was also no longer young either and even had a few strands of white hair by his temples. Although he was still charismatic, no one could ignore the vicissitudes of life he exuded.
The two of them looked at each other for a long while. Xi Cheng was the first to make a move. However, he seed to have forgotten that he was wearing a robotic exoskeleton and needed careful control to walk steadily. He took a hurried step and then, as expected, stumbled a few steps. Huo Tian, who was beside him, quickly reached out to support his arm to prevent Xi Cheng from falling.
Ding Rong subconsciously took a step forward, then paused. She looked at Xi Cheng’s leg with a complicated expression and asked with difficulty, “What’s wrong with your leg?”
Xi Cheng was like a young boy, not knowing where to place his hands. He patted his thigh helplessly, and the outline of an exoskeleton could be vaguely seen on the fabric of his flat pants.
He did not want to play the pity act to gain Ding Rong’s sympathy and deliberately said in a nonchalant tone, “They’ve been disabled for several years and I’m already undergoing rehabilitation. Even without the exoskeleton equipnt Tiantian made, I’ll still have a chance to walk again in the future.”
Ding Rong looked at Xi Cheng, who was trying hard to appear nonchalant, and the mories of her youth ca back to life. She suddenly said, “You’re still the sa as before…”
In the past, Xi Cheng was a neutral person. When he interacted with people from all walks of life, it was inevitable that he would get into so headstrong and forceful people. Even though he was quite capable, he would occasionally return ho with injuries. In order not to let Ding Rong worry, he would always casually say that his injuries were not serious at all.
However, Xi Cheng didn’t have many mories of their past in his mind. His expression was filled with guilt as he said, “I’m sorry, Rongrong…”
Ding Rong looked at Xi Cheng with a complicated expression. “It’s been so many years. Since you couldn’t even bear to bring back a piece of news, why did you suddenly appear?”
Xi Cheng looked even guiltier. “I’m sorry, I was injured and lost my mories from the past. I forgot…”
He suddenly could not say the next words. He had not forgotten who he was, nor had he forgotten his other unimportant life experiences, but he had forgotten his wife and child. This reason made Xi Cheng feel unbearable.
“You forgot about , forgot about the ti we spent together, and also forgot about the child that was about to be born, right?” Ding Rong said those words on Xi Cheng’s behalf. She shook her head, her eyes gradually gaining a hint of fury.
Xi Cheng was silent for a mont, then he nodded and said, “Yes, I forgot all my mories after I got together with you. Later on, I got injured a second ti and I rember that I have a wife and was also about to have a child. However, I couldn’t recall any other information. That’s why, after so many years, I’ve never been able to find you guys…”
Ding Rong shook her head and smiled sadly.. “You don’t have to say anymore, don’t say anymore.”
