War of Roses: The Proud Tycoon，Please Surrender!-Chapter 379: I Remember You

It’s already dusk.

The orange hue of the setting sun cast a gentle glow, falling into the white hospital room, adding a touch of warm ambiance.

Gu Yan slowly opened her eyes in the fading light of dusk, her gaze still somewhat bewildered.

She stared blankly at the ceiling for quite a while, seemingly digesting something, her expression momentarily in a daze.

She gradually turned her head towards the window, her gaze slowly fixing there.

There stood a person.

The person’s silhouette was tall and straight, with broad shoulders, standing against the light of the setting sun, enveloped in a faint glow, seeming both hazy and unreal.

Something emerged in her mind, but it was vague and unclear, just like the person before her, backlit, hiding their features.

Yet, there was a deep familiarity in her heart, a strong sense of familiarity.

Gu Yan thought, she must know him.

Gu Yan closed her eyes, trying hard to catch the fragment in her mind, the fragment in which that man appeared.

Her head started to throb faintly again, and Gu Yan suddenly opened her eyes, taking a few quick breaths, her mental image dispelled.

The man by the window was quite sensitive; hearing Gu Yan’s slightly heavy breathing, he immediately turned around.

Gu Yan was still looking at him. As he turned, his face was imprinted in her eyes.

His deep, chiseled features, the profound eyes, firmly pressed thin lips, all familiar yet hazy in her memory, but the feeling was significantly present on this face.

The man strode toward her; the room wasn’t big, and with his large strides, he was before her in just a few steps.

Likewise, his face became clearer in her eyes.

Her eyes widened, fixated on his face, some memory in her mind gradually restoring, gradually, becoming clear.

"You’re still here, I don’t want to stay outside too long."

"I love hearing you say things like that."

"Alright, I won’t talk to you anymore, I’m leaving for now."

"Make sure to come back, Yanyan, I’ll wait for you."

"Wait for me."

At that time, she kissed him deeply on the lips and said, "Wait for me."

But later...

That sudden car accident, her panic-stricken expression, the piercing honks in her ears, the various braking sounds, and the screams of passersby...

These sounds continually intertwined and echoed in her mind, almost unbearable for her.

Tang Yuxiu saw her go from dazing to frowning, showing signs of discomfort, and he placed his hand on her forehead, softly and worriedly asking, "Yanyan, what’s wrong? Is something making you uncomfortable?"

Gu Yan looked at him, those words, that scene, gradually becoming clear, clear to the point that she felt as though she was regaining her memory.

"Tang, Yu, Xiu." She suddenly called out his name very seriously, word by word.

Tang Yuxiu was suddenly startled; in her eyes at that moment, he saw the feeling he was familiar with and missed!

Just like how Gu Yan used to look at him.

There was complexity, withdrawal, confusion, yet there was always affection.

Though faint, Tang Yuxiu saw it, felt it.

He couldn’t help but become happy, "Yanyan?"

Gu Yan pursed her lips, suddenly closed her eyes again, seeming quite uncomfortable.

Tang Yuxiu became worried again, "Yanyan, are you still feeling bad? I’ll call Xiang Linghao to check on you."

Tang Yuxiu immediately got up and pressed the bedside button several times.

Gu Yan took several deep breaths, opened her eyes, her gaze much clearer, and she spoke softly, her voice sounding a bit weak.

"I’m okay, nothing major, you don’t have to worry and trouble someone to come over."

"It’s fine, Ah Hao said to call him over for a check-up when you wake up."

"Okay." Gu Yan said nothing more, still looking at his face, "No wonder I always felt you were familiar, felt I’ve seen you before. At first, I thought it was because you’re very much like Little Bao, but I think there can’t be such coincidences in this world, so I suspected that we knew each other before."

Tang Yuxiu pursed his lips and said, "You already know, don’t you? We knew each other before."

During Gu Yan’s coma, Wang Qi and others had visited, and Wang Qi had told Tang Yuxiu that Gu Yan had heard the gossip from the company staff about the cooperation with the Tang Family, learning some past affairs and knowing that they knew each other before.

Gu Yan smiled faintly, "Yes, I found out, but I remembered you."

"What?" Tang Yuxiu was startled, seemingly unable to believe what he heard, "Yanyan, you..."

Gu Yan said, "I’ve remembered a little of the past, but only a little. I remembered how I got into the car accident and some things before the accident."

Before the accident, she had been with Tang Yuxiu; it was right after leaving him that a severe rear-end incident happened under the viaduct, causing a chain accident.

"I only remember that little bit. I said I’d wait for you; I don’t recall why I wanted you to wait, but I know, I didn’t do it. I’m sorry for forgetting you for so long."

From just that little bit of memory, she was already roughly clear about how their relationship was back then.

She remembered not only the memory but also the feeling and mindset when she said those words back then.

She didn’t know what she was going to do, then she decided to stay by his side at all costs, unwilling to be apart even if there would be no result in this life.

Tang Yuxiu held her hand, gently placing it against his lips, "It’s alright, Yanyan, as long as you remember me, even just a little, I’m happy."

Upon knowing Gu Yan was still alive, at the moment he saw her unfamiliar gaze, at the realization that she remembered nothing and had forgotten everything about him, it wasn’t without resentment, it wasn’t without unwillingness.

She had told him to wait for her, to wait for her return from visiting long-lost relatives, to wait for her determinedly staying by his side, never to be apart again. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Yet he waited, even when he knew she was dead, he still insisted on waiting.

But then she was alive and well, vibrant, yet she had forgotten him so completely, not recognizing him upon meeting...

At that time, his heart was like being cut by a knife.

Luckily, he told himself to calm down, not to say anything, not to reveal anything, not to provoke her.

He thought, as long as she was still alive, he could bear all the injustice, even thank God for not really making him utterly despair.

In the end, she came back... even if her memory was blank, he was willing to accept, willing to move her again with a new beginning.
