You Damn

“Why won’t you let me see Ye Shuang?!” Zhao Mengyao jammed her foot into the crack of the door. At this moment, she was truly desperate. Seeing herself blocked, she angrily demanded Chen Qin.

Zhao Mengyao had come to realize that only Ye Shuang could save her.

If only she could go back…

Go back to the past.

If she could turn back time, everything would still be possible. After all, it was just a chance to start over, wasn’t it?

“Let me in! You have no right to stop me!”

“I…” Chen Qin’s mouth moved, then she twisted her lips and rolled her eyes, finally saying,

“None of your damn business!”

“Open the door!” Zhao Mengyao shouted loudly, pounding on the door with all her might. The noise was loud enough to probably attract the neighbors.

“No!” Chen Qin really wanted to shove her hard enough to crush her foot, but if Zhao Mengyao fell to the ground screaming, it would only make things worse.

Perhaps the commotion caught Ye Shuang’s attention upstairs, because he came down the stairs quickly and walked over.

“What’s going on? What happened?”

Seeing Ye Shuang woken by their shouting, Chen Qin felt a bit helpless, but since he was already up, she opened the door.

“Ye Shuang!” Zhao Mengyao burst in, tears streaming down her face, and immediately dropped to her knees in front of him.

“Ye Shuang… boohoo… Ye Shuang.”

“I was wrong…”

“Ye Shuang… please save me…”

The next second, a pair of hands reached out and pulled her up.

Zhao Mengyao froze for a moment, then noticed Ye Shuang looking at her with a gentle expression, his voice full of concern.

“Are you alright?”

“…” Zhao Mengyao had imagined how Ye Shuang would react when she found him, but she never expected him to be so calm.

Sure enough, he still cares about me!

“Ye Shuang, I still love you. I was blinded before by foolishness…”

“We’ve loved each other for so many years. Can we go back? Please?”

“I’ll listen to you from now on. I’ll do anything for you.”

Zhao Mengyao thought these words would move Ye Shuang, but instead, a puzzled look slowly appeared on his face, as if he had heard something strange and incomprehensible.

“Sorry…” Ye Shuang seemed to recognize the tearful woman before him as Zhao Mengyao, but he had no memory of her at all. She was like a complete stranger.

It was as if someone suddenly appeared out of nowhere, telling you she was your ex-girlfriend.

“Sigh, I don’t know you. My girlfriend has always been Chen Qin,” Ye Shuang explained.

Zhao Mengyao stood there stunned, almost thinking she had misheard.

“Get out,” Chen Qin said coldly from the side. “Ye Shuang has lost his memory. How long are you going to keep pestering him?”

“Wasn’t it your choice? Idol,” Zhao Mengyao took a step back, as if hearing something ridiculous. “Is this really necessary? Pretending to have amnesia?”

“Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? Ye Shuang, don’t pretend anymore! Even if you can’t remember what happened between us, you don’t have to use such a pathetic excuse.”

“Am I really that easy to fool?!”

She screamed almost heart-wrenchingly.

“You’ve all been fooled by Tang Hao so badly, and yet you’re still so easy to trick? Your brain’s just not working right, is it?” Chen Qin rolled her eyes.

“You—!”

Zhao Mengyao immediately turned to Ye Shuang.

“Back in college, you brought me breakfast every single day. Have you forgotten all that?!”

“You played the guitar for me!”

“You set off fireworks for me!”

“You kept telling me by the Love Lake how much you loved me! Have you really forgotten all that?!”

“You were so good to me!”

“Miss Zhao Mengyao, please calm down. Let’s talk this through slowly,” Ye Shuang said, shielding Chen Qin behind him. His tone was gentle, almost like he was comforting someone with a mental illness, trying to soothe Zhao Mengyao.

Zhao Mengyao noticed how he was treating her: “…”

That position, once held—

Clearly…

Why had it come to this?

“You… really don’t remember?” Zhao Mengyao stared at Ye Shuang intently, as if trying to read something from his face.

But she was quickly disappointed. Ye Shuang’s eyes truly looked at her like she was a stranger.

And not just any stranger—like a sick, deranged one.

“I…” Ye Shuang’s gaze was confused, but he still asked sincerely, “If you say I was so good to you…”

“Then why did you leave me?”

That question left Zhao Mengyao speechless.

Right.

Why had she left Ye Shuang? He was so outstanding. She had only been unwilling to accept that she hadn’t gotten Tang Hao back then.

If we’re talking ability, Tang Hao was just following Ye Shuang’s lead.

As for looks, once the filters were off, Ye Shuang’s appearance was on a whole different level compared to Tang Hao.

Regarding family background, Ye Shuang’s family owned a business and he was the only son, whereas Tang Hao had two older brothers.

An endless wave of regret flooded her heart.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” Zhao Mengyao screamed in a breakdown.

“Damn it.” Chen Qin covered her ears, clearly unable to stand this crazy woman. She pulled out her phone, ready to call the police to report a trespasser.

But the next moment, she froze. Zhao Mengyao had pulled out a gleaming fruit knife.

“Then let’s die together!” Zhao Mengyao shouted maniacally, raising the knife and lunging at Ye Shuang!

“Ah, Ye!”

Chen Qin’s mind went blank, but her body acted on instinct, reaching out to block the knife!

“…”

*Shhhk—*

The fruit knife stabbed solidly into Chen Qin.

“Ugh.”

“Chen Qin?!” Ye Shuang rushed forward, catching Chen Qin in his arms. His eyes widened in disbelief as he shouted angrily at Zhao Mengyao,

“You fucking—!”

At that moment, Zhao Mengyao snapped back to reality. She took a step back, stammering, “I—I didn’t mean to! She threw herself onto the knife! It’s not my fault!”

Then she turned and scrambled away.

Ye Shuang gritted his teeth but didn’t chase after her. He couldn’t just leave Chen Qin here.

“Ye… I’m okay,” Chen Qin’s face instantly went pale.

“Don’t move, just lie still.” Ye Shuang began dialing emergency services while quickly checking the wound to stop the bleeding. “Don’t pull the knife out yet, I’ll figure out a way to control the bleeding.”

“Ye…”

“Don’t speak yet. Hang on, stay conscious.” Ye Shuang said firmly.

“I- I’m fine, Ye Shuang.” Chen Qin’s face was drenched in cold sweat, but she still managed a smile.

“I’m not the type to fall down so easily,” she said with determination.

Ye Shuang grasped her hand tightly. “Why were you so foolish? Why did you take the knife for me?”

Chen Qin squinted her eyes playfully. “Heh… my body just reacted first.”

“Alright, alright, enough talking,” Ye Shuang’s voice was hoarse. “It’s going to be okay. The ambulance is on its way.”
