Chapter 241 (To be continued)
Perhaps the memories are not lost, but simply hidden away.
Si Yuan could also sense that she might remember soon.
She had to remember, because she had amnesia, and Jiang Wang was very sad.
In the evening, Si Yuan played with Si Xingzhou for a while when she suddenly heard the sound of pots and pans coming from downstairs. She paused for a moment, then got up and followed the sound downstairs.
Sure enough, Jiang Wang was found in the kitchen.
Jiang Wang was wearing an apron, standing in front of the kitchen counter preparing a fish. His sleeves were rolled up, revealing faint blue veins on his arms. His movements were practiced and his knife skills were sharp, making him seem nothing like the pampered young master he usually was. Sunlight streamed in through the kitchen window, falling on his profile. Two buttons on his shirt were undone, revealing his collarbone.
Si Yuan unconsciously walked in, sat down by the kitchen island, and looked at him with her chin in her hand.
Jiang Wang noticed her gaze and glanced at her sideways: "Why did you come over? Where's Xiao Zhou?"
"He's playing by himself."
Si Yuan's gaze fell on the fish in his hand, her eyes still showing surprise.
I never expected Jiang Wang to be able to cook, and he seems to be quite good at it.
When did you learn to cook?
Jiang Wang continued working, his voice calm: "I've always known how, I'll know how when I'm eighteen."
"You're lying." Si Yuan looked at him suspiciously: "Didn't you always say you couldn't cook?"
Back then, when she first saw Jiang Wang cooking, she asked him the same question.
Jiang Wang thought of this and a faint smile appeared on his lips. He didn't explain, but just looked up at her and asked, "Could you pour me a glass of water?"
Si Yuan paused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
She got up and walked to the water dispenser, picking up a glass to fill with water. Her gaze swept over the honey jar next to her, she paused, then turned to Jiang Wang and asked, "Do you want something sweet?"
Jiang Wang suddenly stopped.
He looked up at Si Yuan, his eyes filled with shock and long-lost joy.
He thought she didn't remember anything, but to his surprise, she still vaguely remembered that she liked to drink sweet things.
Jiang Wang's heart felt as soft as if it had been soaked in warm water.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice carried a hint of excited anticipation: "Yes."
Si Yuan didn't notice his strange behavior. She added two spoonfuls of honey to the cup, stirred it well, and then brought it to him.
Jiang Wang glanced at the fish in his hand, then at the water in Si Yuan's hand, and suddenly smiled.
"I'm preparing the fish, so I can't drink water. Could you feed me?"
Si Yuan frowned. Jiang Wang's smile seemed somewhat playful and frivolous, and she felt that he was doing it on purpose.
But seeing that his hands were always busy, she really couldn't bring herself to refuse.
She held the cup, leaned slightly forward, and brought the rim of the cup to his lips.
Jiang Wang lowered his head, took a sip from the cup. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, but his gaze lingered on Si Yuan's face, becoming extremely deep.
After feeding the child water, Si Yuan quickly withdrew her hand, but her heart inexplicably beat a little faster.
She gazed at Jiang Wang's profile, silently praising his good looks. She had to admit, Jiang Wang was truly handsome, especially when he was focused on something; he was incredibly charming.
For some inexplicable reason, she suddenly asked, "How many times did we sleep together before we got pregnant?"
These words, like a landmine, were thrown out without any warning or preparation, instantly stunning Jiang Wang.
He coughed violently, his face turning red, and he almost dropped the fish in his hand. He never expected Si Yuan to ask such a question.
It took him a while to catch his breath: "What's on your mind all day?"
Si Yuan blinked, her face serious: "I'm just curious."
Jiang Wang coughed lightly, lowered his eyes, and said in a somewhat unnatural voice, "Not many times."
After saying that, he turned around to get other side dishes, clearly trying to change the subject.
I've been holding back for quite a while.
Now that Si Yuan is right beside him, staring at him blankly with a hint of ignorance in her eyes, and if she adds a little spark, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Jiang Wang feels... quite tormented, and he needs to shift his attention.
Si Yuan didn't press the matter further, but simply continued sitting by the kitchen counter, watching him work. The aroma of food filled the kitchen, making one's mouth water.
As she watched Jiang Wang's retreating figure, she inexplicably thought of her childhood and suddenly said, "You may not know, but I've always had a little dream: to cook three meals a day with the person I love in the future, just like my parents."
Jiang Wang, whose back was to her, stiffened slightly.
Of course he knew.
He always knew.
Si Xingzhou's voice suddenly came from outside: "Dad! Mom! Is dinner ready? I'm hungry!"
Jiang Wang snapped out of his daze and replied, "It'll be ready soon."
Interestingly, when Si Xingzhou first came to this family, he wasn't very happy and wasn't very close to them. He was very wary and not the kind of child who could be coaxed with a little treat or fun.
It wasn't until he saw many photos of him and Si Yuan in the bedroom that he believed this person really was his father. After eating the meal Si Yuan cooked, he was completely captivated.
Who wouldn't want a CEO dad who is handsome, loves his mom, and can cook delicious meals?
More than an hour later, Si Xingzhou was sitting obediently at the dining table, holding a spoon in his hand, looking longingly at the dishes on the table.
The four dishes and one soup were exquisitely presented and had an enticing aroma.
Si Yuan picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of food, and put it in her mouth. The taste was indeed very good; it was made exactly to her liking.
Jiang Wang picked up another piece of fish for her, coaxing her, "Eat slowly, I've removed all the fish bones."
Si Xingzhou nodded in agreement: "Mom, Dad's cooking is super delicious!"
Si Yuan smiled. She was still not used to Jiang Wang being so attentive to her, firstly because no one had ever been so nice to her before, and secondly... because this person was Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang was an almost untouchable and feared figure at school.
Looking at her, Jiang Wang knew that she was actually still a little scared.
He also knew that they had a long way to go, her memories had not yet returned, and there were still many problems between them that needed to be solved.
But it's okay.
As long as she's by my side, as long as we can still eat and live together like this, that's enough.
He had plenty of patience, waiting for her to remember everything, waiting for her to fall in love with him again, and to depend on him again.
If you really can't remember, that's okay.
He was confident he could make her fall in love with him again.
This time, I will definitely not make any more mistakes, and I will definitely not make her sad even a little bit.
