nFor some reason, the other woman found it amusing to tease her newfound friend. She liked Tian Ruyi even at first, she had a bad impression of her since she thought that she was a mistress. Although after learning more about her, it was not hard to like her.

n

"I think it's time that you give Bai Keran a call,

" said Tian Ruyi as she took the television remote from the side.

n

"Maybe later. I don't want my mood to be spoiled just yet.

" She was enjoying the apples she sliced for her

n

"Then how about we go out shopping? You've been locked here for weeks! I'm amazed by how much patience you have. I never thought that you are actually such an introvert.

"

nLu Mengjie gently placed her hand on her tummy, she could feel her baby bump since she was already almost four months pregnant. It was not like she didn't want to go out, she just wanted to make sure that she would have a safe pregnancy. Her motherly instincts were taking control of her. She would usually go to the balcony whenever she wanted to breathe some fresh air. Most may think that it was boring to stay at home the whole day or week but not for her. There were so many things she could do and one of them was to practice her cooking skills.

n

"If it was me, I wouldn't be able to tolerate staying at one place for so long,

" she continued.

n

"That's why you keep going here and there always,

" Lu Mengjie chuckled.

n

"I'm known for traveling around. I actually wanted to include you in my videos but we're trying to keep you away from other people's eyes as much as possible since we don't want you to be recognized again. We don't know for sure if they are your friend or enemies, not until all your memories return.

"

n

"Am I complaining about it? No, right?

" She also preferred keeping her identity for now. She didn't want to gain unwanted attention. What if an enemy of her past suddenly took advantage and attacked her? She would definitely be at a disadvantage. She already changed her mind about visiting the boy named Lust. She feared that he might be a member of a criminal organization.

nTian Ruyi leaned just to hug her from the side, snapping her out of her thoughts when she whined,

"Mengmeng, go out with meee. Let's go shopping together.

"

nLu Mengjie looked at her, raising a brow. She noticed that she has been clingy to her lately and it was becoming… annoying. She rudely pushed her away.

"Now that I think about it, I don't like being hugged.

"

nTian Ruyi was about to open her mouth and retort but Lu Mengjie continued,

"get ready, we're going out.

" She stood up and began walking back to her room.

n

"Don't forget to wear a disguise!

" Her friend reminded from the living room.

n

"I know.

"

n…

nAt the mall…

nLu Mengjie followed Tian Ruyi to the department store. Unlike her friend, she was not interested in buying whatever captured her eyes. She would easily get tired so whenever the other woman would try out some dresses, she would patiently sit on the couch and wait.

n

"We should pass by the children's section.

"

n

"I don't know the gender of my baby,

" she replied. Lu Mengjie was currently checking out the bag that Tian Ruyi was handing to her.

n

"Then we should pass by the hospital before we head home. I think you should have a check-up for you and the baby.

"

n

"Alright.

" She gave a short reply while trying out the bag.

n

"You seem to like that bag, do you want to buy it?

"

nShe slowly lifted her head just to look at her with a grin.

" Will you buy it for me?

"

nTian Ruyi rolled her eyes, retorting,

"of course. I'm basically your walking wallet right now.

"

n

"Walking wallet, that has a nice ring to it,

" she grinned.

"I think it's more of a compliment than an insult.

"

n

"I'll take it as a compliment then,

" she chuckled.

"By the way, I'm going to the restroom, will you be fine on your own?

"

nLu Mengjie huffed,

"I'm not a kid.

"

n

"I know. I just want to make sure.

"

nAfter Tian Ruyi left, Lu Mengjie continued to try the bag. It was beautiful but she wanted to check out the others so she placed the bag down. Just then, as soon as she turned, she ended up bumping into someone, making her lose her balance.

n

"Ah-

" Lu Mengjie internally panicked, she closed her eyes and subconsciously wrapped her arms protectively around her stomach as she braced herself for impact but it never came. Instead, the man she bumped into was now holding her by her waist.

n

"I'm sorry, are you…

" the man paused, his eyes widening upon seeing her.

"You…

"

nShe slowly opened her eyes only to see another handsome Asian man. His eyes were hidden behind a pair of round sunglasses that mirrored the scene in front. He was emanating sexual duende that had her belly fluttered. He smelled perfectly divine. She felt her brain sort of fried right there and then.

n

"It's you…

" His thick brows knitted slightly upon recognizing her.

n

"Me…?

" She blinked a few times in confusion. No one should recognize her now since she was in a disguise. She was wearing a blonde wig and even had a bit of heavy makeup on.

nHe straightened his back, pulling her along, allowing her to regain her footing but he never released her waist. He took off his sunglasses, revealing his narrowed yet beautiful midnight eyes.

nShe couldn't help but be mesmerized by his deep eyes. They were dark like the starry night, with distinctive elegance looking at her with pure surprise.

n

"I finally found you…

"

nUpon hearing his words, it ended up triggering some of her memories.

n

"D… daddy?

"

nThe sudden surge of memories that entered her head was overwhelming that her head began aching.
