Chapter 742: Paranoia
Chapter 742: Paranoia
When the two walked in, Father Shen casually dragged two chairs from the corner and handed them over, asking straightforwardly without waiting for them to speak, "Who are you to me?"Rong Qingqing glanced at Shen Jue, then softly said, "Dad, he’s your son, the real kind, so he definitely looks like you."
Hearing this, Father Shen’s guarded expression relaxed a bit, and the way the girl called him ’dad’ softened his heart. He smiled and asked Rong Qingqing, "Then are you my daughter? Recently, I vaguely remembered that I seem to have two children, a son and a daughter. I’ve had several dreams where I remember calling my daughter Qiaoqiao. Are you Qiaoqiao?"
Rong Qingqing was embarrassed, shook her head repeatedly, and waved her hands.
"I’m your daughter-in-law," Rong Qingqing said, "Qiaoqiao is at school."
After speaking, Rong Qingqing pointed at Shen Jue and asked, "Do you remember his name?"
Father Shen once again stared at Shen Jue, not answering immediately, instead furrowing his brows as if trying hard to think.
Seeing this, Rong Qingqing couldn’t help but whisper to Shen Jue.
Or rather, she couldn’t help but jab Shen Juexin with a knife.
"Dad doesn’t have to think to remember Qiaoqiao’s name, but when it comes to yours, he looks like he’s in great pain. Were you particularly annoying to Dad in the past? Did Dad love Qiaoqiao more than you?"
Even though the three of them were sitting close, no matter how softly Rong Qingqing spoke, Father Shen still heard it.
Shen Jue and Father Shen both looked at Rong Qingqing at the same time, their eyes making Rong Qingqing nervous.
Did she say something wrong? Why were they staring at her like that?
Even though the truth is unpleasant, it is still the truth, right?
Rong Qingqing quietly moved her chair a little to the side, looking like she wanted to run away. Shen Jue reached out to press her back, "Where do you think you’re going?"
"I’m not going anywhere!" Rong Qingqing responded in denial, sitting obediently without making a sound.
Father Shen was amused by the interaction of this couple in front of him.
Obviously, his daughter-in-law was a very interesting girl, although he couldn’t find any memories of her. But from the way she spoke, she seemed to have a good relationship with his daughter.
Moreover, from watching the couple’s interaction, Father Shen could tell that they were very much in love.
When the husband looked at his wife, his eyes were full of indulgence.
Even though the words from his mouth weren’t always pleasant, his tone was always one of undisguised affection and helplessness.
Shen Jue kept one hand on Rong Qingqing’s knee to stop her from moving further aside, then turned back to Father Shen.
"If you don’t remember, it’s okay. I just don’t understand why you haven’t tried contacting the embassy to find us, your family, after all this time?" This was something Shen Jue couldn’t figure out.
"If you must ask so clearly, then I can only say it’s because of excessive suspicion," Father Shen explained. "When I woke up and had lost all memory, I could only judge some things through my own condition, so I couldn’t remember many things, making me hesitant in my actions."
"After waking up, I couldn’t find any documents on me to clarify my identity. Captain Jim deduced from my shirt and watch that I was a wealthy man. I inexplicably fell into the water, drifted on the lake, and was severely injured when found, with no memory. I couldn’t figure out why I was injured and fell into the water. Recklessly searching for my family, I always had to worry if the reason I ended up like this was because of my family."
