Chapter 694 Ah-Xian

Chapter 694 Ah-Xian　　Shui Xian took Raelle to the ward where Tang Hebe was. Zhai Yanjun wanted to follow them but Shui Xian told him to go back first. He knew Zhai Yanjun was busy and yet came here to look for him. He couldn't leave his battalion just like this, it was better to send Zhai Yanjun back.

When Raelle and Shui Xian entered the ward, a doctor was standing beside Tang Hebe as he checked up on her, asking her questions. Tang Hebe seemed to be cooperating with the doctor obediently. She looked paler than before and quite weak and delicate. Unlike Raelle who still maintained her expressionless face after such an accident, Tang Hebe seemed to be very sad and downcast. 

Not only that, she was in pain as well. Even with the painkillers, she was still able to feel a dull pain in her body and it didn't feel good at all.

Noticing that someone entered the ward, she looked up and her eyes sparkled once her eyes fell on Shui Xian and she sweetly called out, "Ah-Xian!"

Shui Xian's body froze when he heard that all too familiar voice, tone, and way of address. It was as if someone just stirred up the deeply buried memories in his mind. However, the voice that once made his heart tremble now had no effect on him of that sort. 

Meanwhile, Raelle keenly could tell that something was wrong right now. No matter what was up with her EQ, she could still read the atmosphere better than most people. And she could tell that the way Tang Hebe just called Shui Xian or looked at him was very wrong.

What's up with that passionate gaze this woman had set on her husband? 

Was that even allowed?

Who allowed it? 

The legal wife was standing right here! Who gave this woman the guts to eye her husband?!

"Ah-Xian, what took you so long? See, I got hurt? It's painful," said Tang Hebe coquettishly. Her eyes had a watery sheen as she went on with a pout, "You know you have to be there whenever I'm in pain. How can you leave me alone?"

Now, even Shui Xian's brain buzzed as his brain even stopped working for a moment. He was seeing her for the first time since they got divorced and from what he knew about Tang Hebe, she'd never spoken to him like this at their first meeting after the divorce. It looked more like they never... divorced.

His heart shuddered at that thought and he held Raelle's hand even more tightly.

The doctor observed her reaction as well and asked, "Miss Tang, do you recognize the gentleman there?"

Tang Hebe looked at the doctor as if she was looking at an idiot, "How can I not recognize my own husband?"

That's it!

Those words really made an explosion in Shui Xian's mind. 

On the other hand, Raelle instantly pulled Shui Xian behind her body and stood in front of him like a protective lion. She was guarding her territory. Who could dare eye her possessions? It was Raelle Xiang! She never liked sharing her things!

She could share Yanyan, Opa, and even Hyson with others. Because she understood that they weren't her possessions but Shui Xian was different! He was her husband! HUSBAND! 

That meant, only Raelle as his wife had the complete right over him! 

She was so easily convinced of marriage because she wanted someone in her life who would only belong to her. Someone whom no one else could claim as theirs! And a husband fits that criteria. 

What made people think she wasn't possessive? She was the most possessive person on earth! 

While the doctor asked Tang Hebe questions like what year it was and what was her name and etc etc, Shui Xian was standing behind looking at the back of Raelle's head. Was it alright for him to feel so giddy right now? He had never seen Raelle lose her composure. But she always reacted intensely whenever someone even eyed him.

Now that someone even dared to claim him as her husband right in front of Raelle, she actually lost her composure?

He saw vigilance in her eyes. That was such a vivid emotion that he was enthralled by it. This woman's eyes didn't even change when she went through such a big incident but now, she lost her calmness? 

No matter what, he was very happy about that. 

But he certainly wasn't happy about what the doctor told him next, "Mr. Shui, how about we talk outside?"

Shui Xian nodded his head and was about to leave with Raelle following behind him when Tang Hebe called out, "Ah-Xian, come back soon. I don't like to be alone here."

Shui Xian didn't even stop and just followed the doctor out. 

"She has amnesia?" asked Raelle even before the doctor could speak up. 

The doctor looked at Raelle and didn't dare to stare into her eyes. She didn't look happy. Well, she didn't look angry as well. But as a doctor, he was certainly able to perceive that he had to speak wisely if he wanted to live.

"We'll have to perform a few more tests to confirm her condition but at the moment it is clear that she seemed to have forgotten some things," said the doctor seriously. "Precisely, it seems her memory has gone back to a certain time period."

"Is it permanent?" asked Shui Xian.

"That's difficult to say," said the doctor. "In fact, it can be just because of the shock that she isn't able to remember certain things temporarily. You don't have to worry, there is a high possibility that she'll be able to remember things in 24 hours."

"And if she doesn't remember it?" asked Raelle. 

"This..." Even the doctor found it difficult to answer that question. "Let's not jump to conclusions for now. We should be positive and wait patiently for what's to come. Her head injury was quite serious and losing memory isn't that rare in such cases. We should give the patient some time."
