After Losing My Memory, My Husband Begged Me to Love Him Again

As Gu Wan and Lu Yu returned to the villa, lights in each room soon flickered on one by one.

The butler and housekeepers, hearing the commotion, came forward to help. Upon seeing the intoxicated Mr. Lu, they were momentarily surprised but said nothing, simply fetching towels and brewing honey water.

Almost as soon as Gu Wan's feet touched the ground, Beibei, hearing the noise, excitedly came to greet her. Seeing so many people gathered around Lu Yu, Gu Wan hesitated only briefly before trying to release her supporting grip on him.

However, as soon as she loosened her hold, Lu Yu seemed to sense it and clung to her again.

After a two-second standoff, Gu Wan had no choice but to accompany Lu Yu up to the master bedroom.

Fortunately, the drunk man was relatively quiet. As soon as they entered the room, he walked towards the bed of his own accord. Only after he collapsed spread-eagle on the bed did Gu Wan have a chance to pat Beibei's head reassuringly.

Lu Yu, probably feeling uncomfortable, irritably yanked off his tie. In just that short moment, his previously crisp suit became all wrinkled.

Gu Wan couldn't help but glance at the butler, who seemed ready to leave.

Under the mistress's watchful gaze, the butler could only silently apologize to Mr. Lu in his heart. He then picked up the fallen tie and helped the mistress change Mr. Lu's jacket.

As for going any further, no matter what Gu Wan said, the butler absolutely refused to do anything more.

Gu Wan couldn't understand why. They were both men, it was just changing into pajama pants. Why was the butler so resistant? But since Gu Wan had no intention of forcing him, she didn't say anything more.

When the butler turned around, he finally let out a sigh of relief. Heaven knows how much pressure Mr. Lu's glance, when the mistress wasn't looking, had put on him.

The butler left quickly. The housekeeper also brought a glass of honey water two minutes later and then swiftly disappeared, so fast that Gu Wan didn't even have time to stop her.

Gu Wan felt something was odd, but seeing Lu Yu's unconscious state, she had no choice. Given his relative cooperativeness, she reluctantly took matters into her own hands.

Beibei, who hadn't received any affection at her feet, couldn't help but bark a couple of times.

Gu Wan could only verbally soothe the dog while continuing her task.

Two minutes later, she inadvertently touched something, and her voice suddenly disappeared.

Although... wasn't it said that truly drunk people couldn't get aroused?

Just as Lu Yu was starting to feel uneasy about the awkward silence in the bedroom, he suddenly felt a shadow looming over him. Lu Yu first caught a whiff of a faint fragrance, then felt warm breath by his ear.

"If you keep pretending to be drunk, I won't be so nice."

Her tone was still gentle, but hearing it made Lu Yu's heart suddenly tighten.

At this, Lu Yu had no choice but to open his eyes.

Seeing the man's gaze, which was slightly hazy but not as out of it as she had imagined, Gu Wan was momentarily speechless, not knowing why a grown man would play such tricks.

Seeing that Gu Wan was thoroughly done with him, whether due to the alcohol or not, Lu Yu felt a pang in his heart and couldn't help but cry out, "You weren't like this before!"

Gu Wan had heard this kind of thing so many times lately that she was already immune to it.

The amnesiac her just found him noisy.

Gu Wan couldn't be bothered to deal with him. She got up, preparing to change clothes and then go to the bathroom to wash up. Lu Yu only felt the brush of chiffon against his arm. He instinctively reached out to grab her, but only caught a handful of cold air.

Lu Yu lay flat on the bed, staring at the ceiling for a long while before he unsteadily sat up.

Gu Wan had only just started brushing her teeth when, in the blink of an eye, she was embraced from behind.

Seeing this scene in the mirror, Gu Wan was exasperated. She reached out to push him away, "What exactly do you want?"

"Can you stop messing around?"

Lu Yu felt these words were familiar. He used to say them often, just as he found her annoying back then.

Lu Yu gradually began to understand why Gu Wan used to like clinging to him back then.

Unfortunately, it was too late now.

Lu Yu buried his head in the crook of Gu Wan's neck, gently inhaling her pleasant scent. He didn't speak or resist, but stubbornly refused to leave.

Gu Wan was at her wit's end with his antics. She was forced to complete the entire process of brushing her teeth, washing her face, and applying skincare products with this large human accessory attached to her back.

He was really annoying.

Seeming to sense Gu Wan's mood, Beibei, who had been circling around her, started barking even more fiercely.

Lu Yu let out a soft grunt and glared at the clueless little dog. As Gu Wan started wiping her face with a towel, he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Beibei is so annoying, barking so fiercely. Can we chase it out?"

Gu Wan: "..."

Gu Wan couldn't even be bothered to respond.

Seeing Gu Wan's indifferent attitude, and thinking about how she wouldn't even grant him this small request, the alcohol hit Lu Yu hard, and the more he thought about it, the more upset he became.

Looking at Gu Wan's beautiful profile and nearly perfect neckline, Lu Yu wondered how someone so beautiful could be so cold and heartless.

Unable to control himself, Lu Yu suddenly bit the back of her neck.

Gu Wan finally couldn't take it anymore. She shoved Lu Yu away, called for Beibei, and turned to leave.

Her final choice between man and dog was crystal clear.

Lu Yu staggered two steps, his footing unsteady, and nearly fell. However, Gu Wan didn't even glance at him. Her retreating figure and unfaltering steps nearly broke Lu Yu's heart.

Only after chasing her to the guest room did Lu Yu finally settle down.

Held tightly in his arms, unable to move, Gu Wan felt that sometimes reminders were necessary. One couldn't just stand by and do nothing, thinking it didn't concern them. Otherwise, who could handle him acting like this every time he got drunk?

Feeling that she had finally stopped struggling, Lu Yu couldn't help but kiss her ear again, and suddenly said, "It wasn't just an act for others to see."

His sudden statement in the middle of the night left Gu Wan confused for a while. After a moment, she remembered what she had casually said after helping him into the car.

Gu Wan was stunned, then couldn't help but laugh a little.

If it wasn't an act, could it possibly be real?

But Gu Wan didn't want to argue with him further, so she casually replied, "Mm-hmm, I know. Go to sleep now."

The next second, Gu Wan clearly felt his arms tighten around her waist after she finished speaking.

Lu Yu finally stopped talking. Just as Gu Wan was about to fall asleep, she heard him say, "Don't leave me."

"Never leave me, okay?"

Hearing a voice, Gu Wan became slightly more alert.

Although Lu Yu was drunk now and probably wouldn't remember anything she said when he woke up, Gu Wan still didn't want to lie about promises.

She didn't answer, because she herself didn't know if she would leave in the future, so she wouldn't easily make promises.

Of these two statements, the only thing Gu Wan could be certain of was—

"There's no such thing as forever in this world. Everything changes, and will ultimately change."

Whether it's people or anything else, nothing can remain in the same place forever.

Gu Wan felt that Lu Yu in his sober state would understand this. Perhaps it was really the alcohol talking, making him say such unrealistic things.

Gu Wan didn't dwell on it further and quickly fell asleep.

As her breathing gradually steadied, Lu Yu finally closed his eyes, sober and in pain.

In the following period, Gu Wan's injured right hand and forehead fully recovered. However, since the wound on her forehead had been quite large, even though Gu Wan diligently applied scar-removal cream every day, a faint mark remained. If one didn't look closely, it wasn't noticeable, but the existence of this slight scar demonstrated that some things, once changed, stay changed.

At first, Gu Wan was considering whether she should get laser treatment if it became serious, but after examining herself in the mirror for a while, she felt it might not be necessary after all.

Realizing that no amount of further application would make a difference, Gu Wan finally tossed aside the scar removal cream.

Compared to this, Gu Wan was now more interested in some thrilling amusement park rides. Moreover, since her appearance at the recent banquet had thoroughly cleared up certain rumors, there was no need for her to stay here any longer.

No matter how prosperous City A was, she had grown tired of living there for so many years.

Although Gu Wan wasn't particularly fond of going out, once her interest was piqued, she didn't hesitate to travel. The only regret was that Qianqian was considering job hunting recently and might not be able to join her.

Fortunately, there was still Beibei. Although it might be a bit troublesome, Beibei would probably prefer to go with her rather than stay at home.

Gu Wan's original plan was to go abroad for a while, but considering Beibei's advanced age and the potential risks of air travel, she ultimately chose a few nearby domestic locations to see if Beibei could adapt.

So when Lu Yu came home one evening, he heard that Gu Wan was planning to go on a trip for an indefinite period. She might return in ten days or half a month, or perhaps not until the New Year.

Lu Yu was a bit flustered upon hearing this. His first reaction was to wonder if someone or something had upset her recently. Or perhaps... had he done something wrong?

Or maybe she felt he had been coming home too frequently lately and didn't want to see him, so she was planning to avoid him.

However, after hearing his concerns, Gu Wan was taken aback. She then asked, puzzled, "What does this have to do with anything you've done or whether you come home or not?"

It had nothing to do with anyone else's behavior. She wanted to go out, so she planned to go out. It was that simple.

Gu Wan just... hadn't thought about revolving her life around him.
