Words I Was Afraid To Hear Chapter 197

Long Yis.h.i.+n sat beside the hospital bed as she wrote on the patient chart . She is currently letting the patient watch some news on the television to help him gain new memories and to check later if he could retain them .

After a report segment on supplies price hike, next came business news .

Long Yis.h.i.+n saw a flicker on the hazel eyes she was observing . She knitted her brows and swiftly turned her head to look at the television .

The news featured the traditional s.h.i.+nto wedding with the headline, 'Igaras.h.i.+ group's Young Mistress tied the knot' and was showing the unique lips of Midori Xiu painted in red as she donned a s.h.i.+romuku during the ceremony . Clips from the wedding videos followed, with changes into modern wedding attire for the bride and groom .

Verdan Zhou's brows are together, but he looked confused .

"What's the matter?" The clear voice of Dr . Long rang in his ears and snapped him out of his thoughts . Long Yis.h.i.+n pretended not to know the woman they were seeing on the television getting married .

"That woman . . . she appeared before me when I was still in Sta . Teresa . She . . . I . . . I don't really remember her, but . . . "

"But what? What about her?"

"She . . . her lips . . . it's as if I've had them . . . "

"What?!" Long Yis.h.i.+n exaggerated her response a little bit .

"I . . . I think we have kissed before . . . that woman . . . is she my ex?"

"She will be if you continue being like this . . . " she mumbled, barely audibly .

"What did you say?" Verdan Zhou believed that what she mumbled was important .

"Mr . Zhou, I do not keep track of your social life, so please don't ask me randomly if a woman you saa is your ex . " She managed to escape from questioning in such a witty manner .

"Oh . . . " he looked at the smiling woman on the television again .

"How do you feel that she is now married to someone else?"

He pondered hard on it . "I . . . I think something hurts inside of me . . . "

"Why is that?"

"I feel like I don't like that woman to be with someone else . Back in Sta . Teresa, she hugged me when she saw me, but I rejected the touch since I believe that I'm married . "

Long Yis.h.i.+n scribbled some notes on his chart . She sighed . "Then, what are you planning to do now?"

"I need to know who she really is . . . "

"Rest a.s.sured that I will treat him as my own . " Takagi Ryuuji bowed to the older Xiu couple .

Masaichi Xiu was still frowning on his sister's wedding . His parents had already explained the circ.u.mstances to him, but he still believes that the idea is stupid . He was even annoyed that the press caught wind of it .

Agatha Yang snapped him out of his thoughts . "Anata, you should smile . It's a happy occasion . " She flashed her white teeth as her dimples sank deeper .

"She is just fooling herself . " Masaichi Xiu had a stern face . He never approved of this . Even though he does not particularly like Verdan Zhou, he had already recognized him as his brother-in-law . His pride prevents him from tolerating this act .

"Well, she can legally do this, after all, Verdan Zhou's 'death' had been registered even before his 'funeral' and besides, marriage is territorial . " Agatha Yang reasoned out with a gentle smile .

Masaichi Xiu frowned . "You have been overseas for quite some time . Did you have another husband there?"

She chuckled . "Who knows . . . "

"Why you . . !" He finally laughed .

"Anata, we should laugh this off, for now . . . besides, maybe this could make your real brother-in-law to realize who his wife really is . "

He looked at the couple who were greeting the guests . "I do hope so . "

It was quite ironic that his sister's real wedding was too intimate and was kept hidden, while the null one was even broadcasted by several news channels . It would be a shame if his brother-in-law would just remain 'dead' to his sister .
