Chapter 257 My Sister-in-Law is My Soulmate

When Tan Xiaoxuan spoke of this, tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice choked with emotion: "Ziqing, for Haoyu, his sister-in-law was not only his wife, but also his soulmate. Her departure left Haoyu heartbroken."

Touched by Tan Xiaoxuan's sadness, Zhu Ziqing couldn't help but gently pat her shoulder and comfort her, "Xiaoxuan, don't be too sad. I believe Haoyu will pull through."

Tan Xiaoxuan raised her head, her eyes full of sincerity: "Ziqing, I know you have feelings for Haoyu, but I hope you can understand that Haoyu's deep affection for his sister-in-law is irreplaceable."

Zhu Ziqing was taken aback for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "Xiaoxuan, you've misunderstood. I really don't have any good feelings for Haoyu. I'm just here to take care of Xiaoqing. Don't worry, I won't overstep any boundaries."

She paused, a hint of determination in her eyes: "I can see that Haoyu loves my sister-in-law deeply. After he comes back, I will try to keep my distance to avoid misunderstandings."

After Zhu Ziqing finished speaking, she turned to leave. Tan Xiaoxuan, however, stood frozen in place, her face full of confusion. She was extremely anxious, wanting to stop Zhu Ziqing and tell her the truth, but she didn't dare to shout it out. She knew that if Tan Haoyu found out about this, she might face serious consequences.

As Tan Xiaoxuan watched Zhu Ziqing's retreating figure, she couldn't help but roar in her heart, "Ziqing, don't you understand? You are the woman Haoyu deeply loves!"

She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms. She desperately wanted Zhu Ziqing to approach Tan Haoyu and save his withered spirit. But she was also afraid that revealing the truth might put her in danger.

Tan Xiaoxuan took a deep breath and whispered, "Ziqing, I just hope you understand that Haoyu needs you. Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, I hope you can be with him..."

……

Winter in Shenzhen is short and mild, and the breath of spring has already filled the air.

At night, the sky is dotted with stars, and a crescent moon hangs high in the sky, casting a soft silver light.

Tan Haoyu stood on the terrace outside the villa, a cigarette between his fingers, his gaze fixed on the villa in the distance. He was anxious and restless, his thoughts preoccupied with Zhu Ziqing and Xiao Qingqing inside. He had sent Xiao Xingyi to investigate, while he used cigarettes to numb himself while waiting for news.

Tan Haoyu is known for his ruthless and decisive approach to business, a true business tycoon. However, in his private life, especially in matters of the heart, he appears remarkably oblivious. At this moment, he stares at the cigarette butt in his hand, his eyes filled with confusion.

Zhu Ziqing was lying quietly in the villa's guest room; she had been taken to Tan Haoyu's house for the night. However, she had forgotten Tan Haoyu, forgotten everything between them. Tan Haoyu stood on the terrace, looking towards the villa, unsure how to face her.

Xiao Xingyi came out of the villa and quickly walked to Tan Haoyu's side. Seeing the anxiety on Tan Haoyu's face, he sighed softly, "Haoyu, how is it?"

Tan Haoyu looked up, his eyes filled with urgency: "She really doesn't remember anything?"

Xiao Xingyi nodded, his tone heavy: "It's true. I talked to her for a long time, and she has genuinely forgotten the past; she's not pretending."

Tan Haoyu's face instantly darkened, and the cigarette butt in his hand trembled slightly between his fingers: "How could this be? What could have caused her to forget everything?"

Xiao Xingyi was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "There are many reasons for amnesia. It could be caused by human intervention or psychological trauma. We need to investigate slowly."

Tan Haoyu shook his head, a hint of stubbornness in his eyes: "No, Ziqing isn't the kind of person who would choose to forget the past because of psychological trauma. She has always been strong and optimistic."

Xiao Xingyi sighed; he knew Tan Haoyu was right. Zhu Ziqing was resilient and never easily defeated by difficulties. He thought for a moment, then continued, "Amnesia comes in many types and degrees. Some are temporary, while others are long-term. We can take her to the hospital for a checkup to rule out the possibility of brain injury."

Tan Haoyu fell silent, staring at the cigarette butt in his hand, a hint of confusion in his eyes. He knew Xiao Xingyi was right, but he simply couldn't accept the fact. Zhu Ziqing had forgotten him, forgotten everything between them, and he didn't know how to face her like this.

He took a deep breath, slowly exhaled smoke, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll arrange the medical check-up. But before that, I need to figure out what to do next..."

Seeing Tan Haoyu lost in thought, Xiao Xingyi sighed softly, his tone tinged with helplessness: "Haoyu, no matter why Ziqing forgot the past, it's not a good thing. She lost her memory, just like she lost her past self. But perhaps... it's alright if she doesn't remember the past. As long as we give her enough warmth, she will eventually accept us."

Tan Haoyu raised his head, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, his gaze sharpening: "But, Ziqing is still with Zhu Shigou."

Xiao Xingyi was slightly taken aback, then realized what he meant. He frowned and asked in a low voice, "Are you worried about Zhu Shigou?"

Tan Haoyu nodded, a complex emotion in his eyes: "If Ziqing doesn't regain her memory, she won't believe Zhu Shigou's evil deeds. For the past three years, she's been kept in the dark by Zhu Shigou, even treating him like family..." As he said this, his voice trembled slightly, as if something was choking him.

"The thought of Ziqing spending three years with that old fox makes me feel suffocated," Tan Haoyu said, his voice tinged with anger and helplessness. He knew Zhu Shigou's character well; that old fox was ruthless and would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. And Zhu Ziqing had been completely used by him.

Tan Haoyu's gaze turned icy, and he said through gritted teeth, "I cannot forgive Zhu Shigou for exploiting Ziqing's weakness and making her recognize a thief as her father!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xingyi's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a low voice, "That old fox Zhu Shigou is indeed ruthless. However, now is not the time to deal with him."

Tan Haoyu glanced at him coldly, his voice carrying a hint of warning: "Xingyi, I know you're angry, but you can't touch Zhu Shigou now. He still has Ziqing in his hands."

Xiao Xingyi smiled slightly, a hint of cunning in his eyes: "Don't worry, I know what's important. I won't act rashly at this time."

The two were silent for a moment. Tan Haoyu sighed, his tone tinged with helplessness: "We both know that Zhu Shigou is Ziqing's only relative and support after she lost her memory. If something happens to him, Ziqing will break down."
