Chapter 1998: Shattered Memories

Le Tian’s body convulsed violently as she shook her aching forehead forcefully. It was as if something was trying to worm its way out, but she could not see anything clearly. Many voices were talking into her ears, yet she could not make heads nor tails out of them.

“Le Tian, Le Tian—” Ding Junqi looked at Le Tian’s face that was drained of all colors suddenly, and her vicious expression from the torturous pain.

What happened to her?

Le Tian started to shrink into a ball slowly with her hands around her head.

“Le Tian—” Ding Junqi hurriedly squatted down and picked her up. Then, he opened the door with his leg and carried the moaning Le Tian back to the bedroom.

“Mommy, Mommy—” Ding Yuejia watched as his father walked out with his mother in his arms. He gave up on his chicken wings and hurriedly ran over.

Ding Junqi put Le Tian on the bed. Le Tian immediately curled up into a ball from the pain.

“Mommy, Mommy—”

Ding Junqi looked at Le Tian’s tortured expression and quickly reached for his phone, asking Yu Dong to call the doctor over.

“Right now! Immediately!” Ding Junqi shouted aggressively. After hanging up the phone, he sat down next to Le Tian and pulled her into his arms. Due to her extreme headache, Le Tian dug her fingers into Ding Junqi’s wrist, drawing blood with every scratch she made.

“Mommy.” Ding Yuejia was so frightened that tears trickled from his eyes. He did not even dare to make any noise as he cried.

Le Tian’s hands were flailing about amidst her pain. To prevent her from hurting her son or herself, Ding Junqi restrained both of her hands within his grip. This allowed Le Tian to dig her nails into his wrists until there was not a piece of unscathed skin on Ding Junqi’s wrists.

Among the onslaught of chaotic images, none of them were clear enough for her to make sense of. There were all kinds of overlapping voices, yet none of them was coherent.

These things were tearing at her brain as though their end goal was to tear all her nerves apart. She could not bear the pain.

“Argh—” Le Tian growled in pain before falling unconscious.

“Le Tian, Le Tian—” Ding Junqi called out. He put his bloodied hand below her nose. Thankfully, she was still breathing. At least it proved that she was alive, right?

“Daddy, what’s wrong with Mommy?” Ding Yuejia wiped the sweat off his mother’s forehead with his small hands. His small face was filled with tears from the heartache he felt for his mother.

That was a question that Ding Junqi wanted to know the answer to, too. Ever since she returned from the production team—no, it should be said that she was already acting strange when she was there.

Thus, was it because of what Mu Qi said to her?

“Yuejia, what did that auntie say to Mommy?” Ding Junqi looked at his son and asked.

Ding Yuejia raised his head in response. His eyes were as red as a little rabbit’s. “She said she wanted to treat Mommy to a meal. Mommy seemed very angry and turned her down.”

Just because she invited Le Tian to a meal?

It did not take the doctor long to arrive. After Ding Junqi let him in, the doctor examined Le Tian.

Ding Yuejia watched nervously. “My Mommy’s head is hurting. She’s in so much pain. Uncle Hong, please save my Mommy.”

Hong Xuancheng was Ding Junqi’s family doctor. He was about the same age as Ding Junqi. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed gla.s.ses and a white coat. He carried himself with refined elegance. After working as Ding Junqi’s family doctor for a few years, he developed a close relations.h.i.+p with Ding Junqi.

His gaze fell on Ding Junqi’s slightly mangled wrists. Just how much strength did she use to grab him? That was an indicator of how much pain she was in.

However, after Hong Xuancheng examined her, he did not find any major problems other than her rapid heartbeat.

“You should treat your wounds first. I can’t detect anything wrong with her this way. I suggest you take her to the hospital for a CT scan. If her headache is as terrible as you described, better be safe than sorry,” Hong Xuancheng said sternly.
