Mengmeng remained at the hospital for three more days and was discharged shortly after the results of the additional tests were out. Except for her head injury, there was nothing else wrong with her body. Her injuries were already healed during the time she was in a coma.

"I hope you can get your memories back and remember this place," said Bai Keran as he led her out of the car.

She stepped out from the black car, gaping at the large mansion that set beyond her, towering over her as if attempting to intimidate her. The cream coating of the paint shined as the sun beat down on it, causing the girl to have to squint. It was large and elegant in design. The woodwork on the outside was filled with frills and embellishments which suggested many woodcarvers working overtime for ages.

Upon entering the house, the light streaming in through the large windows added brightness and bliss to the atmosphere. Well-trained servants lined up and greeted them in unison.

Wow… it looked like she hit a jackpot. To be an adoptive daughter of a rich old man… how lucky!

"Father!"

A woman coming from the living room was stomping her way towards them. "Is it true?! You engaged my so-" she came to a stop the moment her eyes landed on Mengmeng. The question she was about to ask was already answered.

The girl unconsciously shrunk away from the angry-looking woman, she moved to hide behind the only man she trusted in that place, Bai Keran.

"Father! He's my son! I will-"

"We can talk about this later." The old man didn't look bothered by her outbursts. Instead, he looked at Bai Jingye and ordered, "escort her to her room."

Despite wanting to protest further, Bai Jingye's mother kept her mouth shut in the presence of the old man. It only showed how much authority he has in the place. Everyone obeyed him despite their feelings.

Mengmeng was shortly led by her 'fiance' to the grand stairway to the second floor near the formal entrance.

It was strange, the man who was introduced to her as her fiancé was indifferent to her but at the same time, it was what attracted her more to him. Bai Jingye had a blank look on his handsome face the whole time when Bai Keran introduced him to her. He has an aloof and mysterious air around him. She could not read him at all. She could only wonder what was going in his mind.

"This will be your room from now on," he finally spoke after he opened the door's room for her.

She faced him and couldn't help but stare at his stoic face. He even looked better than the actors and models she saw on the television.

A blush spread on her cheeks when his sharp eyes landed on her. Her heart became uneasy when she was stared at by such an attractive man.

"G-grandpa said that… you're my fiancé…" Mengmeng started. She was like a child who easily got enticed by sparkling things and right at that moment, she has that look in her eyes. It was hard to begin a conversation with him but she still tried.

The man remained unaffected by her. He was already used to women with great beauty falling for him at first sight. What he couldn't understand at that moment was the reason why his grandfather suddenly decided on insisting on letting him marry her. He could have easily said no if that old man wasn't blackmailing him. But just because he agreed to marry her didn't mean that he wasn't going to make things hard for her.

Hearing no response from him only made things awkward for Mengmeng. She lowered her head and stared at her hands as she fiddled with her fingers. They were childhood friends… shouldn't they be at least on good terms? Didn't grandpa Bai tell her that they were in a relationship? Then why was he acting so apathetic? Shouldn't he be treating her kindly?

Whenever he visited her at the hospital, his treatment of her was always the same. Indifferent and cold.

"I lost my memories…"

"So?" He raised a brow at her, looking at her with a callous gaze. "Am I supposed to pity you?"

"…"

This man… was he really her lover?

Even if she lost her memories, it didn't mean that she became dumb. Something was not right no matter how attracted she was to the man in front of her.

"You… aren't you supposed to be my lover?" She questioned with slight hesitation. Confusion was evident in her eyes.

"Lover?" He scoffed at the word. "This engagement may be arranged by grandfather but it doesn't mean that I will automatically be your lover."
