Lihua rapidly blinked her eyes at him and watched him in a stupor. "Huh?"

She looked around her once again. The room was pretty dark with little to no light. It was quiet and silent with her resting on a long patient's chair. There were only two men inside the darkroom, one of which suddenly said that she was his wife.

Wife? I don't even know who they are. Am I not-

Suddenly, she stopped thinking as a question arose in her mind.

Am I not...what? Wait a minute.

Who am I?

She tried to think of something, anything related to her life, but it was all blank. There was nothing that came to her mind. Her name, family, childhood, friends, school - it was empty. She tried to recollect hard, but in the end, she still couldn't come up with anything.

There were no memories at all. It was dark and empty.

How is it possible? My name. What is my name?

She looked at Wei in confusion and stammered. "I...I don't know. This is strange. I am not able to remember anything. You are suddenly saying that I am your wife, but why don't I know that? Where is this place? I don't understand what's going on. Who are you?"

He stiffened.

The moment he was most afraid of was finally here. That question that he didn't wish to hear pierced his eardrums in agony.

Who are you?

A suffocating feeling erupted in his chest as if strangling him. His hands slightly shook as he held her palm. He knew this was going to happen. They were the consequences of his own decision. He couldn't back out now. It was a choice he already made and acted upon.

But it hurt. It hurt like hell for Lihua not to remember him.

From the darkness, Mingshen was quietly observing them. With her questions and confusion, it was clear that their plan succeeded. It was now up to Wei to fill the gaps of her confusion with lies he had prepared.

Amidst the pain that shredded Wei's heart apart into pieces, he steeled himself and smiled. He forced his shaking hand to calm down and firmly held her hand in reassurance.

"I will tell you everything. But first, calm down," he gently patted her head. "It's not good for your health."

Lihua stiffened and slowly relaxed. His pats were warm and his smile so soft that she felt a numbing sensation in her chest. She wondered how he really looked. His face wasn't clearly visible because the room was shrouded in darkness. It was kind of half clear and half murky. She could only gather that his features were sharp and beautiful.

There were too many questions swirling in her mind for which she had no answers that panicked her. But the moment she heard his soothing voice, she strangely felt at peace. Her heart skipped a beat and she didn't know why.

"Okay…"

She took a deep breath. It was surely sudden and out of nowhere, but panicking was not going to get her anywhere. She wanted answers and the two men here seemed to have them. She had to know the situation from them.

He nodded.

"First, who am I? I don't remember my name. Actually, I don't remember anything."

Wei softly bit his lower lip and said, "As I said before, you are Jiang Lixue. My wife."

She widened her eyes. "Wife? So I am married?"

"...Yes."

"For how long?"

"One month."

"One month…" she mumbled. So we are just newly married.

"What is your name?"

Silence.

She wondered if he heard her. "What is your name?" She spoke a little louder this time. "Also, I want to see you. It's so dark here."

Wei's heart thudded in fear and anticipation. "Switch on the lights, Mingshen."

In the next moment, the lights turned on. Lihua's eyelashes fluttered for a few seconds to adjust to the brightness. But when she got used to it and finally took a look at the man who said was her husband, she was utterly dumbfounded. Her mouth opened in a big O and her eyes popped out of her sockets.

Wei froze.

Did she recognize me?

The fear made the adrenaline rush inside him like crazy. His heart pounded hard. He glanced at Mingshen. He didn't respond to anything though. He was simply observing her as he squinted his gaze. Her reaction felt as if she recognized him, but it should be impossible.

Lihua tremblingly raised her hand and pointed her finger at him.

"Y-You you are…" she stammered.

A nervous gulp passed down his throat. "What?"

"You are such a Godly handsome man!" She exclaimed.

There was absolute silence after that.

Wei and to his shock, even Mingshen stared at her, speechless. But Wei was the most affected. Of course, he knew that she liked to call him a Godly handsome prince.

'Hehe, my Godly handsome prince is finally mine…'

That's what she said before she dozed off last night in his arms.

Even when they met the first time, she had said a similar thing.

'Even if God forgot to give you your voice, he compensated you with a Godly handsome face.'

"W-what?" He asked in disbelief. He thought as if his ears were ringing.

She nodded hard. "Is it even possible for God to make such a Godly handsome man? I thought they only existed in fiction!"

Lihua watched the man in amazement. Her eyes traveled his features from head to toe. Beautiful was an understatement. Even handsome was a word that failed to give him justice. His beauty was simply astounding and prince-like that only existed in fairy tales.

*Badump Badump*

H-Huh? Why is my heart beating so fast? Wait. Was my heartbeat always so loud? How can I suddenly hear them?

Is this a dream? Am I really this man's wife? Is it okay for this heavenly man to be my husband!?

She brought her palm to her chest and felt her rapidly thudding heartbeats. She dreamily looked at him with a drool forming on the side of her lips.

"I think I am in love…"
