My Son is a Transmigrated Prince

Chapter 35

Song Yuan inadvertently looked down and noticed a bag in Rong Heng’s grasp. It was from the People’s Hospital in this city and looked to be a prescription list.

The two could already be considered friends, so Song Yuan wouldn’t be stingy with her concern. She pointed to the prescription list and asked, “Is someone in your family sick?”

Rong Heng was frozen for a moment before he lowered his head to look at the prescription in his hand. He smiled and shook his head. “Not a family member. It’s for me.”

It was Song Yuan’s turn to be stunned. She let out an “ah” and followed up with, “You’re sick? You don’t seem like a patient.”

She was telling the truth; she thought this Mr. Xie didn’t look like a patient. He clearly looked very healthy.

“I’m not really sick.” Rong Heng seemed to be afraid of disturbing others. He couldn’t help lowering his voice with a slight smile on his face. “I had an accident this year, and narrowly escaped death. I suffered a serious injury and nearly died. Luckily, some kind-hearted people sent me to the hospital, and I was brought back from the brink of death. But it might be that I suffered a brain injury; I can’t remember a lot of things after waking up. I came here because I heard that a specialist was here, and my family wanted me to come here to relax.”

He spoke lightly1 of his experience.

But Song Yuan felt her heart leap as she listened.

It all felt very thrilling, but for something like amnesia, it was difficult for her to believe it could happen in her life if she hadn’t experienced it herself. After all, amnesia scenarios were only seen in TV shows.

Seeing the sense of loss on Rong Heng’s gentle face, she felt sympathetic. “I can understand. Losing your memories must not feel pleasant.”

“I just feel guilty for making my family worry. After all, I forgot everything after I woke up, even my relatives. My mother suffered for a long time.” Rong Heng added, “Miss Song, it seems that in front of you, I can freely speak my mind without fearing you would laugh at me. The feeling of losing my memories is quite awful. For example, when facing my parents, I feel estranged, as though they are not related to me.”

Was that what happened with amnesia?

This was something Song Yuan couldn’t relate to. The first time she saw Rong Ting, although it felt very odd, she would feel uncomfortable when she saw Rong Ting feel uncomfortable. To like an unknown child from the bottom of her heart…this was probably the bond between a mother and child.

Song Yuan couldn’t help but comfort Rong Heng. “Mr. Xie, it’s okay. Modern medicine is so advanced; maybe it won’t take long for you to remember.”

Rong Heng chuckled. “After these few months, I’ve come to accept it. Of course, it’s best to remember, and it’s okay if I don’t, but the most important thing is to make the best of it. There are times when I think that it might not be a bad thing to forget some unhappy things.”

“It’s best if you think this way.” Seeing that Rong Heng was so open and transparent, Song Yuan didn’t continue to worry for him.

“That’s true.” Rong Heng still held the bag in his hand. He smiled and handed the bag to her. “This is a gift from a friend, but I don’t think I’ll have much use for it. I don’t know if your son is learning calligraphy, but this copybook isn’t too bad. If your son has some interest, you can let him practice with this.”
