Wandering aimlessly on the main road, lost in thought, she didn't notice the traffic light and was hit by a car.
When Shen Yue entered this body, the original owner had already been in a coma for half a year.
"Do you feel unwell anywhere else? How does your body feel?"
The male doctor in front of her spoke gently. Shen Yue, her face pale, blinked her long eyelashes weakly.
"Doctor, I... I don't remember anything..."
The male doctor looked at the woman before him. Her features were so beautiful that even other women wouldn't feel jealous.
Now, with her pale face and a look of helplessness, saying she remembered nothing, it evoked even more pity in the male doctor's heart.
"This is normal. It's a side effect of your concussion. Don't worry, stay here for a few more days of observation. If you still don't remember anything, it might take some time."
Considering the severity of the car accident, the fact that she was alive and awake was already a great fortune. Furthermore, the male doctor recalled that this woman seemed to have been pregnant before, yet no one had come to visit her so far. This made the male doctor's tone even gentler.
Shen Yue nodded with difficulty, "Thank you, Doctor."
She was truly a very polite person and so good-looking. To have woken up was a great fortune amidst misfortune. After checking all her bodily responses, the male doctor told Shen Yue to rest more, as her body was still weak.

Xie Qinsheng received the news that Shen Yue had woken up, but he showed no reaction.
To him, it would have been more liberating if that woman had died. Otherwise, once she recovered, she would start causing trouble again.
Shen Yue's car accident that night was something he hadn't foreseen. After all, she had been with him for a while, though things had ended rather unpleasantly.
In fact, if that woman had been more obedient and didn't covet things that didn't belong to her, he wouldn't have been so ruthless.
Later, someone informed him that Shen Yue had been in a car accident.
The doctor said the chances of her waking up were slim, and she had lost the child in her womb.
Xie Qinsheng felt even less moved by the child. He didn't even know if the child in her womb was his. Regardless of whether it was his or not, Xie Qinsheng would never acknowledge that child no matter what.
Xie Qinsheng didn't go to see her, but he did pay her medical expenses. After all, she had been his lover once. In this way, it could be considered the utmost kindness.
He himself hadn't expected Shen Yue to be able to wake up.
Thinking of the woman's restless, vain nature, he closed the file and rubbed his temples.

The afternoon sunlight streamed through the glass window into the plainly colored hospital room. The faint scent of disinfectant in the air mingled with the strong fragrance of lilies by the bedside, like a unique aroma of a life's final flare-up before fading away.
The woman sitting by the hospital bed lowered her head slightly. Her butterfly-wing-like dark eyelashes cast two shadows on her lower eyelids. A few strands of semi-curled wisps of hair gently brushed against her fair, jade-like cheeks. The soft golden sunlight spilled down, creating an illusion of serene and peaceful years.
As Xie Qinsheng pushed open the door, he saw this scene, which was vastly different from what he had imagined.
He stood frozen at the doorway, his long, dark eyes gazing without blinking at the woman who was lowering her head to peel an apple. From her swan-like snow-white neck, half-hidden by her black hair, to her slender fingers holding a small knife, it was as if he were admiring a tranquil and elegant portrait. All surroundings faded into muted colors, with only her radiating brilliance.
Xie Qinsheng had never seen Shen Yue so quiet.
He softly closed the door and called out in his magnetic voice, "Shen Yue."
Shen Yue was startled by his voice. Her fingertips trembled, and the long apple peel she had been peeling broke. She slowly looked up, her eyes, slightly widened in confusion, were as round and bright as a little deer's.
She blinked, her long eyelashes slowly falling and then rising, her voice tinged with hesitation, "Are you?"
Her clean and clear voice rang out like the tinkling of pearls falling on ice.
Xie Qinsheng slowly blinked. The mixed light and shadow and the chaotic dust dispersed, revealing the woman's slightly sorrowful and refined eyes clearly.
In his ears, it seemed to echo the doctor's words.
"The patient suffered a severe blow to the head. When she woke up, she had amnesia. We questioned her carefully, and it seems she has forgotten everything, remembering nothing at all."
Hearing this news, Xie Qinsheng inwardly sneered, not believing it at all. He thought it was just another trick the woman was playing. However, when he truly met her clean and pure eyes, he finally believed that she genuinely remembered nothing.
Xie Qinsheng pursed his thin lips, a gentle smile appearing on his handsome face, utterly false. "I am a friend of yours. I heard you woke up, so I came to see you."
The woman looked a little confused. The man before her was radiating an air of nobility. He was very tall, at least 1.9 meters, and had an imposing appearance. However, wearing glasses softened his dangerous aura, making him appear more gentle and amorous.
He was a man who looked perfect on the outside. Shen Yue hadn't expected to know such an outstanding-looking man.
Shen Yue smiled bashfully, her eyes as warm and gentle as water. "I'm sorry, I have amnesia and don't remember anything from before. Could you introduce yourself again?"
"My name is Xie Qinsheng."
The woman lying on the hospital bed had a pale face. Having lost her memory, she seemed like a different person. Her eyes lacked the previous madness and infatuation with him; instead, there was only a faint estrangement towards a stranger.
Xie Qinsheng met the doctor treating Shen Yue.
The male doctor was unaware of what Shen Yue had been through, but he responsibly informed him that apart from her body being weak from prolonged bed rest and her amnesia, and having only woken up recently, it would be best for her to remain in the hospital for further observation for a few more days.
Xie Qinsheng had no objections to this. No matter how approachable he appeared on the surface, it couldn't conceal his cold heart and indifference. He considered what he had done to be quite good already. This woman had been by his side for so long and had benefited considerably. Although things had ended unpleasantly, that was in the past. Now that she had recovered, they were no longer indebted to each other.
[He's leaving.]
Shen Yue merely pursed her lips and smiled. The light points emanating from her body became even more dazzling, like the scorching sun in midsummer hanging high in the sky, brilliant and intense, dazzling and piercing to the eyes.
System: [How outrageous! He still has the nerve to show up!]
[I can see he seems to dislike me a lot. It's normal not to have any feelings.] Shen Yue picked up an apple slice with a toothpick and put it into her mouth, chewing it slowly. The tender and juicy flesh was delicious. Her beautiful eyes couldn't help but curve into a smile.
