Chapter 6: Parental Home Visit

Since then, the doctor came every day and used various methods to test her condition.
Having learned her lesson after being injected with sedatives for the first time, she actively answered every question from the doctor. This lasted for half a month before she was finally free from it.
As for that terrifying man, she shared the same bed with him every night, even though their hearts were miles apart.
She knew very well at what time he returned to the room at night, the time he went to bed, and the time he left in the morning. But it wasn’t because she was concerned, but because she was afraid, so much so that she couldn’t sleep. Other than being afraid of him, she was also afraid of the photo with a bright smile on the bedside table.
She had come to terms with the reality the morning that he had stood and looked coldy to the side. He wouldn’t like her, and was even intentionally torturing her, as though he wanted to see her in pain.
He came back at noon on this day. Mr. Smith announced to him that she was normal, or at least she had not been seen to have any symptoms of mental illness now.
He was expressionless, and merely raised his hand to get someone to send the doctor away. Then, he got up and put on his jacket, clasped the diamond cufflinks elegantly, and walked away without even looking at her.
Seeing that he was leaving again, she quickly caught up and said, “Wait…”
He stopped suddenly, and she almost hit his back. His cold and sharp eyes looked over and she flinched a little. Grabbing her skirt subconsciously, she timidly met his eyes before she finally gathered the courage and told him, “I… I would like to visit my parental home.”
His hawkish eyes were so sharp it was as if they could read what was on her mind, and he left without saying anything.
She didn’t know whether he had agreed or not, but Tang Xin clearly remembered that he hadn’t imposed any restrictions on her movement since moving in half a month ago. The reason why she raised the question only now was because she had been a “patient” in everyone’s eyes until today.
So, it should be okay?
…
After asking the driver to send her down the hill, Tang Xin sent him away and bought things on the street before getting a taxi to the Tang residence.
Autumn Garden, the third villa on the left of the Tang residence, which belonged to her family, was already empty.
The housekeeper of the Tang family told her that her father had been reassigned to South Africa to take over the new company the following day after her wedding. Even her stepmother and younger brother had moved there and might not come back.
Tang Xin was at a loss standing in the empty house, and the loneliness in her heart was amplified.
It turned out that she was still alone in the end.
In her memory, her mother was crazy, so she was also being treated as a lunatic and had been thrown into a mental hospital. Later on, her mother had died and her dad had brought her home. Although they had never been close, he was still her family member…
Had she been forgotten?
She must have just been forgotten!
Yes, just forgotten, not forsaken!
She looked down at all the gifts in her hands.
Actually, visiting her parental home was just an excuse to get out of Star Garden for some fresh air, but she had still put in effort, otherwise she wouldn’t have personally chosen so many gifts.
She wasn’t close to anyone in the family, and her cousins all kept a distance from her because she was sick.
It seemed that she had bought the gifts for nothing.
With a brief sigh, she turned and left, dejected.
As she walked out of the main entrance of the Tang residence, she happened to meet Tang Lingfeng, the current president of Tang Enterprise and also the man she should address as “Second Brother”. The expensive Lamborghini drove over slowly as she hurriedly walked past with her head down.
But…
“Wait a minute!” The car stopped behind her.
