It was wishful thinking on Ji Syaoran's part if he really thought that he'd be able to lie to Ru. Her intimidating eyes were enough to make him succumb before her.
"Aiyo! Stop staring. I'll tell you." Ji Syaoran darted his eyes around to see if anyone was around and whispered, "Bro doesn't have a migraine history. I promise he doesn't. But..."
"Keep going," drawled Ru.
"It's a secret but bro doesn't remember much of his childhood. His memories are distorted," sighed Ji Syaoran. Seeing Ru's perplexed face, he added, "It's not that we never tried reminding him. It's just that... He'd almost died with a brain stroke. The doctors said we shouldn't force him to remember anything. Our family is in a mess for years just to keep him alive."
Ru was stunned for a minute. Memory distortion? Almost died?
"How much did he forget?" Ru asked curiously.
"Enough to draw a line between himself and his family." Ji Syaoran replied with a heavy heart.
