"So...Let me get this straight. You lost your memories, all of them?" Lei Xing skeptically asked with knit eyebrows.

Tung Mei slowly nodded and haphazardly explained, "Ahhh, it appears so... my illness this time was...particularly severe. I was told I nearly died, um... well, the physicians called it a miracle I survived."

"Really?" Lei Xing responded with the same skeptical tone. 

Tung Mei nodded, "Yes. If not for Your majesty's care, I would have already met my end. Thank you for saving my life." She finished with a polite bow, her body quite tense. With Lei Xing's tone, it felt more like an interrogation than a concerned "friend's" curiosity.
