The Overnight Chosen Wife: darling, kiss me deeper

[In this world, nothing is absolute. 

The truth can have a tiny percentage of lies, lies can hold some truth, a joke can be serious, and even reality can be an illusion. When you thought you have been living your dream all your life, and then that life suddenly turns into a near-death experience and just when you think you are going to die, the scene suddenly fades into light and you realize it was all just a dream. And you do not even know where you are.]

Hillside Hospital.

Li Lanni stared blankly as two nurses busied themselves around her, drawing her blood, taking her pulse and measuring her temperature.

A girl in a red dress stood nervously at the side, letting them do their work. A doctor shone his bright flashlight into her eyes, making her squint them closed from the sudden glaring light. Was he trying to make her blind?

Words tumbled out of their mouths, none of which she understood and they could be speaking Greek for all she cared. A nurse brought a glass of water to her. She let the nurse place the glass on her dry lips and only took two sips to soothe her parched throat. She tried to move. Her whole body ached so she slumped back.

"Are they coming back?" She asked no one in particular when the doctor and nurses made their way out. She didn't want them to come back. She was scared.

"They don't have to if you do not want them. Lanni, are you feeling okay?" The girl in red asked.

"Who are you?" Li Lanni recoiled with an alarmed expression on her face.

"I'm your  best friend." The girl explained. "My name is Ji Feifei. Tell me, does it hurt anywhere?"

Li Lanni was still taking in her words. Best friend? Those two words sounded so unfamiliar and she didn't even want to think about it.

"Where am I? What happened to me? How come I do not know you?" She finally asked a cluster of questions.

The girl called Ji Feifei let out a sigh before starting to answer. "You have been in a coma for six months. It is understandable that you are still confused. The doctors also said you might have temporary amnesia. That explains why you don't remember me."

Li Lanni stared dazedly as realisation downed on her already confused brain.She had been in a coma for so long? Now it made sense.

No wonder what she had thought was her life didn't truly feel real. It had all revolved around two scenes that seemed to be on loop. She couldn't even remember anything about them except that they were happy scenes. The last time, a different scene appeared. She couldn't recall it either. All she remembered was a loud scream, earth-shattering screeches and a crash.

She had woken up right after the crash. So it was all a dream. Two dreams and a nightmare. To be exact, she had been in coma. All that she had thought was happening was only an illusion and now she was awake.

But she didn't like it here. It was so white and so unfamiliar. She didn't know anything. It felt like she had been shoved into a different dimension and forced to believe that it was real.

Only, she knew that it was real. At least more real than the dream she had forgotten.

"Can I leave this place?"

The girl called Ji Feifei looked troubled. "I don't know... I don't think you can leave so soon. I'll ask the doctor when you will be discharged."

NOTE: I thought I should add this note. It's important.

1] I am editing the book. I might change some parts to make it better and more sensible. I just started, so if you come across tiny differences in the plot, please understand that it's because I'm editing. I will remove this part once editing is complete.

2]Beware: There are plot twists. Not too many of them though.

3] This story has two parts:

>Before the female lead regains her memory.

>After she regains her memory.

You will notice a difference in the second part. Don't worry, it's not a huge difference and the plot will not stray.

I thought I should add these points to prepare you for some of the things you will come across.

Happy reading! ❤
