Chapter 405: 404 Retrieve Memory

Translator: 549690339

Kangning Hospital, in Gu Kai’s office.

The air was suffused with a faint aroma of coffee. Gu Kai and Mo Xiuchen were each sprawling lazily in their places on a sofa.

“Xiuchen, did you come all the way here to see me? How come you didn’t bring Ranran along?”

Gu Kai looked at Mo Xiuchen, it was already the twenty-ninth day of December in the Lunar calendar, and he pitifully remained at work, unlike the man seated across him who could be at home with his wife.

Mo Xiuchen slightly curled the corners of his mouth, “Ranran went back to the Wen’s house. I’ll pick her up in a while. Aren’t you taking leave for New Year’s?”

“From your lips to God’s ears, can’t you see how busy I am? There’s no way I can rest?”

Gu Kai glanced at him disdainfully. He suspected that this guy came deliberately to make fun of him. “Last night, Ah Mu gave me a call, and he sent some photos of his mountain climbing journey. Ah Feng even sent me a video of him at a shooting range. Now, here you are to agitate me! What kind of brotherhood is this?”

The smile at the corner of Mo Xiuchen’s mouth deepened, his slender eyes narrowed, “Is that so? They both seem too idle, it’s really not nice to irritate you like this, so I didn’t let Ranran come.”

“I’d rather have Ranran come see me, than have you.”

Gu Kai took a sip of his coffee, held the cup in his palm and played with it.

“You think I’m here to see you? I have a matter to ask you.”

Mo Xiuchen said casually. Gu Kai furrowed his eyebrows and looked up at him, after a moment he asked earnestly, “What matter?”

“We had speculated before that Mo Zixuan’s memories were likely erased through deep hypnosis. I want to bring those memories back.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Kai was startled. Mo Xiuchen’s semi-narrow eyes stared intently at Mo Xiuchen, “Are you crazy? Why would you want Mo Zixuan to regain his memories? No, didn’t he say last time that he had already regained his memories? Ah Feng told me about it.”

Mo Xiuchen curled his lips coldly, “He deceived Ah Feng and Ranran. He didn’t really recover his memory. He only learned about Ranran’s background, including that Ranran is your sister, and about her current situation-he knows all of it.”

Gu Kai’s complexion changed, he blurted out, “How does he know?”

“Some of it was told to him by Xiao Wenqing, but he also found out part of it himself throughout these days. I think it’s also possible that he got some information from others.”

Mo Xiuchen, with slightly furrowed eyebrows, calmly analysed.

“Did he look for you?”

Suddenly, it occurred to Gu Kai, “That night at the Wen Family’s house, when you suddenly left, was it because Mo Zixuan looked for you?”

After he left, Ranran had been distracted.

She must have sensed Mo Xiuchen’s emotions, which caused her to be lost in a daze.

Mo Xiuchen shook his head, “That night, the one who looked for me was the old man, Mo Zixuan told Uncle Mo about Ranran’s background, and he asked me to go back.”

“Uncle Mo, what did he say, don’t tell me yet, let me guess .”

Gu Kai’s eyes turned colder. He knew what kind of person Mo Jingteng was. He wasn’t entirely certain, but he had some idea. “Did he ask you to divorce Ranran because of her health condition?”

His seemingly inquisitive words were actually said with a very affirmative tone.

Gu Kai was emotional when he said this, and his face looked rather ugly.

Mo Jingteng had been treated in their hospital for many years now. Even the last time when he had a medical emergency, it was his father who had saved him.

Had his father not told him that Mo Jingteng was poisoned, he never would have found out about Xiao Wenqing.

Now, the minute he heard about Ranran’s condition, he demanded that Xiuchen and Ranran divorce. Mo Jingteng had really gone too far.

Mo Xiuchen saw the anger in Gu Kai’s eyes, he said calmly, “I told him it was my issue and it had nothing to do with Ranran. Moreover, I told him that what Mo Zixuan heard from Xiao Wenqing was not credible. He might not totally believe what I said, but he began to suspect Mo Zixuan and has not bothered me for the time being.”

“And what about Mo Zixuan, did he look for you?”

Mo Xiuchen’s lips curled up slightly, a cold smile hung upon them, “He did look for me, but the result was the same as the old man’s. He started to doubt the person who told him, it’s not certain whether Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi can control him completely.”

The anger in Gu Kai’s heart subsided, noticing Mo Xiuchen’s indifferent expression, he knew that if Xiuchen said that this was the result, then it definitely was the result.

“This is just temporary, both Mo Zixuan and Mo Jingteng are like the pendulum of a clock, no one knows which way they’ll swing.”

“This is why I came to you. If Mo Zixuan recovers his memories, at least he won’t help Xiao Wenqing to hurt Ranran.”

A hint of an emotion flickered deep within Mo Xiuchen’s eyes, but it quickly vanished, being overshadowed by a profound darkness.

Gu Kai’s brows furrowed, he said thoughtfully, “If Mo Zixuan remembers his past, it doesn’t mean he won’t harm Ranran. On the contrary, he might compete with you for Ranran and there’s a chance something could happen. What happened outside the restroom in the restaurant last time is a perfect example.”

Mo Xiuchen’s eyes darkened even further,”I know, but compared to the harm caused by Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi, I’d rather have Mo Zixuan obsessed with Ranran. Ever since the car accident incident, I can’t seem to feel at ease. The period of calm in the recent times doesn’t mean that Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi have given up-”

In fact, it had never been calm.

Incidents had been happening one after another.

If he was alone, Mo Xiuchen would not be afraid, but now that he had Ranran, the more he cherished her, the more nervous he became.

Being in the dark while the enemy was in the light had always been the most disadvantageous position.

What he wanted to do now was to find Xiao Wenqing and Wu Tianyi as soon as possible, and it seemed that the fastest way was through Mo Zixuan.

Gu Kai looked at Mo Xiuchen with furrowed eyebrows, he understood his emotions and even admired his choice.

He didn’t mind having one more love rival or even giving Mo Zixuan a place in the company.

Right from childhood, Mo Zixuan had always been the son of an enemy to him, but now, for Ranran’s sake, he was trying to treat him like a brother.

“Xiuchen, Ranran’s memory was erased by deep hypnosis because she was young at that time… Mo Zixuan’s memory may not be completely irretrievable. If you’ve made up your mind, then ask for his opinion, and I will take care of everything else.”

“If I hadn’t made up my mind, I wouldn’t have brought it up with you; let’s consider it decided. I’ll go find him in the next few days.”

Mo Xiuchen’s tone was firm. He picked up his coffee, took a sip, and stood up. After hesitating a moment, he reminded Gu Kai, “There are very few people who know about Ranran’s origin… so, keep an eye on Shen Yuting these days. After giving it some thought, if there’s someone who would tell Mo Zixuan, she would be the most likely candidate.”

Gu Kai’s eyes flickered slightly, “Alright, I’ll keep an eye on her.”

Mo Xiuchen raised his eyebrows in amusement, “Then I’ll go pick Ranran up first. You better go do your rounds before your patients complain!”

Gu Kai laughed instead of becoming angry, “Farewell. I won’t see you out!”
