The old man was really worried. His son and daughter-in-law died early. He had already experienced the tragedy of losing young loved ones, which was really afflictive. His heart still ached for that until now, and he didn’t want to experience that feeling again.

Xia Yu really wanted to tell him everything as he asked her, while for his safety, Xia Yu had to refrain from that. “Mr. Zhou, the only thing I know is that Zhou Yan is a good guy who is willing to help others. I also feel so sorry for his unexpected accident which is not what I want to see. Zhou Jiamin, who was mentioned by the policemen, is now in charge of Zeng Group, and I really have never thought that there is something unpleasant between her and Zhou Yan. Of course, the words of the policemen also make sense. She was the last person Zhou Yan saw before the accident. She is somewhat suspectable. Please don’t worry. Just wait for the investigation results of the police.”

“It seems to be the only way.” Since Xia Yu said so, it was not good for Zhou Yi to continue asking. After thanking Xia Yu with some words, he went back to the ward to accompany Zhou Yan, and Xia Yu drove back to her home.

Facts proved that Xia Yu was right to be cautious. Shortly after she left, a recording of their conversation was placed in front of Li Tianci and Zhou Jiamin.

“I’ve said that we should not have contact with that guy but just kill him directly! Now even the police have been alarmed. Fortunately, he has lost his memory.” Li Tianci kept walking around the room.

He really underestimated the persistence of that bookworm before. He didn’t expect Zhou Yan to find out the clues. But with his loss of memory, it was all over.

But Zhou Jiamin was the suspect in the case of Zhou Yan this time, so they should be careful then. It would be bad if they followed up those clues and found out something else out of this case. It seemed that they should find a scapegoat for Zhou Jiamin.

“Although he lost his memory, you really think Xia Yu doesn’t know anything?” Zhou Jiamin did not fully believe Xia Yu’s words. Zhou Yan had mentioned Ningjing in front of her more than once. Didn’t she suspect them with her wisdom?

“It’s hard to say.” Although there was no evidence to prove that Xia Yu knew it, after all, Li Tianci had been in the underworld for so many years, so he would not treat it lightly naturally. “But she is protected by Shen Yan so well. It’s really not easy to do anything to her.”

“Don’t you think Shen Yan will know it as well if she knows it?” Zhou Jiamin was worried about more than these. If Shen Family knew it, it couldn’t be hidden anymore.

“Then what should we do?” Li Tianci was also anxious then, as it was a matter of life.

“Get ready to retreat.” Zeng Group was under their control, anyhow. Even if they couldn’t transfer all their assets in a short period of time, they could transfer as many assets as they could.

“That’s the only way. Let’s act separately.” Li Tianci did not hesitate, striding out.

Shen Mo was also busy. Zeng Ziqiang and Li Tianci killed Ningjing, and they had threatened him for so many years. He was forced to sign a number of unequal contracts with Zeng Group as the eldest Mister of Shen Family.

The rapid development of Zeng Group was inseparable from Shen Mo’s contribution. Shen Mo had been tolerating over these years, and he couldn’t bear them anymore. He could finally settle those grudges between them this time.

He had ordered Zhang Hanyu to keep an eye on Zeng Group and stop them as long as there was a large amount of money flowing out. It was impossible for him to let them take the money away after they had bullied him for so many years.

Zhang Hanyu really had succeeded in carrying out Shen Mo’s assignment, intercepting all the money Li Tianci was going to transfer. By the time Li Tianci found out that, they had transferred several hundred million yuan.

Then Shen Mo made a phone call as things were almost done. A deputy general manager of Zeng Group went to the Public Security Bureau to report the case soon, saying that there was something strange about Zeng Ziqiang’s death and taking out the relevant evidence.

Zeng Ziqiang was a well-known celebrity, so the police took it seriously, setting up a special group for the case overnight. Just at this time, Madame Zeng also went to the Public Security Bureau, taking out the video of the bar where her daughter had the accident, which clearly recorded that Ahai, a subordinate of Li Tianci, mixed Zeng Mina’s wine with drugs.

All the evidence pointed to Li Tianci and Zhou Jiamin, so the police decided to monitor them closely. When the police got the irrefutable evidence, they would be caught at once.

Two days later, Zhou Yan was discharged from the hospital with a trace of fatigue on his face. He offered to go to the clinic as soon as he came back, while Wanru just wanted him to go home and rest. However, he didn’t listen to her.

As soon as he returned to the clinic, his assistant gave Zhou Yan an invitation card. It was a wine party at 8 o’clock in the evening.

“How about declining it? You just came back, so just have a good rest at night. What’s more, you lost your memory. You will meet a lot of acquaintances at the party, and I am afraid that I don’t know some of them.” Wanru deemed that it was unnecessary to attend the wine party, of course, for the sake of him.

Zhou Yan walked to the desk and sat down behind it. He looked at Wanru and said, “I’ll go to this party. Don’t decline it. It is a good opportunity for me to get more familiar with the people in my previous social circle.”

Wanru finally failed to persuade him about the matter of the wine party, so she had to let Xia Yu help her take care of Cheng Xi. She just went to the party with Zhou Yan. If something happened to him at the wine party, she could alleviate the situation in time.

At eight o’clock, they arrived at the location of the wine party. The party was held on a ship. Looking at the handsome guys and beauties in magnificent clothes as well as the mellow wine and delicate food, Wanru thought that it seemed that she would never fit in with the select society.

Zhou Yan was as popular as before, and he was surrounded by several people after a short while. Some of them looked familiar, while the others were strangers to Wanru totally, so she could not help Zhou Yan much. Her heart was in her mouth all the time, and she just feared that they would find something strange about Zhou Yan.

After all, Zhou Yan had a different job from ordinary people. If the words got out about his memory loss, his clinic would be greatly affected. While a few minutes later, Zhou Yan talked happily with those people. He didn’t look like a man who had lost his memory at all. Wanru then got relieved.

Seeing that there were some people dancing in the dance, an idea flashed through her mind, and Wanru wanted to invite Zhou Yan to dance. But she didn’t speak to him for the time being as she saw that he was chatting happily with those people. She intended to invite him after those people left.

But she did not expect someone else to act more quickly than her.

“Doctor Zhou, may I have a dance with you?” It was a young woman who spoke. Every part of her body looked so delicate, whether it was her features or her dress. The light pink bubble skirt made her more lovely and filled with the atmosphere of youth.

Wanru knew this woman. She was the youngest daughter of Qu Family. She was Qu Sihan, who was also a student of medicine. Wanru knew that she adored Zhou Yan as early as before, and she didn’t shy away from expressing her love. But unfortunately, Zhou Yan only loved Ningjing in his mind, and he couldn’t fall in love with anyone else.

While the girl’s feelings for Zhou Yan were not affected by that. Of course, there were many girls who liked Zhou Yan, while she was the boldest one. Although she had been rejected so many times, she still pestered Zhou Yan all the time. But Wanru didn’t fear that this girl would find out Zhou Yan’s secret, as Zhou Yan would directly refuse an invitation like this.

While today, instead of saying no, he said yes.

At that moment, there seemed to be mixed feelings in Wanru’s heart. She looked at them leaving with shocked eyes. Then Zhou Yan’s hand took Qu Sihan’s hand, and they just walked into the dance floor.

Wanru’s heart constantly ached inexplicably. However, she kept looking at the man and the lady on the dance floor no matter how painful she felt. At the end of the dance, Qu Sihan walked along at Zhou Yan’s side happily with her little face looking so delicate, moving, and charming, just like the peach blossom. She glanced at Wanru with some complacency and provocation in her eyes.

Wanru almost laughed because of anger. She looked away from Qu Sihan and looked at Zhou Yan then. She walked to Zhou Yan and took his arm, saying softly, “Zhou Yan, I also want to dance.”

Fortunately, Zhou Yan did not refuse her. Otherwise, her heart would have ached so badly.

Zhou Yan put his arm around Wanru’s waist gently. They were so close. Looking at his face deeply, Wanru suddenly felt that he was very strange.

“You never agreed to dance with other women before.” Wanru said in a soft voice with some grievances and sadness.

Zhou Yan’s eyes flickered. He said sorry to her after a while, and then he added, “I forgot it!”

Yeah! He forgot it. He forgot all his memories of the past.

After that, both of them kept silent until the end of the party.

“Wanru, did you and Zhou Yan have a quarrel?” The next day, Xia Yu went to Zhou Yan’s clinic. Wanru looked listless, while Zhou Yan looked sulky. They just ignored each other. Seeing this, Xia Yu couldn’t help asking.

Although Zhou Yan could not remember the past after he lost his memory, Wanru still took care of him carefully, and his grandpa told him that he had a good relationship with Wanru before, so he regarded Wanru as a friend naturally. Although their relationship was not as good as it used to be, it was not so bad as it was now.

Wanru was stunned. Then she smiled and said, “We didn’t have a quarrel.”

“Really?” Xia Yu didn’t seem to believe it.

Xia Yu’s words directly cut Wanru to the quick. Wanru’s smile became stiff on her lips, and she answered after a long while, “It’s work time now. How can I chat casually?”

Her words sounded so flawless and reasonable. Xia Yu scratched her head, not saying anything then. She might believe her words for the moment. Then she walked to the bathroom.

After that, Wanru walked out of the tearoom and went back to the office with two cups, a cup of black coffee and a cup of lemonade. She put the cup of black coffee on Zhou Yan’s desk. He looked up to say thank you to Wanru, and Wanru said, “You’re welcome.”

Then Wanru walked back to her seat, staring at the computer with her fingers flicking on the keyboard quickly. She was thinking that she should finish the work at hand before going off work.

Xia Yu saw everything with her own eyes, hiding in the dark, so she was more sure that something must have happened between them. She walked into Zhou Yan’s office as if nothing had happened.

Seeing her come in, Zhou Yan pulled her to the sofa to sit down quickly and said to her excitedly, “Xia Yu, after you told me something about Ningjing, I went back to flip through the photo album and saw the photos of me and Ningjing. I really thought of a lot of things then. Just tell me some more things which were impressive to me before. It really helps me a lot.”

“Really? That’s great.” Seeing that he was recovering his memory, Xia Yu was also very excited. She pointed at Wanru who was sitting outside the door and asked Zhou Yan, “Do you remember how Wanru came here to work?”
