As Ningjing’s case was solved this time, Shen Mo could be said to be the biggest winner, who could not only be sure that Ningjing chose him rather than Zhou Yan at last but also take over Zeng Group completely with his engagement with Zeng Mina canceled.

Zhou Yan remained silent for long after seeing the news. However, he could really let it go as he finally got justice for Ningjing who had died for so many years.

In the morning, Xia Yu came to visit him, simply because the weather today was very similar to the weather of that day.

“Xia Yu, could you please accompany me to a place first?” Zhou Yan said to Xia Yu with a smile.

“Where?” Xia Yu didn’t want to be held off for too long as she was going to visit the sanatorium in the afternoon.

“To visit Ningjing’s grave with me.” Zhou Yan was thinking that no matter who Ningjing loved, as she had brought him a lot of happiness when they were together, he would rather just remember the good side of Ningjing.

It didn’t matter who she chose finally at all for at least they were still friends, weren’t they?

“Well, okay!” Actually, Xia Yu had early wanted to visit the good girl who was very good at Nihonese dishes. Though they had never met before, she had a quiet, pretty, and versatile impression of her in her mind through the depictions of Shen Yan, Zhou Yan, Shen Mo, and others.

But after they went up the hill, Xia Yu was surprised to find that Shen Mo and Shen Yan were also there, visiting Ningjing’s grave.

Seeing Zhou Yan, Shen Mo’s lips slightly cocked. He reached out his hand to Zhou Yan. “Though your goal was to put me into prison when sparing no effort to investigate the case in those days, I should still thank you for finally solving the case.”

Zhou Yan, who was still as mild-mannered as ever, shook Shen Mo’s hand gently. “No need to thank me. I did that not for you.” Turning back to look at Ningjing’s gravestone, he continued, “But for her.”

“But the man she loved is me.” Though that was what Shen Mo always believed, this time he spoke it out even more rightfully.

“It’s enough that I love her.” Zhou Yan always looked down upon Shen Mo in his mind, since he believed that Shen Mo was not qualified to talk about love.

It was so typical of them to stand against each other once they met.

Shen Yan dragged Xia Yu aside after observing both of them several times and asked, “He is said to have lost his memory, isn’t he?” But given his fierce argument with Shen Mo just now, it seemed not to be true.

“Mr. Zhou told him some stories in the past, as well as some diaries and photos, so these days he has recovered a part of his memory.” Xia Yu glanced at them, only to find them still quarreling and uttering something alternatively while no one conceded.

“No wonder he is here to visit Ningjing. Why are you here with him?” Shen Yan remembered that when he called her, Xia Yu said she had something important to deal with today, and if he had nothing emergent, she would talk about it with him in the evening.

This was what she said was important?

“Originally, I promised Zhou Yan to help him recover his memory today, but he insisted on coming to visit Ningjing first. I could only agree, couldn’t I?” Xia Yu also didn’t expect Shen Mo to be here. Otherwise, she would have asked Zhou Yan to come another day.

“Just forget about it. They have been like this for years. I hope this is the last time.” Shen Yan was glad to just chat with Xia Yu beside them, letting them argue to their hearts’ content.

They came up to Xia Yu and Shen Yan after they exhausted their energy. After presenting flowers and bowing to Ningjing, Xia Yu hurriedly carried Zhou Yan away.

She did not want to see Zhou Yan quarrel with Shen Mo again at all. But watching their backs, Shen Mo suddenly felt that Xia Yu and Zhou Yan were actually a good match.

“Lad, I warn you now. Xia Yu and Zhou Yan are too intimate. Be careful.” Shen Mo learned that lesson from the past. He regarded Zhou Yan as his good friend before, but he didn’t anticipate that this bastard actually coveted his girlfriend.

“Xia Yu is just trying to help him recover his memory since Zhou Yan has lost his memory now.” Shen Mo still had psychological scars now because the event in those days affected him too much. Seeing his look of disbelief, Shen Yan continued his explanation and said, “Zhou Yan has a girlfriend now. She’s intimate with Xia Yu. Otherwise, Xia Yu wouldn’t care so much about him.”

“Girlfriend? Look at him. Who’s so inexperienced to be attracted by him?” Shen Mo didn’t hesitate to attack Zhou Yan verbally, demeaning him to nothing.

“Brother, you only look so unserious in front of Zhou Yan.” Shen Yan was amused at what Shen Mo said. Was Zhou Yan really as terrible as he said? If it was true, they wouldn’t have become friends before. As the saying went, birds of a feather flocked together.

“Really?” Shen Mo said with a smile as well. But anyway, he was really so curious about who Zhou Yan was in love with. “You just said that he had a girlfriend now, right?”

“Yes, and you know her. It’s Zhang Hanyu’s ex-wife, Wanru.” Finally, he could not help asking him. Shen Yan repressed his laugh and said.

“What?” What a bastard! He was really good at poaching the girlfriends of those he was familiar with. He grabbed Shen Mo’s girlfriend at first, and now his target was Zhang Hanyu’s ex-wife. Why didn’t Li Tianci bludgeon him to death before? Otherwise, he would not have poached others’ girlfriends.

Shen Mo only snorted gently with a sense of scorn after hearing what Shen Yan said.

Shen Yan was sapient enough to figure out what Shen Mo was thinking about naturally. Zhou Yan was not to blame for chasing after Wanru. He had the right to do that as Zhang Hanyu had been divorced from her for so long.

“Brother, is Uncle Ning really back?” Shen Yan changed the topic sensibly.

“Yeah. Old Madame said that a grand birthday banquet would be held for him since he had been wronged for years. You should announce the news to Xia Yu. Don’t forget it.” Xia Yu could be said to be indispensable to the matter this time.

Shen Mo had considered holding a banquet to thank her. But Uncle Ning’s birthday was around the corner, and Old Madame was going to celebrate it grandly. In addition, he just took over Zeng Group with a lot of things to deal with, so he had no choice but to put off the banquet for her.

“I won’t forget it.” Shen Yan replied with a smile.

Xia Yu and Zhou Yan had gone down the hill. Zhou Yan kept scolding Shen Mo while driving. “That guy is really ungrateful. Ningjing was willing to die for him, but he was willing to be threatened by Zeng Ziqiang and Li Tianci just to escape from being sued. Now he even dared to say that Ningjing loved him in front of her gravestone. Ningjing was really all wet.”

Only Shen Mo could make him so angry. As he was still driving, Xia Yu tried to comfort him aside for she was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions. She said, “He just took a priority as he grew up with Ningjing. If you had known each other at the same time, it still remains a mystery who Ningjing would have chosen.”

“Xia Yu, you’re absolutely right. If he had gone to Nihon several days later before, I would have married Ningjing officially.” Zhou Yan always thought that Ningjing had chosen Shen Mo out of gratitude, as Shen Mo was the First Young Master of Shen Family, which had conferred benefits to Ning Family. Even now he held the view as well.

“Ningjing is indeed a good girl. No wonder you both keep thinking about her until now. But Zhou Yan, a dead person cannot come back to life again. Just cherish those who are around you now.” Xia Yu felt it necessary to remind Zhou Yan to take care of Wanru’s feelings.

“I just cannot stand Shen Mo being extremely arrogant, so I couldn’t help nagging by a few words. Just forget it after hearing this and don’t tell Wanru. And don’t even tell Cheng Xi.” That boy was so canny that Zhou Yan couldn’t help laughing at the thought of him.

“It depends on how you behave.” Seeing this, Xia Yu felt glad for Wanru. Zhou Yan not only accepted Cheng Xi but also liked him very much. She believed that they would be very happy in the future.

Thinking about this, Xia Yu thought of another old friend, Zhang Hanyu, inevitably. Xia Yu would rather believe that he always took his career and friends first than that he didn’t have an attachment to Wanru.

This was a far cry from Wanru’s constant desire to get her husband to pay attention to her, so they ended up with a tragedy. Xia Yu felt sorry for them, but on the other hand, she thought that this kind of result might be the best for them.

The car, after moving on for a while, was finally parked at the place where they had their dinner after visiting the sanatorium last time.

“Zhou Yan, you remember it?” Unexpectedly, he drove the car here directly without being told by Xia Yu about the address.

Seeing that Xia Yu looked at him surprisedly, Zhou Yan touched his nose and said awkwardly, “No, it’s just a subconscious action. We really had a meal here last time?”

Even a subconscious action could make Xia Yu so excited. She kept nodding her head. “Yep, right here. Later, you should order. I want to eat the dishes we had last time.”

“It’s too hard for me.” Feeling that it was a little difficult, Zhou Yan only waved his hand.

“Have a try and you may remember it.” Xia Yu encouraged him aside.

Zhou Yan could not refuse Xia Yu, so he had to order. Seeing the dishes that he ordered, Xia Yu exclaimed again, “Zhou Yan, I can assure you that there is hope for your recovery!”

“So, did I order the right ones?” Zhou Yan was very happy, too.

Xia Yu kept nodding her head excitedly in a better mood. She kept talking to Zhou Yan while eating, and even on the way to the sanatorium, she was still jabbering away.

“Last time on the way there, you didn’t talk so much.” Zhou Yan said with a smile.

“You remember it?” Xia Yu asked.

“It has nothing to do with remembering it. It’s not your personality. I seem to have a blurry impression. That day you also sat beside me and stared out of the window all the time. It was cloudy and seemed to be about to rain, just like today. The only difference is that it was still quite cool at that time while it is much hotter now.”

“Right. That’s it!” Xia Yu stared at Zhou Yan tensely.

“Then we entered the sanatorium, and it was Director Hu who received us.” Looking at the high wall of the sanatorium, Zhou Yan remembered a lot.

That day was the first time Xia Yu had come to some places like this, and she asked many amusing questions. Later, nobody knew how Xia Yu walked to the intensive care area and was mistaken as a patient by a male nurse.

But for a female patient who suddenly went crazy and grabbed the medicine running out later, Xia Yu might have been locked up. It was at this time that Xia Yu met Aunt Jiang for the first time.

Her condition was so bad that it even shocked Xia Yu, and that was why she was determined to get to the bottom of it to get justice for Ningjing and Aunt Jiang.

“Let’s go and visit Aunt Jiang.” Zhou Yan had a lot of mixed feelings in his heart. For that incident, he almost lost his life. Aunt Jiang was also tortured to be half-dead.

Now no one would come to persecute Aunt Jiang. He hoped that she could recover as soon as possible to get reunited with her families.

“Well, okay!” Xia Yu and Zhou Yan looked at each other and then went inside side by side.
