Jiao Daihu isn’t paying attention, and hits his head against the window, grinning through the pain .

“Jiao Daihu ge, are you okay?” Mage resists laughing as she asks if he’s injured .

“I’m fine!” Jiao Daihu is a bit embarra.s.sed, but he replaces his embarra.s.sment with a sly expression . “I’m just teasing you, boss . I will make sure you have a happy future . I won’t do anything unethical . Is that what you’re worried about?”

Nangong Zifei’s lips form a thin line and doesn’t talk . The car quickly disappears into the darkness of the night

The sun rises daily . It may seem like nothing is changing, but they are changing quietly…

An Chuxia’s body recovers little by little until she is well enough to be finally discharged . While steward Han and Jiang Yuan are signing her discharge papers, Jiang Yuan receives a phone call . It’s a call that would make An Chuxia collapse .

An hour ago…

It is quite efficient to get discharged since the hospital belongs to the Hans . Before An Chuxia knows it, she and Jiang Yuan are walking out, smiling, as steward Han follows them .

A week ago, they received news that Han Qilu has woken up from his coma . This made An Chuxia very happy . However, Jiang Yuan still forced her to stay in the hospital for one more week . Chuxia was afraid she was going to be left behind .

“I’ll drive the car over . ” Steward Han steps forward after getting permission from Jiang Yuan . Jiang Yuan didn’t ask Lao Chen to drive, but he drove steward Han over to pick up An Chuxia, who happens to be in a good mood .

“I told you, the food in that restaurant is really delicious . How about going there after we walk around the block?” Jiang Yuan suggests cheerfully .

An Chuxia should nod . The day after tomorrow is Jiang Yuan and Han Liuhai’s 20th wedding anniversary . The staff is already preparing for the festivities, and Han Qilu is returning that day . She heard his recovery is good, but since he’s being treated in the United States, she really doesn’t know the specifics .

It’s like Han Qilu didn’t exist . Correction, it’s like there is no connection between Han Qilu and An Chuxia . Han Qilu called occasionally, and said he was going to write home instead, but An Chuxia didn’t get a call from him . Han Qilu also called the home phone, which made An Chuxia uneasy .

But she’s afraid that she’ll be scoffed at if she told anyone about it, especially Jiang Yuan . It’s one of the reasons why she doesn’t bring his name up either .

She’s happy he’s coming home, but at the same time, his return is making her very anxious .

“Mommy, I want to go to the United States,” she suddenly says . “Since he’s been conscious, he hasn’t called me once… I… I want to go to the United States . ”

“What? He hasn’t called you? What kind of a son of a bit*h is he? Do you want to call him now?” Jiang Yuan can’t believe it .

Han Qilu hasn’t mentioned An Chuxia when she called him . She thought he’s been calling An Chuxia but didn’t want to mention it to his mother . Now that An Chuxia has mentioned it, Jiang Yuan is embarra.s.sed .

No wonder why her baby had her eyebrows knitted these past few days .

“You don’t have to call . ” An Chuxia shakes her head . “It’s ten o’clock here . And, what, it would be ** o’clock over there . It won’t be a good time to call . Actually… I’ll just surprise him . ”

“You don’t have to call . ” An Chuxia shakes her head . “It’s ten o’clock here . And, what, it would be ** o’clock over there . It won’t be a good time to call . Actually… I’ll just surprise him . ”

Surprise? Wouldn’t her sudden appearance before him be a surprise?

All of a sudden, the image of the two children kissing appears in Jiang Yuan’s head and it suddenly makes her blush . “Maybe Han Qilu wanted to give you a surprise? You didn’t use to say h.e.l.lo at all… . ”

Suddenly, Jiang Yuan’s phone vibrates in her pocket . She takes a look at it before wrinkling her brow . “Look who’s calling?”

An Chuxia looks at the mobile phone’s screen and sees Bad Kid . Her heart skips a beat .

“Aren’t you going to answer it?” Jiang Yuan smiles, disappointed that An Chuxia didn’t take the phone away from her . As soon as steward Han brings the car over, Jiang Yuan orders him to buy drinks for them from a store nearby .

An Chuxia bows her head and quietly presses the answer key . “Hi?” Her voice trembles .

She hears a pause before Han Qilu’s familiar voice comes through . “Who are you? Mom?”

An Chuxia thought he didn’t hear her, so she says in annoyance, “It’s me, An Chuxia!”

“An Chuxia? Who? Should I know you? Did you steal my mother’s phone? I warn you, you can’t afford to steal this device!” His voice over the phone is truly angry .

“Han Qilu… are you kidding me? You think this is funny?”An Chuxia is definitely aware something is wrong . But she is still holding on to a glimmer of hope .

“Do you know me?” Han Qilu says momentarily . “Are you someone I met before I lost my memory? Sorry, I can’t remember the last few months . The doctor said this is normal when there’s a head injury . I apologize, my att.i.tude is quite awful, but may I speak to my mother? I have something to tell her . ”

An Chuxia’s brain goes blank, and the mobile slips from her hand .

Jiang Yuan returns, and sees An Chuxia’s pale face and her device on the ground .

Jiang Yuan returns, and sees An Chuxia’s pale face and her device on the ground .

She runs to her baby to ask her what happened . She couldn’t care less about her phone on the ground . She’s more distressed over her future daughter-in-law .

“He… . ” An Chuxia’s tears flow freely, and the words come out incomplete . She keeps repeating: He… He… Him… .

Jiang Yuan picks up the mobile phone from the ground, realizing it’s not broken, and that the call is still connected . She rushes to answer . She is upset . “What did you say to my baby, Chuxia?!”

“What?” Han Qilu, who’s walking back and forth in the presidential suite of the hotel in the United States . “Mom, is that you? Who was the person who picked up the phone? I told her I needed to speak with you . What was that loud noise?”

“What? You’re asking me who my baby An Chuxia is?” Jiang Yuan’s voice trembles . She doesn’t realize something is wrong . She’s just upset Han Qilu couldn’t hear An Chuxia .

“He’s lost his memory… I forgot to tell you . ” An Chuxia finally completes her sentence .

Jiang Yuan is stunned . “An Chuxia, don’t tease me . He’s very normal, and he didn’t say anything about losing his memory . ”

On the other side of the phone, Han Qilu says, “Mom, I said it’s partial amnesia . I didn’t want you to worry, so I didn’t tell you . Who is this An Chuxia?”

Jiang Yuan clenches her teeth as she hears his harsh tone . Then, she hears him say, “It doesn’t matter who she is, Mother . I just wanted to announce some good news . I’ve reconciled with Mankuai, and I proposed to her . ”

“What?!!!” Jiang Yuan raises her voice to a shout . “I won’t allow it, absolutely; it’s not allowed!”

An Chuxia turns paler, apparently, overhearing Han Qilu’s words .

“Mother, I know you don’t have a good impression of her, but she has changed . We’ve reconciled, and we are good together… . ” If there was more, Jiang Yuan didn’t want to hear any more of it . She presses the End b.u.t.ton . She is breathing heavily from anger .

“What happened that you two look like you’re devastated?” Steward Han was just returning from the convenience store when he ran into Ling Hanyu . He told Hanyu that An Chuxia has been discharged . Then, they started talking about some financial matters . And when he got to the hospital’s entrance, he saw Jiang Yuan’s red face, and An Chuxia’s very pale face, weeping .

Then, they started talking about some financial matters . And when he got to the hospital’s entrance, he saw Jiang Yuan’s red face, and An Chuxia’s very pale face, weeping .

Since Xiao Mingluo’s brother, Mingyuan, is at the late-stage of his cancer, Mingluo has been helping both his father and his company affairs, and his brother . He’d given An Chuxia a call earlier that day to offer his congratulations on her discharge . Then he called Ling Hanyu who suggested they should pick up An Chuxia from the hospital instead .

But as soon as Hanyu sees them, he’s really puzzled . After the wilderness adventure, Lao Ling has finally given up on An Chuxia . He doesn’t mention An Chuxia to him . Hanyu is now considered pure and abstinent .

But in the bottom of his heart, he feels pain for An Chuxia . Seeing her cry breaks his heart as well .

Jiang Yuan said she’s angry, and she puts a hand on An Chuxia’s shoulder in silent comfort .

“How come…” Ling Hanyu is shocked . Han Qilu called him, but he didn’t say anything about having memory loss . But he distinctly recalls that Han Qilu hasn’t mentioned An Chuxia . It was the only time that he didn’t feel right being happy that Han Qilu has awoken from his coma .

Steward Han stands behind her . He says, “Xiaonainai, rest a.s.sured, his amnesia is temporary . Give him a few days to recover . I believe that you are the young master’s true love . ”

An Chuxia bites her lower lip, her expression is dull and distressed . “I want to go to the United States . ”

This time, Jiang Yuan doesn’t stop her . “I’ll go with you!” She wants to make sure An Chuxia won’t commit murder!

“You don’t need to . ” An Chuxia shakes her head . “I want to see him alone . I want to make sure he’s not fickle about forgetting me . Then I can be a.s.sured of the fact that he’s happy to be with another person . ”

Although tears are still in her eyes, she refuses to let them fall .

If he’s really fickle, then the least she can do is say hi to him and not bless his relations.h.i.+p, right?
