Li Chengyuan gripped his cane tightly. Suddenly, he pulled his phone out of his pocket, frantically trying to call Lin Zhixia.

I kept entering the wrong password several times, and the more anxious I got, the more mistakes I made.

The phone screen displayed a message saying that if I made another mistake, I would have to lock the phone.

Seeing him like this, Bai Muqing was both angry and anxious. She stepped forward and snatched the phone from Li Chengyuan's hand.

"Li Chengyuan, what's there to be upset about with a woman like that? You need to understand, you're the second young master of the Li family. You and a bankrupt heiress are from completely different worlds!"

She patted her chest, her voice rising involuntarily.

"I am your fiancée."

Li Chengyuan shook his head, raised his head, and stared at Bai Muqing with his bloodshot eyes.

"No, it's Lin Zhixia. Who are you? I don't know you at all."

Bai Muqing's face turned ashen with anger at Li Chengyuan's words, and she gripped her bag strap tightly.

"A-Yuan, you..."

Xu Yanzhou stepped forward: "Bai Muqing, I think you should notify the Li family. Ayuan might need a more authoritative doctor to treat him in his current condition, since amnesia has damaged his brain nerves."

Upon hearing Xu Yanzhou's words, Bai Muqing immediately understood.

Yes, A-Yuan has amnesia now; he doesn't remember anyone except Lin Zhixia.

Her expression gradually improved, and she took her phone out of her bag.

"Yes, yes, the most important task now is to help A-Yuan regain his memories."

He'll realize then that a woman like Lin Zhixia isn't worth his heartbreak at all. After losing his memory, his entire worldview has been reshaped.

This is not how he was originally.

Bai Muqing and Xu Yanzhou took the person back to the hospital, and then called the Li family. The Li family patriarch and Li Jingchuan arrived at the hospital within twenty minutes of receiving the news.

And they brought the best medical team with them.

When Mr. Li saw his once perfectly healthy grandson reduced to this state, his fingers trembled uncontrollably.

His calloused fingers gently stroked Li Chengyuan's gaunt face, his voice trembling.

"Ah Yuan, my dear grandson, what happened to you?!"

Bai Muqing covered her mouth and sobbed.

"It's all because of Lin Zhixia. If Lin Zhixia hadn't lied to Ayuan for so long, if she hadn't deliberately hidden Ayuan's whereabouts, he wouldn't have suffered outside for so long."

"Right now, all he can think about is Lin Zhixia."

Upon hearing this, the heartache on Master Li's face immediately turned into anger, and the oppressive aura of a superior instantly poured out from his body.

"Fine... fine, Lin Zhixia! I told her to bring my grandson back within three days, and instead, she just vanished into thin air! Investigate! Investigate immediately! Dig three feet into the ground and find out! I want to see just how much guts she has to treat the heir of the Li family like a dog!"

"Cough cough cough! Grandpa, you can't say that." Li Jingchuan clenched his fist slightly and reminded him in a low voice.

Upon hearing Li Jingchuan's words, Master Li finally realized what was happening.

"Hey, Jingchuan, hurry up and call the doctor over to take a look at your brother."

Li Jingchuan called in the entire medical team and began to conduct a highly professional examination on Li Chengyuan. Li Chengyuan did not resist and remained as quiet as a piece of wood.

His eyes were so empty, as if his soul had been ripped out, which was worrying to see.

Seeing him like this, Master Li sighed helplessly and with heartache, then turned and walked out of the ward, with Bai Muqing following him out.

"Grandpa Li, don't be too anxious. Ayuan was just deceived by Lin Zhixia for a while. He'll be fine once he regains his memory. Before, Lin Zhixia was just lying to him."

"It's normal that A-Yuan can't accept it all at once after being used by her for so long."

Master Li snorted coldly and slammed his cane heavily onto the ground.

"That Lin Zhixia is absolutely outrageous! She dared to commit a hit-and-run and hid the person for so long!"

It's a good thing he had even considered letting her date A Yuan, thinking that Lin Zhixia's personality should be able to keep A Yuan in check.

He knew his grandson's personality all too well.

Someone who has always acted unconventionally and never cared about emotions could one day be tormented by emotions into becoming this inhuman and ghostly state.

He didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Taking the opportunity, Bai Muqing said, "Grandpa Li, this Lin Zhixia is really too hateful. I think we should arrest her as soon as possible and then call the police to deal with it."

"After she took A-Yuan away, she treated him like a cash cow, making him work desperately. He even incurred a lot of online debt and ended up working as a car washer and a designated driver. A while ago, in order to earn money for Lin Zhixia, he went to race with someone and was arrested and taken to the police station."

"I heard she even worked as a high-risk laborer in a villa complex owned by the Li family. At such a high altitude, Lin Zhixia really doesn't value A-Yuan's life!"

Upon hearing this, Master Li clutched his chest, nearly losing his balance, his face alternating between pale and flushed.

"This...this Lin Zhixia, how dare she treat my grandson like this! I'll sue her until she's rotten to the bone! Contact the company's lawyer immediately, gather evidence, and prosecute Lin Zhixia for hit-and-run and intentional assault!"

A faint smile appeared on Bai Muqing's lips.

"Leave this matter to me."

Master Li turned his head and glanced at Li Chengyuan, who was undergoing an examination, his brows furrowed.

"Let Jingchuan talk to Ayuan here. Ayuan has always listened to his brother."

Li Jingchuan stood by the hospital bed, watching Li Chengyuan finish his examination, especially noting the injury on his hand. He figured Li Chengyuan must have hurt himself because he couldn't accept the truth.

He stepped forward and patted Li Chengyuan on the shoulder.

"Ah Yuan, this may not be a bad thing for you. At least you know how to love someone now."

"Brother...she...she wouldn't lie to me, right?" Li Chengyuan turned his head stiffly and slowly, his eyes red-rimmed, looking at Li Jingchuan with a dejected expression. His voice was hoarse like rough paper. "She was taking care of Xiaobao at the Li family's old house before. You have her phone number, can you call her and ask her for me?"

"Ah Yuan..." Seeing his absent-minded appearance, completely unlike the spirited second young master of the Li family he used to be, Li Jingchuan said, "Calm down a bit. Let's discuss this matter again after you've recovered, okay?"

"Brother, call her for me now. I tried calling her earlier, but her phone was always busy."

Li Jingchuan knew without a doubt: "She clearly blocked you. Think about it carefully. The truth has already been revealed. If she stays, she will face legal consequences. If you were in her shoes, wouldn't you run away?"
