Chapter 315 True Feelings

Lu Jinye picked up his phone to call Xu Se, “Both you and Jian Xiaoning ,come to my home

immediately.” Xu Se frowned and asked confusedly, “What did you say?”

Lu Jinye was annoyed with having to repeat himself, “I said, bring Jian Xiaoning to my house

immediately!” “I’ve been fighting with Xiaoning recently. I might not be able to bring her. Can’t I just come

by myself?”

Lu Jinye had never spoken to him in such a serious manner before.

And these few years, Lu Jinye had rarely been this serious.

Why was he looking for Jian Xiaoning?

Lu Jinye ignored him and said, “You’ll figure it out.”

Lu Jinye hung up.

Xu Se was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

A few days ago when Xu Se and Jian Xiaoning had gone out together, a woman had arched her eyebrow

winsomely at him and slipped a note in his pocket, asking for a date.

Xu Se had taken the note out of his pocket and threw it into the trashcan. And somehow that made Jian

Xiaoning angry.

She picked it up and ripped it into pieces before leaving him.

Xu Se felt that Jian Xiaoning was making a mountain out of a molehill, whereas she felt that he was

being a flirt.

Xu Se had always been like that. He was always surrounded by girls. He enjoyed the attention and liked

experimenting. But Jian Xiaoning… Felt that relationships should be monogamous.

In short, they disagreed then, and they disagreed now.

As for their current disagreement, Xu Se could not understand why they needed to keep on talking about

their feelings.

There were plenty of beautiful women around him, but why did he had to choose such a disagreeable

one.

But he had no choice. Lu Jinye had insisted on him bringing Jian Xiaoning.

No one could afford displeasing Lu Jinye.

Xu Se pondered over it before finally deciding to call Jian Xiaoning. The call was immediately rejected.

Xu Se contemplated it once more. He didn’t know what to do. When he suddenly recalled Jian Xiaoning

saying that she had seen Mu Zhi a few days back, he immediately sent her a text message, ‘Lu Jinye

wants us to go to his place. He has information on Mu Zhi.’

Xu Se wasn’t sure if it would work.

When Jian Xiaoning immediately replied, ‘I’ll call a cab!’

Xu Se was taken aback and responded, ‘I’ll pick you up.’

There was no further reply from her.

In the end, Xu Se headed to Lu Jinye’s house himself.

Lu Jinye had never needed help when pursuing a woman but when it came to Mu Zhi, he asked Jian

Xiaoning for help.

Jian Xiaoning stared at what little information Lu Jinye had and analyzed them. “This is actually

beneficial for us. She has plenty of memories in City A and many that could stimulate her memory.”

Jian Xiaoning started to give Lu Jinye instructions to follow and the do’s and don’ts. Xu Se froze while

she was listing all these out… How could his girlfriend be so smart?

They had to cooperate and follow Sophia’s treatment. She would be in charge of stimulating Mu Zhi to

start the process of retrieving Mu Zhi’s memories.

…

The next day.

The Xie Residence was in a flurry in preparation for Xie Xiu’s birthday.

From antique decorations to air flown ingredients for food, the birthday party was going to be an upscale

one.

Many distinguished guests had been invited, and they were all people of status.

Mu Zhi had not met many of Xie Xiu’s business partners. This would be the first time she was going to

introduce herself.

Xie Xiu had her wear a blue green dress so that she would look dainty and fairylike, but it was not

something that Mu Zhi would usually wear.

Moreover, Xie Xiu had asked the makeup artist for a western style of makeup. Her features were heavily

contoured to make her seem mixed. This way, they would complement each other when they stood

together.

Mu Zhi was happy with just watching the excitement of the party around her and standing next to Xie Xiu

as the hostess. She arrived at a new conclusion regarding her feelings for Lu Jinye.

Maybe it was because Xie Xiu had been too overprotective of her and wouldn’t let her do anything that

these emotions of hers could have easily been incited by anyone.

And now as she stood by Xie Xiu and greeted their guests, she felt that her feelings were truer than ever.

She felt like she was living in the real world.

Halfway through the party, the businessmen started to toast each other and encouraged each other to

drink.

Jian Xiaoning stealthily joined the crowd. She was holding a glass of wine and observing Mu Zhi. She

was deliberating what persona to use to complete the task Lu Jinye had assigned her to.

Her first meeting with Mu Zhi had not been successful. She had been filled with anxiety and had exposed

her identity.

This could easily cause Mu Zhi to be scared of her.

Therefore, their next strategy was to slowly get Mu Zhi to feel comfortable around them.

At that moment, a man approached Mu Zhi.

The man seemed to have drunk too much and held up a wine glass to toast Mu Zhi. “Hello Mrs. Xie.

Here’s a toast to you,” he slurred.

Mu Zhi did not want to drink with him and tried to avoid him.

The man was drunk and persistently followed her.

Xie Xiu was nowhere to be seen.

Mu Zhi could only take a step backwards whenever he took a step towards her.

Mu Zhi kept retreating.

Suddenly, she slipped and fell into the swimming pool.

The water was cold, and when Mu Zhi fell in, the coldness bit into her skin and sank into her bones.

Thankfully, she knew how to swim, but before she could start swimming, her leg started to cramp due to

the coldness.

Jian Xiaoning knew that Mu Zhi could swim.

But after a while when Mu Zhi did not resurface, Jian Xiaoning became anxious. She looked around and

immediately jumped into the water.

Mu Zhi had been trying to swim for the surface when in her panic, she swallowed mouthfuls of water.

Just when she thought she was going to drown, Jian Xiaoning appeared next to her!
