Chapter 466 - 447: That Day, That Boy-III

Li Lian mulled over what Madam Li told her while sitting in front of her grandmother's hospital bed. After the information, she decided to leave the house and meet both her grandmother and foster mother who were both staying in the floor.

Li Jun Wei was indeed the boy that she had been searching for. She recalled the memories of before she left the house. Madam Li had confessed about the truth, shocking her but there were still bag of questions in her mind that was unanswered, "Why does Jun Wei don't remember any of this?"

"It was a very rare condition," Elder Li, who was sitting in front of her was the one to answer, "After the glass pierced his hands, it hit the nerve which was dangerous and at that time he had lost quite amount of blood that he was nearly in a death's door," and the older man's words affected his wife who drew her brows when recalling what took place years ago. "He barely survive by a hair's breadth but the effect of the accident still remain in his body. He couldn't lift his fingers and right arms for years and since then Jun Wei had chosen to only wore thicker clothes with long sleeve to cover his wounds. But the strongest side effect was that he had to lose one whole worth of memories about the past."

Li Lian's eyes widened, so that was why although they both felt that boy was Jun Wei none of them was sure of it. 

It was them Madam Li's turn to speak, "When we knew about his loss of memories we were relieved. The people who were in the scene told us of how gruesome the place was and how there was another girl who was traumatized by what happened; it was you," said the older woman while looking at her. "We heard about your wish to see Jun Wei again but we decided that it would be much better for him to forget about everything— making it as if it had never happened before."

"Will it be difficult for Jun Wei to remember what happened?" Li Lian then asked and she saw how the elder couple looked on each other's eyes before the elder man said, 

"It would be better if he doesn't. The doctor told us that his lost of memories are permanent. If he is forced to remember, it would cause him a great pain on his head, similar to how a head would split. Some people was told to unable withstand the pain and died due to it," said Elder Li. "I'm sorry, Li Lian. This should be a great memories for you two who had survived and stayed by each other's side in danger, but we cannot do it in the cost of Jun Wei's life."

And Li Lian agreed with what Elder Li said. Li Lian dazed off while looking at her grandmother. She wondered until when can she keeps it a hidden to Jun Wei about their past but if he was to find out sooner or later, it would be easier for her to come clean with it. But if it could harm Jun Wei, she would rather not. He was her precious person and she didn't want her husband to get hurt.

Li Lian lifted her face to look at her grandmother with a smile, "I hope you will wake up soon, grandmother. No one will ever come to hurt you again, I promise. So please wake up. You and sister Xiaoli slept for too long already, the Sun would be sad if they are unable to look at you two again," coaxed Li Lian. The doctors advised her to talk with the patient and was told that this could help the patient to wake up from their sleep.

"I wonder if this is what Jun Wei felt...?" Li Lian whispered to herself. Speaking about him now, make her miss him in her heart and she decided to leave after bidding another goodbye to her grandmother and her foster mother, Yue Xiaoli.

Leaving the room, Li Lian greeted the bodyguards who Li Jun Wei assigned in front of the door with a smile and left before the sky turn any darker. Meanwhile from the darkness between the corner of two intersecting corridor, a shadow lurked out and a person kept their gaze affixed on the room that was guarded by two people. Reaching out to the phone, the person then spoke, "Yes, I have found the room but there are bodyguards and this will be a little hard for us to-" the person on the other side of the phone immediately waved some more money in their offer, "Of course! We will make sure this will be taken care of soon."

"No evidence," said the other person on the phone, masking their voice so no one could hear.

"It will be taken care of cleanly, client. We have never failed," answered the person before the line was cut.

Xie Hue Lin woke up from her bed, feeling horrible. Her stomach pained her as she had been throwing up all food she ate. The image of her grandmother's body still affected her. When she left her room and passed by the same staircase where Senior Mrs. Xie had fallen, her body begin to tremble. Hairs on her back raise and even though there was no one on the stairs, she felt disturb as something in her tells her that her grandmother's soul was watching her back from the end of the staircase. The thoughts then turn to a faint hallucination, causing her to see shadow of her grandmother standing as if she was alive. Her grandmother's were wide as she looked at her, pointing her finger as if blaming the person who had caused the accident.

"I am not wrong! It wasn't me, it wasn't me!" yelled Xie Hue Lin as she took more steps behind to run that only cause her to fall. In fear she pushed herself to stand again and left the staircase, running to open one room to find her mother on a phone.

Mrs. Xie was facing her with her back while her other hand that was idle was crossed before her chest. Hearing the door suddenly opened, Mrs. Xie snapped her eyes at her daughter. 

"Hue Lin!" Mrs. Xie panicked upon seeing how pale and tattered Xie Hue Lin appeared to be. Her hair was untidy; both tears and anxiousness had contoured her expression to make her look older than she was a few days ago. "Oh dear, what happen to you?"

"Mother..." Xie Hue Lin clutched her hand to Mrs. Xie's clothes, "I don't think I can do it anymore... we should go to the police and confess...confess that we were the one who cause-"

"NO!"
