“Go overseas? No way! Our grandson’s health is still not okay! I won’t let you abuse him like this!”
Madam Ji immediately objected to his suggestion.
“Whether your concern is in your son’ health or your woman’s emotions, I won’t agree to you bringing the boy anywhere—not before he’s fully recovered.”
Mister Ji also nodded. “Yes, let our grandson recuperate fully first.”
The man did not continue on the topic upon seeing the two’s insistence.
The corner of his lips moved ever so slightly and then calmly said, “I still have things to do, so I’ll take my leave now. Don’t let the boy meet Qu Jingwan.”
His parents felt exasperated at this.
After all, that young lady had saved their precious grandson’s life.
“That lady saved your son’s life, so doing that is rather rude.”
“Benefactor… hur…”
He cocked an eyebrow as his eyes flashed with coldness.
He felt that this supposed benefactor was nothing but an elaborate ploy.
“In any case, don’t let him meet her.”
With that, he walked out of his parents’ house.
This elderly couple could only shake their heads speechlessly as they watched their son leave.
“Old Ji, I say, our son truly doesn’t want his mother now that he has a wife.”
“Mhm.”
“Sigh. What charms does Pei Ge have exactly? She actually managed to reduce our son into such a state. Now, he doesn’t even want his son anymore.”
…
After leaving his parents’ house, the man made his way to Pei Ge’s apartment, just as his mother suspected.
The woman was cooking dinner for the two children when he knocked on the door. She opened the door and let him in.
“Ziming, why are you here? Where is Ping An?”
She was first surprised to see him but quickly started looking for Ji Chi expectantly.
Alas, she did not see a sign of the child after looking around.
“He’s home.”
Seeing how expectant she looked, he gently pulled her hand and informed her.
“He’s home?”
She paused when she heard that and then frowned at him.
“Home? Why did you bring him out of the hospital? He’s currently—”
She was gently cut off by the man before she could finish speaking.
“His health is fine. The only problem is with his head.”
She wanted to reprimand him but felt stunned when she heard that.
“W-What do you mean by that?”
She looked at him, feeling lost. That was because she knew that he would not say this for no reason.
“I suspect that Qiao Jingyun put our son under hypnosis so he doesn’t remember only you.”
His words were like bolts of lightning as they shot right to her heart, making her unable to calm down for some time.
“W-What are you saying? M-My son is under hypnosis?”
“Yes, it isn’t selective amnesia; he’s under hypnosis.”
