Not far from them, Li Bingbing and her son, Xia Liqin, were watching the two women talk. They weren't able to hear anything but based on Shi Enxi's expression, they could tell that something was not right.

Also, Lu Mengjie somehow looked different, no, not look, it was the air around her was different. It was as if a wild wolf like her had been… tamed. Also, the way she dressed was not her usual style and yet, it suited her.

Li Bingbing stood up. "I'm going." She couldn't sit still anymore, not when her daughter was already within her reach.

Xia Liqin hurriedly held his mother's hand to stop her. "Mother, don't beat her up here. Not in front of others."

Li Bingbing frowned, she ended up flicking Xia Liqin's forehead. "I'm not going to beat her up."

Even if Li Bingbing was angry at her daughter, she wasn't going to humiliate her in front of other people. She walked towards Lu Mengjie and Shi Enxi. The two were busy talking that their attention was only disrupted when Li Bingbing sat beside Lu Mengjie, it was as if she was cornering her against the glass window.

Meanwhile, Xia Liqin didn't have a choice but to follow his mother and ended up sitting beside Shi Enxi.

Lu Mengjie ended up looking at Li Bingbing. The moment she saw her. A strange light flickered in her eyes but it soon disappeared the second it appeared. The woman in front of her was her… real mother.

"Excuse me?" She looked at her, her brows knitted together.

The woman gave her a smile. "Long time no see, dear daughter."

Daughter? That's correct. She was her daughter. Her mind was overflowing with memories of her. She clenched her fist under the table, holding back the desire to embrace her. Even her brother was there. She had to control her emotions. She was being watched.

Shi Enxi sighed heavily. "Mengmeng, she's your mother. Real mother. And this guy here is your brother, Qinqin." She turned to her sister after and continued, "Jiejie, she lost her memories, she can't remember anyone, including her own family."

"What?!" Xia Liqin's loud exclamation was heard which made the people around them turn his way. Even Li Bingbing was surprised because of what Shi Enxi said.

...

Nine, one of Bai Jingye's most trusted associates, knew who the three people were. He was given strict orders not to do anything if one of Lu Mengjie's family appeared. The only problem was… Goyun. It was a good thing that he had chosen a table on where their conversation wasn't heard but still, he knew very well that Goyun was a spy for steward Fang.

"I think we should go and help her. Some strangers approach her, they might be dangerous." He had to act like a concerned bodyguard. That was his role.

"Stop," Goyun said, halting him by grabbing his wrist. "Who cares if they're dangerous? If they kill her right now won't it be a good thing instead? At least they have taken care of a nuisance for us."

Nine narrowed his eyes. "We'll be in trouble if something happened to her."

"Don't worry. We'll only be receiving a small scolding. Other than that, they'll reward us instead. Trust me." He grinned confidently. "Don't be afraid of Mr. Bai Jingye. We have someone stronger backing us up."

He was a stupid man to carelessly reveal the plans of the leader he was following. At least that was what Nine thought. He should send this information to his Boss later.

He sat back at his seat and became quiet after.

The other man patted his shoulder and continued, "I know that you're annoyed with her. Can you believe it? I almost lost my job because of her. Thankfully, I have steward Fang backing me up. To be honest, I think that Bai Jingye should just divorce her. Why choose an unrefined woman like her?"

This time, Nine was sure that Goyun was blind and stupid. A human form of headache.

…

"You are my... Mother and... Brother?" Lu Mengjie was staring at them, surprised, looking as if it was too much for her.

"Apparently, Mengmeng here got into an accident," explained Shi Enxi.

"This better be not one of your tricks, Mengjie." Li Bingbing glared at her daughter. Even she had a hard time seeing through her daughter once she decided to hide something from her.

Lu Mengjie shrank back, looking like a scared pup when she saw her mother's gaze. She didn't want to pretend but she had to. If her mother was here, that only meant that she might drag her out of the country. "I-I'm sorry... I really can't remember..."

"Mom, what if it's real?" Asked Xia Liqin, worriedly. "Don't scare her, mom."

Shi Enxi nodded in agreement. "Mengmeng, why don't you tell us again what happened?"

Li Bingbing pursed her lips. They were looking for her for almost a year already and yet, she was here all this time? Living as someone else? No wonder... No wonder they weren't able to find her so easily. Lu Mengjie looked like she wanted to hide, she was really confused. She thought.

"I... I woke up in the hospital. I honestly didn't remember anything, even my own name... The only thing I remembered was... Meng. Grandpa Bai thought that maybe Meng was a part of my name. Well, now that you all are here, it looks like it really is... Mengjie, Lu Mengjie, that's my real name, right?"

Xia Liqin nodded vigorously, he reached out and held her hand gently, and replied, "yes, that's your real name, Jiejie. You don't have to worry anymore, we will help you regain your memory."

She could feel something warm growing in her chest when she saw Xia Liqin's gentle gaze. He has always been there, a simp for his sister.

"Continue." Her thoughts were interrupted by Li Bingbing's voice.

She looked scared of Li Bingbing, looking like she had never expected that her mother was going to be a strict and serious woman. "Grandpa Bai told me that I saved him... He was so thankful and since I lost my memories since I saved him, he took me in his family."

"Grandpa Bai? What's his name?" Shi Enxi inquired.

"His name is Bai Keran."
