Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 509 - 403 Memory Blank_2

"I had suspected this matter earlier," Ye Cheng wasn’t too surprised about Men Chao taking over the Xu Family. "I had just discovered Men Chao’s origins when I was attacked in an assassination attempt. Grandpa, Men Chao’s target isn’t the Xu Family, he definitely has bigger aims."

Elder Xu nodded, "You haven’t fully recovered yet. Rest here with me for a while. Outside, everyone thinks you are already gone. You can use this opportunity to investigate Men Chao thoroughly."

"Grandpa, I can’t use the identity of Young Master Gu, but I have other identities I can use. This is the perfect time to investigate and clarify some facts openly with another identity."

At that time, the four big families all participated in that project.

The matter caused a sensation at the time, and because it involved secrets, the investigation results were not made public, and were only preserved in the archival library.

"Alright, start with the case of explosion 319," Elder Gu nodded. "No one knows you’re still alive apart from me; you can feel safe in your investigation."

Prime Minister Gu and his wife only knew that he was still breathing, but they were unaware that he had awakened.

"Alright."

...

"Say ’mommy, mommy.’" Xiaofeng held a colorful, beautiful rattle, decorated with little bells, shaking it at Dabao and Erbao, "Whoever calls ’mommy’ first, I’ll hold first."

"Mmm-mmm... mmm-mmm." Erbao seemed to understand Xiaofeng’s words, gesticulating excitedly: "Mmm-mmm... mmm-mmm."

Upon hearing Erbao’s babbling, Xiaofeng burst into joyful laughter, lifted up the adorable child and kissed her several times, "Truly a daughter is a mother’s little quilted jacket, calling ’mommy’ at just seven months."

Seven-month-old Dabao, hearing what his mom said, grimaced, overwhelmed by an unbearable sensation.

Closed his eyes, and continued to sleep.

He didn’t want to call out, as saying the word ’mommy’ would only result in his face being covered in his mother’s kisses. That kind of thing was only for his silly sister to enjoy; he didn’t want it.

He wanted to keep sleeping.

After putting down Erbao, Xiaofeng looked worriedly at Dabao and asked Su Peng, "Big brother, do you think there might be something wrong with Dabao’s brain? From birth until now, all he does is eat and sleep; he doesn’t smile, nor does he like to move."

It’s been over seven months, and Dabao is still like he was as a baby, only eating and sleeping, which was worrisome.

"Don’t let your imagination run wild; I think the big guy is just fine. When he grows up, he’ll surely be particularly stable, unlike the second one, dancing around at the slightest thing, not stable at all."

Gu Shuhan: "Uncle, you’re right, you understand me so well."

Gu Shujun: "Uncle, you really got it, criticizing me like that, I might get angry."

Burst into loud crying.

Xiaofeng quickly soothed the younger one, "Brother, did you see? The little one understands what you are saying. You said something bad about her, and she’s not happy about it."

Su Peng chuckled, "This little one, acting as if she really understands."

Gu Shujun cried even harder; she actually did understand.

"Feng, Ye Cheng is also gone; maybe we shouldn’t go to the Imperial Capital. The Imperial Capital is too dangerous, let’s live here simply and purely. Don’t worry, even if I never marry, I won’t let anyone bully the three of us women,"

Thinking of the Imperial Capital reminded Su Peng of that cold and distant woman.

What was he thinking, anyway? She was nothing but a fraudster, who from the beginning to the end was deceiving him, all to harm Xiaofeng and her two children.

Back then he was too naive, not realizing her true nature.

"Bro, if you don’t marry, our mom will be heartbroken. Besides, since I’ve entered the Gu Family, naturally I am a person from the Gu Family and should return," She had been back here for almost a month now, and Ye Cheng hadn’t come for her.

That meant, in his memory, she no longer existed.

That was also good. Everything could start afresh.

He Ximei came out of the kitchen, looked at the siblings and asked, "What are you two saying behind my back?"

"Mom, I was saying it’s time to find a wife for my brother. He’s not getting any younger," Xiaofeng said smilingly.

Su Peng hurriedly defended, "Mom, there’s no rush, I’m only in my twenties, why the hurry?"

"Yes, you’re not in a hurry," He Ximei sneered, "You’re just thinking about that girl. I’ll tell you, stop thinking about her, she’s nothing but a fraudster."

Mentioning Lili, Su Peng fell silent; he stood up carrying Dabao, "I’m going to take Dabao outside for some air."

Actually, there was nothing between him and Lili, except that he occasionally felt a pang of heartache when he thought of her.
