Looking at Mo San’s hesitant expression, she could sense that this matter wasn’t small.
When she arrived at the hospital, Lan Anran received a call from Old Mrs. Mo.
“Anran, why am I hearing that Jinrong is hospitalized again? How is his health? Which hospital is he at?” Old Mrs. Mo asked anxiously.
“Grandma, he is alright now, Jinrong isn’t in any danger, you don’t have to worry, I’ll send you the address.”
Lan Anran hung up and looked at Mo San.
“You’re such a clairvoyant.”
“Miss Lan, don’t blame me. I wouldn’t dare to disobey Old Mrs. Mo’s orders.”
Mo San was stumped.
After various examinations in the hospital and confirming that Mo Jinrong was alright, they transferred him to the normal ward and put him on an IV drip.
Old Mrs. Mo and Nanny Wu arrived at the hospital and hurried to see Mo Jinrong.
“Why is he suddenly ill? Didn’t he say he was cured by that psychologist?” Old Mrs. Mo asked.
“Grandma! I want to ask about someone,” Lan Anran helped Old Mrs. Mo up and said.
“Tell me.”
“Who is Mo Shengli?”
Old Mrs. Mo was suddenly startled. She glanced at her Nanny Wu.
“How do you know him? Is this related to Jinrong’s illness?”
Old Mrs. Mo didn’t seem to want to mention this name.
“Jinrong said his name when he was in a coma. I’m just a little curious. Since most of Jinrong’s illness was caused by psychological reasons, I believe this person should be the key.”
The atmosphere in the ward became strange. Lan Anran wasn’t used to the sudden calm.
“He is the son of the Mo Family, or more accurately, the illegitimate son of the Mo Family!”
Old Mrs. Mo seemed to have recalled a past she didn’t want to recall, but she still spoke tirelessly.
Lan Anran had a very obvious expression. She only knew that the Mo Family had two sons and had never heard of the third one.
“Then why isn’t he in the Mo Family? I don’t think I’ve seen him before.”
Lan Anran only knew that Old Mrs. Mo had two sons and now, she had another. Besides, Old Mrs. Mo never mentioned his name, which didn’t make sense.
“He has been missing for many years. He isn’t my biological son. To be precise, I’m his stepmother. This happened decades ago. When I married the old man, I didn’t know he had an illegitimate son. It was many years later when I found out.
But I had no choice and could only accept it. I treated him as the eldest son of the Mo Family and my biological son. Those few years were indeed enjoyable, but ever since Lanxuan passed away, I was at a loss and didn’t have the mood to care about his feelings. I wasn’t as good to him as before, but he didn’t show any obvious dissatisfaction, so I didn’t think much of it.
On a sea trip, he was suddenly caught in a storm. At that time, almost everyone was wiped out, but in the end, he was the only one missing. We searched for a long time but couldn’t find his corpse. In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed, but there is still no news. I would have forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned it. When he was young, he had the best relationship with Jinrong. Perhaps he still hasn’t forgotten his uncle.”
Old Mrs. Mo finished her sentence sadly, the scenes from back then replaying in her mind.
“Are you sure he passed away?” Lan Anran asked skeptically.
Regarding whether he was alive or dead, she would automatically conclude that he was alive and missing rather than dead.
“The accident happened in the middle of the sea and the boat almost flipped. He might have fallen into the sea. After so many years, he’s long gone. It’s impossible for him to still be alive.”
Old Mrs. Mo spoke with certainty as she wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
Lan Anran felt that the matter was a little strange. How could it be such a coincidence? Back then, everyone was fine and he was the only one who fell into the sea. Mo Jinrong was still young at the time, was he frightened by something? Hence, he had always had this person in his subconsciousness.
But she didn’t see that scene just now. Hypnosis was created based on a person’s subconsciousness and most of the images in the subconsciousness were real memories in the brain. Did Mo Jinrong happen to have forgotten about that?
“Grandma! Did Jinrong have any special reaction at that time?” Lan Anran asked.
“Jinrong was still young, we wouldn’t know if he remembers or not. It’s been so many years, I only know that everyone was frightened and Jinrong was also frightened, his eyes were wide open.”
Old Mrs. Mo vaguely recalled the incident back then and was covered in cold sweat at the thought.
Suddenly, Mo Jinrong’s hand moved and he opened his eyes.
“Jinrong, how do you feel now you’re awake?”
Old Mrs. Mo hurried forward to help her grandson. Her heart ached when she saw his pale face.
“Grandma, why are you here? I’m fine.”
Mo Jinrong sat up weakly and leaned against the pillow.
“How could you say that you’re alright? You’re already in the hospital and you’re still trying to hide it from me?”
Old Mrs. Mo chided.
Mo Jinrong glared at Mo San in silence.
“You don’t have to look at him, I told him to do so. Hasn’t your body recovered? Why is your illness acting up again? You only revealed your identity because you’re better. If your illness acts up again, it wouldn’t be safe for you if word spreads.”
Old Mrs. Mo was a little worried.
Mo Jinrong has offended a lot of people for him to be able to bring the Mo Family Group to the top three in such a short time. Previously, because he had concealed his identity, everyone’s attention had been diverted to Mo San. Now that his identity was exposed, all the attention would definitely be focused on Mo Jinrong. This wouldn’t be good for him.
“It’s alright, I will take note. It’s getting late, I will go back after I’ve finished my IV drip. Grandma, you should hurry back to sleep.”
“Rascal, you’re still worrying about me at a time like this? I’ll only be at ease if I leave with you and see that you’re discharged.”
Old Mrs. Mo was really worried about her sickly grandson. If he fell, the entire Mo Family would be finished.
The moment she finished speaking, the door was pushed open and Lan Yaxin walked in carrying a thermos flask and Xu Yanshan followed her in with a grin.
“Jinrong, it’s great that you’re awake. We were worried about Jinrong’s illness, so Yaxin specially made some porridge. She thought that the two of you probably haven’t eaten yet and thought that Jinrong would need something light since he had just recovered. She sent it over.”
Xu Yanshan entered the room and placed the thermal lunch box down, wanting to scoop some porridge.
“Wait, who told you to come?”
Old Mrs. Mo spoke softly.
She didn’t like this family. They were always chasing him for no reason. She didn’t like this feeling.
“Old Mrs. Mo, look at what you’re saying. Jinrong is ill and as Anran’s aunt and cousin, is it wrong for us to visit her?”
Xu Yanshan smiled.
She was cursing Old Mrs. Mo in her heart!
