Hao Yan Che carried his son, held his wife’s hand and took them to the bedroom. He put his son on the bed, and turned on the TV.

‘Stay here for a bit,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘I need to take care of something. Then I’ll come back and take us home.’

Yuan Gun Gun ignored Hao Yan Che. He didn’t make a fuss, and walked outside the bedroom.

‘Hao Hao, when you grow up don’t be unreasonable like your daddy,’ Yuan Gun Gun said sternly.

Na Liu Hao was lazy to argue with his mummy. He levitated the remote control to his hand.

Yuan Gun Gun laid on the bed, and sighed helplessly. Her husband and son were two of a kind.

Outside the bedroom, Hao Yan Che called a security guard.

‘Call director Feng to come to my office,’ Hao Yan Che said.

‘Yes CEO Hao,’ the security guard said.

Hao Yan Che hung up the phone, sat on the sofa and thought deeply.

A while later, Feng Ting knocked on the door.

‘Come in,’ Hao Yan Che said.

‘CEO Hao, you wanted to see me?’ Feng Ting asked.

‘Sit,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Feng Ting sat opposite to Hao Yan Che.

‘What you said before,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘Do you mean that people dared to bully Gun Gun in the past?’

‘CEO Hao, it’s better if you talk to Gun Gun about this,’ Feng Ting said.

‘Gun Gun lost her memory,’ Hao Yan Che said.

‘What?’ Feng Ting asked.

‘You heard me,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘Gun Gun lost her memory. I want you to answer my question.’

‘Gun Gun made me promise not to tell you,’ Feng Ting said.

‘Two days ago, Gong Shao Jie returned to the city,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘Do you want to go and give Gong Shao Jie a hand?’

Feng Ting clenched her hands.

‘Tell me,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Feng Ting took a deep breath.

‘The truth is even if CEO Hao didn’t use Gong Shao Jie to threaten me, I would have told you eventually,’ Feng Ting. ‘It was frustrating for me to keep this promise to Gun Gun.’

Hao Yan Che listened for the answer he wanted to hear.

‘CEO Hao, think about it,’ Feng Ting said. ‘You sit high on a pedestal, and you’re exceptionally beautiful. Yet you chose to marry a simple minded and ordinary woman like Gun Gun. Although Gun Gun also has CEO Yuan’s protection, it’s inevitable for Gun Gun to be the target of other women’s envy.’

‘When did it start?’ Hao Yan Che asked.

‘It started on the first day CEO Hao brought Gun Gun here,’ Feng Ting said. ‘Inside most women’s hearts, you’re an immortal that ordinary people are not allowed to touch. Gun Gun’s appearance broke their hearts. They didn’t hurt Gun Gun physically, but they hurt her mentally. Gun Gun is a genuine dummy. No matter what hurtful things they said to her, she smiled and told them that they only spoke the truth. She would always act like it didn’t hurt her, and go back to you. But you were oblivious. CEO Hao, I’m not someone who likes to interfere in another person’s business. This is an exception. Tell me, were you oblivious or you didn’t care?’

‘You’re her friend,’ Hao Yan Che said. ‘You saw her being bullied, but why didn’t you come to me and tell me?’

‘Yes,’ Feng Ting said. ‘I’m Gun Gun’s friend. But you’re her husband. It’s your job to protect her. Why do you expect me to report to you if she is being bullied? Why didn’t you protect her, and find out for yourself if anyone bullied her?’

It was Hao Yan Che’s turn to clench his hands.

‘I wanted to tell you but Gun Gun made me promise not to tell you,’ Feng Ting said. ‘This is between you and your wife. You live with your wife every day. Didn’t you see the signs? Didn’t you see how anxious your wife was every day coming to work?’

Hao Yan Che thought about Feng Ting’s words.

‘CEO Hao, the truth is I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse for Gun Gun to marry you,’ Feng Ting said.

‘What do you mean?’ Hao Yan Che asked.

‘CEO Hao, you should think about it yourself,’ Feng Ting said. ‘I have work to do. Don’t use Gong Shao Jie to threaten me again. Right now Gun Gun lost her memory. But one day she’ll regain her memory, and she’ll be angry at you if she found out you threatened me. I’ll let today slide, because I know you care about her. I assume a smart person like CEO Hao can understand my warning.’

Feng Ting stood and walked outside Hao Yan Che’s office.

Feng Ting was lucky she was Hao Yan Che’s wife’s friend. If Feng Ting wasn’t, he would have killed Feng Ting for threatening him.

Outside Hao Yan Che’s office, Feng Ting’s body shivered. She didn’t pity the women who were nasty toward Yuan Gun Gun in the past.

A while later, Yi Tu and Jia Tu carried bags of fresh milk and pudding into Hao Yan Che’s office.

‘Young master,’ Yi Tu and Jia Tu greeted and bowed.

‘Um,’ Hao Yan Che said.

Yi Tu and Jia Tu put the fresh milk and pudding into the pig fridge. They both could smell Yuan Gun Gun’s body scent on Hao Yan Che’s body.

‘Young master, is Gun Gun back?’ Yi Tu asked. ‘Is that why you asked us to buy fresh milk and pudding?’
