    However, she had themon sense to realize that it was futile keeping this from him. He would find


    out, if not from her then from someone else.


    “My mother, Yun Ruobing’s father, Xia Meng’s father, and one of Ee Chen’s parents. Currently, these


    are the people that 1 know are rted to the project,” Xinghe admitted.


    Mubai was stunned. He wasn’t expecting Ruobing and Ee Chen to be involved in this mysterious


    project as well.


    “What else do you know?” Mubai followed up, “And what did your mother leave you?”


    “A ck box, but it’s useless, or rather I have no idea how is it useful yet.”


    “So you suspect everyone else was given this ck box as well?” Mubai guessed.


    “Indeed.”


    “I will help you get to the bottom of this; don’t hesitate to ask for my help if you need it,” Mubai offered.


    Xinghe raised her eyes to look at him and nodded slightly.


    “Thank you.”


    Mubai wanted to tell her, You don’t need to thank me. But this kind of partnership-esque rtionship,


    where both party had equal give and take, was the best he could achieve for now. A few too many


    forceful steps forwards and he would chase Xinghe off.


    It had taken him a lot of effort to finally reach this stage so he couldn’t risk it all for naught. He had to be


    extra careful in his quest to redeem himself. Perhaps one day, he would find a way back into her


    heart…


    Mubai darkened his eyes as he thought about all of that and said in a low voice, “For now, let’s go see


    Lu Qi.”


    “Okay.”


    Before they departed, Mubai gave Lu Qi a call. The doctor seemed to have guessed the purpose of his


    call and visit, and he said, in an exceptionally calm tone, over the phone, “Come meet me at myb.”


    Lu Qi had his own personal medical scienceb which focused solely on medical science research.


    When Mubai and Xinghe arrived, Lu Qi was in theb working on the memory cell technology.


    He showed no surprise when he saw that Mubai walked in with Xia Meng. He smiled lightly. “I didn’t


    expect that you guys would get here so soon.”


    Mubai was bellicose towards this good friend of his. “Why did you do it? You know full well, Xinghe is


    the mother of my child!”


    Lu Qi turned towards Xia Meng and enquired, “Miss Xia Xinghe?”


    “Yes, it’s me.” Xinghe nodded.


    Lu Qi apologized, “I’m sorry for what 1 did but please believe me when I say it was not my intention to


    swap your life. This was Miss Xia Meng’s bargaining chip so 1 had no choice but to perform the


    experiment on you. But I assure you this is temporary because I will switch you back soon.”


    Xinghe did not ept his apology. “What if the switch back fails?”


    Lu Qi chuckled. “Why so pessimistic? I’m sure the research will be a sess but even if it doesn’t


    work, we can always remove the memory cells in both of your brains but this might harm your existing


    memory.”


    Xinghe had lost her memory once before and she didn’t like it so she was averse to this second


    solution. However, she understood if there was no other option, this would have to do.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    “When will the research beplete?” She asked directly.


    From her question, Lu Qi realized Xinghe was still more partial towards recovery via memory cells. “A


    lot of progress has been made recently, we need onest breakthrough and the technology will be


    perfected.”


    Mubai scoffed. “In other words, there is no guarantee it will be sessful?”


    “The predicted sess rate is currently at seventy percent. You have to understand that this is a


    wonderful event that will aid greatly in mankind’s advancement, so I had to silence my conscience and


    let Miss Xia down; however, please believe in me because I will return everything to her,” Lu Qi said


    earnestly..
