Chapter 294 Interrogation
“Who are you all…?” Zixin questioned.
Jun stiffened and so did Jin. He slowly shut his eyes, feeling crushed and defeated. The thing that he most feared happened.
Serena and Jianyu blinked at him in confusion. “Zixin, what do you an? It’s us. Your family.”
Zixin’s brows tiredly furrowed. “Zi…Zixin? Is that my na?”
Coming to a certain chilly realization, everybody froze. Serena’s breath stuck in her throat, and she asked with terror striking deep in her heart, “You d-don’t rember us?”
Zixin threw another glance at everybody and tried to recall any faces that might know. But his mories all felt to him blank like a white clean slate. He started to panic and forced himself to rember anything about himself, but even the na Zixin didn’t ring a bell.
“I…” he was breathless. “I don’t know. I don’t know anybody here. What is going on?”
When Liang Shin ca in, he sent everybody out for so preliminary tests and scans of Zixin’s brain.
Ai hurriedly walked towards Jun, who was waiting for him outside. “What happened, Jun? Is Chen Zixin alright? Also, why did Dr. Liang head inside again?”
Jun massaged his temples that were beginning to ache. He pulled her closer and rested his forehead on her shoulder.
“Jun?” She worriedly whispered.
“…It’s just what I had feared, Ai,” he trembled, “Bro Zixin doesn’t rember anyone.”
Her eyes slowly widened. She felt his hot tears on her neck and with it, the sense of loss that was going through.
“Jun. You have to be strong because only you know about the true nature of his accident. We have to find the culprit.”
She held his face and tiptoed to kiss him. “Jun, you don’t have to take everything on yourself. You are not alone. I am here with you. Always. I love you.”
Jun stared at her with an unreadable gaze and kissed her forehead. “I love you too. Ai, I will be back in so ti. Stay with Xing Bi and Yunru.”
“Where are you going?”
His dark brown eyes were filled with a dark chill. “To get so answers.”

*Splash!*
“Hhaaaaa!” Feng Wuhan gasped in shock with the sudden and harsh splash of water on his face. He breathed heavily, looking confused at the man standing before him.
“You…Liu Jun! You have forcibly locked up here for ages! Let go already!” His fear laced voice echoed in the base.
Jun clutched his hair and grabbed his head up, pulling them harshly at his scalp. “Ahhh! Hurts-“
“Hurts?” Jun icily cut him off. “Does it hurt when I pull your hair like this?” He tugged them harder again, making him yelp. “This much pain is nothing compared to what my brother is going through right now.”
Feng Wuhan felt the hair at his back tingle with terror.
“If you want to spare your sorry life, then tell . Before I brought you here, did anybody contact you about any plan to hurt Chen Zixin?”
Feng Wuhan couldn’t concentrate at all with his scalp burning with pain. He felt his hair getting torn off his skin. “I…I don’t understand what you are talking about.”
He gave a frosty smile that rang all kinds of alarm bells inside Feng Wuhan. “A bit more torture here and there and you will understand what I am talking about. You were planning Chen Zixin’s accident because you lost the project deal to him, right?”
Feng Wuhan widened his eyes. “What? N-No!”
“Shut up!” Jun gave him a hard slap across his face. “Trust , I am not in the best of my moods right now. So if you lie to , then you will suffer hell.”
He shook his head hard. “I-I am telling the truth! I never planned anything against Chen Zixin!”
“But you lost to him.”
He gritted his teeth. “That’s true. He is my biggest competitor, a-and he has been winning many deals back to back.”
Jun dangerously lowered his voice, “So you wanted him out of your way.”
“No! I didn’t plan anything! You have trapped here for so many days!” He shivered. “What can I even do if I wanted to do anything against him!?”
Jun studied his eyes and got frustrated. It was true that Feng Wuhan was in no position to harm Zixin, but he didn’t know who else to question. The driver who smashed his truck into Zixin’s car in this life was still on the run. Jun only had Feng Wuhan to whom he could ask questions.
“Did anybody contact you before we locked you up here? Who wanted to hurt Chen Zixin?”
“No-Nobody-“
“Rember about the lying part. I have many tools at my disposal to torture you,” he warned.
Feng Wuhan paled. “It’s the truth! Really, nobody called regarding Chen Zixin at all! Chen Zixin won the deal and then I was suddenly dragged here…I don’t have any idea what’s going on…” he begged.
“Fuck!” Jun cursed and pushed him away. He banged the door shut behind him in anger but stopped upon seeing Jin in front of him. He slightly stiffened.
“You are here too.”
“I want answers too naturally,” Jin narrowed his eyes. “If Feng Wuhan was unable to lift a finger against Bro Zixin, then it ans that we were wrong in the past life. The real culprit was soone else.”
Jun frowned. “I understand that now. But why did he take the bla in the past? He had confessed it himself that he planned the accident against Bro-” He paused after the possibility dawned upon him. “Unless he was…”
“Forced to do so,” Jin completed his sentence.
Jun ca to the sa conclusion. “But who? Who hates Bro Zixin so much that they will go to such lengths?” He narrowed his eyes. “But I guess we will get an answer to that soon.”
Jin replied. “Pretty much. If the sa thing will happen in this life too, then whoever the culprit is will surely find another scapegoat to take the bla for the accident just like they did with Feng Wuhan. Sobody else will confess, most likely another one of Bro Zixin’s rivals.”
“But this ti, we will know that he would be lying and through him…” his eyes glinted with peril, “we will learn the culprit who forced him to confess. This ti, I won’t let that bastard get away with this.”
