Chapter 954 Huo Sinian noticed something was wrong
"How could you get injured with so many bodyguards?" Lin Tan asked. "Who injured you?"
Huo Sinian stared into her eyes.
There was curiosity and a little bit of worry in it.
She genuinely didn't know.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lin Tan asked, somewhat frightened by his gaze. "Did I hurt you?"
"No." Huo Sinian pulled the blanket over her. "She bumped into it by accident."
Lin Tan wanted to ask more questions.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Secretary Ye's voice rang out from outside the door: "Boss, are you free now? I'd like to talk to you about something."
"You go to sleep first, I'm going out for a bit." Huo Sinian tucked the blanket around him and then opened the door and left.
The door closed.
Lin Tan felt as if she had been stabbed in the head.
The scene of closing the door felt somewhat familiar.
She didn't think much of it; most of her attention was on the scar on Huo Sinian's chest.
I don't know why, but I suddenly wanted to know how that scar came about.
She tried hard to recall, racking her brains.
Sudden.
An image appeared in her mind.
She grabbed a shard of glass and plunged it into his chest.
Then some dialogues and deeper images appeared in my mind.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
——"It's very cruel."
"Aren't you afraid I'll break your arms and legs?"
As the conversation unfolds, memories begin to resurface little by little.
The curiosity and doubt in his eyes faded as more and more things came to mind, and his face and eyes became pale and filled with fear.
At the same time.
Huo Sinian's side.
He summoned Secretary Ye to his study.
Seeing his serious expression, Huo Sinian remained as composed as ever: "What is it?"
“Your guess is correct.” Secretary Ye handed over the documents in her hand. “I checked all the contact information and the movements of the people around the Second Young Master. Shortly after Miss Lin Tan’s wedding, Assistant Jiang, who was close to the Second Young Master, contacted Shen Yuanqiao.”
Huo Sinian flipped through the documents.
Secretary Ye: "But we couldn't find out exactly what they talked about."
“There’s no need to investigate; it’s definitely related to Lin Tan.” Huo Sinian closed the file, his gold-rimmed glasses making him appear very refined. “Go and call Shen Yuanqiao over.”
Secretary Ye: "Yes."
A short while later.
Shen Yuanqiao was brought over by Secretary Ye.
When Shen Yuanqiao saw Huo Sinian sitting on the sofa with an imposing aura, a hint of unease appeared on his face.
"What brings you here so late, Mr. Huo?"
"What did Jiang Yu say to you?"
Shen Yuanqiao's face paled.
I didn't expect it to be exposed so quickly.
"Or rather, what did my good brother ask you to confess?" Huo Sinian stared directly at him, his gaze carrying a strong sense of pressure.
Shen Yuanqiao: "What do you mean..."
He tried to get away with it.
Huo Sinian didn't give him that chance: "You didn't give Lin Tan any psychological suggestion, did you?"
"I……"
"Either tell the truth, or I'll throw you off the island." Huo Sinian maintained a refined expression, but his words were chilling. "The choice is yours."
Shen Yuanqiao's face turned deathly pale.
"three."
"I really don't know..."
"two."
"I……"
"one."
"I'll tell you!" Shen Yuanqiao couldn't stand the oppressive feeling and spoke directly, "It was Young Master Huo who instructed me to tell you that if you find me, you should let me erase Lin Tan's memories, but I shouldn't actually erase them."
Huo Sinian looked at him.
Shen Yuanqiao was under immense pressure: "So I used some medication and hypnosis to temporarily put her mind in a blank state."
Huo Siqing chuckled.
Shen Yuanqiao immediately got goosebumps.
My fear of him suddenly intensified.
"You listen to him so obediently, didn't you ever think that I would throw you into the sea to feed the sharks after the truth comes out?" Huo Sinian said unhurriedly.
Shen Yuanqiao's face was ashen.
Huo Sinian stood up: "Or do you think I'm not as ruthless as my brother?"
“No…” Shen Yuanqiao shook his head and hurriedly explained, “It was Second Young Master who told me that you’ve been in a bad mood lately and that you’re prone to going astray, and that I shouldn’t be an accomplice.”
Just then.
Bodyguards suddenly appeared outside the door.
"Boss, a ship is approaching not far away. Through binoculars, we can see that it carries the Second Young Master and Qin Mo."
"How much further?" Huo Sinian asked.
“We should be at the island pier in about half an hour,” the bodyguard replied. “They don’t have a car; it will take them another half hour to get here from the pier.”
"Transfer." Huo Sinian gave the order to Secretary Ye.
Secretary Ye: "Yes."
Huo Sinian immediately went to Lin Tan's room.
His younger brother is really a handful.
When he arrived at the room with a lot of emotions, he found the bed empty. He instinctively walked towards the dressing room and bathroom, only to find that there was no one there either.
In a short time.
A bad feeling welled up inside me.
He immediately went outside and bumped into the bodyguard leading Shen Yuanqiao downstairs.
He stared at Shen Yuanqiao and asked, "You just said that Lin Tan's memories haven't been erased, but are just in a temporary blank period. How long can this blank period last?"
"At least a month," Shen Yuanqiao answered honestly, daring not to hide anything anymore. "But if he is stimulated by the outside world or sees something familiar, he may recover at any time."
Huo Sinian remembered that Lin Tan had just asked him about his scars.
He rushed downstairs, taking three steps at a time, and asked in a deep voice after seeing the bodyguards guarding the door, "Where is Lin Tan?"
"They just went out," the bodyguard said.
Almost instantly.
He guessed that she had regained her memory.
Now I don't know where they've run off to and are hiding.
"Turn off the jammer and notify everyone that once they see Lin Tan, bring her to me immediately." After saying this, Huo Sinian went to find the person in the direction the bodyguard indicated.
A few seconds.
The signal jammer was turned off, and the phone signal was restored instantly.
Huo Sinian opened the monitoring app on his phone to check Lin Tan's location.
Lin Tan then hurried towards the dock.
Just as Huo Sinian had guessed.
She remembered everything.
When she thought about the origin of the scar on his chest, a flood of past memories rushed back to her.
She intended to continue pretending, find a suitable time for him to take her out, and then use the opportunity to escape, but she overheard the bodyguards reporting that Qin Mo had arrived.
She had no thoughts at all at that moment.
All he could think about was meeting up with Qin Mo.
While Huo Sinian is still unaware that her memories have been restored, she can easily slip away.
"Miss Lin Tan is over there!" the bodyguard suddenly shouted.
Lin Tan then saw two or three people running towards her.
Her mind went blank for a moment.
I don't know which way to go.
If she continued towards the dock, she would have to run for more than half an hour through the line of defense of these people to get there. But if she ran in the opposite direction, it would be difficult for her to meet up with Qin Mo.
"Miss Lin Tan, the boss wants you to go back." The bodyguard stopped a few steps away from her.
"I came out for a walk to clear my head," Lin Tan continued acting. "I'll go back in a bit."
The bodyguard picked up his phone to report: "Boss, Miss Lin Tan said she'll go back after taking a break."
Lin Tan's mind went blank for a moment.
cell phone?
Wasn't nobody using it a while ago?
Although she didn't remember anything from before, she clearly remembered that they communicated using walkie-talkies.
This island has always been in a state of signal blockade.
What now...?
"Bring him back immediately." Huo Sinian's cold voice came from the man's phone.
