Chapter 1189: Extra Chapter: Ji Minghui

Editor: Henyee Translations

“Do you remember?” a gentle, pleasant voice asked him.

It was clearly an unfamiliar voice, but Ji Minghui thought of the psychological genius girl he had met in Jin City many years ago.

Back then, the girl who was proficient in psychology came with confusion and left him a bottle of perfume with a special effect. Later, she disappeared in an accident. Later on, until he was seriously injured and kidnapped, he never saw her again.

Gu Yang saw that Ji Minghui’s eyes gradually cleared up and he removed the card.

Ji Minghui looked at the girl who looked completely different from what he remembered, but her subtle movements were exactly the same. He hesitated. “Gu Yang?”

Gu Yang smiled. “Long time no see, Director Ji Minghui.”

Ji Minghui also smiled. “You found the answer to those memories?”

Gu Yang nodded.

Ji Linbai stood quietly behind Gu Yang, aware that today marked the final treatment session. He hoped his father would finally acknowledge him upon recovery. However, he was taken aback by how absorbed Ji Minghui was in conversation with Gu Yang, completely ignoring his presence.

In the past, it was one thing for Ryan to pretend to be a father figure after hypnotizing Ji Minghui, but now this biological father was doing the same!

Feeling a mix of frustration and sadness, Ji Linbai finally spoke up. “Dad.”

Only then did Ji Minghui notice him. He looked startled. “Linbai? You’re here too? When did you graduate?”

Ji Linbai replied, “That was five years ago. Dad, I’ve been involved in your treatment.”

Ji Minghui seemed momentarily stunned. “It’s been five years.”

For those five years, he had been confined in a mental hospital, trapped in a haze where each day felt like an eternity. He had lost all sense of time.

Ji Linbai felt a wave of sadness wash over him as well.

But immediately after, Ji Minghui asked, “Are you married?”

Ji Linbai: “… Not yet.”

Ji Minghui was clearly a little disappointed. He thought that he would be able to carry his grandson after he recovered.

Ji Linbai said, “But I have a girlfriend. Her name is Ruan Chu. She’s a very beautiful superstar and Yangyang’s cousin. I’ll bring her home for you to meet her another day.”

“Okay.” The moment Ji Minghui heard that she was Gu Yang’s cousin, he felt more towards Ruan Chu whom he had yet to meet.

Ji Minghui and Ji Linbai thanked Gu Yang once more before heading back to the Ji family, where Ji Minghui had numerous responsibilities to address following his discharge.

As Gu Yang exited the hospital, she spotted a black car parked by the roadside. Feng Jue rolled down the window and waved at her with a bright smile. “Sister.”

Gu Yang smiled back and quickened her pace towards him. “Ah Jue.”

Feng Jue opened the door for her, and Gu Yang settled into the front passenger seat. He then pulled out a mobile phone from his pocket. “Sister, this is the newly developed phone from Xunmeng. It hasn’t been released yet. Can you give me some feedback?”

“Of course.” Gu Yang was accustomed to Feng Jue presenting her with new products from Dream Chaser and seeking her input.

Feng Jue touched the identical model in his pocket and grinned. “Sister, you have to use it often.”

Gu Yang replied, “Mm, I’ll just treat it as a new phone.”

At the Gu residence, Gu Jin and Gu Pei were seated on the sofa in the living room, engrossed in a video game. Gu Pei was fully focused, while Gu Jin wore a cold expression marked by impatience and disdain, though she occasionally offered Gu Pei some pointers.

There was a guest at home–Ning Gui, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time.

She curled up in the corner of the sofa, sipping her tea, her demeanor still quiet and reserved. In contrast, Ruan Xueling, upon learning that Ning Gui was Gu Yang and Gu Jin’s roommate, smiled brightly and engaged her in lively conversation, chatting non-stop.
