Chapter 158 His Daughter?
Chapter 158 His Daughter?
"Where does Dad work?" Bai Wei asked him.
"He works as a security guard at a large corporation. It's not busy and he has a very relaxed job, which is the best job for him."
Bai Wei nodded, thinking to herself that she wanted to go and see him.
"I'll go back and cook dinner later. You stay home, and I'll go see him. I want to know which company he works for."
"Fu Group".
His brother said calmly. Hearing that name, some images suddenly flashed through her mind.
"Ye Xingran, Ye Xingran, Ye Xingran..."
These calls seemed to come from a distant place, yet they also seemed to be right next to our ears.
Bai Wei felt a little dazed. She tried hard to grasp the source of the sound, but the world in front of her only became blurry.
Suddenly, a name popped into her mind—the Fu family.
The name seemed to possess a special magic, causing her thoughts to surge like a tidal wave.
Some ambiguous images flashed through her mind, like long-buried fragments of memory, appearing and disappearing. She saw a magnificent building with the Fu Group's sign hanging on it; she saw a group of busy people, dressed in neat suits, hurrying along; she also saw a blurry figure standing on the top floor of the building, overlooking the entire city…
Although these images were fragmented, Bai Wei had a strong feeling that she seemed to have had some impression of the Fu Group before.
Perhaps, there lies a key clue to her lost memories.
Thinking of this, an impulse welled up inside her. She decided to go to the Fu Group herself, hoping to find some clues about her past.
Perhaps, if she can unravel this mystery, she can regain her lost memories...
Bai Yu keenly noticed her unusual expression and asked with concern, "Weiwei, are you feeling unwell? ...You look very pale..."
"I seem to have some recollection of this Fu family. Perhaps my past memories are related to it. I need to go there and investigate."
Bai Yu looked worried. "Weiwei, I'm worried about you going alone. Should I go with you?" Bai Wei shook her head. "No need. I want to go and check it out by myself first." Her mind was made up, so Bai Yu could only tell her to be careful.
Bai Wei arrived at the Fu Group and, just as she reached the entrance, saw a Toyota Corolla Hybrid slowly drive up and come to a steady stop in front of the group's building.
The car door opened, and a tall, imposing man with a cool and aloof demeanor stepped out. His steps were steady and powerful, his eyes sharp as an eagle's, and he exuded a powerful aura. The surrounding employees cast respectful glances and whispered among themselves.
Bai Wei's heart skipped a beat, a strange sense of familiarity washing over her. She stood there, frozen, her eyes fixed on the man. The man seemed to sense her gaze and turned to look at her. They were separated by a distance, as if by an invisible wall. Suddenly, a car sped past, as if an uninvited guest had intruded into the space between them.
The car was going extremely fast, creating a gust of wind and kicking up dust from the ground.
It rampaged through them, as if trying to separate them completely.
The car's body gleamed metallically in the sunlight, its wheels spinning rapidly with a buzzing sound. Its appearance made the already somewhat awkward atmosphere even more tense, as if time itself had frozen in that moment.
Then, as if he had suddenly lost all interest, Fu Shiyue slowly shifted his gaze away from that spot.
Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he suddenly turned his head away, no longer looking in that direction, and walked towards the Fu family.
Bai Wei felt her heart suddenly race, and her mind went blank.
Those fragmented memories flashed wildly through her mind again, and her body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
She shook her head, clearly aware of her surroundings, and prepared to walk over.
Entering the Fu Group
Bai Wei took a deep breath and was about to step into the group's gate when she was stopped by a security guard.
"Miss, you cannot enter without an appointment."
Bai Wei was anxiously explaining when a familiar figure appeared – it was her father.
When her father saw Bai Wei, he was taken aback at first, then exclaimed with delight, "Weiwei, what brings you here?" Bai Wei said excitedly, "Dad, I wanted to come and see you. Also, I feel that this place is related to my lost memories, and I'd like to look for some clues."
Bai Chuhua's expression turned somewhat unnatural for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. "Silly child, what clues could you possibly have? Go back now."
"Dad, I just saw a man walking this way. He looked so cold. Who is he?" Bai Wei thought about the man and felt that he looked familiar, but she just couldn't remember where she had seen him before.
Bai Wei's father glanced at the man and said casually, "Oh, that man, he's the president here, his name is Fu Shiyue."
Upon hearing the name "Fu Shiyue," Bai Wei felt as if she had been struck by lightning. A sharp pain shot through her head, as if it were about to split open, and the pain was almost unbearable.
“Fu…Shi…Yue…” Bai Wei squeezed out these words through clenched teeth, her voice trembling.
"What's wrong, Weiwei? What's wrong?"
Seeing her daughter in such extreme pain, Bai Chuhua panicked.
"My head hurts so much, it just started hurting so badly all of a sudden," Bai Wei said, her face pale.
Seeing her daughter's pained expression, Bai Chuhua was filled with anxiety and panic.
Then, he took a last-minute leave of absence and took Bai Wei to the hospital for a follow-up examination...
Upon arriving at the hospital, after a thorough examination, the doctor stated that all indicators were normal and no cause for the headache was found. Bai Chuhua, filled with worry, kept pressing the doctor for answers, but the doctor could only shake his head helplessly.
Bai Wei lay in the hospital bed, her headache slightly relieved, but the image of Fu Shiyue lingered in her mind.
"Ms. Bai, given your recent frequent headaches, I believe it's very likely due to you recalling something. This symptom isn't accidental; it may be related to your past experiences or memories," the doctor said earnestly.
Bai Wei sat quietly in the chair, listening to the doctor's analysis, a complex emotion welling up inside her.
She recalled her recent fragmented dreams, along with the blurry figures and scenes that appeared in them, all of which left her feeling confused and uneasy.
The doctor seemed to sense Bai Wei's thoughts and continued, "Memory is a very strange thing. Sometimes it can be triggered unexpectedly and then gradually surface. But this process takes time and cannot be rushed. If you are too eager to recover your memories, it may have adverse effects on your body."
Bai Wei frowned slightly; she understood what the doctor meant, of course. However, she desperately longed to regain those lost memories.
However, the doctor's words also made her realize that excessive anxiety and impatience would not help her solve the problem, but might instead make the situation worse.
"So, Ms. Bai, I suggest you maintain a positive attitude, relax, and don't put too much pressure on yourself. Believe that with time, your memory will gradually recover," the doctor encouraged with a smile.
Bai Wei took a deep breath, nodded, and indicated that she understood the doctor's advice.
Although she still felt some inner turmoil and unease, she knew that the most important thing right now was to take care of her health and keep her mind calm and optimistic.
On the other side, the CEO's office—
Fu Shiyue sat there, his hand constantly stroking his chin, looking thoughtful.
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Xian'an stood in front of him.
"I just saw a woman at the entrance, but just as I was about to get a clear look at her, a car blocked my view. I didn't think about it afterward, but I have a feeling that person was Aran..."
Fu Shiyue said in a low voice, "If that person really is her, and she is still alive, is she still blaming herself? That I failed to protect her and caused her so much suffering?"
Shen Xian'an patted his shoulder, "Don't blame yourself too much. No one could have predicted what happened back then. Lu Fei was a deep and ruthless person. Now that he's dead, he won't be able to hinder you anymore. If it really was Ye Xingran just now, she might still be looking for you."
Fu Shiyue gave a wry smile. "I hope so. So much time has passed, and I've been searching for her whereabouts, but I haven't heard a single clue. Now, if there's suddenly a lead that might be about her, I'm actually a little hesitant to believe it."
“I just saw that woman walking in the direction of the Fu family. I guess she might be looking for someone. Go check and see if anyone was here just now.”
Fu Shiyue said expressionlessly, his voice low and cold, as if devoid of any emotion.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xian'an immediately replied, "Okay, I'll call and check right away."
He turned and strode out of the office, closing the door behind him.
Fu Shiyue remained seated at his desk. Then, he stood up and went to the window, staring intently out the window.
His figure appeared somewhat lonely, a stark contrast to the spacious office. Time ticked by, and the office remained unusually quiet.
About three minutes later, the door was gently pushed open, and Shen Xian'an walked in.
"A-Yue, I found it," Shen Xian'an said softly.
Fu Shiyue slowly turned around, his gaze falling on Shen Xian'an, his eyes still cold and indifferent.
"explain."
He responded briefly, his tone flat and even.
"I just asked them, and there's only one person not at the company, security guard Bai Chuhua. His daughter came to see him just now, and after a while, he had to ask for leave."
Just now, only the security guards were not on duty in the company, but Bai Chuhua suddenly left.
What's even stranger is that not long after, Bai Chuhua's daughter also came to the company, and it seemed that she came specifically to see him.
Why would a security guard's daughter come to see Bai Chuhua at this time? Is there some unknown secret hidden behind this?
Moreover, Bai Chuhua took leave from the company shortly after his daughter arrived, citing personal reasons. Is this merely a coincidence?
"The security guard's daughter? What's her name?" Fu Shiyue asked expressionlessly.
Shen Xian'an looked at Fu Shiyue and couldn't help but feel speechless.
He had only asked Fu Shiyue to tell him who was not there, but Fu Shiyue suddenly asked for the security guard's daughter's name, which caught him off guard.
"You asked me to ask who wasn't there, not to look up their names!" Shen Xian'an replied irritably. "You really are..." Before he could finish speaking, Fu Shiyue interrupted him.
The image of the security guard's daughter suddenly flashed through his mind, and a strange curiosity welled up in his heart.
Seeing this, Shen Xian'an said nothing more.
He felt that Fu Shiyue might have just asked casually and didn't really want to know the security guard's daughter's name.
However, he couldn't help but mutter to himself that Fu Shiyue was thinking too much about Ye Xingran...
