Chapter 518: 352: Helping Lu Cong Recover His Memory_3

Murong Qian deliberately asked.

Upon hearing this, Li Ruoruo hooked up a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth, as if to say, see, I knew it, you’re just a gold digger!

She demeaned Murong Qian in her heart while pulling out a check from her handbag and forcefully placed it on the table. “Here’s ten million. You can have it as long as you leave Brother Cong.”

“Wow, ten million? That’s a lot.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Murong Qian was all smiles, but there was no mirth in her eyes. “So who are you insulting, Miss Li?”

Even without contending for the Murong family’s wealth, her career as a singer alone had brought her an annual income of over one hundred million. It would be strange if she desired this ten million!

However, compared to the five million check that Lady Lu gave four years ago, Lu Cong’s worth did double.

“You—”

Seeing Murong Qian’s sarcastic tone, Li Ruoruo’s face contorted in anger. “Murong Qian, don’t be obstinate. Take the money and leave now. At least you’re ten million richer. If Aunt Lu steps in, you might not be so lucky.”

“Is that so? We’ll see about that.”

Murong Qian said coldly, without hesitation, she stood up.

“Wait—”

Seeing her about to leave, Li Ruoruo hurriedly tried to stop her. “Brother Cong will never love you. He already has a woman he loves. Once he remembers her, he will ditch you. Don’t you want to know about his past?”

Murong Qian’s eyes flickered briefly and then calmly sat down again. “What do you mean? The woman he loves?”

She was certain that the past Ruoruo referred to was her history with Lu Cong.

She wasn’t sure how much Li Ruoruo knew.

“Hmm, he has a woman he loves, are you scared now?”

Li Ruoruo gleefully asked.

Murong Qian snorted coldly, “What should I be afraid of? I don’t care how many ex-girlfriends he had, or how many women he loved before. As long as he loves me now.”

“You—”

Seeing her not affected at all, Li Ruoruo became frustrated. She couldn’t help but provoke her further: “Do you think you can compare to that woman? She is the moonlight in Brother Cong’s heart. Lady Lu had to go to great lengths to hypnotize Brother Cong, making him forget about her. Only then did you have a chance. But once the effect of hypnosis wears off, Brother Cong will remember her sooner or later.”

Hypnosis?

So, it was true that Lu Cong had been forcibly hypnotized, which had made him forget her.

Murong Qian’s face instantly turned pale, and her heart started to ache.

Although she had always suspected this, getting confirmation now, she still found it tough to accept the reality.

Seeing her unsettled, Li Ruoruo thought she had successfully sown discord and couldn’t help gloating: “I advise you to know where you stand. Take the money and break up with Brother Cong. Otherwise, I will find the hypnotherapist who hypnotized Brother Cong and restore his sealed memories. If that happens, you’ll lose both the man and the money.”

“Are you saying that if I find a hypnotherapist, his memory can be restored? Who should I look for?”

Murong Qian’s words were filled with an urgency she couldn’t conceal.

Li Ruoruo glared at her, “Only the original hypnotherapist can do it. As for who he is, why would I tell you? I am not so foolish as to let you bribe him.”

Murong Qian: “…”

“In any case, I am giving you two more minutes to decide. Will you take the money and leave or let Brother Cong regain his memory?”

Murong Qian: “…”

Of course, she would choose the latter, the silly girl.

But, to make it look more convincing, she pretended to persuade Li Ruoruo, “If you get someone to undo Lu Cong’s hypnosis and let him recover his memories, he’ll just immediately go and look for his former girlfriend. Won’t that mean you won’t have a chance either? What’s the advantage for you in doing this?”

Li Ruoruo clenched her fist and took a deep breath, “If I can’t have him, you won’t either. As for that woman, I have my ways to deal with her.”

Murong Qian: “…”

“Two minutes are up, have you made your decision?”

Murong Qian picked up her bag and stood up, “I’m really in love with Lu Cong. No matter what, I won’t leave him. Use whatever means you have!”

“You— you despicable—”

Seeing that she wasn’t deterred at all, Li Ruoruo snatched a cup of coffee from the table, intending to splash it onto Murong Qian.

Before she could make her move, her wrist was grabbed by a strong hand.

Turning angrily, she found Lu Cong had somewhere in the middle came over and shielded Murong Qian behind him.

“Brother Cong, when… when did you come?”

Li Ruoruo’s eyes darted around, feeling guilty.

She didn’t know if he had heard her conversation with Murong Qian just now.

But, it would be better if he did. She could then hasten the restoration of his lost memories through hypnosis. She didn’t believe that they wouldn’t break up by then!

Snort.

Lu Cong snatched the coffee cup from her hand and coldly warned her: “Go back to Hua Country, and never show up in front of her again.”
