The fragmented memories of Guan Lei hit Shen Xi like a sudden wave. She was engulfed by the memories. Her heart was pierced through by countless sharp arrows.
She was in so much pain that she couldn’t breathe. Her entire body was trembling, but the memories in her mind were super clear.
In the next second, Shen Xi felt as if her brain had been split open by a giant axe. In an instant, she lost consciousness.
Shen Yan immediately held Shen Xi who had fallen to the ground. Lu Shan’s heart ached so much that she could only cry. Zhao Yuan kept calling Shen Xi’s name with a worried face. They hurriedly sent Shen Xi to the hospital.
Guan Bo continued to guard Guan Lei’s body together with Guan Yan, while they asked Li Xue to send Su Han to the hospital.
When Shen Xi woke up again, her world was filled with plain whiteness and a strong smell of disinfectant.
Lu Shan who had been paying attention to Shen Xi, immediately stepped forward and held her hand. “Xi, how are you feeling now? Does your head still hurt? Does your body still hurt?”
Shen Xi didn’t answer. She just stared at the ceiling quietly. Lu Shan was so scared that she cried. “Did you really have a mental breakdown like what the doctor said?”
“Xi, talk to Dad and Mom. Don’t scare us!” Shen Yan stepped forward and said worriedly.
Gu Chen who was at the side, also went forward to look at Shen Xi nervously. He was there when the doctor explained about Shen Xi’s illness.
When he heard the doctor say that Shen Xi might have schizophrenia from too much emotional stimulation, Gu Chen suddenly regretted it.
When he asked someone to hypnotize Shen Xi, he knew the consequences.
If Shen Xi wanted to forcefully break this hypnotized memory, the two different memories would strongly affect her consciousness which might cause her to have schizophrenia.
The fake memory would be when Shen Xi was with him, while the real memories would be when she was with Guan Lei.
Therefore, Gu Chen made a bet.
He thought that even if that was the worst scenario, he still had a 50% chance
of winning, right?
He could help Shen Xi kill the memories when she was with Guan Lei then. Wouldn’t that be great?
However, he did not expect that Guan Lei’s death would have such a huge impact on Shen Xi. It caused Shen Xi’s consciousness and memories to mix together. She got such a huge impact that she could possibly become a mentally retarded fool.
Gu Chen felt uncomfortable in his heart. He just wanted Shen Xi to be by his side, not to make her go crazy.
“Xi, look at me,” Gu Chen said to Shen Xi.
At this moment, Gu Chen couldn’t care about anything else. He didn’t want Shen Xi to go crazy.
However, before Shen Xi could turn her eyes around, he was pushed away by Lu Shan.
Lu Shan’s eyes were red with anger. She stared at Gu Chen and yelled loudly, “It’s because of you. If you hadn’t hypnotized her, she wouldn’t have become like this. Don’t think that I don’t know it’s you just because you don’t admit it! Shen Yan, call someone. I want to kill Gu Chen immediately! I want to beat him to death!”
Gu Chen was pushed aside by Lu Shan. He remained silent. He knew that if Shen Xi went crazy, he would be the culprit, so he had nothing to say.
Shen Yan protected Lu Shan while he gave Gu Chen a hard punch, knocking him against the wall with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
“The Shen and Lu families have never been involved in the battle between the Gu and the Guan families. However, you hypnotized Xi and tampered with her memory, causing her to go crazy. We won’t let you go!” Shen Yan’s tone was filled with anger.
Previously, they did not settle this score with Gu Chen because Shen Yan and Lu Shan thought that Shen Xi had a chance to recover. In addition, Shen Xi had always thought that Gu Chen was her lover, so they did not do anything. They were afraid that if something happened to Gu Chen, Shen Xi would also be affected.
Now, Shen Yan couldn’t bear it anymore.
Gu Chen had the guts to mistreat the daughter of the Shen and Lu families, so he had to be prepared to get it back.
Gu Chen’s heart instantly became heavy. The Shen and Lu families were not involved in politics, but they were old aristocratic families in the capital. They had complicated relationships with various forces in the capital.
Back then, he was able to scheme against the Shen Corporation because he caught them off guard. Otherwise, he would not have the chance to do so.
Therefore, if he was targeted by them, the Gu family would probably be attacked from both sides..
