Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1296: What Should We Do About Third Young Master?

Qing Yi’s steps suddenly halted, and his whole body froze in place.

His heartbeat went off rhythm in an instant. He suppressed his inner surge of excitement, fear, or joy, turned rigidly around, looked at Mu Han, and forced himself to speak calmly, asking:

"You... what did you just call me?"

"Did I call you wrong? I, I heard someone call you that..."

Seeing Qing Yi’s odd expression, Mu Han thought he had upset him by calling his name incorrectly, and immediately felt uneasy.

Hearing his reply, Qing Yi didn’t know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or to feel heartbroken and sad. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

He thought he didn’t have amnesia.

He thought he had amnesia but still remembered him...

Turns out, neither was true.

Qing Yi smiled, but his eyes felt dry and uncomfortable.

"I am Qing Yi, you weren’t wrong."

Hearing this, Mu Han’s tense heart relaxed.

Then he looked at him with full expectation and cautiously asked,

"...And what about me?"

"Your surname is Mu, and your name is Mu Han."

"Mu, Han."

The name felt very unfamiliar to him, just like Qing Yi.

"Yes, you are a doctor who saves lives."

"A doctor?" He was somewhat surprised, not expecting his profession to be so noble.

"That’s right, your medical skills are unmatched, even by the top national medical teams." When Qing Yi said this, his eyes were full of pride and honor.

"Really? Was I really that impressive?" Mu Han was a bit excited.

"Of course."

"Thank you."

Thank you?

Qing Yi’s smile was stiff for a moment, then returned to normal.

"You stay here for now, I’ll go make some noodles for you. After you finish eating, take a good rest."

"Okay."

When Bai Yi came over, he saw the drunk sitting on the sofa eating noodles, while Qing Yi watched him from the side.

Bai Yi gestured to Qing Yi, calling him outside.

"Qing Yi, Young Master Gu said he knows some doctors who are quite knowledgeable and accomplished in treating amnesia, and he said he could help us get in touch."

Qing Yi’s expression changed immediately.

"I said he’s fine now."

"He may be fine, but what about Third Young Master and Second Young Master? They are still missing, and even... even their life or death is uncertain right now. We only have two clues: the drunk and Bai Tang. I’ve already asked Hong Yi to talk to Bai Tang. Besides them, no one knows what really happened, and only when they recall can we know the truth. Have you considered that the Third Young Master could be in danger right now, just waiting for us to rescue him?"

"..." Qing Yi’s face turned pale.

"I understand that amnesia might be a blessing for the drunk, but what about Third Young Master? We’ve searched both the Capital City and the Holy City, but we couldn’t find them."

"Moreover, how can you be sure that the drunk won’t remember anything later? What if he remembers everything later and realizes that he might have missed the best time to rescue the Third Young Master because of his amnesia? What will you have him do then?"

Bai Yi’s words left Qing Yi unable to argue.

He turned his head and looked at Mu Han, who, unaware of what had happened, was nervously watching him from the sofa.

Yes, Xiaohan is fine, but the Third Young Master still hasn’t returned...

If someday Xiaohan remembers everything and realizes he didn’t manage to save the Third Young Master because of his amnesia, how guilty would he feel?

How could he be so selfish and do this, letting down the Third Young Master and Xiaohan?

Bai Yi placed a hand on Qing Yi’s shoulder.

"Qing Yi, a person’s emotional knot can’t be untied through amnesia. This isn’t relief; it’s avoidance. You should trust the drunk."
