Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 284: If You’re Going to Be Scum, Be Thoroughly Scum

He quickly knelt in front of his little wife, apologizing, "Jiajia, I’m sorry. I acted too rashly and scared you. Don’t be afraid; I promise I won’t do it again."

In fact, he had jumped from the third floor before. This morning, he had tested jumping from the fourth floor and found it very easy, which is why he had jumped just now. He had originally thought Jiajia would understand how effective the medicine was, but it seemed he had miscalculated.

"You’re asking for it! Let me tell you, if anything happens to you, I’ll immediately remarry and have our child call someone else dad!" Su Yijia angrily slapped him twice.

Even though Qin Kaize was sweating from the pain in his arms, he was even more afraid of his little wife’s threats.

"I won’t do it again! I promise! You can’t remarry, and our child can only call me dad." Qin Kaize hugged Su Yijia, gently patting her back to soothe her.

Only by holding the frightened girl could his own heart calm down.

After a while, Su Yijia pushed Qin Kaize away. "Alright, let go. First, talk to Uncle Xia about the important matter."

Reluctantly, he stepped back and found that Xia Weiguo was not in the office. After helping Su Yijia to a seat, he went to find Xia Weiguo.

Seeing him come out, Xia Weiguo glared at him angrily, "You little brat! Can’t you be more cautious? Looks like resting for three months has made you careless."

Qin Kaize had just scared Su Yijia and realized he had been too presumptuous, so he didn’t argue.

When they returned to the office, Xia Weiguo asked, "Your recovery is quite impressive. If everyone with a broken leg used this medicine, would they all be like you?"

"Not really." Su Yijia immediately denied before Qin Kaize could respond. Seeing their puzzled looks, she elaborated, "It only enhances individual talent. If I broke both my legs, I’d be able to jump from the third floor at most. Kaize’s photographic memory indicates that his memory was already extraordinary."

"Indeed." Xia Weiguo understood and nodded. "But regardless, this medicine must not be leaked. Once Ze finishes the call, I’ll contact the Jingdu City headquarters and explain the situation in detail. They might ask Ze to go to Jingdu City for a thorough examination."

"No! At least before Kaize finishes the medicine, he cannot go to Jingdu City," Su Yijia rejected immediately without hesitation. She didn’t care about the higher-ups’ opinions. They had stirred up many prominent families in Jingdu City. If something went wrong and Kaize missed a dose of the Detoxification Pills, she would end up mourning over his body.

"I’ll make it clear to them. Ze won’t be sent on any dangerous missions," Xia Weiguo promised, understanding Su Yijia’s concerns. This was his son, his only hope in life. He couldn’t let Ze be put at risk. He could make the call, but sending Ze to Jingdu City immediately was out of the question.

Ignoring Xia Weiguo’s serious thoughts, Qin Kaize got up and went to the desk to fetch tea leaves. He prepared a cup of tea for Su Yijia, blowing on it to cool it down before placing it in front of her.

"Jiajia, have some water. I’ll take this call and then make lunch for you."

As he answered the phone and introduced himself, the person on the other end immediately began to chatter endlessly. Qin Kaize’s face darkened, his veins bulging as he clenched the receiver tightly. This made Su Yijia nervous.

When Qin Kaize finally hung up, she quickly asked, "What happened?"

"They’ve found Wang Fengsong’s neighbor from Hu City. The current Wang Fengsong is not the real one; in fact, she died twenty years ago. She drowned just half a month after your mother and father’s wedding." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Qin Kaize’s face was grim, and a chilling aura surrounded him.

Su Yijia’s mind raced, but she couldn’t make sense of the chaos.

"There are two possibilities. One is that your father was involved with this woman long ago, but due to her unsavory status, he intended to use your mother’s identity to cover her. He later abandoned your mother for a more advantageous identity. To keep this a secret, the current fake Wang Fengsong partnered with Yin Linjiang, trying to force your mother and grandparents to their deaths. However, their plans didn’t go as intended.

The other possibility is something happened on the train that made your father believe this Wang Fengsong was the wife he married in Hu City. However, upon arriving in Jingdu City, he found this Wang Fengsong wasn’t to his liking, which might explain why their relationship became so distant soon after their marriage."

Qin Kaize picked up a cup, checked its temperature, and handed it to Su Yijia to help her calm down.

"The second possibility seems too far-fetched! In just one day and night, how could someone experience selective amnesia? He remembers having a wife married in Hu City but forgets her appearance and background."

Su Yijia immediately dismissed the second possibility. Inducing amnesia was possible, but such precise amnesia would require a system on par with the opponent’s.

[It’s not impossible! Host, don’t forget about hypnosis?] 666, seeing her confusion, reminded her.

Su Yijia’s heart skipped a beat, but she still found it unlikely.

"Then why didn’t Wang Fengsong use hypnosis to make him love her?"

[Perhaps that’s what was done. How else would they stay married despite not getting along well? But even hypnosis can’t completely erase a strong-willed person’s thoughts; subconscious recognition is normal.]

"Then hypnotize him again." Su Yijia felt a surge of frustration.

Mu Xiaowei wasn’t her biological father, so she didn’t need his love. She wanted Mu Xiaowei to be thoroughly scum, clear and unambiguous, without any sorrowful excuses.

No amount of sorrow could make up for the fact that the original owner’s mother died, and her grandparents spent twenty years in a living hell. In the original book, the body’s owner also faced various plots and torment leading to her death. No excuse could remedy this.

[But if you hypnotize him again, there are only two outcomes: either the previous hypnosis is undone, or he becomes a fool.]

"You can stop talking." Su Yijia, listening to 666’s rambling, could already make some sense of the situation. However, the specifics still needed further investigation. Things couldn’t be this simple; otherwise, her mission would be complete.
