Chapter 63: Memories

Mo Chou woke up right in time the next day. She had dreamt of her previous life, mainly her childhood and was feeling a little disoriented.

She was just staring at the phone which she had taken from the target the day before in daze when Mo Li knocked on the door. Mo Li wanted to call her for breakfast as she had ordered the chef to make Mo Chou’s favorite dishes.

After Mo Li saw Mo Chou, she immediately asked her if she was alright with concern. Mo Chou did her best to act cheerful but Mo Li thought she was scared from what had happened at the University.

"Do you want to skip University today? Mom will take you to have fun if you want to"

Mo Chou was a little tempted but still decided to go to her classes. "No mom, I actually enjoy attending the classes" and Mo Chou really did enjoy going to university and just hanging out with her friends.

"Then, what about a movie night tonight?" Mo Li asked.

"Sure" Mo Chou agreed as she enjoyed spending time with her family so she had no reason to deny. She could do her investigation after finishing the movie.

By the time Mo Chou had breakfast and got ready for university, she had already forgotten about her dreams.

She sat in her car as usual and watched the scenery through the window.

Mo Chou exited the car after arriving at the University and found Lu Jinhai waiting for her at the same spot as usual. Seeing him instantly cheered her up and she walked towards him.

When Mo Chou finally closed the distance, she saw that Lu Jinhai looked a little tired and even had slight dark circles under his eyes. "You look like you slept great," she said jokingly.

"Umhm, I dreamt of you" Lu Jinhai also replied with a slight smirk.

Mo Chou didn’t want to be outdone this time, so she said, "did I appear as a demon chasing after you"?

"Not a demon and I wouldn’t mind you chasing after me at all" Lu Jinhai bopped Mo Chou’s nose.

He then turned around and started walking. Mo Chou was in a daze and didn’t follow him, she just stood there with her mouth slightly open. Lu Jinhai saw that Mo Chou wasn’t following him so he turned around and said, "you coming"?

Mo Chou came out of her daze and followed him, ’this guy is getting more and more dangerous nowadays, I should start keeping a distance from him’. But of course it was just her thoughts, Mo Chou didn’t really plan on keeping a distance from Lu Jinhai.

Lu Jinhai was in a fantastic mood after seeing that Mo Chou was completely fine. He even got to use his ’charm’ to seduce her and he could see her slightly red ears peeking through her long hair which made him feel happy.

It was a confirmation that Mo Chou was getting affected by him little by little. It was still not enough for the greedy Lu Jinhai though as he couldn’t wait to claim Mo Chou as his life partner as soon as possible.

They met up with Li Chen and Huang Chunhua inside the University. Mo Chou heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that both of them seemed to have let go of their anger and were acting as normal.

Li Chen liked to show Mo Chou what the students had posted, especially all the photos the students took of Mo Chou secretly and posted online.

Mo Chou felt that it was quite ironic that there were more photos of herself on the Internet than on her phone’s gallery. She didn’t really like taking pictures of herself and preferred to enjoy the special moments rather than capture them.

Li Chen excitedly showed Mo Chou the latest post about her which was gaining quite the popularity. Mo Chou took a look and was stunned for a moment.

She immediately recognized the pavilion, it was the one where she and Lu Jinhai were resting the day before. Mo Chou looked at herself and Lu Jinhai in the photos. Lu Jinhai looked like his handsome self while sleeping, just like how she remembered.

But then she looked at herself in the picture and was stunned. Did she really look like that? Could she even make an expression like that? She was basically looking at Lu Jinhai’s sleeping form as if she was looking at someone she adored.

The whole picture gave her a romantic vibe which made Mo Chou look at it in disbelief. It didn’t look like it was edited at all. But how? She took a glance at Lu Jinhai who was texting someone beside her and thought ’am I falling for Lu Jinhai’?

She immediately rejected the idea. Lu Jinhai was her ’friend’ who was a little mischievous and irritating at times but she ’absolutely’ didn’t have any romantic thoughts about him, she just admired his handsome face that’s all.

Lu Jinhai finally put down his phone, he was a little irritated. His secretary Huo Jichen had fallen sick, so he couldn’t continue to delay any of his work now.

Although he had been working continuously after the University classes were over, he had to juggle between two different jobs after all and was a little behind on checking the recent company documents. Lu Jinhai let out a tired sigh. ’Huo Jichen just had to fall sick at this time, couldn’t he wait a little’?

He had no choice but to head to the office immediately to complete all the delayed work now. Lu Jinhai had turned to Mo Chou to inform her that he would be leaving when he saw that she was focused on something that Li Chen was showing her.

Lu Jinhai took a look and saw that it was a picture of him and Mo Chou.

He really liked the picture right after looking at it once and wanted to ask for the picture from Li Chen later but he didn’t know if he would be able to complete all the work and be present for the classes tomorrow so he just mentally noted the name of the account that had posted the picture.

This way, Lu Jinhai could download the photos himself once he was free.

He finally tapped Mo Chou on her shoulder and told her that he had to leave for an urgent matter and might not make it tomorrow too.

Mo Chou immediately felt a little reluctant when she heard that he had to leave but she couldn’t possibly ask him to stay just for her, so she just told him to text her when he was free.

After Lu Jinhai left, Mo Chou spent the whole day feeling a little lonely.

"Did it work?" Huo Zhai asked Huo Jichen.

"Yes, he finally agreed to return and finish the pending work. I really owe you one" replied Huo Jichen.

Huo Zhai just smiled and said, "don’t forget what you just said".

He was laughing inside as he thought of what he should ask for his favor.

’Just wait, I still haven’t forgotten about last time’.

"Have you found out about her identity?" Reaper asked his subordinate.

"N_no sir, we couldn’t find anything about her. The company from which the servers were hired also have no idea who she is. We did some questioning and they said that she had appeared that day claiming she was a new hire and they believed her, hence why she was at the mansion" informed the subordinate.

"Go and ask 005 to run her face through the system for any matches, oh and tell him to try the dark web too" ordered Reaper as he felt that this ’person’ was going to be quite hard to find.

Reaper re-watched the footage of the server again for the twelfth time. The reason he wanted to find the identity of this server was that he could see her heading towards the third floor right around the time he was having a meeting.

Although there were no cameras on the third floor entirely, he could still calculate the time of her entrance and exit. This ’server’ had definitely seen something but he was also a little puzzled as he would have noticed the presence of anyone who was trying to sneak up on him.

"Does she have a special identity perhaps? An enemy spy? A trained assassin?"

The thing that puzzled him the most was the fact that the server reminded him of someone. But they looked completely different, even the height, body proportions, everything was completely different.

’She does walk like her though, is that why I couldn’t help but remember ’her’?’ Reaper asked himself.

’I should really forget about her’ he thought but Reaper couldn’t make himself forget the bright girl who adoringly called him ’big brother’.

He couldn’t forget her sad and hurt eyes when he tried to distance himself from her.

Reaper had even tried going into therapy as he dreamt of holding her cold body in his arms every single night.

’My little one is probably in heaven right now’.
