Sour Pickled Peanuts

Chapter 1040 Will Amnesia Also Be Selective?

Qin Hanchu's words left Sun Ningrou in disbelief.

The current "Ye Changqing" was merely a fallen rich young master. What right did he have to contend with Wang Chen?

"Impossible? If it was really you who broke it, you wouldn't be standing here unharmed."

Sun Ningrou was well aware of Wang Chen's vengeful nature. If "Ye Changqing" had broken his arm, Wang Chen would surely retaliate.

Given Ye Changqing's status and strength, how could he withstand Wang Chen's revenge?

Even if Wang Chen was no match for Qin Hanchu, Wang Chen's family had plenty of subordinates.

"Go ask for the answer yourself."

With these words, Qin Hanchu walked forward, followed by Xu Zhuang, whose face was filled with shock.

Sun Ningrou desperately wanted to know the truth, so she took out her phone and called Wang Chen.

The call was connected shortly after. Wang Chen answered with a hint of annoyance, "Why are you still calling me?"

"Did Ye Changqing break your arm?" Sun Ningrou asked directly.

Wang Chen retorted in surprise, "How do you know? Who told you?"

"It really was him who broke it? And you didn't retaliate against him?" Sun Ningrou hadn't expected that what "Ye Changqing" said was actually true.

"I asked you who told you!" In Wang Chen's mind, this incident was a humiliation. Anyone who dared to spread it outside would not be let off the hook.

Sun Ningrou replied, "Ye Changqing told me."

"I..."

Upon hearing that it was Ye Changqing who had informed Sun Ningrou, Wang Chen immediately lost his temper.

Although he considered it a disgrace, he knew very well that he couldn't afford to offend "Ye Changqing."

"What exactly happened? You were crippled and didn't retaliate; this isn't like you."

Sun Ningrou knew Wang Chen well, so she found it incomprehensible.

So much time had passed, yet Ye Changqing was completely fine?

Logically, Wang Chen should have crippled Ye Changqing's arm.

"Damn it, you think I didn't retaliate?"

"Ye Changqing isn't an ordinary person. I can't afford to mess with him."

"If my dad hadn't compensated them with one hundred million, I would have been crippled by now."

"It's all your fault, you damn bitch. If it weren't for you, why would I have provoked him?"

"I'm warning you, don't call me again, and don't tell anyone about this, or I won't spare you."

Hearing the dial tone, Sun Ningrou stood frozen in disbelief.

Wang Chen's words made her feel as if she were dreaming.

Hadn't Ye Changqing fallen on hard times?

Why did Wang Chen say he wasn't an ordinary person, and that even Wang Chen couldn't afford to provoke Ye Changqing?

Most importantly, Wang Chen's father had compensated with one hundred million to save his son.

...

Meanwhile, Qin Hanchu and Xu Zhuang had walked a considerable distance.

Xu Zhuang exclaimed in shock, "Holy crap, was what you said earlier true? You crippled Wang Chen's arm?"

"It was fake, just to bluff them," Qin Hanchu said with a smile.

Xu Zhuang asked suspiciously, "Really? Then how did you know Wang Chen's arm was broken?"

"I happened to witness it nearby. Wang Chen provoked a big shot, so he had to accept his fate."

Xu Zhuang laughed heartily, "No wonder. This brat was too arrogant; he was bound to run into trouble."

"Let's not talk about this. Let's go eat first."

A moment later, the two entered a restaurant.

Although this restaurant wasn't of the highest caliber, it was very famous in Jianghai City.

When Qin Hanchu and his companion arrived, there was already a long queue. They waited for over ten minutes before getting a table.

As soon as they sat down, Xu Zhuang looked towards the entrance.

"What are you looking at?"

Qin Hanchu turned his head and saw a beautiful woman walking in.

This woman had a fiery figure, and her exquisite features were filled with the arrogance of someone from a superior background.

"Now you know what I'm looking at?" Xu Zhuang said.

Qin Hanchu nodded, "She's quite pretty, but that arrogant expression doesn't suit you."

"What did you say?" Xu Zhuang looked at Qin Hanchu in astonishment.

Qin Hanchu was confused by Xu Zhuang's gaze, "What's wrong? Weren't you looking at a beauty?"

"You don't recognize her?" Xu Zhuang frowned, "Has your head not recovered from the accident?"

Qin Hanchu realized that this woman might be someone Ye Changqing knew.

"Could she also be my ex-girlfriend?" Qin Hanchu said awkwardly, "I did hit my head before, and my memory is indeed quite fragmented."

"Does amnesia also have selective memory?"

"Uh..." Xu Zhuang scratched his head. It seemed there was some truth to that. "This woman's name is Zhou Hanqing. She's the eldest daughter of your mother's current husband."

Qin Hanchu showed a look of sudden realization, "I can tell she's not easy to get along with. She probably doesn't recognize me, right?"

"What do you think?" Xu Zhuang said, speechless.

As the two were chatting, Zhou Hanqing's gaze fell upon Qin Hanchu.

Qin Hanchu already knew the answer; this person knew him.

"You're here too?" Zhou Hanqing said.

"This is an affordable restaurant. Is it so unbelievable that I'm here? It's rather unusual for you to show up here."

Hearing Qin Hanchu's tone towards Zhou Hanqing, Xu Zhuang quickly interjected, "Hey, you told me she had a decent attitude towards you because her younger sister and brother were kicked out by your mom. Guess why?"

"Ah?"

Zhou Hanqing's expression was very haughty, giving the impression that she was difficult to approach.

Qin Hanchu had assumed she was here to mock "Ye Changqing," which was why he spoke to her with a hostile tone.

Although Zhou Hanqing appeared difficult to get along with, she was still reasonable in her dealings.

Ye Changqing's mother had married his father, and she felt Qin Hanchu deserved some consideration.

Therefore, she wasn't particularly close to Ye Changqing, but she didn't oppose him entering the family.

Her younger siblings, however, didn't want Qin Hanchu to enter the house, lest he compete with them for property.

Ye Changqing's tone made Zhou Hanqing somewhat puzzled. The former Ye Changqing didn't speak like this.

"He hit his head before and his memory is a bit confused," Xu Zhuang continued with a smile. "He didn't even recognize you just now."

"Really?" Zhou Hanqing looked at Qin Hanchu with suspicion.

Qin Hanchu smiled, "I apologize, but your expression isn't very pleasing."

"Your words aren't very pleasing either. You guys continue eating; I'm leaving."

Zhou Hanqing's expression didn't change much. After speaking, she followed the waiter to a nearby table.

"I feel like you're acting strange. Are you really suffering from amnesia?" Xu Zhuang stared at Qin Hanchu and asked.

Qin Hanchu smiled, "It's not amnesia, could it be possession?"

"Haha... it's not impossible," Xu Zhuang burst into laughter.

Qin Hanchu said, "Order our food. I'm starving."

More than ten minutes later, the dishes they had ordered were served.

While the two were eating, Zhou Hanqing was also dining.

Qin Hanchu had assumed she was meeting someone, but to his surprise, she was alone.

"My boss needs the car this afternoon, so I can't accompany you around." Qin Hanchu had business to attend to, so he made an excuse to leave.

Xu Zhuang nodded, "Work is important. Let's meet again when we have time."
