Ever since he called Mo Hao, Seventh Uncle Mo had been feeling uneasy.

Finally, one afternoon, his expression suddenly changed, and he was hit by a wave of dizziness.

After a pause, Seventh Uncle Mo looked around blankly, holding his throbbing forehead, “How did I lose my memory again? How did I get here?”

He looked around and his expression immediately changed.

“Where’s my walking stick?”

The nanny quickly handed the walking stick over and said, “Sir, it’s time to take your medicine.”

Elder Mo covered his head and went to take his medicine.

Ever since two months ago, Elder Mo had often suffered from intermittent amnesia. Often, Elder Mo would suddenly lose his memory and when he had regained it, he would appear in an unexpected place.

When he went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor suggested that he transfer to the psychiatric department.

It was not easy for Seventh Uncle Mo to overcome his psychological problems and go to the psychiatric department. In the end, the quack doctor said a bunch of nonsense that he did not understand and prescribed a bunch of drugs.

However, he did not seem to get better after taking them.

With this thought in mind, Seventh Uncle Mo widened his eyes and said, “What kind of drugs do I need to take? These drugs taste terrible. If they don’t work after, I won’t take them anymore in the future.”

After saying that, he returned to his room in a huff. He wanted to turn on a television program to watch, but the television, which had been turned off, suddenly lit up. The screen flashed and a young man with golden hair appeared.

“Hi, can you see me?” The man greeted him.

Seventh Uncle Mo looked at the television and said in a low voice, “Am I poisoned?”

“No, no, no, you’re not poisoned, but I guess in a way you are poisoned.” Jin Mao laughed heartily, revealing his white teeth. “Seventh Uncle Mo, have you heard of Yun Shang?”

Having his identity suddenly exposed, Seventh Uncle Mo’s pupils dilated. When he heard the words Yun Shang, Seventh Uncle Mo suddenly stopped and looked at the man on the television in disbelief.

Jin Mao was very sure that after Seventh Uncle Mo heard the words “Yun Shang,” he would be silent and afraid. The truth was just as Jin Mao thought. The corner of Seventh Uncle Mo’s mouth twitched, and he finally asked with trembling hands, “Who are you exactly? What do you want to tell me?”

Yun Shang did not only represent a bar. It was more like a gathering place for high-end people. Moreover, Yun Shang held many secrets, so many that it made people tremble in fear.

Jin Mao was somewhat satisfied with Seventh Uncle Mo’s reaction, so he continued with a chuckle, “I just want to ask you, have you been feeling dizzy recently, and are your memories often in a mess?”

Seventh Uncle Mo stopped and his hands trembled. Not long after, he broke out in a cold sweat.

“How… How did you know?”

Jin Mao tilted his head and said in a flustered manner, “I don’t just know these things. I know everything that you know and don’t.”

This sentence was like a tongue twister, but it made Seventh Uncle Mo’s scalp go numb.

Seventh Uncle Mo asked in trepidation, “What… what do you want to say?”

Jin Mao flipped his hair. “Sigh, I say, you don’t seem to know a good person when you see one.”

In Seventh Uncle Mo’s eyes, this action also seemed like a threat, so he didn’t dare to say anything.

“I’m really here to help you, why don’t you believe me?”

Seventh Uncle Mo said in a trembling voice, “You basta— no, no, what do you want to do, sir? What do you want me to do? As long as I can do it, I will help you.”

Jin Mao pursed his lips. He was more or less unhappy. He was used to being unscrupulous. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to be a good person. In the end, it was the first time he had kept it up to this extent.

He was unhappy, so he naturally did not want to play any more tricks with brother Mo. he said straightforwardly, “You suddenly lost consciousness. It’s not a problem with your body or mind. Someone has hypnotized you.”

“Hypnotized?!” Seventh Uncle Mo’s voice trembled. He realized that he had lost his composure and quickly withdrew. He put on an anxious look, which made Jin Mao feel even more unhappy.

“Alright, I can’t be bothered to talk to you anymore. I’ll just give you a reminder. Don’t be a scapegoat who doesn’t even know how he dies.”

After Jin Mao finished speaking, he directly cut off the connection. Seventh Uncle Mo’s chubby face was reflected on the pitch-black television screen.

Seventh Uncle Mo’s expression changed for a while. In the end, he suddenly laughed with a hint of craftiness, “So it’s hypnosis. Yun Shang’s men are really stupid. If I had this information, how could I tell them so easily? Naturally, I have to plan well and get some benefits first.”

However, the smile only lasted for a short while, and Seventh Uncle Mo’s expression turned ugly again. Who on earth had the guts to do such a thing to him?!

On the other side, Jin Mao cut off contact with Seventh Uncle Mo, and his expression changed from a little defeated to his usual careless smile, “Boss, what do you mean? That Seventh Uncle Mo’s acting is terrible. Why do you want me to pretend that I can’t tell?”

Chi Xiao stirred the green leaves in front of him and said nonchalantly, “If you watch two dogs biting at each other’s fur, wouldn’t you be happier than having to clean it up yourself?”
