After comforting Gu Mengmeng, Chixuan continued, “To prevent something similar to my situation happening again, I only modified a small part of Cole’s memory and did not erase most of the others.”

Gu Mengmeng asked, “What… did you change?”

Chixuan smiled with his eyes and asked, “Mother, can I not say it?”

Gu Mengmeng shook her head with resolve and said, “I know that this is annoying and you may feel that I am overprotective but sorry… all mothers are the same.”

Chixuan laughed and said, “It’s not because there is any problem in you watching me but I’m afraid that if I say it… your partner will kill me.”

Gu Mengmeng held her forehead and said, “Ah, you must have really created some trouble. Don’t worry, just say it. If your beast Father and Lea want to kill you, I will cry.”

Lea sighed helplessly and said, “That’s why I did not want to tell you what your ultimate weapon is.”

Gu Mengmeng looked up at Lea and said without a choice, “But I also can’t watch as Elvis and you cause my son to die, right?”

Lea poked Gu Mengmeng’s little head and said, “Biased.”

Gu Mengmeng did not deny it and only grinned with her eyes.

Chixuan cleared his throat to say, “Since it’s like this, I shall just tell you the truth.”

“Say it.” Gu Mengmeng sat upright and held Chixuan’s hands, as she looked all prepared to listen.

Chixuan pursed his lips and laughed softly. “I… exaggerated Cole’s possessiveness over you, and hinted to him… that he loves you.”

“Cough cough cough… Cough…” Gu Mengmeng started to cough continuously after hearing Chixuan’s words and looked at him with a curious face.

Lea’s brows also twitched and he almost wanted to hit him.

Chixuan rushed over to hug Gu Mengmeng and said, “Mother, allow me to finish.”

Gu Mengmeng held onto Lea and the both of them took a deep breath to compose themselves. Then she said lifelessly, “Continue…”

“In Cole’s original plan, he wanted to obtain you so that he can make use of you to open the doors of time and space. To achieve his goal, he had to brainwash you so that you have the same thinking and motive as him. Then, you will think that what he is doing is right and will help him to complete it.”

Chixuan said in one go, then took a deep breath and continued, “Ever since he poisoned me to take me as hostage, his motive was not to threaten you, but to force you to give up on me. This will prove that you and him are the same kind of person – so long as anyone interferes with you, you will eradicate them even if they are related to you. This was the same way as he had treated Lea daddy and the Eldest Highness of the Snow fox clan previously. But regardless of how many obstacles you faced, you never gave up on me and was willing to plead instead of killing me as the easiest method.”

Gu Mengmeng reached out her hands to hold Chixuan’s face and said, “Are you a fool? I am your mother, how could I kill you to end things?”

Chixuan hugged Gu Mengmeng’s elbow and said in a rare and intimate way, “Actually, I did not know what I was thinking at that time. I only thought that Cole is an extremely important person in my life and has to go to his side no matter what. But seeing you being oppressed by people each time, I even had the same wish as Cole for you to kill me. But seeing that you really could not do it, I even thought of killing myself so that you would be freed.”
