Chapter 12: Pervert after pervert
Li Lanni felt her back go tense as though she had just been shocked by an electric current. Where did this topic suddenly emanate from? She was not ready for this. How could her mother not warn her before bringing up such a serious matter?
"Lanni, is something the matter?" Li Yuming had originally expected that her daughter wouldn’t be too welcoming of the idea of emigrating. She had grown up in this country and in this very house. Even for someone with temporary amnesia, there had to be some sort of attachment with the place one had spent all their life. It would not be easy to leave out of the blue.
"Mom, can we not go? I feel like I have a lot to do in this country. Also, didn’t the doctor already say it? Being in the places I have frequented before will help me recover my memory. Mom, I do not want to be in the dark forever." She wanted to know her past. Not from stories or tiny fragments that she didn’t understand. She wanted to know all of it.

It hurt to be unable to remember one’s friends, hobbies and past, unable to go to school and even worse, Li Lanni didn’t even know what kind of person she was. She only had to rely on hers and Ji Feifei’s words to know her own personality.
She knew how important this place was to Lanni. However, she would never feel calm as long as she didn’t know what exactly happened seven months ago. Her instinct was strongly against the hypothesis that Li Lanni had rammed her car against a tree, causing it to roll down the cliff. It seemed too far-fetched. Her heart strongly believed that someone had tried to murder her daughter and Lanni might still be in danger.
However, she couldn’t possibly pull her by the hair and shove her into a plane. "Lanni, mother understands. I will let you think about it."
Li Lanni nodded. There were things she didn’t know how to tell her mother.
How could she tell her that she had strong suspicions against her so called childhood friend Ji Feifei? How could she bring up that mysterious person who had been the one to warn her about Ji Feifei? It was too hard to talk about these two things without proper investigation. She needed more time...
