Gong Jie remained silent.

Now that Yun Shishi was still unconscious, he couldn’t make a decision on his own whether to let Alice take Gong Fan away. That was the problem. He too felt that if Gong Fan could return to the Hurricane Group with Alice, it might be a good choice for the boy. But it was not a decision he could make.

“If Shishi wakes up and finds Gong Fan gone, she’ll go nuts.”

Alice was silent for a moment. She put her hand to her forehead. “Why do I feel like she’s the one who’s really dependent?”

Gong Jie was stunned by the remark.

Alice continued, “She used to say that the boy was so dependent on her. In my opinion, on the contrary, she seems more dependent on him. Their mother-and-son relationship is in a kind of impasse. The boy relies on her only because she needs him, and she relies on him out of guilt and out of her mother’s love. But more than that, she is used to this inseparable relationship between mother and son. In protecting him she achieves a sense of satisfaction for herself. At the end of the day, don’t you think such dependence is morbid? She can protect the boy for a while, but can she protect him forever?”

Gong Jie was speechless for a moment. “She just cares too much.”

“If she cares too much, it will become a sickness. That won’t do. If she continues to rely on the boy, will she be unable to live without him in the future? At the end of the day, the child, whether it’s Youyou or Little Yichen, is just a passing visitor in her life. Neither of them is her life partner. Her life partner is Mu Yazhe. They’re the married couple. It’s their lives that are tied together as one.”

Gong Jie finally spoke up at that. “I agree too. She’s too dependent on Youyou, overly concerned, whether it’s out of protectiveness or heartache, but…”

“But this is not permanent.” Alice chimed in. “It might not be good for Youyou to stay here. For one thing, the inability to monitor his physical condition, including his mental state, is detrimental. If he comes back to the Hurricane Group with me, it might greatly improve the situation.”

The man nodded in agreement. “Aye, aye. How about this… You discuss it with Mu Yazhe, and if he agrees, you’re free to take the boy with you.”

“Uh huh…” Alice stood up and said, “Got it.”

…

Alice went of her own accord to discuss the matter with Mu Yazhe. The man listened with less resistance than Alice had expected. The difference, where it came to him, was that while he loved the boy, he was not as dependent on him as Yun Shishi was.

On the contrary, he thought it would be a good idea for both Youyou and Gong Fan to go back to Hurricane with Alice. “You can take him.”

Alice was surprised when he agreed. “I thought you’d disagree.”

“Why would I disagree?”

“Because…”

“Because I think you might erase his memory again?”

Alice made no comment.

“First of all, other factors aside, it was on Gong Shaoying’s order that you erased his memories, right? You couldn’t oppose him and could only follow the given order.”

“Yes.”

“But Gong Shaoying won’t order you around like that now. What else do I have to worry about?”
