On his face, the searing pain told Moses that all of this was not an illusion.
His Gaia had slapped him across the face!
Something must have happened to her, his Gaia could never do such a thing.
"I apologize, Miss Qian, I think... I should leave now!"
Giving Qian Xueying a slight nod, Gan Yuan turned and walked towards the exit.
Moses chased after her again, blocking her way, and took something out of his pocket, presenting it in front of her, "Look at this!"
It was a photograph—a group picture, in the photograph a man and a woman, the man was Moses, while the girl looked identical to Gan Yuan, only much younger and more reckless.
Moving the photograph closer to her eyes, Moses insisted, "Look at this photo!"
Raising her hand, Gan Yuan snatched the photo from his hand and carefully looked at it.
She hadn’t expected him to carry the photo with him at all times.
"This is you!" Moses focused intently on her, "Even this motorcycle, it was the gift I gave you for your 18th birthday..."
Staring at the photo in her hands, memories of those joyful times flashed before her eyes, and Gan Yuan’s fingers clutched at the photo trembling slightly.
However, she quickly steeled her heart and tossed the photo back into Moses’s chest.
"Sir, you’ve mistaken me for someone else!"
Catching the photo that almost slipped to the ground, Moses frowned and stared at her face, then reached out again and grabbed her arm, dragging her towards the exit.
"I’m taking you home right now, you must be out of your mind, I’ll find a doctor to get you well!"
Gan Yuan tried to pull away, but the man’s grip was like a vice, causing her wrist to ache.
Footsteps sounded hurriedly, Charlie hurried over with another bodyguard, blocking the way of the two.
Moses glared dismissively at the two, "Get lost!"
Charlie furrowed his brow, drew his gun, pointing it at Moses’s face.
"I’ll say it one last time, let her go!"
Qian Xueying screamed, rushing over, shielding herself between the two groups, "Put the gun away!" After commanding, she turned her face to Moses, "Mr. Moses, calm down, please!"
Seizing the opportunity, Gan Yuan forcefully pulled away from the arm Moses was gripping and retreated to Charlie’s side, signaling the men to put away their guns before speaking coldly.
"Miss Qian, I truly apologize, I..."
"No!" Qian Xueying blocked Moses, revealing a smile to Gan Yuan, "I think there must be some misunderstanding here. Miss Gan, please stay for a meal no matter what. Otherwise, my father will be very disappointed. Mr. Moses meant no harm; he is just looking for someone very important to him, and you really do look a lot like her!"
While pleading with Gan Yuan, her left hand gently shook Moses’s arm.
Moses suppressed his anger and stood once again in front of Gan Yuan.
"Miss Gan, please forgive my abruptness, you really do resemble my Gaia."
"Miss Gan!" From not too far away, Duke Locke also approached, "Lunch is ready, why don’t we talk over a meal?!"
"Yes, let’s go have lunch!" Qian Xueying came over, taking Gan Yuan by the arm, "Today, father has specially invited a Michelin three-star chef who has won an international cuisine award. It’s such a delicacy, it would be a shame to miss it!"
