Gu Ziyu was surprised, “He… he… he has memories from the previous life?”

Gu Ci nodded, “He regained them a few days before New Year’s Eve.”

Gu Ziyu was both astonished and elated. No wonder his dad had hugged him that day and called him his precious son. With a joyful expression, he asked, “So, in Dad’s heart, am I his son?”

Seeing the happiness in the eyes of Gu Ziyu, Gu Ci felt a mixture of emotions, both tender and bittersweet, as she nodded.

The visible joy in Gu Ziyu made his feelings for Lu Zhiyuan extremely complex. He had grown up without a father’s love, and he had once resented Lu Zhiyuan because he had brought disaster to them. In his darkest moments, he couldn’t help but think that life would have been better without a father.

But without a father, there would be no him!

He loved and hated at the same time. The first time he saw Lu Zhiyuan was on the racetrack. He had been watching Lu Zhiyuan’s race for a long time, and one day, Lu Zhiyuan had walked right up to him from the video.

So young and full of life, this was his dad!

But Third Young Master didn’t like anyone taking Gu Ci’s attention away. Gu Ziyu didn’t love Third Grandfather either. He felt a complicated mixture of love and hatred for both of his fathers. It seemed like he was surplus in either of their eyes.

In essence, he was an extra in this world, and that feeling was uncomfortable.

He longed for Lu Zhiyuan’s love and acknowledgment.

No wonder Dad knew that he had lived to the age of eighteen in his previous life. But how did he regain his memories? Dad had already died when he was born.

“Mom, why does Dad have memories too? Did he also reincarnate?”

“This is a bit complicated and hard to explain,” Gu Ci said softly. “I still can’t understand his explanation, so I don’t know how to tell you. You should ask him yourself.”

“Is he… human?”

This was the key question!

Gu Ci looked puzzled, “If he’s not human, what is he?”

“A ghost?”

Gu Ci paused.

Gu Ziyu’s idea was even more bizarre than Lu Zhiyuan’s story!

“If you want to know, ask him yourself.”

Gu Ziyu nodded, not wanting to trouble Gu Ci any further, but he was bothered by one thing, “Dad has regained his memories, so why did you… break up?”

“You should ask him yourself.”

“Mom, if 1 acknowledge Dad as my father, will you be unhappy?” Gu Ziyu asked cautiously. “If you’re not happy, 1 won’t recognize him. In my heart, Mom is the most important.”

“Why would Mom be unhappy?” Gu Ci chuckled softly. “You’re our baby born from our love, and we were both looking forward to your birth, no matter what the outcome is between me and him. You two are father and son, and having one more person who loves you makes Mom very happy.”

Gu Ziyu saw that his mother seemed completely honest, and his heart settled. He couldn’t help but recall the events of tonight with MSS and his smile faded.

“Mom, after Uncle left today, they had a meeting to discuss how to distribute power.”

“Is there any conclusion to that?” Gu Ci asked.

“They all want to place their own people in key positions. There are eleven departments in the Triad, and each department wants to install their own people, especially in the Finance Department and Information Security Center. They want to place forty-five people in total, and they all seem to take it for granted,” Gu Ziyu explained. He knew that Jiang Junlin would not allow this to happen. “This is going to be a tough battle.”

“Brother won’t agree to that,” Gu Ci said softly. “He might accept a maximum of three people, but he won’t let anyone into the Finance Department or Information Security Center!”

“Can Uncle refuse?” Gu Ziyu hesitated. “His identity is exposed, and now he’s a target. Everyone wants a piece of the pie. These people are all very strong-willed, and Uncle may not be able to refuse them all.”

Gu Ci chuckled and said, “People will have to be placed, but which ones to place, that can be carefully considered.”

Gu Ziyu grinned mischievously and said, “Mom…”

He awkwardly rubbed his nose. “Our MSS also wants to place people. Can 1 mention it to Uncle?”

Gu Ci thought about it.

Her son’s eyes showed a mix of guilt and ambition.

“The triad is under Uncle’s control, and if MSS wants to place people, you can go ahead,” Gu Ci said, distancing herself from the matter. “It’s not my concern.”

“Mom…” Gu Ziyu wrapped his arms around her waist and acted spoiled. “I’m your son, your own flesh and blood, the person who loves you the most in the whole world. Uncle isn’t, hmph.”

Gu Ci playfully tapped his nose, and Gu Ziyu continued, “Anyway, we have to place people, so why not place our own? It’s a mutual benefit, and at least we can be considered a neutral party.”

“Brother might place a few people, and MSS won’t be able to compete with them, so you come and ask me?” Gu Ci asked.

“Mom, you’re wise!” Gu Ziyu said with a hint of exaggeration. “If Uncle only agrees to place three or four people, we won’t stand a chance.”

Gu Ci ruffled his hair and said, “Well then, think about what you can do to make Uncle prioritize you.”

“Alright, 1 just want to open a back door, that’s all,” Gu Ziyu said in a playful and cheeky manner. “Mom, neither my real mom nor my uncle will open a back door for me. How sad.”

Gu Ci couldn’t help but laugh at his dramatic expression.

At the Global Center, downstairs in the training ground. freew(e)bnove(l)

Lu Zhiyuan was undergoing rehabilitation. His injuries had not fully healed yet, and he had started with simple rehabilitation exercises. After the Lantern Festival, the new racing season had begun, and the drivers of the Royal Dynasty Racing Team were all in closed training. They aimed to maintain the team’s points even if Lu Zhiyuan couldn’t compete. He was actively delegating authority for Black Hawk, giving general directions while leaving the specifics to Ji Chi and Rong Li.

The coach said, “Third Young Master, your training time has exceeded the limit for today. You can’t continue.”

“I know!” Lu Zhiyuan wiped his sweat. In the winter, he was wearing summer training gear, and his T-shirt was soaked, clinging to his body, accentuating his youthful and tall figure, with his muscular lines looking particularly attractive.

The female staff on the racetrack couldn’t help but blush when they saw him.

“Can the recovery time be shortened to half a year?” Lu Zhiyuan asked, “I feel like my body is recovering pretty well.”

The team doctor frowned, “Third Young Master, this is an illusion, don’t be too optimistic. Unless you don’t want your hand anymore.”

Lu Zhiyuan felt that his body was indeed recovering quite well. He could still train for two hours, but the coach and the team doctor vigorously shook their heads, not allowing him to continue training.

“Then let me take a lap in the training car.”

Lu Zhiyuan got into the training car and drove onto the track, not as fast as before because his body couldn’t handle it. He enjoyed the feeling of the track. The team doctor nudged the coach and said, “Have you noticed that Third Young Master has become a bit more stable after this crash?”

“Indeed!” the coach scratched his head. “If it were in the past, he would have thrown a tantrum and insisted on extended training. No one could stop him. Besides, he hasn’t been able to race for a year. It would have been strange if he had a good temper!”

Lu Zhiyuan’s mood was indeed not great, but he had good emotional management skills and didn’t show it.

When he first regained his memories, he had wanted to retire.

After his identity was exposed, a continuous stream of troubles followed. It was almost impossible for him to focus solely on racing, especially in the beginning when Third Master’s emotions dominated.

But gradually, he became unwilling to retire like this..
