“I knew it would be hard for you to accept this, but could Professor Lu be an industrial spy?” Jason nodded and said after he paused for a while .

Jason could not get over the incident where Jin Xiangdong's notebook was hacked and asked again .

The notebook hacking was, no doubt, suspicious . Phone hacking after the notebook and the phantom email that Jason received had proved that the hacker was prominent .

Jin Xiangdong was unsure whether Lu Jia'er was actually an industrial spy, but, things had gotten more and more puzzling when Lu Jia'er suddenly suffered memory loss and had a boyfriend that simply no one knew where he came from .

“We shall wait and see . ” Thinking of this, Jin Xiangdong knitted his brows together .

Jason nodded silently . The current situation had gone beyond their control . The hacker was so prominent and his skill was truly eye opening . Both of them could feel as if someone was squeezing their necks .

One week later, in the BUA Technology building .

Jin Xiangdong met Lu Jia'er in the company's conference room . Lu Jia'er could remember her colleagues and everything in the office except him . Just like the day in the hospital, it was as if she had never met him before .

“Professor Lu, it's been a week we did not meet each other . I miss you . ” Li Zheng braced himself up and told Lu Jia'er .

Lu Jia'er merely chuckled . After the trip, the relations.h.i.+p between team members did improve .

“Professor Lu met with a car accident after returning from the trip,” Professor Li who was sitting opposite to her said .

Hearing this, everyone fixed their eyes at Lu Jia'er .

“Was it serious?” Li Zheng asked .

“If it was serious, I won't be sitting here now,” Lu Jia'er said with a faint smile on her face .

“Professor Lu, why didn't you tell us? We would have paid you a visit,” said Cai He .

“Yeah, you should tell us . ”

“It's just a minor car accident . I have fully recovered after resting for two days . Jason, Professor Li and Mr . Jin had visited me in the hospital . I could truly feel the care and spirit of the team . ” Lu Jia'er smiled as she looked at Jin Xiangdong who was sitting at the head of the table .

Jason took a glance at Jin Xiangdong, whose face darkened a little .

Everyone was not aware of the things that happened this week except Jason and Jin Xiangdong . However, both of them still did not have a grasp of the whole situation .

“Let's start the meeting . ”Jin Xiangdong's gaze swept past everyone as he said in a low voice .

Everyone stopped chatting and the meeting started .

Li Zheng and several staff members had presented their respective work . Jin Xiangdong looked at Lu Jia'er time and time again while listening to them whereas Lu Jia'er was listening very carefully and took notes from time to time .

The way she spoke and worked was the same as she used to and even her small gestures were extremely familiar to him . However, why would she be so cold and distant when she looked at him?

Was she acting on purpose or would it be the amnesia symptoms after the car accident?

Seeing Lu Jia'er talking happily with the rest, Jin Xiangdong knew it for the first time what was the feeling of being forgotten . The feeling was as if being neglected by the whole world .

The meeting ended after twenty minutes and everyone returned to their seats respectively .

Jason walked straight to Jin Xiangdong's room and sat down .

“It seems like she has totally forgotten about you . ” He stared at Jin Xiangdong for a long while before he said .

“I saw that she went for a full body computed tomography scan in the hospital the other day . The doctor said that she only had a mild concussion and that it would not lead to amnesia,” Jin Xiangdong said calmly .

“Is she acting?” Jason asked .

“If she were acting, she could definitely get the Oscar award,” Jin Xiangdong replied .

“What to do next?” Jason said as he stared at Jin Xiangdong . If Lu Jia'er was acting, she would have won the best actress award . However, it was always wise to play safe .

Naturally, Jin Xiangdong knew what Jason was worrying about . In fact, he was more eager to unmask this mystery than anyone else .

“Terminate her . ” Jin Xiangdong pondered for a while .

“Terminate her? How would you tell the rest?” Jason did not expect that Jin Xiangdong was so decisive .

“Staff attrition is normal,” Jin Xiangdong answered .

“Well, it's your call . ” Jason stared at him .

After Jason left the room, Jin Xiangdong stared at the doc.u.ment on the computer screen . It was the information of Lu Jia'er's boyfriend—Ian, a thirty two-year-old orphan . His chinese name was Song Hui and was adopted by an american couple when he was at the age of ten . He graduated from Harvard Business School and is now the CEO of an international energy corporation .

Jin Xiangdong had verified Ian's information . it was absolutely true and flawless . However, how he had become Lu Jia'er's boyfriend all of sudden was truly puzzling .

Knock knock!

“Come in . ” Jin Xiangdong moved the mouse pointer with his slender finger and deleted the doc.u.ment as he said coldly .

The door cracked open, it was Lu Jia'er . She approached Jin Xiangdong, one step after another . Her face and body were extremely familiar to Jin Xiangdong . However, the feeling was strangely distant .

“Mr Jin, you were looking for me?” Lu Jia'er asked graciously .

“Take a seat,” said Jin Xiangdong .

Lu Jia'er sat down, her eyes swept past Jin Xiangdong . This man had actually called her his girlfriend when they first met . He was stunningly attractive with a cold demeanor .

At this time, Jin Xiangdong was staring at her as well . His penetrating gaze was as if sizing her up which sent a chill up her spine .

'This man was so awkward!'

“Mr Jin, what's the matter?” Lu Jia'er was cold and distant to those she was not familiar with .

Lu Jia'er had always addressed him formally even during informal occasions when everyone else called him by his name—Ace when there was just both of them .

“It's about termination . ” Jin Xiangdong hesitated for a while but had finally spat out the words .

Lu Jia'er was stunned after listening to Jin Xiangdong . He called her his girlfriend when they first met and actually dismissed her the second time they met .

“Termination?” Lu Jia'er asked for confirmation .

“Yup,” Jin Xiangdong answered .

“If I am not mistaken, my contract lasts for three years . Can I know why you would terminate me all of a sudden?” Lu Jia'er was full of doubt .

“Your profession does not really suit our team's project . Rest a.s.sured, BUA will pay the compensation for terminating the contract,” said Jin Xiangdong .

“Forget about the compensation . I just feel that the dismissal is somewhat unexpected . ” although Lu Jia'er was surprised with the dismissal, her emotions were indifferent .

Hearing this, Jin Xiangdong stared into Lu Jia'er's eyes . He was the one who invited her to join the team in person . Now that he had actually dismissed her . Naturally, Lu Jia'er would refute . However, she was incredibly calm and composed .

He did not know if she was truly the Lu Jia'er that he knew before .

“Er Er,” Jin Xiangdong called out to Lu Jia'er by her nickname softly .

Slightly stunned, this was the second time Lu Jia'er met Jin Xiangdong and she had nothing about him in her memory . However, the tenderness flashed in his eyes seemed to have a deep affection for her .

“Mr . Jin, no offence, do I resemble your ex girlfriend?” Lu Jia'er stared at Jin Xiangdong as she asked .

“Er Er, how do you manage to not have any difficulty pretending that you don't know me? But I don't mind . ” Jin Xiangdong stared back at her .

“What? Mr . Jin, maybe I do look like your ex girlfriend, but this is really the second time I've met you . ” Lu Jia'er's eyes were full of doubts but her face was indifferent .

If she was truly acting, she could truly win the best actress award .

“This is the second time you met me?” Jin Xiangdong looked at Lu Jia'er with a mysterious gaze .

Lu Jia'er could hardly handle the way he stared at her . Even if Jin Xiangdong was cold and aloof, his eyes were full of tenderness . If Lu Jia'er did not have a boyfriend, she would definitely fall for him .

“Since Mr . Jin thinks that my profession is a mismatch for your project, I should leave . Please give me the termination letter . ” The situation was growing increasingly awkward . Lu Jia'er quickly changed the topic .

That was the Lu Jia'er that he was familiar with—quick and decisive . .

Jin Xiangdong was lost in wonder . If Lu JIa'er was the industrial spy, she would definitely strive to stay in the company . Now that she had actually agreed with the dismissal decisively, was she beating Jin Xiangdong at his own game?

“I will get someone to prepare the letter and send it to your office shortly,” Jin Xiangdong said calmly .

“Alright, if there is nothing else, I will leave now,” said Lu Jia'er .

Jin Xiangdong merely nodded . Lu Jia'er got up and turned to walk out the door .

Watching Lu Jia'er leaving, Jin Xiangdong's heart was full of doubts and contradictions . Lu Jia'er was a huge mystery . He could still remember all the moments he spent with Lu Jia'er and they were flas.h.i.+ng through his mind . However, he knew that Lu Jia'er was not acting . She had truly forgotten about him .

His heart was broken . The next second, Jin Xiangdong got up and left his seat .

Just as Lu Jia'er reached out to the door handle, her hand was wrapped in a big warm hand, her body was pressed against the door by Jin Xiangdong .
