"My worry is that he hasn't woken up even once since his accident . I want you to find the best neurosurgeon in Shanghai and send him here," Mr . Xie barked instructions into his phone .

"What was Tang doing here in Moganshan, Chu? And why was I not informed about it?" Mei Zhen confronted her sister in-law outside the room where Tang was .

"That is a question you need to ask big brother . I don't report into you . I do not know why he didn't tell you but we were here for work . We arrived yesterday afternoon and left once the work was over," she said unemotionally .

"Was Wei also here yesterday?" Mei Zhen continued with her questions .

"No, he wasn't . He has also just arrived, as you did . Now, can you stop grilling my fiancée? She was hurt in the accident as well, yesterday," Ethan came up to them and told Mei Zhen off in a no nonsense tone .

Right then, they heard Mrs . Xie shout from inside, "he is awake . Call the doctor . "

Everyone rushed inside immediately .

"Mom, you look different," Tang said drowsily .

The doctor came in that moment and asked everyone to vacate the room .

"You and I need to talk," Mr . Xie told his daughter quietly while waiting for the doctor to finish his assessment .

Normally a rebel, Chu looked at her father's grave expression and nodded mutely . They moved away from everyone else's earshot . She then went on to explain the chain of events which had taken place in the past few days .

"You mean to say that Lin Jia Li has been involved in this Language project from its inception?" he asked .

At her nod, he continued, "and Tang came to know about this only a few days ago?"

She said, "yes, he and Mei Zhen apparently ran into Jia Li and their friends at Hainan Island . Wei was also there . That was when he came know everything . "

"And where is Jia Li's husband in all this? Why is she staying and working here instead of Beijing?" he asked her .

"Uh, they have been divorced since a year now, even before big brother got married," she replied, waiting to see his reaction .

Mr . Xie didn't say anything post that but his mind was busy sifting through information and drawing conclusions . The out of character behaviour of Tang suddenly made sense to him . He had never sought his father's help during the past five years nor had he interfered or cared about what Wei had been involved in ever before . All of this was because of that girl . She always had possessed the power to turn his son into another person and it seemed that Tang was still under her spell, after all this time . This was not good news .

Right then the doctor emerged from the room, post examining Tang .

"How is he, doctor?" Mr . Xie asked while everyone surrounded them, anxious to know the prognosis .

"His injuries are healing well and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with his faculties . The only concern is that he seems confused about the present circumstances," the doctor said cryptically .

"What does that mean?" asked an impatient Mei Zhen .

"It means that he seems to think that we are in year 2013 and not 2019 . His first question to me was whether we were in New York or China . Has he had a similar accident before in his life?" the doctor directed the question to Mr . Xie .

Mr . Xie was too dumbfounded to say anything .

It was Chu who responded, "yes . Big brother was involved in a car crash six years ago . It happened in New York and was around the year end, if I am not mistaken . "

"Hmm…that's why he asked me if it was Jan 1st already . He seemed to be upset about the fact that he had missed calling someone to wish a happy new year," the doctor said contemplatively .

"Are you trying to say that my son has forgotten about everything since then?" asked a perplexed Mrs . Xie .

The doctor said, "it seems that he is suffering from short term amnesia . I think he would regain his memories sooner than later . But it would be better if you sought the opinion of a neurosurgeon . "

"When can we take him home? Is he fit to travel?" asked Mei Zhen .

"He can be discharged post the next twenty four hours . We want to keep him here under observation for another day to check for signs of concussion . He can travel after that," he explained .

"Also, you are free to meet him but make sure that you do not contradict or confuse him on anything that he says . The neurosurgeon would have a clearer perspective on his condition but my advice as of now is to concur with whatever the patient's narrative is . Don't push him into trying to remember something which he doesn't . Also, please accommodate his wishes for now . It is imperative to keep a warm and secure environment around him," he advised and walked away .
