Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 123 The boss recovers his memory

"You believe what the newspaper says? Well, I'm daring to think that it's possible. I'm just saying it's possible. Maybe we recognized the wrong person."

The second sister-in-law didn't believe in such a miraculous thing, and would rather believe that she had made a mistake than believe in other possibilities. But Kang Qirui felt that what was written in the newspaper was entirely possible. Apart from other things, based on his own experience, it was very likely that he was not reborn at all. He was "amnesiac" due to lack of oxygen when he was born, and was then awakened by the nurses. And those memories of later lives were instilled into him after he "lost his memory".

It was just like the Bharata girl who was instilled with English knowledge after "losing her memory". Of course, this was only possible. Rebirth was so magical that it could happen. It was not impossible for Kang Qirui to think so. Based on his later memories, Kang Qirui knew that this was their boss and he did not recognize the wrong person.

"How could we have made a mistake? He looks exactly like our boss, and it's such a coincidence that our boss disappeared and he lost his memory, and he even ran to our tea restaurant to sleep. What a coincidence!" Kang Qirui tried to convince his second sister-in-law from the perspective of probability.

"So what if it's just a coincidence? It's more likely than your boss forgetting Cantonese, right? Even if he forgot Cantonese, how did he speak fluent Mandarin? Was it given to him by God?" Second sister-in-law still refused to believe it. She chose the more likely one of the two impossible things, and the others were also infected by Second sister-in-law's words, "Second sister-in-law is not without reason, do you remember? Last time when my father was sick, the boss was very nervous, and now you see he has no reaction at all." A Zu also began to think that he might have recognized the wrong person.

"You say this is fake, then where is the real boss?" Kang Qirui's question confused everyone. If this is not the boss's light, then where is the boss's light? "I have a way to test its authenticity." The second brother suddenly said.

"What can we do?" A Yao and A Zu asked in unison.

After Er Lao motioned for everyone to come closer to him, he whispered, "Even if two people look exactly the same, the birthmarks and moles on a certain part of his body can't be the same, right?"

"Yes, that's a good idea. Just let the eldest sister-in-law verify it." The second sister-in-law said excitedly, thinking that her husband is indeed smarter and more resourceful than others. "Let me? I dare not do that in this situation. What if it's really not the boss's light?" Xianglan was unwilling to do so. She was worried that it was really not the boss's light, wouldn't she be at a disadvantage?
"I say your worries are unnecessary." Kang Qirui rolled his eyes and said, "What's the most obvious thing about the boss? The heirloom jade on his neck. Didn't you see it when we were having dinner just now? It was worn on the boss' neck. Is it such a coincidence? They look exactly the same, and they have the same jade?"

The jade was put on Da Lao Guang by his father when he was born, and he has never taken it off for more than 40 years. His father had left a long string on him, but as Da Lao Guang grew fatter, the string tightened his flesh, so the jade on Da Lao Guang was very obvious. Everyone remembered that they had indeed seen the jade on Da Lao Guang's neck, and that's when they dispelled their doubts.

At about eleven o'clock in the evening, a loud quarrel suddenly broke out from Big Brother Guang's room. The brothers immediately got up and ran to Big Brother Guang's room, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"A Guang doesn't let me sleep here." Xianglan said in a low voice awkwardly.

"His uncle." Big Brother Guang said helplessly, "I'm not that familiar with her. What if she's not my wife? Wouldn't that be like harming her?"

Kang Qirui shook his head and sighed, "Boss, you have lost your memory, but we have already told you about our relationship. This is your father, that is your wife, and we are your brothers. Why don't you believe it? Do we seem to be harming you?"

"I know you are all good people, but there are always unexpected things. What if you recognize the wrong person?" Da Lao Guang said in a firm tone, "If you don't let me go out to sleep, I'll leave." Mazi was so angry that she almost fainted when she heard this. Kang Qirui couldn't stand it anymore. He didn't want to take extreme measures, but there was no way out now. He picked up a book on the table in Da Lao Guang's room and hit Da Lao Guang hard on the head. This scared everyone. Mazi didn't care about being angry anymore and hurried up to check on Da Lao Guang's condition.

"Mom? Dad? You look like my mom and dad, but not as old as you." When the mom and dad asked Da Lao Guang how he was doing, Da Lao Guang suddenly spoke in Cantonese. Sure enough, the things in memory are really effective. The treatment for Da Lao Guang's amnesia is to double the negative and add the positive. In his memory, when he was helping in the tea restaurant, he remembered his dad when he bumped his head. Now, he even remembered his mom when he knocked on a book.

"Boss, look at yourself in the mirror. How old are you? Do you still think your grandmother is too old?" Kang Qirui brought Boss Guang to the floor-length mirror in Boss Guang's room. When Boss Guang was busy looking at the mirror, Kang Qirui rolled the book into a round stick and unexpectedly hit Boss Guang with the stick.

"Oh, it hurts so much, A'rui, what did you do? You dare to hit the boss? Believe it or not, I will punish you with the old Dou family rules?" The boss Guang held his head and screamed. "A Guang, do you remember everyone? Do you remember me?" Xianglan was excited and scared. She was excited that the boss Guang had recovered his memory, but she was also scared that the boss Guang had forgotten her.

"Of course I remember. Wife, you said you would be with me forever. Apart from you, who else can treat me so well? How could I forget?" After Lao Guang recovered his memory, he felt very guilty when he thought about what he had done in the past two days. He was affectionate to Xianglan for once.

As the only unmarried person here, A Zu said with a smile: "Who was it that didn't let his wife sleep in the same bed with him? Hahahaha." His words made Xianglan feel embarrassed, "It's very late now, and A Guang has recovered his memory. Don't worry, everyone. Go to bed early. We can talk about it tomorrow if there is anything." Although Xianglan was a little shy, she still ordered him to leave. She had a lot of things to say to Da Lao Guang after she recovered what she had lost, and there were also a lot of things she wanted to do with Da Lao Guang now.

The next day at noon, Da Lao Guang bought a lot of food and invited the whole family to eat together. "I'm sorry for causing everyone to worry about me because of what I've done these past two days." Da Lao Guang poured wine for everyone and raised his glass and said.

The second brother said, "Are you brothers? Talk about this."

The old man said, "Guang, we are a family, why are you so polite?"

The mother said, "What do we care about? The one who suffers the most is your wife. She hasn't slept or eaten for several days and she's been worried about you." A Yao also said, "That's right, sister-in-law has suffered a lot these two days."

"I know everything, so I will treat her well for the rest of my life." This was probably the bravest day for Da Lao Guang. He never dared to speak like this before.

"Don't talk about it now. Let's talk about it tonight." Xianglan was bold for once, and her words became more reserved.
