Collective mind reading, villain boss, let me go

"I'm sorry, Zhizhi, it's brother's fault..." His voice was choked and nasal, and he almost couldn't breathe: "I don't want to chase you away. In fact, we don't want to chase you away at all. You are not redundant. I have protected you since you were a child, and you were raised as a pampered child by the Nan family.

But...but at that time, we kicked you out, the Nan family went bankrupt, and Dad was in jail... Mom couldn't bear the blow and her health was so bad...

I... a few of us... hehe..."

He smiled bitterly and shook his head, talking about everything in his previous life in a self-deprecating manner.

"The eldest brother's leg was broken, I was disfigured, and my voice could no longer sing. The third brother's hand was broken, and the medical science he was proud of became the thing he feared the most. The fourth brother... became deaf. How could he, who was so proud, accept this?

I really don't understand why you came back!! You have already been driven away by us, but you still want to come back to take care of us, a bunch of burdens.

But... we are affected by the plot, we have no control over our actions, and by the time we realize everything, we have become a burden."

Nan Qian wiped his tears, grabbed Nan Zhi's hand and rubbed it continuously, looking at her hands, there was not even a single callus on them.

"We all feel bad for driving you out without control. If you selfishly live your own life, maybe we will be happier...

But… you worked three jobs a day to pay for my third child’s medical treatment and buy medicine for me, and your hands were covered with blisters from washing dishes, and you were insulted by those people.”

Nan Zhi shook her head. She lowered her head weakly and leaned on Nan Qian’an’s shoulder: “But… I can’t bear to leave you…”

Nan Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "We are affected by the plot, we have our own thoughts but do things against our will. We all know how desperate we are... We thought we had recovered, but that must be because we were out of touch with the plot.

Then you...shouldn't be affected anymore.

But I didn’t expect…”

[I didn’t expect that after I left, death would come as expected… Perhaps it’s time for me to die after completing my storyline and my role as a female supporting role…]

Nan Qian'an suddenly realized something, and wanted to grab her shoulders but he didn't dare to do it.

"You... blocked the sulfuric acid for me?"

Nan Zhi nodded, feeling a little happy at the moment: "I protected my brother..."

Nan Qian'an's trembling fingertips fell on her arm. Even through the thin clothes, he could still feel the thick gauze underneath.

"You...protected me again...idiot."

Nan Zhi shook her head and smiled from the bottom of her heart. She was very happy. She had protected him. This time, he would not be devastated by this incident.

"You are the fool."

Nan Qian nodded and sniffed, raising his hand to wipe her tears: "Yes, I am an idiot."

"Zizi, in fact, in this life, I and everyone else have also been affected."

"What?" Nan Zhi looked at him in confusion, and suddenly felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

Nan Qian rubbed her face and wiped away her tears: "Don't worry, this time seems to be a little different. Every time we are affected by Nan Wanyi, as long as you appear or you are around, we will be much more sober.

After you fell from the building, I seemed to be out of the plot...

[Out of the plot…? ]

Nan Zhi: "Do you think that all this has something to do with me!?"

Nan Qian nodded with a heavy heart: "I know what you are worried about. The plot is messed up now. You blocked the sulfuric acid for me, but I was not disfigured. You were not kicked out of the Nan family, but Nan Wanyi was.

We thought it was no longer affected by the plot, but the plot is still there, and even more difficult to control.”

Nan Zhi looked at Nan Qian'an strangely, and sized him up and down: "Brother... So you fainted in the car because you recovered your memory?"

"Well, I felt a headache at that time, and many images suddenly appeared in my mind."

[My second brother has recovered his memory, and Nan Wanyi has also recovered. Is there anything else...?]

Nan Qian: "Do you think my brother and the others will also remember things from their past lives?"

Nan Zhi looked at him in surprise, forgetting her sadness and heaviness for a moment.

"how do you know?"

Nan Qian'an turned his face away in embarrassment, and after hesitating for a moment, he decided not to tell her.

"We are brothers and sisters, and you forgot that I am the one who understands you the best since childhood."

Nan Zhi shook her head speechlessly: "No... You are the one who has been at odds with me since childhood."

"Bullshit! The one who is not on good terms with you is obviously the third brother!" Nan Qian'an retorted to her anxiously and quickly changed the subject.

"Zizi, if big brother and the others can really recover their memories, it will be a good thing for us. The stupid things you did in your previous life were more or less affected by the plot, right?"

Nan Zhi nodded awkwardly.

Nan Qian: "But you were not affected this time, so restoring your memory may be a way for us to escape from the plot, or at least restore our own thoughts and control."

Nan Zhi leaned down in his arms, feeling a little tired.

Nan Qi'an suddenly tensed up and dared not move...

Their relationship was very tense in their previous life, and to say that he had recovered his memory was more like a rebirth, because the scenes that had happened seemed to have happened not long ago.

Now the sudden closeness made him feel a little unreal.

Nan Zhi: "Brother... it's great that you can remember everything..."

Nan Qian looked at the person in his arms and felt a little distressed.

“You… must be very tired after being alone for so long. Zhizhi did a great job, she’s a world-class dancer, very impressive.

I also protected my parents well, and also... protected me.

Brother is late, I will be here from now on... okay?"

Nan Zhi nodded. After coming back for so long, she had never felt so relaxed as she did now.

Before, I had been on edge, on guard against everyone, to protect myself, to work hard, to guard against Nan Wanyi, to guard against the plot, to guard against Cui Shaoheng and Fu Siqing being affected by the plot and hurting me, and to guard against Huo Ling being killed by me...

[I have a backer…]

The two of them sat quietly. Nan Qian didn't dare to touch her back. He could only pat her hand gently. He didn't put her down until she fell asleep.

The door of the ward was pushed open, and the three people outside never left.

Nan Zheqian watched him come out, closed his notebook tiredly and rubbed his brows: "How is Zhizhi?"

"Fell asleep."

Nan Qian'an's eyes fell on Ye Jin. He knew her. She was a big fan of his: "You...are my fan?"

Ye Jin quickly stood up and nodded.

Nan Chengfeng: "You have to thank her. She was the one who systematically talked to the people around you and called an ambulance for you. Zhizhi was so scared that he couldn't even hold the phone. Zhizhi was splashed with sulfuric acid, but she handled it in a timely manner."
