It has been nearly a month since Bai Yuxian came to Zhoujiabao, but he still hasn't gotten any clues about himself or his family. Every time Zhou Yan meets him, she says there is no news yet and she has to wait for a while.
He thought to himself that he couldn't remember anything, and Zhou Yan didn't know anything about his background except his name. It was indeed not easy to find his family.
Although he was anxious, he couldn't always ask Zhou Yan. In addition, he was an outsider and it was inconvenient to live in Zhoujiapu, so he thought about leaving temporarily and finding the answer by himself.
However, on his way to find Zhou Yan, he overheard a conversation between two guards.
One of them said: "What do you think Miss wants us to do to spread the news that King Chen is dead? That King Chen is the prince of Dongchen. Whether he is alive or dead, what does it have to do with Miss?"
Another person said: "I can't figure this out. Also, Miss Bai seems to be very concerned about Mr. Bai who came not long ago.
He also specifically ordered us not to tell him about King Chen, why is that? Does Mr. Bai have anything to do with King Chen?"
"I guess Mr. Bai is probably King Chen."
"Ah? What did you say? How is this possible? Mr. Bai's surname is Bai, and Prince Chen's surname is Xiao!"
"Master Bai has lost his memory. Miss said his last name can be anything?"
"But why did the lady do this?"
"Don't you understand this? It's hard for you to guess a girl's thoughts. I think the young lady is interested in Mr. Bai, that is, Prince Chen, and wants to take advantage of his amnesia to keep him by her side.
Otherwise, why would she want us to spread rumors that King Chen is dead, while also keeping the secret from Mr. Bai?
Once I overheard the young lady telling Mr. Bai that she would send someone to find his family, but she didn't do it. Isn't it obvious?"
"It seems that your guess is not unreasonable. Forget it, let's not discuss it anymore. Let's do whatever the lady tells us."
As the sound faded away, Bai Yuxian walked out from behind the wall with a blank look on his face. Those two people said that he might be King Chen, and also said that Zhou Yan was interested in him? How is this possible?
What concerned him most was that the man said that Zhou Yan had not sent anyone to find his family, and that she had been lying to him all along!
Bai Yuxian was very surprised. He couldn't believe that Zhou Yan would actually deceive him, so he hurried to find her to ask.
Zhou Yan just came out of the room and was about to go find Bai Yuxian. Unexpectedly, he came first. But looking at his solemn expression, it seemed that something had happened.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Bai Yuxian calmed down his mind, returned to his usual gentleness, and asked calmly: "You actually know my identity, right?"
Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, smiled guiltily, and said, "I know, didn't I tell you everything before? You are a member of the world like us, and your name is Bai Yun. I don't know the rest.
Well."
"Then let me ask you again, who is King Chen? What does he have to do with me?"
He truly regarded her as a friend and trusted her unconditionally, but he didn't expect that she knew his identity and was deceiving him from the beginning.
If even his only friend lied to him, then who else could he trust?
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you." At this point, Zhou Yan also knew that the paper could not contain the anger, so she could only tell the truth frankly.
"Yes, you are King Chen. Your name is not Bai Yun. You are Bai Yuxian, the prince of Dongchen. I know it is wrong for me to lie to you like this, and I also know that you will find out sooner or later.
But I really didn’t mean it, I was just afraid that if you were found, you would leave, and then you would never see me again or pay attention to me!"
Bai Yuxian looked at her blankly, her inner feelings indescribable.
Zhou Yan raised her head, took a step forward, and said, "I have liked you since the first time I saw you, but you have always been very indifferent to me, or even turned a blind eye.
I never dared to tell you what was on my mind. I had buried this feeling in my heart for a long time. I originally thought that this would be it for the rest of my life. You and I might not be destined to be together, but I didn’t expect that God would give me a chance.
I met you in that small town when you were injured and unconscious. Originally, the doctors said you wouldn't survive. I was very sad, but I didn't expect that you miraculously survived.
You have lost your memory, you don’t remember anything, and naturally you don’t remember me either. I thought, this is a good time. I can let you get to know me again and stop ignoring me like before. I can have a chance.
catch you."
Faced with Zhou Yan's sudden confession, Bai Yuxian didn't know what to do for a moment. She was wiping her tears, so beautiful and pitiful that he didn't know what to say to avoid hurting her heart. All the resentment caused by being deceived just now was gone.
Disappeared in an instant.
"Even if I find my family or even regain my memory, you will always be my friend. How could I ignore you?"
"You can't?" Zhou Yan blinked her big eyes with tears and asked happily: "You really won't be the same as before?"
Bai Yuxian paused, then laughed and said, "Was I really indifferent before?" He felt that even if he was indifferent, he wouldn't be cold to a girl, right? He couldn't imagine what he was like before.
Zhou Yan wiped her tears and said, "You are just cold on the outside and hot on the inside. Anyway, you are very indifferent to me." She seemed to be complaining.
Bai Yuxian smiled and said: "I was like that before, but I won't be like that anymore. You are my savior, how can I turn a blind eye to you?"
Zhou Yan was like a child who got candy, suddenly bursting into tears and smiling. "Then will you marry me?"
"What?" Bai Yuxian's eyes widened. He was obviously frightened by Zhou Yan's words and couldn't even speak: "You, me, this..."
Zhou Yan chuckled, covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I'm teasing you, look at how scared you are, don't worry, I won't force you to marry me."
Bai Yuxian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, smiled awkwardly, and said, "You girl, you always like to joke, but this kind of joke is not made casually. Don't say it again in the future."
Zhou Yan felt disappointed in her heart. Although she smiled playfully on the surface, in fact, she was very concerned about Bai Yuxian's answer. She did not expect that even though Bai Yuxian did not remember Yu Siling, she still did not have herself in her heart.
"I see."
After Ye Fuxun left the inn alone, she wandered around alone. She didn't know where she had been or where she was going, she just wandered aimlessly.
He walked from dawn to dusk, and from dusk to dawn, for a day and a night, and finally collapsed.
When the sky was just getting dark, two boys came out from the back door of Zhoujiapu and were about to go out into the street. Unexpectedly, as soon as they went out, they saw a person lying down not far away. When they walked over and took a look, they turned out to be a woman.
One of the boys said: "She is still alive. It seems she just fainted from hunger. Let's carry her in and let someone give her something to eat."
