Chapter 455

Xixi, in the clouds and mist: "You suspect I'm someone else in disguise!?"

"Where have you been these past few days?" Gu Rongjin asked.

"I..."

Upon Gu Rongjin's question, Xixi realized she couldn't remember anything; her mind was completely blank.

"What have I been doing these past few days? Why do I have no memory at all?"

"Why did you appear here?" Gu Rongjin asked again.

"Here...?" Xixi looked around blankly, "Right, why am I here?"

It's over, I completely can't remember!

"Don't you know you've been missing for several days? Your father came to the Grand General's Manor to tell us, we've been searching everywhere, and only today did we find a clue—you might be imprisoned in the Myriad Fragrance Building next door." Gu Rongjin said, trying to jog Xixi's memory.

However, Xixi still looked bewildered, now also shocked, "I've been missing!?"

She glanced down at herself, a bit confused.

"I really have no impression at all..."

Just thinking about it makes my head hurt.

"Do you still remember that a few nights ago you were attacked by thugs, and then Mumucheng saved you? Of course, that's all his trickery." Gu Rongjin asked again.

"I remember! Of course I remember!" Finally having something to recall, Xixi was delighted.

"And then? Did you discover any secret of his, like about his blood?" Gu Rongjin pressed on.

Xixi tried hard to recall, then shook her head, "No, no impression..."

"As expected, even the crucial memory has been wiped away." Gu Rongjin said, not without regret.

"You mean my memory was erased? Is that even possible?" Xixi widened her eyes.

However, this could explain why she can't remember anything.

I feel like I've spent the past few days in a daze.

"Intermittent amnesia is possible, but you've definitely had part of your memory deliberately sucked out—that requires formidable skill." Gu Rongjin said.

Mumucheng and his gang didn't kill Xixi, probably because they didn't want to cause a big stir in Jingcheng.

After all, it's better to have less trouble than more.

But leaving Xixi alone, aren't you afraid she'll remember? So confident in your abilities?

"Ah?" Just thinking that part of her memory had been sucked out made Xixi feel terrible.

Too terrifying!

Just thinking about it gives her chills; if that person took a bit more, would she not even know who she is? Unconsciously, she's become a different person...

Gu Rongjin comforted her: "Don't think too much; as long as you're unharmed, that's fine. Let's head back to the Grand General's Manor and have Little Zhiyan take a look at you."

"Mm!" Xixi nodded.

Elder Sister Mu is so capable; maybe she has a solution!

"Right, Young Master Jin, isn't the Myriad Fragrance Building a brothel? Why are you going to such a place?" Xixi asked.

"I just came to find you, and I came with Yunjinglou; my wife knows about it." Gu Rongjin hastily explained.

So that this girl won't go blabbing.

"Don't worry, I know that already—I'm just asking, where is Sir Yun?"

"Who knows? It's been so long with no news—maybe he's forgotten his homeland."

He keeps himself pure and self-disciplined, but he can't vouch for Yun Jinglou.

"You're not... Young Master, this humble official, for your sake, disregarded propriety and went to those places of ill repute, and yet you slander me like this?" Yun Jinglou's voice rang out from above behind.

They looked up and saw Yun Jinglou standing above with his arms crossed, appearing to have retreated completely unharmed.

"Guess who I just saw?"

Yun Jinglou jumped down.

"Who? Fanghua?" Gu Rongjin asked.

"Clever, that woman is very leisurely."

"It's a pity I'm not free right now, otherwise she wouldn't escape tonight." Gu Rongjin said with a cold smile.

"No rush, can the big fish still get away?" Yun Jinglou said, glancing at Xixi: "Did you rescue the person?"

"No, she came out on her own, missing part of her memory—something done by those from Mucheng, which is why they dared to release her. I also found the room where Xixi was imprisoned; they probably didn't expect us to find them so quickly."

Yun Jinglou: "That's good, otherwise our opponent would be too terrifying."

"What have you been doing in there for so long?" Gu Rongjin asked.

"Just beating around the bush, that Miss Fanghua has excellent psychological resilience—I think she's not simple." Yun Jinglou said, "We've been sparring in Taiji for ages, but we couldn't get anything out of her."

"It's not strange that you don't eat brains—you don't rely on brute force to suppress, do you?"

"Who just said our IQs were the same? Isn't that indirectly disparaging yourself?"

"You misunderstood—I meant relying on our two IQs, but I didn't say our IQs are on the same level." Gu Rongjin laughed, looking like he deserved a punch.

"Alright, Young Master's IQ outclasses ours—if there's anything, don't bother this humble official."

"Just joking, Chief Commander, don't be angry—trouble you to send Miss Xixi back to the Grand General's residence; I still have some business." Gu Rongjin said.

"... You really think I'm your subordinate?"

"Didn't I say it's a trouble?"

Xixi looked at them both and said, "I can go myself, no trouble for Sir Yun."

"No trouble, it's just a trivial matter." Yun Jinglou amended.

Gu Rongjin snorted, "Just knew you'd be fawning over the lady."

"Otherwise? Do big men fawn over other big men?"

Cloud Mirror Tower sent Xixi to the Grand General's mansion; Mu Yuanzhi came out to receive the person, then he left, and in passing briefly briefed Mu Yuanzhi about tonight's affairs.

"Xixi, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Mu Yuanzhi asked while leading the way.

Xixi: "Apart from getting a headache when I try to recall what I don't remember, there's nothing else."

"This is normal; don't try too hard, even if you try hard you won't remember; I'll give you acupuncture to see the effect, but I expect it won't be very effective." Mu Yuanzhi said.

Xixi nodded, she sighed anxiously: "What secret have I actually learned? It must be very important!"

"Don't put pressure on yourself; what we ought to know will eventually be known." Mu Yuanzhi comforted her, "Tomorrow I'll take you to see Sima to see if he has any method."

When the shaman doctor was mentioned, Xixi became very interested: "I've always wanted to talk with him, but I always feel he's a bit scary!"

"It's a bit scary, but it's alright; he has already turned from evil to good, in thought." Behavior-wise still not commendable, matching his weird and eerie demeanor.

Mu Yuanzhi pulled Xixi to sit down, gave her acupuncture, Xixi felt much more refreshed, "Even if I try hard to recall now, I don't get a headache!"

"Really? That's good!" Mu Yuanzhi smiled relievedly, "Then have you thought of anything?"

"Let me think slowly…" Xixi, who had been pressing her temples, unconsciously lowered her hands, her eyes rolling upward as she tried hard to recall what had happened these days.

Mu Yuanzhi watched anxiously.
