Because the factory produces a lot of pills, Qiu Yan plans to visit Wangyoutang today.

She didn't have time to go when she got home that day.

Now that she has some free time, she will definitely go and take a look.

"Yan Yan, where are you going?"

Before she had even left, Gu Qian came looking for her.

"Bai Yang," Qiu Yan said, then mounted her horse. "Gu Qian, you stay home, I'll be right back."

“No, I’ll go with you.” Gu Qian said, then took his horse and mounted it as well.

Just then, Bailu arrived, also ready to lead the horse.

Qiu Yan shook her head at her, "Bai Lu, you shouldn't go."

Bai Lu shook her head, "Wherever Master goes, I will go."

She felt somewhat out of place in this impoverished mountain village.

Since Qiu Yan was finally going out, she insisted on going with her.

Gu Qian's expression suddenly turned cold, and his tender gaze turned fierce.

Bai Lu met Gu Qian's unfriendly gaze without the slightest fear.

Ever since Bai Lu joined her side, Qiu Yan entrusted Ling Qi with an important task: to keep an eye on Bai Lu and report back immediately if she made any move.

The reason is that Qiu Yan doesn't know whether Bai Lu has long-term or short-term amnesia, so of course she doesn't trust her.

Therefore, as soon as Bai Lu appeared, Ling Qi also appeared.

As for Ling Ba, he was currently helping Li Zheng feed the livestock under Gu Qian's instructions.

Ling Qi smiled and looked at Qiu Yan, saying, "I'll go too."

However, as soon as he spoke, he noticed that the surrounding air felt a bit cold.

He quickly retreated, moving away from Gu Qian.

Gu Qian said coldly, "Ling Qi, keep an eye on her and don't let her follow."

“Master…” Bai Lu began to retort, but Qiu Yan’s gaze silenced her.

Qiu Yan also said, "Ling Qi, Bai Lu, stay put." She usually prefers to be alone.

She was happy to have Gu Qian come along, but as for the others, she'd rather not.

"Uh... Your subordinate obeys." Ling Qi nodded and took Bai Lu's arm.

Bai Lu didn't want to agree, but since Qiu Yan had spoken, she had no choice but to obey. "Yes."

After Qiu Yan and Gu Qian left, Bai Lu forcefully shook off Ling Qi's wrist, glanced at her sideways, and said, "Don't touch me!"

Ling Qi squeezed again, "We've already touched each other..."

"Shut up!" Bai Lu was embarrassed and angry. In her anger, she threw a punch at Ling Qi's heart, but Ling Qi skillfully dodged it.

Bai Lu finished her act, her anger still evident. She wondered how she, before losing her memory, had ever fallen for Ling Qi.

She must be out of her mind to have given herself to this man.

If she weren't outmatched in a fight, she would definitely make him pay.

She turned around, preparing to go to her room to rest, but before she could react, Ling Qi grabbed one of her arms and dragged her forward.

Bai Lu gritted her teeth, "Let go of me!"

Ling Qi smiled and said, "Bai Lu, don't you want to?" Ever since he touched her once, he had never had the chance again, and he had been missing her terribly these past few days.

After he finished speaking, he dragged Bai Lu along and headed towards the distant woods.

Bai Lu was both embarrassed and angry: "What are you thinking? Let me go, Ling Qi, you bastard, where are you taking me?"

...

In the mountains, Qiu Dafu led Jiang Liu and the other two on a slow walk along the mountain path.

Of the four, only Qiu Dafu recognized wild vegetables, so he endured the dizziness and introduced them as he walked.

Once the two elders of the Jiang family had learned a thing or two, the couple began to dig up wild vegetables such as shepherd's purse and dandelion, just like ordinary farmers.

Qiu Dafu was finally able to rest.

If he doesn't get some sleep soon, he might not be able to hold on any longer.

He lagged behind a few others, casually found a thick tree trunk, sat cross-legged on the ground, leaned against the trunk, and began to close his eyes for a short rest.
