Zhu Zhuliang did not answer.

How did you meet?

She was only ten years old when she found a little beggar who was about to die. She took good care of him and finally saved him.

But the little beggar stole her money and ran away.

She searched desperately but couldn't find it.

At that time, she wanted to inherit the Gu poison, but her mother refused, so she ran away from home.

Later, I met the little beggar again at Lushan.

The little beggar was beaten half to death, but he was still tightly clutching a purse in his hand.

He said, "His mother gave it to him."

Then the little beggar said that he would repay her for saving his life in the future.

Just as she was feeling smug, that very night, the little beggar knocked her unconscious again and stole her money.

Being cheated twice by the same person was a huge blow to her as a child, and she vowed to find the little beggar and skin him alive!

Then she began looking around for little beggars.

And the little beggar's mother!

She remembered the little beggar because the purse in the little beggar's hand was embroidered with flowers she didn't recognize.

Years later, she actually found the little beggar's mother.

But before she could take revenge, the little beggar's mother died.

And then...

And then what was it again?

She doesn't seem to remember.

——

Zhu Zhuliang is gone.

Huo Chenyi and Chi Tang were not surprised when they heard the report from the guards.

"Sigh, I never thought Zhu Zhuliang would like a sickly guy like Shen Nanxun."

Chi Tang's words startled Huo Chen, who was holding the medicine bowl and about to feed him the medicine.

He suddenly remembered that Zhu Zhuliang had mentioned "that person" to Meng Kuo before!

Judging from Zhu Zhuliang's tone, he definitely didn't seem like a sickly person!

Isn't it Shen Nanxun?

That's impossible.

Judging from Zhu Zhuliang and Shen Nanxun's reactions, it's clear that they were right.

Can……

"What's wrong?" Chi Tang asked curiously.

After hearing Huo Chenyi's words, Chi Tang adorably rested her chin on her hand, thought for a moment, and then said:

"Perhaps it's an act? Pretending to be healthy and not weak?"

"Disguise? That makes sense. If he disguises himself like this, it will be hard for people to guess that he is Shen Nanxun."

After all, everyone knows that Shen Nanxun has been sickly since childhood, and many doctors have said that he would not live to adulthood.

It's quite surprising that he's almost twenty years old now.

"Young Master!"

"Come in."

A man with inconspicuous features entered and reported, "Shen Nanxun has several new wounds on his hands, which look like they were cut by a broken teacup. They are very fresh and still bleeding."

"A teacup? Is there a teacup in the house?"

No.

Huo Chenyi: "Keep an eye on him and apply the medicine."

Then they started feeding Chi Tang her medicine.

Chi Tang resisted with all her might: "Brother Chenyi, please don't drink the medicine, okay? It's so bitter!"

"no."

Huo Chenyi looked like there was no room for negotiation.

In fact, Chi Tang doesn't have any major problems, but her soul is somewhat unstable.

Doctor Li then prescribed a medicine to strengthen the body's foundation and nourish its vital energy.

This medicine is very effective, but it's bitter.

Because one of the medicinal herbs is essential, but it happens to be particularly bitter.

You could use other herbs to neutralize the taste, but the medicinal effect would be reduced.

We'll drink for a few more days then.

So Chi Tang chose to drink less for a few days.

It was just too bitter.

Chi Tang felt nauseous just from the smell.

"Tangtang, be good. You drink one bowl, and I'll drink two, okay?"

"How can you take medicine haphazardly?"

Chi Tang blinked.

Huo Chenyi said, "Then I'll drink two bowls of Coptis chinensis."

Chi Tang: ...

"No, I'll take my medicine obediently."

Chi Tang took the medicine bowl, made full preparations, steeled her resolve, closed her eyes, and downed it in one gulp.

"Gulp, gulp!"

After taking many big gulps, the medicine was finally finished.

"vomit!"

But the moment she put down the medicine bowl, Chi Tang almost couldn't help but vomit.

Huo Chenyi immediately handed her a bowl of honey water.

Chi Tang waved her hand.

I went out to rinse my mouth first, and then came back to drink the bowl of honey water.

"I saw that the Heart-to-Heart Mantra has been broken, and both Mom and Dad are very happy. Just now... wait? Brother Chenyi, can the Heart-to-Heart Mantra be applied twice?"

"What's the meaning?"

"It's because Shen Nanxun and her sister-in-law were bound by a love spell, so Shen Nanxun's suffering is shared with her sister-in-law. But what if someone else was also bound by a love spell with Shen Nanxun?"

That's why you get injuries on your hands!

After all, there were no bowls in the house, so how did Shen Nanxun get injured?

“You’re right, that’s possible.” Huo Chen nodded.

It's a pity Zhu Zhuliang is gone, otherwise asking Zhu Zhuliang would have made it even more certain.

Chi Tang nodded vigorously, then stuck out her little tongue and cutely licked the honey water from the corner of her lips.

He muttered to himself, "I wonder who could be so vicious."

They've caused so much trouble.

Huo Chenyi was charmed by Chi Tang's cuteness and couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheek, laughing as he said, "You bad guy."

"Hmph, Brother Chenyi, are you leaving?"

Chi Tang has a flat mouth.

Since they came with a mission, and there's a Yanzi Gui locked up in the side room, they'll definitely be leaving soon.

"Tangtang is so smart."

Huo Chenyi rubbed the little girl's head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll come whenever I have time."

As for sending Chi Tang to the capital, Huo Chenyi had never mentioned it.

Because he also knew that sending Chi Tang to the capital was somewhat dangerous.
