Chapter 7, Chapter 131: If 1: Starting from this home...

Yin Zhihua responded with a muffled laugh.

He obediently let go of her hand. But after releasing her, he lay lazily on the bed. Jin Chuwan watched as he casually lifted his shirt and deliberately winked at her, feigning weakness.

This guy...

Jin Chuwan stared for a while, then blushed and turned her head away.

She admitted that he was very handsome, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, fair and delicate skin, and long, thick eyelashes, as if he had really stepped out of a novel.

However, she wouldn't be easily seduced by beauty.

"You'd better be serious..." Jin Chuwan said, but without much confidence. "Don't think that you can avoid doing housework. You promised to do the laundry and cook, and what about dinner tonight? I've been busy until now and you're still lying here?"

Jin Chuwan crossed her arms. Although she was saying some harsh words, her voice sounded awkward, and her eyes darted around, unsure of where to look.

Yin Zhihua rested his chin on his hand and watched with a smile. He suddenly remembered the first time they met, when she seemed to be blushing but pretending to be calm.

He found it very interesting at that time.

He got out of bed and slowly straightened his clothes, but as he passed Jin Chuwan, he sighed softly, "Sigh... some people are just so dense. I really have no hope for this life..."

Jin Chuwan was annoyed by his pretentious behavior and gave him a speechless glance.

What utter nonsense is this?

Jin Chuwan rented a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment that had been converted into a four-room shared apartment. Outside were a hallway and a kitchen, but now only two rooms were rented out, and the other person left earlier and returned later than her, so basically no one could disturb anyone else.

She opened the door and glanced at Yin Zhihua, who was busy in the kitchen. After confirming that he was working, she went back inside to change her clothes.

She has been in S City for several years now. In the past, she would return to her rented room every day feeling exhausted. It seemed that no matter how long she stayed in this city, she was still just an outsider.

But now that there's someone else around, life seems a bit easier.

But this sense of ease is indeed only a little bit.

The very next day, her rented room was knocked on by a guest who suddenly came to visit.

At that moment, she was untying the rope for Yin Zhihua.

Jin Chuwan had originally planned not to tie him up anymore, but given his behavior last night, she felt that some measures were still necessary.

Yin Zhihua did not resist, but simply lay on his side, yawning from time to time.

When they untied him, his wrists were marked with deep red welts. Jin Chuwan felt a little guilty, but Yin Zhihua didn't seem to care at all. In fact, he quite enjoyed this little play, because Jin Chuwan would always feel embarrassed when she tied him up, and would look at him with heartache when she untied him.

This made Yin Zhihua secretly very pleased.

He was secretly pleased with himself, yet couldn't help but sigh.

It feels so good that no one is competing with him for it.

Jin Chuwan used to rarely even glance at him, but now she actually asks him if he's in pain.

The knocking outside grew louder, and Jin Chuwan was a little confused. At first, she thought it was her roommate who had forgotten to bring his keys, but when she opened the door, she was stunned to see two rows of tall men in black suits.

Standing at the front was a refined-looking man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. As soon as he saw Jin Chuwan, he smiled and immediately showed her a photo on his phone.

"Excuse me, miss, do you know this person?"

The photo shows a boy sleeping soundly while hugging a doll. It looks like it was taken a few years ago, but it's obvious that the person in the photo is Yin Zhihua.

Jin Chuwan paused for a moment, then glanced behind the man: "...Who are you?"

Sensing Jin Chuwan's wariness, the man offered a polite smile and pulled out a business card from his pocket. "I apologize for my intrusion."

Jin Chuwan took the business card and glanced at it. It clearly stated that she was the assistant to the president of a certain company. She had even heard of this company before; it was a well-known name in S City and had many subsidiaries.

but.

Why would someone like this suddenly come to Yin Zhihua with photos? Could it be that some melodramatic story of a rich young master with amnesia being picked up by a Cinderella has fallen into her lap?

Kim Chu-wan's first reaction was that he should be able to get a lot of compensation.

"Um, I'd like to know what your relationship is with the person in the photo..."

The refined man chuckled and put his phone away: "It's like this, he's a distant cousin of mine. My cousin was born with an intellectual disability and was originally being cared for in our hometown. We brought him over for a visit because it was almost Chinese New Year, but he suddenly went missing a while ago. I accidentally saw his photo online, and then asked someone to investigate, which is how we found him."

Jin Chuwan suddenly realized that it was an intellectual disability.

But... when Yin Zhihua doesn't say he's the male protagonist of the novel, he doesn't seem stupid, does he?

Jin Chuwan glanced once more at the several burly men in black behind the man, and she had a feeling that things weren't so simple.

At this moment, Yin Zhihua came out of the house after getting dressed. He froze the instant he saw the refined man.

Isn't this my mom's agent?

He opened his mouth, glanced at Jin Chuwan, then at the refined man, seemingly finding it difficult to speak, yet also harboring a hint of anticipation: "Aaron? You time-traveled too? What about my mother?"

The man called Aaron pushed up his glasses, and Kim Cho-wan could see a hint of helplessness and weariness in his eyes.

"What time travel? Did you forget to take your meds again?"

Aaron grabbed Yin Zhihua by the ear and dragged her to the door.

"You're hopeless, you've gone to work as a model for your rival company? And you've even learned to run away from home? You're something else... Don't think I can't deal with you just because you're not smart enough?"

Jin Chuwan was given a piece of fresh gossip while standing at her own door. She was initially worried that the other party had ill intentions, but seeing that they seemed to really know each other, she felt relieved.

However, seeing that Aaron wouldn't let Yin Zhihua off the hook, she still kindly said a few kind words.

"Well... he probably didn't do it on purpose. When I found him, he had been wandering the streets for several days. He seemed to remember nothing, and couldn't even say his name clearly. He said his name was Yin Zhihua, but that's clearly not his surname."

When the refined man heard Jin Chuwan's explanation, his expression softened slightly. He looked at the girl in front of him and then glanced at his younger brother.

"Thank you for taking care of him these past few days, Miss."

After the man finished speaking, he bowed, and the several burly men behind him also bowed in unison.

Jin Chuwan was a little shocked. She gripped the doorknob tightly in nervousness. She didn't know if she was overthinking it, but she had the illusion that she was being hung in a mourning hall.

At this moment, Yin Zhihua seemed to finally realize that something was wrong. He suddenly broke free from Aaron and hid behind Jin Chuwan.

"What are you going to do that I won't go with you? I want to be with her!"

Yin Zhihua was about to close the door after he finished speaking, but Jin Chuwan stopped him.

"Stop fooling around, Yin Zhihua. Your family has come looking for you. You should go home now."

Seeing that Yin Zhihua was still unwilling, Jin Chuwan said helplessly, "Didn't you just ask where your mother is? You can only see her when you go home."

This point did somewhat convince Yin Zhihua. Although he was quite certain that his memories were correct, Aaron's appearance confused him again. Perhaps he should try to understand what was going on with himself in this world.

Yin Zhihua hesitated slightly, but he did not intend to obediently follow the others.

He glanced at Jin Chuwan hesitantly, then took her hand again.

"I'll listen to you, but you have to come with me."

This is just a rented room, not a real home. Besides, Jin Chuwan is unemployed now. What if she suddenly decides to leave the city after he leaves? He won't know where to look for her then.

In short, he had to stick to her tightly.

Aaron glanced at his silly younger brother, seemingly not too surprised.

They are half-brothers, sharing the same mother but different fathers. Although their mother was unmarried, she was never without support. The two brothers are ten years apart in age. Because their mother was very busy with work, she essentially raised the younger brother. Originally, Zhihua was normal as a child, but after a high fever, things started to change. He would either stop talking or talk nonsense, making it impossible for him to attend school; he was essentially a stay-at-home dad. The only good thing was that he still had basic self-care abilities; he could be cleaned up and taken out.

His mother originally intended to introduce him to a girl who wouldn't mind his age now that he was older.

Who knew that the person would disappear as soon as they were delivered to S City.

Thinking this, Aaron's gaze toward Kim Cho-wan suddenly took on a different meaning.

This idiot of his has never been so clingy before. It seems he still has some brains. He's grown up and knows to find himself a wife. He takes advantage of his stupidity, wealth, and good looks to cling to kind-hearted young girls.

That's not bad.

Jin Chuwan felt the refined man's gaze softening, and felt inexplicably uneasy. She nudged Yin Zhihua beside her.

"That's your house, not mine. You should go back home..."

If it weren't for the large group of people the man at the door had brought, Jin Chuwan wouldn't have had the patience to pretend to be gentle and coax Yin Zhihua. But after a while, her patience was running out.

"Listen to me, go back quickly."

Yin Zhihua thought that after spending so many days together, Jin Chuwan should care about him at least a little, especially since he had tried so hard to seduce her. But Jin Chuwan didn't seem to care about his coming or going at all.

This made him feel a little bittersweet.

"Do you really want to get rid of me that badly? I knew it. You've always looked down on me. You think I'm a burden to you, don't you?"

The original family reunion plot suddenly turned into an emotional drama. The gossip that Jin Chuwan hadn't finished eating was handed over to Aaron, who looked at Jin Chuwan with great interest.

He was already used to the idiot's tantrums.

This is nothing. He will always remember that when this idiot first saw him after his brain went mad, he actually called him "Daddy".

To Aaron's surprise, the young lady seemed quite at ease. She didn't seem to grasp her brother's implied meaning at all, and she was like a child being coaxed, saying no, no, you're overthinking it, and that he should go home first and she would visit him when she had time.

Despite the obvious perfunctory attitude, his younger brother was surprisingly appeased.

He stopped insisting and simply asked for his home address and contact information before handing it over.

"Three days, I'll definitely be back within three days. You stay home and wait for me. I'll call you. And if I don't come back, remember to come pick me up."

Yin Zhihua was genuinely worried about losing Jin Chuwan if he wasn't careful, but his behavior only made others believe that the young master of the family was indeed a fool.

No normal person dates like they're sending a child to kindergarten.
