Jiang Yu didn't wake up until evening, and she seemed a little dazed after waking up.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Xia Zhi's voice sounded like she was about to cry; no matter what, she was genuinely afraid that something would happen to Jiang Yu.

"I'm fine, Xia Zhi, I'm a little hungry."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi nodded quickly, "This servant will go and cook some rice porridge for Miss right away."

Being able to eat is a good thing. The doctor specifically instructed me before leaving that dietary supplements are much more effective than medicinal supplements.

Jiang Yu lay quietly, slowly sorting through the memories in her mind, and then connecting them with the current situation.

A familiar, sharp glint flashed across Jiang Yu's eyes; the Yun family had actually kept her locked up here for four whole years.

She claims to be a cousin of the Yun family, but in reality, no one knows what she's up to by using her.

Since Ayan will have to deal with these powerful families eventually anyway, he might as well start with the Yun family.

From that day on, Xia Zhi always felt that Miss Biao had changed, but if asked to explain exactly what had changed, Xia Zhi couldn't say.

Three days later, Jiang Yu saw Gu Lin again.

"I thought I wouldn't need to come today after hearing that Miss Biao had fainted."

Gu Lin nervously looked Jiang Yu up and down, and seeing her obviously pale face, Gu Lin's heart jumped.

"It's an old problem."

Jiang Yu spoke softly, "Master, let's begin practicing martial arts."

As soon as they started practicing martial arts, Jiang Yu unleashed the moves that the two of them used to practice together. Gu Lin was stunned for a moment, but then quickly reacted.

Suddenly, Jiang Yu's foot twisted, and she was about to fall to the ground.

Gu Lin quickly caught Jiang Yu's waist, then released her just as fast, saying, "Be careful."

"Miss Cousin."

Xia Zhi quickly ran over and helped Jiang Yu up.

"Miss Biao is still recovering and is feeling a bit weak."

As soon as Gu Lin finished speaking, a cry of pain rang out, and Jiang Yu's eyes were a little red. "I think I twisted my ankle."

"Miss, I'll go and call the doctor right away."

"stop."

Jiang Yu's words made Xia Zhi stop in her tracks. "I wonder if the master can treat my ankle. It's like this, if the head of the family finds out that I twisted my ankle, not only will I, the maid, be punished, but I'm afraid I won't be able to practice martial arts in the future."

Upon hearing Jiang Yu's words, a look of gratitude appeared in Xia Zhi's eyes.

"If Miss trusts me, I can give it a try."

When Gu Lin's cold hand touched Jiang Yu's fair feet, his eyes darkened and his breathing became unsteady.

"Xia Zhi, go and help guard the yard, in case anyone comes unexpectedly."

After sending Xia Zhi away, a smile finally appeared in Jiang Yu's eyes.

Seeing Jiang Yu's swollen and red ankle, Gu Lin took out some medicine, sprinkled it on her ankle, and then gently massaged it.

"Knowing full well that he was weak, he still insisted on practicing that set of boxing techniques, twisting his ankle and causing himself pain."

Jiang Yu wiggled her other, uninjured foot, saying, "Otherwise, why would I trouble the Emperor Emeritus to personally apply medicine to me?"

Jiang Yu emphasized the words "Emperor Emeritus" heavily, her tone full of teasing.

"You think I'm too old, huh?"

Gu Lin carefully put down Jiang Yu's injured foot, then leaned closer, "The Empress Dowager dislikes me so much, what should I do?"

Feeling Gu Lin's breath, Jiang Yu's ears turned red. "You're not even excited when I remember things from the past?"

"I'm so excited, I'm extremely happy."

Gu Lin pulled Jiang Yu into his arms. "Ayu, when I saw you practicing that set of boxing just now, I really wanted to hold you in my arms right away. It's so good that you're safe and sound."

Jiang Yu also reached out and wrapped her arms around Gu Lin, her fingers gently tracing through his hair. Suddenly, as if she had seen something, Jiang Yu's eyes widened in disbelief.

Her hands were stained with black marks.

Seeing the sliver of white hidden in her hair, Jiang Yu's eyes reddened. "Gu Lin, I'm so glad to see you again."

How did his hair turn white?

He's so young, only four years have passed...

"Ayu, we..."

Before Gu Lin could finish speaking, Jiang Yu moved closer to him, cutting him off from what he was about to say.

Gu Lin's pupils dilated, and then he immediately took the initiative.

In the midst of their reluctant parting, Jiang Yu, exhausted, leaned on Gu Lin's shoulder and said, "I want... I want to get rid of the Yun family for Ayan. Let's stay in Luoming for a while longer."

The truth about how she was brought to the Yun family four years ago has not yet been found, and the Yun family has not yet repaid what they owe her.

"Then write a letter to Ayan, so that Ayan can rest assured."

Gu Lin naturally responded to Jiang Yu's words, and Jiang Yu, thinking of Gu Qingyan's appearance, instantly smiled.

"It's time to write a letter to Ayan."

......

"Miss seems to be in a very good mood." Xia Zhi smiled and fanned Jiang Yu. Sitting by the lake, Jiang Yu's eyes were full of smiles.

"Yes, the moon is beautiful tonight, and it makes one feel happy."

Jiang Yu reached out and touched the lake water. It felt so nice.

When she saw Gu Lin again after four years, she realized that she had long remembered Gu Lin's scent and voice. Even if she lost her memory, she would not resist Gu Lin's approach.

Is this what liking someone is?

Jiang Yu smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Father, Mother, it turns out I really do like him."

Fortunately, it was he who walked into Zhaoning Palace on their wedding night.

She was carrying their child, the best Ayan in the world.

Heaven has been kind to her.

"Xia Zhi, tell me about the Yun family, starting from when the patriarch took over the Yun family."

Under the cover of night, Xia Zhi slowly told Jiang Yu everything she knew. Jiang Yu quickly made up her mind and then focused her attention on Yun Mo.

Despite being the young master, he lacked the real power of one and was actually less powerful than a son of a concubine.

And the fact that Madam Yun died in childbirth back then is really strange.

She wants to turn the Yun family upside down first.

The identity of Miss Yun is just right.

Gu Lin and Jiang Yu were truly of one mind; one thought of Yun Mo, while the other went directly to Yun Mo's courtyard at night.

"who?"

Yunmo, who was fiddling with the mechanism, paused, his gaze sweeping over his surroundings.

"It's me."

Gu Lin slowly emerged from the shadows. "Young Master, please keep your voice down so as not to disturb the guards outside."

"Who...who exactly are you?"

"I'm here to help the young master," Gu Lin said, wearing a mask. "Doesn't the young master feel it's unfair to be under such house arrest?"

"I don't... I don't feel it's unfair."

Seeing Yunmo's stubbornness, Gu Lin chuckled a few times, "You were born without a mother, and your father favored his eldest son, who was born out of wedlock. You have the position of young master, but you can't even protect the people you want to protect."

"I can help you, I can help you do anything you want to do."

Gu Lin's voice was like a spell, and Yun Mo's eyes gradually deepened.
