Chapter 231 A Young Lady from a Noble Family VS A Humble Remnant Slave 33
night.
Jiang Zhiyi finally woke up, and the maids who were taking care of her quickly called the doctor over.
After examining the patient, the doctor said, "There's nothing seriously wrong. He just needs to rest in bed for a few more days."
Lin Sheng was finally relieved.
"Who are you? Where is Jiang Qi? I want Jiang Qi..." Jiang Zhiyi didn't recognize the people in front of her at all, and she asked about Jiang Qi's whereabouts.
Lin Sheng frowned and said, "I'm your senior brother, junior sister. What's wrong with you? Don't you even remember me?"
Jiang Zhiyi shook her head, a hint of wariness in her eyes. "I don't know you... I need to see Jiang Qi. Where did he go? I need to see him."
Half an hour later.
Jiu Zhan: "I have told you everything I know. I think they must have both taken pills, which is why they are like this."
Lin Sheng was stunned for a long time before asking, "Is there any way to reverse the effects of this medicine?"
Nine Slashes: "Only the master knows."
Lin Sheng looked at Jiang Qi, who had just regained consciousness but had fallen unconscious again, and sighed, "Then let's wait until he wakes up before we talk about it."
...
A few days later.
The group gathered together and shared everything they knew.
Afterwards, they all watched Jiang Qi and Jiang Zhiyi's reactions... After all, all of this was caused by these two ancestors.
Jiang Qi remained silent, clearly still pondering their earlier conversation.
Jiang Zhiyi was even more bewildered; she felt that things weren't like that.
If she didn't like Jiang Qi, then what about the words on the portrait? Judging from the traces of their interactions, she clearly depended on him, and Jiang Qi even sacrificed himself to blow up the secret room so that they could be rescued.
She felt that someone was definitely spreading rumors.
In short, she now only trusts Jiang Qi and won't believe a word anyone else says.
Jiang Zhiyi leaned close and whispered to Jiang Qi, "I think they're all liars, just trying to trick us into going back. Let's sneak away, or it'll be too late!"
Although she spoke very softly, the people around her were all cultivators with profound spiritual power, so they could hear her words clearly.
Lin Sheng rubbed his temples helplessly. What was he going to do with his junior sister...?
"Alright, you two come back to the Floating Cloud Sect with me. Now that things have come to this, I don't know what to do. We should follow Master's instructions," Lin Sheng said.
Jiu Zhan and the others were naturally unwilling. "You can leave on your own. The master cannot go with you."
Lin Sheng ignored him, looked at Jiang Qi beside him, and asked, "What do you think?"
Jiang Qi pondered for a moment, then looked at Jiang Zhiyi beside him, who was clearly oblivious to the situation.
Although he remembers nothing now, he still feels a strange emotion for her, like ripples on a calm lake, subtle yet lasting.
“Then let’s go,” Jiang Qi replied.
"Master, you mustn't!" Jiu Zhan tried to dissuade him.
Regardless of whether the Floating Cloud Sect would scheme against Jiang Qi, now that both of them have lost their memories, it's a perfect opportunity to separate. If they were to become entangled again, wouldn't all their previous efforts be in vain?
Jiang Zhiyi was somewhat dissatisfied; she knew that Jiu Zhan wanted Jiang Qi to leave her.
She grabbed Jiang Qi's arm and then said fiercely to Jiu Zhan, "Shut up! Jiang Qi has to come with me, and no one can separate us."
Nine Slashes: "You..."
Seeing this, Lin Sheng added, "Don't worry, as the eldest disciple of the Floating Cloud Sect, I guarantee we won't harm Jiang Qi. Besides, his heart meridian is injured, and to fully heal him, we'll need the Floating Cloud Sect's secret medicine..."
Nine Slashes was helpless, but had no choice but to compromise, saying, "We will follow along."
"Okay," Lin Sheng agreed immediately.
...
A few days later, the group stayed at an inn.
Because both Jiang Zhiyi and Jiang Qi were injured and unable to use magic, they could only travel slowly.
Lin Sheng originally wanted Jiang Zhiyi and Jiang Qi to live separately. Now he knew that he had misunderstood the matter of the child, but it was still better for them to keep to themselves to avoid actually having a child.
But Jiang Zhiyi absolutely refused to agree, insisting on sleeping with Jiang Qi no matter what.
After the group argued for a while, Lin Sheng had no choice but to give in to her.
Inside the room.
The bright moonlight streamed in through the small window, as if spreading a layer of silvery frost over the room.
Jiang Zhiyi hesitated, "Jiang Qi, do you think we should listen to them and break up? If what they say is true, and we don't actually have any feelings for each other... But..."
But she just doesn't want to be separated from him right now.
Jiang Qi thought for a moment and then spoke his mind: "Then let's do it according to our current idea, otherwise we will definitely regret it."
“You’re right, that’s what I think too.” Jiang Zhiyi felt that his words made a lot of sense.
After thinking it through, she closed her eyes and prepared to sleep, tossing and turning to find a comfortable position.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Qi asked.
"I feel uncomfortable," Jiang Zhiyi groaned a few times.
Almost instinctively, as if he had done it countless times before, Jiang Qi picked her up and let her half-lie on him, saying, "Sleep."
Jiang Zhiyi naturally lay down, and she felt much more comfortable now.
She thought to herself that the two of them were so in sync, clearly indicating that they were very close and familiar with each other.
She must have liked him a lot before.
Jiang Zhiyi felt a sweet warmth in her heart, as if she had received a generous reward for completing a task.
Hmm? What mission? I can't remember.
In her dream, Jiang Zhiyi saw some unpleasant scenes. Jiang Qi threw her into a dark dungeon and said he would let a demon beast eat her...
Jiang Zhiyi suddenly woke up and looked at Jiang Qi sleeping soundly beside her. She suddenly felt sad and aggrieved.
Today she read a storybook. In the story, Da Niu lost his memory after falling into the water and completely forgot his childhood sweetheart Xiao Cui. In the blink of an eye, he married A Hua from the next village.
Now both she and Jiang Qi have lost their memories; they have forgotten everything about each other, and there are many people around them who are trying to prevent them from being together.
So... will Jiang Qi also change his mind?
Jiang Zhiyi became increasingly angry as she thought about it. She sat up in bed and woke up Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi was a little confused, but before he could speak, Jiang Zhiyi had already thrown herself into his arms.
She voiced all her concerns. She didn't really want to be like this, but she just couldn't help it.
Jiang Qi had no choice but to patiently coax her for a long time. These things didn't seem so unfamiliar to her, as if she were used to them.
"I'll try to make the antidote so we can both remember what happened before, okay? Don't cry anymore, be good," he said softly.
Jiang Zhiyi wiped her tears all over him, soaking his shirt at the chest. Her voice was aggrieved as she said, "Then you have to hurry."
"Okay." He patted her head.
"Put me to sleep." Jiang Zhiyi hugged his waist tightly.
Jiang Qi didn't know how to coax him for a moment.
Seeing that he hadn't moved, Jiang Zhi urged him again, "Jiang Qi, hurry up!"
"How do I coax him? I don't remember..." Jiang Qi had no choice but to tell the truth.
Jiang Zhiyi recalled the words in the storybooks, thinking that all lovers in the world are probably similar and that this is how they get along.
She then made up a story: "You have to hold me, kiss me every now and then, pat my back, and say, 'My little darling, my little baby...'"
Jiang Qi hesitated for a moment, feeling that what she was saying didn't seem quite right.
Jiang Zhiyi immediately tried to cover it up, saying, "You used to do this all the time! I just remembered."
Having no other choice, Jiang Qi could only do as she said.
The two slept with their necks intertwined, intimately close.
The night deepened...
The man inside the room continued to speak softly, coaxing her with utmost tenderness.
"My darling...my little baby..."
Outside, the round moon in the sky seemed to be ashamed of hearing these sweet words of love, and hid behind the clouds, refusing to come out again.
Jiang Zhiyi could never have imagined that for a long time to come, whenever she thought about those awkward actions from today, she would feel so ashamed that her ears would turn red, her cheeks would burn, and she would wish she could find a hole to crawl into.
It's practically the darkest chapter in her life.
