He didn't see wrong, did he?
Gu Liyan was all too familiar with the face before him. Even though her long hair was gone and she had changed from wearing a floral dress to men's clothing, he still recognized her!
"Xiao Bai, is that you? That's wonderful! I've finally found you!" Sitting up, Gu Liyan grabbed Liu Changxian's hand, feeling its warmth, and exclaimed excitedly, "Are you alright? I've been thinking of you every day since I arrived here, and now I've finally seen you..."
Liu Changxian frowned, laboriously pulling his hand back, and coldly said, "I think you're pretending to be poisoned, but you've really gone mad! Open your eyes and look carefully, I am Liu Changxian, the eldest young master of the Liu family! Not some nobody you're talking about, some nobody!"
Upon hearing Liu Changxian's words, Gu Liyan was taken aback. Only then did she realize that even if the person in front of her was indeed Hua Baixian, she would have her memories erased due to reincarnation and would not remember her at all.
If we acknowledge each other now, it will only affect her first impression of me.
Thinking of this, Gu Liyan hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I was too excited. It's just that when I first saw you, I thought you looked a lot like my wife."
This time, it was Liu Changxian's turn to be stunned, unable to hide her surprise, her mind racing. However, seeing Gu Liyan's disappointed expression, she tried her best to conceal it, saying, "I am a dignified seven-foot man, not your wife!"
Gu Liyan looked at her, somewhat lost in thought, and nodded. "Yes, that's right. You're not her anymore..."
Liu Changxian glared at Gu Liyan with annoyance and said, "Lord Wang asked me to heal you as soon as possible, so I plan to make you fully recovered in seven days. This is a medicine I've prepared to nourish your qi and blood. Drink it."
After saying that, he picked up the black, paste-like medicine from the table and handed it over.
Gu Liyan glanced at it and immediately remembered that she had drunk someone's medicine and looked similar. Looking at Liu Changxian's face, which was exactly the same as that person's, who else could it be but her!
Thinking of the time they had spent together, Gu Liyan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"What are you laughing at?! My medicine may make this face look ugly, but its effects are definitely better than those of those unscrupulous doctors outside!" Seeing Gu Liyan's frivolous attitude, Liu Changxian spoke up in exasperation.
Gu Liyan smiled slightly, reached out and took the medicine from Liu Changxian, then drank it down in one gulp.
Seeing Gu Liyan calmly and composedly drink his medicine without even frowning, Liu Changxian looked at Gu Liyan with some surprise.
She herself would find this medicine hard to swallow, and she thought that Gu Liyan would only drink a sip or two. Unexpectedly, this guy calmly and composedly drank it all!
Liu Changxian thought to himself, "Could this guy be without a sense of taste? If so, I can ask him to try the other medicines for me!"
Liu Changxian smiled and said, "Alright, you should rest now. I still have things to take care of."
Seeing that Liu Changxian was about to leave, Gu Liyan hurriedly grabbed his hand, "Wait! Don't go!"
Liu Changxian frowned and glared at Gu Liyan's hand that was gripping hers, coldly saying, "Let go!"
"I'm sorry..." Seeing Liu Changxian's anger, Gu Liyan hurriedly let go of her hand.
"Although you are my patient, don't forget that you are now in my Liu residence! If you do anything outrageous or disrespectful, I will not hesitate to kick you out!" Liu Changxian said coldly.
Gu Liyan nodded hurriedly, looking like he had done something wrong, and said weakly, "I, I know. Don't be angry, I just wanted to tell you my name."
Liu Changxian glared at Gu Liyan. "I know, Wang Qi said your surname is Mo..."
"My name is Mo Li. You can call me Xiao Li," Gu Liyan said hurriedly, afraid that Liu Changxian wouldn't know his name.
Liu Changxian said impatiently, "Alright, Mr. Mo, you can rest now."
As Liu Changxian was about to leave, Gu Liyan anxiously asked, "Xian'er, when will you come again?"
Liu Changxian said irritably, "Who told you to call me Xian'er! But don't worry, I'll definitely collect your corpse when you're about to die!"
After saying that, Liu Changxian turned and left.
Gu Liyan showed no anger, but instead shouted excitedly at Liu Changxian's retreating figure, "As long as I can see you, I will die without regrets..."
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, Liu Changxian, who was walking to the door, almost tripped and muttered, "This guy is a madman!"
Hearing Liu Changxian's footsteps fading into the distance, Gu Liyan finally couldn't hold back any longer and vomited up the medicine he had just drunk, dry heaving with a pained expression.
For Gu Liyan, this pain was something he willingly accepted.
Liu Changxian returned to the study and found Butler Lin there. Liu Changxian asked in confusion, "Butler Lin, is there something you need?"
"Young Master, the Liu family from the capital has sent people," Butler Lin whispered. "They're here for the new potion formula you proposed..."
Liu Changxian frowned deeply and coldly said from his seat, "These guys are really good at getting information! The antidote that was sent to Chuhefang a few days ago has already reached the capital!"
Liu Changxian squinted and said, "It seems I should find some time to visit Chuhefang."
"Young Master, why don't we let them leave..." Butler Lin suggested.
Liu Changxian stood up and waved his hand, saying, "No need, I'll go and greet the host's guests!"
Upon entering the hall, a young woman dressed in a Western-style dress and high heels, with golden curly hair and delicate features, examined the surrounding decorations.
"The capital city is truly not what it used to be. The Liu family was once a great family, one of the four great families, yet one of its branches is so shabby!" Liu Liuli sneered.
The maidservant beside her sneered, "How can the Liu family of this small royal city compare to our imperial city!"
