Gu Yunru watched the big men put down some food like steamed buns and leave, and winked at Cheng Shaoyuan who was standing beside her.

"Hey, don't you have anything to say?"

"You and I are both prisoners now. What else can we say?"

Cheng Shaoyuan shook his head helplessly, already feeling extremely disappointed with all this.

"Don't be like this. How about we think of a way to leave a signal to those people outside?"

"You have a good idea."

"Hehe, luckily I have prepared something!" Gu Yunru looked at him with a smile and threw the medicine bottle in her hand away.

"What's in here?" Cheng Shaoyuan vaguely smelled a pungent odor inside, but he couldn't tell what it was for the time being.

"This contains a colorless and odorless powder that I specially prepared. It will only glow when the temperature is too low. I have sprinkled it on the ground along the way. The people from the Qisha Gang will definitely not notice it. In this way, the people from the Ministry of Justice will be able to find us based on this clue."

Gu Yunru said this complacently. Now he wanted to see where these bandits from the Qisha Gang would run to.

"You are still smart and calm enough." Cheng Shaoyuan looked at her with admiration. He had met so many women, but only Gu Yunru had such a broad mind and such a resourceful mind.

"No need to praise me, we just need to wait for help."

The two were whispering when they suddenly heard footsteps approaching from the door. Gu Yunru gave him a look and the two pretended to fall asleep.

Kang Keren came to Gu Yunru and took off the veil on her head. Gu Yunru squinted her eyes quietly, wanting to see who the person was. But she was shocked when she saw it. Wasn't this the long-missing Kang Keren? How could she appear here?

"Miss Kang!" Gu Yunru immediately widened her eyes. Since she was an old acquaintance, then this matter would be easy to handle. However, looking at Kang Keren's calm expression, coupled with her flickering eyes, it seemed like a meeting between strangers, and her words were indeed a bit abrupt.

"Do you know me?" Kang Keren's beautiful eyes flashed with a cold light, and she looked at Gu Yunru steadily. Gu Yunru nodded quickly, "Of course I know you. Miss Kang, you have been missing for so long, where have you been? Don't you know that General Huang is very worried about you?"

"General Huang, what General Huang? I don't even know him." Kang Keren looked absent-minded now, as if she had lost her memory. Gu Yunru looked at her expression and it was not an act. Could it be that she had really lost all her memories? Gu Yunru tried hard to make her recall the past, including the series of things that happened in the desert... and the border, but Kang Keren looked as if she had no idea.

"Is this person your friend?" Cheng Shaoyuan, who had been sitting aside without saying a word, finally spoke.

"Yes, this is a good friend I met in the frontier, but for some reason, she disappeared in the desert, and later no one knew where she went. Miss Kang, where have you been these days? Why did you appear in the Qisha Gang again?"

Kang Keren's mind was in a mess. She looked at Gu Yunru's sincere eyes, which didn't seem like she was lying. She put the tip of the sword in her hand against her neck, her cold eyes emitting chill.

Gu Yunru was startled by her strange look. In the past, Miss Kang was always gentle and affectionate, and would not easily look at others with such eyes. The eyes were sharp and revealed a deep chill that made people's scalps numb.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Kang Keren was still confused and half-believing what Gu Yunru said. Otherwise, how would she know her name? "Miss Kang, it doesn't matter if you don't remember me, but think about it, if we are not friends, how would I know your name?"

Gu Yunru's hands were tied behind her back. While talking to her, she tried to use this opportunity to break free from the ropes.

"Oh, my head hurts!" Kang Keren followed her instructions and slowly recalled the past events. But before she could get too deep into it, she felt a heart-wrenching pain coming up from the deepest part. She felt as painful as an ant suffering in a hot pot.

"Ah!" The sword in Kang Keren's hand fell to the ground with a snap. She collapsed and squatted on the side, hitting her head desperately. Seeing this, Gu Yunru immediately broke free from the rope in her hand, ran to Kang Keren and said, "Are you okay, Miss Kang?"

"I can't remember anything, I can't remember anything. I only know that I want revenge, I want revenge!" Kang Keren's delicate and beautiful face gradually became distorted, her eyes became dull, and she lost her spirit and innocence.

"Miss Kang..."

Gu Yunru was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He took her wrist and felt her pulse, and found that her pulse was very chaotic, as if there were countless resistances in her body preventing her from recalling those broken memories.

Seeing that she looked possessed, Gu Yunru pulled out the hairpin on her head. There was a silver needle hidden in the hairpin. She had already set up a mechanism. She stabbed it into her head. Kang Keren's expression really returned to rationality.

I thought she would get better, but she turned her eyes upside down and fainted in her arms. Cheng Shaoyuan said to her, "How did you untie it? Help me untie it!"

Gu Yunru saw that both sides were busy, and heard hurried footsteps coming from outside, so she quickly dragged Kang Keren behind the cabinet and hid her. She then pretended to put her hands behind her back and looked at the people who came in.

"What's all the noise..."

Several bandits who were guarding not far away heard the commotion in the house and came over to check. They found that nothing had happened. Gu Yunru smiled at them and said, "Gentlemen, these steamed buns are too hard. How about changing to softer ones?"

Unexpectedly, these burly men had no time to pay attention to her. After looking around and finding nothing wrong, they left. Hearing the sound of the door being locked, Gu Yunru couldn't help but look sad and said to Cheng Shaoyuan beside her: "Don't worry, I'll unlock it for you now."

"Well, but by the way, do you really know that girl just now?"

Looking at the girl's obsessed expression just now, he still felt a little scared.

"I met her before at the border. She was a spy for Da Qi. I don't know why Zi Luo took her back. She must have been brainwashed and her memory stolen. I must find a way to make her remember the past."
