Chapter 69 The Fool's True Self is the Demon Lord

Shen Zhi married into the Jiang family in the autumn. Now winter has passed and spring has arrived, and it is almost early summer.

The wheat has sprouted, and the overwhelming green appears full of vitality. The green aroma of wheat floats in the wind, natural and peaceful.

Shen Zhi had not taken off his thin coat in early summer; he could not stand the slightest bit of cold.

Shen Zhi and Yin Nan were arguing, and they agreed that everyone had to work and not be lazy. However, Shen Zhi always complained of being tired before the work even started, and hid under a tree to rest in the cool air.

Someone pulled up Shen Zhi's soft cheeks, and he suddenly opened his eyes, with a tall shadow cast in front of him.

Yin Nan squatted leisurely and crushed a few wheat seedlings in his palm. The tender wheat sprouts broke out of the shells, gurgling and rolling into the depression of his palm.

Yin Nan glanced at Shen Zhi, who was staring at him intently and almost drooling. He raised his hand to the level of Shen Zhi's face and deliberately blew the wheat husk onto Shen Zhi's face.

Shen Zhi was so blinded by the squinting that he coughed a few times and said angrily, "Jiang Dongsheng!"

Seeing that Shen Zhi was irritated and did not stop while he was ahead, Yin Nan found it particularly interesting and chuckled a few times.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore," Yin Nan said perfunctorily. He stretched out his hand to pinch Shen Zhi's chin to make him look up, and poured the malt in his hand into his mouth, "Chew it."

Shen Zhi subconsciously puffed up his cheeks, and the green sweetness splashed on his taste buds. He said in surprise: "So sweet, so delicious."

Yin Nan grabbed Shen Zhi's arm and pulled him up, unmoved, "The delicious food is gone, let's go back quickly."

Shen Zhi angrily followed Yin Nan and made small moves. Yin Nan always liked to provoke him and never got tired of it.

Shen Zhi would step on Yin Nan's heels from time to time, or deliberately bump into his back. Yin Nan, who was annoyed, let Shen Zhi do whatever he wanted and ignored him. Shen Zhi just enjoyed himself.

The gate of the East Courtyard leads to another road. When passing the West Courtyard, the noise inside is extremely intense. From time to time, sounds of smashing and crying can be heard.

Yin Nan paused, asked Shen Zhi to go back first, and then called Gu Diao to inquire about the situation.

"Qi Wenyan was arrested for selling alcohol on the black market, and the charge was speculation."

Yin Nan also had some knowledge of the laws here. This crime was serious, but it was not serious either, as redeeming the person would cost a large sum of money.

Qi Wenyan was redeemed. After deducting the costs from the money he earned these days, there was very little left. How could Qi Wenyan not collapse?

"Jiang Nian, you actually want to divorce me? Just get a divorce. I have long seen through you, a treacherous man. You like that bastard Shen Zhi, right?" Qi Wenyan's hair was disheveled, his clothes were torn, and he screamed at the top of his lungs like a madman.

Jiang Nian's face was calm, and he broke free from Qi Wenyan's tightly grasped sleeve. "Xiao Zhi and I are innocent. No matter what you say, I can't live with you anymore."

Qi Wenyan was like a madman, he was reborn, and this time Jiang Nian had abandoned him earlier, he came back to slap Jiang Nian in the face. Now that Jiang Nian looked down on him, Qi Wenyan could not accept it no matter what.

"You want a divorce, but I won't. I'll drag you to death." Jiang Nian is just dreaming about living with Shen Zhi forever. He won't let them have an easy time.

Don't think he didn't know that Jiang Nian was still greedy. He was happy that Shen Zhi would finally experience the hardship of farm work like him, but Shen Zhi hadn't worked for two days when Jiang Nian showed him his courtesy.

Shen Zhi was still enjoying his life, how could he not hate him.

Jiang Nian's eyebrows were filled with anger, and he couldn't help scolding, "It was you who took advantage of me being drunk and climbed into my bed, which caused Xiaozhi and I to separate. Xiaozhi and I were originally happy, but it was you who ruined our marriage."

Qi Wenyan's hatred was ignited by Jiang Nian's words.

Qi Wenyan laughed loudly: "Jiang Nian, you blame me now? You don't remember what you did that night, but you put it all on me. Can I force you?!!"

Jiang Nian couldn't bear it any longer, so he pushed Qi Wenyan away and walked out angrily.

When Jiang Nian opened the door, he saw Jiang Dongsheng standing outside. His face was expressionless but the gloom in his eyes could not be hidden. He didn't expect that he heard everything that was said in the room.

Jiang Nian moved his lips to explain, but Yin Nan had already left.

"What's going on outside?" Shen Zhi leaned against the door and looked out, and asked curiously when he saw Yin Nan.

Yin Nan's eyes flickered slightly, and he said calmly: "Jiang Nian wants to divorce Qi Wenyan."

Yin Nan stared at Shen Zhi's expression closely. Shen Zhi said "Oh", as if he had heard something trivial that had nothing to do with him.

For some reason, Yin Nan breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since Yin Nan started cooking, Shen Zhi's appetite has improved a lot. He can have rice and noodles all day long and also stir-fried dishes, which are so delicious.

"Why don't you eat the scrambled eggs?" Shen Zhi picked them up with chopsticks. Yin Nan just drank the porridge and ate the steamed bun. He couldn't help but wonder.

You don't even want to eat good things. Are you so picky?

No matter what, Yin Nan would never eat the eggs laid by his pet. That was too weird.

"Save it for you to eat," Yin Nan evaded the question.

Shen Zhi didn't think there was anything wrong. Before Jiang Dongsheng lost his memory, he was reluctant to eat and drink, and saved everything for him.

Shen Zhi was eating happily when he suddenly felt a warm current flowing down his nose. He wiped it with the back of his hand in confusion and bright red blood immediately appeared in front of his eyes.

Shen Zhi looked at Yin Nan for help. Yin Nan stood up and helped Shen Zhi stop the bleeding. "You ate too much."

As expected, ordinary people cannot eat too many spirit beast eggs. Yin Nan found a piece of soft cloth and covered Shen Zhi with it.

Shen Zhiyou looked at the uneaten egg on the plate with suspicion. Is this how you replenish it?

Seeing that Shen Zhi was reluctant to part with the egg he hadn't finished, Yin Nan took the egg away cruelly, "You can't eat any more. Your body is weak and cannot be replenished."

Shen Zhi said "Oh" in a muffled voice, and then asked, "Are you saving it for yourself to eat tomorrow?"

"No, it's going to go bad tomorrow because of the hot weather," Yin Nan found an excuse not to eat the eggs, "so I dumped them in the chicken coop."

As soon as Yin Nan finished speaking, Shen Zhi saw the extremely ugly bird rushing past the window like an arrow.

"So fast," Shen Zhi exclaimed, then came back to think about Yin Nan's words and asked doubtfully, "You let the chicken eat the eggs?"

Yin Nan naturally couldn't tell Shen Zhi that those were not eggs laid by a hen but by a male bird, so he gave Shen Zhi a reasonable explanation, "It's to supplement their nutrition."

Shen Zhi: ...

He was speechless.

Yin Nan's sharp ears heard the movement in the chicken coop. Gu Diao rushed to the chicken coop and forced the other chickens into a corner. He flatteredly pushed the plate in front of a noble and cold hen, "Ahua, have some. I just laid eggs. They are so delicious."

Yin Nan: ...

Could it be that what he raises is a dog instead of a bird?

They both fell silent.

After a while, Yin Nan said, "I'm going to the city in a few days, are you coming?"

Shen Zhi looked at Yin Nan in surprise, not knowing what Yin Nan was going to do. Shen Zhi actually had something to do, so he nodded.

Yin Nan is going to see Lu Cong. If he is really the lost child of the Lu family, Yin Nan glances at Shen Zhi who is worried, and he has to leave a way out.

There was a lot of clamor for divorce in the West Courtyard, but they were finally persuaded to give up by Chiang's father and mother. In that era, divorce was a shameful thing, and no parents would watch their children get divorced unless it was absolutely necessary.

Qi Wenyan calmed down a lot after these things happened. Jiang Nian was tired of him and almost lived in the school.

The East Courtyard was harmonious. Li Cuijuan thought more than once that it would be great if the eldest son was really her biological son. It would be pleasing to see the young couple getting along so well.

Shen Zhi and Yin Nan arrived in the city. He knew that Yin Nan would not come to the city for no reason. He did not want to find out anything. He also had something to do so he chose to separate: "You go and do your work. I will find you after you are done."

Yin Nan did not refuse. He raised his hand and pressed Shen Zhi's shoulder, his eyes solemn, "Okay."

The barely perceptible light disappeared from Shen Zhi's shoulder.

Shen Zhi did not go anywhere else but went directly to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, anonymously stuffed the materials reporting the Shen family into the mailbox and left in a hurry.

The Shen family had installed a telephone, and Shen Zhi hesitantly called the Shen family.

Shen Zhi didn't know who would answer the call, Shen Siyi, Zhou Meiling or their son.

Shen Zhi actually had nothing to say to any of them, but he just wanted to know whether these heartless people were still living as happily as before.

"Hello?" The maid picked up the phone.

Shen Zhi took a deep breath and said, "I... am Shen Zhi."

Amid the unclear sound of electricity, Shen Zhi heard the servant say, "It's the eldest master calling."

The servant looked at the three people sitting happily on the sofa. Zhou Meiling waved her hands impatiently. The servant replied, "Master, the old master, the mistress, and the young master are not at home."

No matter how clumsy the lie was, Shen Zhi felt relieved and had no regrets. He thought that he should not try to find a little guilt in them. They deserved retribution.

Shen Zhi released his strength, closed his eyes and slowed down. Where he couldn't see, the light on his shoulder emerged and flew into the air, following the trail of light and into the hands of its owner.

Yin Nan listened indifferently to the man in front of him constructing the treatment and abundant assets that he would be able to enjoy if he was willing to return to the Lu family. Yin Nan's family fortune in his previous life was more than ten or a hundred times greater than that.

He doesn't really care.

Lu Cong was so dry-mouthed after talking that he glanced at the calm young master in front of him and couldn't help but admire him in his heart. He was indeed a descendant of the Lu family and had the same general style as his old master.

Yin Nan retracted the light seal, and when the light spot engulfed his fingertips, Yin Nan narrowed his eyes.

When Lu Cong didn't get a clear answer from Yin Nan for a long time, Yin Nan finally raised his eyes and said, "Go and do one more thing for me."

Lu Cong was originally a member of the Lu family. He responded to the orders of the young master of the Lu family without hesitation and nodded quickly.

However, Lu Cong had one last thing to ask, "Are you bringing Young Master Shen with you when you return to the Lu family?"

Yin Nan didn't let Lu Cong wait too long this time, and said, "We'll talk later."

Lu Cong didn't understand what he meant, and when he looked again, Yin Nan had already left.

Yin Nan followed the light and found Shen Zhi, who looked listless and not very happy.

Yin Nan thought Shen Zhi would be in a bad mood all the time, but unexpectedly, when he returned home, Shen Zhi was surprisingly interested.

Shen Zhi was rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for something, and Yin Nan did not disturb him, but just watched him quietly.

Shen Zhi found all the wrinkled envelopes and a dozen oil paintings.

Shen Zhi pulled Yin Nan and said, "I'll help you recall what happened. Who knows, you might remember it later."

After giving away the last trump card, Shen Zhi felt relieved. Without the Shen family, Shen Zhi thought that he should focus on Jiang Dongsheng, because this was the person he wanted to spend his life with.

Shen Zhi held up the envelope, which had been stained by rain and dried in the sun, and looked a little worn. "Do you remember that you walked barefoot for more than ten miles in the rain just to deliver a letter to my grandfather?"

It was dark outside and only the flickering candlelight was heard in the room. Yin Nan's face was cast in shadow, exuding an icy sharpness for no apparent reason.

Shen Zhi thought he didn't remember, and then spread out the oil painting. All kinds of flowers surrounded Yin Nan, as if he was sitting in a sea of ​​flowers.

Yin Nan could tell that this was the flower that Jiang Dongsheng saw in his dream.

"You pestered me to draw this. You liked all of them, but you only left me one." Shen Zhi pushed the painting in front of Yin Nan, "These are all yours."

Yin Nan curled his fingers slightly. They were not his. All these paintings were not his. They belonged to Jiang Dongsheng, that idiot.

Shen Zhi saw that Yin Nan looked unusual, and asked anxiously, "Did you remember anything?"

Yin Nan raised his eyes, and saw Shen Zhi's worried and nervous expression. Yin Nan's throat seemed to be blocked, and he could only utter a few words, "No."

Yin Nan did not miss Shen Zhi's obvious disappointment.

He has memories, but those memories are not his. They belong to Shen Zhi and that idiot, and are memories that belong exclusively to the two of them.

Not a bit about him.

Shen Zhi put away the painting in disappointment, slowly moved over to hug him, gently caressing him and comforting him: "It doesn't matter if you can't remember it now, you will remember it later."

Yin Nan lowered his eyes. He could not feel the warmth from Shen Zhi even when he was hugged by him. His deep voice was hidden in the darkness. "What if I can never remember it?"
