Ping’er cast her murderous eyes toward Hua Xiaolong, who first held Hua Yueling’s hands and said to her in a cute tone, “Sis, let’s go out to find Shasha?”
“Ok, but you have to tell me honestly where your former residence was, where our wet nurse was and how they came here.” Hua Yueling demanded more detailed information.
But Hua Xiaolong scratched his head and shook heavily. “Sorry, I didn’t remember at all. But I only know Shasha who failed to recognize me.” When he said this, he seemed a little bit aggrieved as if he was a child abandoned by his mother.
Hua Yueling heaved a sign and thought she had to ask Xiang’er in person. If she was Shasha, how could she desert her master? Besides, her present condition could enable him to give a sufficient provision to Xiaolong. Therefore, there must be something very tricky beyond her knowledge.
“Well, Xiaolong, how long have you been here?” Hua Yueling looked at him gently.
“I have no idea, but it must be a long, long time.” His big eyes revealed a sense of loneliness and scare.
“Poor kid, come here and stay with me from now on.” A strong feeling of sympathy welled up from her bosom.
“You’re so kind, sister. Those guys are good at beating me.” His words broke her heart into pieces and Hua Yueling thought to herself that if Xiang’er happened to be Shasha, then Xiang’er deserved her death.
“It won’t happen again. If there is anyone who dares to bully me, just come to inform me and I will give him a good lesson!”
“My wet nurse told me not to beat others because it is not good.” Hua Xiaolong shook his head toward her.
“Xiaolong, you only remember your wet nurse and Shasha? How about your mother? Do you have any impression?” Hua Yueling thought he only lost his memory temporarily.
What she said threw him into confusion. Then a plot in TV series suddenly struck her and she said to him instantly, “Xiaolong, can you tolerate a temporary severe pain?”
“What! Why?” Hua Xiaolong looked at her in bewilderment.
“Oh, I see there is a bulge on the back of your head. If I hit it back, you may remember everything.” She was so familiar with the common plot in TV and besides she herself was a time traveler. Her approach might work this time.
“Really? It’s fantastic! I’m going to remember everything!”
“Ok, then squat and try to tolerate the pain!” Hua Yueling coaxed him.
“Ok, I am no coward of anguish.” Hua Xiaolong obediently squatted.
“Miss?” Ping’er asked her master in an odd tone and she really had no idea of what her master was going to do.
“Relax! It’s going to be fine. I just want to have a try because he just can-not remember what happened after he was ten years old.” Upon finishing these, she waved her arm and gave his head a heavy hit.
“Ouch!” Hua Xiaolong was pushed forward, lying on the ground, motionless.
“Miss!” Ping’er was scared to death after seeing this.
In haste, Hua Yueling squatted beside Hua Xiaolong and felt his breath, saying, “It’s very easy to pass out if the back of one’s head was hit. Go and fetch a carriage, we shall go back home.”
When Hua Yueling stepped into her mansion, she bumped into Ye You who was sweating and panting for searching her.
“Ye You, how is it?” Hua Yueling inquired him.
“Miss, you finally show up. I have signed the contract with Wind & Moon Tea House and given the agreed money to the owner. Three days later you will officially have it.” Ye You was really a good helper.
“Well done! Now, get Xiaolong out of the sedan first.” Hua Yueling directed the carriage to her Bright Moon Pavilion.
“Xiaolong?” Ye You turned around and cast a bewildering look toward Ping’er.
“It is a beggar who was saved by our lady.” Ping’er looked sulky, ‘When on earth had she had a face like pancake?’
“What? A beggar!” Ye You was still in a daze. But he obediently carried the man out of the carriage.
“Ping’er, don’t call him Beggar again! You should not look down on him.” Hua Yueling shouted to her.
“Yes! Miss!” Ping’er bit her mouth with greivance.
“You know, he is just a kid. Don’t take it seriously. While, your face now looks like a big pancake, which makes me starve right now. Go and prepare some food.” Hua Yueling smiled to herself.
“Miss, how can you...?” Ping’er stamped her feet in offence to show her discomfort to her lady’s mockery.
“Well! Your face reminds us of food, which is far far better than poop!” Hua Yueling comforted her immediately.
Ping’er became livid while blushed and she had never seen such a comforter. What she could only do was to prepare food obediently.
“Miss, where to put him?” carrying Hua Xiaolong, Ye You followed her master.
“Put him in the room beside yours. You two can take care of each other. Ye You, he might lose his memory just like you. His intelligence was only the same with a ten-year-old kid. So, you’d better have more tolerance.” Hua Yueling walked into the room with Ye You.
What she said threw Ye You into disbelief even though he didn’t have time to inspect his face.
“Tell me why there are so many memory-lost cuties in the world. Maybe you know each other?” The thought made her laugh wholeheartedly. In such a short time, she already had two cuties, which was really a special treat.
With his mouth convulsed, Ye You put Xiaolong on the bed and raised up to have a close look at him. He staggered a few steps back at the mere sight of him.
“Ye You, what’s the matter?” Hua Yueling was puzzled by his unsteady standing.
As Ye You looked at the fair face of the man on the bed, his eyebrows knitted and he uttered, “He looks so familiar.” That’s true. He was so familiar to Ye You.
“Really? Then are you from the same clan?” Hua Yueling exclaimed.
“What’s wrong with him then?” Puzzle and bewilderment penetrated through his deep dark eyes and he was wondering why that man seemed so familiar.
“Knocked down by me, but he will come to his sense soon.” Hua Yueling laid great hope to her unique way of treatment.
“Why knock him down?” Ye You asked with the corner of his mouth twitched.
“Because he lost his memory and I am helping him to remember. All right, you may have a try and it might be workable.” Hua Yueling looked up at him seriously.
“Miss, how do you know that it is workable?” Ye You inquired further.
“Actually, I am not so sure. It’s just a try anyhow!” She shrugged her shoulders innocently for she got it from TV.
Her innocent expression did stun Ye You, who instantly got the feeling of vomiting blood, and he thought to himself how she could be reasonable to beat an innocent man.
“Well, do you know Xiang’er from Emerald Lake Tower?” Seeing his black face, Hua Yueling changed the topic quickly.
“Yes, she is the confidante of official Xu. The Fourth Prince and I have been there several times but I don’t have more contact with Xiang’er.” Ye You replied while furrowing his brows.
“Oh? That is to say you don’t know her. But Xiaolong knows her and he is the beggar who hung around Emerald Lake Tower to steal food. Do you have any impression?” Hua Yueling explained more.
“What? Him!” Ye You obviously knew him. His messy hair and dirtiness made him fail to recognize Xiaolong.
“Right! He said he only knew Xiang’er, who was once his maid named Shasha. And he said his name is Crown Prince.” While saying these, Hua Yueling never let her eye off Ye You.
“Crown Prince?” Thunderstruck, Ye You with a changed face turned to Xiaolong who was on the bed. His head suddenly ached and instantly he held his head with his two hands in anguish.
Seeing this, Hua Yueling rushed to him and gave a heavy hit to the back of his head. Ye You turned around to look at him in surprise.
“Ha-ha, you may remember everything when you wake up.” Hua Yueling gave him her evil smile and saw him lying down on the ground motionlessly.
Ping’er cast her murderous eyes toward Hua Xiaolong, who first held Hua Yueling’s hands and said to her in a cute tone, “Sis, let’s go out to find Shasha?”
“Ok, but you have to tell me honestly where your former residence was, where our wet nurse was and how they came here.” Hua Yueling demanded more detailed information.
