After releasing her flood of emotions, she calmed down and pulled Baili Yu over to sit at the table. Gazing at him, she hesitantly opened her mouth.
How was she supposed to tell him?
Should she directly tell him about his background and identity? Tell him that he was actually the richest person in the world, Baili Yu?
Then tell him everything that had happened?
That would probably take several days of talking, and Qing gongzi was already suspicious of her.
Since she still wasnât clear on Baili Yuâs current situation, she couldnât act rashly. Otherwise, itâd be troublesome if she ended up creating more trouble.
The most important issue was that she currently had no way to get in touch with Jun Xin!
With her martial arts level, if she tried to bring away Baili Yu who had lost his martial arts, if anything happened, the outcome would be too terrible to imagine.
In addition, it hadnât been easy for her to find him, so how could she make him suffer with her again?
Baili Yu sat opposite Tang Doudou and took in the changes in her expression. She was happy, then frowning, and her little hand would move around in little whirls as she thought about things. His lips involuntarily curled up. This lady was really adorable.
When Tang Doudou saw him smile, she glared at him in annoyance. She was feeling extremely worried, but he was still smiling?
She rubbed her chin as she peered into his eyes. âDo you trust me?â
Baili Yu didnât hesitate. âI do.â
Tang Doudouâs anger was immediately swept away. See this? This was her man! Even though he lost his memories, he still trusted her without hesitation!
âEn, Iâm relieved that you trust me.â
Baili Yu nodded. âIâm relieved too.â
âHuh?â
âIâm relieved to see that youâre relieved,â he replied.
Tang Doudou sighed as she scratched her head in vexation. âWhy canât you remember anything?â
âRemember what?â
âItâs nothing, donât worry about it.â Tang Doudou didnât plan to tell him much. Before he recovered his memories, it would just confuse him to tell him too much and it might caused Qing gongzi to realize what she was here for.
She dawdled for a while, pretty much just staring at Baili Yu while he stared back at her. Finally, Tang Doudou was defeated. She couldnât take Baili Yuâs confused, helpless and curious gaze any longer. It kept tempting her to just kidnap him.
She coughed softly, then stuck her fake mustache and brows back on. âIn a bit, when that Qing gongzi asksâ¦â
âI know what to say.â Baili Yu continued gazing at her as he said this with a smile.
Tang Doudou asked, surprised, âYou know?â
She felt stupid. As expected of intelligent people, they still remained so smart even after losing their memories.
Baili Yu curved his eyes slightly as he extended his jade-like finger to adjust Tang Doudouâs tilted mustache. âIâll say that I accompanied you in eating and playing, then we had a quiet private talk. Sir liked my service quite a lot and would be coming again to visit me.â
Wow, this was seriously perfect.
When she felt the cold finger next to her lips, she reflexively licked at it. Baili Yuâs finger stiffened and he froze.
Then he slowly shifted his gaze down.
Tang Doudouâs heart leapt. She hastily stood up and said in a fluster, âI-I, then⦠Iâll leave first.â
âAlright!â Baili Yu didnât seemed embarrassed at all and slowly pulled back his hand. He stood up as well. âIâll see you out.â
âN-no need.â Tang Doudou waved. She was a little flustered right now, so she needed to be by herself to calm down.
Baili Yu didnât insist and just said, âThen be careful.â
âAlright.â Tang Doudou walked to the door reluctantly while peeking back. When she got to the door, she turned around and said, âY-you should be careful too.â
Baili Yu nodded with a slight smile. Just this simple movement made her feel a lot more at ease.
She pushed open the door and as Qing gongzi looked at her with a strange expression, she paid the bill and left.
After leaving Wind Cherishing House, Tang Doudou gazed at the street and sighed. âIt feels like itâs been a long time since Jun Xin has popped up. Where exactly did he go?â
If Jun Xin was here, she couldâve directly taken Baili Yu away instead of going through all this trouble.
âBrother Tang, Brother Tang!â Tang Doudou had been wandering around the street. Just as she was about to head back to the inn, Lin Shuxuan and his group who had been searching for her in the city spotted her in the crowd.
âBrother Lin, what are you doing here?â She had been deep in thought about how to get Baili Yu out so it took her awhile to react and greet Lin Shuxuan.
Lin Shuxuan saw that she seemed out of it and asked, âWhat did Brother Tang see? Why did you disappear so suddenly? It was quite hard to find you.â
Tang Doudou replied, âI thought I saw someone I knew earlier in the crowd. However, when I caught up with that person, it turned out to be the wrong person.â
Lin Shuxuan revealed an understanding expression. When he recalled his phantom-like movements when he left, his eyes dimmed slightly. âIs Brother Tang about to head back to the inn?â
Tang Doudou nodded. She currently wasnât in the mood to socialize with Lin Shuxuan. âIâm a little tired.â
Upon seeing this, Lin Shuxuan gave a polite smile. âThen Brother Tang should go rest up. Iâll look for you tomorrow. Letâs go together to the Hibiscus River to view the lotus flowers?â
âThis Tang will definitely show up on time, thank you for your gracious invitation.â

Lin Shuxuan could tell that he wasnât in the mood to chat, so he bidded him goodbye and left. Before leaving though, he repeatedly exhorted that he definitely had to come tomorrow morning.
Tang Doudou didnât know what he was planning, but she agreed.
