"I'm hungry, and I want to have this right now. You should help me deliver it."

Hearing her say this, Aunt Liu stopped trying to persuade her and said, "Well, fine, then Miss, eat it while it's hot. I'll take it to Master Zhang."

"Thank you, Aunt Liu."

After Aunt Liu left, Zheng Zhihui sat at the table, looking at the bowl of glutinous rice dumplings in wine. She couldn't help but pick up the spoon and take a bite. It was sweet and soft, with a faint aroma of wine. Lingering on her taste buds... it was an indescribable familiar taste.

It was a smell she really liked.

Zheng Zhihui was a little dazed, and her mind froze for a moment.

the other side.

Aunt Liu walked into Zhang Boxuan's study carrying the fermented rice wine. The air was filled with the smell of nicotine. She glanced at the ashtray on the desk and saw quite a few cigarette butts in it.

"Master Zhang, this is the fermented rice wine that the young lady asked me to bring you. Would you like to try it?"

Zhang Boxuan looked at the fermented rice in front of him in surprise. He was stunned for a long time before looking up at Aunt Liu, a little unbelieving, "Did she ask me to send it?"

Isn't she... still angry with him?

Aunt Liu looked at the joy flashing in those dark eyes and said with a smile, "Yes, the young lady was worried that you didn't have a good dinner, so she asked me to bring it to you."

The haze that had accumulated in his heart was instantly swept away by these words, and Zhang Boxuan's eyes and brows brightened up a little.

Thinking that she was willing to pay attention to him, he could no longer sit still. He stood up suddenly and said excitedly, "I'll go find her."

Aunt Liu was startled by his sudden action. Seeing him about to step out, she quickly stopped him, "Hey, Master, Miss is...she has taken a bath and gone to bed now. Why don't you...look for her tomorrow?"

Just now she instigated the young lady to deliver the rice wine, but the young lady didn't come. It seems that she doesn't want to see Young Master Zhang tonight. If Young Master Zhang goes there now, things will probably get awkward again.

Zhang Boxuan stood there in a daze, looked at Liu Ma's hand blocking his way, and his mood instantly turned from sunny to cloudy.

He couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart.

She is still angry, how could she take the initiative to talk to him?

It is estimated that she was not the one who asked him to send the fermented glutinous rice wine. Wu Ma and Liu Ma lied to him and tricked him into eating it.

"I see."

He sat back down.

Seeing this, Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then you can eat slowly. I'll go out first."

Zhang Boxuan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."

After the people left, he stared at the bowl of fermented rice wine, his thoughts wandering.

-

I don’t know if it was the effect of that bowl of delicious fermented rice wine, but Zheng Zhihui felt that when she went to bed tonight, not only her body was warm, but her head was also warm.

She seemed to be in a deep sleep, but her consciousness seemed very active.

In a daze, she felt as if her head was immersed in water, and also as if she was in a dream.

In a dream——

She was sitting in a luxuriously decorated living room, happily eating a bowl of rice dumplings made with fermented glutinous rice. Suddenly, a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old rushed over, snatched the bowl from her hand, and glared at her fiercely:

"Humph, you got me scolded and put in solitary confinement for a whole night, and you still have the nerve to eat here?"

She stood up angrily, "Give it back to me."

"I won't give it to you. What's the matter? Go ahead and hit me."

She really chased after him and wanted to beat him.

The boy ran around the sofa with the bowl of fermented rice wine, avoiding her. "You want to eat it, right? Okay."

After he finished speaking, he spat into the bowl in front of her, then handed her the bowl from a distance, "Here, this is for you."

She was immediately furious when she saw him like this, and stomped her feet in anger and annoyance, "Zheng Shaoyuan! Why are you so disgusting?"

"I am disgusting, but it is better than you being heartless." The young man said angrily, "Zheng Zhihui, you are a heartless traitor."

"How am I a traitor? I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Still pretending? If you hadn't told dad last night that I went out to pick up girls, would I have been locked up by him for the whole night?"

The boy said angrily, "I even went out of my way to buy you chocolate last night. Ha! If I had known, I would have fed it to the dog instead of giving it to you."

"I didn't betray you. Dad did ask me, but I didn't tell him." She retorted loudly, "And it's not wrong for Dad to punish you. You're so young, but you don't learn your lesson. You deserve to be punished."

"Hey, you traitor, you dare to scold me, wait and see how I teach you a lesson today."

As the young man spoke, he raised the bowl of fermented rice wine and pretended to throw it at her.

Suddenly, the boy's appearance became mature, and the bowl of glutinous rice wine in his hand suddenly turned into a gun.

The gun was pointed at her.

"boom!"

With a gunshot, Zheng Zhihui felt her chest was instantly pierced.

"what--"

She screamed in fright and jumped up from the bed.

Then, countless clear memory images rushed into her brain, and her head felt like it was about to explode.

She curled up against the head of the bed, covering her head in pain, and was forced to accept the information that appeared in her mind.

After an unknown amount of time, her hands that were covering her head loosened tremblingly, revealing a face covered in tears.

She remembered.

She remembered everything that happened in the past, the causes and consequences.

It was Dad who did something wrong to the Zhang family.

He wanted to avenge his parents, so he sought justice from the Zheng family.

It was her brother who shot her...

……

Eight o'clock the next morning.

Zhang Boxuan stood at Zheng Zhihui's door again, knocked, and called her softly.

After waiting for a while and no one answered, he reached out and turned the doorknob, and found that the door was not locked. His eyes flashed, and the other party said, "Then I'll come in?"

There was no objection from inside, so he opened the door and walked in.

When he walked into the bedroom, he saw the person on the bed sitting against the headboard with his knees hugged, his face buried in his knees, with only his shiny black hair exposed.

Thinking that she was still angry and didn't want to pay attention to him, Zhang Boxuan sighed softly, walked to the bed and apologized sincerely, "I was wrong before. I shouldn't have delayed time when I knew you were anxious to recover your memory. I'm sorry."

Seeing that the person on the bed still had no intention of looking up to pay attention to him, he said, "I have already contacted the hypnotist. We will go find him after breakfast."

The person on the bed moved slightly but said nothing.

Zhang Boxuan knew that she was listening, but she just didn't want to pay attention to him.

"If you don't want to go downstairs for breakfast, I'll ask Aunt Liu to bring it up to you later."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to walk out.

"Zhang Boxuan."

Suddenly there was a shout from behind, Zhang Boxuan's heart trembled, and his feet suddenly froze in place.

As far as I can remember, this seemed to be the first time she called him by his full name.

I remember when they first met, she was still a little girl with a cute little pink face. When she looked up at him, her bright eyes were filled with smiles. The first thing she said to him was to call him "brother."

The soft and sticky voice is both delicate and cute.

Zhang Boxuan still remembers the words that softened his heart—"Brother."

But Zheng Shaoyuan, who was standing by at the time, was very angry and domineeringly forbade her to call anyone else "brother".

The little girl could only look at Zhang Boxuan apologetically and whispered to him, "My brother is unhappy. I can't call you brother anymore."

She then asked, "What's your name?"

Zhang Boxuan looked at that cute face and told her seriously, "My name is Zhang Boxuan."

"Oh~" The little girl's eyes, as bright as stars, turned around, and then she bent her eyes towards him, "Then I will call you Brother Xuan from now on."

After that, she always called him "Brother Xuan", even though he later became distant and rejected her, she never changed her name.

It was not until the Zheng family fell and she learned about what the Zheng family had done to the Zhang family that she simply changed to calling him "Mr. Zhang."

But now——

But she called him by his full name.

At this moment, Zhang Boxuan felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.

He turned stiffly and looked at her.
