When the sky darkened, Gu Shiyi had thought that Situ Yu would take her to see his explosive workshop, but she was told temporarily that she had something to take care of tonight. After everything was settled, she would bring her there, and before she left, she had repeatedly reminded Xiao Zhi to take good care of Gu Shiyi.
Without Situ Yu, this was also the first time Gu Shiyi and Gu Shiyi had been alone in this room since their reunion. Inside the room, Gu Shiyi was studying a medical book by herself under the light of a lamp.
Situ Yu had already walked for an hour, but the two of them had yet to speak a single word. Gu Shiyi was disdainful, but Xiao Zhi was afraid that the moment she opened her mouth, she would reveal the jealousy in her chest that was about to spew out when facing Gu Shiyi.
After Xiao Zhi calmed her emotions, and looked at Gu Shiyi's calm back, the hand hidden in her sleeve started to eagerly move forward. As long as this blade continued, all of her nightmares would come to an end.
"Xiao Zhi!"
Suddenly, Gu Shiyi held onto the book in her hands, and turned to look at Xiao Zhi behind her, her expression was extremely serious, and also because of Gu Shiyi's sudden words, she had interrupted Xiao Zhi's train of thoughts, causing her to put the item inside her sleeve back.
"Miss, do you want some tea? Xiao Zhi will go down immediately! "
Xiao Zhi's palms were already covered in sweat, just a little more and she would have succeeded.
"No need, let's talk."
When Gu Shiyi said this, she reached out and grabbed both of Xiao Zhi's hands that were hidden inside her sleeves.
"Hey, your palms are covered in sweat. Are you very hot?"
Gu Shiyi shouted out as if she had discovered a new continent. Although it was already spring, the night was still cold, was she feeling nervous or guilty?
"Yes, it's a little hot. Miss, why aren't you reading anymore?"
Xiao Zhi unconsciously retracted her hand. Perhaps it was because she was too disgusted with Gu Shiyi, causing her to reject Gu Shiyi even more than the feeling of holding onto the cactus.
"What's there to look at? I prefer to talk to you, Xiao Zhi!"
Gu Shiyi once again grabbed Xiao Zhi's hand and pulled her to sit beside him. The more Xiao Zhi disliked things, the more she wouldn't let her have it.
"Miss, what are you trying to say?"
Xiao Zhi lowered her head, wanting to retract her hands, but she was unable to do so due to the power of Gu Shiyi's hands. This feeling, caused her to feel uneasy.
"I remember, your mother was the embroidery lady of the embroidery workshop. What about your father?"
Gu Shiyi held onto Xiao Zhi's hands tightly from beginning to end, but his eyes still stared at her face. She did not miss the panic that flashed past his eyes when she heard the word 'father'.
"My father died before I was even born!"
Xiao Zhi lowered her head, wanting to use this to cover up the panic in her heart.
"He's dead, how did he die? Where is he from?"
Gu Shiyi saw Xiao Zhi's reaction completely. It seemed that this father was the key.
"Miss, don't ask anymore. The moment Xiao Zhi thought of this, he felt really uncomfortable in her heart."
After Xiao Zhi finished speaking, her tears also fell. But aside from tears, Gu Shiyi did not see any other sorrowful emotions.
"Alright, I won't ask about that anymore. I remember that you've been following me since you were very young. Although entering the Prime Minister's Estate was easy, how could you allow a little girl to enter?"
Gu Shiyi continued to ask. She had once neglected those details before, but when she thought back to it now, it was so unbearable to think about it.
"It was the tall man who brought Xiao Zhi into the residence because she felt sorry for him. Xiao Zhi, what's wrong with you tonight?
When Xiao Zhi talked about Gao Fei, she could not help but feel a sense of unease. She looked at Gu Shiyi with a sense of vigilance, as if the her tonight was completely different from the past.
You also know that although I have been with you for a long time, I know nothing about what happened before you entered the manor. That is all I can ask, and besides, we have been separated for three years, and I just want to resume our former relationship with you!
"Miss, did your memory recover?"
Xiao Zhi suddenly seemed to recall something, and looked at Gu Shiyi with a face of disbelief. The heavens were truly blind, to actually be able to let Gu Shiyi regain her memories, but it was no wonder, Gu Shiyi had wanted to re-establish a relationship with her. In the past, Gu Shiyi had become very reliant on her, but after thinking about it, Xiao Zhi felt that restoring her memories was a very good thing, why would she be able to do things without worry like before because of Gu Shiyi's trust and reliance on her.
"Yeah, after I fell off the cliff, my memories have been restored!"
Gu Shiyi did not try to hide it from her, and she was certain that Situ Yu had suspected that she had recovered her memories long ago. It was just that he did not confirm it through her own mouth, so it was no wonder Situ Yu told her so much.
"Miss, is it true, this is too good, you do not know, when you lost your memories, you were very cold and detested to me, Xiao Zhi did not know how sad she must have been!"
After saying that, Xiao Zhi once again started sobbing, and directly threw herself into Gu Shiyi's embrace. This time, it was Gu Shiyi's turn to be unaccustomed.
"In the past, it was my fault. In the future, we will still act like we're in the prime minister's residence!"
Gu Shiyi's voice was gentle, warm and carried a trace of enticement. At the same time, her hand gently caressed Xiao Zhi's back without touching him at all.
Only when he felt the person's crying slowly stop and her long breathing replacing it, did the corner of Gu Shiyi's mouth start to rise. He lightly placed the sleeping Xiao Zhi, who was in her embrace, onto the low collapse, and took out a fingernail-sized white medicinal pill from his pocket, then threw it whole into the candle.
Only then did Gu Shiyi stop worrying and change into a black night attire. After locking the door, she followed the male spider towards the center of the city, following the signal left by the mother spider that she had placed on Situ Yu early in the morning.
Gu Shiyi followed the male spider all the way until they reached their point of view. During the daytime, they stopped in front of the tallest door.
Immediately after, the male spider crawled towards the backyard of the restaurant, Gu Shiyi followed closely behind and saw that the male spider had suddenly disappeared into the pile of firewood.
Gu Shiyi looked at the small hill of firewood. She guessed that there must be some kind of secret mechanism at that place, but if it were to charge at such a speed, the fallen firewood would also attract the attention of others.
Just as Gu Shiyi was hesitating, a warm big hand suddenly covered her mouth from behind.
