Heitang, who was left at home alone, slumped on the ground out of boredom. Suddenly, one of its fluffy ears sprang up. Heitang’s whimpering accompanied its agile legs as he rushed to the entrance.

The door opened a moment later. Heitang grabbed the trousers of the person who entered, scratching as if he was grinding his claws. Jiang Yunshu felt powerless as he accepted that his pants would get ripped.

Fortunately, Bai Tang arrived just in time. The little German Shepherd turned around and rushed to the sweet and loving omega, abandoning the stiff alpha. 

Heitang grew a lot. Its fur became unkempt and it seemed much more chubbier and larger than before. Lately, only one of its ears had begun to rise up. One stood up tremblingly, while the other drooped lifelessly, which made Heitang look extremely comical.

Bai Tang felt better as soon as he saw the dog. He knelt, took Heitang into his arms and caressed it.

Jiang Yunshu took out the result from his study and passed it to Bai Tang. He had no memory of the original owner, so he breezed through the psychological test.

Bai Tang struggled to grasp what he was reading, but he recognized the doctor’s scribbled words “permanent amnesia.” In addition, the Imperial Capital Hospital’s official seal was present. Bai Tang’s heart, which had been restless for more than two months, finally descended and his feet firmly landed on the ground.

Though he had no idea why the alpha would act OOC so many times or when the alpha would revert to being a lowlife, they were none of his concerns. He merely needed to use this time to pursue his own interests as much as possible in order to ensure his and Heitang’s safety.

“Domestic violence is a purposeful assault. It’s wrong and really disgusting. I’m really sorry.” Jiang Yunshu stood upright and earnestly said, “I won’t hurt you again, be it now or in the future. You can rest assured and do anything you want.”

Bai Tang sat motionlessly for a while before replying, “Then I want to continue my studies.”

Jiang Yunshu was surprised for a second before swiftly responding, “Sure, when? Do you plan to retake the college admissions exam? Which do you prefer,home study or at school?” 

Bai Tang’s jaw, which was clenched tightly the whole time, suddenly relaxed, and the embedded fingernails on his hands began to unclasp. But soon, he sank into a state of bewilderment. Agreed? He  agreed just like that?

Undoubtedly, before Jiang Yunsu had revealed his true nature, the two had long been in a confrontation over the issue of studying. Negotiations, quarrels, and even cold wars had failed to make Jiang Yunsu back down.

After the alpha lost his memory, he became really strange… Bai Tang blinked slowly, habitually wondering about whether the alpha was lying.

Don’t be fooled by Jiang Yunshu’s expressionless face at this very moment. Who would imagine that he was actually quite excited, like an old father who was looking forward to his reluctant son finally taking the initiative to learn. Tears almost welled up in his eyes. 

Bai Tang decided to sound him out one more time, “I want to go to Fengqi to study again for a year…”

“Mfcudl?” Aljcu Tecrte jugffv. “Yxjs. Gb sbe kjca ab ub ab Mfcudl’r Gfjc’r Yoolmf abwbggbk ab lcdelgf jybea atf jvwlrrlbc?” Lf atbeuta bnfg la.

“Yo mbegrf.” Aljcu Tecrte gfqilfv jr tf aegcfv gbecv jcv gewwjufv atgbeut  atf gfoglufgjabg. “Vb mjc sbe fja wfja cbk?” 

Bai Tang’s heart  harboured suspicion and confusion. Facing such an unfamiliar alpha, he was really at a loss, and his mind was in such a disarray  that he hesitated for a while before nodding his head. “…Yes.”

Jiang Yunshu also nodded to express that he understood. He picked out a few ingredients out of the bags to place in the kitchen.

Bai Tang didn’t make a sound and just stood in the distance, silently observing the alpha’s movements. From washing the rice to cutting the meat, he was really skilled in using the kitchen utensils, and the way he seasoned the meat when marinating meat was well-practised. He couldn’t help but recall his memories of Jiang Yunsu. Did Jiang Yunsu know how to cook like this before? It seems like… he didn’t know at all? Did he?

He couldn’t remember. It had been a very long time since the alpha last cooked. 

Bai Tang kept still. He silently pulled out his phone, sat cross-legged on the couch and began playing. In a place where no one could see, his hands were nervously gripping the hem of his jacket.

Jiang Yunshu happened to turn around and saw this picture. But, unlike other parents, he did not begin by criticising the child for playing with his phone; instead, the corners of his lips raised into an arc, and he felt extremely relieved inwardly that Bai Tang eventually started playing with his phone.

He finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. 

Sure enough, making use of Lin Baizhou was the best step he had taken since he came to this world. 

The hem of the jacket wrinkled. Bai Tang was sure that the alpha saw him, but he didn’t say anything…? Yes, his focus wasn’t on his phone at all. More than ten minutes had passed but the page displayed on the screen remained the same. From the very start, all his attention was focused on the bustling figure in the kitchen.

What exactly Jiang Yunsu was thinking, Bai Tang couldn’t guess nor could he understand. Why did he feel that ever since the alpha had lost his memory, he was like a new person?

“Come and eat.” Jiang Yunshu brought the food out. Although Bai Tang was finally willing to eat meat, his stomach, which had not digested meat for a long time, might not be able to accept it all at once. So he minced all the meat and made steamed pork patties with mushrooms, made lean meat soup, added bean sprouts in broth and sautéed peppers.

Bai Tang suppressed his frantic doubts and deliberately didn’t respond nor help. He just sat on the sofa doing nothing, idly swiping at the screen. 

Jiang Yunshu happily completed everything by himself.

He still didn’t scold him? Bai Tang was completely dumbfounded. Is the alpha’s brain broken?

“Come over and  eat before it gets cold.” Jiang Yunshu even put Bai Tang’s dishes and chopsticks in order and spoke to him nicely.

Bai Tang forcibly recovered his composure. When he rose up, he saw that a layer of cold sweat had soaked his back. His calf was a little soft, and he had a lot of reddish nail scars on his hands that pierced in deep. He drew a long, heavy breath. He was unable to comprehend his emotions, but he instinctively knew that he was afraid and was suspicious of the alpha’s intentions. He eventually sat directly opposite to Jiang Yunshu. 

“Try it,” Jiang Yunshu suggested. “Is it too bland? Or did I add too much salt?”

Sitting so close, Bai Tang didn’t dare test the alpha’s bottom line again. He hadn’t forgotten the sinking fear that had stamped itself on both his body and mind. He cast a slight peek at Jiang Yunshu’s face and cautiously took a meat pie, then immediately withdrew his hand .

His hands were trembling somewhat. Bai Tang used all his strength to keep it steady and said with difficulty, “I…eat this?”

“Mhm.” Jiang Yunshu hummed in agreement. “See if it suits your taste.” 

Bai Tang hesitantly put the meat into his mouth and chewed it. D-Delicious…! It had been three years. He had almost forgotten what meat tasted like.

Jiang Yunshu watched Bai Tang’s expression and finally felt relieved. “Eat a lot, you’re too thin. You need to take good care of yourself.”

After the meal, Jiang Yunshu went back to his study and habitually did his exam papers. Two and a half hours had passed since he finished a set of previous years’ exam questions. He stood up and walked out of the room, rotated his aching neck, and planned to take  a stroll on the second floor’s balcony.

He only walked a few steps when he saw Bai Tang suddenly rushing out of his room with his hands covering his mouth. He bumped into Jiang Yunshu head-on. 

With just a glimpse, Jiang Yunshu noticed Bai Tang’s paleness between his fingers which was completely different from his slight rosy complexion before. His brows instantly wrinkled. “What’s wrong?”

Bai Tang was about to shake his head, but vomit suddenly surged up his throat. He stumbled into the toilet, knelt on the ground and retched.

Jiang Yunshu panicked for a moment, but then he immediately calmed down. He went to the kitchen to pour Bai Tang a glass of water  and walked back to the bathroom, only to find that Bai Tang already had nothing to vomit, but instead had been retching acidic water.

This shouldn’t be the case. Bai Tang had something to eat for dinner. Him vomiting nothing meant that this was not the first time he vomited. He pressed the button for flushing the toilet, handed the water to Bai Tang, and said, “Rinse your mouth.” 

Blood rushed to Bai Tang’s face. Tears seeped out, and a bead of sweat slid down his chin. He took the glass in discomfort, brought it to his lips and rinsed his mouth.

Jiang Yunshu was about to speak, but Bai Tang suddenly turned around, held the toilet, and had another round of retching.

Jiang Yunshu poured another glass of water and asked seriously, “Bai Tang, be honest. How many times have you vomited?”

Bai Tang’s pale face was red from the lack of oxygen. He took a deep breath and whimpered, “9, 9 times…” 

“Acute gastroenteritis.” Jiang Yunshu immediately came to a conclusion. He picked up a coat from the sofa. “Let’s go to the hospital. Rinse your mouth clean, otherwise you’ll be more prone to vomiting.”

So someone raised the concern of pdfs being illegally sold which made me apprehensive if I should publicly share the pdf (or if I should release a pdf at all). Also, I’ve decided to lock the chapters starting from 42 which is the start of the VIP chapters due to the aggregator sites stealing my translation. I hope you guys understand. Thank you! ^^
