Reason told her that all his actions stemmed from the fact that he had forgotten, that he had forgotten them. They used to be the closest of bedfellows, and yet now he treated her as a stranger. Not only that, but because of the incident with Lao Si, he saw her as licentious. But emotionally, she found it truly hard to accept. He didn’t even hesitate, leaving so resolutely? He didn’t just forget about her, about Lao Si—he forgot everything, remembered nothing at all. The only thing left was his true nature, an unbridled true nature!! Her eyes reddened, Dong Huiying’s mind was in turmoil. At that moment, Zhan Hanyun suddenly said, "Don’t worry, I will handle the search for him. In addition, I will send a message to Yun Ge, asking them to help you search as well. However, you mentioned you needed to go to The Outside before, right? I think it’s best you set off as soon as possible!" Her eyes red, she looked towards Zhan Hanyun, who sighed, "I’ve exchanged letters with Yun Ge, and I know that after you departed from the Capital, you learned The Arts of Witch Gu by yourself. The reason he has become , I believe, is largely due to the Mind-Bewitching Gu. In The Outside, there is someone, whose appearance, age, and even gender are unknown, but I know this person is well-versed in The Arts of Witch Gu, simply known by the name Witch, and has been living in seclusion in the Desert for years." She clenched her fist tightly, "Zhi Chen... I’ll leave him to you. I will find the Witch as soon as possible!" "Rest assured, go ahead," Zhan Hanyun patted her on the shoulder, but couldn’t resist teasing her, "Marshal Baowei wouldn’t shed tears, don’t be all weepy, it doesn’t suit you." She forced a smile, "Did I cry? No, I didn’t cry!" It was anger, she was angry!! Liang Zhichen, you wait for me. It seems that a washboard alone is too lenient for you, huh! Flicking her long hair, she turned to enter Lao Si’s room, only to see Lao Si leaning against the wall, attempting to walk out. Lao Si pressed his lips together, "Desert!" His words were brief, but after looking into each other’s eyes, they understood each other’s meaning. Is this what brotherhood is? Despite being gravely injured by his older brother, being beaten so miserably, was he still filled with concern, worried, insisting on going to the Desert as soon as possible to find the Witch and seek a cure, even with his own body still wounded? Lao Si’s body was injured and needed two more days of recuperation. During these two days, Dong Huiying did everything she could. Although Lao Si didn’t fully recover, he was more than capable of handling the journey. Zhan Hanyun had sent word to Hong Xiangjun, so two days later, the three of them set out on a new leg of their journey. Meanwhile, Zhan Hanyun had already sent a letter, urging the messenger to ride swiftly to Qingfeng Prefecture. "Don’t worry. Think about it, your Zhi Chen is no ordinary man. With his wisdom, he can achieve things no matter where he is. Even if he has forgotten the past, I actually think that without those past constraints, having shed many of his earlier reservations, he will only become more ruthless. It will be difficult for others to bully him even if they wanted to," said Hong Xiangjun, who knew a thing or two about the situation. While driving the carriage, she looked back at Dong Huiying, who was tending to Lao Si, to comfort her as she could tell that Dong Huiying was distraught. But Dong Huiying wasn’t so optimistic. "You don’t understand." She shook her head. Although she hadn’t had it confirmed by Zhi Chen himself, she had her own suspicions. Zhi Chen was extremely talented, and yet his family had lived in such poverty. There had to be a reason for this.
