At first, he thought he had no chance with a girl of such grace. Nobody knew that one day she would sustain heavy wounds after somebody had plotted against her. It was he who took her in and nursed her injuries.
She wanted to leave even before her wounds had healed.
He was afraid, afraid that he could never see her again.
He was afraid that once she left, it would be forever…
Therefore, before her wounds healed, he took matters into his own hands and erased all her memories.
Unfortunately, she was strong-willed and stubborn. Even though she had lost all her memory, she tried to recall them, which made her… mad!
Tang Luo felt very guilty, but he knew that if he were to start all over again, he would still do the same!
“Yan’er, in this life, I am all you need. You don’t have to think of the past. I will stay with you forever. No one in this world loves you more than I do… If you have lost your child, then take Yu’er as your daughter! Although she has made a mistake today, usually… she has always respected you…”
It did not matter if she had lost her memory, it did not matter if she had gone crazy.
All that mattered was that she remained by his side.

In the pleasure boat.
Jiu Ming leaned lazily on the couch.
In front of the couch, a songstress was playing the lute. Her voice was sweet like an oriole’s, permeating the ears.
As he gazed upon the songstress’s countenance, Jiu Ming somehow remembered the mountain-like fat silhouette a few months back.
‘That unscrupulous girl has gone to the first floor and didn’t even come to see me!’
She was really heartless. He shared his future income from the first floor with her, and she would not even meet him once.
“Young Master.”
Just then, a guard dressed in black came in from the door. He glanced at the songstress and dancers, and said in a deep voice, “Sir, I have something to report.”
Jiu Ming nonchalantly waved his hand. The corner of his lips turned upward, giving out a titillating smile.
“Leave.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
As the voice fell, the songstress and dancers took their leaves.
The room felt empty. Only a guard remained half-kneeling by the couch.
“What is the matter?”
The guard dutifully reported, “Young Master, we have found something. It appears that Empress Nalan… is still alive…”
The Empress was alive?
Jiu Ming immediately got up and straightened his posture. He had a mask on his face. Although the expressions beneath his mask could not be seen clearly, his sinister eyes felt heavy.
“You said that Empress Nalan is alive? Is this true?”
“Young Master, a few days ago, our undercover agents had been in contact with people from the Fengyun family. It appears that the leader of the Fengyun family is related to the Empress. However, the leader’s name is not Nalan Yan but Rong Yan.”
The Fengyun family had always been a mystery. No one knew what the name of the leader was, nor had anyone ever seen her face. They were a force that had come out play out of nowhere and had piqued the interest of many.
Jiu Ming too once sent people to investigate this mysterious Fengyun family a few years ago. Who would have known…
That Empress Nalan was also involved in this?
Jiu Yi closed his eyes. His slender fingers gently tapped on the table, and suddenly, he laughed. “If Empress Nalan is still alive, and the Emperor has no knowledge of this, that means… her death was planned by the Empress herself!”
If Empress Nalan was kidnapped, why bother letting the whole world think that she was dead? Moreover, Feng Tianyu was not that foolish. He would have discovered it by now if the matter was planned by someone.
