While Ming Yuexuan was greatly shocked by Li Xiyu's words on one side, on the other side, Song Yunsheng was also taken aback.
He went to visit the Li family. Since the Li family returned from the capital, Song Yunsheng had visited several times, but he never saw Li Xichi each time. Sending messages to Li Xichi also got no response. His intuition told Song Yunsheng that the Li family was hiding something from him.
So, this time he didn't give any prior notice. He just came unannounced. Finally, he saw Li Xichi in the Li family's living room.
Li Xichi, whose soul was now Zhong Yuxiu, was shocked to see him and blurted out, "Zhou Donglin?"
If he hadn't realized it when Li Xiyu called him "Lord Donglin" before, this time he almost instinctively understood.
Did Li Xichi recognize him?
No, to be exact, did Li Xichi have memories of the ancient times?
Just as Song Yunsheng was puzzled, Jiang Yongfeng came over with tea and quickly apologized.
"Sorry, Yunsheng. I don't know what's wrong with Xichi. Since the car accident last time, her mind has been a bit unclear. Don't take it to heart."
Song Yunsheng came suddenly today, and there was only Jiang Yongfeng at home. She could only accompany him with a smiling face while quickly driving Zhong Yuxiu towards the room.
As the imperial concubine, Zhong Yuxiu would never listen to Jiang Yongfeng's orders. Instead of leaving, she looked at Song Yunsheng in confusion and asked,
"Zhou Donglin, why are you here too?"
"Okay, okay, Xichi, stop talking. You've mistaken him for someone else." Jiang Yongfeng quickly smoothed things over. She was extremely panicked inside. She quickly pulled Zhong Yuxiu aside, trying to drag her into the room.
"Presumptuous!" Zhong Yuxiu shook off Jiang Yongfeng's hand.
What was wrong with this woman? How dare she be rough with her!
If Song Yunsheng still couldn't see the clues, he would be a fool. He said to Jiang Yongfeng, "Aunt Jiang, can I have a private chat with Xichi?"
Hearing this, cold sweat broke out on Jiang Yongfeng's forehead.
Chat? She was afraid that this son - in - law would be lost after the chat.
"Yunsheng, Xichi is just occasionally muddled. Don't take it to heart."
Song Yunsheng thought for a while and showed a very kind smile.
"Aunt Jiang, what are you saying? Xichi and I are going to be husband and wife. No matter what she becomes, I have the obligation and responsibility to take care of her."
Although Song Yunsheng had been very close to Li Xichi before, and both the things that should and shouldn't have happened had occurred, he had never given the Li family a definite answer.
Now that he said so, it was almost an admission that Li Xichi was his fiancée. Jiang Yongfeng felt like it was really a windfall. She thought that Song Yunsheng would dislike Li Xichi after she became crazy.
It was said that a mother - in - law would like her son - in - law more and more. Now Jiang Yongfeng was in such a state. She kept saying good things.
At this time, Song Yunsheng straightened his face and said, "But Aunt Jiang, I regard Xichi as my fiancée, but it seems that neither you nor Xichi regard me as a family member. It is said that family members should be honest and share weal and woe. I've visited your mansion several times, not to mention that I didn't even see Xichi's face. Now that I've finally seen her, you still want her to go back to her room." Song Yunsheng pretended to be slightly angry and stood up.
"It seems that Aunt Jiang is not satisfied with Xichi and me being together. I'm not the kind of person who makes trouble out of nothing. Since Aunt Jiang doesn't take a fancy to me as a son - in - law, I won't bother you anymore."
Saying that, he was about to walk out.
As soon as he took a step, Jiang Yongfeng appeared in front of him with a smiling face.
"Yunsheng, look at what you're saying. Aunt Jiang and your Uncle Li have always liked you the most. You know that."
Jiang Yongfeng was a smart woman. She knew that Song Yunsheng's actions carried a bit of a threat.
But she really didn't dare to confront Song Yunsheng head - on. If the situation really got out of hand, her daughter and Song Yunsheng would really have no hope at all.
Jiang Yongfeng gritted her teeth.
Forget it. It was impossible to hide this matter. When Li Xiyu lost her memory before, the relationship between Song Jiashe and Li Xiyu had not regressed but advanced instead.
Let's give it a try.
She bowed slightly and said, "Yunsheng, Xichi, you can chat slowly. Aunt Jiang will go and prepare lunch for you."
Seeing that Jiang Yongfeng had given in, Song Yunsheng cupped his hands and said, "Then I'll trouble Aunt Jiang."
Jiang Yongfeng smiled and retreated. Finally, Song Yunsheng had a chance to be alone with Li Xichi.
He seemed like the master of the house. He made a gesture of invitation to Zhong Yuxiu, asking Li Xichi to sit on the sofa so that they could chat.
Seeing that Li Xichi seemed to have no impression of him, Song Yunsheng didn't explain his relationship with Li Xichi. He asked, "Do you recognize me?"
"Of course I do. You're Zhou Donglin, the son of Prime Minister Zhou. But... you seem much younger."
When Zhong Yuxiu jumped off the building, she was already middle - aged. So in her impression, her peers should all be middle - aged and old. Now, although Zhou Donglin looked older than the hasty glance she had of him under the Star - Picking Tower, he was definitely not an old man.
"Are you Li Xiyu?"
Song Yunsheng asked tentatively.
Before, he thought that Li Xichi was the reincarnation of Li Xiyu. Although he didn't have much hope that Li Xichi had memories of her previous life. However, during the process of getting along with Li Xichi, he had also couldn't help but tentatively ask her the same question. But at that time, Li Xichi was very unfamiliar with the name Li Xiyu.
This time, although Li Xichi didn't admit it either, her eyes were very obvious - she was not unfamiliar with this name.
"You haven't answered me yet. Are you Zhou Donglin?"
Zhong Yuxiu wasn't stupid. Song Yunsheng's obvious tentative tone made her very unhappy.
Song Yunsheng thought for a while and nodded. "Yes."
"Did you also time - travel?"
"Time - travel?" Song Yunsheng didn't watch much TV, so he was a bit unfamiliar with this term. But now in order to get information from Zhong Yuxiu's mouth, he still nodded. "Yes."
"It shouldn't be. Weren't you guarding the mausoleum?" Zhong Yuxiu hadn't yet figured out the rules of time - travel, but she knew that when she died, Zhou Donglin must not have died yet. According to the order of coming first, it should have been her who time - traveled first. But looking at Zhou Donglin's current appearance, it seemed that he had time - traveled many years earlier than her.
Hearing this, a cold light flashed in Song Yunsheng's eyes.
"What did you say?"
Zhong Yuxiu refused to chatter anymore.
"Nothing."
Although Song Yunsheng didn't hear clearly, he still heard the words "guarding the mausoleum".
Almost at the same time he realized this, he also realized one thing - this wasn't Li Xiyu.
Li Xiyu couldn't have known that Zhou Donglin was guarding the mausoleum for her.
Zhong Yuxiu also felt that the atmosphere was a bit tense. She subconsciously stroked the hair on her chest.
Just this one action made Song Yunsheng understand.
