CHAPTER 1061: 1138: NOT MY BROTHER, BUT BETTER THAN MY BROTHER

Yi Ran was dumbfounded for a moment. Then, he was all over the place.

"Jade, Jade, Jade, Jade, Jade... Is this, this, this, this person your big brother?"

Shu Yu frowned but did not change her sarcastic nature. "He’s my brother, not yours, why are you getting so excited?"

Yi Ran’s eyes widened: "But, but... he’s not my brother, he’s greater than my brother!? He saved my life!!"

Afterward, Yi Ran suddenly dashed toward Liang Zhichen, "Benefactor, I am Yi Ran, the Yi Ran you saved back then!! I’m back, I came back from the Golden Triangle! Oh my, what luck I have! When I received news last year that Ji Liuli sealed the city for a man, I guessed in my heart that you, my Benefactor, might be here, so I rushed over. But I searched everywhere for news of you and didn’t find any. The world is truly small! After circling around, I unexpectedly encountered you here with Jade!!"

With his chatterbox activated, Yi Ran babbled for ages, then suddenly turned to look at Shuyu, but his eyes carried some grievance and protest: "Jade, why are you so bad? Why didn’t you tell me earlier? My Benefactor is your big brother? If you had told me earlier, I would have taken you to meet Elder Sun, that treacherous old scoundrel!!"

Dong Huiying: "..."

Liang Shuyu: "..."

Liang Zhichen: "..."

Alright, it seems it’s Yi Ran’s performance time. His mouth was like a machine gun, rattling on with no room for anyone else to speak.

***

After a long while, Yi Ran’s lips were nearly dry, and he finally closed his chatterbox. He looked at Liang Zhichen nervously, feeling guilty: "Benefactor... about those things back then, I... I... I’m sorry for causing you so much trouble, it’s my fault!"

Zhi Chen pondered slightly, "You mean, the reason the Seventh Princess targeted me back then was because of you?"

Yi Ran was taken aback.

Zhi Chen, weakly leaning in his wife’s arms, Shu Yu lifted her lips: "My brother has memory issues, he forgot everything from the past, only recently recalling some of it."

"Huh?"

Yi Ran hiccupped, maybe from being too shocked.

Shu Yu coolly said: "Speaking of which, if the Seventh Princess targeted my brother because of you, then the source of my brother’s amnesia also lies with you."

Yi Ran was dumbfounded.

Shu Yu continued: "Tonight when you mentioned the Mind-Bewitching Gu, the knowledge of how to break the Mind-Bewitching Gu and the improved formula for the Mind-bewitching Powder are due to about two years ago, when my brother was ambushed by the Seventh Princess’s people in the Golden Triangle. He was afflicted with the Child Gu of the Mind-Bewitching Gu, and at the time, to remove it, he took a risk by fighting poison with poison. But because of the poison, it mutated within his body, causing him to lose his past memories."

Yi Ran opened his mouth but then was flustered, looking as if he didn’t know what to do.

Shu Yu suddenly smiled, and he smiled beautifully. "Yi Ran?"

Yi Ran shivered, "Uh, huh? I’m here!!"

Shu Yu slowly walked towards him, and when he stood still in front of him, his body leaned slightly forward, approaching Yi Ran, scaring Yi Ran into leaning back.

His eyes were like the cold moonlight at night, yet emitting sharp, indifferent cold radiance.

But at the corner of his lips, there was a gentle, pleasant yet somewhat pathological and sarcastic smile.

"You really are—quite a troublemaker, aren’t you?"

Yi Ran: "!!!"
