Crossing the Sauvignon Blanc

Chapter 215 Xiaoyao's Selective Amnesia

"Xiao Yao!"

From afar, he saw Xiaoyao standing in the sunshine, hands behind her back, kicking stones at the bottom of the steps out of boredom. Hearing his call, she smiled happily and waved playfully, like a long-lost relative reuniting. Yet, Xuanxuan felt a sense of distance.

"Xiaoyao, are you okay?"

Xiao Yao opened her arms, turned around on the spot, and then replied with a smile: "Everything is fine. So, after I returned to Haoling, I heard that my brother's Daming Palace was about to be completed, so I came here immediately."

"Xiaoyao, what did you call me?"

"Brother! You look so strange, are you so happy that you're stupid?"

"Nothing, nothing. Have you eaten yet? Xiaoxiao, have someone prepare some of Xiaoyao's favorite food. Xiaoyao and I will be there soon."

"Okay, Your Highness."

After giving his instructions, Xuan wanted to turn around and take Xiaoyao's hand to leave, but halfway through, he slowly pulled it back, remembering that Xiaoyao didn't like being touched by others, except Xiangliu...

Xiaoyao kept looking at him with a smile, her eyes curved. It was as if her previous dislike for him was just a nightmare, or was it just a sweet dream now? He had never seen Xiaoyao smile so happily at him.

"Brother, am I ugly? Why do you keep looking at me?"

"No, Xiaoyao has become more beautiful. It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time and I want to see more of you."

The two of them walked towards the inner hall, talking and laughing, while Xinyue stood not far away and watched silently. Xuanxuan didn't even see her! At this moment, she understood why she wanted to kill her in her previous life! As long as Xiaoyao was around, Xuanxuan's eyes would never tolerate anyone else!

The two of them came to the stone table in front of the palace where Xiaoyao used to live and sat down. Xiaoyao looked around curiously.

"Brother, have I lived here before?"

"Yes, but you didn't live there for long. You moved to Chenyi City."

Xiaoyao asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Did I go there alone?"

"Xiaoyao, don't you remember? You and Fangfengbei moved there together."

"Who is Fang Fengbei?"

Xiaoyao frowned and looked at Xuanxuan in confusion, and her puzzled look did not seem fake.

"Sister! I just left for a while. Why did you come here? I'm so tired. Brother Xuanxuan, I knew she came to see you."

Just as Xuan was about to think about how to answer, he heard Wuyou running towards him breathlessly. Wuyou ran over, probably really tired from running. He covered the side of his stomach with one hand and gasped for breath. Seeing the tea on the table, he picked up the cup and started to drink it.

"Wuyou, slow down, I'm not a child, how can I get lost?"

"You are not a child, but you..."

Xiaoyao tilted her head and looked at Wuyou in confusion, but what?

Wuyou's words were about to come out, but suddenly they stopped. She opened her mouth, her eyes rolling back and forth.

"Sister, I haven't seen Brother Xuan for a long time. I have something to tell Brother Xuan in private, please don't eavesdrop!"

Wuyou said this and took Xuanxuan's arm and walked away, leaving Xiaoyao shaking her head and laughing, staring blankly at one place.

After Wuyou and Xuanxuan walked away, Xuanxuan saw Wuyou always looking back at Xiaoyao, and he really didn't understand what they were talking about.

"Wuyou, tell me honestly, what happened to Xiaoyao? Why does she seem to not even remember Fangfengbei?"

"Brother Xuan, Sister Xiaoyao witnessed Xiangliu, Sister Yan, and Young Master Guifang die protecting her. She couldn't accept it for a moment and has selective amnesia. Sister has been sleeping for so many years, not because of the severity of her injuries, but because she didn't want to wake up. Now, she doesn't remember anything about Xiangliu, Fangfeng Bei, and Sister Yan. She only remembers us who are still alive. You, don't let it slip. Brother Xuan, Sister has suffered too much. Please don't do anything to hurt her again. She really can't bear it..."

The sadness in Wuyou's eyes was genuine. She knew Xiaoyao had no intention of lying to Xixuan. This was the last time. Everyone knew Xixuan was training, and they all knew what was about to happen. If Xixuan revealed Xiaoyao's life story to attack Haoling, then even the last vestiges of family affection would be gone. From then on, it would be a life-or-death struggle. She was worry-free and fearless!

She is also reminding Xuanxuan that when you choose to do something that may hurt you, please think about the consequences...

Regardless of whether Xuan still believes in Xiaoyao or not, sometimes, even if he doesn't believe, he will cooperate with you in acting, as long as it benefits him...

"I see."

A gleam of brilliance flashed across Xuanxuan's drooping eyelids, the corners of his mouth curled up beautifully, and his steps as he walked back were a little lighter.

Wuyou was behind, glancing at the corner of the corridor unintentionally, a wicked smile flashing across his face in an instant.

At the dinner table, Xiaoyao kept serving food to Xiaoyao, who happily ate. Xiaoyao's heart leaped with joy. Regardless of whether it was true or not, Xiaoyao no longer rejected him so much. This was how they should be...

Xuan completely forgot what he had said to Xinyue, and spent the entire afternoon rearranging Xiaoyao's bedroom, busying in and out, enjoying it very much.

At Chenrong Mansion, Xinyue angrily smashed all the tea sets and vases. The maids beside her knelt on the ground in fear, their bodies trembling, hoping that the young lady would not vent her anger on them.

"Miss, Miss, please don't smash it. The master will punish you if he finds out."

Only Xinyue's personal maid had the courage to step forward to comfort and remind her, but in return, Chen Rong Xinyue slapped her mercilessly. The maid fell to the ground with blood oozing from the corner of her mouth, and her palms were pierced by the debris on the ground, leaving several bloody marks, and she screamed in pain.

"Xinyue, what are you doing!"

Chishui Fenglong heard the sounds of smashing and bashing from a distance. He walked over quickly and saw Xinyue beating the maid. She was about to become the queen, how could she still be so vulgar! He gestured for the maids to leave first.

When she saw Feng Long, she seemed to have seen the last straw of life. She ignored the debris on the ground, walked forward in a panic, grabbed Feng Long's hand, with a madness in her eyes that wanted to destroy everything!

"Brother, Xiaoyao is back, she is back."

"I'm back, so I'm back. I've been asleep for so long, it's time to come back. Coincidentally, Daming Palace..."

Before Fenglong could finish, he was interrupted by Xinyue. She went from being angry to becoming more and more frightened the more she thought about it. She knew that Xiaoyao was putting on an act, so how could she still believe what Wuyou said to Xuanxuan?

"Brother, you don't understand. She must have come back to take revenge on me. Brother, you must help me. She did it on purpose. The amnesia was all a lie. She just wanted to take everything from me. Even after Xuanxuan proposed to me, she showed up. Xuanxuan only has her in his heart and eyes!"

"Xinyue, what's wrong with you? Xiaoyao is Xixuan's sister. She came back injured. Isn't it normal for Xixuan to care about her? They have had a good relationship since they were young."

"Brother, Merlin, I also participated, but I regretted and quit halfway..."

"You're crazy, Xinyue! Who else knows about this? Xiaoyao knows, right? You said she came back to take revenge on you because of this? Since you weren't involved, we can just ask her for forgiveness. Brother will ask for you..."

Feng Long turned to leave, but Xinyue held him back. It was as if all his strength had drained out of him, and he looked lifeless. She slowly recounted what Tu Shanjing had said to her.
