In her room, ShuangAi examines TanTan’s back wound. The wound seems has healed but leaving a mark.
’What a pity to have such mark on woman’s body...’ ShuangAi sincerely feels bad for TanTan,
The examination has finished and while TanTan puts on her clothes, ShuangAi asks in worry,
"Just now you are talking about your killers? Are you really looking for them, MuTan Jie?"
TanTan is silent, she is thinking before can giving ShuangAi proper answer. She looks to ShuangAi. She knows the risk, but TanTan feels she can trust ShuangAi, so she decides to give an honest answer,
"I...just want to find so information about my enemy...enemies perhaps... I want to know why did they want to kill ...maybe HuaMuTan...ehm I...really did a terrible wrong in the past? I need to know for sure so I can..."
She pauses, as she continues the words in her mind, ’...fix it sohow and return to the future?!’ She sighs.
ShuangAi feels confused,
"What can you do after you find them, MuTan Jie? Isn’t better if you leave this problem to Li Ge..so he can punish them for you..."
TanTan smirks sadly hearing it and she says again in sarcastic,
"Maybe not if he is involved..."
ShuangAi widens her eyes,
"Oh, no...MuTan Jie...you don’t think Li Ge was the one who wants to kill you.l, do you?. He was almost killed to save you, rember? Besides what reason he would kill you for?"
TanTan still looking at ShuangAi and raises her eyebrows,
’The reason might be for you, silly girl! But ShuangAi is right! He did help , so I also doubt that he is involved, but still, I don’t want to ask his help...’
"You really change, MuTan Jie...if in the past, you would not hesitate to force Li Ge to help you..."
TanTan grins a little bit, ’Jeez...its HuaMuTan who didn’t hesitate...not ..." Then TanTan realizes she is also didn’t have a chance to ask ShuangAi. She knows ShuangAi has a wide knowledge about dicine so she might know so similar case like her?
"ShuangAi, I know that you have knowledge about dicine and other things like that...so can I ask you sothing?"
"Sure, what is it?"
"Is there any case like before? I an, soone who has a lot of changes after losing mories?" TanTan hopes that she might not the only one who pulled into this ancient ti.
ShuangAi takes a while to think, but at the end, she shakes her head,
"No...losing mory case is rare. In fact, you are my first patient of losing mory..." ShuangAi thought that TanTan asking about it because she wants to know a possibility to gains her mory back so she calms her, "but don’t worry, I and my father are still trying to learn more about your case..."
’I am not worried at all about it’ TanTan just can answer it in her mind. As she finishes to clean her up,
"Thanks, ShuangAii...for coming to check up on ..."
"It’s my duty...Please don’t forget to drink your dicine as well and tell if any changes you fell afterward...the dicine is good to boost your health and hopefully helps you gain your mory back... by the way, have you rember anything yet?"
Rembering what she sees in HuaMuTan’s mory makes TanTan can’t hold to ask,
"ShuangAii, do you really want to rember all I’ve done to you and others?"
ShuangAi startled, well, as everyone had said, the current HuaMuTan is much better than the old one. She must agree to it, but sohow ShuangAi still want HuaMuTan to rember,
"No...honestly I prefer you for not rembering all bad mories, but still I need you to rember, MuTan Jie...coz..."
The words of ShuangAi is stopped when they hear knocking and XiaoRue’s voice at the door,
"Xiao Jie, Minister Hua is waiting for you..."
’Minister Hua...Uncle Hua? That’s right...’ TanTan just rember the promise,
"XiaoRue, tell him I will co to et him now..." TanTan turns to ShuangAi. In a second, she can see a worried look on ShuangAi’s face, TanTan wonders,
"ShuangAii, what do you want to say just now?"
"Ah...nothing,..." The look right away changes, "MuTanJie, why does Minister Hua co to et you?"
"Oh, it seems he is fulfilling his promise to teach playing guzheng. If you want, you can join also..." TanTan walks out from the room, asking ShuangAi to join with her.
ShuangAi looks hesitated but she nods and then follows TanTan,
"Do you know Minister Hua also?" In the way, TanTan feels curious because ShuangAi’s reacted when he heard the na just now.
ShuangAi just shakes her head, "Not really...I know that in the past, you are quite close to him..." Suddenly ShuangAi stops, it wonders TanTan,
"What’s wrong?" she asked.
ShuangAi looks a little bit confused,
"It’s just MuTan Jie, you ever ntioned sothing about him to before you lost your mory...I think you should know it now although you don’t rember it..."
"What did I say?" TanTan feel weird for ShuangAi looks so serious about it,
So ShuangAi explains,
"You return from the palace at that ti and when I ca to talk with you, you look scared and want to cast away at first...but after that Minister Hua ca to see you but you oddly rejected him and even told that he couldn’t be trusted..."
’HuaMuTan scared to her uncle? Why?’
TanTan tries to process it in her mind. And then suddenly a small hug cos from her back,
"YangMu...Pretty JieJie..."
Aunt Tong who follows behind FangFang also cos and gestures politely to them.
"YangMu, I have done with my study...can we play now???" ask FangFang excitedly,
With a regretful look, TanTan answers her, "No...I am sorry, FangFang...I have a guest so we can’t play today..."
A disappointing look occurs right away on Fang Fang’s face,
"But YangMu, you promised!!" she says in a little bit high tone.
TanTan looks to FangFang in regret,
"I am really sorry, FangFang. I’ll make it in tomorrow, okay..."
"But I want you to be with now!!" FangFang shouts and holds TanTan’s hand and pulls her hard, it surprises TanTan. FangFang behaves like a pampered girl and it makes TanTan feels unpleased a little bit,
"FangFang, don’t be like this!" Inside her mind, she wonders why FangFang acts too spoiled suddenly.
ShuangAi can see that TanTan becos upset, so ShuangAi imdiately talks kindly to FangFang,
"FangFang, how if I accompany you playing now?"
FangFang looks to ShuangAi and then to TanTan, and she answers short.
"Ok," But FangFang seems still sad.
"Now, be good and wait here..." ShuangAi pats FangFang’s head and then imdiately drags TanTan away and whispers to her, trying not to be heard by FangFang,
"Please don’t be angry to FangFang, I know you don’t rember...but tomorrow is her birthday...and also the day her parents died.."
TanTan shocks,
’So that’s why she like that...’ Now, she feels guilty. She wants to bring FangFang with her but after hearing about Minister Hua from ShuangAi, she considers that she better goes alone.
ShuangAi continues,
"Don’t worry, I’ll accompany her until you finish the practice" TanTan doesn’t react anything else except just nodding to her.
But she then approaches FangFang, squatting at her front and touches FangFang’s cheeks with her hands,
"Hey, listen...FengEr, I am really sorry that I can be with you right now but I promised as soon I finish practice, I’ll play with you, is that okay?"
FangFang looks to TanTan for a second and slowly nods her head. And then ShuangAi takes FangFang leave. After that, TanTan continues walking to the guest room, where Minister Hua has waiting for her.
