"We're a couple?!"
Li Yao's eyes widened in surprise, disbelief plastered across her beautiful face.
"Yes," Chen Yu nodded gravely, "we once soared side by side, comforted each other through thick and thin, matched in talent and beauty, and were inseparable. It was love at first sight, joy for both genders, the old man pushing the cart, journeying together to the Yellow Springs."
Li Yao: "..."
"In short, we ran towards each other," Chen Yu caressed the girl's smooth hand as his eyes narrowed slightly, sinking into mories: "Just like Liang Shanbo and Juliet, Roo and Zhu Yingtai."
Li Yao: "..."
"Unfortunately, the most beautiful love is always the Titanic," Chen Yu's tears slid down as his voice choked: "Your father, that old Deng, always bullied the young and poor. He thought I was not good enough for you and forcefully separated us."
Li Yao: "My father might have been right."
Chen Yu's sorrowful expression halted, and he let go of the girl's hand: "That's not what you said back then."
"Don't treat like a three-year-old," Li Yao cald down, her stern face appearing strikingly handso: "In any case, bring out evidence. You say we were a couple before, so there should be at least a photo."
"There is," Chen Yu pulled out his phone: "The photo is in my phone."
"Let's see it."
"The phone's out of battery."
"..."
"But I have other things that can prove it."
"Show ." Li Yao stretched out her hand.
"First, I want to present a logical evidence," Chen Yu put his hands in his pockets, turned around, and looked up at the twenty-sixth level ceiling of the stone tower: "Why did your father introduce your sister to ? It was to break us up. He wanted to give the young one to make give up the older one. But I am a man, of course, I wouldn't agree!"
"You only want ?" Li Yao raised an eyebrow.
"I want both!" Chen Yu answered.
Li Yao: "???"
"No," Chen Yu corrected himself swiftly: "I an, I don't want either!"
"Why?"
"Because..." Chen Yu turned back, his expression intense as he locked eyes with the girl once more: "Won are not objects. It's not about wanting or not wanting, but about liking or not liking. You love , and are willing to be with , that's what I want. Not like your father, treating you as commodities for his gain."
At these words, the girl fell silent.
Chen Yu seized the mont to press on: "What I want is for you to love too! But ever since your father erased your mory, all I could do was silently walk away. Because I knew, in your heart, I was no longer there."
"What?" Li Yao seed to hear sothing terrifying, her pupils suddenly dilating: "Are you saying my mory was erased by my father?"
"What else? You've had mory loss several tis, do you think it's all just coincidences?"
"I've had mory loss multiple tis?!"
"You think it was just once?" Chen Yu scoffed.
He had suspected there was sothing amiss with the girl's mory for a long ti.
When he first swiped a "copyable skill" from her, he also discovered the ability called "Sealed mory" on her.
"Sealed mory"
This line alone conveyed a wealth of information.
At the ti, he was unconcerned with her issues and didn't bother to pay attention. He had thought about finishing his business and moving on.
Now, it was handy for persuasion.
"Do you have any evidence to prove I've lost my mory multiple tis?" Li Yao, having regained her composure, asked sternly.
"Of course, but I'll need to dig it out bit by bit." With the upper hand, Chen Yu naturally chose not to switch tracks but continued to focus fiercely on their relationship: "Right now, the main point I need to prove is our relationship as a couple. We can discuss the rest later."
"Okay," the girl nodded: "Then keep talking."
"If we were a couple, our relationship was obviously close. For instance, I know that your power level was D-grade! You had trained up to the Eighth Level of the Defying Fate Skill. Right?"
"...That's correct," Li Yao pondered for a mont, then nodded: "Before the mory loss, I had trained the Defying Fate Skill up to the eighth level. After the mory loss, it fell back to the fourth level. But because of my previous foundation, my training is progressing quickly. However, just this fact alone isn't evidence. My prior power level is recorded in the backend data."
"Then let ntion so things that aren't recorded. You like drinking tea, and you don't care about the thod of brewing. Even so, you have many rules. You like to pick good leaves and place them on paper before wetting them."
"This... is correct." The girl seed thoughtful.
"You like tranquility. So this hobby must be known by very few, right?"
"Yes. What else?"
"There's more," Chen Yu took Li Yao's hand: "Follow ." Find your next read on empire
"Where to?"
"To help you regain your mory."
Leading the girl back to the massage room, Chen Yu pushed open the door, and gestured to the plump neighbor inside: "Fatty, co here."
"What... what's up?"
"You have many website accounts, right?"
"What websites?"
"Slap!"
Chen Yu slapped the plump neighbor's forehead: "Acting, still acting with . What websites? Give so accounts."
"You... you... how did you know?!" the plump neighbor was terrified.
His secret as a top-level expert was sothing he had never shared with anyone.
"Are you going to give them or not?" Chen Yu pulled out a pistol from his chest.
Plump neighbor: "..."
"Click."
Chen Yu cocked the hamr.
"Give, give, give, give!" the plump neighbor nodded hurriedly, his face in pain as he spat out a string of numbers and letters.
