Chapter 301: Seize Power 56

one who attempted to assassinate you"Feng Yu Xi hastily knelt down, shaking his head, tears streaming down his face."My Lord, I truly don't know who the assassin was. I only guessed it might be someo...Feng Ling's eyes lit up, and she looked at Dugu City with joy. "You're serious You really will accompany me shopping You won't lie to me"

Dugu City raised his hand, "I swear to heaven, if I don't take you with me, then I am a dog, how about that"

Feng Lingxi hurriedly extended her little finger and smiled at Dugu City, "Hook."

Du Gucheng and La Gou casually sealed a deal, her eyes softened with affection. Feng Lingxi blushed, hurriedly withdrawing her hand, her expression slightly embarrassed. This sight made Du Gucheng even happier, thinking about her previous temper, compared to now, it felt like a ferocious tiger had transformed into a docile lamb.

"Xier, do you know what your personality was like before"

Dugu Cheng suddenly spoke, bringing up something from the past. Feng Lingxi became interested and eagerly asked, "I wonder, could you tell me about what I was like before"

"Back then."

Dugu Cheng pretended to be mysterious and looked at her expectant eyes, saying seriously, "Very domineering, flamboyant, and crazy."

"Crazy"

Feng Lingxi heard the word, somewhat surprised. She pointed at herself in disbelief, "You're saying I was crazy before"

獨孤城 nodded, watching her face full of disbelief, a smile spread even wider across his face.

獨孤城點了點頭,看著她滿臉不可思議的表情,臉上的笑容越來越燦爛。

"Doesn't this feel like you"

Wind Ling Xi nodded, she couldn't imagine how her crazy rouge would look like.

"Can you tell me, how crazy am I"

“Whatever you want to do, you won’t hesitate. As long as you think about it, you will do it, and no matter what I said to you before, in your eyes, you are indifferent. You like alchemy and have many of your own ideas. Even when you say them out loud, you don't believe them. You used to be very arrogant and bold, even my father praised you.”

"Are you really talking about me"

Feng Lingxi swallowed nervously. She really couldn't imagine that she could ever be so powerful.

"Isn't it you Could it be me"

Dugu Cheng looked at her surprised and swallowing expression, which was very cute. This time wasn't the chance to tease her, if she recovered her memory later, there wouldn't be such a good opportunity.

"Then what kind of medicine will I refine"

"You're a master of everything. Your medical skills are no less than that of the imperial physician. It was you who cured my father's poison. You can not only cure poisons, but also brew them."

Thinking back to when I first married Xi'er, and our initial attempts to get intimate... he definitely took a lot of lumps! Now, looking back, I can't help but feel a tinge of envy for my past self. Every little moment we shared, despite the bickering and playful arguments, was truly precious.

Now, even though Xi'er is standing right in front of her, she has forgotten every little detail about him, every memory they shared. His memories are no longer their shared memories, but his alone.

"You're telling me, and I just can't believe it. It's impossible to imagine that the person you're talking about is actually..."

Dugu Cheng smiled indulgently, "Didn't expect it"

Feng Lingxi looked at the smile on Dugu Cheng's face and smiled along.

"Yeah, you're totally right. I feel like we're completely different people."

They smiled at each other, and Feng Lingxi's mood improved considerably.

"Dugu City, you are telling me about the past between us. I want to hear it."

Dugu City looked around, his gaze falling on the pavilion ahead. "Go sit over there, and I'll slowly tell you."

"Then you need to tell me everything, I want to know it all."

"Okay."

Dugu Cheng looked at Xi'er's smile and said so much, but she didn't remember anything at all. And she didn't even show the headache they talked about. How thoroughly had she forgotten

Looking at the smile on her face, Dugu City's face was smiling, but his heart ached terribly. He felt sorry for her now, and even more so for the relationship between him and Xi'er. He was afraid that Xi'er would forget him because of this incident, and even more afraid that she would fall in love with Huangfu Qingyun.

Huangfu Qingyun was more than just a lifesaver to Xi'er. There was also a marriage contract between them. He was handsome, of noble status, and treated Xi'er extremely well. Such a man would capture the hearts of countless women who would want to marry him. If it were the old Xi'er, he wouldn't be afraid, but now, his heart felt a twinge of unease.

"What are you thinking about Daydreaming"

Feng Ling reached out and waved her hand in front of him. Du Gu Cheng came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "I was thinking about things we did before, I got lost in thought."

Then tell me.

Feng Lingxi sat down and looked at Dugu City's face, staring at him expectantly.

"Alright, I'll begin then. Listen carefully."

Feng Lingxi nodded, her obedient appearance making Du Gucheng's heart ache.

"We're not childhood sweethearts, and we haven't known each other for long. You could say we were introduced through a fight."

Dugu City reminisced about the bits and pieces of his time with Xi'er, slowly recounting their story. He carefully avoided mentioning their first encounter where Xi'er forced him into a relationship, their marriage, and how they got along. He told her about his wager with the Empress, emphasizing that he wouldn't reveal their marriage as it wasn't against the rules.

Feng Lingxi listened intently to what Dugu Cheng was saying, her curiosity piqued.

"You said...how do I feel like we've always lived together"

Feng Ling Xi suddenly asked out her confusion, Du Gu Cheng's body stiffened, then he immediately showed a smile.

"Yeah, you used to run to my house all the time back then. Sometimes you'd even stay at my place for a few days, it was common. I got used to it."

"Not modest at all." Feng Lingxi was very dissatisfied. She really couldn't believe that those words were his own. What woman would be so unrestrained

Dugu Cheng heard the word "restrained" and almost laughed. Did these words apply to her

"This isn't being unrestrained, it's just living freely. I think it's great. Don't you want to live a life without constraints"

"But I've been bullying you all this time, how can you still be so happy, not even angry"

If it were her being treated this way, she would definitely hate that person.

Dugu Cheng looked at the dissatisfaction in her eyes, how could she understand his feeling of regaining what he had lost.

Even if he was bullied or beaten by her, he felt happy. As long as she was well, being bullied by her was also a kind of happiness.

"As long as you're willing, I'll let you bully me my whole life."

Du Gu Cheng looked at Xi Er, his eyes growing even more gentle.

Feng Lingxi was flustered by his words and quickly changed the subject.

"How come the Crown Prince has been gone for so long and hasn't returned yet I wonder what it is about me that he's dealing with."

Seeing her dodge the topic, Dugu Cheng knew that talking about these things now would be useless. After all, she had forgotten him. Unless he could make her fall in love with him again, anything he said would be meaningless.

"Things might be a bit tricky, let's give him some more time."

Feng Lingxi nodded and looked at Xiaoli standing not far away. She hurriedly called out, "Xiaoli, come here."

Xiao Li hurried forward, glanced at Dugu City, and her gaze fell on the princess.

"Miss."

"Do you know what His Royal Highness said about me Why hasn't he come back yet I hope he's not in danger."d a sense of resentment towards him. He explained, "This king didn't mean it that way, I just wanted to know if there was any connection.""Yes."Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Su, her beautiful eyes devoid...
