At the entrance, he suddenly stopped, and said in a low voice, "Since thatâs the case, then come with me."
Gu Qiaoqiao felt a surge of joy in her heart and nodded hastily, then followed Master Fong toward the direction of the corridor.
Master Wang followed suit.
As they walked, Master Fong asked, "Qiaoqiao, are you sure?"
"I canât be sure; Iâll only know after seeing the person," Gu Qiaoqiao added, "I just need to see the red flame on his palm, and then I can be sure."
These words were true.
Gu Qiaoqiao knew what the red flame in Xiao Wenâs palm looked like, even though there was nothing in her own palm.
But Xiao Wen told her that another person had the same flame mark in their palm.
As long as the mark in the palm matches Xiao Wenâs, plus the Southwest accent, then it must be the other person Xiao Wen mentioned who possesses the Mystic Dragon Token.
As for why she couldnât find him all this time, and he never came forward, thereâs now a good reason explained.
He lost his memory for some unknown reason, and was picked up by Master Fong, temporarily working odd jobs at the Lijing Ho.
After all, this place provides food, lodging, and clothing.
With this thought, Gu Qiaoqiaoâs steps felt lighter.
If it really is that person, that would truly be great.
The saying "search high and low without finding, only to find effortlessly" seems to be her current situation.
Otherwise, finding a person with amnesia could take ten or even eight years and might never happen.
Although Master Fong had many questions in his mind, he couldnât ask any since Master Wang was right there.
He could only walk forward with a furrowed brow and tightly pursed lips.
In his heart, he was pondering Qin Yizeâs little wife, Gu Qiaoqiao.
Sometimes, this girl gives off a very mysterious vibe.
Moreover, many times, what her eyes reveal does not match her age.
But sometimes, sheâs simple and cute, like a child who never grows up.
She truly is a very contradictory person.
Master Fong thought to himself, wondering if Qin Yize had noticed the differences in Gu Qiaoqiao compared to others.
Even though Qin Yize is much more vigilant than he is, itâs clear to anyone that Gu Qiaoqiao is someone he cherishes deeply.
He loves Gu Qiaoqiao very much.
Love can blind a personâs eyes.
Just like he was back in those days.
Blinded by the surface, enamored to the core, heart and soul full of her, wishing to meet her even in the next life.
But, in the end, she betrayed him.
She also betrayed the beliefs they held together.
That was the pain of his lifetime.
It was also a past he never wished to recall.
Thus, he hoped Qin Yize wouldnât have to suffer the same pain he did.
He thought if he had the chance, he should gently talk to Ah Ze about Gu Qiaoqiao.
Gu Qiaoqiao was unaware that Master Fong had already started to suspect her.
Even if she knew, Gu Qiaoqiao couldnât tell Master Fong the truth.
After all, Master Fong was not Qin Yize.
So, some things could only remain muddled like this.
Hopefully, Master Fong wouldnât pursue the matter further.
In her previous life, when she contemplated death, Master Fong was far away and not in the Imperial Capital, and Chang Qing was in an unknown place.
Thus, she was lonely and helpless, ultimately choosing death.
When Master Fong returned, he must have been sad and angry.
Hence, Gu Qiaoqiao did not wish to ruin her relationship with Master Fong in this life; it was something Gu Qiaoqiao never wanted to see.
With their own thoughts, the two silently walked forward.
