“Ding!”

“Reasonable exercise, strength +10kg.”

In the end.

Jiang He completed his 【post-lunch exercise】 fully clothed.

He was wearing a psychiatric patient uniform.

Jogging on the streets by himself.

Yun Yanchen followed behind, feeling the stares from passersby, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into!

She deliberately slowed down.

Falling behind Jiang He by about 5 meters.

Arriving at the entrance of the residential complex, Yun Yanchen finally took off her mask and said, “Jiang He, do you remember this place?”

“Renhe Yaju…”

Looking at the complex in front of him.

Jiang He felt some vague memories surfacing in his mind, but those memories were extremely chaotic and he couldn’t “see” them clearly.

Seeing his reaction, Yun Yanchen said, “Let’s go in and take a walk around the complex.”

The environment inside the complex was nice.

Right at the entrance was a fountain, with children playing around it.

Further ahead was a lotus pond.

A small wooden bridge was built over the pond, and there was a wooden pavilion in the center of the pond, where several elderly men and women were playing cards.

Yun Yanchen pointed to a mid-rise building next to the lotus pond and said, “Your home is in Apartment 801 of this building’s Unit 2. Do you want to go up and take a look?”

“Let’s go.”

Jiang He strode to the entrance of the building.

However, he found that the entrance door was locked, requiring a code or a card to open.

Yun Yanchen stepped forward and expertly entered the code.

“Ding!”

“Please be careful when opening the door.”

The door opened.

Jiang He blinked and couldn’t help asking, “How do you know the code for my home’s entrance door?”

Yun Yanchen giggled and said, “I used to come to your place often to play, you told me the password…”

Saying so.

She pulled out a set of keys from her pocket and dangled them in front of Jiang He, saying, “Look, these are your house keys, you gave them to me…”

Taking the elevator.

They arrived at the eighth floor.

Yun Yanchen opened the door and went in first.

The room’s furniture was covered with white cloths, and dust had settled on the floor. Yun Yanchen pulled off the cloth covering the sofa and said, “You were in a coma for a while, and after waking up…”

She paused, pointing to her head, “That’s when the problems started, and then my dad arranged for someone to send you to Anning Hospital for treatment. At that time, I had just awakened my extraordinary abilities and was sent to learn from a senior extraordinary person by my dad.”

“I returned to Wucheng two months ago and participated in the Northwestern University Martial Arts Competition. I haven’t had time to visit you or clean your house…”

Jiang He was puzzled, “Are we really just classmates? Can a relationship between classmates… be this close?”

Yun Yanchen blinked and said, “I’ve already told you, my dad and your dad are very close, so we knew each other since we were kids and often played together.”

Jiang He was skeptical.

He always felt that this girl must be hiding something.

But since Yun Yanchen wasn’t saying more, he didn’t bother to ask.

He wandered around the room, finding a family photo.

In the photo, there was a tall and burly middle-aged man, with a woman in alloy armor beside him, holding a child about 1 year old in her arms.

“Is this ‘me’ as a child, along with my parents?”

As he stared at the photo, Jiang He felt a pain in his head, and fragments of memories flickered unstably, but those memories remained chaotic and unclear.

Yun Yanchen asked with concern, “Jiang He, have you remembered anything?”

Jiang He shook his head.

Yun Yanchen frowned and said, “You were ambushed by evil martial artists. They used a special poison to destroy your dantian qi sea and cripple your extraordinary abilities. According to experts, the abilities of an extraordinary person are contained within their genes, but after awakening, it exists as a form of spiritual power… Your madness might be due to that poison damaging your spirit.”

“Not remembering your past might also be related to this poison.”

“In that case, your amnesia might be a blessing in disguise…”

Yun Yanchen’s eyes flickered slightly, saying, “Over the years, there have been many talents poisoned in this way. Perhaps we could try making them forget… If it really works, it would indeed be a great deed.”

“Don’t!”

Jiang He knew his own situation.

It had nothing to do with amnesia; he had “transferred” here. He immediately made up an excuse, “People have different constitutions, and besides, I lost my memory after jumping off a building. What if someone else jumps and dies?”

“That makes sense.”

Yun Yanchen’s tone shifted, and she chuckled, “Speaking of which… why did you go jump off a building? I heard you were crying and making a scene, saying you wanted to see me?”

“How would I know if I’ve lost my memory…”

Jiang He rummaged through his home in a mess.

And he actually…

Found his ID card!

The room was covered in dust with nowhere to sit, so Yun Yanchen said, “Let’s go. We’ll buy you some things at the mall, and later I’ll find a part-time cleaner to tidy up your place.”

When leaving.

Jiang He took out “Rehmannia Pills” from his pocket and ate three more.

“Ding!”

“Reasonable medication, strength +10.”

Yun Yanchen’s eyes showed a hint of concern, “Do you need to take medication many times a day now?”

Jiang He put the “Rehmannia Pills” back into his pocket, saying, “Yes, I’ll have an episode if I don’t take them… By the way, could you make me another copy of my house keys? In case I sneak out again, it would be good to have a place to return to.”

“Just don’t cause any trouble, listen to the doctors at the hospital, and try to recover soon.”

“I’m not sick…”

“Yeah, yeah, you’re not sick… By the way, do all the patients in your hospital think they’re not sick?”

Jiang He: “……”

The two of them looked like a couple.

Shopping together.

Yun Yanchen bought whatever she saw, and soon Jiang He was laden with bags big and small.

“Clothes, shoes, socks, underwear…”

Yun Yanchen counted on her fingers, “I bought you three sets of each, that should be enough for now… and also a razor. You should shave regularly. Do you need anything else?”

“Later, buy me a phone charger and get a SIM card… Also, buy me a computer. Consider the money as a loan from me, and I’ll pay you back after I get discharged.”

“Only a charger and a SIM card? Don’t you need a phone?”

“No need to buy a phone, one of the doctors at our hospital gave me one…”

At five in the afternoon.

Yun Yanchen took Jiang He back to the hospital.

She had her bodyguards help Jiang He move his things to his ward, and before he headed back to his ward, she hesitated for a moment and then said—

“Jiang He… I know you’re having a hard time. You were once a celebrated martial arts genius who had awakened extraordinary abilities. Now that your qi sea is destroyed and your extraordinary abilities have been crippled, you can no longer continue your cultivation. But don’t be discouraged, in today’s era, being an ordinary person is also quite good.”

Having a hard time?

Jiang He smiled, “I’m very happy every day, not suffering at all… Alright, I’m going back to take my medication!”

Watching Jiang He enter the inpatient building.

Yun Yanchen finally left Anning Hospital and returned home.

Her family lived in a three-story detached house.

Yun Yanchen’s father, Yun Zheng, was a businessman and a martial artist. Although he was middle-aged, he was very fit. He was sitting on the sofa drinking tea and smiled, asking, “Have you seen him?”

Yun Yanchen didn’t answer directly, just poured herself a glass of cold tea and drank it all in one go.

Yun Zheng asked, “What do you think?”

“About what?”

Yun Yanchen said, “Jiang He is still the same Jiang He, he’s just lost his memory, he just can’t continue his cultivation… Dad, you always talk about integrity, don’t tell me you’re thinking of going back on the agreement you made with Uncle Jiang?”

Yun Zheng was silent for a long time.

Then he said, “It concerns my daughter, I must consider it carefully… Yanchen, you’re only 20 years old, already a Level 5 water-type extraordinary person, and your martial arts are almost at the level of a second-grade martial artist. Your future is limitless, but Jiang He is a lunatic, a cripple!”

“Dad!”

Yun Yanchen slammed her cup onto the coffee table.

Yun Zheng quickly shut up and put on a smiling face, “Alright, alright, I won’t say more. My daughter has grown up… You make your own decisions.”

Saying so.

He got up.

Bowed his back and walked away, showing an “old and decrepit” posture.

Yun Yanchen then said, “Dad, there’s something I want your help with… Jiang He was ambushed in the city, and the cultist from the Demon Sect who harmed him has not been found yet…”

Yun Zheng’s expression changed.

“My precious daughter!”

“The Martial Arts Administration has been trying to eradicate the Demon Sect for many years without success, how could I, a mere businessman, dare to investigate?”
