“Then I’ll go back first.” The Old Madam looked quite lonely as she walked out for some reason.

After the Old Madam left, Doctor Han was also leaving. “Young Master, if there’s nothing else, I’ll also leave.”

“Ugh…” Lu Han groaned and was unwilling to utter a word.

“Why are you still standing here then?” Lu Han only felt that his heart was in distress, so he pouted at Guan Tong. 

“Nothing.” Guan Tong looked at him with disdain, she felt as if Lu Han was having that time of the month like a woman or something, so she ignored him.

Lu Han’s eyes widened. He spoiled this girl so much that she dared to look at him with that annoyed look on her face. Guan Tong knew that Lu Han’s condition had improved, but she didn’t let her guard down. After all, this was a critical moment for her.

“How long do you plan to pretend to be in a coma for?” This was a question Guan Tong had always been curious about. Lu Han being in a comatose state meant that everyone would be eyeing him covetously.

“It’s not good for you to know too much.” Although Lu Han said harsh words to Guan Tong, he showed no signs of aggressiveness towards her.

“Oh, I’m just asking because I’m bored here.” Guan Tong shrugged.

“You won’t be so bored if Liu Juan makes her move in a few days.” Lu Han scoffed.

“Huh, you know about that?” Guan Tong was a little surprised. But on second thought, there was probably nothing in the castle that Lu Han did not know, even though he had been pretending to be in a comatose state for so many years.

“You must be very observant.” Guan Tong did not forget to refute Lu Han. 

Lu Han smiled slightly when he heard Guan Tong’s mocking tone. These few days, she had gotten used to having this girl by his side. Sometimes she could be noisy, and sometimes she’s quiet. But Lu Han’s heart was struggling. No matter how similar Guan Tong’s actions were to that woman, she wasn’t her.

“I’m going to take a shower.” Lu Han lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed.

“Wait a minute. You can’t take a shower today. You’ll catch a cold again, and all the acupuncture work that I did for you would be completely useless.” Guan Tong stopped him. Lu Han raised his eyebrows and wondered if Guan Tong lied as she wasn’t mad or tried to stop him last night when he showered.

“Don’t doubt me. I have medical knowledge. Even Doctor Han trusts me.” Guan Tong said with a severe tone. She wouldn’t dare repeat this intentionally.

“Okay.” Lu Han agreed. Guan Tong felt strange when she saw Lu Han lying down obediently. She didn’t know why he was easy on her today.

In the blink of an eye, it was the following day. Guan Tong went to gather the morning dew as usual. The moment Guan Tong closed the door, Lu Han opened his eyes.

“How was it?” Just as Lu Han finished speaking, a masked man suddenly appeared. His face was hard to make out. That man was none other than Lu Han’s shadow. The Shadow knelt on one knee. “Master, I’ve found the woman’s name.”

 “What’s her name?” Lu Han’s eyes lit up as he excitedly asked.

“Her name is Guan Tong.” The Shadow answered. Lu Han was shocked by the answer. Why did the woman have the same name as that wretched girl talking nonsense to him these past few days? Lu Han thought they had the same name, but it was impossible. Guan Tong’s characteristics were too similar to the woman.

“And who is she?” Lu Han still needed confirmation.

“Lin Tian’s niece, Lin Tian, is her uncle.” The Shadow replied. Lu Han was surprised. They matched, they matched perfectly. Lu Han suppressed the shock in his heart. Guan Tong and that woman were the same people!

“I got it.” Lu Han waved his hand, indicating that The Shadow could leave now.

Lu Han pressed his chest and recalled everything that night at the bar. Her beautiful face, graceful body, adorable tiny movements, charming eyes, everything about her made his heart skip a beat. 

After that night, Guan Tong left without saying a word, causing him to go crazy looking for that woman. It turned out that the woman he had been standing right in front of him and he didn’t even realize it. He threatened to kill her. However, Guan Tong’s actions and mannerisms that he noticed daily had already proven everything. It proved that the two were indeed the same person.

“Why do you look like you’re in a daze?” When Guan Tong returned, she saw Lu Han sitting on the bed, confused. No one could tell what he was thinking about. 

Lu Han looked at Guan Tong, who was facing the sun and his heart warmed out. He had a hunch that Guan Tong would stay by his side initially, but he didn’t know why Guan Tong’s face looked different from what he saw in his suspicion.

“I’m not thinking about anything.” Lu Han looked at the woman in front of him, and his eyes were about to be blinded by her. 

It seemed that Guan Tong still had more secrets that he did not know. Lu Han did not plan to tell Guan Tong his newfound knowledge of her. Guan Tong did not seem to remember him anymore. Lu Han could not help but smile bitterly that the girl he always longed for didn’t even have a memory of him.

Guan Tong wasn’t sure what had happened to Lu Han today. She was confused by his gentle expression. “I just saw Old Madam, and she said she will come and visit us in a few days.” It seemed that the matter of her grandson had made her impatient.

“It’s time to go back.” Lu Han smiled calmly, but his eyes were fixated on Guan Tong. They were the same person. He wondered why he hadn’t seen it all this time?

“Did you take the wrong medication today or something?” Guan Tong boldly touched Lu Han’s head, but he did not have a fever. Her fingers were warm, just like that woman. Lu Han was utterly dumbfounded..
