After finally washing it thoroughly, Su Fuliu asked, "Why is Your Highness's face so red?"
Feng Muting replied with his eyes closed, "Don't you even count how many times you've washed my face? How could it not be red?"
Su Fuliu choked for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Highness may open your eyes now."
He managed to get away with it.
Feng Muting then opened his eyes and looked at Su Fuliu, who was breathing a sigh of relief, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, A-Liu."
Su Fuliu chuckled awkwardly, "It's not hard work at all, Your Highness, doesn't your face hurt?"
He saw that Feng Muting's face was red from washing, and he was afraid that Feng Muting's face would hurt.
"It does hurt a little, but it doesn't hurt anymore after Ah Liu touches it," Feng Muting replied.
Normally, Su Fuliu would never have agreed, but since he was in the wrong, he reached out and gently touched Feng Muting's face, asking, "Is it alright now?"
Feng Muting also raised his hand and grasped Su Fuliu's hand, lingering on his face: "Aliu's hand is so soft."
Su Fuliu shyly withdrew her hand and said, "Your Highness is so cloying."
Feng Muting laughed and said, "You are now the closest person to me. If I don't spend time with you, who else will I spend time with?"
"How annoying!" Su Fuliu said coquettishly, and then went to wash up by herself.
Feng Muting smiled as he watched him shyly slip away, and then ordered someone to prepare breakfast.
After breakfast, Feng Muting asked Su Fuliu, "What would you like to do today?"
Su Fuliu thought for a moment and said, "Before, I couldn't see, so the prince told me about the scenery here. Now that my eyesight is better, I want to go out and see it for myself."
Feng Muting thought for a moment and said, "Well, then I'll take you out for a stroll. But your eyes have only just recovered, and Doctor Lu said you shouldn't be exposed to too much bright light, so I'll have to go and prepare a veil for you."
Su Fuliu nodded: "Okay."
Shortly after, Feng Muting brought a veil and put it on Su Fuliu. After she put it on, Feng Muting laughed and said, "You should wear this when you go out from now on. That way, no one will be able to see what you look like, and no one will have any designs on you."
Su Fuliu looked at Feng Muting through the white veil and said, "Your Highness is saying such things again. Didn't I say that with Your Highness here, who would dare to plot against me?"
"That's true." Feng Muting smiled, then took Su Fuliu's hand and led him out.
As they admired the beautiful scenery, the two chatted: "Your Highness, when we're done sightseeing and go back, you have to go to the kitchen and stew some fish for me. You promised yesterday."
Feng Muting nodded slightly: "No problem. Besides fish soup, is there anything else you'd like to eat?"
“Well, I’m not picky about food. It mainly depends on what Your Highness can cook,” Su Fuliu replied.
Feng Muting smiled awkwardly but confidently: "I can't do anything."
"...Your Highness can't do anything, yet you ask such nice questions?" Su Fuliu was both amused and exasperated.
Feng Muting replied, "Although I don't know how to cook, I have the heart to do it. Food made with love is naturally the most delicious."
Su Fuliu snorted: "I think the prince is good for nothing but smooth talk!"
“You can’t say that. This isn’t just smooth talk; it’s clearly sweet talk. Doesn’t A-Liu want to hear it?” Feng Muting asked.
Just as Feng Muting was expecting Su Fuliu's answer, Su Fuliu suddenly raised her hand and lifted the white veil on her hat, saying, "I don't want to hear that. Your Highness can't hold your liquor, can't even wash your face, and can't cook. Your Highness is a big idiot!"
After saying that, he stuck out his tongue at Feng Muting, made a face, and then hopped away like a little rabbit.
Chapter 251 Shirou
Feng Muting was stunned for a moment, then realized what he meant and immediately chased after him: "You, A-Liu, how dare you call me a big idiot! I'll catch you, skin you naked, and roast you!"
Su Fuliu laughed as she ran, "Your Highness, you can't cheat! You can't use your lightness skill, you can only run on your own two legs! If Your Highness can catch me, I'll take back what I just said!"
"It would be a piece of cake for me to catch you!" Feng Muting felt that if he couldn't catch up with Su Fuliu, he would be completely disliked by Su Fuliu.
They're already complaining that he can't drink alcohol, can't wash his face, and can't cook.
Su Fuliu ran forward, and after a while, she dodged to the side, found a secluded spot, and squatted down, curling up into a ball, trying to hide herself so that Feng Muting couldn't find her.
After curling up into a ball, the white veil on his hat covered half of his body, making him look like a little white rabbit at first glance.
But just then, he heard the sound of rushing water coming from the bushes in front of him, followed by someone singing: "Flowers of the world bloom in all directions, in the east there is Ya'er, in the south there is Jing..."
Su Fuliu's eyes widened immediately, and she stood up abruptly. Just then, Feng Muting arrived.
Just as he was about to grab Su Fuliu, he saw Su Fuliu remove her veil and walk through the bushes.
He paused for a moment, then followed.
Su Fuliu arrived at the edge of a hot spring pool and saw Bai Yulang soaking in it.
Bai Yulang leaned back, still humming the song that Su Fuliu had just heard.
Su Fuliu dropped the veil she was holding, her eyes suddenly filling with tears, and she murmured in a trembling voice, "Shilang..."
His voice wasn't loud, so Bai Yulang didn't hear it, but Feng Muting, who had followed him, did.
Feng Muting paused for a moment, then looked at Bai Yulang, who was humming a lullaby with his eyes closed, still wondering if Su Fuliu had called him by the wrong name.
But let's set aside whether it was a mistake or not.
But Su Fuliu's expression is not right. Why would he suddenly get so excited when he sees Bai Yulang?
While enjoying the hot spring bath, Bai Yulang felt as if someone was watching him. He opened his eyes and saw Su Fuliu and Feng Muting standing in front of him, staring at him.
He was taken aback for a moment, then dove into the water, leaving only his head above water: "What are you two doing? Are you openly peeping at someone taking a bath?"
Su Fuliu tried hard to control her emotions, but her voice still trembled slightly: "What...what were you singing just now?"
Bai Yulang was taken aback again: "Just now? Oh, I don't know what it's called either, but this song just pops into my head every time I sing it. Maybe it's something I learned before. Did I sing it very well? Young Master Su, would you like to learn? I can teach you!"
Su Fuliu shook her head: "No need... But, Young Master Bai, do you not know where you learned this song from?"
“I don’t know, I… I don’t remember anything from before,” Bai Yulang replied.
"What do you mean?" Su Fuliu was stunned.
Just as Bai Yulang was about to answer, Lu Chimo came over with clean clothes: "When Yulang was brought back by my master, he had already lost his memory."
Su Fuliu asked again, "Then, how did he know his name was Bai Yulang?"
Bai Yulang smiled and said, "My master gave me this name. When he found me, I happened to have a white jade pendant on me with the character 'Lang' engraved on it. So my master named me Bai Yulang. I must say, my master is quite good at choosing names. This name sounds very nice."
"Jade pendant?" Su Fuliu was even more excited. He grabbed Feng Muting's hand tightly, seeking support, afraid that he might lose his balance later.
Feng Muting glanced at Su Fuliu, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly, wondering why Su Fuliu had reacted so strongly.
"Yes, that white jade pendant looks incredibly valuable. I always carry it with me; it's all my worldly possessions!" Bai Yulang said with a smile.
"Can I...can I take a look?" Su Fuliu asked.
“Sure, I’ll show it to you.” Bai Yulang said, getting ready, but when he saw Feng Muting still standing there, he immediately shrank back. “Um, could you please ask your prince to leave for a moment? It’s so embarrassing.”
Su Fuliu was taken aback for a moment: "We're all men, what's there to be embarrassed about?"
Before Bai Yulang could explain, Feng Muting had already released Su Fuliu's hand and turned his back.
Then, Bai Yulang replied, "It's like when your back hurts, why does the prince insist on me giving you acupuncture instead of my senior brother? It's the same principle."
Su Fuliu belatedly realized what was happening and glanced at Lu Chimo with some embarrassment.
Lu Chimo's expression was not unusual; he simply stood quietly to the side and waited for Bai Yulang to get up before going over to help him wipe his body.
After seeing this, Su Fuliu felt embarrassed and turned her back as well.
No one asked him to turn around; he was just too embarrassed to look.
After Lu Chimo helped Bai Yulang put on his clothes, Bai Yulang quickly kissed him on the cheek: "Thank you, senior brother. You're so kind."
Chapter 252 What is the background of Young Master Bai?
Lu Chimo smiled and said, "Naughty."
Bai Yulang smiled and then walked to the clothes he had changed out of. He squatted down and reached into the clothes to take out a white jade pendant.
He walked along the edge of the hot spring pool, came to Su Fuliu's side, and said, "Young Master Su, let me show you my 'entire possessions'."
Su Fuliu slowly turned around, her gaze immediately falling on the white jade pendant in Bai Yulang's hand.
He grabbed it and looked at it over and over again.
Seeing his excited expression, Bai Yulang laughed and said, "It seems that Young Master Su has a good eye for things. This white jade pendant is very valuable."
"Does this jade pendant belong to Young Master Bai?" Su Fuliu asked.
Bai Yulang was taken aback for a moment: "Of course it's mine. Young Master Su, you don't happen to like this white jade pendant and want to buy it, do you? That won't do. Although it's all my possessions, it's the only thing I own that I wear close to my body. I don't want to sell it."
Su Fuliu shook her head: "I don't want to buy your jade pendant, I just want to ask if it belongs to Young Master Bai."
“Yes, of course it’s mine. It’s hanging on me, so whose else could it be if not mine?” Bai Yulang nodded.
Su Fuliu returned the jade pendant to Bai Yulang, who then put it on his person.
He kept staring at Bai Yulang, but neither Bai Yulang's appearance nor his personality matched.
His son is a calm, reserved, and taciturn cold-faced general in public, only becoming gentle when he returns home from the battlefield.
His Shilang would help his elder sister tend to the flowers she grew, sing "Human Flower" with him, and play games with Shijin in his arms.
This song, "Flowers of the Human World," was a ballad he composed, about his four siblings.
But the current Bai Yulang is lively and talkative, and his personality is completely different from his Shilang.
However, Bai Yulang's amnesia might explain his drastic personality change.
But this face doesn't make sense; it's not Shiro's face.
Thinking of this, he suddenly ran away.
Feng Muting immediately chased after him and accompanied him back.
Bai Yulang stared blankly at Su Fuliu and Feng Muting as they walked away, somewhat bewildered: "Senior brother, what's wrong with Young Master Su?"
Lu Chimo shook his head: "I don't know. Let's go. You just finished soaking in the hot spring. Going back and getting some sleep will be better for your health."
“Okay, let’s go back then.” Bai Yulang nodded and pulled Lu Chimo back, completely unaware that Lu Chimo was looking at him with a slightly probing gaze.
After returning to the room, Lu Chimo said, "Yulang, get some sleep. I still have some medicinal herbs to sort out. I'll come back later."
"Oh, then go ahead and get busy, I'm going to sleep," Bai Yulang replied.
