Yin Yi was indeed a veteran in the business world. Not only did he exchange 300,000 taels for a peerless beauty, but he also asked for Wu Tian's luxurious carriage that he had stolen from a certain prince's mansion.
Sitting in the comfortable carriage, Yin Yi quietly admired the beauty who was still unconscious.
"So beautiful!" He couldn't help but exclaim again. With a smile, he reached out his hand to the sleeping face.
Looking at her was no longer enough to satisfy him. He wanted to feel her.
His rough fingers traced her delicate features and touched her face over and over again.
This was the smoothest and most delicate face he had ever touched! His eyebrows, eyes, and mouth felt like he was touching a rare treasure.
His hand slid down her neck and gently touched her skin.
" Eh, this is…" He saw a golden medal on her neck.
He took off the gold medal and looked at it carefully.
It was a gold medal that was only as thick as his thumb and as wide as his thumb. The front of the gold medal was smooth and flawless. There were no patterns carved on it.
On the back of the gold medal were two words:
Chaoyan
" Chaoyan…" He muttered softly. This should be the name of this girl who looked to be around 17 or 18 years old!
In his opinion, this gold medal should not be fake.
The gold medal was real. Although the clothes she was wearing were damaged in many places, it could still be seen that the original price of the material was definitely not low. With the gold medal and the extraordinary clothes, it was obvious that this woman came from a wealthy family!
It seemed that his 300,000 taels of silver had not been wasted. He had bought something good.
" Chaoyan…" He repeated the word again. Looking at the sleeping her, he couldn't help but smile.
As he smiled, he heard a faint moan.
His smile deepened as he looked expectantly at the face that already belonged to him.
"Oh…"
Listening to the faint moans, Yin Yi looked deeply into her eyes that were more beautiful than he had imagined. She was completely awake.
" Ah!" Obviously, she wasn't even one-tenth as happy as Yin Yi. She was frightened and screamed.
However, she did not have much strength after waking up. As soon as she stood up, her legs went weak.
"Be careful!" Yin Yi's large hands reached out in time and effortlessly hugged the beauty.
"Don't fall, okay?" Yin Yi couldn't help but smile as he hugged her soft body.
No wonder Wu Tian glared at him with unconcealed hatred. This girl was indeed worth it.
"Who are you?" Chao Yan calmed down slightly and hurriedly broke free from his embrace.
What a pleasant voice! It was rare for Yin Yi to look at her with a gentle gaze. He chuckled and said,""I am Yin Yi. What about you, young lady?"
"Me?" The young girl looked at him blankly. Slowly, her beautiful face was filled with panic.
"I…I don't know!" She shook her head in panic and shouted helplessly,"Heavens, who am I? Why can't I remember anything?"
Can't remember? Yin Yi looked at Chao Yan's panicked expression in surprise. She didn't look like she was lying.
Even he didn't know who he was? Could it be that he had lost his memory?
"Do you recognize this thing?" Yin Yi handed her gold medal to her.
She looked at the gold medal and shook her beautiful but confused face at him.
"You don't recognize it?" Yin Yi frowned slightly. "This was originally hanging around your neck. I think it should be yours.”
Chao Yan looked at him with trepidation. She slowly reached out her trembling hands, wanting to take her things back.
" Don't worry." Yin Yi quickly retracted his palm. It was indeed hers, but he had no intention of returning it to her.
Chao Yan shifted her body back uneasily." Please return it to me."”
"I'll pay you back." Yin Yi smiled as he looked at her face, which was filled with fear but not a single bit of beauty. "Chaoyan, don't you have any memory of it?”
"You…How did you know my name is Chaoyan?”The young girl asked in a trembling voice.
" There are two words engraved on the back of the gold medal," Yin Yi replied gently." I think that should be your name."”
"My name is Chaoyan?" She looked at him gloomily, then hugged her head and cried out in pain,""My name is Chaoyan? Why? Why didn't I know? Heavens! What is going on?"
She hugged her knees tightly and buried her face in her arms.
Seeing her in so much pain, Yin Yi was convinced that she had indeed lost her memory. This change was not bad. Perhaps it could save him a lot of trouble. A woman without a past was much easier to deal with than a normal woman.
"Chaoyan, don't you want to know how I saved you?”
Chao Yan suddenly looked up." Why? Did you save me?"”She asked with tears in her eyes.
"That's right!" Yin Yi told her without hiding anything. Of course, he only said that he had spent money to save her from the heinous Syndicate of the Heavens. He did not say what kind of relationship he had with the Syndicate of the Heavens.
"If it wasn't for me, I'm afraid that you would have already become the wife of those bandits.”
Chao Yan was still at a loss. Yin Yi had explained it clearly, but the more she listened, the more confused she became.
She was rescued from the water? Yin Yi had saved her from the hands of a villain? She had been unconscious all this time, but she had become like this after she woke up? Did she lose her memory? Was she really Chaoyan?
Who was Chaoyan?
However, even in her extreme confusion, she did not forget the most important thing. "Young Master Yin, thank you for saving me.”She sincerely thanked her savior.
Yin Yi smiled evilly. "It's not difficult to thank me. Let me kiss you first!”
What was that? Before Chao Yan could react, Yin Yi's handsome face had already pressed down on her. In shock, her lips pressed tightly against his hot lips.
Yin Yi hugged her struggling head and licked her soft and sweet lips again and again.
So soft, so soft, so sweet! He kissed her again and again.
He only let go of her after ravaging her small mouth to his heart's content. Looking at her flushed face from panting, he couldn't help but be mesmerized!
The blush on her cheeks made her pale face look a little more beautiful, making his heart itch.
The heavy slap on his face interrupted his reverie.
"What are you doing?" He grabbed her thin wrist in a fit of rage and growled,"You hit me? Is this how you treat your savior?”
Chao Yan's starry eyes were filled with tears, and her pretty face turned even redder because of anger. "It's your fault. How could you take advantage of me!”It was true that she had lost her memory, but she had not forgotten the restraint and self-cultivation that a woman should have.
" I'm taking advantage of you? Don't forget, you're already mine." Yin Yi said sternly.
Chaoyan couldn't believe what she heard." I'm yours? What did you say? How could it be…"
"Why not?" Yin Yi's anger had not subsided. How could he be appeased? No one had ever dared to treat him like this. He had never thought that he would be slapped in the face one day. Never!
No woman dared to do that. Those women who loved his looks and his money would usually flatter him too late. No one would dare to make him unhappy.
However, this girl did this. She actually did this to him, who had saved her life!
Grabbing her shoulders, he was so angry that his ten fingers gripped her arm tightly. "I saved you and bought you. You're mine! From now on, I'm your master. I'm free to treat you however I want. The only thing you can do is accept it.”He ordered.
"No!" She shook her head desperately, and the pain in her arm made her cry unconsciously.
" You can't do this. Although you saved me, you can't…" Her sweet voice was mixed with sobs.
" I can't?" Yin Yi sneered. He wanted to see if he could.
He stretched out his hand and hugged her body in front of his chest. He found her lips that were avoiding him and his angry mouth forcefully rubbed against her fragile lips.
Listening to her painful breathing, he sucked the saliva in her mouth with all his might, his wriggling tongue wantonly stirring in her small mouth.
As if he wanted to punish her, he kissed her domineeringly until she collapsed weakly in his arms.
She didn't know how long had passed before she regained her steady breathing.
Chao Yan looked up with a pale face and could no longer hold back her tears.
"Why?" She had too many questions for him. "Why are you doing this to me? I just…"
Before Chao Yan could finish her sentence, Yin Yi interrupted her domineeringly.
"No reason? Anyway, you're already mine. I don't need any reason.”Yin Yi lifted her chin. Her pitiful look made him want to kiss her again.
"No!" She screamed and used all her strength to push him away. "If you touch me again, I'll die for you!”
"Interesting!" Yin Yi laughed."It's useless to scare me."”
"I'm not scaring you." Her tearful face was filled with determination. She said clearly,"Rather than being humiliated by you, I might as well die. Anyway, I…"
Anyway, it's too painful for me to live without a past! That was what Chao Yan was thinking.
"You would rather die than be with me?”Yin Yi couldn't help but laugh out loud. This was too ridiculous.
If she knew how many girls in Yellowstone Town, even the girls in the brothels, dreamed of getting his pity, perhaps she would not have such thoughts.
"Yes!" Chaoyan's tone was quite certain. She looked at him pleadingly."I know you're a gentleman. You won't make things difficult for me, right?"”
Yin Yi's smile disappeared, and his eyes were filled with coldness. "I'm sorry, I, Yin Yi, have never been a gentleman. I'm going to disappoint you!”
"You…"
"I think you should just accept your fate!" Yin Yi's patience was running out. If it weren't for her beauty, he would have kicked her away a long time ago!
He said expressionlessly,"Don't you know what's good for you? How am I not worthy of you?"?With my looks and my wealth, I'm not boasting. Unless you're a relative of the royal family, who dares to say that we're not a golden couple? Besides, now that you've lost your memory, how are you going to live in the future? Why don't you let me take care of you? Don't worry, as long as you're obedient, I'll take good care of you…"
"I don't want to!" She screamed and interrupted Yin Yi.
" You…" He did not expect that his earnest persuasion would be met with a " I don't want it ". Yin Yi, who was about to go mad, reached out and grabbed Chao Yan. Such an ungrateful person should be taught a lesson.
" Don't! Let go of me!" Chao Yan's screams echoed in the carriage.
Just as Yin Yi shouted," Shut up!", the carriage stopped.
"Yu Xuan, what are you doing?" Yin Yi shouted.
Yu Xuan quickly replied,"Young Master, the horse pulling the carriage doesn't seem right. I want to stop and see how the situation is."”
When Yin Yi heard this, he turned around and glared at Chao Yan." I'll let you off for now!”After saying that, he got off the carriage.
Chao Yan hugged her trembling shoulders as tears rolled down her pale face helplessly.
There was indeed a problem. One of the two horses pulling the carriage suddenly had a problem with its limbs. The problem was with Yu Xuan's horse. Yin Yi's horse was fine. It just needed to drink water and rest.
Yin Yi and Yu Xuan each led their horses to a shady place to rest. Yin Yi asked Yu Xuan to find a water source so that he could get some water back while he stayed behind to take care of the horse and Chao Yan in the carriage.
Yu Xuan went for a while before Chao Yan opened the curtain and slowly got out of the car.
Seeing that she was fine, Yin Yi could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
After all that had happened, she was still able to walk even though she had not eaten or drunk for a long time. It was really hard to tell that she, who looked slender, had such ability.
Chao Yan slowly walked in front of him and said timidly,""Excuse me, may I leave for a moment?”
"Leave for a while?" Yin Yi's tone was gentle. In contrast to her previous attitude of resisting him, Chaoyan's current timid appearance was really lovable!
" I…" Chao Yan lowered her head in embarrassment."I need to use the toilet, I want to find a place…"
"Alright, hurry up and come back, okay?”Yin Yi had no reason to reject her. She was a girl, after all. She couldn't do that kind of thing in a place where everyone could see!
"I know." Chao Yan gave him a grateful glance and quickly left his sight.
Yin Yi leaned against the tree trunk and watched her leave.
She seemed to have gone too far. This girl couldn't be thinking of escaping, right?
Forget it, let her be. Was he afraid that she would escape? She was just a weak woman without any strength. How far could she escape?
Just as Chao Yan left, Yu Xuan returned from the opposite direction.
Yu Xuan brought back a water bag filled with water. After letting the two horses drink, Yu Xuan raised his question.
" Young Master, there's only one horse that can run now. There's still a long way to go from Yellowstone Town. The journey back…"
"Yes." Yin Yi pondered for a while." If your horse really can't run, then we'll have to give up on this carriage. I'll take her back first. You stay here. I'll send someone to pick you up.”
Yu Xuan nodded. "It seems like this is the only way." He glanced at Yin Yi and asked carefully,""Young Master, are you really going to bring that lady back to the residence?”
"So what if I am?"
Yu Xuan shrugged." No, I just thought that those girls in the residence might cause another uproar.”
Every time Yin Yi brought back a new lover, those old lovers would be jealous and cause trouble in the residence. After a period of time, the new love became the old love. When another new love appeared, it was inevitable that the past would repeat itself, and the residence would be in chaos again.
Yin Yi smiled and did not answer Yu Xuan's question. It seemed that the culprit was enjoying the storm he had caused!
Sigh, his master was good in everything, but he was a little dissolute, making many girls miss him and cry for him.
Yu Xuan sighed in his heart and asked,"Young Master, do you like that girl very much?”
"Yes." Chao Yan's beautiful face suddenly appeared in Yin Yi's mind. He chuckled and said,""If she was a little more obedient, I would like her even more.”
Yu Xuan nodded." Young Master must like her. I've never seen a girl more beautiful than her in my life!”
"So, Luo, you said that my three hundred thousand taels were worth it!" Yin Yi couldn't help but feel happy for his luck.
"Yes, I am!"
The master and servant were talking one after another. Unknowingly, they were already some distance away from the place where the horses were tied.
The two of them continued to talk about Chao Yan, but they did not know that Chao Yan, who had already returned, was secretly playing tricks behind their backs. By the time they realized it, it was already too late.
He didn't expect that the seemingly weak Chao Yan would actually not lose to an ordinary man when riding a horse. Under the astonished gazes of the two, Chao Yan rode Yin Yi's beloved horse and sped forward.
"Stop right there!" Yin Yi immediately used his lightness skill to chase after her.
Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. Even if his lightness skill could definitely be compared to the top experts in the current martial arts world, it was still not a match for the agile legs of his beloved horse.
He could only watch as the beautiful woman's back disappeared before his eyes.
Unable to catch up to her, the remaining horses could not run fast either. Yin Yi could only let her escape from his side.
Chao Yan looked at the scene in front of her with her blurry eyes.
This was…She saw some simple furniture. It was a narrow and simple room, and she was lying on a hard bed. At this moment, she was in a private house.
Why was she here?
She struggled to prop up her weak body and wanted to get out of bed, but she had no choice but to sit back on the bed because of her dizziness.
"Ah, Miss, you're awake!" A woman who had just stepped into the house said with concern.
Chao Yan looked at the woman who looked to be in her forties and reached out her rough hand to caress her forehead.
"Thank God, I don't have a fever anymore.”The woman said as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden.
"Aunty…"
"Just call me Aunt Ruan. That's what the people around here call me.”Auntie Ruan's concerned gaze scanned Chao Yan's pale face. "Miss, how do you feel? Is there any place on your body that still hurts?”
Hearing Aunt Ruan's words, Chao Yan suddenly felt her entire body ache. Only then did she realize that her body was covered in injuries. Although it was not to the extent that it hurt her heart and lungs, it was enough to make her feel weak all over, and cold sweat flowed down her forehead.
"I'm fine." She tried her best to overcome the discomfort in her body and smiled weakly at Aunt Ruan." Aunt Ruan, it was you who saved me, right?”
"It's not me. It's my husband and my son.”Aunt Ruan said. "A few days ago, they found you lying near my field. You were injured and unconscious, so they brought you back.”
As Chaoyan listened to Aunt Ruan's words, her memories from before gradually became clear.
She remembered that after she snatched Yin Yi's horse from him, she had been riding with all her might, day and night, trying to escape from Yin Yi.
She did not rest, and neither did the horse. In a trance, she finally fell off the horse after riding for a few days and nights. She lost consciousness and had no idea what happened after that.
However, she could not remember if her name was Chaoyan or anything related to her before she fell into the water. She had no impression of her.
"Little girl, what's your name?”Auntie Ruan smiled at Chaoyan.
"I…I'm Chaoyan."
"Chaoyan, that's a nice name.”Auntie Ruan, who was illiterate, obviously didn't know which Chao and which Yan it was, but it sounded pretty good.
"By the way, I'll go call my husband and my son. You've been unconscious all this time, and they're all very concerned about you.”
Auntie Ruan went inside to call for help.
After a while, Chao Yan saw an old man and a young man walk out from inside.
"The little girl is awake!" Aunt Ruan's husband was also a small and thin person.
"Are you alright now? Do you want to drink water or eat something to fill your stomach?”Uncle Ruan asked lovingly.
Chao Yan's eyes couldn't help but tear up. She said gratefully,"Uncle, Auntie, thank you for saving my life!”
"Young Lady is too polite. Saving a life is the duty of a person, why do you need to thank me? The most important thing now is to recuperate first.”
This must be Uncle Ruan and Auntie Ruan's son! Chao Yan looked curiously at the young man who was talking to her.
He looked very young, at most in his early twenties. Chao Yan was curious because this person looked refined and fair. He spoke well and was full of books. He looked like a scholar and really did not look like a child from a farm.
"Chaoyan, this is my son, Ruan Qinglin. He's the first scholar in the history of our Phoenix Village!”Speaking of her precious son, Aunt Ruan's face was full of pride.
Chao Yan nodded. So he was really a scholar, and he had even passed the Elementary Scholar exam. With such an outstanding son, it was no wonder that Aunt Ruan was so happy to have a son.
"Mother, you will be laughed at if you flaunt like this.”
Ruan Qinglin shrugged at Chao Yan, as if he was saying that he couldn't do anything to his mother, which made Chao Yan smile knowingly.
Chao Yan's smile lit up the room instantly. The family of three sighed in their hearts at the same time. This was the so-called 'people are more delicate than flowers'!
"Chaoyan, why did you faint there?" Ruan Qinglin asked.
" I…" Chao Yan bit her lip, looking troubled.
What should she say? What could she say? Her memory was blank so far, and she had no way of telling him.
"Chaoyan, what's wrong?" Auntie Ruan sat beside Chao Yan and touched her hand."What are you worried about? Don't be afraid. We're here. We'll help you.”
"Auntie." Tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at Aunt Ruan gratefully, but she still couldn't say it.
Seeing Chaoyan's troubled expression, Ruan Qinglin thought that she might have something to hide. "Mother, Chaoyan just woke up. We can talk about it later. I think Chaoyan is hungry too. Go and help Chaoyan get something to eat!”
"That's right, why didn't I think of that?" Auntie Ruan exclaimed.”She smiled at Chao Yan in embarrassment.
"Look at this old fool. I forgot that you should be hungry! Come, tell me what you want to eat. I'll get it for you."”
"Thank you, you're so kind to me." Chao Yan was touched.”
As the saying goes," one who survives a great disaster will be blessed." The Ruan family might be God's compensation for her!
Looking at her family who had helped her so much, she had the courage to be reborn for the first time. In order not to let them down, she thought that she would work hard to survive in this unfamiliar environment.
In the blink of an eye, Chaoyan had been staying at the Ruan residence for ten days.
After a period of recuperation, her injuries were no longer a big deal, and her originally weak body had recovered to be no different from a normal person.
This was all thanks to the Ruan family's care for her. They took care of her as if she was part of the family, making her feel the warmth of family.
It was also because of the Ruan family's care that Chaoyan no longer held a grudge against her blank past. Now, she accepted the fact that she had lost her memory and no longer indulged in that blank past. She had thought it through!
No matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't remember who she was, couldn't remember her family, and couldn't remember everything that originally belonged to her. Instead of living in panic every day, it was better to cherish the happiness in front of him. It didn't matter whether her name was Chaoyan or not. What was important was that she was happy now. That was enough.
Her only concern was Yin Yi. She was afraid that Yin Yi would find her here.
She heard from Uncle Ruan that when they found her unconscious, they didn't see Yin Yi's horse nearby. She thought that the horse must have run away by itself or returned to Yin Yi's side.
She was worried that Yin Yi would follow this clue and come here. She was not afraid of being caught by Yin Yi, but she was afraid that she would implicate her family.
Therefore, she had already made up her mind that as soon as she recovered, she would bid farewell to the Ruan family.
Although it had been ten days and if Yin Yi wanted to find her, he should have come a long time ago. She should be at ease, but she didn't want to take the risk. The Ruan family treated her so well. She couldn't take the risk of letting them get hurt.
After lunch, Chao Yan wanted to tell everyone that she was leaving while everyone was around.
"Uncle Ruan, Aunt Ruan, Big Brother Ruan, I…I have something to tell you.”
Auntie Ruan did not notice the change in her expression. She smiled and said to Chaoyan,"What a coincidence, I have something to say to you too!”
"Oh?" Chao Yan noticed that the two elders were smiling."Uncle, Auntie, please tell me!”
"Father, Mother, what is it?”Ruan Qinglin also found it strange. He did not know why his parents were smiling so widely.
Auntie Ruan ignored her son. She held Chao Yan's hand and asked gently,""Chaoyan, how do you think we treat you?”
"Uncle and Auntie treat me very well. Sometimes, I even feel like I'm their daughter!" Chao Yan said from the bottom of her heart.
Auntie Ruan smiled happily. "Yes, you're beautiful and gentle. Anyone who sees you will like you.”
"That's right! That's right!" Uncle Ruan smiled and agreed.
Aunt Ruan continued," We really like you. If possible, we not only want to treat you as our daughter, but we also want you to be our daughter-in-law."”
Chaoyan and Ruan Qinglin were shocked by his words. Just as Chao Yan was stunned, Ruan Qinglin's dissatisfied voice suddenly sounded.
"Father, Mother, what are you doing?”
"Can't you tell?" Uncle Ruan glared at his son. "We're trying to matchmake you two!"
"Nosy!" Ruan Qinglin growled. "I don't need you to meddle in my own matters. How can I explain this to Chaoyan?”
"Child, what are you saying?”Aunt Ruan was angry at her son for speaking inappropriately. "Of course we will respect Chaoyan's opinion. Your father and I both know that we're out of our league for such a good girl like Chaoyan. If Chaoyan is willing, it's a blessing that fell from the sky!”
"Forget it, I won't talk to you guys anymore." Ruan Qinglin waved his hand impatiently.
This was the first time Chao Yan had seen him so frustrated.
"Chaoyan, tell me, are you willing?”Ruan Qinglin asked Chaoyan directly.
" Big Brother Ruan, I…" She was stunned and could not react in time.
Unable to get an answer from Chaoyan, Ruan Qinglin lost his patience and walked out of the house.
"I won't agree to this no matter what. You can give up on this idea!”After saying that, he left sulkily.#
