"Dalin, you're finally here. Those two blind guys, I picked out a piece of clothing first, and they insist on taking it," the woman hurried over to affectionately cling to the man's arm and pouted as soon as she saw him arrive.

"Ah, Mr. Zuo, I'm really sorry. I've tried my best to help Miss Zhang, but the other party just doesn't agree," the manager immediately came over to show his hospitality.

"Damn it, I'm the boss here, you... you... you..."

He stuttered for a long time, looking at Xiaofan, but couldn't finish his sentence.

Xiaofan also looked at him somewhat puzzled. This face seemed somehow familiar.

"You, if you want to buy it, right, Manager Hao, give a 70% discount. Include a membership card, remember, it has to be a gold membership card."

The sudden change left everyone stunned.

Xiaofan, who originally thought he might need to use force to solve the problem, was baffled by the turn of events.

"Mad Zuo, what are you talking about? This clothing is..."

"Shut up. Get out of the way, um... Brother Ye, this woman hasn't seen much of the world, don't bother with her," the man angrily scolded his lover, then quickly came over to Xiaofan with a sheepish smile.

"Do you know me?" Xiaofan asked in confusion.

"Yes, yes... I work under Brother Cheng. Last time, I was with you to rescue the Miss. Are you... shopping with your girlfriend?" The man seemed to know about Xiaofan and Chen Mei'Er's relationship, but upon seeing Shen Zuimo standing next to Xiaofan, he quickly shifted the topic.

"So, we're on the same side. Sorry about that, my wife really likes this clothing; otherwise, she wouldn't fight with your girlfriend over it. Just charge the original price. By the way, this store is nice; the decoration is pretty good, so I won't smash it."

"Hey, hey... Manager Hao, did you hear that? Go settle the bill for Brother Ye."

"Oh, oh, oh."

Manager Hao immediately realized that the person in front of him was someone extraordinary after seeing Mad Zuo's attitude towards Xiaofan. Who was Mad Zuo? He was a boss under Chen Baicheng. In this area, there was no one he would speak to in such a deferential manner, yet he did just that to this seemingly unremarkable young man.

After swiping the card and settling the bill, Xiaofan nodded at Mad Zuo and then left the store with Shen Zuimo.

After sending off this big Buddha, Mad Zuo finally let out a long breath. At some point, cold sweat had soaked his back.

"Look at you, scared stiff, huh? Who is that kid?"

"Kid? Why don't you shut that filthy mouth of yours? This person is not someone you can mess with," Mad Zuo scolded angrily.

"Tch, so you're just a mad Zuo in name only. I misjudged you," the woman scoffed.

"Get lost if you want to leave, don't keep embarrassing me."

"Calm down, both of you. But, Brother Zuo, who exactly is Brother Ye?" Manager Hao came over to inquire.

"I don't know exactly who he is. I only know that if he goes crazy, I have to step aside. It's Brother Cheng's word: all of us, other than Brother Cheng, must listen to him whenever we meet him. Even when Brother Cheng retires soon and the Miss takes over, it'll still be Brother Ye who calls the shots."

'Gulp,' Manager Hao couldn't help but swallow heavily after hearing this. It turned out that his threat to smash the store wasn't just an idle boast.

"So what if that's the case? You keep calling him Brother Ye, but he doesn't even give you a look and can't even remember who you are," the woman complained again.

"What do you know? If it weren't for Brother Ye stepping forward back then, all those gold necklaces, rings, and bags on you would be in vain. All our brothers remember his good deeds. Many of them are waiting to have a drink with him when he comes back. Our Brother Cheng wanted to hand over the leader's spot to him, but he refused. Do you think he's like you, only seeing through biased eyes? Go."

You could say Mad Zuo was a well-known figure in Capital City, and this wasn't his first time meeting Xiaofan. But the aura Xiaofan emitted earlier really scared him. Fortunately, he declared his connection quickly. Otherwise, he would have received a thorough beating.

He happened to be involved in the operation to save Chen Mei'Er last time. The aura at that time — turning around was like a life-endangering action. If it had been him, it would have been disastrous.

In the meantime, Shen Zuimo cuddled with the shopping bag on the car, her action clearly showing how much she liked the piece of clothing. After all, she seemed reluctant to let it go.

"Wow, you really looked the part when you were putting on airs," Shen Zuimo remarked.

"Of course... hey, wait, I naturally have an imposing aura, all right? Otherwise, what do you think I was doing while you were gone?" Xiaofan replied with a grin.

"And before I left? What were you like then?"

"Just an ordinary student, passing out flyers, delivering food, and working part-time in bars as a waiter to buy you some nice clothes."

"Tch..."

Shen Zuimo couldn't really imagine such a scene. If it were true, it would surely be a very heartwarming scene.

What if, indeed, everything Xiaofan said was true.

"Hey, are we heading back now? We've already bought the clothes."

"Go back? I don't plan to go back tonight. What's so good about returning to that broken place?" Xiaofan pouted and stopped the car in front of a hair salon.

"What for?"

"Get a hair wash."

"I don't like it... I can wash it myself."

"Don't kid yourself, if I remember correctly, and if your physiological cycle is normal, your period should start the day after tomorrow. It's best not to get your head wet during those two days. Get a wash."

Is he serious? This guy even knows her physiological cycle? And he's right? Was there really nothing she kept hidden from him when they were together before she lost her memory? Was she just a dumb woman after losing her memory?

"Hi there, handsome and beautiful, do you want a haircut or just a wash?"

"Hmm? Wash her hair..."

"Okay, this way, lie down..."

"Hey, wait, isn't there a female to wash her hair?" Xiaofan became unhappy when he saw a man about to wash Shen Zuimo's hair.

"Sorry, the two girls are inside washing for other customers. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait..."

"What about her?" Xiaofan pointed to a woman in her thirties nearby.

"Oh, she's our chief stylist, she doesn't do hair washes..."

"Then I'll do it."

"Huh?"

"Huh what? I'll still pay afterward." Xiaofan said, rolling up his sleeves, washing his hands, and heading over to Shen Zuimo's side.

Shen Zuimo glanced at Ye Xiaofan and didn't say much more. After all, she'd already been coaxed into this, so whoever washed it was still just a wash.
