Song Lan's expression instantly turned serious.

It truly is Yun City, with North-South Avenue and the Hai River and Lakeside.

The person who saved Grandpa...

Song Lan turned her head sharply to look at Jiang Mingxi.

Jiang Mingxi looked at the man from the primitive tribe opposite her with a puzzled expression. However, her initial question remained unanswered. "So, how did we meet on that sunny day amidst the heavy snowfall?"

The men of the primitive tribe beat their chests and stamped their feet, then flung their hands away.

You are heartless!

Jiang Mingxi:...

[Hahahaha, you're heartless, you're cold-blooded, you're being unreasonable!]

[You're the heartless one, you're the cold-blooded one, you're the one being unreasonable.]

Jiang Mingxi's eye twitched, and she asked weakly, "How could I have been so heartless back then?"

The man from the primitive tribe said indignantly, "Have you forgotten everything? Have you forgotten our vows of eternal love? Have you forgotten that you promised to watch the stars and the moon with me, your Lao Gong!"

One moment she was still preoccupied with wondering who her grandfather's savior was, and the next Song Lan grabbed Jiang Mingxi's waist, asserting her ownership.

[I feel so sorry for Song Lan. Jiang Mingxi's husband is right in front of her, but Song Lan still won't let go.]

[ Song Lan's first relationship has resulted in encountering such an utterly despicable person; she's speechless.]

[...]

I always felt things weren't as we thought.

[The facts are clear: this man has claimed to be Jiang Mingxi's husband several times! If he's still trying to deny it, he'll regret it. If there's any chance of this happening, I'll eat shit live on air!]

[I'm just curious, he was Jiang Mingxi's husband back then, the two of them who swore eternal love, so why is he now living in a primitive tribe?]

The viewers in the live chat were curious, Jiang Mingxi was even more curious.

I'm so curious I'm ready to wear Huggies diapers.

So, how exactly did we meet?

The man gritted his teeth, his face filled with grief and indignation as if he were looking at a heartless scoundrel. He reached out to grab Jiang Mingxi's hand, "You scumbag! You've forgotten everything—our past, our vows! You've forgotten everything! Come home with me! Go to bed, and I'll make you remember everything, little by little!"

Song Lan was immediately shocked.

Go to bed?

Jiang Mingxi was horrified and refused, saying, "I have a boyfriend!"

The man gave Song Lan a disdainful look. "Then bring him along. Anyway, you said before that you'd bring your boyfriend here with you, so we can all go together."

Song Lan:...

Jiang Mingxi:...

[...]

[No, this really isn't what I think, is it? Three people together? Do you know what you're saying?]

The director also wanted to ask, do you know what you're saying?

If I keep talking, the live stream will get shut down again!

Aaaaaaah!

Do you know how hard it is for me to do a live stream?!

Why am I always on the verge of being shut down?

[Hahahaha, if we keep talking like this, the live stream will get banned again!]

[It's confirmed as " Survival Challenge "! Hahaha!]

[Still making jokes? You guys aren't saying a word about how messy Jiang Mingxi's private life is, are you?]

[I really don't understand why the production team is keeping this kind of scum around. They might ruin the whole show because of one rat poison!]

Is it really that hard to blacklist Jiang Mingxi? Get off the show like a public bus!

Amidst a barrage of insults in the live chat, Jiang Mingxi and Song Lan, with a mixture of doubt, apprehension, and the need to complete their mission, ultimately followed the man to the primitive tribe.

As soon as they entered the tribe, many people looked in their direction.

The children running around in the tribe greeted the man in a language that Jiang Mingxi and the others couldn't understand, while the man greeted the elderly and adults nearby in a language that they couldn't understand.

Every now and then, they would point out Jiang Mingxi to everyone.

Then everyone looked at Jiang Mingxi with surprise, and nodded with satisfaction.

[Laughing so hard, this scene looks just like my brother taking my sister-in-law back to our village!]

You know what, it's true.

So what exactly is their relationship? I'm so curious!

[Still not giving up? I've already told you this is Jiang Mingxi's husband. Once we're in bed, I'll see how Song Lan breaks down! I'm waiting!]

[Then you wait, I'll remember, you said you'd eat shit live on camera.]

After walking for about two minutes, the man pushed the cart into a courtyard.

As soon as I went inside, an elderly couple, both of East Asian appearance, came out.

Upon seeing Jiang Mingxi, the old lady's face was filled with shock. "You are... Jiang Mingxi?"

Jiang Mingxi was surprised to hear standard Mandarin spoken here, and quickly said, "Hello, Auntie, I'm Jiang Mingxi."

To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

She quickly shook Song Lan's hand, which she was holding, and said, "This is my boyfriend."

The old lady greeted Song Lan with a smile, then excitedly told Jiang Mingxi, " A-Wang always talks about you, about how you used to sleep together without clothes on."

Jiang Mingxi:...

Song Lan:...

[Hahahahahahaha!]

[Damn, I burst out laughing! I feel like Song Lan is about to die.]

[The direction is getting increasingly fantastical!]

After setting up the cart, A-Wang, a man from the primitive tribe, introduced his parents to Jiang Mingxi and Song Lan, saying, "These are my mom and dad."

After exchanging greetings, A-Wang led Jiang Mingxi and Song Lan into the house.

Although it's a primitive tribe, the beds inside are quite modern.

A-Wang took a photo album from the cabinet and tossed it to Jiang Mingxi, saying, "If you still can't remember me, I'll do some exercises with you in bed to help you recover your memory."

Song Lan:...

Jiang Mingxi:...

The two of them were practically under duress.

I dared not breathe too loudly, nor utter a single unnecessary word.

Quickly take the photo album.

The camera zooms in on the photo album.

It's a photo album with a vintage feel.

This photo album looks a lot like the one I used to use for my yearbook when I was in school.

[Yearbook, a name from long ago.]

[Wow! Is that Jiang Mingxi in the first picture? Oh my god, she's so young and cute! I want to pet her!]

[The picture below of Jiang Mingxi is also very pretty. Is that Jiang Mingxi? The little red dot on her forehead is so cute!]

The photo album was opened.

It's a layout of two photos, one above the other.

The first picture is a group photo of two children and a young woman. Behind them is a large iron gate with words written on it: --

Spring Radiance Orphanage.

After a close-up shot, the comments section exploded.

[Didn't they say Jiang Mingxi never stayed in an orphanage? But this says Spring Radiance Orphanage, doesn't it?]

[Yes, yes, the son of the former director of Spring Radiance Orphanage said in a live stream that Jiang Mingxi was not at the orphanage, and Jiang Mingxi's adoptive parents also said that Jiang Mingxi had never been to the orphanage. What does this mean?]

[Unless the person in the photo isn't Jiang Mingxi!]

[But it's obvious that, although she's young—around seven or eight years old—she's a miniature version of the current Jiang Mingxi; you can recognize her at a glance!]

[Holy crap, who's lying?!]

I knew there would be a plot twist!

The barrage of comments reached a fever pitch. On camera, Song Lan stared at the young Jiang Mingxi, unable to look away. Despite the undeniable certainty, it seemed everyone looking at the photo couldn't escape a certain fate, prompting her to ask, "Is this you as a child?"
