In the novel "Joy of Life," the protagonist wakes up at Li Chengze's residence.

Tao Jingyang looked at the food he had just received through alms-begging and picked out two pieces of pastry, eating them nonstop.

At the same time, she found that as her satiety level increased, she not only became more and more alert and perceptive, but also felt more energetic throughout her body.

After finishing the pastries, Tao Jingyang found two cucumbers. He washed them with water and started munching on them.

And it's incredibly fast.

Xie Bi'an, who was outside, had long since changed from having his back to the kitchen to facing it.

This operation was actually quite perplexing to Xie Bi'an.

Girl, are you really that hungry?

Just then, the pot was ready, and several servants came over carrying the pot, standing next to Xie Bi'an with their heads bowed, making a silent request for instructions.

Xie Bi'an looked at Tao Jingyang, who was about to nibble on a cucumber, and finally spoke up: "Miss, aren't you leaving?"

His expression remained normal when he was being questioned, but there was something unusual in his eyes.

There are quite a few strange people in Kyoto, but they are not actually very common.

"Let's go, let's go." Tao Jingyang still didn't put down the cucumber, munching on it as he spoke.

"Hey bro, what's your name?" Tao Jingyang finished eating his cucumber and jogged over to Xie Bi'an to strike up a conversation.

"Xie Bi'an."

"Oh, your name... is quite nice, it sounds auspicious."

Xie Bian: “…”

Xie Bi'an was silent for a moment, then asked, "You remembered something?"

While speaking, he observed whether Tao Jingyang's expression changed.

"It's hard to describe. I remember, but I don't know where I came from or where I'm going."

But while they have no memory of it, they do know what they can and cannot eat, and even know that they need to wear shoes when they get out of bed.

Xie Bian: “…”

Seeing that they were almost at the main hall, Tao Jingyang stopped talking, regardless of whether the man believed him or not.

Even as he walked, Tao Jingyang didn't forget to experiment with his body's "new skills."

[It seems to be more than just sharp hearing and eyesight.] Tao Jingyang thought to himself, but he couldn't really find anything else unusual.

Li Chengze had finished reading the three memorials inside the hall before the pot was finally served.

Seeing Tao Jingyang enter with Xie Bi'an, Li Chengze spoke up:

"Hey, young lady, why are you out of bed so soon after waking up? Are you feeling any better?"

Tao Jingyang looked at Li Chengze, who had changed into a light yellow, narrow-waisted casual outfit and seemed to be a very peaceful person.

She didn't stare at Li Chengze for too long, thinking to herself: [This Li Chengze does look harmless. If he were to put on a more careful act, he could even resemble a bodhisattva.]

But his heart, deep inside, had long been stained black by the abyss-like quagmire of the royal court.

It's okay, it'll get whiter after washing.

Tao Jingyang coughed twice and put on a friendly smile: "I feel much better, thank you for taking care of me, Your Highness."

Li Chengze stared into her eyes, his thoughts unreadable: "Sit down."

"I don't know if these dishes are your favorites. If there's anything else you'd like to eat, please feel free to ask. Don't be shy."

Li Chengze spoke in a friendly tone, and picked up a piece of green vegetable to eat first.

Tao Jingyang remained silent and continued his eating.

While eating, I pondered what had happened after I finished eating, when my hearing and vision suddenly became sharp.

While the two were eating, Li Chengze was also observing Tao Jingyang.

They devoured everything in a whirlwind, as if they hadn't thought about anything other than eating.

Unfathomable, its origins unknown.

Just keep raising her like this? No, why would I raise her?

Is this person truly suffering from amnesia or faking it...? (Pondering deeply)

We need to think of a way to scam them.

If it's useless after two days, just kill it.
