The memories Di Jiu gained of his past life were mainly focused on language and what kind of world he was in, and the memories he gained of many of the people and events around him were very vague. He wasn’t really sure if he liked or hated Shen Ziyou in his past life either, and could only carry it over in vague terms.
“Fine then, An Lang and I have burnt incense, why don’t you come back to the hotel with us.” Hearing that it wasn’t about Shen Ziyue, Liang Xi instantly relaxed.
Liang Xi was a very enthusiastic high school cla*smate, this was the impression that Liang Xi had left on Di Jiu.
……
It was more than an hour’s drive from the Forgotten River Temple to the hotel in the county where Liang Xi was staying. Because Di Jiu looked like a homeless man, he did attract a lot of attention in the car.
Liang Xi was no stranger to Di Zimmer, not only because Di Zimmer and she were high school cla*smates, but also because she had been to Shen Ziyue and Di Zimmer’s wedding two years ago.
Although Liang Xi did not know why such an outstanding Shen Ziyou wanted to marry Di Zimmer, she was not surprised that Di Zimmer and Shen Ziyou had divorced. No matter what the reason for their marriage, it would be strange if they did not divorce.
What made Liang Xi feel a bit strange was that Di Zimo had changed a lot compared to before.
The previous Di Zimo gave people the impression that he was somewhat uncommunicative and introverted and weak. And today, after riding over with Di Zimo in the car for two hours, Di Zimo asked questions without stopping, as if he had nothing to say, or as if he hadn’t spoken to anyone for a long time and wanted to say everything all at once.
“Di Zimmer, what do you need from me?” After returning to the True Garden Hotel, Liang Xi asked straight to the point, she couldn’t even stand Di Jiu talking too much, it was just too long-winded, could a marriage change make a person’s personality change so much?
“You guys talk, I’ll go and help Brother Zimo buy some clothes.” An Lang, who was with Liang Xi, took the initiative to say, seemingly not too keen on interfering in Di Jiu and Liang Xi’s conversation.
Di Jiu smiled, “Thank you An Lang, I’ll go buy the clothes myself later.”
“Di Zimmer, I really didn’t expect you to change so much now. An Lang is not a junior, he’s in the computer science department, he’s in his second year of study, so he’s our senior. You’d better say what you need me to help you with, maybe I can’t help at all.” Liang Xi said with a white look at Di Jiu.
Earlier she had some sympathy for Di Jiu, but now that she had come to the hotel with Di Jiu in the car, she could see clearly that this Di Jiu definitely did not need her sympathy, nor did he have any semblance of mental depression.
Di Jiu didn’t care at all and continued, “Liang Xi, I’ll change my name to Di Jiu from now on, the name Di Zimmer represents my past and past lives. Di Jiu is my present life, my fresh start.”
“Okay, Di Jiu, what exactly do you want me to help you with?” Liang Xi sighed somewhat helplessly and returned to her past life and present life. In her opinion, not trying would always be the same.
Di Jiu smiled, “As you know, I recently went on a trip outside, only once I accidentally fell on my head in a dangerous place, although I recovered a small life, a lot of my memories are a bit blurred. For example, I almost didn’t recognise you when I saw you just now, now can you talk to me briefly about it.”
“Ah ……” Liang Xi and An Lang let out a startled ah at the same time, both of them were stunned by Di Jiu’s words.
It was only after a while that Liang Xi said with some uncertainty, “No wonder I feel that you are a bit different from before, so it is like this, are you alright, do you want to go to the hospital for another check up?”
Di Jiu smiled to himself, “You know, going to the hospital now is all about money, I don’t have that kind of money, besides it’s not bad now, at least I’ve forgotten something I wasn’t supposed to remember. It’s all good for me, and for some people too.”
Seeming to agree somewhat with Di Jiu’s words, Liang Xi nodded unconsciously, “What do you need me to tell you?”
“What you can know about me, feel free to tell me. It doesn’t matter, I let it go a long time ago, what’s past is past, the reason why I want you to talk about it is also because I want to prove that I have completely let it go.” Di Jiu’s words were always ambiguous.
The good thing is that Liang Xi didn’t care about Di Jiu’s tone and said with a sigh, “I only went to high school with you for two years, and what I know is very limited. You transferred to our cla*s in your soph*more year, and then continued until you graduated in your senior year. You were quiet at school, or introverted, I guess, and didn’t talk as much as you do now.
After graduation, I went to university, and you left school when you didn’t get in. It wasn’t until two years ago that I went to Shen Ziyu’s wedding and learned that it was you, my high school cla*smate, who was married to Shen Ziyu. Then later, I heard that Shen Ziyu got divorced, and then there was no news of you ……”
The first time I saw you, I was a little puzzled, but I looked at Di Jiu. Why did Di Jiu not study again after he failed the university entrance exam? At the same time she also remembered that Di Jiu had been mysterious since she had been cla*smates with him, at least she didn’t know where Di Jiu came from, what his family did and what his parents were.
Di Jiu touched his nose, he hadn’t thought that he and Liang Xi were just someone who had barely been cla*smates for two years. According to what Liang Xi said, that could only be said to be slightly more familiar than a pa*serby.
As for the information he wanted, that was not at all obtained.
“Thank you, Liang Xi.” Di Jiu stood up.
“Are you planning to go back to Luojin?” Seeing that Di Jiu stood up so dryly, Liang Xi couldn’t help but ask one more question.
Di Jiu stretched his back and smiled, “Yes, let’s go back to Luojin first, it’s better than wandering outside.”
Living in Luojin he knew, there was a rent slip inside his wallet, and the address on it was Luojin’s.
“Di Zi …… Di Jiu …… I think you’re a little sunnier now than you were before, the past is the past, don’t think too much about it.” Liang Xi could not help but persuade a sentence.
Di Jiu harrumphed and said, “Yeah, dying eggs towards the top, it’s all like this, what else do I have to be afraid of. Going down in decadence just makes me hate people freely.”
“So, do you have any plans?”
“I’ve learned a bit about medicinal herbs from a herb picker these past few years, and I’m going to see if I can find a job in that field. Thank you for bringing me back this time.” After Di Jiu said these words, he was already walking out of Liang Xi’s room.
Revenge was a long way off, first he had to survive on his own. Yu Jianfu had given him a business card, so if he couldn’t, he would go to Lin Chuan Ai Bo Hospital and find a job. Before that, he went to Luojin where he lived himself.
……
It took more than four hours by bus from the forgetful county station to Luojin, and despite Di Jiu’s slightly vague memories, when he entered Luojin, he sighed in his heart that compared to Pearl City, there were simply too many people in Luojin.
Not only were there a lot of people, but it was also extremely prosperous. If he had to say that it was not as good as Pearl City, it was that Luojin did not have all kinds of flying machines, perhaps the level of technology here was a little bit worse than Pearl City.
Di Jiu fished out a folded rent payment slip, the address on it was No. 601, Lane 22, Lane 726, Xuehu Road, Wuchuan District, Luojin. Because there was also a name Di Zimmer, making Di Jiu sure that this address should be the place where he lived in his previous life.
The sixth floor was the top floor, and as soon as the door was opened Di Jiu smelled a faint musty smell. When he looked up, he saw that the ceiling was soaked with rainwater, so the waterproofing of this penthouse was not very good.
Whether it was leaking or not Di Jiu didn’t even care about it, the first thing he did was to clean himself thoroughly and then went back to sleep.
From digging up the grey stone, to a golden lightning bolt helping him change his body, then hearing the bad news about the Di family from Qu Xiaoshu, then escaping into the void and coming to this place ……
Throughout the whole process, Di Jiu’s spirit was tense all the time. It was in Yu Jianfu’s car and outside the Forgotten River Temple that he was only half asleep, and it was only now that he was truly considered to have some security.
