Hui Yin had barely peeled her eyelids open when she saw a pair of round eyes hovering two inches above her, making a person feel very surprised.

"Ah!"

In complete reflex, she swung up her hand and hit the face that nearly gave her a heart attack.

The man she hit was pushed off the bed and into the ground, where he covered his cheek with his left hand. The red imprint of her palm was visible, and the eyes that stared at her were filled with grievances.

This wasn't what caught Hui Yin's eyes though. The man she slapped was wearing tight-fitting sweats, revealing his sculpture-like body. It was obvious at first glance that they were several sizes too small for him. The cloth clung to his skin, highlighting his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and...uh...Hui Yin's gaze went down and abruptly looked away.

She quickly recognized that those were her clothes! That kind of bright pink color that was very offending to the eyes...what else could it be but the sweats outfit she managed to buy with a sixty-percent discount in the supermarket?

Seeing that, Hui Yin understood what moment in the past did she go back to.

Ignoring his wounded look, she jumped out of the bed and grabbed a coat hanging from her closet. Putting it on, she opened the door.

She needed to quickly go to the police station and report a missing person!

"Where are you going?"

Lu Shen scrambled from the floor in a panic and grabbed onto her arm. "You said you wouldn't leave me!"

Hui Yin looked at the lost little boy look in his eyes and said, "I need to report you as a missing person to the police."

At her words, he looked absolutely terrified. He shook his head hard.

"No police! I don't want the police!"

Hui Yin didn't budge. Judging by his clothes, she had only picked him up from the streets a few hours ago. Due to his insistence in her past life, she didn't pursue the matter and didn't report this incident to the police. Now that she knew his identity, the police wouldn't certainly hurt him!

"Of course we need to report you to the police. If I don't, wouldn't I get sued in the civil court for harboring a runaway?"

He shook his head again.

"No police!" he insisted.

Under the shaft of sunlight coming from the open door, Lu Shen looked truly pitiful. He was taller than her, but his back was hunched as if he was trying to make himself look small. There were bruises and unhealed cuts all over his face.

"The police won't hurt you, I promise. They're very good people."

Hui Yin turned slightly impatient. This was the initial moment when her life started intersecting with his. If she cuts off their relationship to each other at this point, she had a chance to be free. Not to mention, she still needed to find the culprit!

Yue Lao said that only at the time of the accident will the culprit appear. As Lu Shen's soul was her anchor, she went back to the time when they were already living together. Who knows how many days had already passed after his accident? She didn't have any time to waste.

Hui Yin stepped out of the door and Lu Shen scuttled after her. She pushed him back into the dingy apartment.

"No, you stay here! Your clothes..." Hui Yin's eyes involuntary targeted his crotch again and her cheeks flushed, "...are too inappropriate!"

Lu Shen pulled on her clothes. "I want to come, I don't want to be alone!"

Ptui!

Hui Yin nearly puked out blood. If she hadn't experienced this in her previous life, she would have never believed that this person was the same man she knew from the present time. The difference before and after he got his memories was too big!
