Qi Yue turned to look at Gu Bai innocently, pretending to be silly, "Huh? What was that?"
  
  "Quan Er," Gu Bai reminded, looking straight at him. "You yelled that before.... calling me that name, you are who and who told you?"
  
  "..." Qi Yue blinked and began to tremble.
  
  He and Gu Bai had lived together for many years and he knew more about him than the average person. Gu Bai's family was very large and had many branches. The older generation liked to use numbers to rank the kids according to their birth, and the words used by each generation was different. Gu Bai's paternal grandmother used "Mao", and the division was called Da Mao and Er Mao. Gu Bai's generation used "Quan". Of course this was for boys. Girls generally took the double names such as Nan Nan or Tuan Tuan and so on.
  
  Gu Bai ranked second in the overall ranking, so the elders in his family called him Quan Er.
  
  It was convenient to name them like this. He has been called that only by his family at home. His teachers and classmates never knew this name and his parents naturally don't wouldn't call their son's cheesy name outside the house. When they're outside or with strangers, Gu Bai would be called Xiao Bai or Little Bai. Later, the older generation passed away, several family branches gradually moved away. During the fifth grade when Gu Bai was attending Primary School, There was basically no one who called him this name but it was Qi Yue .... only he knew because, when he was a child, he heard someone shouting "Quan Er" and felt it was a very good name to remember.
  
  But Gu Bai had already warned Qi Yue not to use this name outside among other people. Qi Yue understood that and he only used this name in private. He was a very trustworthy friend, never told others. Even though there were some people around them at that time who heard Qi Yue use that name, it was so long ago and they had already moved on. Those people had lost contact with them and no one would still remember the name.
  
  So far, the relatives of both sides have moved far away. The only one who knew that name was Xiao Ying, and she had inadvertently heard it. At that time, there was a bit of fear that Gu Bai would not be happy. After observing that Gu Bai was not unhappy, he was relieved.
  
  Once Xiao Ying curiously asked why she cant call him using that name anymore. Gu Bai said that he was called that when he was too young, he felt a little uncomfortable, so he didn't want to be called by that name again. It didn't matter now, but in addition to his loved ones and Little Yue, if someone called him like that, he would not agree to it. Xiao Yings face fell and ended up staying quiet.
  
  Of course, Qi Yue did not know about that conversation. He only understood two things at present: First, Gu Bai might already be suspecting that he was Qi Yue. This situation was too illusionary. Most people would not think of this one. The second thing was Gu Bai would think Qi Yue was a bad friend for not keeping the secret and telling another person his nickname (this is Qi Yue in Zhang Xiao Yuan's body).
  
  These two situations were not good for him.
  
  His buddy has been in love with him for so long. He couldn't pretend like he didn't hear it when he just heard it. Now it was too embarrassing, and what if this person started chasing him? If they couldn't get along in their relationship, they cannot be friends any longer and he cant accept that. He just had to keep quiet about it.
  
  If he choose the second one, he obviously has picked the death option. After he died, he still has to be unnamed. This was too bad. He was unlucky, he will also spur the tombstone of prayer. According to this person's personality, Gu Bai would never let this go easily. Eventually he will get the answer out from him.
  
  Therefore, he looked at Gu Bai sitting on the bed for a long time for a long time, and he didn't know what to say. He let the Yi Hang and the Taoist priests look awkward.
  
  Gu Bai looked at him, "How long do you have to think for the answer?"
  
  Qi Yue coughed, "You have to give me time to think. I have amnesia and I don't remember a lot of things. I vaguely remember that Qi Yue was a friend, maybe I have heard it from him before. That name," he explained patiently. "When I saw you wanted to hit me, I just said it in panic. I really can't think of it. Why don't you ask me this question once I regain my memory? Or I will take the initiative to find you, how is that?"
  
  Gu Bai did not answer, he was watching him silently.
  
  Qi Yue suddenly felt guilty, "I did not lie to you. I truly have amnesia. If you do not believe me, you can ask the nurse."
  
  Gu Bai looked at him for a few more minutes, got up and left, apparently not ready to talk.
  
  Qi Yue turned to look at his eyes, knowing that he would not let go of himself, and hurriedly said, "I remembered, I have a letter here, it was written for you." He secretly planned to write the letter. If he does play as Zheng Xiao Yuan, he could escape this lie! Hey!
  
  Gu Bai stopped for a moment, and turned and picked him up by the collar, "Where is the letter?"
  
  Qi Yue was shaken by him, and suddenly he had a headache, "Hey... let me go first..."
  
  Gu Bai threw him back on the bed, Will you tell me or not?"
Why cant his old friend be more gently??? Aah, fuck !!
Qi Yue was ruthlessly slammed into the bed, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This person has a very volatile nature and was quite impulsive too. With such little self-control, he was so easily provoked by a single sentence, showing Qi Yue how important he was to Gu Bai. But Qi Yue really couldn't reveal the truth. This was really getting more tangled by the minute.
  
  "The letter is in my bedroom, it was given to me before the operation." Once the operation word was out, they both could hear a "Oh!!!!" sound from Yi Hang and the Taoist. They both knew it was related to his past life.
  
  Qi Yue: "....."
  
  Gu Bai has his heart on the letter and he completely unwilling to pay any attention to them. He stared at Qi Yue, "You are not lying to me?"
"Why should I lie to you? I hope you can recognize his handwriting."
  
  Gu Bai nodded. "But there are a lot of people who share the same style words as he wrote."
  
  Qi Yue thought about it and after one moment, he said, "Even if the handwriting is alike, I still have a painting from his hand. It is his painting. There is his unique signature on it, he wanted to give it to you, and left it with me. Now will you believe it's real? Can you find a fake for that?"
  
  Gu Bai shook a little, "Give it to me!"
Qi Yue stubbornly said, "You have to wait for me to get dismissed."
  
  Gu Bai was not willing to wait for even a moment. He now wanted to know what was written on the letter. He stared at him, "Call your friends and let them bring it here."
  
  "They don't know where I am. They will say that they could not find it unless I'm going to take it myself," Qi Yue and looked at him sincerely. "Really, I will send it to you as soon as I am discharged from the hospital."
  
  "You can leave the hospital early."
  
  "No, Everything I need to use in the formalities is with my friend, and my head has bumped again, I won't be out for at least for a few days..." Qi Yue turned to look at his expression and hurriedly said, "Two days, I will give you two days and I will bring it to you."
  
  Gu Bai stared at him, and finally nodded with a compromise, and changed the topic, "How did you and Little Yue know each other?"
  
  Qi Yue smiled with joy, "Forgot."
  
  Gu Bai frowned a little, "How did you know that name?"
  
  "Forgot."
  
  "Why should he hand over the letter and the painting to you?"
  
  "Forgot."
  
  Gu Bai: "....."
  
  "I lost my memory," Qi Yue tone was quite guilty. "What... I will tell you when I can recall it."
  
  Gu Bai was silent for a while, and felt that it didn't make much sense for him to stay, and he got up and left. Qi Yue watched him go out and relaxed. Yi Hang rushed to shake his bed a little, sitting on the bed, watching him, "Your former friend?"
  
  Qi Yue nodded, feeling quite sad. He truly did not expect Gu Bai to have such feelings for his old self and when he found it out, it was too big an information for him to handle. He could not accept it for a while.
  
  "I see him....he seems to care about you, why don't you just recognize him?"
  
  "You have been speaking long to him," Qi Yue sighed a little, pointing to the Taoist. "How does he know about surgery? Was he also admitted in this hospital?"
"No, he went home for a nap and died in his sleep, I thought it was because he had really offended God, when he came to find you. At least that's what I told him!"
  
  Qi Yue nodded, "Listen carefully, don't reveal too much to him or God might really slaughter you."
  
  "You don't want him to know about you?" Yi Hang looked at him. "You must do good deeds. If you don't want to tell him ...then let me tell him."
  
  "......." Qi Yue asked the Taoist, "You're here simply because the last thing did not make you happy. You are looking for trouble, right?"
  
  Yi Hang immediately ran to stop Qi Yue. The Taoist was totally ungrateful and calmly replied, "I am virtuous."
  
  Qi Yue calmly pressed the button on the bed, and the nurse came. "What happened?"
  
  "He suddenly said that he is not this person, he is another person, but after a while he said will not say it," Qi Yue sighed, "Is his spirit really ok? How can I be sleeping in a ward with such a crazy person....I'm worried about my personal safety. "
  
  The little nurse hurriedly said, "I will discuss with the doctor, if you find this situation again...please inform us in time."
  
  "Okay." Qi Yue send her out, and then calmly look at someone.
  
  Taoist: "......."
  
  Yi Hang patted his shoulder and comforted, "Brother, you better watch yourself. This guy can easily send you to the psychiatric department."
  
  Taoist: "..."
  
  Qi Yue was dizzy, so after a simple drink of porridge, he fell asleep. The next day he packed up and prepared to escape again. He wanted to buy paint and immediately start on the painting. When the door suddenly opened, he was shocked. "What are you doing here?"
  
  Gu Bai said he came early he put things on the table, pulled the chair next to him and sat down to read the book. His head didn't lift, "I have nothing to do, so I just came to stay with you, wait until you are discharged from the hospital and then I can pick up my things. If you can recall anything about Little Yue during this period, please feel free to talk to me. If it is about other people, I am not interested in listening."
  
  Qi Yue: "= 口 ="
  
  For fuck's sake, buddy, you are guarding me, when can I even paint if you don't leave my side?? Those things? What joke are you doing?!
  
  "This is early, if you haven't eaten, then eat this," Gu Bai opened the book, the action is almost elegant. "Feel free to do your things, don't mind me."
  
  Qi Yue: "..."
  
  "There has been no news for one day and one night. The phone is still off, where has Xiao Yuan gone?" Ye Shui Chuan's face was anxious, and he paced around in the apartment. Suddenly he stopped and looked at Ning Xiao. "You didn't ask when he left?"
  
  Ning Xiao replied with a blank face, "I asked."
  
  "What did he say?"
  
  "You guess."
  
  "I don't know, what did he say?"
  
  "You guess!"
  
  "Aah fuck this!!" Ye Shui Chuan was finally angry. "This is not the time to play, okay? What should I fucking guess?!"
  
Ning Xiao: "......."
