Chapter 463: Chapter 463: Discovering Ji Wei lying at the entrance of the back mountain, her forehead wrapped with a cloth strip, her body covered with injuries

Jia Ming, feeling utterly confused by the question, replied defiantly, "Of course I know her, she’s Little sister Wei!"

With that, Jia Ming went over to grab Ji Wei’s hand, his face full of grievance. "Little sister Wei, you clearly said you’d bring me lollipops and toy cars when you came back. I sat by the courtyard gate every day waiting for you. I waited so long, but you never came. Did you start to dislike me and not want to play with me anymore?"

Ji Wei was equally stunned.

Faced with Jia Ming’s question, she found herself unable to answer.

She had lost all memories from before the age of ten and couldn’t recall this boy. However, she could guess that when she had stayed here in the past, she must have had a close connection with Grandma Li’s grandson.

Two children of similar age finding companionship was completely normal.

Seeing Jia Ming’s towering figure but childlike demeanor, Ji Wei suddenly felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. "I’m sorry, I forgot. I didn’t bring lollipops, but I brought other things. Would you like to try them?"

Jia Ming looked perplexed by Ji Wei’s words, seemingly unable to fully grasp their meaning.

Ji Wei, however, directly opened her luggage and took out various snacks like chips, chocolates, and biscuits. Jia Ming’s eyes lit up at the colorful packaging and, overjoyed, reached out to grab them at once.

"Jia Ming, those are for the guests..." Grandma Li tried to stop him, but Ji Wei signaled her with a glance not to interfere.

Hugging a heap of snacks, Jia Ming cheerfully dashed back into the house.

"Sorry to trouble you," Grandma Li said, slightly embarrassed.

"Not at all. My mom used to rely on your help a lot," Ji Wei replied.

Grandma Li froze, studied her closely again, and finally asked tremulously, "Are you really Miss Wanfei’s daughter?"

"Yes, Wanfei is my mother," Ji Wei confirmed with a sincere nod.

Grandma Li was deeply moved. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes, and she clasped Ji Wei’s hands tightly. "Little Wei, come, come, come, hurry inside and sit."

After ushering them inside, Grandma Li served tea and poured water, even bringing out roasted pumpkin seeds she had personally made. "Try these! You and Jia Ming used to sneak some when you were little!"

When she was little... What kind of life had she and her mother lived here back then?

Ji Wei stared off, lost in thought.

"Oh, my forgetfulness! You’re a young lady of wealth now; how could our rustic snacks possibly appeal to you?" Grandma Li said awkwardly upon noticing that Ji Wei hadn’t reached for the seeds.

As she was about to take them away, Ji Wei quickly grabbed a handful and held them in her palm, smiling. "I like them quite a bit. It’s just that I don’t really remember much about my childhood, so..."

Grandma Li’s hand froze mid-motion. She looked at Ji Wei’s eyes with an undercurrent of sympathy.

It turned out Ji Wei had lost her memory after suffering a severe injury back then.

Grandma Li vividly remembered the events of that year.

By then, Ji Wei was already a young heiress, but she suddenly reappeared at their house, saying her mother had gone missing and she had come to look for her.

Seeing how devastated she was, crying about Wanfei’s disappearance, Grandma Li had been overcome with worry as well. She rushed to the local shop in the village to call the Ji Family.

However, by the time she returned after making the call, Little Wei was nowhere to be found.

The whole village mobilized to search, and finally, on the morning of the third day, they discovered Ji Wei lying at the entrance to the mountains. Her forehead was wrapped in bandages, and her body was covered in injuries.

Ji Yunli arrived soon after and immediately took Ji Wei back to Rongcheng for treatment.

A few days after Ji Wei left, a villager found the corpse of Kong Ergou, the local troublemaker, deep in the mountains.

And so, ten years passed.

During that time, the Li family and the Ji Family had completely lost contact. They knew nothing about Ji Wei’s condition after being taken away, nor had they any idea that Wanfei was no longer alive.
