The Demon King's heir
CHAPTRE. 40 - LUN FAMILY

Shu Ye washed the glutinous rice placed in a wooden bucket. When he saw it, he felt like he remembered something. Like the seeds of memory drowning in water then, someone stirred them up to make everything fall apart. Suddenly, he felt a tremendous headache but, it did not make him lose consciousness.

”Why do I always try to remember it?” inner Shu Ye while holding her head. ”... Uncle Luu said that the leader of the Lun family named Lun Heiyun is my father. My mother was a physician named Xuanlu. He said it all but I can never remember. Is it just my memory that is short?”

Uhhh!

In the end Shu Ye stopped thinking about it and chose to continue her work. He really knows how to make a sticky rice cake with bamboo leaf wrap. He himself also did not know why he could make it this easy and even Shin Yixuan herself could never make it. Even so, he could not make other dishes or tidy up something.

After he finished making it, he immediately delivered it to Shin Yixuan's room. Using only a small amount of glutinous rice left in a cauldron, he could make seven glutinous cakes of the same size. ”... Yixi! I brought you the food you wanted.” Shu Ye said as she knocked on the door and after that she walked in without waiting for an answer.

When he had just entered it, he saw Shin Yixuan who was curled up on the table sitting down and asleep there. Instantly, he felt astonished because he could not use any good means to get him to sleep properly. ”... Haah, he never felt at home sleeping on his bed huh?” murmured Shu Ye while sighing.

Shu Ye walked over to Shin Yixuan. Even though he was curled up on the table, it seemed that he enjoyed his sleep a lot while everyone preferred to straighten his legs and body on a soft mattress.

”What is he doing right now? Why is the table so messy?” muttered Shu Ye who noticed and placed her plate on the table. He took one of the papers and read it a little.

In the paper it contains a writing about the leader of the Lun family named Lun Heiyun. He was a proud and greedy leader. He even planned to take control of some small territories and make them an army that never betrayed him. Lun Heiyun had been planning this ever since the Shin family was massacred all-out by members of his own family even before he was appointed leader.

”What does it do by reading secret papers like this?” inner Shu Ye who looked surprised as she looked at him. Then, shortly after he saw her, Shin Yixuan finally woke up again after he felt that someone was standing nearby.

In the same position, Shin Yixuan tried to sit up straight and stare towards Shu Ye who was already sitting in front of her by holding the same piece of paper. ”... You've been here since?” asked Shin Yixuan while rubbing her eyes.

Shu Ye nodded and gave her a plate of sticky rice cake that she had brought earlier. ”... Eat!” he said with a cuek.

Shin Yixuan who saw him looked surprised as well as amazed. His face immediately beamed as he looked at the glutinous cake that had been imagined in his mind. ”... You really made it yourself? For me?” asked Shin Yixuan while looking at her with the same expression.

Shu Ye turned her attention while folding her hands. ”... Sure was! You think there are still people selling things like this?” the answer.

”Thank you.” said Shin Yixuan while eating her cake. And when the cake was in his mouth, it was like going back to his past. It felt so sweet and soft as he chewed it. It was similar to the sticky rice cake that the old lady had given him.

Shu Ye looked at him in surprise and asked, ”Food like this is so easy to make and you can't cook it?”

Shin Yixuan directly shook her head. ”... Mom never made it so, I don't know what it's like.” she replied.

”Huh? He liked? This is the first time anyone has liked my cooking. But, thank God he already looks fine.” Inner Shu Ye who is still staring at him. ”... By the way, why would a paper like this be in your hands? Isn't this very important to that person?”

Shin Yixuan was stunned and instantly stared at the several papers strewn across her desk. ”... This paper is no longer used. I asked grandma to give it to me because there was something that also made me curious.” replied Shin Yixuan. ”... You must have known that Lun Heiyun was your father but, you can't remember.”

Shu Ye was surprised and started to seriously talk about it. Shortly after, Shin Yixuan continued, ”... The Lun family has a special ability that is immune to poison. Moreover, their leader Lun Heiyun was a strong person because he used to study with a priestess named Bai Yunqing.”

”Hah? That person studied with Grandma Yunqing?! How can?!” asked Shu Ye who looked surprised as well as could not believe what was written there.

Shin Yixuan looked at him lazily and said, ”... I told you I asked Grandma to give it to me. It's only natural that he has it because grandma is his teacher.”

Shu Ye was speechless with her astonished-looking face. He simply did not believe and did not know how strong Bai Yunqing was to the point that Lun Heiyun was willing to study with him. He said he was a strong leader. That meant, his master was definitely stronger than his own disciple.

Shin Yixuan put the papers back on the table and asked, ”Didn't you have been curious about your own family before? You always wonder if Lun Heiyun really is your father and Xuanlu as your Mother. And to make sure, you even deliberately went to their residence to make me stung by a deadly scorpion.”

”I know all that and you don't have to bring it up either, right?” Shu Ye directly replied, ”... I am still curious about my own memory. Why all those memories could be erased in a few hours by leaving only my name. But, what's the point of all this paper?”

”No.” Short Shin Yixuan. ”... But I did know a few things. Your grandmother was Yu Yuanyi, a washing worker who loved children very much. While your grandfather was Lun Yuage who had led his family when he was 20 years old. But he was killed by Lun Heiyun when he was 45. The reason Lun Heiyun killed his own father was because he wanted his standing. Not long after he was 27 years old, she was married to her own personal physician named Xuanlu whereas Yu Yuanyi was left to be a housekeeper by him and even she always told him to take the firewood that was on Xieyu hill. After that, when you were five years old, the seventh Demon King came and instantly massacred them all out whereas back then, Yu Yuanyi was still on the Xieyu.” hill

”Can I trust with everything written here?” shu Ye asked who was paying attention to the papers.

”That's all your decision. And now I'm gonna ask you. After hearing all these stories, do you still want to get your memories back?” asked Shin Yixuan while looking at her seriously.
