God Emperor Reborn: My Memory Erased

Jiangnan Region, Jianghai City.

It was just evening when he emerged from the train station. As he passed by the food market, Fang Yu bought a dressed chicken and two cans of beer, then ambled home.

His residence was in a dilapidated urban village, a two - storey house with a small courtyard. Fang Yu lived on the second floor, while a mother - daughter duo occupied the first floor.

The rent here was incredibly cheap, merely 500 yuan per month.

Upon arriving home, Fang Yu set up a barbecue grill in the courtyard and placed the chicken on it to roast.

Just as Fang Yu was applying sauce to the chicken, a girl with a schoolbag trotted into the courtyard.

"It smells so delicious, Brother Fang Yu. I could smell it from a long way off," the girl said, approaching Fang Yu and eyeing the chicken on the grill, her big eyes glistening with anticipation.

"Don't rush. There'll definitely be a share for you," Fang Yu replied.

"Brother Fang Yu is the kindest to me," the girl said cheerfully, before entering her home.

This girl was Yu Yueyue, a tenant on the first floor, who was in her first year of senior high school.

Moments later, Yu Yueyue came out again, carrying a small stool and sitting down beside Fang Yu.

"Brother Fang Yu, where have you been these past few days? My mom has gone back to our hometown recently, and I'm all alone here. It's so boring," Yu Yueyue said, propping her chin with her hands.

"An old friend passed away, so I went to pay my respects," Fang Yu answered truthfully.

"...I'm sorry. Please accept my sympathies," Yu Yueyue said softly, as if she'd done something wrong.

This friend of Fang Yu's must be around his age, and they must have been very close. It's so tragic that he passed away at such a young age.

However, Yu Yueyue noticed that there wasn't a hint of sorrow on Fang Yu's face. Instead, he was just staring at the juicy, sizzling chicken, gulping down his saliva.

"Ready!"

A few minutes later, Fang Yu picked up the roasted chicken, holding it in his hand as if the heat didn't bother him at all.

Fang Yu tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Yu Yueyue, then started devouring the rest of the chicken.

It was incredibly fragrant!

Thinking about it, it's quite absurd that someone who has been cultivating for nearly five thousand years still can't reach the state of Bigu, where one doesn't need to consume food, and still has to rely on grains to satisfy their hunger.

But Fang Yu had no alternative. He could choose not to eat, but he'd still feel hungry.

A long time ago, he was in such a low mood that he could barely bring himself to eat.

As a result, he went without food or drink for two months, yet still remained in good health. However, although his physical functions were normal, he felt an intense sense of hunger and thirst.

As long as these feelings of hunger and thirst persisted, Fang Yu had to eat and drink; otherwise, he'd feel extremely uncomfortable.

At night, Fang Yu sat on his bed, perusing the prescriptions Xia Xiuzhi had spent nearly twenty years writing, one by one.

These prescriptions represented the culmination of Xia Xiuzhi's life's work and his heart and soul.

Any single prescription was a treasure of inestimable value. If it were to be leaked, it would undoubtedly cause a sensation in the medical field.

"This kid even delved into prescriptions for enhancing male virility and nourishing the kidneys. He truly has surpassed his master," Fang Yu murmured to himself.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Just as Fang Yu was engrossed in the prescriptions, a series of loud knocks resounded downstairs.

"Old Yu, get out here! You still owe us 50,000 yuan in gambling debts. Do you think you can avoid paying by hiding?" a gruff voice bellowed.

With Fang Yu's sharp hearing, he could hear Yu Yueyue sobbing in the first - floor room.

This girl had mentioned that her mother had gone back to their hometown, so she was home alone these days.

"Open the door right now! If you don't, we'll tear this door down! When we catch you, we'll throw you to the dogs!" another voice roared.

"Bang!"

As they spoke, they started ramming the door.

"Yu Chengye has divorced my mom. It has nothing to do with us, and he's not here..." Yu Yueyue said, her voice choked with sobs.

"You say he's not here and we should just believe you? You're his daughter. He wouldn't leave you in trouble, would he?" The two men continued ramming the door.

"If you keep this up, I, I'll call the police!" Yu Yueyue cried out.

"You dare to call the police? Once we break this door down, we'll deal with you first!" one of the men threatened.

"Bang, bang, crack!"

The door was broken open.

The two fierce - looking debt - collectors entered the house and saw Yu Yueyue, who was so scared that her legs went weak and she slumped to the side.

The two men looked around and found that there was no one else in the house except Yu Yueyue.

"Wow, that old Yu could have such a beautiful daughter?" One man looked at Yu Yueyue on the ground, his eyes full of lust.

"I've got an idea. Since we can't find old Yu, we'll sell her. The money we get can be used to pay off his debt," the other man said.

"Don't rush. Before that, we can first... Hehe." The man squatted down, looking at the trembling Yu Yueyue, and reached out with an evil grin.

But before his hand could touch Yu Yueyue, he felt a huge force lift him up.

"Who are you!?" The other man shouted and tried to attack Fang Yu.

"Bang!"

The next second, the man let out a scream and was kicked flying by Fang Yu, landing in the courtyard.

The man held in Fang Yu's hand didn't even have a chance to speak. Fang Yu slapped him several times in a row and then threw him into the courtyard.

"Go find whoever owes you money. You have three seconds to get out of here right now," Fang Yu said coldly.

The two men were quickly beaten dizzy and realized how formidable Fang Yu was. Naturally, they didn't dare to stay any longer. They didn't even dare to utter any threats and scurried away in a panic.

Looking at Yu Yueyue, who was still trembling and crying on the ground, Fang Yu squatted down and said, "It's okay. I've driven them away."

Fang Yu held Yu Yueyue in his arms, and Yu Yueyue burst into even louder sobs.

It took Fang Yu quite a while to comfort Yu Yueyue, and after fixing the door of her house, he returned to the second floor.

To be honest, Fang Yu, who had lived for nearly five thousand years, had seen too much of everything, and his emotions had become rather indifferent.

For the misfortunes of many people, like Old Master Tang, he would choose to look on indifferently.

He would only selectively help those he had a connection with or those he found interesting.

It was late at night. Fang Yu lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and was about to go to sleep.

Just like not eating, Fang Yu wouldn't die if he didn't sleep, but he would feel sleepy.

So, he still had to sleep.

However, he had just closed his eyes for less than two minutes when he heard a knock on the door.

He got up to open the door and found Yu Yueyue in a thin nightgown.

"Brother Fang Yu, I, I'm too scared to sleep alone at home... Can I sleep at your place?" Yu Yueyue's big, beautiful eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her delicate nose was also red. She looked incredibly pitiful.

Apart from her mother, the person she trusted the most was Fang Yu.

Fang Yu was taken aback. There was only one bed in his house.

But seeing that Yu Yueyue was still trembling, Fang Yu didn't refuse and agreed to her request.

"You can sleep in my bed tonight," Fang Yu said.

"I, I can sleep on the floor. You sleep on the bed," Yu Yueyue said.

"It's okay. I slept for a long time on the train today and I'm not very sleepy," Fang Yu said.

Yu Yueyue didn't say anything more and carefully climbed onto Fang Yu's bed.

This is Brother Fang Yu's bed. It still has his warmth. He was lying here just now...

Lying on the bed, looking at Fang Yu sitting at the desk, looking through a large stack of prescriptions, Yu Yueyue felt her face heat up.

I'm actually lying on Brother Fang Yu's bed...

What is Brother Fang Yu looking at?

How can Brother Fang Yu be so good at fighting? Those two men were so fierce just now, but Brother Fang Yu threw them out in two moves... He's so handsome.

With a young girl's infatuation, Yu Yueyue's mind wandered. Before long, sleepiness came over her and she fell asleep.

The next day, Fang Yu went to Jianghai Middle School.

In fact, over the past few thousand years, he had attended school many times.

But there was no other way. Since he wanted to live on, he had to live like a normal person.

Fang Yu, who had tried countless occupations, still thought going to school was the most interesting and relaxing.

Returning to the classroom of Class 2, Senior 3, Fang Yu sat down in his seat in the corner of the classroom.

In the class, he was just a withdrawn and low - key student, with no friends and hardly noticeable.

He was sure that at least half of the class didn't even know his name clearly.

"I heard that Tang Xiaorou, the school beauty of the key class next door, is going to transfer to our class. Is it true?"

"Yes. The monitor overheard Tang Xiaorou talking to our counselor in the office. She was asking to transfer to our class."

"Damn, what's going on? She's a goddess! Why does she want to transfer to our class? Could she have a crush on some guy in our class?"

Fang Yu could hear all these discussions, but he just found them noisy.

"Hey, Fang Yu, Tang Xiaorou is transferring to our class. Why aren't you excited at all?" Liu Dong, the chubby deskmate, poked Fang Yu's arm and asked.

"I don't even know who she is. Why should I be excited?" Fang Yu asked in return.

"Damn, you haven't even heard of Tang Xiaorou? She's the daughter of the Tang family in Jiangnan. Her family background is remarkable, needless to say. The key is that she has an angel - like beautiful face. She's the well - deserved school beauty of our Jianghai Middle School, a goddess - level figure!" Fatty Liu said excitedly.

The Tang family in Jiangnan? It seemed he had heard of it somewhere.

But Fang Yu just replied with an "oh" and then lay down on the desk, closing his eyes to rest.

Not having slept all night, Fang Yu was a bit sleepy.

Seeing that Fang Yu was not interested at all, Fatty Liu stopped chatting with him.

The class bell rang, and everyone returned to their seats, sitting up straight, waiting for the arrival of the school beauty.

Sure enough, the counselor, Huang Hai, led a girl into the classroom.

The girl was wearing a school uniform, with a single ponytail. Her face was free of makeup, yet her skin was as white as snow, smooth and radiant.

Her facial features were extremely delicate, with eyes that sparkled like stars, a dainty nose, and rosy lips.

Wearing the same school uniform, the girl exuded an otherworldly charm like a celestial fairy.

This was the school beauty, the goddess.

Almost all the boys and girls in the class exclaimed simultaneously.

"From today on, classmate Tang Xiaorou will transfer to our Class 2 and study with us. Let's give a warm welcome to classmate Tang Xiaorou!" the counselor, Huang Hai, said with a respectful expression.

The students in the class all started clapping, disturbing Fang Yu, who was resting with his eyes closed. He raised his head.

As soon as he raised his head, Fang Yu saw Tang Xiaorou standing on the podium.

Huh? It's actually her?

Fang Yu immediately understood why Tang Xiaorou wanted to transfer to this class.

Damn it! Trouble is coming.

Tang Xiaorou was also looking for Fang Yu in the class. When she saw Fang Yu in the corner, her beautiful eyes lit up.

Fang Yu, so you're really here!

"Counselor, I want to be at the same desk as him," Tang Xiaorou said, staring intently at the position where Fang Yu was sitting.
