Ruan Zeyan saw Ling Tianya roll her eyes at him, but he didn’t say anything. He helped Ling Tianya sit down on the big soft sofa and turned to talk to the man.
Ling Tianya noticed that Ruan Zeyan was just talking about some trivial things with the man, which was not his style at all. To him, time was money, so he seldom wasted time chatting with others. Ling Tianya, therefore, started to become suspicious about the identity of the man, her eyes staring at him without blinking.
Suddenly, Ling Tianya’s eyelids became heavier and heavier while her body was getting lighter and lighter. She felt like she was in the cloud, and everything around her disappeared. In the white clouds, she was all by herself.
Seeing that Ling Tianya had entered the state of hypnosis, Ruan Zeyan changed his casual demeanor and his eyes became serious as he stared at the hypnotist opposite of him.
Ruan Zeyan’s gaze made the hypnotist feel a little uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and adjusted his mindset before giving Ruan Zeyan a silent nod.
Ruan Zeyan indicated to the hypnotist that he could start, and the hypnotist switched his attention to Ling Tianya’s and began to guide her with a soft whisper.
“How are you feeling now?” the hypnotist said to Ling Tianya.
Ling Tianya had her eyes closed but her eyeballs moved slightly as she murmured, “I… I can’t feel anything…”
“I want you to go back to your first memories and tell me what you see.”
Ling Tianya frowned. “I saw my mother… she was crying… and Grandma… Grandma is swearing… She is swearing…”
“Where are you? What are you doing?”
“I am hiding in the closet… holding my teddy bear… I am scared…”
Hearing Ling Tianya’s words, Ruan Zeyan couldn’t help but furrow his brows as he imagined little Ling Tianya hidden in the closet, shaking and holding her teddy bear.
“Good. We’re relaxed now, and I want you to move forward. You have grown up. What are you seeing now? Where are you?”
Ling Tianya suddenly smiled sweetly. “I saw a handsome man. He smiled at me and often came to drink my coffee.”
“What happened next? What happened to this man later?”
“He said he likes me…”
“And then?”
“And then… he left…”
“After that?”
“I left too…”
“Good. So where are you now? What do you see?”
“I…” Ling Tianya’s breathing suddenly quickened, and her pulse was rising rapidly on the monitor.
The hypnotist stared at the monitor and continued to ask questions. “What do you see? Where are you?”
The way Ling Tianya was behaving told him that something must have happened during this time.
This change in Ling Tianya made Ruan Zeyan look even more serious. His dark eyes were fixated on her and his thin lips were sealed.
“I saw a car… It was driving towards me… Someone was chasing me…”
“Who? Look carefully. What do you see?”
Ling Tianya’s eyeballs moved frantically under her eyelids and her breathing became more and more rushed. It seemed as if she was about to suffocate, and her body was twisting back and forth on the sofa.
“I don’t know… I don’t know! Ah!” Ling Tianya grabbed her head with her hands. Her eyes remained closed, and her body trembled with pain.
