Chapter 561: Hypnosis
Zheng Huai watched as the hypnotist approached Meng Yu, and curiously asked, "How did you manage to drug him so easily? Based on my understanding of Meng Yu, he wouldn’t be so unsuspecting."
Shen Xi sighed softly, wearing an expression of surprise, and said, "I simply told him that Li Zhe wanted him to stay here and not cause trouble for him. Unexpectedly, he obediently complied and didn’t leave."
Zheng Huai was slightly taken aback, but considering Li Zhe’s protection of Meng Yu over the past ten years and Meng Yu’s reliance on and trust in Li Zhe, he could understand.
After the hypnotist finished hypnotizing Meng Yu, he awkwardly approached Shen Xi and said, "I’ve successfully hypnotized him, and as per your request, I also erased his memory of you drugging him."
Shen Xi nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Zheng Huai and said, "Make sure to erase the memories of today from this hypnotist. I don’t trust him."
The hypnotist immediately took two steps back. As a hypnotist, being hypnotized by someone would be a blow to his reputation if word got out. He panicked and said, "Miss Shen, please don’t."
"Why not? If you dare to accept Li Zhe’s job to hypnotize me, shouldn’t I have the right to retaliate? You better behave now, or things might turn ugly later. Right now, I’m only erasing your memory of today. If you don’t obey, I can’t guarantee how much of your memory will remain," Shen Xi warned sternly.
The hypnotist looked anxiously at the approaching Zheng Huai and then back at Shen Xi. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "Can we keep this matter confidential? Otherwise, my reputation will be ruined."
Shen Xi did not actually want to retaliate against the hypnotist. She had already attributed this issue to Li Zhe. She just did not trust the hypnotist, fearing that he might inform Li Zhe of their location and Meng Yu being hypnotized.
"Fine! I won’t tell," Shen Xi agreed.
