Chapter 486: The Recollection
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ye Wei calmly lay under the lounging umbrella as she closed her eyes and lifted her arms as Meng Lianling suggested to her. Ye Wei, however, was unable to enter a state of hypnosis.
The situation at hand was a little tacky and all that Meng Lianling did was unable to allow Ye Wei to smoothly enter a state of hypnosis. When Mo Jue hypnotized Ye Wei, he only allowed Ye Wei to selectively forget the dream she had, and even went as far to lock Ye Wei’s memory so that Ye Wei would not be unable to hypnotize herself. As Meng Lianling was unable to hypnotize Ye Wei, she could only get Ye Wei to wait on the beach.
Meng Lianling left, and returned half an hour later with a crystal ball and two sleeping pills.
Ye Wei looked at the blue pills in Meng Lianling’s hand, then at Meng Lianling in a state of slight confusion. “Do these pills have any side effects?” She was never one to trust anybody too easily.
“No!” Meng Lianling gently smiled. “We are doing this behind Brother Jue’s back since he p***ed me off the other time and I will not jeopardize your safety however reckless I am. If I do, he will come after me. So relax! These are regular sleeping pills that will reduce the time taken for you to enter a state of hypnosis. If the Mo brothers do not rely on sleeping pills to help reduce the time taken to enter hypnosis, I am afraid I am unable to hypnotize you.
Ye Wei nodded and swallowed the two blue pills without hesitation before lying down again. Meng Lianling opted to visually enthrall Ye Wei by swinging the crystal ball before Ye Wei so that Ye Wei’s eyes would follow the crystal ball as it swung extremely gently.
As Ye Wei gradually became focused after consuming the medicine, she gradually closed her eyes ten minutes later and was semi-hypnotized. Meng Lianling, through her voice, guided Ye Wei to recall the dream the night before.
As the hypnotist and the hypnotized relied on such a connection, Ye Wei, through Meng Lianling’s words, gradually returned to that very night. Meng Lianling was using reverse hypnosis on Ye Wei.
Ye Wei first recalled how Mo Jue hypnotized her, and the image of her seeing Eleven gradually appeared in her mind. She was in an extremely cold dungeon, and the woman who seemed utterly helter skelter called her Wei Wei…
Ye Wei’s heart ached as the woman called her. The image of her being grabbed by the throat resurfaced, and Ye Wei’s emotions were extremely mixed.
As Ye Wei struggled to break free of the terrible dream, she struggled even more. Meng Lianling’s hints became even more intense, and she said, “Wei Wei, tell me, who did you see?”
“Eleven…” Ye Wei murmured with some trepidation. “Eleven…”
“Where is she?” Meng Lianling spoke as gently and softly as a good hypnotist could despite her urgency to know where Eleven exactly was. She asked twice, but Ye Wei did not respond to her. Meng Lianling panicked and asked again, “Wei Wei, where is she? Where is Eleven?”
Ye Wei suddenly opened her eyes, and Meng Lianling was shocked. “Wei Wei?” She called out after some hesitation?
How did she manage to suddenly wake up? Ye Wei had to be awoken from the hypnosis with a specific method, so how could she suddenly wake up? Ye Wei’s head was covered in sweat, and her breathing felt rushed. It was as though she was, for a moment, unable to recover from the hypnosis.
As the hypnosis method took an immense toll on the hypnotized, Ye Wei was panting non-stop as she closed and opened her eyes again. Meng Lianling tried to call Ye Wei a few times before Ye Wei slowly looked to turn to her.
Meng Lianling heaved a sigh of relief – thank goodness nothing happened.
“What happened? Are you okay?” Meng Lianling asked worryingly.
Ye Wei shook her head and gradually calmed her breathing. Meng Lianling then asked, “Did you recall anything?”
“Mo Jue has indeed hypnotized me,” Ye Wei laughed bitterly as her doubts were confirmed. As her doubts were confirmed, she could only bitterly laugh as how her paper-thin trust for him was broken.
It was without help.
“Where is Eleven?” Meng Lianling asked urgently.
“I just saw her. Lianling, can I trouble you to hypnotize me again so that I can see it more clearly?” Ye Wei plainly said.
“Wei Wei, no! It’s too dangerous!” Meng Lianling was shocked.
“It’s okay!” Ye Wei interrupted her. “Make it longer.”
Meng Lianling could not convince Ye Wei otherwise and agreed to her. As the second hypnosis began, Meng Lianling did not discover that Ye Wei had jabbed a silver needle in her hand into her palm so that she would not be completely under Meng Lianling’s control.
She was conscious, and she already clearly saw how helter skelter Eleven was in her dream. She could not help but hab herself hard so that she would wake up.
She wanted to clearly see what had happened.
As Ye Wei had wished, the earlier part of the dream was Big Boss Mo and her, the mountain, a car, a mansion… The images kept on going backwards and the location seemed much clearer although it was somewhat blur.
The car suddenly stopped at the top of her hill. She, in her daze, saw the top of the mansion…
“Wei Wei, did you see it? Where is she?” Meng Lianling’s sparse voice seemed to come from afar and did not seem particularly clear. It felt somewhat distant.
“Wei Wei, where is she?” She did not dare to be too eager and gently asked this time.
As Ye Wei struggled in her dream, she ignored Meng Lianling’s voice. The image in Ye Wei’s mind suddenly froze.
While this image did not appear in her dreams, it appeared as a slowed-down image when she was hypnotized.
The mansion on the hill!
As Ye Wei jabbed the silver needle into her palm, she woke up. Unlike before, she was mentally prepared this time, and not as panicky and heartbroken as before. She wiped the sweat away from her forehead and looked at her feet steely.
Was it the mansion on top of the mountain? What was she there for?
“Wei Wei, did you see it clearly?” Meng Lianling asked her urgently.
Ye Wei shook her head somewhat helplessly. “I saw her scorned look, and she was on the verge of death. I could not clearly see where she was.”
Since she clearly knew that Meng Lianling was after Eleven, how would she tell Meng Lianling and hence wish Eleven dead? Jason and Ye Chen had asked her where Eleven was, and she would prefer Eleven end up in their hands instead of Meng Lianling’s.
“You REALLY could not see where she was?”
“Er yes. I only saw people, and the place was too small for me to clearly see it,” Ye Wei flatly replied.
“You said that she was about to die?”
Meng Lianling was particularly disgusted with the word ‘death’. While Ye Wei especially resented how Meng Lianling asked her the question so anticipatively…
“Er yes. She’s just that bit away from dying,” Ye Wei said.
As Meng Lianling could not make out whether she was elated or disappointed, she fell silent. Ye Wei was afraid that Meng Lianling would become suspicious and did not look back at the mansion on the mountain. She instead looked at the sea.
The calm sea was accompanied by a star-studded sky.
