Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Jiang Yao looked at Ye Xueli as the latter ran away. She smiled happily as she put the pocket watch back into her pocket. She shrugged and looked at the chief innocently, "Look, she admitted it herself."

The chief was speechless. He knew that many women would have different tricks up their sleeves, but they lacked the intelligence to keep their thoughts hidden.

Even if Ye Xueli wanted to fight with Jiang Yao, it would be a futile effort.

Jiang Yao might have looked weak, but she was not someone to be bullied.

"Mrs. Lu, do you really know hypnotism?"

Xiao Shan did not care whether Ye Xueli admitted it, but he was curious if Jiang Yao knew hypnotism.

"No, I don't."

Jiang Yao admitted it openly. "I lied. If Ye Xueli had a clear conscience and let me hypnotize her, I would not be able to do that. But she had a guilty conscience, so she was afraid and admitted it."

Jiang Yao indeed did not know how to hypnotize someone. Her medical skills did not include a psychology specialization.

However, Jiang Yao knew one person who could do that—Chu Sheng.

Chu Sheng studied psychology, but her hypnotism skills were not as impressive as those they saw in the movie. When the movie came out, they even discussed whether one could do hypnotism to that extent, as in the film.

Chu Sheng had mentioned that she could not do it, but there might be people who could have done it.

Lu Xingzhi knew that Jiang Yao could not do it, but with the arrogant look on Jiang Yao's face, no one would suspect anything if he did not expose her.

"It's late. All of you should go back and rest. I'll think of how to deal with this." The bureau chief did not admonish Jiang Yao for lying. She did nothing to Ye Xueli when the latter admitted to the wrongdoing. "Jiang Yao, we will give you a resolution for this."

"Thank you, Chief."

Jiang Yao nodded and thanked him. Then, she looked at Lu Xingzhi. She returned his smile and left the office with him.

The summer wind in the middle of the night was cold. Usually, there were people everywhere, but at that moment, only Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi were on the street.

Lu Xingzhi held Jiang Yao's hand; he was afraid that she would be cold. Then, he walked in front of her to block the wind.

"Ye Xueli would not be afraid until we threatened her."

Jiang Yao was still angry. However, she found it funny when she thought about how Ye Xueli was so frightened that she almost knelt on the ground. "If she has the mind to do something bad, why wouldn't she keep it hidden more successfully?"

A person's temper had to be proportional to their ability.

"Actually, hypnosis isn't that scary."

Jiang Yao raised his eyebrows. "Chu Sheng said that hypnosis isn't that useful for everyone.

"For some people with a strong will, hypnosis won't work. There was once a spy, who was caught overseas, and someone tried to use hypnosis to get some information out of him. However, he did not leak any information."

Lu Xingzhi patted Jiang Yao's head lovingly. "Are you very curious about hypnotism?" Looking at her eager expression, Lu Xingzhi knew she was interested in hypnotism.

"I am very curious about it!"

Jiang Yao smiled, "After watching that movie, I called Chu Sheng to ask about hypnotism. Her subsequent messages about this topic bombarded my inbox."
