Chapter 1264: Chapter 1236: Revealing Their Unique Moves

Memories that had been forgotten began to surface bit by bit in Qian’s mind, "The two-story building at my home was built very early. I’ve always wondered where Chen Lin got so much money. He said he borrowed a lot to cover it, but that’s not right. My mom once casually mentioned that the house hadn’t borrowed much, and the family debts were all gambling debts from Chen Lin. So this money might have been given by my master."

The past is like Pandora’s box; while closed, nothing is visible, but once opened, all the suspicious clues come to light.

"Suppose Qio Yu Xuan once brought a sum of money and entrusted it to your mother to take care of a child whose name contained the word ’Xiang.’ But after your parents accepted the money, they forgot Qio Yu Xuan. There are two suspicious points here. First, why would they forget the name of the benefactor who gave them a large sum? Why does Qio Yu Xuan pretend not to know them? Second, where is the child with ’Xiang’ in her name brought by Qio Yu Xuan back then? Why does your mother never mention her?"

After Xiaoqiang finished speaking, the couple fell into silence simultaneously, and suddenly, a recent event triggered a flash of realization for both!

"Implanted hypnosis!!"

The couple exclaimed in unison!

Others couldn’t modify memories so thoroughly, but Qio Yu Xuan was different. He was the founder of implanted hypnosis. This technique is known only to him and his disciples globally. He could completely erase Qian’s parents’ memories without pressure. It must be like this!

Not long ago, Qian’s mom encountered Qio Yu Xuan at home, and her reaction was that he seemed familiar, but Qio Yu Xuan adamantly denied it.

Meanwhile, Qian’s mom happened to hand Xiaoqiang some superstitious items to burn outside, but that moment coincided with Qio Yu Xuan’s errand for Qian. In such a short time, others find it difficult to thoroughly clean memories, but no one knows the extent of Qio Yu Xuan’s abilities. Qian believes he very likely could achieve it!

That’s why Qian’s mom reversed her stance after Qian returned, resolutely claiming never to have met him!

This makes the logic clear.

"There must have been something kept from you back in the day, and now those who know about this are probably these few people: Qio Yu Xuan, Nong Yao, Mom, and Chen Lin." Yu Minglang clarified the logic.

Qian nodded, that was it, he was thinking exactly what she was.

"Next time Qio Yu Xuan comes by, I’m going to ask him directly, who he is, and why he wants to alter my parents’ memories!" Qian said and saw Yu Minglang looking speechless.

"Dear, are you going scatterbrained for three years during pregnancy? Come, let me crack a couple of walnuts to boost your brain."

Qian also felt that what she said just now was foolish, asking Qio Yu Xuan about something he didn’t want to discuss would only make him more vigilant.

"Can we hypnotize Qio Yu Xuan or Nong Yao?" Yu Minglang asked.

Qian shook her head.

"If they’re like you, difficult to hypnotize, and I try to manipulate them and get discovered, it’ll be even harder to learn the truth afterward."

Qian instinctively felt that she couldn’t act on Qio Yu Xuan or Nong Yao. Not to mention her current skills were inferior to them, but those in this field must be difficult to hypnotize. If it turns out they’re like Xiaoqiang, impossible to hypnotize, once discovered, learning the truth later becomes even less feasible.

"Then let’s hypnotize Mom; she’s someone who would tell you everything even without hypnosis, so with hypnosis, it should be even easier, right? She’s surely the type difficult to hypnotize."

Qian’s eyes lit up, what a good idea! That’s the plan; her mom has a dependency personality trait, unlocking her memories wouldn’t be complicated.

Having thought it through, Qian, who can’t keep things to herself, immediately called her mom.

At this moment, Qian’s mom had already changed into her pajamas and lay down; upon hearing the phone ring, she immediately got up.

"Hello? Qian’er! What’s up? Is anything wrong?"

"Nothing, Mom, I miss you; can you come over tomorrow? I really want to eat the fish you stew."

Qian’s mom sighed in relief.

"Ah, I thought it was something serious, seeing you call at this hour; I was afraid you were acting willful again and bullying Minglang. It’s good there’s nothing wrong, very good! Why think of me in the middle of the night?"

"I don’t know; I just had a dream about the fish you stew, I really want to eat it."

"All right, all right, I’ll come over tomorrow. You child, grown this big and still acting spoiled. You’re in your twenties and still craving mom."

Mr. Liao woke up to go to the bathroom and saw his wife smiling foolishly at the phone that had already hung up.

"What’s up?"

"Qian’er misses me. Hehe, I knew that girl can’t stay away from me; she’s grown up but still thinks about mom like a child."

Mr. Liao shook his head. Though his wife complained verbally, her pretentious face couldn’t hide her satisfaction. She was quite worried Qian wouldn’t need her.

Last time, after being criticized by Qian for hosting a lecture on traditional female virtues, she came back angry and resentful, muttering she was useless and couldn’t help the child anymore; Mr. Liao couldn’t console her.

Now, with a phone call from Qian, she’s full of vitality, instantly rejuvenated.

"I need to call Songg, the fish seller, and ask him to keep the best one for me. Also, bring our family’s fish stew kit..."

As she spoke, she went looking, busy as ever.

Mr. Liao hurriedly restrained her, "It’s so late, let’s talk tomorrow, besides fish and veggies are available in Lishi, why bring a fish all the way?"

"How could they be the same? The fish in Lishi are transported from elsewhere, not fresh, not tasty, how could they compare to the freshly caught ones by the sea? Eating sea fish makes babies smart; no matter if she’s a PhD or whatever, they all feel homesick for mom’s cooking eventually!"

Qian’s mom found her sense of purpose, humming a tune as she busied herself.

Qian didn’t rest either; after calling her mom, she instructed Yu Minglang immediately.

"Find someone to drive and personally pick up my mom tomorrow."

"I understand."

Yu Minglang knew Qian was worried someone might tamper with Qian’s mom’s memory en route. These psychology experts together could easily manipulate memory.

At this point, it’s a showdown among high-intelligence, even industry-leading minds. Qian felt unprecedented pressure.

The opponent she faced was Qio Yu Xuan, the top expert in this field. Not only had his technique reached a godly level, but he also treated her well. Speaking truthfully, Qian didn’t dislike Qio Yu Xuan; she even vaguely sensed that not only does he have no ill will, but he’s genuinely very good. The real truth, once uncovered, might actually hurt her mom.

On Qian’s side teaming up with Yu Minglang, even Nong Yao felt uneasy. Deep hypnosis requires some time. Yu Minglang was asleep when unlocking the hypnosis on Qian, but whether he was genuinely asleep or pretending is uncertain. If it was an act...
