Ye Wanwan ignored the discussion and bolted off to find the old headmaster with her fresh-out-of-the-oven honor points.
BANG! Ye Wanwan slammed the door open.
The headmaster seemed to have known she would come and find him, so he was waiting in his office.
Ye Wanwan plopped down on the chair in front of the desk as she said, “Sir Headmaster, I’ve gathered enough honor points.”
“Nice, nice! The rising generation is truly to be reckoned with!” The headmaster seemed to be in a good mood, and his face glowed with happiness.
Ye Wanwan buoyantly responded, “Look, Sir Headmaster. This time, I’ve stolen back Scarlet Flames Academy’s school monument! This is such a great meritorious service! Shouldn’t you gift me with a free hypnosis session?”
“You little fox, you’re rather cheeky. Agreeing to hypnotize you was already an exception to the rule. Every session costs 50,000 honor points, not a single point less. As for your merit, consider it as a payback of my generosity,” the headmaster replied while combing his beard.
Ye Wanwan ground her teeth, rendered speechless. This old fox was actually more shameless than her! He knew she was in a hurry to recover her memories, so he was basically extorting her to finish more missions, right?!
“If you’re ready, let’s begin.”
Ye Wanwan’s focus was drawn away, and she impatiently lay down on the armchair. “Let’s begin.”
Like before, the headmaster drew her into a hypnotized state.
Ye Wanwan closed her eyes, and the world gradually dimmed to black.
She felt like she was traversing through the endless corridor of time before her sight eventually broadened and brightened, light rushing into her vision.
In the scene, a group of people were dining together, and Ye Wanwan saw many familiar faces—all people from the Fearless Alliance.
“President, look, this is my grandson, Fu Mingxi! That punk is bad at everything, but his looks are decent and his personality is docile and obedient, so I think you’d take a liking to him, President!” Based on the speaker’s appearance, he looked to be Second Elder.
“Your grandson?”
“That’s right, that’s right. What do you think President?”
Ye Wanwan’s expression turned absent-minded when she accepted the photo and took a look.
Fu Mingxi’s looks were indeed first-class, but she’d journeyed north and south these past years, so she’d seen all varieties of beautiful men. What caught her attention was that Fu Mingxi’s features actually held some similarities to a certain someone.
Even though it was only vaguely similar, it still dazed her.
Sensing hope, Second Elder hastily said, “If you don’t mind him, I’ll let him follow you after he graduates, President! After all, you know his roots, so you don’t need to worry about his personality and character at all!”
“Sure!” Ye Wanwan accepted.
Second Elder was elated with joy. “Great! Then we’ll settle this engagement here!”
The memory ended at that spot…
The hypnotized Ye Wanwan inexplicably felt an urge to spit up blood.
Why the heck did she recall her dark history first in this third hypnosis session that she obtained after great ordeal?!
It really was her who directly agreed to the engagement with Fu Mingxi back then.
Although she said it in an intoxicated state, it still came from her mouth without question.
Seriously, how sinful…
She was better off forgetting this memory right now. She didn’t want to recall it.
At the same time, she noticed that she seemed to have substituted herself in that mood. When she conversed with Second Elder, her feelings felt empty and she couldn’t raise her spirits toward anything…
She speculated that she must’ve been rejected by Ji Xiuran not too long ago and clearly still couldn’t get over him yet, which was why she was dazed by Fu Mingxi’s microscopic similarity to Ji Xiuran.
