Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Wishing You a Century of Happy Union

His violet eyes were deep and enigmatic as he carefully observed Xiao Jinsheng’s reactions.

He noticed that aside from confusion and bewilderment, all that remained was fear.

"If you can’t remember, I can help you recall." Mo Jiao stepped forward.

Xiao Jinsheng clutched Que Zelian’s belt tightly, retreating alongside him.

"Mo Jiao, don’t act recklessly." Que Zelian’s expression darkened, his gaze dangerous as he looked at Mo Jiao.

"Why are you all so tense? It’s not like I’m planning to look into her memories." Mo Jiao scanned the five people, all exceptionally wary of him.

"Aren’t you good at hypnotism?" Mo Jiao turned to Huaiqing. "I don’t need to see her memories, but I must know what she did seven days ago."

"Whether you’ve purposefully forgotten or accidentally forgotten, I need to know." Mo Jiao’s gaze lingered on Xiao Jinsheng with a faint smile.

Xiao Jinsheng puffed up her face, her fair cheeks flushed with anger.

"What I didn’t do, I didn’t do!" Xiao Jinsheng shouted angrily, then turned to Huaiqing. "You want to hypnotize me to see my memories from seven days ago? On what grounds? Just because you said so?"

Huaiqing awkwardly adjusted his glasses and weakly explained, "I never agreed to hypnotize you."

"If you won’t act, I’ll have to do it myself." Mo Jiao sneered coldly, a black mist emanating from his palm.

"Mo Jiao, calm yourself." Que Zelian spoke sternly.

Though it was midday, the rainy weather rendered the sky outside dim and somber.

The thunder roared, the heavy rain poured down relentlessly, and an invisible yet powerful gust of wind arose inside the sealed house, forcing Mo Jiao downstairs.

The lights in the living room flickered erratically, appearing dim and bright in turns; the chandelier swayed, producing a series of jingling sounds.

"What now? Are you looking to fight me?" Mo Jiao allowed his outer robe and long hair to be whipped about by the wind, his violet eyes locking onto Que Zelian’s shadowed and somber gaze.

"Doesn’t matter." Que Zelian reached back and pulled Xiao Jinsheng’s hand forward, pushing her into Su Ye’s arms.
