CHAPTER 298: CHAPTER 298: IT MIGHT BE HYPNOSIS

Ningwan told him that Li Qingqing is now with Wan Yufeng and briefly described what had happened these days.

Finally, she took out a photo of Wan Yufeng for Wen Daofu to see.

"This is what Wan Yufeng looks like now."

"How is that possible?"

As expected, Wen Daofu was also very surprised.

Ningwan said: "This is indeed Wan Yufeng. I suspect he might be suffering from some disease, which is why he looks like this. I need the Thousand-year-old Tai Sui, but he bought it, probably to cure his illness."

"It might be premature aging," Wen Daofu said.

Ningwan continued, "I’m not interested in what illness he has right now. I just want to know if there is a solution to the drug you developed that causes neural confusion. Can it restore memory?"

Wen Daofu said: "My drug can only cause confusion in the mind, and the memory loss you mentioned is not drug-induced. I am aware of this because Wan Yufeng explained it to me back then. He originally asked me to develop this kind of drug, but I was reluctant. Even if the mind is confused, it’s impossible to completely forget everything. So I explained this to him at the time. He said it didn’t matter; he just needed to make her mind confused, and he would later have a psychologist hypnotize her to forget the unpleasant things. I think her memory loss is mostly due to hypnosis."

"I see." Ningwan suddenly understood.

This was Li Qingqing’s plan, to first have her and Zhan Hanjue take the drug, and finally have a psychologist perform hypnosis.

"I want to personally go and talk to Li Qingqing and Wan Yufeng," Wen Daofu repeated.

Ningwan asked, "Do you know if Wan Yufeng has any known psychologists? I’m not familiar with hypnosis, but I do know that whoever tied the bell on the tiger must untie it. To restore memory, we need to find the person who did the hypnosis."

"I don’t know about that, I’m only responsible for making the drug. Even for your mother, I only met her once. Because I needed to adjust the dosage according to her constitution, I checked her pulse once to assess her physical condition." Wen Daofu shook his head.

Ningwan frowned, "I understand. I will continue to investigate."

"I am also responsible for this matter, and I won’t shirk my responsibility. I will give you an explanation," Wen Daofu affirmed solemnly.

"You’re right, you bear a significant responsibility for this matter. It’s only right that you want to make amends. Wan Yufeng is in Philadelphia, and Li Qingqing is also in Philadelphia, so handle it as you see fit," Ningwan said, standing up to leave.

The bodyguard was waiting at the door, and seeing her come out, they breathed a sigh of relief.

She hadn’t come out for so long, and they were quite anxious.

If anything had happened to the lady, they wouldn’t know how to explain it to the boss.

After Ningwan left, Wen Daofu immediately prepared his schedule for a trip to Philadelphia.

Actually, he was very busy now, but he couldn’t care about that anymore.

Li Qingqing actually left behind such a harmful formula, and Wan Yufeng sheltered Li Qingqing in doing such things, which was truly excessive.

Since the formula was developed by him, he couldn’t just sit by and do nothing.

However, after Ningwan left the hospital and got into the car, she left one of the bodyguards behind to guard the entrance.

"Keep an eye on Wen Daofu for me, report any unusual activity immediately. I will have Zhan Hanjue assign additional personnel to watch him." Ningwan instructed.

The bodyguard didn’t understand why.

But since it was the CEO’s wife giving the order, he followed it without question.

After returning home, Ningwan first went to Old Mrs. Zhan’s place to greet her.

Old Mrs. Zhan asked if they had reconciled, and Ningwan replied with a smile, "We were never arguing in the first place, so there’s no need to worry."

"As long as you aren’t arguing. When you two are well, I feel at ease," Old Mrs. Zhan said.

At this moment, Mrs. Chen came over, nodded to Ningwan in greeting, and whispered something to Old Mrs. Zhan.

Old Mrs. Zhan frowned, and her expression became very unpleasant.

Ningwan noticed Old Mrs. Zhan’s displeasure but didn’t pry.

Old Mrs. Zhan didn’t want to tell her, so Ningwan thought it best not to ask more.

"Ningwan, you should head back! Hanjue might be getting off work soon."

Indeed, Old Mrs. Zhan didn’t want her to know and urged her to leave.

Ningwan nodded and stood up to take her leave.

After Ningwan left, Old Mrs. Zhan angrily said to Mrs. Chen, "What does she think she’s doing? Forcing her well-behaved son to his breaking point?"

"Who knows, the invitations have been sent out, everything’s prepared. When the time comes, as the matriarch, you’ll have to attend the wedding banquet. She didn’t have the face to come and tell you this herself, so she had someone from our family come over to inform you. What should we do? The family member is still waiting outside; should I let him in?" Mrs. Chen also looked aggrieved.

Old Mrs. Zhan thought for a moment: "Let him in, it’s not proper to keep him waiting outside."

"Are you going to attend?" Mrs. Chen asked.

Madam Zhan said, "She hopes I would attend, so of course, I will. It wouldn’t look good if I didn’t. After all, she’s a daughter of the Zhan family. Our presence would show her due respect."

"You’re always kind, giving her respect, but she doesn’t appreciate it," Mrs. Chen said with a wry smile.

Old Mrs. Zhan laughed in exasperation, "At my age, do I still hold grudges against her? You stand up for me instead, say a few words for me next time you see her."

"I wouldn’t dare; Mrs. Leng is quite formidable. Apart from our Young Madam, no one else can speak against her," Mrs. Chen laughed.

After that, she quickly went out to let the family member in.

Still standing outside in the wind, he couldn’t be kept waiting for too long.

"Young Madam, you’re back."

He greeted Ningwan as she came in.

"Has the master returned?" Ningwan asked.

He shook his head: "Not yet, do you want me to call Chen?"

Chen is Zhan Hanjue’s driver.

Ningwan said: "No need to call, there’s nothing urgent anyway."

As they spoke, Zhan Hanjue walked in from outside.

He saw this and said with a smile, "Speak of the devil, here he is."

Ningwan turned around, smiling brightly at Zhan Hanjue.

Zhan Hanjue quickened his pace, walked swiftly to her side, and held her hand: "How did the talk with Wen Daofu go? Was it smooth?"

"Yes, it went smoothly. He is going to confront Wan Yufeng and Li Qingqing. He admitted to making the drug, but said that knowing the drug was bad, he destroyed it. It seems that Li Qingqing was crafty enough to secretly replicate it. Who would have imagined, she was only a teenager at the time, yet so scheming; it shows she wasn’t a good person from the start."

"He’s going to confront Wan Yufeng and Li Qingqing? Could this alert them?" Zhan Hanjue asked.

Ningwan said, "I hope it does alert them. Wen Daofu’s drug can only cause mind confusion, not memory loss. He mentioned Wan Yufeng had told him, he had even found a psychologist to perform hypnosis to erase parts of the memory after using the drug. So, I assume that the reason my mother cannot remember her past and had her memories altered is probably due to hypnosis. To solve the problem, we need whoever performed the hypnosis, but I don’t know who that psychologist is, so I can’t help my mother recover her memory."
