The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!-Chapter 955: Hypnosis (5)

This villa, Mu Yiliang had visited before, but never stayed. However, it continued the style of the Yan Mansion in City A, with little difference in layout and structure, so she quickly adapted.

Yet, thinking about returning to Yan Sijue’s room, her eyes reflected a bit of struggle and resistance.

Yan Sijue noticed clearly but still led her inside without further ado.

The room’s decor remained low-key and luxurious.

Mu Yiliang was involuntarily seated by him beside the bed.

Yan Sijue squatted in front of her, holding her hands in his palms, quietly observing her. His gaze was intensely focused, as though trying to memorize every inch of her.

Mu Yiliang’s face gradually reddened, stammering as she spoke, "What are you doing?"

The man chuckled hoarsely, reached out as if to touch her cheek, and Mu Yiliang instinctively dodged.

His fingers paused briefly but still stroked her face.

Mu Yiliang lowered her eyes.

"Yiliang, how did you leave the small island? Can you tell me?" He spoke softly.

Mu Yiliang pressed her lips together and slowly said, "It was... Xin. She suddenly appeared and took me away. These past few months, she was the one who kept me confined."

Yan Sijue’s voice choked slightly: "Did she do anything to you?"

Mu Yiliang shook her head: "No. She did not harm me."

The man lowered his head, lifted her right leg, which had been injured, and it seemed perfectly healed.

"Does it still hurt?" he asked softly.

"It doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s fully recovered, you don’t have to worry." She appeared somewhat uneasy, instinctively attempting to retract her leg, but Yan Sijue still held it tightly, and even bent down to gently kiss the area where she had surgery before.

Mu Yiliang gasped in surprise!

The tingling sensation, like a feather’s touch, spread from her calf throughout her body. She gritted her teeth, showing a hint of endurance on her face.

Yan Sijue raised his eyes to meet hers: "What else did Xin do to you?"

"She... she tried to hypnotize me." As Mu Yiliang spoke, her expression showed a trace of confusion, "She wanted me to kill you, but she didn’t succeed. Later, I found a chance to escape."

"I see." Yan Sijue smiled faintly, stood up, and wrapped her in his embrace.

Mu Yiliang leaned against his chest, her body somewhat stiff.

Yan Sijue closed his eyes, silently curled his lips, his smile incredibly bitter.

The words just now were probably instilled into her by Xin through hypnosis. A half-truth explanation, clearly just to deceive him.

But Xin didn’t care; she didn’t care if he knew the truth.

Because she was certain that even if he knew the truth, he would still act according to her expectations.

Indeed, Xin guessed correctly.

Even knowing that Yiliang might harm him, he couldn’t bear to leave her.

Seeing her like this made his heart ache to the point of being unable to breathe!

He never thought she’d one day see him as an enemy, just being held in his arms made her so tense, seemingly extremely repulsed by his proximity.

The resilient and tenacious her he remembered, the vibrant and lively her, had become like this... In these three months, how much psychological torment had she endured?

Thinking of this made him loathe himself for relying on so-called gratitude back then, not having decisively ended Xin’s threat!

He hadn’t anticipated that even with just a breath remaining, Xin could retaliate from a desperate situation, delivering a harsh blow!
