Chapter 479: 479 Hypnosis_1

Lu Jiahao was shocked as he looked at Lu Qingyi, disbelief gleaming in his eyes.

No evidence?

Why?

If there was no evidence, how could they be so sure of Lu Qingyi?

Lu Qingyi smirked and laughed lightly. Indeed, she had no evidence. There were plenty of signs pointing to Yao Meishu causing harm to Ruan Qingyang, but she couldn’t gather solid evidence.

She just used her own influence to have Yao Meishu put behind bars without any conclusive proof to convict her.

"Is that so?"

Lu Qingyi raised her eyebrows, casting a casual glance at Lu Jiayue.

Taking out a pendant, Lu Qingyi waved it continuously before Yao Meishu, whose eyes gradually blurred.

"What are you up to, Lu Qingyi?"

Watching Yao Meishu’s gaze become increasingly abnormal, Lu Jiayue cried out in shock.

What on earth was Lu Qingyi doing?

She tried to reach for Lu Qingyi, but was seized by a prison officer who had entered at some point, and was forced to look on at Lu Qingyi’s strange actions.

"Who are you?"

Lu Qingyi suddenly asked.

"Yao Meishu."

Like a devoid of emotion, Yao Meishu honestly answered Lu Qingyi’s question.

"What’s your sister’s name?"

"Ruan Qingyang."

"What’s your daughter’s name?"

"Lu Jiayue."

"What kind of person do you think your sister is?"

"Excellent."

Lu Qingyi asked, and Yao Meishu answered. It was as if she was compelled to respond, and her answers were all accurate and truthful.

Lu Jiahao stared wide-eyed at Lu Qingyi in surprise. Hypnosis, a concept he had only seen on TV dramas, was apparently not just a fictitious concept.

This was baffling.

He had only heard about it, but never seen it with his own eyes.

Lu Jiahao’s eyes twinkled as he looked at Lu Qingyi. She was really impressive, but why did he have to discover her other talents at such a time and place?

"Lu..."

"Shut up and keep quiet."

Lu Jiayue wanted to call Lu Qingyi but was interrupted by a cold voice from the prison officer.

Lu Jiayue, startled, shrunk back and fell silent.

"Did your sister die in childbirth?"

Lu Qingyi asked again, moving the conversation towards the crux of the matter.

"No."

Yao Meishu seemed to struggle before answering somewhat slowly.

Although hypnosis can compel people to tell the truth, secrets that have been buried long may not necessarily be confessed by those under hypnosis.

But Lu Qingyi was confident in her hypnosis skills.

"How did she die?"

"Poisoned."

Poisoned?

Lu Jiayue and Lu Jiahao both looked up at Yao Meishu in synchrony.

Lu Jiahao, having known the truth beforehand, wasn’t surprised. However, hearing those words from Yao Meishu’s mouth made his heart run cold.

Lu Jiayue, on the other hand, was flabbergasted. Yao Meishu had clearly said before that Ruan Qingyang died of childbirth complications, but now she claimed that she had been poisoned.

Had Yao Meishu actually done something?

"Who poisoned her?"

Lu Qingyi’s gaze was icy cold.

"... I did."

With each word seeming to take a minute to utter, Yao Meishu had spoken after a long struggle.

In her subconscious, she probably didn’t want to confess, and it was only due to Lu Qingyi’s hypnosis that she was forced to admit it.

I?

At that single word, Lu Jiayue was petrified. She stared at Yao Meishu, her face full of disbelief.

Just a few minutes ago, Yao Meishu had clearly denied committing any wrongdoing, and now, so swiftly, she ate her own words?

She wanted to voice out her suspicions but swallowed her words upon receiving a warning glance from the prison officer.

"I want to know the specifics."

Lu Qingyi’s eyes hardened even more.

"I hated Ruan Qingyang, hated that she was better than me. I was in love with Lu Yao, but Lu Yao was infatuated with Ruan Qingyang.

I was accepted into Beijing University, while Ruan Qingyang was accepted into Hardrick. Ruan Qingyang would frequently visit me at Beijing University, bestowing gifts upon me, and unexpectedly ensnared Lu Yao.

Lu Yao mistook Ruan Qingyang for me and started to fervently pursue me. Fearing my secret would be exposed, I barred Ruan Qingyang from visiting Beijing University and began to mimic her personality. Eventually, I accepted Lu Yao’s infatuation.

We got together, and later, we got married. I continued imitating Ruan Qingyang’s personality, fearing that what Lu Yao was really attracted to was Ruan Qingyang’s unique character.

...

Ruan Qingyang became pregnant and moved to Jin City. I was scared. I feared Lu Yao discovering Ruan Qingyang.

I thought of countless strategies but to no avail. Because Ruan Qingyang was a doctor and had a keen sense for medicine, I couldn’t get to her.

I gave birth earlier than her and seeing her lying weak and alone in bed, I thought of poisoning her.

I succeeded. Bribing the doctor, I orchestrated a fatal childbirth..."

Yao Meishu rambled on, devoid of any emotions in her eyes, as if she were speaking of something trivial.

A hypnotized person often shows no emotions, answering questions like a tool.

Yao Meishu was no different. In fact, she was utterly unaware of what she was confessing.

Both Lu Jiayue and Lu Jiahao were utterly shocked after hearing Yao Meishu’s confession, their faces plastered with disbelief.

Lu Jiahao swayed momentarily, leaning against the wall for support, his gaze upon Yao Meishu was one of disappointment.

His very own mother had actually poisoned her own biological sister. What a cruel-hearted shrew.

Lu Jiayue bit her lips tightly. What chilled her even more was the deception by Yao Meishu.

Lu Qingyi’s eyes were filled with chilling rage. She despised herself for calling this ruthless woman ’mother’ for so many years.

She was deluded into accepting a murderer as her mother. This was indeed tragically comical.

"This is the evidence."

Lu Qingyi put away the pendant, her voice freezing cold.

You wanted evidence? Well, here it is, concrete evidence.

As the hypnosis ended, Yao Meishu’s expression slowly focused, and she was fully alert again.

A good hypnotist doesn’t care about the object they use for hypnosis. They just need something to hypnotize people with.

In fact, they don’t need anything at all to hypnotize someone.

"Yueyue, where’s your dad? It’s so dark in here. You must find a way to get me out. I didn’t do anything wrong."

Yao Meishu’s hands grabbed hold of the bars. She looked at Lu Jiayue, her eyes full of desperate hope.

Yes, she wanted to get out, desperately.

She didn’t do anything wrong?

Upon hearing these five words, Lu Jiahao’s heart felt colder. Still denying it, huh?

She was arrested, so there had to be some evidence. On what grounds did Yao Meishu believe that no one could unearth her misdeeds?

Lu Jiahao couldn’t help but chuckle ironically.
