To avoid arousing Tang Shichu's suspicions, Bai Ling told him the truth.
"After being hypnotized, I was taken away, and by the time I woke up, many days had passed. I had no idea what was happening until I later found out that the person who hypnotized me was my brother."
Tang Shichu looked at her, and in his eyes, apart from fatigue and concern for her, was also confusion.
It seemed there were some things he still hadn't quite understood.
Bai Ling went on, "I never told you, but I have a brother who is three years older than me. We were separated when we were very young."
"He searched for me for many years, and after he finally found me, he hypnotized and took me away without my knowledge. It was days later when I woke up."
"Shichu, don't you believe me?"
Looking at Tang Shichu silently staring at her, Bai Ling suddenly felt a bit panicked at this moment.
