    Jin Xiangdong and Lu Jia’er’s faces were extremely close to each other. Her eyes met his intimate gaze and she could feel his warm breath on her face. Seeing this, her heart pounded violently. His action of putting his hand against the wall romantically prevented her from moving despite being truly affectionate, it resembled the way a couple expressed their affections.


    However, they were not a couple. Hence, his action was not romantic to her but sexual harassment.


    Lu Jia’er struggled to free her hand from his firm grip, but her strength was no match for him. Not only was she not able to escape from him, she had actually drawn him closer. A faint smell of his perfume lingered in the air, it was a pleasant yet familiar smell. Feeling the warm breath on her face, the atmosphere was growing increasingly affectionate.


    Lu Jia’er did not expect that Jin Xiangdong who had always been a gentleman was actually a letcher.


    “Mr.Jin, please behave yourself.” Lu Jia’er was extremely cold when she stared at Jin Xiangdong.


    The woman who stood before JIn Xiandong waspletely different from Lu Jia’er that he knew before. She had never been so cold and distant to him. He could still remember the very first time he met Lu Jia’er, she told him that she wanted to pursue him. Lu Jia’er had even kissed him when he did not pay attention. Moreover, their rtionship had gotten extremely strong during the trip and the way she gazed amorously into his eyes was so bashful and stunningly attractive.


    He did not care whether it was her tricks and or she had totally forgotten about him, he wanted to verify whether she was still the Lu Jia’er that he knew before on his own.


    Jin Xiangdong disregarded her warning and pressed his hips against hers.


    Although there were not many affectionate actions between both of them previously, they all happened with a sudden impulse.Forced kiss was actually the first time.


    Jin Xiangdong was extremely familiar with her soft lips, as if savouring a mouth watering sweet toffee whenever he kissed her.


    At this moment, Jin Xiangdong was absolutely sure that she was truly Lu Jia’er.


    The woman in his embrace did not respond to his kiss. Jin Xiangdong could not help but put his hands around her waist, pressed her body against him and kissed her deeply.


    As Lu Jia’er’s strength was no match for him, the more she struggled, Jin Xiangdong’s hands were as if the vines that clung tightly on her body and was capable of swallowing her entirely.


    Jin Xiangdong’s kiss waspletely different from Ian. Even though Ian was evil and dull, his kiss was very gentle and affectionate. Every time he wrapped her in his embrace and kissed her, she was as if stepping on the white fluffy clouds in the sky.


    This time, Lu Jia’er felt extremely offensive and disgusting, but she was not capable of stopping Jin Xiangdong.


    Even though she was annoyed, Jin Xiangdong’s kiss was actually familiar to her.


    Suddenly, tears broke free from her eyes.


    Only when Jin Xiangdong felt the salty taste at the corner of his mouth, he slowly pulled his lips away and stared at Lu Jia’er who was still buried in his embrace.


    As Jin Xiangdong had never seen Lu Jia’er shed a tear, he could feel her tears were as if dropping in his heart. Not only was it salty, it hurt.


    “Er Er.” Jin Xiangdong reached out to her face, wanting to wipe off her tears.


    Before he could reach her face, Lu Jia’er pushed him away and took a few steps backward.


    p!


    “Bastard!” Lu Jia’er gave a hard p on Jin Xiangdong face as she shouted.


    He could tell from Lu Jia’er’s face that she hated such an intimate and affectionate reaction. She had even called him a bastard.


    Lu Jia’er rushed out the door while Jin Xiangdong stood rooted on the spot.


    At night, in Jin Xiangdong’s vi.


    Jason was on tenterhooks for the whole day, working on the system to prevent hacking. He did not let his guard down even after work. He was still watching thepany’s security system via his notebook.


    Jason was stressed out whereas Jin Xiangdong was rxing himself sitting on the balcony with a bottle of beer. “Ake,e over and keep an eye on my notebook.” sitting in the sofa, Jason called out to Ake.


    Ake rushed over while Jason got up, took a bottle of beer, walked to the balcony and sat down.


    “Chug it down,” Jason said.


    Jin Xiangdong turned to look at Jason and clinked his bottled against Jason’s. Then, he took a big gulp of beer.


    “I saw Professor Lu rushed out of your office with her eyes reddened this morning. What had happened to her?”


    Jin Xiangdong looked into the distance and gulped down the beer quietly.


    “Hey, I am asking you,” said Jason.


    “I am not sure if she is truly Lu Jia’er,” Jin Xiangdong answered.


    “What are you saying? I am sure she is Lu Jia’er, but what had happened to her?” Jason asked.


    “I want to know it too.” Jin Xiangdong’s mind had been revolving around Lu Jia’er ever since he left office.


    Jason scratched his head. He was bogged down with too many thoughts in his mind in the past two days.


    “Would Professor Lu be deeply hypnotized?” After pondering for a while, Jason said.


    “Hypnosis?” Jin Xiangdong turned his head slowly after hearing Jason’s words.


    “I watched a movie about a woman who hypnotizes her boyfriend to steal a famous painting. At the end, the man didn’t realize that he was actually hypnotized by his girlfriend,”Jason went on saying.


    Jason trulycked summarizing skills. Jin Xiangdong was aware of this movie—”Trance”. The movie was about a staff of an auction house, Simon, and a theft gang who wanted to steal a famous painting. However, Simon suffered a blow to his head and lost memory during an action. As Simon was the only person who knew where the stolen painting was hidden, the theft gang suspected that Simon was actually pretending to have lost his memory and wanted to take the lion ‘ s share of it. Hence, they found a female hypnotist to help him regain his memory. The female hypnotist had quickly found a way to “turn on” Simon’s brain, but the ending was truly beyond expectation. Not only was the theft gang hypnotized, the same went for Simon. At the end, the female hypnotist had swallowed up the famous painting alone.


    Hypnosis had always been regarded as something mysterious. Psychologists had exined that if hypnosis were used properly, It could help to release stress and anxiety as well as developing positive attitude. However, hypnosis could somehow be a mode of crime.


    Lu Jia’er’s reaction was too weird and Jin Xiangdong would never kill any possibilities. He quickly got up, walked past Jason and got out of the balcony.


    “Where are you going?” Watching Jin Xiangdong leaving, Jason asked.


    “Make a phone call,” Jin Xiangdong responded.


    Of all Jin Xiangdong’s acquaintances, there was only one person in the psychology field and was proficient in hypnosis—Yuan Miaomiao’s grandmother, Professor Fang Yu.


    Professor Fang Yu was a profound hypnotist in China. Although Jin Xiangdong was quite close with the Yuan family, he had never visited Yuan Miaomiao’s grandmother. Hence, he could only give a call to Yuan Miaomiao.


    Yuan Miaomiao was truly shocked when she received Jin Xiangdong’s call. She had never hidden her feelings toward Jin Xiangdong, but Jin Xiangdong had rejected her rationally. Since then, she was greatly dejected for a while. As it happened not long ago,when she received his call, her hands were trembling with excitement.


    “Brother Xiangdong!”


    “Miaomiao, can I have your grandmother’s phone number?” Jin Xiangdong asked forthrightly as soon as he heard her voice.


    “My grandmother’s phone number? Alright, I’ll read it out for you.” Yuan Miaomiao gave him her grandmother’s phone number immediately.


    “Brother Xiangdng, why do you look for my grandmother?” Jin Xiangdong memorized it quickly. Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Yuan Miaomiao asked.


    “I want to consult her on some matter,” Jin Xiangdong answered.


    “I see. Let me talk to my grandma first, she never answers a stranger’s call. You can call herter,” Yuan Miaomiao said.


    “Alright, thank you.” Jin Xiangdong thanked Yuan Miaomiao.


    Yuan Miaomiao gave a call to her grandmother, Fang Yu, immediately after she hung up the phone.


    “I have talked to my grandmom. You can call her now.” A few minutester, Yuan Miaomiao contacted Jin Xiangdong.


    “Alright, thanks a lot!” Jin Xiangdong thanked Yuan Miaomiao again. He hung up the phone without talking further.


    Hearing disconnected tone, Yuan Miaomiao still did not put down the phone. She was still enjoying his voice that was echoing in her ears.


    Yuan Miaomiao had gotten Jin Xiangdong’s phone number for three years and she had buried her feelings toward him for three years. All these years, Jin Xiangdong had never contacted her. There were a few times that she braced herself up and gave him a call, but Jin Xiangdong seemed to be very busy and his response was cold and distant. Humans were such a strange creature. The more he ignored her, the more she loved him.


    As the feelings for him grew with time, even if she wanted to cover it up, traces could be found everywhere. At the end, Yuan Miaomiao’s grandfather—Yuan Xin had even approached Jin Xiangdong and only to know that Jin Xiangdong already had a girlfriend.
