Chapter 362: Chapter 361: Tampering with Memories (7)
Regarding the unknown memories, she indeed felt at a loss and resistant, but... the frequent dreams, carrying countless doubts, she ultimately could not ignore them. Moreover, she had never been someone to evade reality. Whether those two months were good or bad, she wanted to know.
Cheng Ziyang quietly listened to Dong Xin Yan’s decision, paused for a few seconds, his lips slightly curled as if wanting to smile but unable to form an arc. After a while, he slowly nodded, "Alright."

Cheng Ziyang took Dong Xin Yan to a private clinic the next day. Since they had made an appointment in advance, Dong Xin Yan directly had a consultation with the doctor.
After understanding her situation, the doctor expressed great interest, willing to give it a try to help her recover her memory. However, hypnosis is a slow therapy, only possible bit by bit, requiring patience and persistence.
Dong Xin Yan agreed to everything.
The doctor took out a contract, handed it to Dong Xin Yan, and said, "If there’s no issue, please, Miss Dong, read through this contract and sign it. Then, we can start the hypnosis."
After taking the contract, Dong Xin Yan carefully perused it. The contract’s content was generally a statement of personal will, proving that she willingly accepted hypnosis in a clear state of mind and was not under any improper coercion.
After Dong Xin Yan finished reading, the doctor handed over a pen.
Her hand clenched slightly, then she picked up the pen, turned to the last page of the contract, and was about to sign under "Party B" when Cheng Ziyang suddenly held her hand.
Dong Xin Yan was stunned, glanced sideways.
Cheng Ziyang’s gaze was deep, seemingly stained with many complex glimmers. He pursed his lips and spoke in a low voice, "Xinxin, do you... do you want to think it over again?"
Once hypnosis begins, there’s no turning back.
Because, this hypnosis was not truly meant to awaken Dong Xin Yan’s past memories, but to confuse, cover, and alter her memories.
She would regain her memory, but it would be altered.
When he agreed with Zhou Yalin, he was very determined. He didn’t want to lose her, so he didn’t want her to recall the past, remember her feelings for Gu Ningyi, or discover his deceit.
But these days, watching her conflict and fear, watching her struggle and still choose to face the past, it indicated that the past was important and mattered to her.
He had once let her down, and now... could he be selfish once more?
Listening to Cheng Ziyang’s words, Dong Xin Yan thought he was worried about her and smiled slightly, "Ziyang, I’ve thought very clearly. I don’t want to live in riddles anymore. I want to know everything that happened before. You don’t need to worry about me. I can face it."
With that, she broke free from Cheng Ziyang’s hand, and carefully wrote down her name, word by word.

Since hearing the conversation between Cheng Ziyang and Dong Xin Yan that day, Yuan Shi became more and more uneasy, more and more anxious and irritable. However, she had no one to discuss this matter with, because Zhou Yalin didn’t know about her drunken confession. So she could only find a way on her own. Thinking it over repeatedly, the only solution was: to find out who Dong Xin Yan’s primary psychologist was and then bribe him. As long as he didn’t treat Dong Xin Yan, she wouldn’t recover her memory.
Yuan Shi hired a private detective to follow Dong Xin Yan. After a few days, they found out which psychologist was treating her.
Only, she didn’t expect, this doctor... she just happened to know.
