The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

When she was sure that there would be no negative effects, Li Yuming let her daughter be hypnotized.

The doctor went back in and looked at the girl. He asked her to sit on the couch and be comfortable.

She didn't understand what the doctor was doing. All she saw was that he was holding a thin string with a big pearl attached at its end. He asked her to focus on it.

"Lanni, the pearl grew bigger. Did you see that?"

"Yes." Not only was it big, it was also getting closer to her. It was very beautiful….

A little girl sat on the bench outside her school, looking sad. "Why is mommy not here yet? The other kids are all in class."

She hugged her bag tightly. Just as she was about to leave, a man approached her. "Hello little girl, are you on your own?"

She cowered. "Mommy said to not speak to strangers."

The man laughed and took a candy from his pocket. "I'm not a stranger. Your mommy is a good friend of mine. Your mommy's surname is Li, right?"

Since he got it right, she was pleasantly stunned but she only lowered her guard a little. To make her believe him, the man showed her a photo of Li Yuming. To be exact, both of them were in the photo.

"Little girl, why are you on your own?" He finally asked.

"Mommy went to look for money to pay my school fees. She has not returned yet so the teacher said I cannot go to school."

The man rubbed her hair. "Don't worry. Since mommy is not here and she is my friend, I will pay your school fees for you, okay?"

Although she was only eight, she didn't think it was alright. "But that would bother uncle too much."

The man shook his head. "Not at all. Actually, my job is to make sure kids are not sent away from school for lack of school fees. Your mommy must have encountered some difficulties on her way here. In actual fact, she will owe me."

Since it was like that and she didn't want to miss classes either, she agreed. She was just a little girl and this uncle truly didn't look harmful. He looked friendly and even loving.

However, before he left, the man looked at her carefully. "Little princess, can I hug you?"

At the time, she didn't understand. She only knew that people will want to hug you if they liked you. She was such a cute child that everyone would want to rub her hair, pinch her cheeks, kiss her face and hold her. She didn't find it strange at all.

…

The scene in her mind changed. She was playing in the theme park with her mother when she saw that uncle again. The last time, she had forgotten to ask for his name.

As soon as she saw him, she happily blinked her eyes. "Un…"

However, the man signaled with a finger over his mouth for her to remain quiet. Not only that, he also hid away as soon as he saw Li Yuming following her line of site.

…

The scene quickly shifted to another.

This time, she was a grown up girl. A man was on her side. They were walking back home together. When they arrived at the familiar Li mansion, he kissed her cheek. "See you in school tomorrow."

She hugged him and went in. Just a minute later, she realized that she was still holding his phone. She rushed back out to give it to him…. Only to see a woman give him what looked like a stack of bank notes.

Her mind was in a swirl.

"It hurts…" she g.r.o.a.n.e.d. Her head felt like it had been run over by a truck.

"It's so painful.."

"Go to sleep." The doctor said.

Outside, Li Yuming was anxiously waiting. As soon as the doctor came out, she rushed up to him. "How is she, did she recover her memory?"

"You have nothing to worry about. Because she wants to remember it, it's easier to make her recover all of her memory."

"That's great news. So… she did remember something?"

"From my observation, she has remembered two fragments. It all depends on what she wants to know the most."

"Only two?" Li Yuming, who was waiting to hear that her Lanni was fully recovered, sounded disappointed.

"Don't be impatient. This is in fact better than expected. Most of people in this case wouldn't make sense of anything in the first hypnosis."

"I see."

When Li Lanni finally woke up, she was dizzy. "Where am I?"

Li Yuming was overjoyed. "You finally woke up. We are in hospital. The doctor said we could go home when you wake up."

"Mom, I'm hungry."

She had slept for a long time. Of course she would be hungry. Li Yuming had brought over a bowl of soup. "When we get out of here, I will cook you more delicious dishes."

Li Lanni drank it obediently.

Although she still had amnesia, some mysteries could now be solved.

She had been wondering whether her father ever cared about her and her mother.

From what she remembered now, that man she met when she was a kid must be her father, right?

If not, how could a random man care about her so much? And why would he follow her and her mother? She might not have known it as a child but when this picture flashed in her memory, she thought she could see paternal love in his eyes.

Luckily, she could still remember this event after waking up. It was good progress.

Her heart swelled with happiness. Her d.e.s.i.r.e to find him became even wilder.
