————————-
In the evening, at the Ye family villa, Xiaomuqing was drying her hair in her room after a bath, while Ye Ziming was still showering in the bathroom.
While Ye Ziming was showering, Xiaomuqing held her phone and repeatedly watched a video.
At the same time, on the table in front of her, there was a strange pocket watch. This was a prop she had prepared, imitating a ‘hypnosis master’ from the video.
“This should be enough.”
After watching the video for the Nth time, Xiaomuqing had memorized every detail and planned to use it on her good brother later.
Coincidentally, just as she closed the video, her good brother walked out of the bathroom after his shower.
“What’s wrong?”
Noticing Xiaomuqing looking at him, Ye Ziming asked with a puzzled expression.
“Nothing, just handing the hairdryer to the boss.”
With a sly smile, she made space for her good brother to dry his hair, then sat aside and watched him with a silly grin.
To be honest, her good brother was really handsome and had a great physique. She felt like she could never get enough of looking at him.
However, she didn’t dare to look directly at her good brother. Every time he turned his head, Xiaomuqing would quickly avert her gaze and pretend nothing was happening.
Obviously, Ye Ziming had noticed Xiaomuqing’s actions and thought to himself, “What mischief is this se Luoli up to now?”
Seeing that he didn’t expose her, he continued to dry his hair as if he hadn’t noticed someone secretly watching him.
His hair was short, so he quickly dried it and put away the hairdryer.
“Boss, come here for a bit.”
Seeing that her good brother had put away the hairdryer, Xiaomuqing beckoned him over and asked him to sit by the bed.
At this moment, she was very nervous and a little embarrassed, because what she was about to do was something she had always been afraid to do.
She knew that her good brother liked her, and she knew that he had done many things for her, but due to a small knot in her heart, she had never been able to confess her feelings.
Coincidentally, she had seen a hypnosis tutorial video online, which led to tonight’s plan.
“What is it?”
With a face full of confusion, Ye Ziming listened to Xiaomuqing’s instructions and came to sit by the bed.
“Ahem, look at this!”
With her hands behind her back, as soon as her good brother sat down and looked at her with wide eyes, Xiaomuqing suddenly took out the pocket watch.
Then, she carefully followed the instructions in the video, swaying the pocket watch and saying some strange things to her good brother.
Through these words, Ye Ziming guessed that it was hypnosis, but unfortunately, he felt nothing and his mind was very clear.
Out of curiosity and doting on Xiaomuqing, he decided to play along with her hypnosis game and pretend to be hypnotized.
“Boss…”
After completing the whole procedure, Xiaomuqing noticed a change in her good brother’s eyes, making them look a bit vacant.
Seeing this, she was a little excited because people in the video looked like this after being hypnotized, with vacant eyes.
“…”
When Xiaomuqing called out, Ye Ziming didn’t answer, just stared blankly ahead.
“Did it actually work?”
Seeing that her good brother didn’t answer her, Xiaomuqing was happy but also a little doubtful, as this was her first time trying something like this.
Muttering to herself and then thinking, Xiaomuqing felt that she could try to verify it.
“Ahem, Boss, go get a pack of… no, get me two packs of biscuits.”
She had finished one pack of biscuits today, so theoretically, her good brother shouldn’t give her any more snacks.
So when she saw her good brother stand up and go out of the room to get her two packs of biscuits, she almost jumped for joy.
“Hehe, thank you, Boss.”
Having received two packs of biscuits, Xiaomuqing didn’t rush to eat them. Instead, like a hamster, she hid them away to eat later.
Little did she know that while she was hiding the biscuits, Ye Ziming had been watching her and felt a sweat break out.
This was because the place Xiaomuqing hid the biscuits was the drawer where he kept his BYTs. Was this the legendary: the most dangerous place is the safest place?
“emmm, now, hug me and let me sit on your lap.”
After hiding the biscuits, Xiaomuqing returned to the bed and, looking at her good brother sitting on the bed, said to him in a commanding tone.
Hearing the ‘command’, Ye Ziming froze for a second, then did as Xiaomuqing said.
In a princess carry-like manner, he picked up Xiaomuqing and let her sit on his lap.
Then he felt her wrap her arms around him as he held her, and rubbed her head against him.
The soft touch and the scent of the shower gel from Xiaomuqing’s body made him feel flustered, and his heart seemed to be touched.
“Say, ‘Besides you, I will never like anyone else, not in this lifetime.'”
With extreme nervousness and a flushed face, Xiaomuqing leaned close to her good brother’s ear and whispered to him.
This was what she had planned to do tonight: while her good brother was hypnotized and unaware, she would quietly say, ‘I like you.’
This sentence had been in her heart for a very, very long time. She had always been afraid to say it, and also afraid to accept her good brother’s feelings.
Now that she had the chance, she wanted to try to express what was in her heart.
“Besides you, I will never like anyone else, not in this lifetime.”
As Ye Ziming uttered this sentence under Xiaomuqing’s ‘command’, a clear change appeared in his eyes.
Moreover, his hands couldn’t help but tighten slightly, wanting to hold Xiaomuqing tighter.
Since Xiaomuqing was leaning on Ye Ziming’s shoulder, she couldn’t see the slight curve of his lips when he said the sentence.
It was clear that Ye Ziming was secretly smiling.
“I like you too.”
Sitting in her good brother’s embrace, hugging him, Xiaomuqing whispered in his ear with an even softer voice.
After saying this, Xiaomuqing was so embarrassed that she wanted to explode, and buried her head in Ye Ziming’s shoulder.
Actually, there was something she had never said before: she liked being held by her good brother like this, and she liked it when he stroked her head.
Because it made her feel safe, she even wanted to be closer to him when sleeping.
Next, Xiaomuqing did nothing and said nothing, just hugged her ‘hypnotized’ good brother and quietly enjoyed the moment.
P.S.: Ye Ziming was also enjoying it.
She didn’t know how much time had passed. Xiaomuqing thought her good brother might be tired, considering her weight of almost ninety pounds.
So, with a satisfied smile, she nuzzled her good brother’s cheek again, and then took out her phone.
This time, she wanted to see how to ‘undo’ the hypnosis.
However, before undoing the hypnosis, she suddenly thought of something fun (naughty).
With that thought, she turned off the video, opened the recording function on her phone, and said to her good brother:
“Say, Master, please train me to be an ‘unruly’ person who only says ‘yingyingying’.”
With a face full of anticipation, Xiaomuqing brought her phone closer, wanting to record her good brother’s words completely.
In her mind, if he ever bullied her in the future, she would take out this recording and make him lose face on the spot!
‘Hahaha! I’m such a smart cookie!’
“Hmm? Speak.”
After laughing heartily to herself, Xiaomuqing found that her good brother hadn’t spoken, so she urged him.
But what she never expected was that Ye Ziming had not been hypnotized at all, and after hearing this sentence, he suddenly hugged her tightly.
“What are you saying?”
With eyes full of a dangerous aura, Ye Ziming turned his head to look at Xiaomuqing and asked with a smile.
He was ‘angry’ now, partly because of the
