Chapter 494: Know a Little Bit

“Things have come to this, and you blame me, the teachers, and the school. Yet, you don’t think that this is what you deserved.” Tan Mo took a step forward. “If you did not have the intention to harm others, you would not be investigated. If you could admit your mistake in time, and not think about destroying evidence, you would not have been caught red-handed in this embarra.s.sing manner.”
“The situation you are in now is only because you did wrong and not because someone framed you.”
However, Lin f.u.xi did not listen at all.
She gritted her teeth and rushed to the balcony. “Tan Mo, you said so much, but don’t you just want to chase me away? The way you frame your words sounded nice as if you do not have any responsibility.”
“I just want to ask you one question. Are you willing to forgive me or not? If you are willing, tell the school. With President Mu valuing you so much, as long as you say it, the school will give me a light punishment,” Lin f.u.xi said. “I hoped that nothing would happen to me. I might not be able to compete for scholars.h.i.+ps and some events in the future. The school will not choose me to partic.i.p.ate, and I could bear with all that…”
“As long as the school does not expel me,” Lin f.u.xi said.
“If you do not agree, then I will jump from here!” Lin f.u.xi pointed to the balcony. “Do not think that people won’t die from the second floor. It might still happen that I die.”
Qin Muye opened her mouth and softly asked Ming Yeqing, “Is she crazy? How does she benefit this way? Is being expelled by the school more important than losing her life? She would have nothing if she lost her life.”
“There is indeed a case of people dying by jumping from the second floor,” Ming Yeqing quietly said. “The ribs get broken and happen to stab into the internal organs.”
“Even without this kind of happening, which has a low probability, getting injured or paralyzed is also possible,” Ming Yeqing said.
“No matter what, it is not worth it,” Qin Muye said softly.
“Moreover, she wants to use this to threaten Momo and the school,” Ming Yeqing said. “No matter if she jumps from the second or 20th floor, it is not a good thing.”
“Lin f.u.xi!” Mr. Ji and the others had stern expressions and shouted in panic.
Lin f.u.xi saw Tan Mo walking toward her and did not stop her while she sat on the balcony railing.
“I advise you to keep your distance from me. Otherwise, if you touch me slightly and I drop down, you will have no excuses,” Lin f.u.xi said harshly. “Tan Mo, you just have to say if you agree or not.”
Unexpectedly, Lin f.u.xi had just finished speaking when Tan Mo caught Lin f.u.xi’s elbow.
Lin f.u.xi had yet to react and realize when Tan Mo reached her hand out.
Tan Mo secretly sent her magic through Lin f.u.xi’s elbow into her body.
She gradually calmed down Lin f.u.xi’s mood bit by bit and started to hypnotize her. “Lin f.u.xi, calm down. Using threats will not solve the problem. It may even hurt you. No matter what happens, never use your life and safety as a wager. After all, your life is yours, and you only have one.”
“Let’s calm down.” Tan Mo’s voice got softer and slower like she was telling a bedtime story to a child to get the child to sleep. “There is always a solution to a matter. Throwing a tantrum is only venting what you feel in the moment. You must remember that no matter when never take your life casually.”
“You must remember these words and never forget them in your life,” Tan Mo said softly and slowly.
The harshness on Lin f.u.xi’s face faded. Her features slowly returned to their normal position, and her expression calmed down.
She even looked a bit dazed. She looked like a hypnotized person.
“Get down from the balcony now. Everyone is worried,” Tan Mo said. Lin f.u.xi unexpectedly got down from the railing of the balcony obediently and followed Tan Mo into the dormitory unit.
Tan Mo let go of her hand. Lin f.u.xi suddenly awoke from her hypnotized state.
She blinked and was stunned for a while. She then realized the current situation.
When did she enter the dormitory?
However, when she wanted to go out again, she had no intentions of using any threats.
When she thought of jumping off the balcony, there would be a voice in her head to not take her life casually.
She did not know why, but that voice seemed to be her own yet did not seem to be hers at the same time.
However, when she heard it, she could not think about jumping off anymore.
Of course, she did not have that intention originally. She only wanted to threaten the school and Tan Mo.
However, now, she did not have that intention anymore.
Even if it was just a threat, she could not say it anymore.
“Tan Mo, this…” Mr. Hong was stunned.
How did that happen?
Why was it as if… Had Tan Mo hypnotized Lin f.u.xi?
Tan Mo did not explain and said, “Teachers, don’t worry, Lin f.u.xi will not take her life lightly anymore.”
Mr. Ji nodded and said, “Let Ms. Wen speak with Lin f.u.xi later.”
Ms. Wen was a psychologist, and she was licensed to practice psychology.
“You all take note of student Lin f.u.xi’s state,” Mr. Ji advised.
Tan Mo, Meng Yuxi, and Jin Yuelin all nodded.
“You rest well,” Mr. Ji said to Lin f.u.xi.
They did not know how, but Lin f.u.xi did not have any agitated emotions now.
Even after she heard Mr. Ji speak, she was still very calm.
Mr. Ji glanced at Lin f.u.xi suspiciously and gestured with his eyes for Tan Mo to follow them outside.
Of course, even if Mr. Ji did not hint at her, Tan Mo would still go out.
That was because Ming Yeqing and Qin Muye were also around.
Moreover, Wei Zhiqian was at the entrance of their dormitory.
Tan Mo followed the teachers out.
Wei Zhiqian directly took up the spot beside Tan Mo.
Qin Muye stood on the other side of her.
Beside Qin Muye was Ming Yeqing.
Mr. Ji was silent for a moment.
Could they at least give the teachers a little s.p.a.ce?
“Tan Mo, did you hypnotize Lin f.u.xi just now?” Mr. Ji could not s.n.a.t.c.h the spot from Wei Zhiqian, and he was too embarra.s.sed to s.n.a.t.c.h a spot from Qin Muye, a little lady.
Tan Mo admitted it graciously. “Yes, I know a little bit in the aspect of psychology.”
Mr. Ji was shocked.
He had no idea how what “know a little bit” was.
Actually, Tan Mo did not know psychology.
She had purely relied on her healing magic to gain a little advantage just now.
She had tried before. Since her healing magic could soothe the hearts of people, then, on the same basis, it should also have some hypnotizing properties.
Hypnotism could only be used when someone was in a situation of being extremely relaxed and unguarded.
That was the only way her magic could do that.
Since she could speak to plants, she had tried it on them.
Of course, she had communicated it to the plants beforehand and obtained their consent to do so.
She was indeed successful on her tries.
Of course, it was more complex with humans, but it didn’t mean that she could not do it.
