“Some people pass out. Others feel exhausted and want to sleep, and sleep so deeply that they have trouble waking up.”
“What?” Yun Shishi exclaimed and turned ashen.
It suddenly came back to her, the day when Gong Fan was trying to make the desserts to fulfill Youyou’s promise to Natalia. However, he had suddenly fainted. When he woke up, he had complained of being tired and sleepy. She had taken him in her arms and coaxed him to sleep, but right up till now, he had not woken up again.
It had been a long time since she last saw Gong Fan. Yun Shishi’s heart wrenched at the thought.
Alice saw noticed Yun Shishi’s troubled expression. “What’s the matter?” she asked worriedly. “You look terrible all of a sudden.”
!!
“So it looks like Gong Fan was also hypnotized by Natalia’s other personality?”
Alice winced at that remark. “What do you mean?!”
Yun Shishi immediately told Alice the details of the incident, without going into the events of that day..
When Alice heard this, her eyes flashed momentarily, and her expression grew grave.
Yun Shishi’s chest tightened when she observed Alice’s troubled expression.
“I actually have no way of knowing what the reason is for Gong Fan’s sudden disappearance. He hasn’t woken up ever since that day. I’m so afraid that he’s gone, gone from Youyou’s body. But I can’t ask and I can’t see. I feel nervous every day but there’s nothing I can do. However, as you’ve said, and I’ve thought about it carefully, it’s true that Natalia was there the day of the incident. And basically the symptoms you mentioned match the symptoms that Gong Fan had. I suspect… Could he have been hypnotized by Natalia?”
“It wasn’t Natalia.” The actor spoke suddenly.
Yun Shishi turned to him as he said, “Perhaps it was Natalisa. Natalia could never have done such a thing.”
“You don’t know her well, do you?”
“No.” The actor was adamant. “It can’t be Natalia. Otherwise, why didn’t Natalia hypnotize me?”
“…” There was a silence.
Alice couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something fishy going on, but her thoughts were all over the place. It was as if some idea had flashed through her mind, but she simply could not grasp it.
“And Gong Fan has not woken up since then?” Alice asked once more.
Yun Shishi nodded grimly, her voice trembling. “I… miss him alot.”
For a long time, she’d suppressed her emotions, unwilling to let them show in the presence of Youyou and Mu Yazhe. But she’d been worried, too. Even though she kept reassuring herself that it would be good for Youyou if Gong Fan’s personality disappeared.
Wasn’t that what she would have been most happy to see in the past? But no matter how much she tried to reassure herself, she couldn’t convince herself. On the other hand, she was afraid that her indecisiveness may end up hurting the boy.
“Could Gong Fan… have disappeared?” Yun Shishi looked at Alice with reddened eyes, like someone desperate in the face of adversity.
Alice looked at the woman steadily, her brow furrowed, but she didn’t know how to answer. She pretended to be calm, but the truth was, she didn’t know what was wrong with Gong Fan.
On the other side of the door, Youyou stood staring silently, through the crack in the doorway, at the distraught woman in the living room. His fingertips trembled.
