Vice President Zong knew that Minister Ji was not the kind of person who said one thing and meant another, so he smiled and talked about the past.
"When Comrade Zhan came to propose marriage, my husband and I refused. Although our clan and the Zhan family are old acquaintances, my father-in-law often shook his head when he spoke of the Zhan family. I don't understand why, but I have kept this in mind.
So, when Comrade Zhan came to propose marriage, I refused. Comrade Zhan also wanted to save face, so we didn't see each other for about a year after being rejected. Then we ran into each other at the hospital and chatted for a while. A few days later, she proposed marriage to my family again on behalf of her son.
While I was away, Comrade Zhan told my husband that I was a soft-hearted person and not prone to saying no, so she agreed to let the two children meet. Gao Yang was a good-looking man, and my daughter fell in love with him the moment they met. Unable to persuade her, I asked to meet the parents first.
I was thinking, if Ji Gaoyang's parents don't like each other, I would rather break them up than let them be together. Fortunately, Ji Gaoyang has a father like you. Although you don't talk much and didn't say much the whole time, you can tell at a glance that you are steady and reliable.
And I can see that Comrade Zhan is a little afraid of you. I believe that as long as there is one reliable person in a family, my daughter should not be able to endure a big injustice. A few years later, it was indeed the case.
After Vice President Zong finished speaking, she saw that Minister Ji was still listening to her quietly without even drinking a sip of porridge, and she started laughing.
"When I first met you, you were like this. You didn't talk much, but when women spoke, you listened attentively, without any disdain for them. Just because of this, I knew my daughter wouldn't be wronged."
Minister Ji hadn't expected Vice President Zong to speak so highly of him. "It's my fault. I'm usually too busy with work and don't maintain close family ties. If I have the chance in the future, I'll change that."
Ji Gaoyang was about to enter when he heard Minister Ji's words. His eyes turned red and he turned around to deal with his emotions.
By the time the two of them had almost finished their breakfast, Ji Gaoyang had not yet dealt with his emotions.
Vice President Zong said, "Gao Yang is a good boy."
Minister Ji nodded. "He's a filial child. I don't know who his parents are, but I think he looks more like them."
After hearing Minister Ji speak openly about these things, Vice President Zong said, "Gao Yang asked me for help last night, saying that he couldn't remember something?"
Minister Ji nodded, "Yes."
Vice President Zong is a doctor. In front of the doctor, Minister Ji did not hide his illness and told the truth that he only remembered his name was Ji Jingshan, but he had no memory of Ji Huaishan.
Sometimes, when I think of the past, I even feel like I am endorsing something.
It's like he lives in a book.
Vice President Zong frowned when he heard this. "My dear, do you know clinical hypnosis?"
Minister Ji's heart twitched. "Clinical hypnosis?"
"My father is a psychologist who specializes in counseling soldiers on their post-war psychological well-being. He originally wanted me to learn from him and become a psychologist.
But I was young at that time and knew little about psychology. In addition, there were always some weird people coming to my house, so I thought that psychologists dealt with people with mental problems, that is, neurotics.
Later, when my father passed away suddenly, I didn't even get to claim his body. I could only look through his belongings and remember him. That's when I learned what psychology is. One of those things is clinical hypnosis. If Minister Ji is interested, I can lend you the books my father left behind."
Minister Ji agreed gratefully.
After quickly finishing his meal, he followed Vice President Zong to his father's study.
"You can read the books here freely, but you must take good care of them."
Minister Ji agreed to all of his requests, and only then did Vice President Zong go back to work with peace of mind.
Minister Ji looked through Mr. Zong's collection of books, and found that almost all of them were books on psychology.
Because of the nature of Zong's work, his study was not affected by the movement at all, and the collection of books in it was very rich, even including many foreign books.
Minister Ji looked through the books one by one, and finally found a handwritten copy of "Clinical Hypnosis" on the top bookshelf.
After reading the first chapter, Minister Ji felt that this book should have been written by Zong Xu himself.
"My mother is afraid of dogs, but I just love them. I threw a tantrum several times but couldn't get my mother to agree to let me keep a dog. One day, my mother kicked me out with the dog.
The Taoist priest who was napping in the alley near my house was woken up by me. After asking me why I was crying, he said he could help me.
After he met my mother, she seemed like a different person. She loved the dog more than she loved me (I suddenly didn't want to keep a dog anymore).
In order to make my mother love me more, I asked the Taoist priest to teach me.
Fortunately, my family is not short of money, so we can afford to support another husband.
In this way, the Taoist priest became my teacher and taught me hypnosis.
He said he made my mother change her mind.
Because he can use hypnosis to make people with animal phobia like animals, he replaces fear with love..."
Minister Ji became more and more frightened the more he looked at it.
He wondered if there was a clinical hypnotist in him.
Minister Ji took the book and left the clan.
Minister Ji rushed to the Revolutionary Committee building, and many people greeted him along the way.
Minister Ji pushed open the last office at the end of the corridor and asked, "Has the person who is investigating me arrived?"
"Ji Tou, please take a seat. The investigators haven't arrived yet, but I just heard that the higher-ups are making a big investment to help you recover your memory, so they've specially brought in a corruption investigation team to help you."
Minister Ji sneered. "Come on, that investigation team has been in there several times, right? They haven't found anything yet. They were fooled by their sugar-coated bullets. You might as well rely on me to save myself instead of relying on them."
"Yes, yes, Ji Tou, you'll know whether it's true or not once you make a move. Otherwise, I'll help you get rid of the investigation team later?"
Minister Ji nodded. He had found the key book. Once he understood what was written in the book, he would definitely know what was wrong with him.
By then, if I can trick Ji Gaoyang into revealing his secrets and then deceive Zhan Tingqi, then it will be easy to catch him, right?
Minister Ji read the book attentively, turned to the first page, and glanced at the preface written by Elder Zong himself.
Flip to the back...what's written here?!
It's all full of obscure technical terms, what the hell does he understand?!
Minister Ji waved to Director Lu and said, "Look at what's written on it. Do you understand?"
Director Lu came over and said, "I don't understand..."
Okay.
Just fire a cannon.
"Why haven't the investigators arrived yet? With this attitude, they don't look like people who can get things done."
Minister Ji pushed the book aside and rubbed his eyebrows from time to time.
He desperately wanted to recover his lost memories and go to the next door to see the baby. He was so irritable that he couldn't control his temper.
"I'll give them another call to urge them."
If Ji Gaoyang were here, he would definitely be shocked.
This is how his father, who suffered so much, was investigated?!
"Ji Tou, the investigation team is here. They're already in the corridor."
Minister Ji nodded and said, "Be careful and act more realistically towards me later."
Director Lu gave Minister Ji a reassuring look.
When he heard the knock on the door, Director Lu even took away the enamel cup in front of Minister Ji.
Minister Ji: ...You don't have to act so convincingly. It's okay for him, the person under investigation, to drink some water, right?
"Come in."
Before Minister Ji saw anyone, he heard someone cursing on the road.
"How do you do things? It's already so late, why are you here so late? Why don't you wait until we're dead before coming?"
After Director Lu finished scolding people, he glanced at Minister Ji to seek credit.
How about it? Just ask, is he good at scolding?
Minister Ji gave an affirmative look and turned to see Ji Nanfeng.
