CHAPTER 275: 275: SISTER XUE TONG DIDN’T SEND ANY MESSAGE

"Xue Tong Jie!"

When Tie San arrived, there were only Huang Shou and Gu Tong in the room. They had been chatting for ten minutes and had just paused their conversation.

Gu Tong crossed her legs and pointed to the sofa opposite, saying, "You two, sit down!"

The "you two" she referred to were naturally Zhao Yong and Tie San. After Zhao Yong brought Tie San over, he didn’t leave and remained there as well.

Tie San trembled as he sat down on the sofa, but in his heart, he had no idea. Similarly, he didn’t know why Gu Tong had called him over, so he asked, "Xue Tong Jie, what should we do for our next step?"

He really didn’t know what the next plan was. All he knew was that Gu Tong was one of the Fifth Master’s people, sent to kill Chuan Er, and had roped him into the scheme.

So, after Gu Tong tested his attitude towards Chuan Er, he made his stance clear and earned Gu Tong’s trust.

As he thought, Gu Tong gradually infiltrated the plan with him! However, her explanation of the plan was always a fleeting sketch, with the core parts omitted.

For instance, during the ’spell’ incident, Gu Tong only told him what to do! She never told him the real purpose behind those actions!

"I thought you were a smart man!"

At some point, Gu Tong had a women’s laser in her hand, playing with it continuously.

Tie San shivered, cold sweat streaming down, he sat up straight and said, "Without Xue Tong Jie’s instructions, I dare not act rashly..."

He knew his role plainly, he was just a pawn, controlled as other people’s game dictated. Just as he was in Chuan Er’s hands before, he was now in Gu Tong’s hands.

Gu Tong’s deep pupils were fixed on him, yet he could clearly see Tie San’s gulping movements. The corners of her lips slightly curled up, and she began to laugh—

In the narrow space, it was filled with Gu Tong’s silvery bell-like laughter, which entered everyone’s ears through the air, yet they didn’t feel joy but fear!

"I knew I wasn’t wrong about you! Tie San, indeed you’re an understanding person!"

The already terrified Tie San never imagined in his wildest dreams that Gu Tong would praise him, and in such a manner...

However, he also understood that he had dodged a bullet and was now completely safe!

"Thank you, Xue Tong Jie..." Yet this time, Tie San dared not say more! He obediently waited for Gu Tong’s orders; if she wanted a docile dog, he would meet her needs.

This is what’s called controlling the human psyche.

People often, in situations where they cannot resist and are forced, develop self-comforting emotions, even thoughts like ’it was always meant to be’ or ’this is his choice’!

Thus, Gu Tong skillfully exploited these human weaknesses, changing Tie San’s thoughts through repeated pressures, and even controlling him at key emotional points, making him feel an inexplicable sense of trust!

"Now, Chuan Er has already lured Devil King away! We’re left with the task of transporting the equipment, gather the brothers in a while, and let’s prepare to be on our way!"

Gu Tong seized the timing and issued this command, yet, upon saying this, Tie San’s face darkened, and he looked troubled.

"Xue Tong Jie... it’s not that I’m unwilling to cooperate with you... but most of the manpower on the mountain is Chuan Er’s subordinates, I can’t manipulate them... If they find out there’s a problem, then we will be in great danger..."
