"Grayson Quinn!" Mason Nightshade's voice dropped, and Grayson realized he had taken the joke too far and corrected his tone, "There could be many reasons for this, are you saying she woke up and suddenly changed her personality?"

"Yes." Mason said in a deep voice.

"Then she might be sleepwalking." Grayson suggested.

Mason's brow furrowed, "Sleepwalking?"

"Yes." Grayson replied, "Many people have a misconception about sleepwalking, thinking that sleepwalkers stumble around like blind people with obvious signs. But actually, their eyes may be half-open or fully open, and their behavior is no different from a normal person's. There was once a sleepwalking patient in F Nation who sleepwalked for 20 years. During this time, he found a job in Country Y, got married, and had a son. It wasn't until one day, twenty years later, that he returned home and spoke to his wife about his missing twenty years without any knowledge of it."

"Are you saying that if Aurelia is sleepwalking, it's possible she wouldn't remember what happened now when she wakes up in the morning?" Mason caught the key point and asked.

Grayson lazily responded with a "hmm," catching the gossiping undertone in Mason's words, he raised his voice slightly, "You didn't do something you don't want your wife to know, did you?"

Mason's ears turned red instantly, but his voice remained cold, a bit annoyed as he lowly roared, "Mind your own business, stop gossiping!"

As sharp as Grayson, despite Mason's good disguise, he still detected a trace of panic in his calm voice.

That's a rare thing.

Mason wouldn't admit it verbally, but Grayson had already figured it out in his heart. He opened WeChat and posted on his Moments.

"Brother Yu is doing something unspeakable with the sister-in-law."

As soon as the status was sent, it instantly sparked a wave of night owls up late.

But...

Grayson disappeared again.

Then, a string of cursing comments followed below.

Grayson chuckled smugly, then heard Mason's voice coming through the phone again, "Does sleepwalking cause harm to the body?"

"Harm...," Grayson dragged his words, "There are actually many reasons that cause sleepwalking. Mainly, the cerebral cortex is too excited, causing sleepwalking, but there's another reason..."

Grayson's voice paused for a moment, "If someone has experienced some painful things and suppresses these emotions in their subconscious for a long time, when it accumulates to a certain extent, it will be released in this way. However, this only appears in people who have suffered significant pain and have a huge psychological shadow."

Sensing Mason's silence, Grayson continued without pause, "You can think of it as mild symptoms of dissociative identity disorder. It hasn't reached the severity of a mental or personality disorder, but it's not a good long-term solution either. It's best to find a way to release emotions like this, but if they can't be released, or if the symptoms are too severe, one might get trapped in it."

"Be more specific." Mason said in a deep voice, knowing Grayson had more to say.

"Do you remember the example I gave earlier? Twenty years, and this is when they woke up. If they didn't wake up, it could be for a lifetime." Grayson yawned and felt sleepy again.

Mason's late-night harassment didn't make him feel a bit guilty, he didn't get to hear any gossip, but learned a bunch of medical knowledge instead. Luckily, he had read books on such topics when he studied psychology.

"Do you have more to ask?" Grayson didn't hear a response, only the rustling sound that seemed like a phone hanging up, he reminded again, "Hey, if it's really your wife, pay attention to it. It's good to have this way to vent, but don't let her symptoms worsen. It's best to find the root cause."
