Do not hesitate

Chapter 18

After tidying up and taking a shower, the two of them nestled on the bed, chatting about what happened today.

"You mean she came to you to remind you to be careful?" Si Luochen asked while holding Xiang Qiantong in his arms.

Xiang Qiantong nodded in response.

"Then did she say a solution? After all, she should know best what her brother did."

"No, she just asked me to do my own thing. Don't worry about things that have nothing to do with me."

"It's pretty conscientious."

"...she's a nice person, Luo Chen." Although she really wanted to explain for Gu Qing, but when she said it, she found something was wrong.

Sure enough, the woman behind her stopped talking.

"Luochen?" Xiang Qiantong was about to straighten up to look at her, but was hugged tightly by Si Luochen.

"Don't move around, it's comfortable to hold."

With a light cough: "...you don't like her?" Xiang Qiantong asked.

"Who?" asked knowingly.

"Gu Qing."

"She's your friend. Tell me what I like and don't like. I just think she should have thought of this earlier. It's just that she just informed you today. Shaoke will call me at night. The matter is too closely related." While talking, he remembered something, and asked again: "By the way, do you still remember whose call Gu Qing's father answered in your office? What was the content?"

Xiang Qiantong thought about it for a while, and briefly told Si Luochen what happened that day: "I heard the voice was a man, but I couldn't hear the content. But Mr. Gu's original words were'Don't even think about it, even if I If you die, I won’t give you anything. Don’t think I don’t know what you did outside.” Then the man said something, Mr. Gu was taken aback for a moment, then blushed and fainted.”

After Si Luochen finished listening, he said calmly, "This tone sounds like his son's."

Xiang Qiantong was a little disappointed: "I guessed it too, it's just... just because of the money, I really pissed off my father to death, really..."

"Since ancient times, people have died for money and birds for food, and there are no fathers and sons in front of interests. As psychiatrists, do we see little of these realities? Mental illness is different from mental illness. Those people treat their family members as mental patients and send them to mental hospitals. They have never appeared again. It seems that their existence is a stain." With a snort, he continued: "It's just...we are willing to choose to believe in the beauty of the world." Si Luochen clasped Xiang Qiantong's waist, and pressed against her In his ear, he whispered drunkenly.

No one would talk about these cruel and realistic topics in such a gentle and pleasant way, right?

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." The pleasant voice behind him sounded again.

Xiang Qiantong knew that intervening in this matter with the strength of the Si family would naturally make it safe.But Xiang Qiantong didn't want to, she didn't want to have anything to do with Si Luochen's family, this was her pride.

"Luochen, I'll take care of it, let me take care of it myself?"

Si Luochen naturally understood the meaning of these words, hooked the corners of his mouth, slowly slid his hand down Xiang Qiantong's arm, took her slender and slender hand, put it on his mouth and kissed it lightly, to comfort him: "I believe in Shaoke's ability. Let's see what she can find first, and we will figure out the rest together. I am basically out of the Si family here now, and I can't help you if I want to. I can only stand by your side Be with you...don't think I can't help you with anything."

"How could it be? You are capable and beautiful. I don't know how many people want to marry you back home."

No matter what happens, as long as you are there, that's enough.

When Si Luochen heard this, he snorted softly, and said, "If you want to marry, I may not be able to marry. If you want to marry, you have to marry someone you like, don't you, Qiantong?"

Xiang Qiantong's face became hot again, and she was playing it off again.

"Luo Chen, stop making trouble, go to bed early. Tomorrow is a new week, a brand new start." Turning around, she looked at the woman behind her who was so beautiful that she would be shy at a glance.

Since crossing this distance, every time I look at her or be looked at by her, my heart beats faster. Is this the so-called feeling of being in love?

Si Luochen smiled very charmingly, his eyes were rippling, he stretched out one hand to hold Xiang Qiantong's face, moved closer, and gently kissed Xiang Qiantong's lips.

One in one, with a touch of fascination.

"Listen to you, go to sleep." Get into bed.

Xiang Qiantong held her heartbeat, lay down too, and turned off the light: "Good night."

"Good night."

The next day, Shen Lue specially came to the clinic as the person in charge of the rehabilitation center to talk with Anna and Professor Bobby about Si Luochen and Xiang Qiantong's external psychological counseling.For the clinic, having the support of the local state organization is more direct and effective than any big order, and the clinic's attitude towards Si Luochen and Xiang Qiantong has also undergone subtle changes.

A special celebration was held for this purpose. Professor Bobby ordered a big cake, and Professor Anna bought champagne.

The two of them have long been familiar with this, and society is already so realistic.

Susan felt very sad because of this, and she couldn't keep up with her work.Because she knew that no matter how hard she tried, she would not be able to pay for the cooperation project of the rehabilitation center, and her attitude towards Si Luochen and Xiang Qiantong was also a lot colder.

"Unhappy?" Xiang Qiantong asked after eating lunch together.

Si Luochen ate the sandwich without expression and replied, "Why, I'm used to it."

Since childhood, this kind of thing happened often, and Si Luochen has long been used to it.Conditions and status, reality and luck, these are obviously only things behind this person, but because it is enough to make some people deliberately stay away.

I don't know if it's this person they hate, or these things they don't have.

Looking up and seeing Xiang Qiantong opposite, the corners of her mouth pursed slightly.No matter what happens, she will be by her side.

For the next week, both Xiang Qiantong and Si Luochen entered a busy working state.But Xiang Qiantong found out that once Si Luochen puts himself into work, his whole person becomes very different, and he is even so serious that he forgets himself.

Either facing the patient, or looking at the case with no expression.She basically didn't speak to the rest of the clinic, including Xiang Qiantong.

Although Si Luochen usually speaks little and shows no expression, she still communicates with her colleagues, but now she can use words as precious as gold to describe her current state.

When I asked if I wanted to eat at noon, I only replied lightly: "I'm not hungry yet."

"..."

Xiang Qiantong kindly delivered the meal to her office, and she just said lightly, "Thank you."

"..."

But these cold appearances changed differently after get off work. Si Luochen would smile and take Xiang Qiantong's arm home, and occasionally they would go to the movies and have a supper together.

With this change in heat and cold, Xiang Qiantong jokingly said that she would give Si Luochen psychological counseling, but Si Luochen said with a downcast expression: "Qiantong, actually... I'm under a lot of pressure."

Xiang Qiantong looked at Si Luochen in confusion, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Thoughtful answer: "When I went to the rehabilitation center that day, I gave psychological counseling to a soldier, and I realized that I couldn't empathize with him. So I have been sitting in the office recently looking through the cases, but found that most of the cases in our clinic are for Families, careers, people with post-traumatic trauma, especially soldiers who have experienced combat, these are not useful at all. I worry that I am not qualified to work in rehab, or even qualified to help them."

It turned out that it was because of these, Xiang Qiantong stopped and grabbed Si Luochen and said, "Why don't you ask me, wouldn't it be faster for the two of us to think of a solution together?"

Si Luochen lowered his eyebrows, and responded lightly: "I have seen the cases you were in charge of, and you have dealt with many difficult patients, including patients with multiple personality splits. These are patients I have never been in contact with, and I have seen how you Diagnosing and treating patients and communicating with them, I found that you can completely think from their perspective and exchange ideas. Professionally, you are much better than me, and I began to suspect that my experience in China in the past few years is a lie Human."

She didn't expect Si Luochen to have such an unconfident side. "Luochen..." Xiang Qiantong couldn't bear to see her like this.

"So I want to find a solution by myself. I admit that I am not as good as you in many aspects, such as finding customers and contacting people in the circle. I am not as good as you in these entertainment matters, but I will rely on my own efforts to walk with you .” Such a serious expression, but with a trace of affection, Xiang Qiantong’s heart is full of sweetness.

"Stupid, all experience is the result of communication."

However, Si Luochen turned his face aside and blamed, "I don't want to."

"Then how about I recommend a few books to you? The content in the books is very good. I also learned some experience by reading these, huh?"

Si Luochen didn't object or agree. In Xiang Qiantong's eyes, this was considered acquiescence. He took her hand and walked on the way home, saying, "Gu Qing called me today, and she found out that her father died. The call I received that day was from her second brother, Gu Feng."

"……really."

"Some things about Gu Qing were discovered by Gu Feng, and he used this as a threat to make Gu Qing transfer all his assets to him."

"Was there any threat?"

Xiang Qiantong shook his head.

"I think there will be news from Shaoke soon. I'll talk about it when the time comes. It's been a little too quiet recently. It's not right." Generally, family turmoil will break out within three days after the death of the bearer, and now it has been more than a week. Still so calm, it seems that the opponent is very calm and wants to win with one blow.

"You mean, before the storm?"

Si Luochen nodded.

The two walked home hand in hand along the road, only to find a figure standing downstairs in Xiang Qiantong with a surprised expression on his face.

"Shao Ke?" They said in unison.
