A heartbeat, a lifetime

Chapter 30 Just because of you (2)
I suddenly sympathized with the girl in front of me, she is really beautiful, her skin is like a shelled egg, her eyelashes are long, her eye sockets are slightly sunken, she is always bright and charming when she smiles, but now, I She wanted to be in the center of the storm, but she also endured a hundred times more pressure than ordinary people.

I had to interject, "Miss Qin, I think you must have misunderstood something. But I already know the so-called hidden things from me."

I looked at her stunned expression, "Besides, I also know that he didn't regard me as his girlfriend, he always regarded me as his younger sister."

I supported the table and stood up, lowered my head calmly, and said to Shen Qinjun on the other end of the phone: "I'll go first, please solve your problems yourself."

When I walked past her, I deliberately watched her expression carefully.

stunned?frustrated?
But unexpectedly, she didn't show any expression, she just lowered her head, maybe to avoid my gaze.

I went out quickly and hailed a taxi on the side of the road.The spring sun was warm and clear, and it seemed to have a faint fragrance when it fell on the body. The car finally stopped in front of a courtyard with a closed gate.I got the address right, and when I looked up, I saw magnolia flowers overflowing from the wall like rich whipped cream on a cake.

A psychiatrist's studio is a real pleasure.

I rang the doorbell, and the female voice on the intercom was very pleasant: "Here we are."

Soon, a young woman opened the door.I asked politely: "Hello, I have an appointment with Professor Xia for psychological counseling."

The young woman smiled slightly, and raised the corners of her lips, "Are you Mai Zhendong's friend? I'm Xia Huixi, hello Miss Bai."

Uh, I have to look at her again, this is a very gentle and intellectual young woman, light yellow close-fitting soft thin knitted sweater, light gray fine grid knee-length skirt, and a pair of black commuter shoes that can’t go wrong. I thought she was a doctor's assistant or secretary—well, I really didn't expect the "authoritative professor of psychology" described by Mai Zhendong to me to be so young.

Xia Huixi didn't show displeasure because of my misunderstanding. On the contrary, she briefly introduced herself when she took me into the room.She is indeed a professor of psychology at Nantah University, but when it comes to this, her expression and tone are very ordinary, and finally smiled at me and said: "Introduce yourself, so that you can trust me. The relationship between the counselor and the counselee Building trust is an important guarantee for active treatment."

I don't know why, only this one-sided relationship, less than 10 minutes of conversation, I can trust this person wholeheartedly, I nodded quickly, "Then do I need to introduce myself?"

She smiled very nicely, "Mai Zhendong told me about it, Bai Xi, you suffered from hysteria when you were young."

When I heard about my condition, I was a little nervous, but she poured me a glass of water and sat down opposite me, with a gentle force in her tone.

"I've also heard about your parents. It's really sad. Even as an adult, it's not easy to recover from such stimulation. Besides, you were only four years old at that time. At that time, your symptoms were that as long as you get close to It turns out that familiar people, things, and objects will tremble, turn pale, and even have incontinence. In fact, your mental system automatically isolates you from the familiar world to fight against the insurmountable for you at that time. Difficult and extreme environments.”

"Then am I recovering now?" I listened very carefully, "Now I know what happened at that time, but I don't get sick again, does that mean I can overcome it?"

She pondered for a while, "Bai Xi, your situation is very special, and you can't simply judge it by being completely cured. Because the information you know now was told to you by others. You didn't recall it yourself, right? That is to say, We don't yet know if you can get over it when that experience comes back."

She looked into my eyes gently, "Think about it carefully, and then tell me, are you willing to let those experiences come back?"

Without hesitation, I said, "Of course."

"Even at the risk of relapse?"

"Of course, I'd love to...remember my parents and all the little things," I whispered. "And, I think I'm strong enough now that I won't be the same as I was when I was a kid."

They chatted slowly for over an hour, until a girl who looked like a college student knocked on the door, "Mr. Xia, it's almost time."

I quickly stood up, very embarrassed, "I made an appointment for an hour, and I forgot while chatting."

But she smiled, "I have to go to school in the evening, otherwise we can have a meal together. The ideal process of psychological counseling is soothing and gentle, and this is a good state." She got up and took me downstairs, the first floor A young man was sitting and reading a magazine in the lobby. Xu Shi heard the movement and raised his eyebrows to look over.

"My husband, Su Ruhao." Xia Huixi introduced us, "This is Bai Xi."

I have seen many good-looking men, like Shen Qinjun, for example, who have good-looking facial features and facial features, but they are born with a bit of pride and a little hard to get close to.There is also a tough guy like Mai Zhendong, who looks tough, but once he becomes gentle with women, the contrast is huge and the lethality is huge.As for this Mr. Su, he was of a completely different type. He just stood there, tall and slender, with a natural air of a scholar, elegant and handsome, standing with Xia Huixi, really eye-catching.

Maybe they are colleagues in the university, I speculate in my heart.Walking out of the yard, I called Xu Zhuo.

There were too many facts that happened to me during this period, and it was difficult to explain clearly to Xu Zhuo on the phone for a while, so I simply reported the names of my parents to her, "Help me check, do they have any relatives? "

"Bai Xi, you haven't been home lately, and you asked me to check some weird people. What happened?"

"It's really fine, I've been working overtime at the company these days." I made up a random reason, "Please."

To be honest, I did have the idea of ​​just in case.In case, I mean in case, I still have relatives?
Walking on the side of the road thinking wildly, there is a sour and cool fresh smell in the air in the spring night.I picked up the phone and noticed that Shen Qinjun's voice was tense, "Where are you?"

I reported the location, and he quickly said, "I'm very close to you, and I'll pick you up right away."

Sure enough, within 5 minutes, I saw a car stop on the opposite side.

Opening the car door and sitting in, Shen Qinjun turned his head slightly and frowned, as if he was still a little confused, "What were you doing squatting there just now?"

"It's nothing, I'm so hungry that my stomach hurts." I joked.

He glanced at me, took a piece of bread from the dark compartment of the car and threw it to me, "Eat some first."

"Meat floss bread? I like it." I tore open the package, took a bite, and said vaguely, "Why do you have everything in your car?"

"Sometimes I'm in a hurry, so I rush to solve it in the car." He said indifferently, "What are you doing in the afternoon? I heard from Mai Zhendong that he has quit his job for you."

"Uh, I met Qin Mou." I said honestly, "Master introduced a famous psychological counselor, and I chatted with her."

He glanced at me sideways, observing me carefully with his thick black eyes.

"I'm fine, and I'm not sick." I was afraid that he would be worried, so I quickly waved my hands, "But that consultant is really nice, after chatting with her, I feel that I have opened up the two veins of Ren and Du."

He finally laughed, "Such an exaggeration? When will you introduce me to have a look?"

He said it lightly, but I was a little worried that he was really under too much pressure, so I thought about it for a long time and said, "Well, your ability to resist stress is different from mine."

He chuckled, and when he laughed, there were still some fine lines at the corners of his eyes, but it added a different kind of charm.I turned my eyes away and heard his cell phone beep, it was a text message.He always concentrates on driving. At this moment, he raised his jaw slightly and said, "Help me see what it is."

I clicked on it, and it was a picture sent by Qin Mou's manager. After the buffer was over, the corners of my mouth twitched slightly. I really didn't know what to say.

He probably glanced at my strange expression, and asked casually, "What is it?"

It was a photo of me and Qin Mou at McDonald's in the afternoon, the angle was really good, one of my hands was raised up, it looked like I had slapped her.

He still glanced at it casually, not surprised, just said: "Yo? Are you still doing it?"

"I didn't hit her!" I didn't give up and opened the big picture to look at it. In the photo, I had a hideous face, which was so clear—almost instantly, I understood what the "depth of water" Mai Zhendong told me was. what do you mean.

He slowly stepped on the brakes, parked the car on the side of the road, looked at my flushed face, raised the corners of his lips, and whispered, "It's nothing."

My lips trembled with anger, "If I really did it, I would admit it, but every time—"

His sudden movement interrupted my words, and I watched him lean over quickly, trying to lift my chin. I admit that at that moment, all thinking in my brain stopped, and his eyes were as bright as stars, yes want to kiss me !I can even feel his slightly burning breath touching my lips.

Before I could react, he stopped and looked at me jokingly, "I really did it...is that so?"

I saw my dumbfounded expression in his eyes, and suddenly realized that he was playing with me.

Somewhat annoyed, I pushed him away, I gave a sound of pooh, he followed my strength, slowly leaned back on the seat, but smiled silently until he couldn't help himself, his shoulders trembled slightly.

"Have you laughed enough?" I was really anxious, and I pushed the door sideways to get out of the car.

He quickly grabbed my hand, and finally stopped laughing, "Okay, I won't laugh anymore, I have to settle this matter."

I held back my anger, "How to solve it?"

He called back and motioned for me not to speak.

The phone was connected, and when he spoke, he had already become another person—it was no longer the young man who had succeeded in a prank just now. He said in a short but indifferent tone, "I saw the photo."

I held my breath, and could vaguely hear Li Xin's voice on the other end of the phone a little excited, as if arguing with him about something.

Shen Qinjun interrupted her before she even finished listening, "We have talked about this matter many times. I will not withdraw the funding for the film, and other plans will remain the same. Just treat it as compensation for my cancellation of the engagement. You have already sent I will not ask you to take back the draft, Roewe's public relations will handle it, and I will let them take care of it so as not to hurt Qin Mou. This matter ends here, and my decision will not change."

"Where's Bai Xi? Are you really not afraid that I'll post the photos?" Li Xin raised her voice, and I heard it clearly, "Shen Qinjun, do you really think you can cover the sky with one hand and block all the media?"

"I really can't cover the sky with one hand. I won't tell the media about many things, because I'm thinking of my past friendship. You'd better delete the photos, so as not to touch my bottom line." When he spoke, his expression was calm and firm, his lips were lightly pursed In a straight line, she was really impatient, "Did she take a break from school for half a year in her sophomore year?"

The other end of the phone was quiet for a moment, then Shen Qinjun hung up the phone, smiled at me very easily, "It's solved."

What kind of handle did she hold on to, and this matter was settled like this? !

I was dumbfounded, "Are you sure there is no future trouble?"

"She doesn't dare." He said flatly, and then glanced at me, "But don't ask, I won't tell you what it is—the first rule of a gentleman is not to speak ill of his ex-girlfriend."

I turned my head in disdain, "I don't want to know."

"We cooked at home, and grandpa is waiting for us." The car drove to the east of the city, and he said casually, "The old man said he hasn't seen you for a long time."

"Well, old man, what did grandpa say?" I was a little nervous for no reason.

"What do you say?"

"It's because I am Su Yan." I don't think I can explain the sudden panic.

"Take it easy." He gave me a deep look. "Grandpa wants to take care of you. After all, next week is your first board meeting."

"What board of directors?" I was stunned, "Can't I entrust you with carte blanche?"

"No." He refused straight away, "Now, I have no reason to help you with anything."

"But I don't understand." My scalp tingles when I think about going to the company to work honestly in the future.

"You're so smart, why don't you understand?" He saw through my thoughts at a glance, "Bai Xi, the company's situation is very complicated now, and the equity you hold is not small. I hope that every decision you make will It’s all through my own consideration, not at the hands of others.”

I picked my fingers one by one, thinking that he would continue talking, maybe he would mention his current situation in Rongwei. If he needs help, I am of course obliged.But he just stopped talking after he taught me that I should think independently.

"What decision should I make?" I had to ask, and after hesitating, I finally didn't say the phrase "Can I help you?"

He didn't elaborate: "I will give you Roewe's current financial situation in advance, and you will learn to judge and make decisions about the company's future decisions."

"Are you going to lay off staff?"

"There is such a proposal, but the board of directors has not approved it." He still said lightly.

I also fell silent, he was still the same Shen Qinjun, too proud to allow himself to speak out of his predicament, even if the people next to him sincerely wanted to help him.

Unexpectedly, this night, the Shen family had many guests, and there were two or three cars parked at the door.I heard Shen Qinjuan let out a soft "Hey" and said to me before turning off the engine and getting out of the car: "It happens that there are two directors here, let me introduce you to each other."

Shen Qinjun led me directly to the old man's study room. The three of them were sitting on the sofa, talking about something, the atmosphere was a little serious, and only relaxed a little when we pushed the door open.I recognize one of them as Mai Zhendong's grandfather, and the other one is younger and familiar, maybe I met him at the annual meeting.

"Huh? You are back." Grandpa raised his eyes and waved to us.

When Shen Qinjun introduced me to them, he used the name "Su Yan".Old Mr. Mai probably knew about it a long time ago, so it wasn’t surprising that when the younger Uncle Xu’s eyes fell on me, he was suddenly enlightened and meaningful.

"Miss Su really looks a lot like Chief Engineer Su." Uncle Xu sighed.

"Uncle Xu, just call me Su Yan." I said in a slightly reserved tone, "I will ask for your advice in the future."

"Ayan, I asked my aunt to sort out some photos of your parents and put them in the living room." Shen Qinjun nodded slightly at me. I thought he was going to stay and talk to them about some business, so I stood up tactfully. Get up, "Then I'll go and have a look first, you guys talk slowly."

When they walked to the door, they could vaguely hear them discussing in a low voice: "It's back...it's not easy..."

The name Su Yan is indeed much more important and more eye-catching than Bai Xi.I gently closed the door, and the aunt in the living room had already prepared sweet soup, and handed me two thick photo albums.

I held it in my palm and opened it carefully.

Why is Man Yuezhao's eyes so small, she doesn't look like me at all... I don't know who put cream all over my face during my birthday. I cried loudly at the camera, but my mother who hugged me behind me smiled beautifully...

I thought about it carefully page by page until the door of the study was opened and several people came out.

Uncle Xu's expression turned a bit cold, he nodded to me, and left quickly.Because it was Shen Qinjun who sent them out, Mr. Mai stopped in his tracks and said softly to him: "He is impatient, Ah Jun, don't worry about it."

Shen Qinjun was not displeased, but smiled and nodded, "Under the circumstances, I can understand his decision."

Mr. Mai gave him another fixed look, then reached out and patted his shoulder heavily, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

My heart sank, and I thought that the troubles Roewe encountered this time were really not trivial, otherwise I wouldn't bother Mr. Shen, who has already delegated power, to interview the heavyweights in the group one by one. Besides, judging from the results, it is really not optimistic. .
