Chapter 700: Chapter 674: Guilty Conscience or Hidden anings?
Liu i prepared a pot of tea as instructed by Xiaoqian. From today on, Ye Xiaoyu was no longer at ho, and there was no one to help with the housework, so Liu i and Xiaoqian had to do it together.
Xiaoqian divided the chrysanthemum tea into two cups and began to formally brainwash Liu i.
“I rember you really like chrysanthemum tea, right?”
“Drinking so in the sumr helps to reduce liver fire, and it’s also good for the eyes and lungs.”
“Very well, rember the taste of this tea today, as it will have a different aning for you in the future.” This was the beginning of brainwashing suggestion.
“I just rember you wanting to use a microwave to make tea…” This was sothing she could rember for a lifeti.
Xiaoqian cleared her throat, she also really wanted to know whose genes she inherited with her lack of kitchen skills. It seed that no one in her family was like her. Even Da Long had mastered the art of cooking instant noodles and could even add eggs and vegetables.
Xiaoqian thought she shouldn’t ntion cooking, she had to avoid talking about that.
“izi, I want to share a patient’s dical record with you. She was a postpartum depression patient, and the roots of this were her Phoenix Man husband and mother-in-law.”
“What is a Phoenix Man?”
The term was not very popular at that ti.
“A Phoenix Man refers to those n who, after enduring many hardships, remain and live in big cities despite being from poor backgrounds. In the eyes of their neighbors, they are golden phoenixes who have flown out of chicken coops. They are the hope their families have put all their efforts into cultivating. They are smart, hardworking, know what they want, but are too utilitarian. Not every man from the countryside is a Phoenix Man, and there are also Phoenix n in the city. Poverty-stricken families may make a certain type of person into a so-called Phoenix Man, but it’s a matter of probability.”
“Huh? What you’re describing sounds a lot like Ma Lu!”
Ma Lu was Liu i’s recently reconciled boyfriend.
Xiaoqian gave a sly smile, “What I just said is their good side. Now, let tell you about the negatives. The patient was a middle-class city woman with a good family background, similar to yours. Both her parents were university professors. She fell for the Phoenix Man’s determination and hard work, and married him against her family’s objection. What happened later was all foreshadowing for her postpartum depression… ”
Xiaoqian began to brainwash Liu i through storytelling, talking about stinginess, selfishness, excessive importance of money, never-ending support for the whole family, and excessive sensitivity, and high self-esteem personality…
Listening to all this, Liu i’s face turned pale.
The man in the case Xiaoqian picked made Liu i think that she was talking about Ma Lu. It was too similar!
Whether it was overly sensitive self-esteem, male chauvinism, or obsession and stinginess with money, how co they were so similar? If Liu i hadn’t previously ntioned her boyfriend to Xiaoqian, she would have believed that Xiaoqian was talking about her own boyfriend!
Xiaoqian saw Liu i’s reaction and made a victorious gesture in her heart. Her first step as a psychology PhD in confronting the psychic old woman was successful. Chen Xiaoqian could do whatever the psychic old woman could do. There were only so many personality types, and based on Liu i’s brief introduction of her boyfriend, Xiaoqian basically knew what kind of person he was. A random real-life case easily intimidated Liu i.
“What… what happened later?” Liu i was sweating profusely from Xiaoqian’s deception. Xiaoqian pushed the chrysanthemum tea towards her, “Drink so water first.”
“Later, her mother-in-law ca to the city, and due to their different lifestyles, conflicts arose between them. The man was always scheming to take over the house bought by his wife. In the end, after the child was born, the woman developed postpartum depression and ca to for treatnt. Unfortunately, I was out of town, and she saw another doctor instead. The treatnt was not effective, and she eventually committed suicide by jumping off a building. I feel regretful about this. Maybe if I was there, things would have been better.”
The later generations’ psychological practice was very chaotic. Many people saw the huge profits and wanted to get into the industry without properly training. So of them didn’t have a professional background and had taken short-term training courses at random. They thought they could be doctors after reading a few inspiring books. And even bundled psychological dical training with things like nanny training, causing many patients to be delayed. Many patients did not encounter dical practitioners like Xiaoqian, only those fake doctors who did short-term training without professional advice, causing patients to think that all psychological doctors are talking nonsense and not solving problems.
“Ah…” Liu i heard this horrifying ending, and the image that appeared in her mind was her own suicide. The sense of imrsion was too strong.
“Co, izi, have so more. Rember the taste of this chrysanthemum tea.” Xiaoqian saw that she had listened and was satisfied to top up Liu i’s tea.
Bring it on, calculating Phoenix n trying to manipulate other people’s daughters. Xiaoqian had already prepared the antidote for Liu i, and she wasn’t afraid of these people causing any trouble here!
The next day.
“Qian’er, why did you co alone today?” Shuixian and Xiaoqian sat in a private restaurant, with Xiaoqian treating her today.
“izi told to go out and take care of so business. She and Qiuqiu saw a venue and thought it was good, so I told them to go and discuss the price. Co, try the dishes here. izi recomnded this place to . This girl is very picky. If she says it’s good, it’s definitely good.”
“They went to discuss the price themselves? Don’t you need to go with them?” Shuixian had been here for almost a week, eating and playing every day. Xiaoqian would accompany her whenever she had ti, and if not, Shuixian would go swimming or work out on her own.
The original plan was to stay for two days and then go back, but for so reason, her father called and asked her to spend more ti with Xiaoqian here, so Shuixian treated it as a vacation.
And the mastermind behind Tang Daye’s call to Shuixian was Xiaoqian.
“The girl is grown up; it’s ti for her to strengthen herself.” Xiaoqian cast a aning glance at Old Mai, who was standing behind Shuixian, and a chill ran down his back.
He always felt that Chen Xiaoqian was impossibly deep, and every sentence she said seed to carry many layers of aning.
Was this sentence ant for those two friends of hers or for Lily Tang? Was his cover blown or not?
Over the past few days, Old Mai had been pondering this question often.
Xiaoqian let Yu Minglang knock out Old Mai, but didn’t give Old Mai a break. This feeling was like killing soone with a blunt knife and slowly torturing him, torturing Old Mai until he couldn’t take it anymore. Was he just feeling guilty about being a thief, or was Chen Xiaoqian’s words actually hinting at sothing?
Old Mai, who was lost in thought, looked up at Xiaoqian’s mocking gaze and could only shift his eyes away from her.
She was the first woman he had ever encountered that he couldn’t see through.
Xiaoqian enjoyed the thrill of playing cat and mouse gas. Being able to toy with a future big shot and enjoy the entire process of torturing his heart made Boss Qian very satisfied.
“Qian’er, has the suspect who threatened won been caught recently?” Shuixian asked Xiaoqian.
“The information provided by my izi is very effective. The police have already captured the suspect based on the sketch. That guy thought he hid himself well, but he couldn’t escape our eyes.”
And the last sentence was also spoken to Old Mai, who again felt his stomach tighten, and the little voice inside him roared, “I’m almost driven mad by you!” Was it his guilty conscience, or was Chen Xiaoqian’s words actually hinting at sothing?
