Dong Yi felt as if she had opened a wondrous door to Xiao Qian, and her admiration for Xiao Qian had somewhat deepened.
As for Xiao Qianâs thoughts, they were focused on the innocent child. She felt a touch of melancholy as she looked out the window.
âI overlooked this discipline before, so I will catch up on it in the future. Dong Yi, do you know what the most terrifying thing in the world is?â
âWhat?â
âNinety percent of people have to be parents, but not everyone is qualified to be someone elseâs parent. We need to take a driving test to drive and a doctorâs professional qualification to be a doctor. Even a psychologist needs a three-level qualification. Yet, there is no test to become a parent, which is the role everyone assumes. Anyone can do it, and that is terrifying.â
Dong Yi seemed confused, looking at Xiao Qian with a puzzled expression.
âWhen I think about so many unqualified people irresponsibly raising the next generation, my heart aches. The more inept the parents, the more inept the child. Most people with psychological issues have failed parents, either through overindulgence or through a lack of love and care.â
Xiao Qian grew more upset as she spoke, thinking of her own daughter.
âYou will definitely be an outstanding mother,â Dong Yi said sincerely.
Xiao Qian shook her head, her eyes welling up with tears.
âIâm not. Thatâs why I donât dare to have another child until I think I can pass the crucial âlife testâ of being a mother.â
If she had been able to spend more time with her daughter in the past, the tragedy would not have happened. Raising a child is not only about providing them with food but also requires a lot of love and care. Only by filling the childâs heart with love can psychological issues be minimized.
The mother with anxiety disorder was clearly not qualified to raise a child.
At this moment, Chen Xiaoqian seemed completely different from normal Chen Xiaoqian. It seemed as if⦠Dong Yi thought for a moment, feeling that Xiao Qian was in a different world from themselves.
Not far from the KFC, the woman who had just been bumped into by Dong Yi anxiously stood by the roadside, looking around.
A car pulled up, and Wang Xiaobo got out.
âSis, my brother-in-law asked me to come pick you up.â
âWhy didnât Yu Mingyi come himself? Iâve been standing here waiting for half a day, and I just got hit by a woman in a hurry. Iâm not happy with this visit, and Yu Mingyi didnât even bother to come personally. I was just bothered by two madwomen, and now my anxiety is even worse.â
Wang Xiaoli was very discontent. She rarely came to visit, and yet Yu Mingyi didnât even bother to come himself. Plus, she had just been harassed by two insane women, making her agitation even worse.
âWho knows? He said thereâs a talent show going on that he needs to review, and he wouldnât even let me use the unitâs car. His car doesnât have any gas left, so I had to borrow one. Donât tell him, or my brother-in-law will scold me again.â
âIs there a lot of young girls at the talent show?â Wang Xiaohong felt as if there were millions of ants crawling over her heart when she imagined that scene.
âThereâs quite a few. Sis, please keep an eye on him. He doesnât take me seriouslyâ¦â Wang Xiaobo trailed off.
The sistersâ conversation drifted away with the wind. On the other side, Xiaoqian and Dong Yi left KFC and got on a bus, which headed in the opposite direction of the car.
On their way back to school, Xiao Qian and Dong Yi sat side by side on the bus. Dong Yi looked out the window as they passed by each stop. She didnât turn to look at Xiao Qian but whispered into the air,
âWhat do you think my situation is?â
Although Chen Xiaoqian was also a student, she exuded an immeasurable presence. Since she could quickly diagnose the womanâs illness just now, Dong Yi harbored a faint hope.
âYou havenât opened your heart to tell me about your situation. From your current state, it seems you have a tendency towards reclusiveness. However, the specific degree requires further judgment.â
ââ¦Will I go crazy?â
âThere are many types of mental illnesses. Mild ones can be cured over time, while more severe cases require external help. Dong Yi, if youâre ready to open up to me, Iâm always willing to help you, but thereâs a precondition.â
Dong Yi turned her head, âWhat?â
âYou must act quickly, before I fully consider you a friend. Once we become friends, I wonât be able to help you, and youâll have to find another psychologist.â
Xiao Qian knew the cityâs most renowned psychologist should be her doctoral supervisor, Liu Linlin.
âWhy canât you help if we become friends?â
âItâs an unwritten rule in our industry. We canât have emotional relationships with patients, be it friendship, love, or kinship. When the therapeutic relationship extends beyond the consulting room, the psychologist loses neutrality. If we, as doctors, cannot maintain neutrality, then such illnesses canât be treated.â
This was why Xiao Qian had to spend so much time psychologically suggesting Jia Xiufang to divorce. If it werenât for her being a family member, three therapy sessions would have been enough. It took a long time to establish this relationship, indirectly achieving the goal.
âI feel like I can learn a lot from you.â
âSo you should seize the opportunity while my affection for you hasnât reached the level of friendship and let me treat you quickly.â
Thereâs a strange magnetic field between people, and one glance can tell who is a friend. Although Dong Yi was cold, Xiao Qian didnât dislike her. She had to suppress her liking for Dong Yi because she really wanted to take on Dong Yiâs case.
âGive me some time⦠I need to think about it.â
Dong Yi chose this major mainly to treat herself. According to Chen Xiaoqian, being a doctor with a mental disorder is even more severe, and thereâs no way to treat oneself. She wavered but couldnât completely expose her vulnerability to Chen Xiaoqian, so she hesitated.
Xiao Qian didnât pressure her, as she already had an answer in her mind.
Sooner or later, Dong Yi would ask for her help. It was just a matter of time.
She had decided to take Dong Yi as her apprentice.
? ?
Lin Xuanhua, frightened by Xiao Qian and Dong Yiâs joint effort, was only able to shake off her fear at night.
When she calculated that the talent show rehearsal should have ended, she went to find Xiao Qian in the College of Scienceâs Student Council. Although the program was dorm-based, it was still under the jurisdiction of Xiao Qianâs Student Council.
âHas Chen Xiaoqianâs group finished rehearsing?â Lin Xuanhua asked a Student Council member she recognized.
Recalling Xiao Qianâs performance, the Student Council member swallowed nervously and nodded.
Perceiving the memberâs strange reaction, Lin Xuanhua inquired further.
âHow many people went on stage?â
âThree. One person was absent⦠Boss Qian said it didnât matter whether that person came or not, the other three would perform.â
The absent person was the fourth person in Xiao Qianâs dorm, who hadnât appeared since the beginning of the semester.
âWhy do you also call her Boss Qian?â Lin Xuanhua was somewhat dissatisfied.
She thought she had already won over everyoneâs hearts..
