Xiao Qian added sleeping pills to her teacherâs porridge as prescribed by the doctor.
Uncle Liu suggested these tactics for Xiao Qian, who had a Death-Free Gold Medal, so the teacher wouldnât find her even after waking up and getting angry.
If they didnât do this, the teacher would have to force herself to see patients even if she had to crawl, her sense of responsibility too strong.
Xiao Qian watched as Professor Liu fell asleep and rummaged through her coat.
The teacher had a small notebook she always carried with her, which listed the names and contact information of her patients. Xiao Qian, who was well-versed with her teacherâs habits from her past life, found it easily.
âToday at 11:00 in the office, patientâs name: Wang Yafeiâ¦â
Xiao Qian quickly scanned the information and left a note for her teacher to go settle the score with Master when she woke up, also informing her that she would temporarily take care the patient.
Since she already drugged her teacher, she wouldnât easily let her off the hook once she woke up. The more crimes committed, the lighter the burden~
After handling the situation, Xiao Qian informed the doctor and left.
The sleeping pills would be enough for the teacher to sleep for a few hours. When she woke up, Xiao Qian would have already finished seeing the patient, and any anger from the teacher would be useless. Thus, Xiao Qian could keep her teacher hospitalized for observation for another day.
Actually, there was no need for her to be hospitalized, but everyone knew this old lady was too hardworking. If they let her go home, she definitely wouldnât rest and would find ways to distract herself with work. To recover from this illness, itâd be better for her to stay in the hospital for a couple of days.
With the office key in hand, Xiao Qian unceremoniously entered Professor Liuâs office and waited for the patient they had agreed upon to arrive.
It was a tall, thin man who seemed young, around 20 years old. With his head shaved and a straight posture, Xiao Qian could tell at a glance that he was no ordinary person.
âExcuse me, are you Professor Liu?â Wang Yafei was surprised to find that the person sitting behind the chair was such a young woman.
âYou can call me Dr. Chen. Iâm Professor Liuâs student. Sheâs been hospitalized, so Iâll complete this consultation for you.â
âOh⦠nevermind then.â
Wang Yafei stood up and motioned to leave. He was already reluctant to seek counseling for his psychology, and only decided to come at the suggestion of his friend, Chu Xuan, because he didnât want to miss his assessment tomorrow which was very important for him. He couldnât believe his consultation would be with such a young girl; he didnât want to reveal his privacy to her.
âWang Yafei, male, 20 years old, seeking consultation about stress disorder. Youâve been struggling with this issue for a long time, but didnât give it much thought until recently when youâre faced with a significant plan. This plan revolves around a special position youâre competing for.â
Wang Yafei stopped in his tracks, turned back with a surprised face, which told Xiao Qian that her guess was correct.
âHow do you know so much?â
All he told Professor Liu was his age, name and the issue he wanted to consult about. How could this girl know so much?
Xiao Qian pushed up her glasses, thinking that if she couldnât even handle this, how could she let others call her Boss Qian?
âSit down, letâs talk.â
Good doctors are especially skilled at comforting patients, and Xiao Qian managed to subdue Wang Yafei with just a few words.
âDr. Chen, is my condition serious? I have a crucial assessment tomorrow.â
âThe assessment⦠is it for Yu Clanâs million-dollar annual salary HR position? Is this Xiao Qiangâs person?â
âHow do you know this?!â
It was just an educated guess.
Initially, Xiao Qian thought Wang Yafeiâs case would be an ordinary one. However, after learning that he would be competing for a position in Yu Minglangâs company, she immediately shifted her focus and moved the conversation towards the formal treatment.
Where was Yu Minglangâs company? What kind of place was it?
A super publicly-listed company that could offer million-dollar annual salaries â this was the impression outsiders had of the company. But for Xiao Qian, there was only one impression that was important.
It was where her man worked, and she absolutely couldnât let anyone problematic go there and cause trouble for Xiao Qiang.
Only those with outstanding resumes and qualifications would have the opportunity to be a part of Xiao Qiangâs unit during the reality show auditions for million-dollar HR positions. In Xiao Qianâs view, the threshold for mental quality should be raised. People with psychological problems wouldnât be able to do their jobs well. A slight deviation could lead to huge consequences.
Wang Yafei recounted his problems while Xiao Qian quickly documented the situation on paper. By the time Wang Yafei finished speaking, Xiao Qian had a good understanding of his situation.
âSo, youâre saying that when dealing with work on a computer, you occasionally experience discomfort such as palpitations, dizziness, and fright that doesnât last long. Youâve had a medical check-up and there are no problems, is that correct?â
Xiao Qian only saw a line written on her teacherâs book, saying that it might be stress disorder, but she would need a face-to-face conversation for a precise diagnosis.
This response was indeed a potential manifestation of stress disorder.
âYes, all my physical indicators are normal.â
Xiao Qian pondered for a moment, and while she could be certain his reactions were due to mental issues, she couldnât yet determine if it was stress disorder. Thatâs because stress disorder results from a person having suffered a major trauma, leaving psychological scars that impact their life afterward.
This reaction usually takes some time to manifest, ranging from a few days to months or even years.
When a normal person suddenly encounters a shock, such as violence, disaster, accidents, or witnessing an abnormal death, they may develop such reactions.
The symptoms may vary: some people experience insomnia, irritability, difficulty concentrating, heightened alertness, fright, restlessness, rapid heartbeat, and muscle soreness. This is why psychological counselors are usually required to help disaster victims recover after natural disasters like earthquakes.
âHave you experienced anything unusual lately? When did you first notice this problem?â Xiao Qian asked.
âNothing special. I started working in my old unit after graduating from university, and itâs been almost 2 years. I didnât notice anything unusual until three months ago⦠I would feel uncomfortable working on my computer and would get dizzy when looking at complex spreadsheets.â
âYou discovered this issue nearly 2 years after starting work?â
As an HR worker, he would need to deal with various office documents. It didnât make sense that he would only discover the problem now.
âIn my first year, I worked in the Logistics department of the unit. Afterward, I was transferred to the Human Resources department and promoted due to my outstanding performance.â
ââ¦Logistics?â In just 2 years, he managed quite the promotion, especially considering that his former unit was not an ordinary one â it was on par with, if not bigger than, Xiao Qiangâs current company.
âMay I ask what merits you achieved?â A promotion of this magnitude would be for no small reason.
âIâd rather not say.â
Xiao Qian realized the gaze that Wang Yafei cast towards her and apologized.
âAlright, letâs get back on track. Tell me in detail about the first time you experienced this abnormal reaction. Then, when youâre done, Iâll try to hypnotize you to find the root of the problemâ¦â
