Chapter 2: Forgotten Memories

"Why is your face so bad?"

Bai Lu put the milk tea in front of Wang Mengmeng and asked with concern, "Didn't you sleep well again?"

Wang Mengmeng nodded, took the milk tea, and took a big sip. The steaming milk tea dispelled the sleepy bugs that had been pestering her all afternoon.

Bai Lu stretched out her hand and took off the black-framed glasses that occupied almost half of her face, revealing a pair of charming eyes.

Different from Wang Mengmeng's beautiful and sunny appearance, Bai Lu's appearance is a little naturally charming, she has long legs and a thin waist that many girls envy, and her hair flies behind her head like a curly seaweed. It's a pity that she always uses a rubber band to tie seaweed into balls, uses a pair of exaggerated black-framed glasses to block her face to only three points, and then puts on a white coat, and the image of a nerd is 100%.

Bai Lu is Wang Mengmeng's most iron-clad old iron except for Erha, the deadliest friend, and one of the most poisonous women Wang Mengmeng has ever seen.

"Is it because of the company's performance?" or because of that dream?" asked Bai Lu.

"Both. Wang Mengmeng sighed.

"Nerves," Bai Lu kicked Wang Mengmeng under the bed, "If it's for performance, you're purely superfluous." You have the backing of Erha, the 'second generation' of the gold owner, what is there to worry about? As for that dream......

Speaking of this, Bai Lu rubbed her eyebrows: "From a psychological point of view, if you keep repeating the dream that keeps appearing, it is very likely to be related to your childhood experience. If you want to get rid of it completely, I think, the best thing to do is to reawaken your childhood memories. ”

"Re-...... Wake up?" Wang Mengmeng looked at Bai Lu in confusion.

The "dream" that Bai Lu said was a dream that has been entangled with Wang Mengmeng since childhood.

She often dreamed of her young self struggling and calling for help in the river, and the feeling of the cold river water pouring into her mouth and nose and the despair of no one to rescue her were so real, so real that she almost believed that it was not a dream, but her own real experience. And every time, when she was desperate, she could hear a voice shouting to herselfβ€”"Don't be afraid!

Immediately afterward, two vague figures swam towards him. Wang Mengmeng tried many times to see their faces clearly, but failed every time. All she knew was a man and a woman, and they swam to her like saviors, reaching out to her. Wang Mengmeng also tried hard to reach out to them, she was so anxious, so afraid, for fear that if she couldn't hold their hands, she would be carried away by the river. Tears and sweat were mixed together, dripping into the river, Wang Mengmeng couldn't tell the difference at all, all she could remember was the hands, the hands that stretched out by herself.

Who is the owner of the hands?

Who are those two men and women who broke into their dreams......

Wang Mengmeng didn't know.

"Can you really reawaken your memory?" Wang Mengmeng looked at Bai Lu seriously and asked.

"Of course, look at this. Bai Lu said, taking out a leaflet from her bag. The leaflet reads "Recruiting Psychotherapy Volunteers" in eye-catching large letters, and the unit with a thin amount is "Healing Psychological Counseling Room".

"Your recruitment post for the psychological counseling room?!" Wang Mengmeng was surprised.

The "Healing Counseling Room" is one of the psychological counseling rooms under the well-known Healing International Psychological Research Center, and it is also the place where Bai Lu currently works. As a top student in the psychology department of S University, a well-known university in China, Bai Lu received an offer from this company as soon as she graduated. As a sworn friend, Wang Mengmeng was proud of Bai Lu for a while.

But what the hell is this psychotherapy device?

Probably seeing Wang Mengmeng's doubts, Bai Lu put on her glasses again and solemnly explained: "This is the research result of the core team of our research center for a full twelve years. You know, the information that humans receive through their senses is transmitted to the human brain through the nerves, but before the information reaches the brain, most of the information is already filtered. ”

"Filtered?"

"Yes. Some memories are temporarily stored in the hippocampus, while sensory data that is considered to be the most important part can be transmitted through the hippocampus to the long-term memory area. So ......"

"So, your machine is used to activate the long-term memory area of the brain, which reminds me of 'short-term memory' that I have forgotten?"

"The child can be taught!" Bai Lu happily pinched Wang Meng's cute and cute face.

"But...... Is your machine safe?" Wang Mengmeng said uneasily.

"Hey!" Bai Lu cried out dissatisfiedly, "You are doubting the world's number one psychological research center, okay! And this machine is the trump card of our research center, and there is no queue of people who come to make an appointment! However, I can make sure you go through the back door, who made you my baby." ”

As she spoke, Bai Lu took out the information sheet and handed it to Wang Mengmeng: "Come, baby, fill in this form, I'll make an appointment for you." ”

"Is it really reliable?" Bai Lu's performance of such a positive proposition made Wang Mengmeng always have an ominous premonition.

"Hey, is the opportunity for 0 yuan psychological treatment good, 0 yuan! You can't buy it, you can't afford to be fooled, and it's also cost-effective to do psychological counseling for free!" Bai Lu's eyes widened angrily.

Sounds like a good deal......

And that dream...... She really wanted to find out why it appeared, and she wanted to know the identities of the two people in the dream.

Think about it.

Wang Mengmeng picked up the pen and filled in her name on the registration form.

"Daddy!"

"Mom!"

"No!"

That seems to ...... It was a sparkling river, right in front of him.

No, it's in ...... Childhood in front of him.

His parents, desperately swimming in one direction, could not hear him, no matter how hard he called and waved.

They couldn't see him, they couldn't hear him, they just got farther and farther away.

"No!"

Lu Dan opened his eyes suddenly, and the whistle behind him rang out, and he realized that he was asleep sitting in the car. The traffic lights in front of them had already turned green, and the cars behind them honked their horns in dissatisfaction.

Lu Dan hurriedly started the car and drove forward.

I had that dream again, a dream that had haunted him in his sleep since he was a child.

Regarding the death of his parents, it is said that he was to save a little girl who had drowned,β€”β€” a little girl who was a complete stranger and had never appeared in his life and had never crossed paths with his parents. For her sake, their only son was orphaned.

It is said that Lu Dan was also present when his parents rescued the girl, but Lu Dan couldn't remember anything about that memory.

Completely forgotten, obviously such a precious memory.

What is the reason for forgetting?

The phone rang with a video request tone, and Lu Dan glanced at the phone, which showed the WeChat name of the secretary Judy. He pulled over to the side of the road and clicked on the video call.

"What?" Lu Dan asked.

"Mr. Lu, the courier company sent a bouquet of flowers, saying that it was sent by Miss Michael, you see......" Judy said, turning the camera at a bouquet on the table...... No, a bunch of flowers.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a "pile", because the bouquet of flowers is so large that it almost occupies the entire table, and there should be more than 300 flowers by sight.

Lu Dan's brows furrowed.

"Let them take it. Lu Fan said coldly.

"But......" As soon as Judy opened her mouth, Lu Dan interrupted her.

"The first thing you have to learn to be my secretary is to don't say 'but'. ”

With that, he hung up the video, completely ignoring how embarrassed Judy was holding up her phone and stunned there.

Before the iceberg-cold senior account director parachuted, Judy had already received countless comforts and blessings in the work group of the headquarters, and the advice and regret were as uncomfortable as "hospice care". At first, when she saw this handsome director for the first time, Judy still said in her heart that this was as terrible as they said, obviously an "Oba"! However, from the first second of the official work handover, Judy became more and more aware of why those people would pass on such "hospice care" to herself.

Sooner or later, she will ...... Will you freeze to death by this iceberg?

As soon as Lu Dan hung up the video, the message of the human resources director came over.

"The 28th of this month is your birthday, and the senior management of various departments of the company decided to hold a birthday party as usual, and it will be set at the Yanyu Jiangnan Hall, OK?"

In the reply column, Lu Dan had already typed a "no" word, but he didn't send it out for a long time.

He knows that the rules of human affection in the workplace are to mingle, but ...... He really didn't fit in.

Very uncomfortable.

No, it should be described as hateful, this kind of interpersonal relationship that obviously resists and greets each other with a smile......

Lu Dan threw his phone on the co-pilot's seat and closed his eyes tiredly.

He doesn't want to be close to anyone, he doesn't want to intersect with anyone, and he is tired of even saying a greeting to him, except for the necessary communication at work.

What is this sentiment called?

- Emotional expression disorder?

I remember a psychiatrist saying that he had become like this since his parents died. The doctor concluded that if you want to get out of this state, you must go to psychotherapy.

Psychology...... Is it treated......

Lu Dan's brows furrowed even deeper.

The car window was suddenly knocked, Lu Dan opened his eyes, and saw a doctor-like young woman wearing a white coat, combing her balls, and wearing a pair of black-framed glasses standing outside the car. Lu Dan rolled down the window and looked at her with displeasure, while the woman handed him a leaflet.

The words "Healing Psychological Counseling Room Recruits Psychotherapy Instrument Volunteers - Twelve Years of Research Results of the Healing International Psychological Research Center, Activating Old Memories and Healing Psychological Wounds" came into Lu Dan's eyes.

"Sir, do you want to volunteer, I can fill out the form for you right now. The woman said, took out the registration form, and showed Lu Dan a salesman's characteristic smile.
