Chapter 18: Drawing the Line
The temperature around him gradually rose, and Yan Zheng didn't close his eyes the whole time, so when Fang Miao opened his eyes after a few seconds, he immediately understood the sudden change in the emotions in her eyes.
Stunned, calm, detached...... Resist......
The hourglass of time continues to flow away......
Yan Zheng suddenly realized something at that moment, and consciously took the liberty to leave her lips, and the two opened up the distance, and as soon as he wanted to speak, she took the lead.
"Let's go over there and talk. ”
The first thing she said made him even more sure that it was Fang Miao who was standing in front of him now!
On the surging beach, the two walked one after the other, like two strangers who had nothing to do with each other.
Fang Miao put his shoes in his hand and walked barefoot on the waves, Yan Zheng followed him silently all the way, looking at the person in front of him who was no different from usual, he couldn't read a person's mind for the first time.
After walking for a while, Fang Miao stopped in front of her, turned around and saw Yan Zheng's warm face, a bitter smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.
How could someone as warm as him approach you who are mentally ill for no reason?
"I just lost my temper, sorry. When she was out of her mind, Yan Zheng had already walked over.
After hearing his apology, Fang Miao suddenly realized that he had always been so gentle, humble and polite, and it was precisely because he was like a gentleman that whenever she appeared when she was most vulnerable, she would become addicted to dependence, to the point of losing her rational consideration.
Since that's the case, it's time for her to be herself.
Fang Miao paused and asked rhetorically, "Gaffe?"
Did he lose his temper, or did she take the initiative to kiss?
It was the first time that Fang Miao showed such a calm and distant attitude, which made Yan Zheng have a kind of psychology of escaping.
"Then let me change the question, what day of the week is today?"
"Saturday. ”
It's been a week, Fang Miao closed her eyes to ease her emotions, opened her eyes after a while, and looked at him opposite with a smile: "I have a dual personality, Doctor Yan knew about it from the beginning." ”
Otherwise, how would they be willing to take the initiative to approach me? and calmly kiss, I must have been classified as a patient from the beginning, and now there will be no surprise.
Fang Miao didn't say these words, but with just one sentence and her increasingly hot eyes, Yan Zheng knew the unspecified meaning.
"I admit that I approached you at first because of my profession, if it makes you uneasy, then I apologize to you, but I am not as you think, I am sincere......" Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped, looking at Fang Miao's eyes became more and more complicated.
Fang Miao looked back at him, his lips fluttered, but he still didn't ask, and then he continued:
"It's sincere...... ...... treat you as a friend" At that moment, just looking at her, a look similar to sadness appeared in Yan Zheng's eyes.
"Friend, I'm afraid what I said in your office that day is now going back on my word. Fang Miao pulled her lips hard, making a sad appearance.
Yan Zheng's eyes moved slightly, there was no squeak, he was not a person who talked a lot, and it was because he couldn't find a word that could save the relationship here and now.
"Thank you very much for your help to me in the past, frankly speaking, since I first learned about your profession, I have had inexplicable resistance, it is really Dr. Yan who is so charming that I almost fell. ”
Fang Miao said that she was in a state of mind, and she didn't feel embarrassed, her emotions were messed up in her heart, and the chaos made her miserable, and there was only one thought in her mind, that is, to explain everything clearly.
"Now that I'm sober, I decided to take a step back and get myself back to where I was most right. ”
……
"Does it have to be like this?" Yan Zheng didn't have any expression, but there was an invisible pressure in his tone.
Fang Miao was caught off guard by the question, she was a lawyer, no matter how cramped she was, she could face it rationally, she looked back at him, restrained the cowardice in her heart, and said word by word: "Yes, including tonight's kiss, I can guess that it is Yin Lai, no matter what kind of feeling Dr. Yan felt at that moment, whether his heart was beating like a drum or his heart was like stopping water, please forget it forever after I turn around." ”
After saying this, the heart in Fang Miao's chest also lost its rhythm with the nervous breathing, but these small movements that were out of control could not be exposed, so she turned around and walked away from his sight step by step.
Yan Zheng watched the figure get farther and farther away, until it disappeared completely, and the strength of his whole body seemed to be completely drained, and what was the feeling of emptiness in his heart?
Fang Miao walked out of the open-air venue, biting her lip, tears rolling down uncontrollably, driving her shoulder blades to twitch continuously.
From beginning to end, she was unwilling to admit that she had a split personality, did not dare to reveal it to anyone easily, and preferred to fight alone rather than receive treatment, and just when she tried her best to hide this pathology, she found that someone who was close to her had seen through it from the beginning.
Her hiding, her stubbornness, her struggle, her disguise, collapsed before his eyes.
Thinking of this, the sadness came over like a tidal wave, and the only thing she could do was to be forced to bear it.
——
Turning the page, on Sunday, Fang Miao started the crazy work mode, the workload accumulated this week gathered into a big mountain, she dealt with it non-stop, as an assistant, Meng Chaoge was forcibly pulled to work overtime, looking like Fang Miao, who was on the clockwork and the two people before, in a trance.
"Miao Miao, what's wrong with you lately, your mood is also unstable, it's very weird. ”
Fang Miao was preparing the court materials for the Baiyang case, and casually prevaricated, "It's just that I'm too tired and can't control my temper." ”
Meng Chaoge didn't believe it very much, and was about to investigate deeply, but was forced back by Fang Miao's question.
"How's the client who made the appointment last week?"
She kept her head down the whole time, not noticing Meng Chaoge's suspicious look.
"I haven't been here since the reception room made trouble, but he was right not to take the case, and his character was terrible. ”
Fang Miao raised her hand and rubbed her temples, it seemed that the situation was much more serious than she imagined.
At the same time, Yan Zheng went to the Chinese medicine clinic for consultation, and the patients came in waves, and it was not until noon that he had a moment to rest.
"Do you want me to prescribe an anti-depression prescription for you, I see that your stiff face has been all morning. Jiang Xingzhou pulled the black Chinese herbs on the table.
Yan Zheng watched his movements, and his heart was unusually calm: "You can't cure me with you." ”
Jiang Xingzhou was dissatisfied: "Look at you like you're out of love, as far as I know, you're not in love, is it because your crush has failed?"
In fact, he guessed eight or nine without leaving ten, Yan Zheng rolled his eyes to look at him, and threw out three words: "I think too much." ”
Jiang Xingzhou was speechless, grabbed a prescription bill next to him, quickly wrote a few lines on it, and then threw it to Yan Zheng, hugged his arm and said in a professional and serious tone from a doctor: "Follow the prescription to grab the medicine, drink it for a week to see the aftermath." ”
Yan Zheng glanced at it and saw the first few big words on it: uneasy and depressed.
Here are a few herbs: 15g of acacia flowers, 15g of acacia skin, and 10g of Yuanzhi.
"After drinking, you will be refreshed and refreshed. Jiang Xingzhou laughed twice, there are not many opportunities to show his professional knowledge in front of Yan Zheng, "Yuanzhi, the temperament is warm and bitter, but the heart is calm, it is very suitable for you." ”
Yan Zheng refused in his heart, but the ghost made the god accept it, and said to himself very arrogantly: It is to give Jiang Xingzhou face, the prescription is non-toxic, he is not sick, just to regulate the body.
"Having said that, I don't think you are really suitable to be a psychiatrist, first, when you went to college, this subject was not prominent, how can a person who is sullen can regulate the psychology of others; second, a doctor is to play his greatest role - to cure diseases and save people, otherwise what kind of medicine would you study? ”
Jiang Xingzhou was playing with Chinese medicine, and half of his attention was peeking at someone's face.
Yan Zheng didn't say anything, looked down at the prescription, and was disturbed by his words.
"Haven't you let go of that matter yet?" Jiang Xingzhou's eyes were rare stubborn.
This time he still didn't say a word, and his dull mood became more and more heavy.
"Even if you don't want to be a surgeon again, you can come to a TCM clinic to be a sitting doctor, both of which are your strengths, and it would be a pity to waste them. Jiang Xingzhou tried every means to knock on the side, thinking that after coming for so long, he should always let go.
Yan Zheng was unmoved, raised his head and smiled, raised the prescription in his hand and said, "Go first." ”
He jumped out of his chair and pushed the door out, went to the big pharmacy next to him to grab a packet of pills, and left with his head still a little confused.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Han Junchi was discharged from the hospital, and Li Xin basically came to the hospital every day during the hospitalization, and naturally accompanied him when he was discharged.
"I said you've been running to the hospital for the past two weeks and not working, and I'm embarrassed. As soon as Han Junchi got in the car, he opened the chatterbox.
Li Xin drove the car out of the parking lot, looking calm: "I just returned to City A and didn't have any cases to take, and besides, I was tired from my business trip for half a year, so I don't want to give myself a vacation." ”
"Not excessively, of course. Han Junchi adjusted the angle of the co-pilot and chose a comfortable position to lie down: "I heard that you were called on a blind date by your family before, tell me how the battle was going?"
Li Xin smiled reluctantly, "What can I do, I can't see it right, and I will scatter it in two." ”
"Hiss~" Han Junchi gasped and teased: "We are also childhood sweethearts, you, I know very well, from childhood beauty to adulthood, and now it is definitely at the goddess level, with a good figure and a good family background, how can it be so difficult for a mature young lady to find a partner?"
He said in a tone of regret, closed his eyes and sighed, so he didn't notice Li Xin's lonely and dim gaze.
Han Junchi returned to the law firm with honor, everyone can be said to be welcome, and he did not refuse all kinds of gifts and greetings, such a big scene, Li Xin and Fang Miao are a pair of spectators.
The two of them glanced at each other and got to work.
That night, in order to celebrate his discharge from the hospital, Han Junchi dragged all his colleagues to Xinyuan Xiaozhu to celebrate after work.
He had booked a large private room with a large table and a slightly elevated stage in the dining area, and next to the stage was a singing table, which was equivalent to a small KTV.
After everyone was seated, Han Junchi ordered the food to be served.
"Barrister Han, your style is getting higher and higher, it is difficult to make an appointment for the position of Xinyuan Xiaozhu, I want to hug my thighs. Xi Yuan held up a fan girl's face, and she couldn't worship it.
Han Junchi crossed Erlang's legs and played cool: "My thighs are thick, let you hold them." ”
Everyone laughed and talked, and the meal was served, and halfway through the meal, someone suggested that someone take the lead and sing a song.
"Then Lawyer Han, he is the host. Meng Chaoge sandwiched a piece of meat and coaxed.
Han Junchi hooked the corners of his mouth, took a sip of wine, and got up numbly: "Then I'll go first." ”
Everyone applauded, Han Junchi sat on the chair next to the song ordering table, first threw a wink and then lowered his head to order a song, the accompaniment sounded, he picked up the microphone and brewed.
This is not the first time Han Junchi has sung in front of his colleagues, he loves to sing popular love songs, and this time is no exception, affectionate like a prince of love songs, and several little girls who just came to the law firm this year were fascinated.
He ordered "Love a Girl Well", the standard of singing was emotional, and after singing, he changed back to the appearance of a hanger.
"It's good to sing, who's next?" Xi Yuan applauded and asked.
At this time, Meng Chaoge raised his hand eagerly, the meat that had just been stuffed into his mouth had not yet been swallowed into his stomach, and there were a few oils stained on the side of his mouth.
"Well, it's our gossip king. Xi Yuan called the name like a host, and pointed at Meng Chaoge's mouth after speaking.
The "Gossip King" immediately understood, grabbed the napkin on the table and wiped it randomly, walked to the song ordering table to order a good song, picked up the microphone, and the prelude was about 20 seconds, Meng Chaoge was just about to open his mouth to sing the first sentence, the door of the private room was pushed open, and an uninvited guest appeared at the door.
