Xia Jianghe actually looked much more normal than he imagined, and after hearing Qin Yi's self-introduction, he smiled slightly and said strangely: "Oh, is it Yuxin's boyfriend? As he spoke, he turned to the other three people on the mahjong table and smiled, "Sorry, everyone, I'll come as soon as I go." ”

However, Qin Yi actually noticed the strangeness of Xia Jianghe, that is, this person's tone.

Although the other party showed the feelings that should be shown in terms of the content of the language, such as surprise and guilt, there was no fluctuation in the other party's feelings, and the tone did not change at all, and it was always as flat as at the beginning.

It feels as if the person is a robot, working according to the program, he knows what kind of feelings to show when and when, but he doesn't have such emotional fluctuations in his heart. It's as if ...... The man in front of him was just an empty shell, and there was no soul in it under that body.

"This is really rare, Yuxin is so big and it's the first time I've brought my boyfriend back. Xia Jianghe said with a smile, but his tone was still very flat, "So it seems that Yuxin should like you very much, right?"

Speaking of this, Xia Jianghe looked at Xia Yuxin and asked, "Are you two already engaged......?"

"No, just to meet the parents. Xia Yuxin shook her head, "The two of us have only been dating for a month. ”

"After dating for a month, you came to meet your parents?" the smile on Xia Jianghe's face disappeared, "Do you really know each other well?" ”

"No, I went on a blind date with him for more than half a year before we started dating. Xia Yuxin explained.

"Ah, that should be fine. Xia Jianghe laughed again, and then turned to Qin Yi, "Our family Yuxin is a simple child and very obedient, although our family's conditions are not very good, but she is very beautiful, right? As long as you are sincere to her, and she really likes you, it doesn't matter what the dowry is, it's better to settle it earlier." ”

Xia Yuxin frowned slightly in the back, seemingly unspeakably uncomfortable. Qin Yi could also understand her thoughts, after all, his father agreed to the marriage of the two of them so easily, and he didn't even ask Qin Yi in detail about the specific situation, such as family background, work, income, and where the two of them are currently dating, as if he was in a hurry to go back to playing mahjong.

"I'm already living with him. Xia Yuxin suddenly replied at this time.

"Oh, do you live together after dating for a month?" Xia Jianghe asked in a daze, but quickly regained that smile, "You are a sensible child, and you haven't fallen in love easily for so many years, so I believe in your choice." ”

Xia Yuxin's brows twitched, she bit her lower lip and asked, "Really, do you really believe in my choice, or do you just want ......to talk about it quickly?"

When he said this, Qin Yi suddenly pressed her lower lip and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for your uncle's trust, can you wait for me here?" I want to talk to Yuxin alone for a few words, and it will be fine right away." ”

"Okay. Xia Jianghe replied with a slight smile, his expression was calm despite facing his daughter's accusations.

"You can see it too, he is like that, he doesn't care about me at all......" Xia Yuxin covered her mouth and replied, tears couldn't stop sliding down the corners of her eyes, and Qin Yi felt distressed when she saw it. He hurriedly brushed away Xia Yuxin's tears and comforted: "It's not what you think, silly girl...... Don't cry, don't cry, as soon as your tears fell, I felt a pang in my heart. ”

Xia Yuxin sniffed, said with red eyes, "He has been like this since a long time ago, and he doesn't care about anything. It didn't matter if I behaved well or badly, he always had that look, no matter what happened. ”

Despite holding back, tears kept dripping from her eyes, so she shifted her gaze and didn't look at Qin Yi.

"It's not like that. Qin Yi hugged the back of Xia Yuxin's head and let her lean on her shoulder, "Your father's situation is more complicated, listen to me tell you in detail." It's not that he doesn't care about anything anymore as you say, on the contrary, it's because of you that he became what he is today, even though he is in pain......"

"For me?" Xia Yuxin looked at Qin Yi puzzled and asked, "Why did you become like this for me?"

Qin Yi sighed, his expression became serious: "I'll simply tell you the conclusion first, and then explain the reason." To put it simply, you see that your current father is just a second personality that he has split from, and the real personality should still be asleep in the depths of his soul, escaping from all this, escaping from the reality that his wife has left him. ”

"Split personality?" Xia Yuxin asked in surprise, "But, why is this happen......ing?" Clearly...... It was all normal at the time, and it didn't suddenly become like this. Didn't split personality come out of nowhere?"

"Violent blows are often only triggers, and the second personality does not appear suddenly, but only when the first personality needs it. Qin Yi explained, "Do you know the book "Twenty-Four Billys"?"

Xia Yuxin shook her head, and Qin Yi continued to explain: "The protagonist described in this book is a murderer, but he was eventually acquitted because he has multiple personalities and has as many as twenty-four personalities. And his personality does not arise at the same time, but over time, when his first personality arises when it is needed, such as ......"

Qin Yi thought for a while and continued: "One of his is a workaholic, the purpose is to be in charge of those monotonous and boring jobs, and he is alone in a daze when he doesn't have a job. Therefore, when a second personality is produced, it is the first personality that is forced to produce the crop because it cannot bear reality. Your father is in such a situation. ”

"Is it because his mother divorced him?" Xia Yuxin asked sadly while covering her mouth.

"It's not just that. Qin Yi shook his head, "Didn't you find that this personality of his, who retains basic logic and thinking ability for your affairs? He doesn't care about anything else, doesn't react much, doesn't care about winning or losing cards, doesn't comment much, but only has impressions and independent thoughts about your affairs?"

"That's ......" Xia Yuxin frowned, Qin Yi sighed: "I think, after your mother divorced him, he must have been very sad, and wanted to end himself or escape this reality in some way, but he was reluctant to let you go, and he couldn't rest assured about your affairs, so he forced himself to face that fact, which caused him to be very short-tempered." ”

As he spoke, Qin Yi looked at Xia Yuxin and said, "Didn't you say that after the divorce, he started drinking heavily, and his temper began to become very bad?

"Once...... He slapped me after drinking. Xia Yuxin covered her chest and said, "That time I was quite seriously injured, I was knocked out by him, and the corners of my mouth were bruised." He woke up the next day and found that he hadn't drunk since that time......" Speaking of this, Xia Yuxin suddenly said: "He has become like this since then......! Particularly cold.,The look of not caring about anything.。 Be polite to me, and make me feel particularly distant......"

"Right? That was the time when the second personality was born. Qin Yi smiled and said, "Your father wants to survive for you, so he had to rely on alcoholism to numb himself in order to bear that kind of pain, but it turned out that alcoholism hurt you and went against his original intention, and his heart was conflicted and painful, so this second personality was born." ”

Qin Yi said and sighed: "This second personality is actually very simple, it only fulfills two tasks, the first task is to 'survive', and the second task is to 'fulfill the responsibility of a father'. With this personality, he doesn't need to face this painful reality, and he can watch you grow up and marry as a father. Although the finish is somewhat mechanized......"

Speaking of this, Qin Yi held his chin and frowned and groaned: "I think it's all because he was too anxious to escape from this reality, so the second personality was born in a bit of a hurry. So, in fulfilling the responsibilities of a father, this personality only knows what to do, but does not have a mind of its own, like a robot......"

"Xiaoyi, help him. Xia Yuxin's whole person suddenly collapsed, after learning that her father became like this not because he hated her but loved her deeply, her whole person was obviously filled with guilt, and she just wanted to make up for it quickly, "You can do whatever you want me to do, please, help my dad and let him wake up." ”

"But I don't think by waking him up is helping him. Qin Yi sighed and said, "His true personality should still be asleep down there, sleeping in the dream where your mother still exists, but there is no her in this reality." If you wake him up, he'll still be in the same pain as before. ”

"You must be able to do something for him, right? You're so good at psychology! Please!" Xia Yuxin buried herself in Qin Yi's chest and sobbed, Qin Yi patted the back of her head and soothed, "Don't worry, you don't need to beg me." I'll do the same for you, but I'll have to tell you about the risks before I can make a decision. ”

"Hmm......" Xia Yuxin wiped her tears and sobbed and said, "Say it......"

"The risk, naturally, is the same as before. Qin Yi sighed and said, "Your father can't accept reality. I can't change that. It's true that your father is a little weak, but that doesn't change the fact that he loves you too. ”

"So, what will happen if you wake him up......" Xia Yuxin asked wiping her tears.

"It could be that your father repeats the mistakes of the past, falling into the agony of the past, and living on alcohol. Qin Yi replied, "What's worse is that he can't bear this kind of pain and produces a third or even more personality, or because the real personality can't fall into a dormant state and suffers from it, he finally breaks himself off." ”

"Isn't there any way to heal his psychological wounds?" Xia Yuxin asked, snorting.

"Yes, yes. Qin Yi wiped her nose for her, "The so-called bell must be tied to the bell, and to do this, I'm afraid you need your mother's help." I know your mother may not be married to your father again, but even if she helps out as a friend, she should be able to ease your father's current state. So ......"

Xia Yuxin nodded, and flipped up her phone in her bag: "I'll ask her now......"

This is already the best way, because Xia Jianghe's real personality is currently in a comatose state, immersed in the world where he has not divorced Dong Yulan, so Qin Yi forcibly made him wake up, and the impact of this reality when he suddenly woke up may even make Xia Jianghe go crazy. But if it was Dong Yulan who came to awaken his true personality, the risk would be much smaller.

Dong Yulan is not such a ruthless woman, so Xia Yuxin quickly replied.

"Mom said she's okay over there, come over now. Xia Yuxin hurriedly replied to Qin Yi.

"Have you made it clear carefully?" Qin Yi asked curiously, "You know, she is very unpopular with your father, your grandparents will scold her, right? Even her parents are blaming her for this, aren't they? This is not good for her." ”

"She said she wanted to make up for it, even if it was a little bit she was willing to ......," Xia Yuxin muttered with her head down.

Qin Yi smiled and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, it's good." Shall we go to your father? Don't act like nothing happened, look natural, you know?"

Xia Yuxin's small brain was connected, so Qin Yi took Xia Yuxin back and found Xia Jianghe.

"Uncle Xia, I want to talk about my marriage with Yuxin and you and Aunt Dong, do you think it's okay?" Qin Yi asked with a smile, "It just so happens that you and Aunt Dong haven't seen each other for a long time, right?"

And Xia Jianghe's next behavior also completely confirmed Qin Yi's thoughts, although Dong Yulan was mentioned, Xia Jianghe still didn't have any emotional fluctuations, just smiled flatly: "It's true that I haven't seen you for many years, it's a little embarrassing." But since it's for Yuxin's marriage, it's the only way to go. ”
