Chapter XXXI

Bang, bang, bang!

Three loud noises appeared in Lu Ran's ears.

The shock made his head start to swell again.

Lu Ran remembered this feeling, it must be that he was too involved in the painting, and the time was up.

Lu Ran took off his sunglasses.

"Mr. Wang, we're done. Lu Ran shouted towards the door.

"Xiaoya, I'm very happy to see the painting with you today. Lu Ran took a deep breath and returned to a relaxed smile.

"Really?"

Zhou Xiaoya said uncertainly, she wanted to ask Lu Ran, but it seemed to be talking to herself.

She didn't know why Lu Ran was happy, no one was happy to see her paintings.

Is he telling the truth? Does he understand the story? Why is he happy?

He lied to me.

For a while, countless contradictory thoughts flashed through Zhou Xiaoya's heart, but she didn't ask any of them, she still sat quietly and nodded obediently.

"Alright, let's meet again next time. ”

"Hmm. Zhou Xiaoya didn't seem to resist, her attitude has changed a lot compared to the first meeting.

Her attitude towards Lu Ran was like a piece of ice that melted unconsciously, and she gradually relaxed her guard.

Lu Ran was naturally very clear about this change in his heart.

The rhythm is under his control.

Although she didn't know where Zhou Xiaoya would guide him and what kind of story she would take him to read, at least Zhou Xiaoya had now agreed that Lu Ran would stand by her side and go down together.

"It seems that I have established a basic counseling relationship with her (counselor-client relationship) and she has finally gained some trust in me. ”

On the way back, Lu Ran summed up the current situation of the case in his heart.

He wants to return to the blue ocean as soon as possible and share his progress with Zhang Xiaoming, he is very excited, and at the same time very much looking forward to the next consultation, he wants to know more about this special girl.

After sitting on the subway for a long time, Lu Ran returned to the blue ocean.

"Teacher Zhang. Lu Ran happily beckoned to Zhang Xiaoming. "I've made progress today. ”

"Is there just progress?" Zhang Xiaoming didn't look easy.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ran noticed that the atmosphere was a little solemn.

"Right now, it's not in your favor. I heard that Lin Yun's consultation was very smooth, and he only needed to do another consultation to achieve obvious results, and the consultation could be ended. Zhang Xiaoming said sternly.

"So sure?" Lu Ran was a little surprised.

"Hmm", Zhang Xiaoming nodded, "What about you?"

"I, next time, I'm afraid not. Lu Ran said truthfully.

"Is your consultation now effective? If so, it is okay to include it in the case report. Zhang Xiaoming seemed to want to find a compromise to help Lu Ran.

"The results are there. Lu Ran hesitated a little, and then said, "It's just that I'm not satisfied with this. Moreover, her situation is still inconclusive, and I will not announce the end of the consultation, next time, no. ”

"You don't seem nervous. In some people's eyes, you are doomed this time. Zhang Xiaoming was a little surprised by Lu Ran's reaction.

"No, I'm nervous too. But consultation should not be hasty. In this case, I will be responsible for it to the end, and as for winning or losing, winning or losing is not the most important thing in front of each case. Lu Ran's eyes were very determined.

"Okay, I'll support you!" Zhang Xiaoming's tone was affirmative, revealing his appreciation for Lu Ran's professional attitude.

Lu Ran relaxed, he put his worries behind, and began to talk to Zhang Xiaoming about Zhou Xiaoya, a special girl.

As soon as he talked about the case, Lu Ran entered a state of concentration and excitement, no matter what competition, what elimination, all of them no longer paid attention to, nothing was more important than this girl named Zhou Xiaoya, this is how seriously Lu Ran treats every counselor.

"Hmm. You did very well. You've got her basic trust. You did the right thing, you can't be in a hurry, this case must be much more difficult than the child Lin Yun encountered. ”

After listening to Lu Ran's introduction, Zhang Xiaoming had a general understanding in his heart.

He judged that Lu Ran's case should be much more difficult than Lin Yun's, and he couldn't help but sigh.

I just wanted to find a child who was tired of school, but as a result, how did I choose such a complex and peculiar girl.

Lu Ran didn't mind the result of this choice, but just thought about how to help this girl named Zhou Xiaoya.

"Well, I have a gut feeling that her silence is hiding some key secrets. I won't act rashly until these secrets are revealed. Lu Ran finally concluded.

"Lu Ran, you are very steady and not flustered. I guess what I can do for you is to bypass her psychological defenses and find out the truth. After listening to Lu Ran's previous description, Zhang Xiaoming also agreed with Lu Ran's judgment.

"Bypassing the defenses? Well, that's good. She does have a strong defense, so she is always silent about my questions. Now, the way I get around the defense is to communicate with her through paintings. Lu Ran explained.

"So, what about this other method?"

"In addition to this method?" Lu Ran was a little surprised by this question, and his mind turned again, "Is there any other way to understand her without asking her directly?"

After a long time, Lu Ran had an idea in his heart.

"I see. ”

……

The next day, Lu Ran got up early in the morning.

Today is his day off and there is no counseling to do.

However, he still took the subway for almost two hours to Zhou Xiaoya's school.

He didn't come to find Zhou Xiaoya.

He found Zhou Xiaoya's teacher, the teacher Wang who he wanted to stay away from before.

"Hello Mr. Wang, I want to know something about Xiaoya. ”

Teacher Wang is a middle-aged woman, commonly known as an aunt, this aunt treats Lu Ran very well, but when it comes to Zhou Xiaoya, she seems to have little patience.

"Teacher Lu, you ran so far today, just to ask her about it? She is very strange, you, a psychiatrist, are really patient. ”

"Oh, what's her weird method?" Lu Ran didn't care too much about Teacher Wang's attitude towards Zhou Xiaoya in his tone, but grasped a key point in the other party's words.

"You don't know, you don't listen to the lecture during class, and you draw some weird things there. A younger teacher, where has she ever seen such a thing, and she was so scared. Teacher Wang explained.

"Young teacher?" Lu Ran asked.

"The English teacher, a female teacher. The surname is Lee. ”

"This Teacher Li, what's wrong with her?" Lu Ran said curiously.

"I was frightened by her strange behavior, asked to change classes, and didn't want to teach her anymore. Teacher Wang seemed to be well aware of what she said about Teacher Li's behavior.

"Oh, is this Teacher Li at school?" After listening to Teacher Wang's words, Lu Ran felt that maybe he could also find out about Teacher Li.

"She's not here today. I don't think you should ask her about Xiaoya. She'll be upset. Speaking of which, Mr. Li seems to know Xiaoya's father. Speaking of this, Mr. Wang's face was thoughtful, as if he remembered something.

"Know Xiaoya's father, what's going on?" Lu Ran hurriedly asked.

"Oh, it's just some gossip, don't ask, just because I didn't say it. Teacher Wang waved his hand, as if he was unwilling to say more about this topic, and perfunctory.

"Then, what about Xiaoya's mother?" Lu Ran didn't force it, and said another question.

"I haven't met her mother, she's in a divorced family, and her father and mother divorced very early. Teacher Wang replied.

"Do you know what her dad does?" Lu Ran tried his best to learn more information.

"Her dad used to be a driver, and he used to be at school a lot. But now I rarely come over, and I don't know what I'm doing now. It is estimated that he was a little annoyed by Lu Ran's question, and Mr. Wang sat at the desk, and began to fiddle with the text in his hand, which meant to drive people away.

"Okay, I see, thank you very much. Finally, let me ask you, do you know where that old Li's office is?" Lu Ran is not a person who does not know how to advance or retreat.

"You still want to find her? You're so persistent, right behind me at the table on the right. It's hard for this girl to communicate, Dr. Lu, just do your best, forget it if you can't figure it out. Teacher Wang obviously didn't have any hope for Lu Ran's behavior.

"Well, okay. Lu Ran accompanied the smiling face, and naturally disagreed with this teacher Wang's opinion.

In Lu Ran's opinion, Teacher Wang has given up on this student, but he, as a counselor for this child, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he should do his best.

It's worth trying a thousand methods.

Today, he got a lot of information that he couldn't get from Zhou Xiaoya's mouth, especially the teacher Li who he hadn't met.

This information will help him to restore the original appearance of the story more quickly in the following consultations.
