Chapter 7: Unspeakable Secrets
The Fourth People's Hospital. Outside the outpatient clinic of Professor Zhang Haoxuan, a psychologist, there were only four or five patients in line to see a doctor.
Zhang Haoxuan is the youngest and most authoritative representative of the psychological experts in country A, and there is naturally an endless stream of people looking for him, but there are very few who can hang his number. Only patients who enjoy the opportunity to handle his personal VIP can make an appointment.
Several patients sitting in the hallway were accompanied by family members, but Mu Xiaolei sat in a small corner against the wall, her head bowed and ignoring everything around her, because she had developed a habit over the years.
At this moment, there was a young female patient crying in the corridor, ignoring the comfort of her family and the dissuasion of the nurse. There was also a middle-aged man with dull eyes and an abnormal expression, and he kept muttering something in his mouth.
Mu Xiaolei didn't know how long she had been waiting, but she felt that the voices around her gradually quieted down, and she heard a mechanical female voice from the waiting room, repeating her name, before she knocked on Professor Zhang's door with a solemn expression.
The assistant opened the door and quietly led her in.
An elegant young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, after seeing Mu Xiaolei, smiled gently and said, "I haven't been in touch for more than three months, Xiaolei." ”
"Yes, Professor Zhang. I didn't have anything abnormal for three months, until last night when I went out of sorts again. Professor Zhang, are all my previous efforts in vain? Mu Xiaolei was in a trance.
"No, your mental illness has actually gradually recovered, don't you see that you haven't contacted me for three months this time?" The man paused, then said.
"The cause of your onset this time is probably that the central nervous system of the brain has been re-traumatized, such as fear, anxiety, depression, etc., so that you dare not face it, and it will induce the disease. Xiaolei, as long as you recover the most painful memories buried in your heart, you may be fully recovered. ”
"Thank you, Professor Zhang, for all these years thanks to your treatment!"
"It's my duty, and besides, aren't we friends? Let's go into this room inside for treatment. When they entered, the assistant gently closed the door and walked out.
Mu Xiaolei was lying on a comfortable and soft recliner, the walls around her were light yellow, and the soft lighting made her feel more secure at the moment.
"You're in good shape today, you're relaxed. Today we will try hypnotherapy to see if it can stimulate the implicit memory of the memory area of your brain. The process may be a little painful, can you? ”
"Yes." Mu Xiaolei looked determined.
"Okay, you close your eyes. Imagine yourself on a white cloud, warm sunshine, warm spring breeze. ”
Her expression entered a relaxed phase.
"Okay, very good, now slowly open your eyes and look here."
Professor Zhang took out a crystal ball with a pendant from his pocket, placed it in front of Mu Xiaolei's eyes, and slowly began to shake. 1、2、3…… 91, 92, 93 her eyes slowly closed and went into a hypnotic state.
"Mu Xiaolei, everything is happy and beautiful now, and you are in it. Tell me everything you see. ”
"Playground, a playground for a lot of people. A man pulls a little girl and they play happily together. They're playing on the merry-go-round, and they're having a good time. Mu Xiaolei's face was full of happy smiles.
"Coming down from the merry-go-round, the little girl was going to eat ice cream, and the man put her on a bench. However, he did not return for a long time. The little girl walked in the direction the man had left. ”
At this time, she stopped talking, and her mood changed subtly. "The man was answering the phone, as if talking about this little girl."
"Mu Xiaolei, take a deep breath and continue to tell me what you see." The man's voice was low and soothing, slightly gentle.
He ...... Don't want this girl anymore. Mu Xiaolei said this sentence crying.
"I'm by your side, don't be afraid, continue to tell what you see!" He put a warm big hand on Mu Xiaolei's cold little hand and said firmly.
"Well, well, the little girl ran away crying. Cars, a lot of cars, one of them parked in front of her. She was pulled into a van by a pair of large hands. Her body curled up in a panicked expression.
Zhang Haoxuan held her hand a little tighter, and quickly said, "Mu Xiaolei, you have gone to another place now." ”
"In a dark room, with no lights on, the little girl crouched in the corner in fear, crying so desolately. It's thundering! No! No! I'm so scared, I'm really scared! Mu Xiaolei began to cry, crying loudly, crying uncontrollably.
The man's other hand was clenched tightly into a fist, and his expression was pained......
"It's dawn, and those dangers are gone. Don't be afraid! Her demeanor apparently calmed down as a result of these words.
"You're so brave! Mu Xiaolei, what else did you see? ”
A middle-aged woman with a hideous face, she was scolding the little girl and telling her to shut up. She picked up the whip and whipped it hard, no, it hurt......"
Mu Xiaolei could no longer control it, she opened her eyes sweating profusely, and the despair, fear, and pain in her eyes came up, turning into a cloud of water vapor, and tears flowed down.
Zhang Haoxuan gently took her in his arms and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, Xiaolei, you are already very good." There is a big improvement in today's treatment! ”
The man bit his lower lip in agony, numb to the point of being unconscious. He didn't let go until a bloody liquid flowed into his mouth. No one knew that every time this girl was psychotreated, his pain would be so deep!
It's been six years since they've known each other, and he doesn't know when the girl in front of him walked into his heart.
In the past few years, he has been studying psychology deeply, and his medical skills are highly accomplished in psychology. He had a better future of going abroad, but he refused to go abroad because of the girl's illness. He was going to wait, and when she was fully recovered, he would confess to her and leave the place with her.
The sky outside had darkened. Mu Xiaolei's mood fully recovered.
She said to Zhang Haoxuan embarrassedly: "Professor Zhang, thank you for letting you stay with me for so long today."
"Don't be so polite to me, if you thank me, go out to dinner with me, I'm a little hungry." The man smiled elegantly.
"I should invite you, Professor Zhang, for so many years, if it weren't for your medical skills, I'm afraid I would have been in a psychiatric hospital by now, hehe." Her smile was tinged with bitterness, a hint of helplessness.
"Xiaolei, don't think too much. I'll treat you to dinner! ”
The summer nights in the north have long since receded from the heat of the day, and they are extremely cool. At night, the city is shrouded in a white moonlight, and the scenery is pleasant.
Zhang Haoxuan drove Mu Xiaolei into a Western restaurant and booked a small box.
"Xiaolei, the steak in this restaurant is particularly delicious, can I order one for you?"
Mu Xiaolei nodded carelessly. I don't know why, she has always been cheerful and smiling, but every time she faces Professor Zhang, she is always so cramped and uneasy.
After six years of acquaintance, she always felt that Professor Zhang was like her homeroom teacher in elementary school, a serious person, even if she wanted to tell a lie, he could see through it.
The steak came up quickly. Mu Xiaolei's head is full of black lines, God knows why foreigners love to eat this ghost thing.
She compared the steak on the plate with the knife in her hand, and she deeply suspected that it was not a steak, it was beef tendon, and she couldn't cut it at all, or that her knife was a blunt knife, even if it was a saw, she couldn't cut it.
And the man sitting across from her smiled gracefully, "The steak here is only medium-rare......"
The man was about to put the cut beef on his plate in front of the girl, but he saw a piece of beef hit Mu Xiaolei's chest and then fell onto her leg.
Mu Xiaolei instantly blushed in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Professor Zhang...... I'd better go to the bathroom. ”
Zhang Haoxuan asked him if he wanted to wear his suit jacket, and Mu Xiaolei embarrassedly refused.
She covered the stains on her chest and ran to the bathroom in a panic following the hotel sign. In the hallway, she met the familiar man. Uh, should it be so coincidental? "Little traitor? How did you get here? ”
"Ahem, I'm here to accompany the client to dinner." Han Wei saw the stains on the little woman's body at a glance and pointed, "Why are you so careless?" ”
"Don't mention it, I've been used to it for a long time, and bad luck happens every day."
"Who are you here with, Big Dumb Bird?"
"My ...... Friend. Mu Xiaolei didn't tell the truth, she really didn't want Han Wei to know.
For so many years, her mental illness is an unspeakable secret, and no one knows about it except her family and Professor Zhang. Who wants to be friends with someone with a hidden mental illness? She couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm not going to talk to you, I'm going to the bathroom, it's too embarrassing." She panicked and walked into the bathroom.
Han Wei took out his mobile phone and dialed out, "Wang Bo, send the trumpet women's clothes to the famous within fifteen minutes." ”
"Han Shao, is it for Miss Mu to wear?"
"Hmm."
In the women's bathroom, Mu Xiaolei rubbed the oil stains on her clothes with hand sanitizer, and finally the oil stains faded, but the wet part of her top was just right to see the color of her underwear, and in an instant she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
When she was struggling with how to get out of the bathroom door, a male voice sounded outside, and it seemed to be Wang Bo's.
"Miss Mu, come out for a moment."
When she went out, she saw Han Wei, who was standing straight outside the corridor of the hotel. Looking at the little woman's wet clothes, her thick sword eyebrows furrowed.
"Take this outfit and change it."
Mu Xiaolei's eyes immediately lit up and she smiled happily, "Hehe, great, little traitor, you are simply my savior." ”
When she came out of the bathroom, she couldn't see any trace of Han Wei, looking at the clothes on her body, her heart actually welled up with a little sweetness.
"Xiaolei, why have you been out for so long?" A nice male voice sounded in the hallway.
"Professor Zhang, I met a friend, and he sent me a set of clothes."
Zhang Haoxuan read the feelings of a girl from her demeanor, and her heart was like a knife. After all, he was a step too late. Sometimes he would rather not be a psychologist, at least not as painful as he is now.
"It's not early, I just bought you some food, let's send you back." He said in a faint voice.
"Well, okay, Professor Zhang. Thank you! Mu Xiaolei smiled gratefully at him, but this smile rippled in the man's heart for a long time.
In the underground parking lot, Han Wei sat in the back seat, coldly looking at the two people who walked into the parking lot together, the man was gentle and elegant, the girl was charming, they were talking and laughing as they walked, it was very dazzling!
He said to Wang Bo, who was sitting in the main driver's seat: "Check the man in front of me, as well as Mu Xiaolei." ”
He was going to be sure of something, something that made him question.
