Chapter 3 You have your dreams, I have my responsibilities

In a restaurant near Jiangzhou University, Zhuang Xiaolou and Shen Yue sat opposite each other, each looking down at their cups, and the atmosphere was extremely dull.

After a long time, after all, Zhuang Xiaolou opened his mouth first.

"Eat something? I'll help you get some. ”

It's just a mouthful, but it's something inconsequential.

Shen Yue glanced up at him, pursed his lips and said, "You don't ask me, do you have anything to tell you?"

"If there's anything, let's talk about it after eating." Zhuang Xiaolou smiled.

He knew that if something was said, the two of them might not even be able to eat this last meal.

Shen Yue looked at him deeply and nodded.

...

During the meal, the two ate very quietly, and neither of them said a word.

It was as if this dinner was not easy to come by, and the two of them cherished it extraordinarily.

"Okay, what's the matter, now you can say." After the meal, Zhuang Xiaolou looked out the window and suddenly spoke.

"Xiaolou, let's break up!" Shen Yue lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhuang Xiaolou.

She was waiting for Zhuang Xiaolou's questioning, and she was even ready to meet Zhuang Xiaolou's anger.

However, to her surprise, everything was not as she imagined.

"Okay."

Zhuang Xiaolou replied lightly, as if the person who was broken up was not him.

Shen Yue raised his head suddenly, a look of disbelief in his eyes.

She never thought that Zhuang Xiaolou would react like this?

What is this? Agreed? Is this how a normal person should react when they break up?

Zhuang Xiaolou turned his head to look at Shen Yue, who was also looking at him.

For a long time, a bleak smile appeared on Shen Yue's face, because she couldn't see any mood fluctuations from Zhuang Xiaolou's expression.

It was still the slightly smiling eyes, so familiar, but it made her feel strange.

Yes, she should have thought that Zhuang Xiaolou was such a person.

You can never tell what is going on in his heart by his face.

As a psychiatrist, Zhuang Xiaolou has long learned how to control his facial expressions and hide his emotions.

"Okay, so be it." Shen Yue calmed down his mood that he didn't know how to describe, "I'll go first." ”

With that, Shen Yue got up and left the restaurant. She was afraid that if she stayed, she would not be able to control her emotions.

She is not Zhuang Xiaolou, she can't be as "ruthless" as Zhuang Xiaolou.

Seeing Shen Yue leave the restaurant, Zhuang Xiaolou's always plain gaze finally flickered slightly.

"You have your dreams, I have my responsibilities." Zhuang Xiaolou muttered.

...

The next day, when Zhuang Xiaolou was sitting in the clinic in a daze, he received a call from Song Ziling.

"Hey, Xiaolou? What was the situation between you and Shen Yue last night, how did I hear Chu Chu say that Shen Yue just got on the plane and went to country M? Song Ziling's voice came from the other side of the phone.

Song Chuchu is Song Ziling's younger sister and Shen Yue's classmate, so it is not surprising to know the news of Shen Yue's departure.

"I see." Zhuang Xiaolou was stunned, then ignored Song Ziling's complaints on the other side of the phone, and hung up the phone.

At this moment, Zhuang Xiaolou's mind kept flashing many pictures of the past:

"Hello senior, my name is Shen Yue, a freshman in the Department of Business Administration!"

"Hello, my name is Zhuang Xiaolou, a sophomore from the Department of Psychology."

...

"Zhuang Xiaolou, I like you, do you like me?"

"Hmm."

...

"Yueyue, I'll tell you good news, Professor Xu said that the guaranteed place in the Department of Psychology has been decided to give it to me!"

"Really? That's great, it just so happened that I applied for an exchange student to go to country M, and the study time was two years, and then we could be together again! ”

...

"Xiaolou, didn't we say that we would go to country M together? How can you go back on it? ”

"I'm sorry, Yueyue, there are some things I can't explain to you, but country M, I really can't go..."

...

The scenes at that time flashed in Zhuang Xiaolou's mind like a slide, but they eventually became fragmented.

From the moment he decided to give up the guaranteed place, Zhuang Xiaolou knew that between himself and Shen Yue, he might have to go farther and farther.

Last night, when Shen Yue proposed to break up, Zhuang Xiaolou understood everything.

That's why he tried his best to make himself appear calm, calm and even made people feel indifferent and ruthless.

Since they can't be together, then break it off simply, this is Zhuang Xiaolou's consistent criterion.

Breaking the thread will only make both sides more miserable.

Putting away his complicated thoughts, Zhuang Xiaolou walked out of the clinic, looked up at the blue sky, and showed the familiar smile on his face that Shen Yue remembered.

"Precious."

......

In the afternoon, it was rare to see a patient come to the door in Zhuang Xiaolou's clinic.

"Doctor, I've been feeling like I've been stalking me lately." The person who spoke was a man of about 30 years old with glasses, and he glanced around from time to time as he spoke.

Zhuang Xiaolou was stunned and quipped: "Then you should go to the police."

The man shook his head, "I've looked for the police, but they said they couldn't do anything about it, and the police also said that I had been under too much pressure at work recently, which led to hallucinations, so I was advised to find a psychiatrist." ”

Zhuang Xiaolou looked at him carefully, plaid shirt, with a pair of thick eyes, his hair was a little messy, and he stretched his wrists and fingers from time to time when he spoke, if nothing else, Bacheng was a programmer.

"Do you think it's your hallucination?" Zhuang Xiaolou asked with a smile.

The man thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"I don't think it's a hallucination, and although it's a lot of pressure to be a programmer, I've been trying to relax myself as much as possible lately, but I still feel like someone is following me from time to time."

Zhuang Xiaolou pondered slightly, and then asked, "Have you had any strange dreams recently?"

The man was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Zhuang Xiaolou to ask such a question.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else." Zhuang Xiaolou smiled slightly and explained, "It's just that sometimes, a person's dream can better reflect a person's state of mind, so I asked." ”

The man nodded, obviously believing Zhuang Xiaolou's explanation.

"By that said, I've had a weird dream lately." The man pursed his lips and said, "I dreamed that I found a skeleton in my house, don't you think it's strange?"

"Okay, why do you dream of bones?" The man was puzzled.

Zhuang Xiaolou was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then glanced deeply at the man in front of him.

"Doctor, what's the problem? You look at me like that? The man's eyes flickered and looked at Zhuang Xiaolou and said.

Zhuang Xiaolou didn't answer him immediately, but said it to himself.

"Actually, a lot of people are scared when they see the bones because they look scary."

"But, you know what? In psychology, bones represent the essence of things. ”

The man looked at Zhuang Xiaolou in confusion, not understanding what he wanted to express.

"Seeing bones in a dream indicates that you are very dissatisfied with the status quo, or that you are worried that your secret will be discovered by others!"

Zhuang Xiaolou looked at the man and said with a slight smile: "This gentleman, of course you can choose to keep your secret, but in that case, please forgive me for your question, there is nothing I can do!"
