Chapter 1422 - 1247: Because You Love Each Other_2
If her legs weren’t weak, that’d be the strange thing.
Song Yansheng’s lips curled into a faint smile, the tenderness in his voice so strong it was about to drip.
He said, "It’s okay, your husband will carry you out!"
Shi Nuan froze for a second, just about to refuse when Song Yansheng had already bent down, supporting her legs with one arm and lifting her up by the waist.
Shi Nuan let out a light call, "Second Uncle..."
Song Yansheng lowered his head and kissed Shi Nuan’s forehead, his voice soft like he was soothing a child: "Be good, don’t be scared."
Shi Nuan’s face burned, but in the end she didn’t object.
Song Yansheng added, "If you’re shy, you can hide your face in my chest..."
"Mm."
Shi Nuan responded and actually buried her face against his chest.
In her ears, the man’s heartbeat thumped steadily, rhythmically.
Listening to that sound, she felt very at ease.
Shi Nuan closed her eyes.
And Song Yansheng ignored everyone around them, only calling lightly toward the crowd, "Chi Rui, get the car ready, I’m taking my Lady home!"
Not far away, Chi Rui, who was still in a daze, hurriedly answered and rushed toward the exit.
Just as he reached the door, he saw Yao Ziwan about to come in.
Seeing Chi Rui’s expression, Yao Ziwan felt a little curious and asked, "Assistant Chi, why are you coming out?"
Chi Rui said, "Mr. Song is taking Lady home..."
Yao Ziwan was stunned. "Home? Together?"
Chi Rui pressed his lips together and nodded. "Mm, it’s public now."
Yao Ziwan was even more dumbfounded, while Chi Rui had already passed her and left the hotel.
Yao Ziwan stood there, glanced at Chi Rui, then looked back into the hall.
Her beautiful brows furrowed slightly: It’s public now? Looks like T City is about to get messy...
...
Messy or not, T City was the last thing on Song Yansheng’s mind. Right now, what he cared about was whether his little girl had been scared by that Jia Haoceng just now, and if she was really okay.
So before going home, he took Shi Nuan to the hospital for a checkup.
He didn’t trust anyone else, so in the end even Qu Yuzuo left the event and went to the hospital with them.
The results showed that physically, Shi Nuan was fine, but she had indeed been frightened.
And that was still because of her underlying psychological issues.
Qu Yuzuo asked Song Yansheng to step outside so he could talk to Shi Nuan alone.
Song Yansheng was originally unwilling, but it was only after Shi Nuan said a few words that he reluctantly went out.
Shi Nuan was willing to accept Qu Yuzuo’s psychological treatment, and that alone made Song Yansheng very relieved.
But even as he felt relieved, he was also afraid.
Qu Yuzuo had once said that Shi Nuan had forgotten the scene of stumbling upon his car accident back then.
That wasn’t a pleasant memory at all, especially when she’d been so young; seeing something like that would definitely have given her a shock.
It was inevitable that her spirit would be traumatized.
If he could, he’d rather Shi Nuan never remembered it.
But was never remembering it truly good for her? Song Yansheng didn’t think so either...
So he handed the choice over to Shi Nuan.
If Shi Nuan wanted to remember, he would respect that and have Qu Yuzuo cooperate and help treat her.
If she didn’t want to, then they would let that memory stay sealed away forever.
In Qu Yuzuo’s break room, Shi Nuan sat on the sofa while Qu Yuzuo poured her a cup of hot tea.
He said, "All I’ve got here is flower tea, but the taste is too bitter, I’m afraid you won’t be used to it. Is plain water okay?"
Shi Nuan nodded. "It’s fine, I usually drink plain water too!"
Qu Yuzuo nodded and sat down on the sofa opposite her.
Shi Nuan held the cup of plain water in both hands, drew in a breath, then spoke: "Dr. Qu, go ahead and say it. No matter what the result is, I’m willing to accept it..."
Qu Yuzuo said, "Actually, there’s nothing seriously wrong with you, but as you’ve noticed, you do have stress reactions to certain bad memories. Once a scene is similar, or even unintentionally, like in your sleep, it can trigger your response mechanism, which then affects your behavior and your emotions..."
Shi Nuan frowned. "Then, Dr. Qu, compared to last time, has my condition... gotten worse?"
Qu Yuzuo said, "What you went through last time—any woman in your place would have been frightened or mentally shaken; that’s a fairly normal reaction. It’s just that you already had some psychological issues, so everything got amplified... Of course, if you say it’s worse than last time, that’s not exactly wrong either, because there are now more mechanisms that can trigger your emotions, and your reactions have become more intense..."
Shi Nuan asked, "Then I... what should I do now? What can I do to make myself at least... a bit more normal?"
After listening, Qu Yuzuo smiled. "Don’t think of it that way, you’re not abnormal. You’re very normal. For example, right now, you can talk to me calmly, and you’re aware of where your problem lies—that’s already very good..."
