Chapter 104

Luo Huaizheng noticed that Xiang Siling was a little different today.

He drove her fancy sports car to the destination. In the past, she was always very active at such times, talking non-stop, and it was hard to tell whether it was true or false. Or she would suddenly hold his arm, and after he waved her off, she would not get angry, and would stick to him like a soft shelled bug...

But today she was very silent, as if she was a different person.

She was wearing an off-white short-sleeved silk shirt, one hand grasping her other bare forearm, looking out of the car, looking like a cold and beautiful sculpture.

Luo Huaizheng naturally didn't say anything either.

After a long time, Xiang Siling asked, "Have you got the projects from Chengdong Group, Dingrui, and New Sanyo?"

These three companies were all key clients introduced to him by Xiang Siling, all thanks to her connections.

Luo Huaizheng replied: "Chengdong and Dingrui have already signed the contract, and Xin Sanyo is still waiting for the bidding results."

"That's good."

Luo Huaizheng felt a surge of self-mockery and said, "Thank you very much."

She said nothing.

This was different from usual. In the past, she would have climbed up the pole, pinched his arm, or said something weird in a coquettish voice. But today, nothing happened. Her eyebrows were drooping, and she looked less charming and more delicate and reserved.

Luo Huaizheng held the steering wheel firmly and continued driving without any expression.

The doctor Xiang Siling saw was one of the most famous psychologists in Xiangcheng, Zhou Lingling. Her studio was in a commercial villa by the river. The whole studio was painted in beige and white, fresh and elegant, which made people feel warm.

The studio operates by appointment, and there is no one else here except them at this time. The nurse led them to the door of Zhou Lingling's office, opened Xiang Siling's exclusive sign-in book, and asked her to sign. As the nurse flipped through the book, Luo Huaizheng noticed that the earliest date Xiang Siling came for psychological counseling was 2021.

That was the year she graduated from college.

"Okay, Ms. Xiang, you can go in. Doctor Zhou is waiting for you." The nurse said, "Sir, there is a rest area over there. You can go over there and have some tea. There are also newspapers and magazines."

Xiang Siling stood at the door of Zhou Lingling's office and turned to look at Luo Huaizheng.

Luo Huaizheng also looked at her.

She smiled. That smile was different from usual, very quiet and a little soft.

"Will you wait for me?" she asked.

Seeing that they had something to say, the nurse smiled, picked up the documents and left.

Luo Huaizheng said: "Since I promised to accompany you to see the doctor, I will wait until it's over and send you back."

"Thank you," she said. "You've worked hard these days. I know you're annoyed with me and hate me. But you're still as nice as before and didn't let me down. Even though I'm such a bad person, you wouldn't hurt me casually. Thank you, Luo Huaizheng."

Tears welled up in her eyes, tears that looked so real and sad. She turned, knocked on the door, and entered the doctor's office.

Luo Huaizheng stood there, not knowing what to feel.

-

Zhou Lingling and Xiang Siling were old acquaintances. She sat behind the desk with a gentle attitude and said, "Sit down." Seeing Xiang Siling's red eyes, she asked, "What's wrong? Are you encountering difficulties at work again?" She also knew about Xiang Siling's succession and had confided in her several times before.

Xiang Siling shook his head and said, "Luo Huaizheng is outside."

Xiang Siling had told her about the Xiang family's case, and Zhou Lingling had also done some background research herself.

Zhou Lingling sighed and said, "From the beginning, I didn't agree with you getting close to him and using him to fulfill your girlhood dream. Whether from a moral or psychological point of view, this is like drinking poison to quench thirst, it will not help, and will cause secondary harm to others.

So now, do you really feel that your regrets have been made up? Do you feel psychologically satisfied and healed? Tell me the truth. "

Xiang Siling lowered her eyes and used her fingers to pull at the leather on the armrest of the chair. She knew she couldn't pull it at all, but she kept repeating the action.

"I feel very satisfied. He is the only person I loved before I was 18. In the past, I read some books that described some people as the moon in the sky and the rainbow. I couldn't imagine it. After meeting him, I realized that the moon and the rainbow really exist. He is so good. Now that I have the ability, what's wrong with forcing him to dream with me?
You have to know that my love for him during those years was pure and without any impurities. I will never have such emotions and moods again in my life.

Although he has changed now, and is not as high-spirited as he was when he was young, and is looked down upon by many people. But I still think he shines wherever he goes, because his heart is pure. I envy him so much, and I really want to help him. "

"But you still didn't get him, right?" Zhou Lingling looked into her eyes, "Then can you also be satisfied?"

Xiang Siling's smile disappeared, and she said in a serious tone: "Doctor Zhou, you are wrong. I never thought I could get him, how could I deserve him? Seeing that he is still alive and well and working hard, I am very happy.

Not only him, but also his girlfriend Li Qingyao, who I mentioned to you before, was also an indirect victim. Now she is a police officer, and she is still as proud as before, which makes me very happy. If the two of them can be together again, I will be even happier. They should be together, that is the ending of a fairy tale. "

"You're crying again." Zhou Lingling pulled out a tissue and handed it to her. "You feel guilty about them, right?" Xiang Siling wiped away her tears and shook her head. "Why should I feel guilty about others? No one has ever felt guilty about me."

Zhou Lingling sighed, but she knew that Xiang Siling would not say anything if she asked further, just like every time she consulted with him. This girl had a deep and perseverant psychological quality beyond her age. She was like this every time she came for consultation, and her words were true and false. When she encountered something she didn't want to say, Zhou Lingling, no matter how experienced she was, couldn't make her speak. So three years later, to this day, Zhou Lingling still hadn't figured out the truth of Xiang Wei's case.

However, as a psychological counselor, Zhou Lingling did not deliberately seek the truth of the case. In her opinion, finding Xiang Siling's psychological problems and seeking a cure are the most important things.

"You still can't remember more about what happened that night?" Zhou Lingling asked.

Xiang Siling inserted her fingers into her long hair in distress and said, "I still only remember Luo Huaizheng hitting my dad on the head with a candlestick. I can't remember what happened afterwards."

Zhou Lingling looked at her deeply: "Then do you still want to continue to be hypnotized?"

"Let's try. I don't want to give up."

Xiang Siling lay on the bed, Zhou Lingling dimmed the lights. Xiang Siling closed her eyes, and gradually, Zhou Lingling's voice seemed to come from far away.

"You didn't go to school today, why?"

"Because..." Xiang Siling closed her eyes tightly, revealing an expression that was difficult to explain, "Because it hurts."

"are you sick?"

"No."

"Where does it hurt?"

"It hurts down there."

"why?"

Xiang Siling stopped talking, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

"Okay." Zhou Lingling changed the question, "Your father Xiang Wei is back. Did you see him?"

"I saw it."

"What was he wearing?"

"Blue, blue short-sleeved shirt, black pants."

"What is he doing?"

Xiang Siling was in a trance, as if she had returned to that summer night seven years ago. There was no light on at home, and no one was there. She lay on the sofa in the living room, her lower body hurting and her mouth dry. She wanted to drink some water, but she didn't want to move.

The curtains in the living room were drawn tightly, leaving only a thin gap for a little light to leak in. The whole room was filled with a faint fishy smell, and the 18-year-old Xiang Siling felt like a maggot hiding in the dark, only able to creep around secretly.

The school was only eight or nine hundred meters away from home, but it seemed very far away. Whenever she returned home from school, she felt like she had returned to another world. In this world, there were no dreams, no friends, and no shy, introverted and hardworking Xiang Siling. There was only the bitch in bed who made men crazy and obsessed.

The door opened and Xiang Wei came back.

Xiang Siling sat up almost immediately and curled up into a ball subconsciously.

Xiang Wei stood at the door, stared at her and asked, "Why didn't you go to school?"

She lowered her head: "I feel uncomfortable."

"Oh." Xiang Wei smiled, "Are you feeling uncomfortable again?"

Xiang Siling stood up and walked towards the room. It can't be said that she walked, she almost ran. But how could she be a match for an adult man? Xiang Wei even forgot to close the door, rushed over and grabbed her arm. Although the light was dim, Xiang Wei could still distinguish the girl's thin and white calves exposed outside, and the plump and delicate curves wrapped in cloth. It was completely different from that of an adult woman. He thought, why didn't he realize that this little bitch had grown up to be so beautiful and attractive.

He leaned close to her ear and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, Dad will poke you."

Xiang Siling was shaking all over, and she was out of control, but she didn't dare to resist: "Dad... don't do this... don't do this anymore, please!"

"Don't call me dad." Xiang Wei pushed her onto the sofa. "You are not my child. I have raised you for so many years in vain. Shouldn't you repay me? Otherwise, I have gained nothing in more than ten years? Damn! If you want to blame someone, blame your shameless mother. You and your mother owe me this!"

Xiang Siling didn't even dare to resist, because resistance would mean a beating. Her whole body was tense, like a shivering scarecrow about to be torn apart and eaten.

It was at this moment that Luo Huaizheng pushed the door open.

When the young Luo Huaizheng used all his strength to push Xiang Wei, a grown man, off Xiang Siling, embarrassment, pain and despair... all exploded in Xiang Siling's heart, and she let out a sharp scream.

Xiang Wei has already started fighting with Luo Huaizheng.
