Chapter 94 Pei Yanchuan, I'm Afraid

Yu Si paused when he heard this, "Why are you asking this suddenly?"

Yang Cici looked at her obediently and blinked sincerely, "Is it hard to say? I heard that psychologists can't seem to disclose patients' privacy."

Seeing the girl's curious look, Yu Si silently swallowed the words on his lips. "...It's not that strict, but there are many different ones. The most common ones are probably depression and anxiety."

"I see."

Yang Cici took out her cell phone and searched online for the symptoms of these illnesses.

Seeing this, Yu Si asked curiously, "Is there anyone around you who has a mental illness?"

Yang Cici put down her phone, looking hesitant. "He should have it. I just discovered it recently. I didn't notice it before."

Yu Si asked: "No symptoms?"

Symptoms...

Yang Cici recounted Pei Yanchuan's reaction from the past few days: "When he's scared, his body trembles, his hands become very cold, his face becomes very pale, and he hides from me, not wanting me to see him. Is this considered a symptom?"

Yu Si couldn't make a judgment. "It's hard to say. This is also the way normal people feel when they are afraid. We need to see more symptoms and the frequency of the attacks. You can ask your friend to come to my place to take a look."

Yang Cici didn't say yes or no. She just lowered her head and thought for a while before slowly speaking: "If there is a mental illness, what kind of symptoms do they usually tend to have?"

Which one?

Yu Si gave a word: "Anxiety disorder, but it can be divided into mild, moderate and severe."

For example, Pei Yanchuan is almost heading towards a serious condition.

Every time Yu Si thinks about this, he gets a headache.

Pei Yanchuan's situation was already very bad, but this guy suddenly said yesterday that he liked someone.

Isn't this just adding insult to injury? Normal people in love would have many doubts and contradictions, not to mention Pei Yanchuan, who had a lot of mental illnesses.

Talking about it would be a devastating blow.

Yu Si sighed and looked at the girl who was quietly playing with her phone on the sofa. "Ci Ci, are you in a relationship?"

Yang Cici raised her head and blinked slightly guiltily.

"No, why did Sister Yu Si suddenly ask this?"

Yu Si didn't notice her abnormality and rubbed his eyebrows.

"Nothing, just asking casually, but if your friend really has anxiety, you'd better tell him not to get into a relationship."

Yang Cici was stunned and pursed her lips: "Why?"

"Emotions have a huge impact on my condition. It's not good for my condition." Yu Sixiang thought for a moment and added, "Although being in a relationship is great, there will always be conflicts and arguments. In most cases, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages."

Yang Cici pursed her lips, "Really..."

Yu Si just mentioned it casually. She put the pen cap back on, stood up and took off her white coat. "You haven't had dinner yet, come to my house for dinner."

Yang Cici was about to agree, but suddenly remembered something and shook her head. "No, I'll go back and eat."

"Okay, I'll take you back then."

The two went downstairs together and happened to meet Li Xuanmeng who had just returned from outside.

Yu Si took her hand and said naturally, "I was just about to send you a message. I don't have any appointments today. I've locked the door. You don't have to go up. Get in the car."

Yang Cici was slightly startled, moved to the side, pursed her lips and asked, "Is Li Xuanmeng also coming to your house for dinner?"

Yu Si nodded: "Yes, she is here alone, I will let her come to my house for dinner in the evening."

The assistant brought back from abroad is alone here and has no one to know, so Yu Si will naturally take better care of him.

Yang Cici seemed a little slow to react, with a confused expression on her face. It took her a while before she looked at Li Xuanmeng next to her.

Li Xuanmeng's smile was stiff. She felt a little guilty when she was stared at by her. She explained, "Sister Yu Si is too enthusiastic, haha. Actually, I can do it alone..."

Yu Si said with a smile in the front: "It's okay, it's just an extra pair of chopsticks."

Yang Cici pursed her lips, clenched the cloth in her hands, turned her head to look out the window, and said nothing.

Only after getting off the bus did she smile and wave to them: "Bye."

Watching the car drive away, Yang Cici's smile gradually faded.

There was no emotion on her face. After a long while, she lowered her head, took out her phone, pursed her lips and whispered, "It's still early, let's go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables first."

The last time Pei Yanchuan came, most of the food in the refrigerator was cooked and almost gone.

As usual, she bought some vegetables, eggs, and noodles, as well as some spare ribs and shredded pork, and Yang Cici carried the things home.

She put the things in order and put them in the refrigerator. After looking at them quietly for a while, she closed the refrigerator door.

It's strange, I have no appetite again.

Yang Cici sat on the sofa, staring at the empty living room for a while.

...Aren't I considered a person?

No wonder Sister Yu Si hasn't asked me out for dinner these days.

Taking a deep breath, she went to take a shower, then picked up the puzzle she bought yesterday, removed the outer packaging bag, and sat on the cushion to sort out the pieces.

The phone rang, and when I looked down, it was a message from Pei Si.

He sent me a photo of a cat eating. The Ragdoll cat in the photo was pretty and cute, eating shrimp with its head down and slurping.

Pei Si: [I feel like this cat's eyes are very similar to Miss Yang's.]

Yang Cici: [Thank you for the compliment.]

Pei Si: [Miss Yang, have you had dinner yet? I haven't had time to eat yet. I have to get food for this cat first (sighs helplessly and spreads his hands)]

What does it have to do with her?

Did she eat it?

Yang Cici put down her phone and ignored the other person.

I sorted the fragments one by one, then checked the time - eight o'clock.

She sat on the cushion and complained sullenly, "It hasn't come yet."

Pei Yanchuan was one minute late.

Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

She got up and opened the door.

The man at the door was wearing casual clothes, with his hair hanging down in front of his forehead. The contours of his facial features were softened under the light, and he exuded the fragrance of shower gel. He looked like he had just taken a shower.

Pei Yanchuan lowered his head and handed the cake out, saying gently, "Ci Ci, I bought the cake you like."

Yang Cici lowered her head and hummed softly, then took the cake and said, "Come in."

She put the cake on the coffee table and waited for the man to sit over.

Pei Yanchuan sat next to her, glanced at each neatly arranged puzzle piece on the table, and then looked at the girl next to him who was fiddling with the parts.

"What did Ci Ci eat tonight? Noodles again?"

Hearing this, Yang Cici paused, her nose felt sore, she lowered her head and fiddled with the parts silently, her lips tightly pursed.

After a long while, she finally opened her mouth and uttered a soft, trembling voice, "I didn't eat..."

Pei Yanchuan felt that the girl was in a bad mood as soon as he entered the room. He reached out and took the cake on the table, "I just bought a cake, let's eat it together."

Yang Cici shook her head and said nothing.

Pei Yanchuan stopped and tentatively reached out to touch the girl's face, but felt a hint of wetness.

He was slightly stunned and quickly lifted the girl's face.

When he saw the girl's beautiful eyes red from crying, his heart sank and he frowned distressedly. He wiped her tears and whispered to her, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

After being coaxed like this, Yang Cici finally couldn't hold back her tears, and big tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

She wiped her tears and let out a trembling whimper from her throat, like a wronged little animal, confused and at a loss.

"I don't know... I don't know, Pei Yanchuan, I don't know either. I clearly wanted to cook noodles, but after I came back from shopping, I didn't want to eat anything... I don't want to cook. I don't want to do it alone."

She didn't know why, but she was unhappy and felt a tightness in her chest.

After knowing that Li Xuanmeng was so close to Sister Yu Si, and even to Sister Yu Si's family, she felt as if she had returned to her previous life of being alone. Her parents didn't want her, and her uncle and aunt didn't like her either.

Pei Yanchuan used to accompany me, but because of my nonsense, Pei Yanchuan even lost his memory.

She has nothing left.

No one cared about her and she was all alone.

Yang Cici's eyes were red, tears could not stop flowing down, she grabbed the man's arm and sobbed, "Pei Yanchuan, I'm scared... I'm alone again... I have nothing..."

Pei Yanchuan's pupils shrank and his heart ached.

He didn't even care about that. He quickly hugged the girl in his arms, lowered his head and kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Don't cry, baby. I'm here. I'll cook noodles for you, okay?"

Yang Cici hugged his neck, buried her face in his shoulder, and cried in a trembling voice: "...You can only cook noodles for me."

Pei Yanchuan kissed her hair, his voice gentle.

"Okay, just for you."
