Chapter 414 Psychological Genius

"President, this Chu Yuexuan is no ordinary person. Before the car accident, everyone thought he was just a brainless young master who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun. None of the Chu family's competitors took him seriously. But after he rose to power, his ruthless methods and the depth of his hidden strength were astonishing." Qin He reminded him, "He is also a key person that Chairman Li is trying to win over."

"Don't alert him yet. The old man definitely has other plans. Go investigate this Chu Yuexuan. I need to know his trump card." Li Tingxi doesn't fight battles he's not confident of winning. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.

He paused, then frowned. "Don't let Su Su know about this."

Qin He immediately understood when he thought of the rumors about body doubles circulating in the industry—the president probably didn't want his wife to be reminded of painful memories.

"clear."

at the same time.

Su Youling was worried about Li Tingxi's condition, so she contacted Rebecca again and finally got a definite answer, but it was somewhat unexpected: "Xia Zhiying? A psychologist in China? I've never heard of her before?"

“Because she’s now the president’s assistant, not doing her old job anymore,” Rebecca said with a hint of helplessness. “Xia Zhiying is a top student in the psychology department of St. John’s University. Her resume is exceptionally impressive. Although she is very young, every patient she has treated is a heavyweight. However, she is known to the public as Professor Greens, after all, she was just a student back then.”

Professor Greens?

Su Youling was shocked.

This name is that of a towering figure in the field of psychology; he is exceptionally accomplished.

She wanted to invite this person from the beginning, but unfortunately she didn't have the connections.

“In my early years, my health was poor, I encountered creative blocks, and some family issues led to serious psychological problems.” Rebecca recalled with a heavy tone, “Professor Greens personally treated me several times, but it was ineffective because I was very defensive and had little will to live at that time…”

"Later, Xia Zhiying suddenly appeared at the art exhibition, slowly approaching me as a fan, gradually opening my defenses. When I found out..."

By then, I already considered her a friend. Later, it was she who accompanied Professor Greens in my treatment, which allowed me to persevere until now.

"Such a brilliant psychology genius, why..." Su Youling sighed deeply. Knowing Rebecca as she did, successfully treating her when she had no will to live and was very wary was definitely not an easy task.

That Xia Zhiying is a gifted and capable person.

A thought flashed through her mind, and she suddenly realized something was wrong: "Since you know such an important person, why didn't you tell me when you called last time?"

Previously, when Su Youling called Rebecca to find a psychologist, she only said she would have a consultation, without mentioning that such a suitable candidate was available.

“You’re just too perceptive, which is why I don’t dare recommend her to you.” Rebecca hesitated for a moment and said softly, “Back then, I also regretted that she gave up psychology. But Xia Zhiying has a relationship experience very similar to yours, and she’s deeply involved in it. Outsiders can’t persuade her otherwise.”

“I’m worried that if you meet her, your similar romantic experiences won’t be good for the treatment or for either of you, and it will disrupt your peaceful life with Li Tingxi. If you hadn’t been in such a hurry tonight, I really wouldn’t have wanted to bring her up.”

“But she’s the most suitable candidate, isn’t she?” Su Youling finally understood why Rebecca had been hesitant before.

Because they were friends, her first thought was always about herself, not about how Li Tingxi's mind would change.

However, since she has decided to move on, facing the past is inevitable.

"Rebecca, Li Tingxi is even more defensive than you, which is worse."

"His condition is serious, and most psychologists simply can't open him up, which is what I've been worried about." Su Youling breathed a sigh of relief. "But judging from your introduction of that genius, she's clearly very experienced."

She made up her mind: "Perhaps only Dr. Xia can cure Li Tingxi's illness."

“Since you’re not afraid, then I have nothing to worry about.” Rebecca heard Xia Zhiying’s carefree tone and knew that things were going well between her and Li Tingxi these days, so she stopped worrying. “Xia Zhiying, I’ll help you make an appointment. I think you two will most likely become good friends.”

She paused, her tone tinged with pleading and expectation, "Lingling, she's also my friend. If possible, I hope you can help her get out of this mess and find her true self, just like you have."

Su Youling's heart skipped a beat. Thinking of her past despair and helplessness, she looked forward to Dr. Xia even more. "Don't worry, your friend is also my friend. If she is really as you say... helping her is like redeeming my past self."

Rebecca breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that Li Tingxi has given you a lot of motivation, making you a better person. That's how it should be; a good relationship should make each other better, not just lead to internal conflict."

Su Youling smiled.

Having solved a major problem, I feel much more at ease.

The next day.

City A, Chu Family.

"Yuexuan, not here..."

The bright floor-to-ceiling windows reflected the image of Xia Zhiying being enveloped by the man's slender body, her whole body trembling uncontrollably with tension and fear.

Although the villa across the street is some distance away, there's no guarantee that it won't be seen by others. What's the difference between that and open debauchery?

Xia Zhiying instinctively tried to run, but her wrist was suddenly locked.

Chu Yuexuan leaned down and bit her earlobe, "You

"Wouldn't it be a waste not to use these little gadgets I bought especially for this purpose?"

Xia Zhiying looked at the pink handcuffs on her wrists and her face turned pale.

Yesterday, Xia's mother mailed a large box, saying it was a gift for her and Chu Yuexuan's fifth wedding anniversary.

Four years ago, Chu Yuexuan and his sister Xia Zhineng started a high-profile relationship, which helped Xia's family solve its financial crisis. Not long after, Chu Yuexuan was involved in a serious car accident and fell into a coma. Xia Zhineng was bedridden for a long time before she also passed away.

Before Chu Yuexuan could even grieve and mourn his lover's death after waking up, he discovered that the car accident was orchestrated by Xia Zhineng, though the reasons behind it remained unknown.

The Chu family was furious and drove the Xia family to the brink of bankruptcy. In order to protect their interests, Xia's father devised a plan to send his adopted daughter, Xia Zhiying, to Chu Yuexuan's bed.

Perhaps it was because she resembled Xia Zhiying so much when she danced that Chu Yuexuan spared the Xia family, signed a four-year secret marriage contract with Xia Zhiying, and kept her by his side as a substitute, bearing the love, hate and torment that he should have given to Xia Zhiying.

For the past four years, Xia Zhiying has hidden her true nature and been forced to learn Xia Zhining's words and actions. In public, she is President Chu's all-around assistant, and in private, she is Mr. Chu's substitute wife, nanny, housekeeper, and therapist.

Four years ago, she gave up her promising future to return to China to marry in place of this man because she truly loved him. However, after four years of humiliation, Xia Zhiying now longs for a divorce as soon as possible and has no desire to open any wedding anniversary gifts!

I never expected Xia's mother to have put such stimulating things inside! And Chu Yuexuan even misunderstood!

"Ningning..." In the heat of the moment, Chu Yuexuan whispered Xia Zhining's name in her ear. Xia Zhiying snapped out of her reverie, wrapped her arms around the man's neck, and gently replied, "Let's go to bed, okay?"

She was originally a substitute for Xia Zhineng to appease Chu Yuexuan. The four-year agreement was exchanged for her to completely sever ties with the Xia family and awaken this hopeless unrequited love... to gain her freedom. It was a fair trade.

She has something to ask for, so naturally she has to pay the price with dignity and acting skills; there's nothing pretentious about it.
