Chapter 368 She has depression

The man's gaze was intense, and the deep love in his eyes was impossible to ignore.

Shen Qingshu gently patted his shoulder with her other hand, "Let go first, treatment is the priority."

Fu Siyan released his hand without lingering.

He just wanted Shen Qingshu to know his decision.

But he dared not hope that Shen Qingshu would accept him immediately.

After all, there were still many things between them that hadn't been clarified.

Shen Qingshu gave the nurse a few instructions before leaving the emergency room and heading towards the inpatient department.

...

Qiao Xingjia had a fever and remained unconscious.

Qin Yancheng stayed by his side without leaving for a moment.

Shen Qingshu felt she should do something.

She looked at Qin Yancheng and said, "Dr. Qin, there's something Xingxing has been trying to keep from you, but now that things have escalated like this, I have to tell you."

Qin Yancheng looked at Shen Qingshu, a sense of unease welling up inside him.

"Xingxing has depression."

Qin Yancheng was stunned.

After a long pause, he finally opened his mouth, his voice heavy, "When did this happen?"

"I'm not entirely sure about the exact time of diagnosis."

Shen Qingshu sighed and said, "However, it should have started as postpartum depression, and later it was probably due to memory recovery, with both her mind and postpartum hormone levels affecting her. She hasn't reached the point where she needs medication yet. She is intentionally trying to adjust and change herself. I know you are very concerned about her going abroad, but have you ever thought about why she resolutely chose to go abroad alone when she was sick and needed the understanding of those around her the most?"

Qin Yancheng's breath hitched, and he looked down at Qiao Xingjia, who was sleeping soundly on the bed.

"Also, that boy actually just lives downstairs from her. He helped her when she was sick before. They are just ordinary friends."

Qin Yancheng felt extremely guilty. "Actually, after calming down, I realized that I had misunderstood her."

“Dr. Qin, I won’t judge your actions this time, but if you don’t want a divorce, you should communicate properly with Xingxing instead of involving the elders. In fact, have you ever thought that Xingxing’s trip abroad was not to escape you and Xiaoxingchen?”

Qin Yancheng suddenly looked at Shen Qingshu.

“Aunt Qiao has always had a strong desire to control Xingxing, but after what happened to Xingxing, her desire to control became even more severe. When she came to me, she asked me to stop having any contact with Xingxing. At that time, I agreed because I felt guilty and because I needed to leave Beicheng.”

Shen Qingshu sighed heavily as she finished speaking, "Now that I see how things have turned out between Aunt Qiao and Xingxing, I think my decision back then might have been wrong."

Qin Yancheng frowned deeply, his mind in turmoil.

“Dr. Qin, you are a smart person. I don’t believe that you haven’t noticed Aunt Qiao’s problem at all in the past four years.”

Qin Yancheng was taken aback, a hint of guilt flashing in his eyes.

Shen Qingshu saw his reaction clearly and exposed it without any mercy.

"Qin Yancheng, you are using Aunt Qiao to help you control the Bound Star."

Qin Yancheng's pupils contracted sharply.

"I..." He opened his mouth, wanting to say 'I didn't,' but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

“Mental illness can be minor or major, Dr. Qin. Xingxing does have some personality issues, but as you saw today, with Aunt Qiao's parenting style, it's hard for her not to rebel. When she first met me in high school, she wasn't like this. Back then, she experienced bullying at school, and she was even an unhappy girl. Later, after we got to know each other, we studied together and confided in each other, and she gradually became more confident. Later, Uncle Qiao bought her a camera, and from that day on, she began to have aspirations for life and the future. But later, we went to different universities, and she chose medical school, so she rarely mentioned photography anymore. Actually, she loves photography, but she compromised so as not to disappoint Aunt Qiao.”

"Also, although Xingxing is against marriage, you two came together because of amnesia. She also wanted to live a good life with you. However, your married life is permeated with Aunt Qiao's control. You may not have noticed Aunt Qiao's influence on Xingxing at first, but what about now? I don't believe you haven't seen it yet. But you have also accepted Aunt Qiao's control over Xingxing. In fact, you yourself have gradually become the second Aunt Qiao."

“Xingxing… she actually longs for you to discover her true inner needs, but the love you express to her is all about possession and control. How is this kind of love any different from Aunt Qiao’s?”

Qin Yancheng's face was ashen.

He couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

Because Shen Qingshu was absolutely right.

...

After leaving Qiao Xingjia's ward, Shen Qingshu went to the emergency room lobby.

Shao Qinggang arrived.

Fu Siyan had changed into a clean and comfortable set of clothes.

Both hands were wrapped in thick gauze.

It looks rather comical.

The nurse instructed, "Don't get it wet these days. You need to come in every day for the first three days to change the dressing."

Fu Siyan responded calmly.

Shen Qingshu walked over at that moment.

Upon seeing her, Shao Qing immediately greeted her respectfully: "Miss Chen."

Shen Qingshu nodded slightly to him, then turned her gaze to Fu Siyan, "Does he need to be hospitalized?"

Fu Siyan glanced at the IV bottle, which was less than a third full, and said, "Go back after you finish the IV."

Shen Qingshu paused for a moment, then asked, "Have you had someone take care of you these past few days?"

Before Fu Siyan could speak, Shao Qing immediately interjected, "I'll take care of Mr. Fu!"

Fu Siyan: "..."

Shen Qingshu nodded, "With Shao Qing taking care of you, I won't worry about it."

Fu Siyan: "..."

“Yi Yi is still waiting for me,” Shen Qingshu said. “I’m going back first. You guys go back and be careful on your way back after you finish your IV drip.”

Fu Siyan looked at her, a fleeting look of melancholy in his eyes.

But she still replied, "Okay, be careful on your way back. It's raining, so tell Tan Yiyi to drive slowly."

"Yes, I will," Shen Qingshu replied, then turned and left.

Only after the woman's figure had completely disappeared from sight did Fu Siyan turn his gaze away.

Turning his head, he gave Shao Qing a sharp look.

Shao Qing, sensing a powerful killing intent, was speechless.

Fu Siyan frowned. "Shao Qing, how old are you this year?"

Shao Qing scratched the back of his head: "I'm 30."

"Why haven't you found a partner yet?"

Shao Qing: "..."

"Is it because your emotional intelligence is too low and you're not likable that no woman is interested in you?"

Shao Qing: "..."

...

After Shen Qingshu returned to the Lijiang Villa.

He took the agreement back to his room.

She took out the agreement and looked at it again and again.

It is the original.

Both copies are available.

Did Qi Mingxuan just let Fu Siyan off the hook like that?

Shen Qingshu felt something was off.

How could a proud and strong woman like Qi Mingxuan easily give up?

And what is this bet she mentioned?

Is it a bet with Han Mingyu?

Shen Qingshu couldn't figure it out, but she was also a little worried, so she simply called Han Mingyu.

The call was answered quickly by Han Mingyu.

Shen Qingshu cut to the chase: "Han Mingyu, what exactly is going on between you and Qi Mingxuan?"

On the other end, Han Mingyu paused.

After a moment, he asked, "Has Qi Mingxuan come looking for you?"

“Yes.” Shen Qingshu told the truth, “She invited me to a villa halfway up a mountain in the suburbs and told me a story.”

On the other end, Han Mingyu's grip on his phone tightened slightly.
