The doctor diagnosed a neuralgic headache.

Let her get enough rest, walk around in open areas more often, don't always lock herself in a small space, and don't put too much pressure on yourself.

She tried hard to grab something, her head was splitting with pain, and it was nothing but pain.

“Jiaojiao…”

"Jiaojiao, what's wrong with you?"

Pei Zhiting held her in his arms, and with trembling fingers, he stroked the back of her head, comforting her again and again.

"I'm fine..."

Song Xijiao grabbed his hand, the images in her mind disappeared, and the pain of her heart suddenly contracting also disappeared.

Aunt Liu made a fish head soup with Gastrodia elata and Angelica sinensis to treat headaches.

Song Xijiao ate half a bowl of rice, drank half a bowl of soup, and ate some vegetables, and then she couldn't eat anymore.

Pei Zhiting didn't force her. After putting her on the bed, he also lay down on his side, holding her in his arms and using her as a pillow.

In the middle of the night, she woke up because of hunger.

The person holding me was not in the bed either.

I opened the bedroom door and saw a faint light coming from downstairs.

She walked down the stairs in her slippers. At the corner, Pei Zhiting was talking to someone.

"You are committing fraud, which is illegal..."

"I can hire a lawyer to sue you..."

"You are doing false advertising. I can file a complaint with the Consumers Association..."

It must be a sales call. She was just about to tell him to hang up and not get sick from anger.

He held the phone in his hand and sat down on the sofa dejectedly, forgetting to hang up the phone.

"Hello……"

"I'm like, how can you hang up the phone after just one curse?"

"How did I commit false advertising? How did I break the law?"

Song Xijiao: "..."

She seemed to have misunderstood.

It's not a sales call, it's a scam call.

She spoke awkwardly into the phone, "I'm sorry, he has mental problems. I'll take him to the hospital right away."

He took the phone from Pei Zhiting, swiped to the call page, and pulled down to the red button.

"Jiaojiao, I..."

"It's just a scam call. Why bother arguing with him if you call him a psycho and hang up?"

"He said, if I don't buy you medicine, it means I don't love you. I must buy you medicine, then I really love you."

Song Xijiao was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "What kind of medicine did he sell you? Why are you so angry?"

“…”

"What kind of medicine is romance?"

"He calls Viagra a romance movie."

“…”

No wonder he's so angry!

Pei Zhiting breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't argue with him about this issue anymore.

He opened the refrigerator and found a bowl of fish head soup that Aunt Liu had specially reserved for her, with a layer of white oil on top.

He picked up two pieces of fish head.

Pick out all the dried tofu, tofu, bean curd sheets, and tofu-related items.

Put it in a casserole, add purified water, put in green onion knots and ginger slices, turn on low heat and simmer slowly.

He took out the ramen noodles he had freshly pulled that morning, smashed them on the chopping board a few times, and pulled them into long, thin strands.

Put the noodles in a pot when the water boils, cook for two minutes, and then take out the noodles.

After being boiled in cold water, it is put into the casserole. When the boiling fish soup is added, the pot makes crackling sounds.

Add shepherd's purse and salt, add two drops of sesame oil, add chopped green onion, stir evenly with chopsticks, then take a soup bowl, put the noodles into the bowl, pour in the fish soup, pick up the casserole and place it on the heat insulation pad.

"You can eat now."

Song Xijiao smelled the delicious aroma of the fish soup, and the glutton in her stomach growled even louder, but she said, "I'm not hungry."

"I just heard you talking in your sleep."

"No."

"You said it."

"No."

"You said you wanted fish head noodle soup."

"I don't want to."

"That proves you're not hungry enough. If you're hungry any longer, you'll want to eat."

“…”

He understood her.

She is a stubborn person and needs to be given the right way.

Just like the wild hedgehog, if you want to bring her home, you can't just do it blindly. You have to find something convenient and scoop her up when she isn't paying attention. After bringing her home, you can't touch her immediately. You have to wait until she is familiar with the environment at home. While she is eating, touch her one by one to let her down her guard slowly.

After finishing the noodles, the two lay back on the bed. Song Xijiao had been sleeping since six o'clock and had counted a thousand sheep, but still couldn't fall asleep.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I always feel like I've forgotten something important?"

"For example?"

"A very important person to me."

Pei Zhiting held her hand, slightly stiff. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Why would you think so?"

"I keep having strange images flashing through my mind."

“…”

"Did you see her face clearly?"

"No, my hair covered my face, so I couldn't see his features clearly."

It’s okay if you can’t see clearly.

The next day, Song Xijiao went to work. Pei Zhiting asked Pei Yu to host the Monday morning meeting for him, while he went to Peking University. University teachers had an easy job. Some teachers only had one class a week, or only two classes a day.

"Can you understand the picture you drew?"

“Would you live in the house you designed?”

“You’re designing a work of art, not a house.”

“…”

When Pei Zhiting arrived, Song Hua was scolding a girl and ran out of the office crying.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Song Hua."

Song Hua didn't expect that her son-in-law, Pei Zhiting, would come to see her. She was stunned for a moment, took off her glasses, pinched her nose, and said slowly, "What's wrong with Jiaojiao?"

"Did she encounter something bad in her childhood, such as molestation, imprisonment, bullying, etc.? She recently recalled some bad things..."

"No."

"That didn't happen to her."

Song Hua interrupted him, put on his glasses, lowered his head, and continued to look through his homework.

"I raised Jiaojiao myself. When she was three, she could recite over a hundred ancient poems and do addition and subtraction within 100. She is very well-behaved and sensible. She helps me with housework and doesn't talk to strangers. Every day, she goes back and forth between home and school, giving no one the chance to hurt her."

"Since she has never been hurt, why would she have problems with her memory?"

"The doctor said that she lost her memory because she suffered a severe psychological trauma and her brain activated its self-protection mechanism. You can hide what happened to her from others, but you can't hide it from me. I want to take her for hypnosis."

"no."

"She won't be able to bear it if she thinks about it."

"She always thought that I divorced her father because of a breakdown in our relationship, but that's not the case."

“That year, my parents were in a car accident on their way to a seminar and both passed away.”

"I couldn't spare the time, so Zhao Hairong took care of Jiaojiao. But he left Jiaojiao at home and went off to hang out with Lin Qingrou."

"There's a pedophile living across the street from us. We called the police and searched for her for miles around. The pervert built a wall with a layer of insulation. She could hear us looking for her, but we couldn't see her."
