Chapter 058 Chapter 58

"Xia Meng and I are together."

Zhou Qi spat out a mouthful of hot tea.

The young assistant was handing Zhou Qi a document for signature. Upon hearing this, the documents in his hands fell to the ground with a clatter.

Li Zhou sat on the sofa across from them and said this with a serious face, then raised an eyebrow: "Why are you so surprised?"

Zhou Qi coughed and silently moved the teacup aside.

He didn't even bother to sign the document. He stared in astonishment at Li Zhou's face, which couldn't contain his joy, and blankly went over the words Li Zhou had just said in his mind three times.

He is with Xia Meng.

He and Xia Meng are together.

He is with Xia Meng.

Zhou Qi: “………………”

Is that what he understood?

Zhou Qi subconsciously glanced at the office door.

When Li Zhou came in just now, he didn't even close the door.

I don't know if he did it on purpose, or if he did it on purpose, or if he did it on purpose.

Early on Monday morning, everyone was clocking in for work one after another.

The atmosphere in the office on Monday was extremely depressing.

Everyone looked bitter and resentful.

Only Li Zhou looked refreshed.

Zhou Qi suddenly didn't want to ask them what happened over the weekend.

He sighed, raised his hand to scratch his hairline which had begun to move upwards, and glanced at the young assistant.

The assistant's pupils had been dizzy for a long time, as if he had heard something shocking.

Wow!

Li Zhou!

They are the only S-class in the country!

Xia Meng!

This B-level wizard can only be described as "magical"!

They are together! !

He had to hurry out and spread this shocking news—!

Just when he was halfway through his thought, he met Zhou Qi's warning eyes.

The young assistant has been with Zhou Qi for so many years that he immediately understood what Zhou Qi meant with just one look.

Obviously, Zhou Qi's eyes meant: Shut up! Shut up everyone involved!

This news must not be spread!

The assistant quickly bent down to pick up the document and put it on the table.

Pretending that he hadn't heard anything, he trotted out of the office.

Before leaving, he even closed the door considerately.

The door closed with a snap.

The young assistant stood outside the office door, holding his chest and taking deep breaths.

A colleague passing by glanced at him curiously: "What's wrong? What exciting new news did you get from the director?"

The young assistant gave him a sad look. This person understood him too well!

But, he really can't pass this melon on to anyone else, otherwise he will be cut into pieces.

In the office.

Li Zhou frowned and glanced at the closed door.

Obviously, he was not very satisfied with Zhou Qi's action of asking people to close the door.

How could Zhou Qi not understand the look in his eyes?

Zhou Qi: “…”

He raised his hand and pinched his philtrum, feeling that he was almost suffocating.

The sentries nowadays are getting harder and harder to lead.

Zhou Qi looked at Li Zhou for a long time, hesitant to speak.

For a moment, thousands of words floated through his mind.

Of course, Black Tower’s attitude is a matter for the future.

Zhou Qi’s first reaction was to ask him: Does Wang Xiangyi know about this?

If Wang Xiangyi knew, wouldn’t he beat you to death?

If he doesn't know, congratulations, you will soon be beaten to death by that old father who protects his child.

Zhou Qi sighed.

Think about Wang Xiangyi back then, the man who would kill gods and Buddhas and was afraid of ghosts.

I feel that Li Zhou will suffer in the future.

Zhou Qi stood up, walked to Li Zhou with his hands behind his back and sat down.

He felt as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

He really didn't understand.

How long have these two known each other?

It's been less than two weeks at most? Are they already in love?

Oh, including the time the two of them spent in the mental image, there is some.

Zhou Qi hesitated for a long time before wanting to speak.

Love between two people can be a big deal or a small matter.

If I have to say, this generation of young people is much more open-minded about love than previous generations, and breaking up and getting back together is very normal.

Based on Zhou Qi's understanding of these two children.

He couldn't guess what Xia Meng was thinking.

But he knew Li Zhou. This kid was much more stubborn than he looked.

If Li Zhou sets his sights on something, he will definitely stick to it to the end.

Could it be that this kid is pestering Xia Meng?

Or were some special means used?

If he remembered correctly, Li Zhou also seemed to possess psychic abilities.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qi finally couldn't help but ask Li Zhou his first question of the day: "...Did you brainwash Xia Meng? Or did you force her?"

Li Zhou: “…”

In Zhou Qi's impression, Xia Meng is an extremely smart little fox.

She couldn't possibly not know that once she was with Li Zhou, she would have to face endless troubles.

Being an S-level partner is not easy.

Especially when in the eyes of many people, they are not a good match.

Li Zhou straightened his chest and said loudly: "We are in love with each other!"

Zhou Qi: “…”

Look how proud you are.

Zhou Qi put those possible concerns aside for the time being.

He asked a question that stood between the two of them and had to be solved.

Zhou Qi felt like he was possessed by Wang Xiangyi at this moment.

Like a concerned old father, he asked earnestly, "I remember you were convinced you had a guide, right? Have you mentioned this to her? Have you considered how to resolve this?"

Li Zhou was silent for a moment.

He himself has no idea about this matter at the moment.

Fortunately, Xia Meng's previous statement gave him enough confidence.

He replied, "We've talked about it, and she's willing to work with me to sort this out."

Zhou Qi pondered and roughly understood their determination.

I also understood Xia Meng's attitude.

It seems that she is not just playing around.

Zhou Qi let out a long breath.

Bless you.

I can only wish you all the best.

From the perspective of an elder who has known Li Zhou for many years and likes Xia Meng very much, he should indeed send his blessings.

But from the Black Tower's perspective...

Zhou Qi had a headache.

I’m afraid the people above me won’t agree.

They might even intervene.

——Speaking of the Black Tower intervening in the sentry pairing.

Zhou Qi thought of Wang Xiangyi.

There are a lot of rumors about Wang Xiangyi in Heita now.

But not many people really know what happened back then.

Those people back then have either retired or been transferred out of Beijing Tower long ago.

Almost everyone who had anything to do with Wang Xiangyi was unable to stay.

Zhou Qi was relatively lucky as he had just graduated from school that year.

Before I had the chance to enter the Black Tower Special Service Center, I only heard about the rumors from my predecessors.

Wang Xiangyi was interfered with by the Black Tower in the past.

However, his situation is exactly the opposite of Xia Meng and Li Zhou.

He was being forced by the people in the Black Tower to match him with a sentinel.

The other party is an A-level sentinel with a very prominent background.

In Beijing, a place where a thrown brick can hit three children of powerful people, her family is considered to be one of the most prestigious.

I heard that a lot of things happened in the meantime.

Zhou Qi didn't know much at the time. He only knew that Wang Xiangyi had fought for a long time and had a falling out with Heita.

From then on, Wang Xiangyi swore that he would never set foot in the Black Tower again.

...If not for this, Zhou Qi would not have come up with such a bad idea to tie people up in the Black Tower.

Zhou Qi touched his chin.

Think about the old things between Wang Xiangyi and the Black Tower.

Now the old grudges have not been resolved and new hatred has been added.

I'm afraid some of them have been beaten.

Zhou Qi looked at Li Zhou.

He asked meaningfully, "Have you ever worried about being blocked by the higher-ups?"

As a result, Li Zhou's reaction was somewhat beyond Zhou Qi's expectations.

Li Zhou calmly asked back, "Why should you worry?"

Zhou Qi was slightly startled: "Aren't you afraid that they will come forward to interfere with you two?"

How precious is S-level?

And he is an S-level with no background.

How many people are staring at him?

What's the best way to control a Sentinel?

Merit, fame, wealth, and salary...what are these things compared to the whistle engraving?

The seal is the most powerful weapon that can directly control the sentinels.

The reason why the Black Tower did not arrange any guide for Li Zhou over the years and let him go alone was, on the one hand, because he always claimed that he had an engraved guide, and on the other hand, because no guide with a high enough match with him was found.

Even if Black Tower wanted to, it didn't have the ability.

If Li Zhou announced at this time that he had found a guide as his partner, and that she was a B-level guide with an 80% match rate with him, the Black Tower would definitely make some response.

Zhou Qi thought that if the Black Tower still maintained the same tough attitude as before, things would probably be troublesome.

If things go wrong, both sides might end up suffering losses.

If Heita had learned his lesson and realized that he couldn't fight head-on, he would most likely try to figure out what Xia Meng was doing.

The ideal situation would be for Black Tower to try to win over Xia Meng, and then use Xia Meng to control Li Zhou.

If the situation is not ideal... the Black Tower might do something unfavorable to Xia Meng in order to maintain the existing delicate balance.

Zhou Qi was overwhelmed with thoughts for a moment.

Li Zhou calmly asked back, "Are you talking about the headquarters?"

Zhou Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly.

Indeed, with Li Zhou's level, the headquarters is probably keeping a close eye on him all the time.

It is not the turn of the top management of Beijing Tower to intervene, and the headquarters will find ways to stop them.

Li Zhou smiled calmly and said in an extremely calm tone, "If they want to die, they can give it a try."

Li Zhou: "The worst that can happen is that no one will live."

Zhou Qi opened his eyes wide.

For a moment, he was shocked by the calm madness in Li Zhou.

These two light sentences clearly made people feel the murderous intent coming towards them.

It seemed that if anyone dared to attack Xia Meng, he would turn the Black Tower upside down and cause rivers of blood to flow.

He... could actually say such words so calmly.

An expression of admiration gradually appeared on Zhou Qi's solemn face.

He sighed, "I know."

He will try his best to convey Li Zhou's intentions to his superiors.

…

At that time, Xia Meng had no idea what was happening in Zhou Qi's office upstairs.

After processing the information in the system, she stood up and walked out.

Ou Xu felt that she was taking it too lightly, and was so anxious that he wanted to grab Xia Meng's shoulders and shake them violently: "Really! This matter can be a big deal or a small one! Don't take it lightly!"

Xia Meng felt dizzy from his shaking and quickly raised her hand to stop him.

Xia Meng: "I don't take it seriously."

Ou Xu: "Then why are you so calm?"

Xia Meng shrugged: "I just know that when it comes to love, if you want to avoid being obstructed, you just need to do a little bit."

Ou Xu: "Which point?"

Xia Meng said calmly: "Have the right to speak."

As long as they have the right to speak, the Black Tower will naturally have no way to deal with them.

Xia Meng is confident in her right to speak.

On the one hand, it was because Li Zhou was strong enough, and on the other hand, it was because of herself.

She believed that she was strong enough.

Xia Meng has always been a confident person.

People who don't know her might think she is blindly confident.

But her friends all know that she is very good at recognizing her strengths and building advantages for herself.

Don't be fooled by her usual carefree appearance, as if she doesn't care about anything.

Actually, a monkey spirit.

Xia Meng put her hands in her pockets, pushed open the office door and walked out.

Ou Xu followed her happily with a confused look on his face.

Ou Xu: "Sister, can you explain it again? You're talking too much, I don't understand!"

Is this the difference in IQ between people?

Xia Meng sighed, took two steps, and raised her chin towards the quarantine area not far away: "Here."

Nowadays, strange diseases are spreading all over the world.

I don’t know how many sentries have been implicated.

Judging from the current situation, not to mention the sentinels, even ordinary humans will be doomed.

Xia Meng didn't know what the black towers abroad were like.

But looking at the current situation of the Beijing Tower, there are only a few cases where people have been successfully brought back from their distorted mental images.

And it's all related to her.

If Heita had any common sense, he would know that he shouldn't offend her.

Xia Meng gave a brief explanation.

Ou Xu was stunned for a long time, turning her words over in his mind twice, and finally understood.

He slapped his thigh with excitement.

Ou Xu: "That's true!"

Ou Xu: "Don't say you're offended. If it were me, I would have to worship you!"

Xia Meng curled her lips and chuckled.

Xia Meng: "Really? Even you know it, how could they not understand it?"

Ou Xu: "That's it... Hey? What do you mean even me???"

…

After finally getting rid of Ou Xu, Xia Meng went to the inpatient department to make rounds.

She didn't have much work to do today.

Ever since Ning Yi "attacked" her, Director Bai temporarily stopped her work in the counseling department.

So she is very free at the moment.

After a round of ward rounds, the nurse at the nurses' station suddenly stood up and said, "Doctor Xia, someone at the front desk wants to see you."

Xia Meng was writing medical records with her head down. When she heard the voice, she asked without looking up, "Who is it?"

The nurse said, "It's a young couple. The husband's surname is Lu. They said you asked them to come."

land……?

Xia Meng immediately knew who it was.

It should be Lu Yuting and Lin Fei.

She guessed that Lin Fei would come, but she didn't expect that Lu Yuting would also come.

Xia Meng nodded and said, "Please help me book a counseling room. I'll go there now."

Young nurse: "Okay."

Xia Meng didn't delay too long.

After finishing writing the medical records after the ward rounds, she handed over the work to the head nurse, Sister Liang.

Then she went to the counseling department.

When she arrived at the door of the counseling department, she saw a man and a woman sitting in the first row of the waiting area.

The man was dressed in a suit and tie, very elegant and graceful.

In comparison, the woman looked much more haggard, and she simply wore a thin coat over her daily clothes.

She was hugging herself with her arms, looking extremely insecure.

Xia Meng recognized them at a glance. It was indeed Lu Yuting and Lin Fei.

They look exactly as they do in the mental picture.

The two of them sat on a chair apart.

Lu Yuting is on the phone.

Xia Meng stood at the corner, looking at him with gentle eyes, and spoke on the phone in a gentle tone: "...Well, I'm accompanying her to see the doctor."

"I don't know what made her so crazy that she insisted on coming here. I had no choice but to accompany her."

"It's okay, probably just my depression getting worse. Just ask the psychiatrist to prescribe some medicine."

"Don't worry, I'll come find you after I get the medicine."

"Yeah, I love you too."

Xia Meng watched quietly, her gaze shifting from him to Lin Fei.

Her eyes were unfocused, as if she had no idea what the people around her were saying.

I don't even know where I am.

At this moment, Xia Meng finally understood why Lin Fei was so regretful.

Yes, the seal only bound their bodies.

It cannot bind their hearts.

And once one of them's heart flies away.

The other person's body and mind will collapse together.

At this point, the risks for the Sentinels are even greater.

Once a sentinel is imprinted, it means that he will never be able to leave the imprint guide again in his life.

Lu Yuting probably knew this for sure, so he didn't even bother to pretend.

Xia Meng sighed softly and finally walked towards them.

Xia Meng: "Lu Yuting?"

Lu Yuting looked up at the sound, then hung up the phone and stood up. He smiled at her gently and politely, and extended his hand: "Hello, are you Doctor Xia Mengxia?"

Xia Meng raised her hand and shook hands with him, then withdrew immediately.

Xia Meng's attention was all on Lin Fei.

She noticed that when she called out Lu Yuting's name, Lin Fei's body trembled uncontrollably.

Xia Meng: "Lin Fei?"

Lin Fei raised his head when he heard the voice, and looked straight in Xia Meng's direction with unfocused eyes, but not at Xia Meng's face.

As if he was deliberately avoiding my gaze.

He deliberately didn't look at Xia Meng's face.

Xia Meng's heart skipped a beat.

There's something wrong with her look...

Could it be that Fregley's delusion had worsened?

Lu Yuting didn't even look at Lin Fei, but maintained his elegant appearance and politely expressed that he had taken a day off today and brought his wife to see the doctor.

As soon as he hung up the phone, he immediately put on the mask of a loving husband.

His acting is even smoother than that of the best actor.

As he spoke, Lu Yuting suddenly smiled meaningfully and said, "You are much younger than I thought."

Xia Meng blinked.

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that he seemed to be making witty remarks in his words.

Saying she's young... isn't that questioning her abilities?

Xia Meng smiled calmly and stabbed back subtly, "You are exactly as I imagined."

Lu Yuting raised his eyebrows subconsciously.

He: “Do you know me?”

Xia Meng nodded: "I learned a little from your wife."

Lu Yuting was silent for a moment.

Then he laughed and asked tentatively, "I wonder what she told you about me?"

Xia Meng observed all his reactions with great interest, then smiled with satisfaction, blinked and pretended to be stupid: "What else can I say? Of course, I say that you are young and promising, and have a successful career."

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for him to continue. She turned to Lin Fei and said, "Hello, Ms. Lin Fei, we can go into the counseling room now. Please follow me."

"The counseling room?" Lu Yuting quickly reached out and held Lin Fei's arm, and said to Xia Meng, "Doctor Xia, is there something wrong? I heard that you are a psychiatrist. Why do you want to go to the counseling room?"

He said politely, "You may not know this, but I am also a guide. I have already imprinted with my wife. You cannot guide her."

Common sense says this is true.

After being imprinted by a Guide, the Sentinel's match rate with other Guides will drop below 50%.

This is common sense among whistles.

Unfortunately, Xia Meng herself is beyond common sense.

She put her hands in her pockets slowly and smiled, "Others really can't do it, but I am an exception."

Lu Yuting gradually disappeared from the smile at the corners of his lips.

He looked at Xia Meng's face, wondering whether she was lying to him or was serious.

If she could really enter Lin Fei's mental picture...

No, that's absolutely not possible!

He quickly raised his hand and grabbed Lin Fei's arm, then said to Xia Meng, "Doctor Xia, you may have made a mistake. We are not here for counseling today. If my wife needs counseling, I can do it. I just want to find a psychiatrist to prescribe some antidepressants for my wife, that's all."

Xia Meng didn't budge. She smiled and asked, "Since she's registered with me, shouldn't I be the one to decide what her illness is and how to formulate the specific treatment plan?"

She knew what Lu Yuting was afraid of.

He was afraid that the confusion in Lin Fei's mental picture would be discovered by others.

Lu Yuting put away the smile on his face and said, "You knew the sentry had been marked, but you still wanted to force her to vent? Do you know what you are doing? Do you want to kill my wife?"

Xia Meng ignored him and smiled at Lin Fei, "Ms. Lin, please follow me."

As a result, Lu Yuting did not let go.

He frowned and said, "Okay, the treatment plan is the attending physician's right. But as her husband, I have the right to change a doctor for my wife, right?"

He said he walked up to the front desk of the guide center and said, "Get me a new doctor, another psychiatrist, anyone."

The girl at the front desk stood up and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Dr. Xia is the only one seeing patients in the psychiatric department right now."

Lu Yuting turned around in disbelief.

Such a large guide center, but only one psychiatrist? Who are they kidding?

Lu Yuting's face darkened. He felt that the front desk and Xia Meng were colluding to fool him.

He said, “Then we won’t see patients anymore.”

As he said that, he was about to grab Lin Fei's arm: "Let's go."

Lin Fei seemed to resist him and subconsciously hid behind Xia Meng.

Xia Meng knew that Lin Fei was asking her for help.

She took a half step forward, stood in front of Lin Fei, and said to Lu Yuting: "Mr. Lu, you can't take her away now."

Lin Fei's refusal and Xia Meng's toughness made Lu Yuting's face turn pale and blue.

As if to save face, he frowned and said seriously, "Your guide center is outrageous, isn't it? Do you think this place is yours? Can't we leave if we want? Where is your person in charge? Call him out!"

Xia Meng remained calm from beginning to end.

She glanced at the girl at the front desk and said, "Go ask Director Bai to come over."

A few minutes later, Bai Yizu arrived.

He walked over with a peacemaker's smile on his face, his hands behind his back, and whispered to the girl at the front desk, "What's going on?"

The girl at the front desk quickly leaned over and told him everything that had happened.

As Director Bai listened, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Here, Xia Meng and Lu Yuting were still in a stalemate.

As soon as Lu Yuting saw Director Bai approaching, he raised his chin in a haughty manner towards Xia Meng and immediately complained, "Director, right? This doctor under you forced counseling on my wife even though he knew she had been imprinted. You need to give me an explanation, right? Is this how you train your staff at the Guidance Center? Can doctors go against the wishes of a patient's family and completely disregard the patient's life or death?"

He is indeed a great lawyer.

When it comes to accusing someone of a crime, he can do it effortlessly and without stopping.

Fortunately, Director Bai is not someone who can be led astray by a few words.

Director Bai has encountered many ups and downs in this position.

He first said in a gentle tone that he would understand the situation clearly and give them a reasonable explanation.

Then, he looked at Xia Meng: "Tell me, what's going on? Why are you stopping the patient's family from leaving?"

Xia Meng said calmly: "Because the patient's condition is not normal."

Director Bai frowned slightly: "But whether to accept treatment is the patient's own freedom."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuting raised his chin arrogantly.

He interrupted, "Your Doctor Xia is an intern who just graduated from school, right? He's so reckless."

Xia Meng didn't even look at him, but looked at Director Bai and said calmly: "Director, I detained her because of the special provisions of Article 176 of the Guide Center's work rules."

Director Bai was stunned, obviously not expecting Xia Meng to suddenly start talking about the law.

He: “Ah…? Article 176?”

Xia Meng nodded. "Article 176 stipulates that when a doctor has reason and evidence to believe that a patient poses a certain social hazard, he or she has the right to override the wishes of the patient and their family and impose control measures on the patient by forcibly admitting the patient to the hospital."

Director Bai glanced at Lin Fei and asked in surprise: "How can you be sure——"

Xia Meng sighed: "Director, did you just start work on Monday and haven't had time to confirm your email yet?"

Director Bai: "...Yes."

Xia Meng: "I emailed you yesterday. At 9 p.m. on Saturday night, Li Zhou and I encountered a unique situation on our way home, and were drawn into the mental image of this Ms. Lin Fei. I've written down all the specific details in the report. Would you like to take a look now?"

Director Bai: “…”

Lu Yuting: “…”

Director Bai opened his work phone and checked his email on the spot.

Sure enough, Xia Meng sent him an email yesterday afternoon.

The time when an email is sent cannot be faked.

Director Bai opened the email and read it carefully.

Only then did he finally and slowly put away the peacemaker smile on his face.

The matter of "strange disease" is still a secret kept within the Black Tower.

All those involved were placed under gag orders.

Therefore, the outside world does not know any news.

Lu Yuting naturally didn't know about it either.

He refuted it bluntly: "Are you kidding me? Can you enter her mental picture? If you lie, you should find a more reasonable reason, okay?"

Xia Meng didn't even bother to look at him, but looked straight at Director Bai: "What do you think?"

Director Bai was silent for a moment, then nodded at her and said seriously, "Then you will be responsible for this patient. Temporarily place him in isolation area No. 2, and family visits are not allowed."

The quarantine zone is now divided into two.

The people who were previously brought out of the spiritual image by Xia Meng and others are currently settled in Area 2 to recuperate.

As for those who were still unconscious, they were all arranged in Area 1.

Director Bai stood on Xia Meng's side without hesitation.

Lu Yuting was stunned. He couldn't believe that the person in charge of the guide center was also partial to Xia Meng.

"Director? What do you mean!?"

Xia Meng ignored him and turned around to see Lin Fei pulling at her sleeve.

Xia Meng raised her hand and placed it on the back of her hand, gently soothing her: "It's okay, I will help you. Come with me, okay?"

Lin Fei looked up at her and nodded hesitantly.

So Xia Meng took Lin Fei directly to the counseling room that had been booked in advance.

Lu Yuting's stern voice of questioning continued to be heard from behind.

The barrister was probably used to being in court, so he questioned with great authority.

Xia Meng silently lit a candle for Director Bai in her heart.

Walter White! Hang in there!

…

The two entered the counseling room.

The two sat opposite each other.

Xia Meng didn't waste any time and started to guide Lin Fei directly.

With previous experience, Xia Meng entered more smoothly this time.

The mental power spread and Xia Meng opened her eyes.

She appeared at the entrance of Chaoyang Village again.

The sky was gloomy, thick fog was everywhere, and a cold wind was blowing.

The surrounding sea of ​​sunflowers sways in the wind.

The surroundings looked much more depressing than the last time Xia Meng left.

But fortunately, there were no weird sunflowers with human faces, nor were there any party or church scenes.

There were footsteps behind me.

Xia Meng turned around and saw Lin Fei walking towards her with tears on her face.

A gust of wind blew from behind Lin Fei.

It blew from Lin Fei to Xia Meng.

The moment the breeze blew on her face, Xia Meng heard a suppressed cry for help.

She raised her eyes and looked at Lin Fei with tears in her eyes, and tears fell silently from her eyes.

Help……

Help……

Xia Meng asked: "How do you want me to help you?"

Lin Fei closed her eyes and another string of tears fell.

When she opened her eyes again, she said resolutely: "Even if it means death, I want to leave him."

Xia Meng sighed softly.

It seems that her marriage with Lu Yuting has made her extremely disgusted.

However, punishing him with death is too cruel.

This is completely contrary to Xia Meng's values.

She has thousands of reasons to live on.

If you were to rank the words in her dictionary, death would definitely be the last one.

There is always hope in life.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why she became a psychiatrist.

She didn't say much.

She knew that Lin Fei's mental state was not stable at the moment.

Xia Meng released her mental power and carefully re-sorted out Lin Fei's mental picture.

She didn't leave until the sun was shining again.

In the counseling room, both of them opened their eyes at the same time.

Xia Meng observed Lin Fei's expression.

After receiving counseling, Lin Fei seemed much calmer and more sober.

The uncontrollable trembling in my hands gradually stopped.

"Let's try divorce." Xia Meng suddenly said.

Lin Fei stared at her blankly: "...Just a divorce, what's the point? He and I are already engraved-"

Halfway through her speech, she lowered her eyes to look at their still clasped hands.

Xia Meng laughed heartily: "So what if it's engraved? Don't I still have me?"

The reason why all the Sentinels were bound by the Mark was simply because after being marked they could no longer accept guidance from other* guides.

You can only submit to the engraved guide throughout your life.

Lin Fei once thought so too.

So she was extremely desperate.

She watched in despair as Lu Yuting's true colors gradually revealed after their marriage, and watched him step by step trample her under his feet.

Because of the imprint, she could only swallow her anger and be humble again and again.

She actually didn't want to die.

As far as she could remember, her mother had been in poor health and had been on the verge of death countless times.

Her mother's strength has always influenced her outlook on life.

If she hadn't been unable to hold on any longer...

Xia Meng patted the back of her hand comfortingly.

"It doesn't matter. From now on, I will give you freedom."
