Dr. Wang sat down on the small sofa next to him, took a candy from the glass candy jar on the coffee table, unwrapped it, and put it in his mouth.
“Actually, you don’t need to worry about him waking up,” Dr. Wang said. “As long as he falls asleep when he has an attack, he will sleep for a long time and quickly enter a deep sleep. At this time, even thunder won’t wake him up.”
Su Jin: "A relapse? What illness does she have?"
"Mental illness. I didn't want to talk about it before, but I've seen what he's been doing these past few days, and I hope you can spend more time with him."
“I used to take him to see psychologists. For a while, his psychological problems improved a bit, but recently, probably since his engagement to He Ru, his whole demeanor has become very strange again.”
Dr. Wang chewed the candy in his mouth and sighed heavily. "He has too many worries, and he is also troubled by his background. I can see that He Ru is just a pretense. He just wants to be with you. Only you can stabilize his condition."
Knowing all this, Su Jin couldn't just let it go.
We can't just let Zheng Lin fend for himself.
Su Jin lowered her eyes, thought for a while, and said, "I don't know what he's thinking. If he needs me, I'll stay with him when he has an attack. However, who he wants to marry is none of my business."
Wang Jiache: "......"
He unwrapped another candy and popped it into his mouth.
Dr. Wang doesn't like to meddle in other people's love lives. He just felt that Zheng Lin was mentally unhealthy, practically a patient. But whether Zheng Shao can ultimately be with his lover is not something a doctor like him can control.
"I'm going to check on another patient." Wang Jiache grabbed another handful of candy and put it in his pocket before getting up to leave.
......
Su Jin still booked a plane ticket that night to fly back to the film set to prepare for filming the next day.
When Zheng Lin heard that she was leaving, he didn't say anything on the surface, but his behavior was very strange.
He scooped all the fish out of the fish tank and threw them into the trash can, then went into his study.
More than a dozen small fish were splashing around in the trash can. Su Jin quickly picked them out one by one and put them back into the fish tank.
"They're just obsessed with water," Su Jin muttered. "They throw people who aren't in the water into it. They even scoop out fish that are perfectly fine in the water. What kind of strange mental illness is this?"
She poked at the little fish that was turned belly up in the fish tank with her finger, and the little fish immediately flipped over and swam in the water.
He even glanced back at Su Jin's fingers.
Su Jin smiled at the fish tank.
Zheng Lin stood by the wall at the corner, silently watching Su Jin's actions.
He couldn't hear what she was saying, but he could see her mouth moving as if she were talking to herself. However, seeing how happy she was, he couldn't help but smile as well.
Su Jin sprinkled some fish food into the tank, then picked it up and tried to put it on the cabinet.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Zheng Lin right behind her. Her hand trembled, and the water in the fish tank shook violently. Zheng Lin caught her hand, and together they stabilized the fish tank.
It was a close call. Su Jin's mouth was slightly open as she looked up at Zheng Lin, who took the fish tank and placed it on the cabinet.
"You save people, fine, but you even save fish," Zheng Lin said coldly. "Does that mean you'll care whoever I hurt?"
"I just don't like death."
Su Jin tilted her head slightly to look at him: "I'm not a living Buddha. If you hurt someone when I wasn't looking, I wouldn't care."
“I don’t like death…” Zheng Lin repeated Su Jin’s words, finding it quite amusing. He covered his mouth, his eyes wide with laughter: “Really, it’s quite laughable.”
"You don't like death. Then why did you abort our child? Wasn't that a life?" He pointed at the fish tank, indignantly saying, "You don't even want to see the fish die, yet you heartlessly killed our child, you..."
He frowned, looking utterly puzzled, and slowly shook his head: "I know you won't tell. Never mind, aren't you in a hurry to film? I'll take you."
Su Jin was stunned.
He changed his expression so quickly; in just over ten seconds, she witnessed several shifts in his emotions.
Honestly, it's a little scary.
Because all her attention was on him, Su Jin didn't pay much attention when he mentioned the sensitive word "child" again.
Su Jin's heart softened. She turned around, poured a glass of water, and held it to his lips: "Here, have some water."
She hoped that a sip of water would calm him down.
Zheng Lin obediently took a sip of water, but his eyes remained fixed on Su Jin.
As soon as he put down his cup, he hurriedly asked, "Let me take you home, wait for me."
While he was away, Su Jin quickly called Dr. Wang to ask how to deal with the situation.
Dr. Wang gave her a long silence.
Half a minute later, Dr. Wang said, "Just go along with him. Psychology isn't my specialty. But I guess if you go along with him, he shouldn't get easily agitated. Give it a try."
"Do I mean, he doesn't need to take medication?"
“He took the medication, but it didn’t help much. Now the medication is starting to lose its effectiveness. For this kind of mental illness, medication can only provide temporary relief; it’s very important to resolve the underlying issues. That’s how it usually is, I see on TV.”
So Su Jinzhen decided to give it a try and, as Zheng Lin had suggested, asked him to take her to the airport.
As it turned out, after she boarded the plane, she discovered that he had also bought a ticket for the same flight and was sitting to her left.
Su Jin hadn't expected that his idea of "giving" would be in this way.
And then, to make matters worse, after she got off the plane, he escorted her all the way to her hotel.
At this moment, Su Jin thought he had to go back, so she waved goodbye to him.
Zheng Lin strode over to the front desk, took out his ID card, and said, "Someone booked a room for me. I'm here to pick up the room key."
The room has been booked.
Upon hearing this news, Su Jin suddenly wondered whether his mental illness was real or not.
She felt that she had been in his shoes all day, and whether his mental state was normal was no longer her concern; she was more concerned about her own mental state.
She's a little confused now, wondering how likely it is that Zheng Lin will play her.
Su Jin approached the front desk and asked Zheng Lin, "You've already checked in?"
Zheng Lin took the room key and ID card, then turned to Su Jin and explained, "I was also coming here on a business trip. I was originally scheduled to arrive in a few days. But since I'm already here, I'll just stay here for now."
The reason is reasonable, and it's also a coincidence.
But Su Jin just didn't quite believe it.
"Why don't you just say it directly? You just want to stay here." Su Jin said insincerely, "Actually, I have no objection if you just say it directly, as long as you don't interfere with my work, everything is negotiable."
"You're overthinking it. Our Zheng Group is bidding for a piece of land in a few days. You can check it out," Zheng Lin said. "It seems your group is also participating. Didn't you know?"
Su Jin: "......" How could I have known!
These were all done by the president and vice presidents. She, as the chairman, had nothing to do on a daily basis and was unaware of the major moves in her group.
In fact, Assistant Wang had told her that she would also forget about these important matters.
She had absolutely no recollection of land auctions.
