Chapter 129 I'll come find you when you count to one hundred
There must be something wrong with them.
Ji Ying must die.
Wen Lingxue clenched her fingers tightly, suppressing her surging emotions.
...
Inside a mental health clinic.
Ji Ying lay on the examination chair and took a deep breath.
Dr. Meng said gently, "Ms. Ji, although you have signed the relevant confirmation documents, I still need to remind you again. Hypnotherapy explores your subconscious deeply, but the process may have serious side effects. Are you sure you want to continue?"
Ji Ying nodded.
"Okay, then please relax with me..."
Ji Ying slowly closed her eyes, and soon fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
She gripped the handrail tightly, her body trembling, and her breathing gradually became rapid and difficult.
In the darkness of her consciousness, the violent shaking, accompanied by the woman's screams, pierced her nerves.
Blurry images flashed back repeatedly, a blinding red light suddenly appeared, followed by a tearing headache and an almost suffocating sense of oppression.
"no……"
Ji Ying suddenly opened her eyes, a wave of intense dizziness and nausea washing over her. She slid off the treatment chair and knelt on the ground, vomiting violently.
Once she calmed down, Dr. Meng helped her back into the treatment chair.
He then beckoned Xiao Xia, who was waiting outside, to come in.
Seeing her almost completely exhausted, Xiao Xia felt extremely distressed and quickly gave her some water.
"What was the last thing you heard, saw, or felt when you lost consciousness?" Dr. Meng asked.
Ji Ying dared not recall it; the thought made her brain feel like it was about to explode, and she shook her head vigorously.
"No, there's nothing there."
Dr. Meng said with some regret, "We were just trying to access your core memories, but the emotional intensity they contained exceeded the limits of your current psychological defense system. Therefore, I suggest pausing the hypnotherapy. We can start with..."
Before Dr. Meng could finish speaking, Ji Ying waved her hand.
"Forgetting might be a good thing. I'm not looking for it anymore, not even my memories or my parents."
This time, Xiao Xia wholeheartedly agreed.
In fact, Ji Ying has managed all these years without them.
Without the warmth of a home, she can warm herself up; there's no need to make herself suffer so much.
After resting for a while, Ji Ying left the psychological clinic with Xiao Xia's help.
Sitting in the passenger seat, the headache and palpitations from the hypnosis had not yet subsided, so she leaned back and closed her eyes to rest.
"Don't go to the company today. Go back and rest for a couple of days."
Xiao Xia started the car as she spoke.
"It's okay, I'll be fine after a nap."
Ji Ying adjusted her posture and curled up.
Just as the car passed an intersection, a brown sedan suddenly cut in from the side, and Xiao Xia quickly swerved to change lanes.
Ji Ying opened her eyes alertly and looked at the brown sedan.
"Can we shake him off?" Ji Ying asked.
Xiao Xia gripped the steering wheel tightly. "There are a lot of cars on the road, it's a bit difficult."
Ji Ying felt a little regretful. She had taken Xiao Xia's car when she went out today because she was going to have treatment.
"No matter what, don't leave the city."
Ji Ying instinctively grabbed the roof railing, her pale face breaking out in a cold sweat again. She took out her phone and called the police.
However, the car followed them closely, repeatedly squeezing their driving space, forcing Xiao Xia's car onto the elevated road.
“No, this won’t do,” Xiao Xia said, her hands trembling as she gripped the steering wheel. “If we go any further, we’ll be on the airport expressway.”
No sooner had they finished speaking than the car that had blocked them suddenly accelerated and rear-ended them from behind.
Xiao Xia stepped on the gas and successfully widened the distance between himself and his opponent.
But the car also drove onto the airport expressway.
Ji Ying stared intently at the rearview mirror with a tense expression as the car, like a ghost, pressed close behind her again.
What exactly does he want to do?
Just then, a minivan suddenly rushed out from the adjacent ramp.
Xiao Xia couldn't dodge in time, and the huge impact caused their car to spin out of control instantly, and the whole world shook wildly in a chaotic upheaval.
Amidst the violent tremors, fragments of memory once again exploded and surged in Ji Ying's mind like glass.
She lost consciousness in just two seconds, and everything came to an abrupt end.
Their car rolled over and crashed onto the roadside, plunging into dead silence.
"Brother Yi, it's done." The man in the car said excitedly after checking it.
"Get out of here quickly, don't let anyone find you, and don't implicate me."
"yes."
The two cars then sped away from the scene and disappeared without a trace.
Not far away, the Hongqi L5 steadily drove towards the airport.
The driver noticed a vehicle overturned on the side of the road ahead, its undercarriage facing upwards, its hazard lights still flashing rapidly.
He slowed down slightly and asked, "There seems to be a car accident up ahead. Do you need help?"
Xue Qin raised his wrist, about to check the time before making a decision, when he heard Liang Yizhi in the back seat speak in a deep voice, "Stop."
The car was parked in the emergency lane.
Xue Qin was the first to jump out of the car and rushed toward the overturned vehicle.
Upon seeing the situation inside the car, his pupils constricted sharply. He immediately bent down and reached into the deformed carriage, pulling out Xiao Xia, who was still conscious.
"Boss, Ji Ying is in the passenger seat," he called out urgently.
Liang Yizhi frowned and was about to step forward, but the driver beat him to it, deftly prying open the dented car door with his bare hands and carefully rescuing the unconscious Ji Ying, placing her gently on the side of the road.
"He's still breathing, but he suffered a head injury, so the situation is hard to say," the driver said after checking him.
Although Xiao Xia was trembling uncontrollably, she still staggered and crawled toward Ji Ying.
“Yingying, Yingying…”
She patted Ji Ying's face, but Ji Ying did not respond.
If Ji Ying hadn't gone to the mental health clinic, her condition probably wouldn't be this bad.
She grabbed Liang Yizhi's trouser leg, pleading, "Please save her, save her."
Liang Yizhi stared at the person on the ground, not speaking immediately.
Xue Qin, standing nearby, said very rationally, "Boss, the ambulance is on its way, and our flight is about to take off. We only arranged a time and place with that lady, but she doesn't have a phone number. What if we miss it..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xia became anxious, "It takes more than ten minutes for an ambulance to arrive. Wouldn't it be faster to use your car?"
Liang Yizhi condescended to half-squat down and reached out to feel Ji Ying's pulse.
At this moment, Ji Ying was being bombarded by fragments of memory and was falling continuously when suddenly someone grabbed her wrist, she stopped falling, and the world suddenly became bright.
"Count to one hundred, and I'll come find you."
The voice was very familiar, but it didn't match any of the faces in my mind.
Ji Ying tried her best to see the other person's face clearly, but all she could see was the hand that was tightly gripping hers and a clean, crisp white shirt cuff.
Just then, the hand suddenly let go.
After Liang Yizhi finished taking Ji Ying's pulse, he stood up.
Ji Ying suddenly struggled out of her illusion and returned to reality, seeing clearly that the person in front of her was him.
With all her might, she raised her limp wrist, trying to grab his departing hand, and cried out, "Guan Guan!"
