After taking a shower, Lin Yue lay on the clean and soft bed, buried her head in the blanket, and rolled around several times. She was planning how to take advantage of Song Yunzheng tonight. As she thought about it, her cheeks inexplicably turned red.
Perhaps due to exhaustion these past few days, the person on the bed was already asleep when Song Yunzheng came out of the bathroom.
She remained in the same unchanging posture, burying herself under the covers, curled up into a small ball, which evoked pity in people.
Song Yunzheng bent down and pulled her out of bed, whispering in her ear, "Sleep well, and we'll go home tomorrow when you wake up."
"I don't want to go home... I want to stay here with you. It's too lonely living alone at home..." The sleeping person mumbled their innermost thoughts as if in a daze. These words were both an answer and a statement of attitude.
Song Yunzheng frowned slightly, stared at her for a while, then resolutely turned around and walked out of the bedroom.
The next day, Lin Yue slowly woke up under the strong light. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, sat up slowly, and subconsciously looked at her chest, which was fair, smooth and without a single blemish.
She lifted the blanket again and touched the sheets; they were cold, and the pillows showed no signs of sagging.
Last night before going to sleep, she kept thinking about how to strip Song Yunzheng naked, and then... she fell asleep! Not only did she not get to take advantage of him, she also let him go to sleep in another room!
What a disgrace!!
Zhuang Yucheng arrived exceptionally early today. As soon as he entered the room, he noticed a petite figure in the living room. Without even seeing her face, he could guess who it was.
Who else but that guy's most cherished darling could have the honor of stepping into this villa?
"Hi, Mrs. Song, good morning. I'm Zhuang Yucheng, Yunzheng's friend and colleague." He greeted her warmly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue immediately stood up, forced a smile, and nodded slightly, "Hello, hello."
The observant man immediately noticed the forced smile behind hers.
He turned to look at the second floor, a half-smile playing on his lips, and asked softly, "Where's your husband? Didn't he come down to keep you company?"
The mere mention of him made Lin Yue furious. She sat down again, head bowed, silent, her fingers constantly fidgeting with the hem of her clothes.
"You two... had a fight?"
Hearing his question, Lin Yue paused slightly, then shook her head, "No..."
She found it hard to explain why she had offered herself up only to be rejected, and now she could only sulk here in silence.
Zhuang Yucheng adjusted his glasses and said slowly, "You must know something about his situation, otherwise you wouldn't have come here."
Lin Yue looked up, a hint of confusion in her eyes. "Who are you?"
"I am a psychologist, assisting Dr. Kim in providing him with psychological counseling and treatment."
"Is his condition serious?" She was wringing the clothes in her hands until they were almost tangled up like dried plums.
Zhuang Yucheng nodded. "He has a knot in his heart that he can't untie, and it's getting tighter and tighter. Someone once told him about cause and effect, and that phrase is like a suggestion that's deeply planted in his mind. The more time he spends with you, the more afraid he becomes. He will blame himself for any harm you suffer."
Lin Yue nervously clutched the hem of her clothes. "Can I help?"
"You are the key." Zhuang Yucheng's voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable firmness.
What should I do?
"Help him face his fears, be more patient with him, be gentle with him as much as possible, and don't hold a grudge against him like you are now."
Feeling a little embarrassed by having her thoughts so bluntly exposed, Lin Yue chuckled awkwardly and nodded, "I'll be careful."
Zhuang Yucheng smiled slightly, slowly stood up, and after taking two steps, he suddenly turned around. "Oh, right, he's going through a special period right now, so you have to be more understanding of him. Also... don't refuse him in matters of the heart."
As expected of a doctor, he speaks without any subtlety or beating around the bush.
Lin Yue's eyes twitched after hearing this, "..."
"Even if you don't want to at this time, you must never refuse his request."
"..."
"A small drink is fine when necessary; a slightly tipsy state is perfect..."
"Dr. Zhuang!" Lin Yue quickly interrupted him.
"What's wrong?" Zhuang Yucheng asked calmly.
"The one who didn't want to... was him." Lin Yue forced out these words with a dark expression.
Now it was Zhuang Yucheng's turn to be speechless. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. He raised his hand to adjust his glasses and coughed twice. "Well... this will require more of your patience."
"You've come at the right time. Take her back later." A cool, deep voice rang out from the second-floor stairwell.
Lin Yue immediately stood up and looked at the man on the second floor with a resentful expression.
His probing gaze lingered on the couple; at a time like this, it was inappropriate for him, the third wheel, to be there.
Zhuang Yucheng glanced at his watch, feigning urgency. "Yunzheng, I'm sorry, I have something urgent to attend to and have to go now. I'll come see you again in a couple of days."
He left in a hurry before he could finish speaking, giving no one else a chance to speak.
The roar of engines outside gradually faded into the distance.
Dr. Zhuang's words kept echoing in my mind: be patient, be gentle...
Lin Yue took a deep breath, smiled brightly, moved to the man's side, gently took his arm, and said sweetly, "Honey, I want to eat steamed bamboo shoot fish for lunch."
Song Yunzheng glanced at her thin body, and he couldn't bring himself to tell her to go back. He decided to let her rest for a couple of days first.
