Chapter 80 Chapter 80 "Is it hot? Why are you sweating so much...
On the third day after Shen Xingchuan left, Yao Yingxia received an appraisal report from Nie Yuan, which was issued by the Psychiatry Department of Chuanhe Hospital.
The above records in detail the process and results of Shen Xingchuan's mental evaluation.
The first is a clinical interview.
According to the patient, he initially dreamed every night that his wife was cheating on him with different men, which lasted for about seven days. The patient suffered from insomnia for three consecutive days and was injected with tranquilizers. After he recovered his sleep, he began to have nightmares about killing his wife, which lasted for about another ten days.
After meeting his wife who lived in another city, his symptoms of insomnia, headaches, and angina pectoris were significantly alleviated, and he no longer had nightmares after falling asleep. However, when facing his wife, he would uncontrollably engage in harmful behavior and could not recall the details of the incident afterwards.
The second item is a physical examination.
Blood tests showed nothing unusual, ruling out hallucinations and delusions caused by alcohol or drug abuse. A brain CT scan showed nothing unusual, ruling out abnormalities caused by organic lesions like brain tumors and brain damage.
Finally, there is a psychological assessment test.
Probably to make the results as accurate as possible, Shen Xingchuan took a huge number of tests. The results showed that except for the impact of symptoms such as auditory and visual hallucinations, his tests in other aspects looked very normal.
Yao Yingxia finally turned to the conclusion page.
The above shows that although Shen Xingchuan has typical symptoms of schizophrenia, there is no significant decline in his daily work, interpersonal relationships, logical thinking, reaction ability, language ability, etc., thus ruling out the possibility of schizophrenia.
The final conclusion was more inclined to the patient suffering from jealous delusional disorder, a mental illness characterized by persistent delusions of infidelity, which may be accompanied by hallucinations or aggressive tendencies. Patients are usually relatively normal in other aspects.
Yao Yingxia actually wanted to laugh after reading it. What a delusional disorder, but what he "delusional" about was something that actually happened in real life. Does that prove that Shen Xingchuan doesn't have any mental illness at all?
He was just stimulated and had a huge psychological trauma. Although he had lost his memory of that period, his paranoid possessiveness made him overwhelmed with jealousy and anxiety. Therefore, under the stimulation of certain specific scenes, he would uncontrollably want to retaliate against her.
For example, when sleeping with her.
Is this what you call asking for trouble? Yao Yingxia finally laughed out loud.
Ten minutes later, Nie Yuan sent two more messages: "Mr. Shen has started taking his medication on time and is receiving psychological counseling."
"The doctor's advice is that, if your time permits, you can spend more time with Mr. Shen and give him more understanding and comfort. This will help alleviate his symptoms, and a complete recovery is not impossible."
Yao Yingxia was almost certain that the latter sentence was uttered at the instruction of Shen Xingchuan.
In the evening, she received a question from Nie Yuan on her own behalf: "Ms. Yao, did you really not do anything to provoke Mr. Shen?"
He has followed Shen Xingchuan for six years, almost day and night. Nie Yuan knows very well that his boss is extremely stable at heart and is good at relieving his negative emotions. How could such a powerful and somewhat terrifying man suddenly develop a mental disorder?
After much thought, Nie Yuan still felt that the boss had received some stimulation from the outside world, and this stimulation was most likely from Miss Yao.
Unfortunately, after he asked this somewhat over-the-top question, he didn't get any response. But this also explained a lot of things, for example, she didn't deny it, which was almost equivalent to acquiescence.
Nie Yuan thought about it for a whole night, and finally worked with Pan Yue to retrieve the elevator surveillance footage in the community before his boss was hospitalized, and sure enough, they made a surprising discovery.
He saw a man carrying Miss Yao home in an intimate manner. About fifteen minutes later, he went out again and helped the boss back.
This time, he actually stayed at Mr. Shen's house for about two hours before he and Miss Yao took the boss, whose mouth was covered in blood, into the elevator.
Nie Yuan still remembers the man named Xiao An clearly. He was the person that his boss had assigned to Pan Yue for investigation last time, and the childhood sweetheart who had once been jailed for killing someone for Miss Yao.
Nie Yuan's mood became even more complicated. If the previous incident could be said to be a good-intentioned concealment for the sake of harmonious relationship between the boss and Miss Yao, this time if he helped Miss Yao destroy the body, it would be hard to say that it was for the good of the boss.
Even Pan Yue refused to offer his help again: "I can't take the boss's money and allow the boss's wife to cheat on him at the same time."
The balance in Nie Yuan's heart began to shake violently, and in the end one side gained the upper hand. He asked aloud, "Do you want your boss to become a murderer?"
Pan Yue was stunned by his question: "What do you mean? No matter how crazy the boss is, he can't kill anyone, right?"
"When the boss was first hospitalized, I met Miss Yao once. Her neck was covered in severe bruises." Nie Yuan analyzed calmly, as if everything he did was for the boss. "Besides, Miss Yao was drunk that day. No one knows what happened. What if it was just a misunderstanding—"
Upon hearing this, Pan Yue couldn't help but frown deeply. "Nie Yuan, don't you think you're making too many assumptions and meddling too much? After all, this is the boss's family affair."
He fell silent, and smiled helplessly: "Then just consider it as helping me this time."
Even though Pan Yue was slow to react, he finally realized something. His jaw dropped in shock. "Nie Yuan, is that true? The boss lady already has a mistress, and you still want to be the fourth one?"
Nie Yuan refused to admit it: "Everything I do is, of course, for the boss. After all, he is our breadwinner."
When Pan Yue heard the term "parents who provide food and clothing", he couldn't help but think about it. The boss is the father, the boss's wife is the mother, and Nie Yuan actually treated Miss Yao...
Pan Yue quickly dispelled the ridiculous associations in his mind, and in the end, he could only sigh: "Nie Yuan, you are really a pervert."
He disagreed. Compared to his boss, Nie Yuan felt he was a normal human being. He had originally only thought of taking precautions, but he hadn't expected that this preventive measure would come in handy a few days later.
The reason was that Shen Xingchuan learned that Professor Wu, a nationally renowned psychiatrist, was on a business trip to City A and arranged a meeting.
It’s not that he doesn’t believe in the level of Chuanhe Hospital, he just wants to try more possibilities.
After the meeting, Shen Xingchuan indeed gained new insights. For example, after listening to his description of his symptoms, the other party did not rush to judge his mental state. Instead, he asked this question: "Mr. Shen, have you ever been stimulated by anything in real life? For example, have you witnessed your wife behaving in an ambiguous manner with someone?"
This is a hypothesis that the doctors at Chuanhe Hospital would consider in their minds but would never put forward. After all, that is their boss and boss's wife, and no one would be so stubborn.
At that time, Shen Xingchuan decisively denied Professor Wu's guess. He didn't think Yao Yingxia had such courage, and subconsciously refused to admit that she might betray herself, but Professor Wu's words still had some impact on him.
For example, early the next morning, he arranged for people to install hidden cameras in every room in the house, and sent Pan Yue to retrieve the surveillance footage in the community on the day of getting the certificate.
The response was: "The surveillance equipment can only store content for 30 days, and there is no backup. Content that has exceeded the period has been completely overwritten and cannot be retrieved."
At a time and place unknown to Yao Yingxia, she escaped death again, and everything that happened that day became untraceable.
Yao Yingxia continued her college life peacefully. It would be even better if Shen Xingchuan would quiet down a bit.
He would send dozens of messages every day. The ones I received in the morning were mostly apologies: "Xia Xia, I'm sorry," "Honey, I was wrong," "Baby, forgive me."
After that, I would report my daily schedule in detail, which was nothing more than various complicated tasks and taking time out for psychological counseling.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he became affectionate again and sent messages like "Honey, I miss you", "I hope I can dream of you today", and "I want to hug Xia Xia to sleep together".
Yao Yingxia blocked him a long time ago, so she couldn't see these messages, but Shen Xingchuan would occasionally call her on video to test her attitude.
When Yao Yingxia clicked to hang up, she would always accidentally touch it and jump to the conversation interface. Seeing the disgusting things sent by Shen Xingchuan would even make her depressed for the whole night.
On the fourth weekend after Yao Yingxia started school, Shen Xingchuan wanted to fly to City S to continue his efforts to reconcile, but he heard the assistant who usually helped him book flights say, "Mr. Shen, Miss Yao has booked a flight back to City A at 8 o'clock this Saturday morning."
For the whole day, Shen Xingchuan was in an unusually good mood. He didn't even take any medicine at night and fell into a deep sleep.
On Saturday morning, Yao Yingxia was notified of an upgrade at the airport, and she realized very clearly that her whereabouts had been discovered again. After getting off the plane, she saw him at the airport gate.
Shen Xingchuan was probably looking forward to this meeting. He looked like he had been carefully groomed by a stylist from head to toe. It was so exaggerated that even if he walked on the red carpet now, it would not look out of place.
Ignoring external factors, Shen Xingchuan's condition was much better than the last time they met. Nie Yuan said that after taking the medicine, Shen Xingchuan's "delusions" had been greatly improved, and he no longer had nightmares at night, but his insomnia was still quite serious.
The man in front of her was smiling too brightly, and even wanted to give her a hug as if nothing had happened. Yao Yingxia dodged to the side and walked towards the taxi passage without saying a word.
Shen Xingchuan was not discouraged and wanted to take the small suitcase from her hand: "Xia Xia, the driver is waiting for us in the parking lot."
But before his hand touched the handle, the suitcase had been moved to the other side. Yao Yingxia seemed not to have heard what he had just said and stubbornly queued up to take a taxi.
Shen Xingchuan forced his way into the same car, thinking that Yao Yingxia would be angry and curse, but she didn't expect that she didn't drive him away in order to avoid talking to him.
When the driver asked for the address, Yao Yingxia actually reported Chuanhe Hospital. Even though Shen Xingchuan knew that she came back for her mother, he still felt a sense of loss.
After not seeing each other for a month, the sick look on Xu Nian's face seemed to have lessened a lot, and Yao Yingxia even felt that her mother had gained a little weight.
The attending physician explained, "Ms. Xu recently received a very advanced stem cell therapy, which has shown remarkable results. Her cerebral cortex has become noticeably more active."
Shen Xingchuan saw a smile on that cold face for the first time in a long time, but as the doctor left, she became expressionless again.
Shen Xingchuan was in a complicated mood. He spent a fortune on himself, but could only win a smile from the beauty. It was too difficult to please Yao Yingxia from the root.
He originally wanted to stay here all day, but he had something to do at the company, so Shen Xingchuan had to leave the hospital after an hour.
However, he soon received several photos sent by the person in charge of surveillance.
Not long after he left, Xiao An entered Xu Nian's ward. The two stayed there for a while, then went to the hospital cafeteria together to have lunch.
There was clearly no close contact between them, and Shen Xingchuan knew that this was just Yao Yingxia's brother, but when he saw the photo of the two of them smiling at each other, the familiar heartache began to attack again.
He covered his chest, his face so pale that Song You, who had just returned from the bathroom, wanted to call the emergency number on the spot, but in the end Shen Xingchuan just waved his hand: "I'm fine."
Song You had to persuade him: "My dear Mr. Xiaochuan, you can't work too hard. Without a good body, what's the point of earning more money? Think about how good your health was before, how come it's so bad now?"
Of course, he couldn't tell Shen Xingchuan about his unspeakable secret. After another five minutes of rest, his expression finally recovered. "Where were we just talking?"
Song You handed him the document at hand: "The details of the cooperation still need to be finalized——"
Perhaps remembering something, Song You took out his phone and said, "Wait a moment, I'll have someone send some information."
He made a phone call and said, "Xiao Ruo, go to my study, turn on the computer, and send me the document labeled 'budget' on the desktop."
After hanging up the phone, Song You saw his old friend staring at him. He was startled by the look in his eyes that seemed to want to penetrate him.
Song You leaned back slightly and distanced himself from him: "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Xingchuan simply asked, "Who is Xiao Ruo?"
Song You almost panicked instantly. At this moment, he finally remembered what Xiao Ruo had told him - don't mention her name or the relationship between her and Xiao An in front of Shen Xingchuan.
But Song You put it out of his mind after hearing it and didn't take it seriously. He didn't think there was anything wrong when he made the phone call just now.
Song You simply acted like a rogue and said, "Why are you asking so many questions? Are you trying to steal my woman?"
So Shen Xingchuan got the answer he wanted - Xiao Ruo was Song You's woman.
He slowly recalled that he seemed to have heard this name mentioned at a party. According to the time calculation, he was able to match the face that he had not paid much attention to with this name.
He then asked, "What is the relationship between Xiao An and Xiao Ruo?"
Song You's back was sweating. He pretended to be calm and said, "One is my driver and the other is my female companion. What kind of relationship can there be between them? They are just like Wang Er and Wang Wu."
If they both had the surname Wang, it wouldn't have caught his attention, but it was an uncommon surname. Song You was just thankful that the siblings, one taking after their father and the other after their mother, didn't look alike.
Shen Xingchuan smiled, seemingly unwilling to delve further into the matter. He simply patted Song You on the shoulder and asked, "Is it hot? Why are you sweating so much?"
-----------------------
The author has something to say: I’m afraid everyone has forgotten the previous plot, so I’ll remind you here [poor]
Xia Xia and Xiao Ruo had met before at a party, but they acted as if they didn't know each other. If it was discovered that Xiao Ruo was Xiao An's biological sister, then Xia Xia, as Xiao An's cousin, should know Xiao Ruo. So later Xiao Ruo told Song You not to mention her name in front of the male protagonist.
