Two years later.
Blue Sky Psychological Counseling Room.
"Skye, your guest has been waiting for you for a long time."
Vivian, the receptionist, stood up when she saw Song Xingyao push the door open and enter.
"Thank you, I'll be right there. Here's some coffee for you."
He handed it over casually, and Vivian immediately showed her gratitude. Caffeine always seemed to revitalize the already dulled souls of working people.
Although I really wanted to give this beautiful Eastern woman a kiss on the cheek, it was clearly not the right time.
Song Xingyao opened a psychological counseling center, which, although small in scale, has a considerable reputation.
Many wealthy people in country S have sought help, but due to the long waiting list, the consultation time seems to be indefinitely delayed.
In the field of psychiatry in country S, some people have fabricated stories about a mysterious Eastern woman who provides psychological counseling to powerful figures and can restore the sanity of mentally unstable individuals.
That was obviously an exaggeration, but Song Xingyao couldn't clarify it because it was spread by the father of that mentally unstable royal prince himself...
Song Xingyao joked with Vivian, "Am I a witch?"
Both of them were quite helpless.
Pushing open the office door, I saw that the guest Vivian had mentioned was none other than Shi Yu.
He leaned leisurely against the window and picked up a watering can to spray water on a spider plant.
I didn't turn around until I heard a familiar voice behind me.
Song Xingyao: "Why are you here? Weren't you in Jiangcheng with Zhuo Wen?"
He put down what he was holding, and unusually became a little unserious. "He fired me. Why don't I come and come to you for help? At least we're in the same field."
Song Xingyao: "...".
"Okay, but I'm not like him. I can't offer such a high salary. Although it's not like you'll become poor overnight, compared to your previous life, you definitely won't be able to enjoy a life of luxury as easily."
She smiled and agreed, not taking his words seriously.
The latter suddenly became serious.
Song Xingyao was a little puzzled and stared at him, waiting for him to finish speaking.
Shi Yu: "Lin Shuang has run away again... He asked me to come and see if Lin Shuang will come looking for you."
……again?
Lin Shuang was Zhuo Wen's first love, and Song Xingyao only met her in the last two years. They separated because of Zhuo Yue's situation and Zhuo Wen's need to inherit Orland's family business. They had no contact for a long time, but unexpectedly, they met again at Zhuo Yue's grave two years ago.
Previously, Lin Shuang was the one who actively pursued Zhuo Wen, but now the tables have turned, and Zhuo Wen has fallen into her hands.
He would disappear three times a year, and it was common for him to disappear five times. But almost every time he would hide in Song Xingyao's place and be caught and taken back by Zhuo Wen.
But she didn't come this time?
Song Xingyao: "She really didn't come this time. Maybe it's because you came too quickly, so she didn't have time to come over. But what's the reason this time?"
"Zhuo Wen proposed to her, and she ran away."
"A marriage proposal? Zhuo Wen? Hmm... that would definitely scare him away." Song Xingyao waved her hand to show her understanding.
Instead, Shi Yu's expression changed: "...It's rare to see you not on Zhuo Wen's side this time. Is marriage some kind of monster?"
"Of course, it's not like I've never been married before... So if you're asking me what the benefits are, well, I can't really tell you right now."
Seeing Song Xingyao's indifferent attitude and unchanged expression, Shi Yu realized that she had probably really left...
"Yes, yes, yes, our Witch Song has the most rich life experience, no wonder you managed to handle such difficult patients. But aren't you planning to go back?"
After a long silence, Song Xingyao knew what he was asking about: Jiang Cheng.
It turns out she's been gone for four years.
In recent years, she has not deliberately avoided that place or news about that person. On the contrary, his business in S country has been thriving, and she inevitably comes into contact with news about him when she comes into contact with nobles and royalty.
It could be that the stock price rose by a certain amount today, or that they invested in something new tomorrow.
Fu Siming was almost like someone living next to me.
Seeing her lost in thought, Shi Yu added, "Jiangcheng First Hospital has a neurology research project and wants you to go and assist them with some hypnosis-related experiments. If you don't want to go..."
"Go, why not go? The projects at Jiangcheng No. 1 Hospital are always of extremely high quality. It would be a waste not to go."
She tidied the table and tried to get her thoughts back to normal.
"Besides, I also want to go back and see Xunzhi..."
Her voice was unusually tinged with guilt. Over the years, Zhuo Wen had often had the opportunity to bring news of Fu Xunzhi to Song Xingyao because of his cooperation with Fu Siming. He watched him grow up day by day, and his appearance became more and more similar to Fu Siming's.
As a mother, she was indeed too cruel, but because of this, Fu Siming did not find a stepmother for the child, which puzzled her but also made her feel fortunate.
Even now, when she thinks of that scene that resembled a family of three, she almost can't help but tremble, if Fu Xunzhi really called a strange woman "Mom".
Song Xingyao thought that her heart must be bleeding, but she left on her own, so she couldn't blame anyone else.
Even if Fu Xunzhi doesn't acknowledge her, she thought, that wouldn't be surprising, but what mother could abandon her child...
Shi Yu: "I thought I would help you refuse, but it seems you already have a plan. Here is the project manager's information; you can contact him directly if needed. Since Lin Shuang didn't come here, I'll go to Jiangcheng and tell Zhuo Wen first. When you get back, let me know, and I'll come pick you up."
"no problem."
The two didn't exchange any more pleasantries. Shi Yu walked to the door, turned around, and glanced at her.
Song Xingyao took out a photo album that was almost bursting with pages and flipped through it one by one until Vivian came in and told her that the visitor she had booked had arrived, which brought her back to her senses.
A week later, after finishing her work at the Blue Sky Counseling Center, Song Xingyao gave Vivian a hug.
"I'm leaving. Don't worry about me. Please take care of things here for me. I'm just going there to do some research. Why do you seem to think I'm not coming back?"
Vivian became increasingly upset by her words and playfully complained to her.
"Someone will come to install the coffee machine this afternoon. I bought it especially for you, so don't love me too much."
He then put on sunglasses and got into a taxi.
Jiangcheng Airport.
As soon as Song Xingyao landed and turned on her phone, she heard two notification sounds.
I sent a text message to the other side and then walked out of the airport.
He flagged down a car at random.
Pei Jing got out of the car parked nearby and opened the door for the person in the back seat.
“Mr. Fu, I can handle things in S country myself, why do you have to go there in person? The young master is about to start school, and if you don't come back, Ms. Jiang will…”
Fu Siming: "It'll only be a week. Things over there aren't that complicated. I'll be back."
After saying that, Fu Siming thought for a moment before changing his words: "I'll be back in five days at most."
