Chapter 104 Rescue
Yan Nian slept dreamlessly until noon the next day. Even though his brain was conscious, he was still too tired to open his eyes.
After I regained consciousness, my whole body ached.
It's a bit hot, like being wrapped in a furnace.
Yan Nian slowly opened her eyes to look for the source of heat. The first thing that caught her eye was the sexy Adam's apple and the faint red mark, and a familiar breath was blowing on her head.
She was lying on her side, sleeping in Zhou Ran's arms.
She was so tired last night that she fell asleep immediately. Now when she thought of those scenes, her memory became clearer and clearer, forcing her eyes to see more clearly.
The corners of Yan Nian's eyes were a little pink from being covered. She moved quietly, afraid of waking up the person next to her, and looked up at him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I raised my head, I met his light-colored eyes.
Zhou Ran held up the silent phone in one hand and looked at her quietly.
Eye contact.
Zhou Ran had a casual smile on his face and asked in a deep voice, "Awake?"
Yan Nian's heart beat faster. She closed her beautiful eyes, feeling the reality and ordinariness of him when she woke up for the first time.
The voice said "hmm" a little muffledly, and then asked, "What time is it now?"
Zhou Ran put down his phone: "It's half past twelve, do you want to sleep in or get up?"
Today was the first day of the holiday. Yan Nian wanted to stay in bed for a while. Too lazy to even talk, she just uttered one word: "Sleep."
She patted his hand and signaled him to pull it out, saying that it must be uncomfortable if he pressed on her for too long.
Zhou Ran did not pull his hand away, nor did he let her continue to sleep as she wished. Ever since he put down his phone, his hands have been restless.
There is a light citrus fragrance on Yan Nian's hair and body, light but not strong, when making love
Even the skin has this smell, like the body odor.
Yan Nian turned her back to him, took her hands off her waist, and said sadly, "I want to sleep."
Zhou Ran was amused and turned her over to face him: "I'll watch you sleep."
Yan Nian opened his eyes and said in a unhappy tone: "I can't sleep if you watch me."
Zhou Ran pecked her lips: "Then eat something before going to sleep, okay?"
Yan Nian buried her face in the quilt: "No."
There was a hint of coquettishness in his tone. Zhou Ran rubbed her head and said, "Then go to sleep. Call me if you need anything."
Zhou Ran got up, lifted the quilt, quickly put on his clothes and went out.
Yan Nian did not fall into a deep sleep. His eyes were closed but his mind was wide awake. He heard Zhou Ran come in several times.
Yan Nian no longer slept soundly until the doorbell rang outside, and she was completely awakened.
Someone is coming.
Yan Nian opened his eyes wide and listened to the noise outside. He vaguely heard that it was a middle-aged woman.
Yan Nian's whole body tensed up instantly. As the voice gradually became clearer, she realized that it didn't sound like the voice of Zhou Ran's mother, Zhao Ning.
She relaxed a little, got up, tiptoed quietly to the door barefoot, opened a crack and looked out through the peephole.
My heart finally settled when I saw a figure passing by.
It's the cleaning lady.
Yan Nian returned to the bedside. Her clothes had been washed and placed on the cabinet beside the bed.
After her aunt left, Yan Nian quickly put on her clothes and opened the bedroom door. Zhou Ran did the same thing as her, but with her hands frozen in the air, she also tried to open the door, but she was one step faster.
Zhou Ran withdrew his hand: "Are you hungry?"
Yan Nian nodded: "Yeah."
When I left the bedroom, the living room had already returned to normal.
The carpet beside the sofa was also replaced with a new one. Yan Nian blushed as she sat down at the dining table. Zhou Ran opened the food box that his aunt had just brought.
It's a portion for two people, with porridge, vegetables and meat.
The colors were well matched and the aroma was fragrant. When Yan Nian looked at it, her stomach started to growl.
Zhou Ran brought her a glass of warm water and handed her the chopsticks: "Drink some water first and then eat."
After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Zhou Ran sent her back to Huayue Mansion.
Before getting off the car, Zhou Ran asked, "We have a dinner party tonight. Do you want to go with me?"
Yan Nian refused on the spot: "No."
Zhou Ran smiled and said, "I have something to do tomorrow. Can I accompany you the day after tomorrow?"
Yan Nian: "Okay!"
After watching Zhou Ran’s car leave, Yan Nian walked home.
After taking a shower and changing my underwear, I turned on the TV and listened to the music since I had nothing to do.
In the past, when I was alone, I would read a book and daydream, and the day would be over.
But now he was a little afraid of being alone, and Yan Nian didn't know what was wrong.
I used to think how nice it would be if there were no sounds in my world.
Now, for the first time in my life, I feel lonely again.
She looked at her silent phone again and suddenly wanted to try it.
She pushed the mute button up and turned the volume up.
She placed her phone on the low table and stared at it, biting her lip nervously.
Then, two news messages were pushed in, with two consecutive "dong dong" sounds. When Yan Nianguan heard the sound, he was afraid that it was a phone call. His heart trembled, and he hurriedly turned to silent mode.
The newly gained confidence was once again trampled under the feet of fear.
The attempt failed.
-
Zhou Ran followed the navigation address on WeChat and drove to the coffee shop in the mall.
As soon as he entered the coffee shop, Mu Chen, who was sitting by the window, waved to him.
Zhou Ran walked over and sat down opposite him: "Teacher Mu, I've been waiting for a long time."
Mu Chen smiled elegantly: "I just got here too."
Zhou Ran raised his hand to check the time. He had made an appointment with Muchen a few days ago. Muchen wanted to transfer his work to a psychological counseling center in Lindu. He was recently going through the process at Lingyun's school and didn't have enough time. He had to go back to Lingyun to be with his parents during the holidays. The flight was at 4 pm, so he only had half an hour left.
Zhou Ran said, "Time is running out, so I'll make it short."
After Zhou Ran finished explaining the general situation, Mu Chen narrowed his eyes and asked in disbelief, "Yan Nian has a fear of telephones?"
Zhou Ran: "Yeah."
Mu Chen never thought that in the past few years, he had been counseling Yan Nian at the request of Xu Ke, but Yan Nian had never told him about this.
Seeing that he was silent, Zhou Ran asked, "Teacher Mu, you have been in Lingyun before, so you should know something about her past. Would you mind telling me about it?"
Mu Chen expected him to ask this and smiled: "Although Yan Nian and I don't have a one-on-one consulting relationship, we are still friends. Between friends, it is even more inconvenient for me to tell you. I hope you can understand."
In addition to his professionalism, Mu Chen also has some selfish motives.
Yan Nian is a good girl and Zhou Ran is a good man. Mu Chen saw it the last time he found Yan Nian by the river.
The two people really like each other. After so many years, they have finally come together. They should avoid what can be avoided. No one wants to tear off the most vulnerable side of the past and put it in front of the person they love the most. It is meaningless except for adding troubles.
Zhou Ran respected Mu Chen: "I understand. Teacher Mu, is there any good treatment for this situation?"
"Long-term silence, procrastination, and fear," Mu Chen said, "This situation is actually very common, but hers has lasted longer. We need to find out the real cause of the fear before we can make a detailed analysis."
"During this time, you can try to enlighten her."
Zhou Ran listened carefully.
Mu Chen said, "We need to understand whether her fear is often caused by unpleasant communications or major events. If we can identify one of them, everything will be fine."
Zhou Ran: "Okay, I understand."
Zhou Ran personally sent Mu Chen to the airport and helped him take his luggage out of the trunk.
"Thank you!" Before leaving, Mu Chen said earnestly, "You are the person she trusts the most."
Zhou Ran's phone vibrated. Hearing what he said, he hung up the phone and looked up at him.
Mu Chen said, "Actually, at the end of her freshman year, I counseled her for a few months. She often mentioned you to me and always felt guilty about you. But she didn't even tell Xu Ke and me about this. You must be the only one who knows!"
Mu Chen patted his shoulder and said, "I know you care about her very much. Don't put too much pressure on her. It would be great if she could open up and talk about it. Remember not to be anxious and don't think she is too vulnerable. From what I know about her, maybe she has tried to save herself, but failed."
Zhou Ran frowned and said, "Well, thank you for your hard work. Goodbye."
