Chapter 472
Rong Rong had this feeling not only because of Shen Chexuan's image, but also because of the layout and color scheme of Shen Chexuan's office.
The meticulously arranged scene, the professional color scheme, and Shen Chexuan's every move made it clear that from the moment Rong Rong entered, she stepped into a world that Shen Chexuan had specially created for her.
Rong Rong's sense of trust, comfort, and security are all things that Shen Chexuan desires, and achieving these is also a fundamental skill for a psychology expert.
After Rong Rong sat down, Shen Chexuan poured her a glass of water. Rong Rong picked up the glass, took a small sip, and got straight to the point.
"I suspect my boyfriend isn't my boyfriend."
"Is that so?" Shen Chexuan smiled, his expression remaining calm.
If someone else heard this, they would probably think Rong Rong was crazy, or just think it was a joke.
But Shen Chexuan not only didn't find these words strange or absurd, he also encouraged Rong Rong to continue.
Rong Rong, who was initially a little apprehensive, instantly let down her guard and completely opened her heart to Shen Chexuan.
"Yes, but that's just my feeling. He looks and has the same habits as me, but I just feel like he's not me." Rong Rong smiled sheepishly, feeling that her words were incoherent and illogical, and even a little funny.
Shen Chexuan looked at Rong Rong with certainty, and Rong Rong's panicked heart gradually calmed down.
When Shen Chexuan entered this small world, he had already checked Rong Rong's information. He knew that the No. 1 examiner, Si Yuxiao, was Rong Rong's boyfriend.
The other two examiners, number 2 and number 3, have disappeared without a trace. In particular, the number 3 examiner was the one the mastermind ordered him to kill, and Shen Chexuan has no idea where he is hiding.
Shen Chexuan felt that this assessment was chaotic, but Rong Rong's words gave him some kind of guess.
Si Yuxiao and Ling Jue are most likely dead and out of the game. Now, Rong Rong's boyfriend, Si Yuxiao, is very likely the No. 3 examiner, Lei Ke, who is also his target.
Now Shen Chexuan understood the situation of this world. Just as he had guessed at the beginning, Rong Rong was the cause of the chaos in this assessment and the most unstable factor.
But he will no longer kill Rong Rong as originally planned. He should kill Lei Ke, a despicable rat pretending to be Rong Rong's boyfriend!
At this moment, Shen Chexuan was very happy that Rong Rong's senses were so sharp that she was able to discover that Lei Ke was an imposter and even came to him.
"Could you tell me in detail why you suspect your boyfriend?" Shen Chexuan adjusted his posture, and the two chatted like friends.
Rong Rong recounted the whole story without any psychological barriers, including how she tested Si Yuxiao.
“My relationship with my boyfriend used to be very close, but now I feel a sense of estrangement and unfamiliarity. As for whether there is any evidence to prove that he is not him, I don’t have any. I can only say it’s a sixth sense.”
Rong Rong gave a self-deprecating laugh, "You must find it very funny, right?"
“Of course not.” Shen Chexuan denied. Rong Rong’s eyes widened in surprise. Shen Chexuan said seriously, “The sixth sense is actually the human subconscious. The subconscious is stronger, more accurate and more terrifying than the conscious mind.”
"You said your body is resisting his touch? It's very likely that your body is more certain than you are, so it listens to its subconscious."
"You mean my boyfriend isn't really my boyfriend? He's a fake?" Rong Rong suddenly sat up straight, her relaxed mood turning tense again.
Shen Chexuan smiled and helped Rong Rong lie back on the chair. "No, I don't know your boyfriend, and I've never even met him. How would I know if he's real or fake?"
I'm just telling you what your subconscious is trying to express.
“My subconscious…” Rong Rong murmured, her face turning pale. Wasn’t her subconscious saying that the current Si Yuxiao was not Si Yuxiao?
Just thinking about it sent chills down Rong Rong's spine and gave her goosebumps. She leaned tightly against the back of her chair and rubbed her arms with her hands.
Suddenly a blanket was draped over her, its soft warmth like a salvation. Rong Rong clutched the blanket tightly, wrapping herself up as if that would protect her from harm.
"But how is that possible? How can there be two people in the world who look so alike? Not only do they look exactly the same, but he also knows all of Xiao Ge's secrets!"
Everyone says he is Brother Xiao, but I'm the only one who doubts him.
Tears welled up in Rong Rong's eyes as she was deeply tormented by the self-blame, pressure, and fear she had been experiencing for many days.
If Rong Rong was originally as beautiful as a stunningly beautiful flower, now that flower is trembling slightly, it makes Shen Chexuan's heart tremble as well.
Shen Chexuan wanted to step forward and embrace her, comforting her gently, but reason made him restrain himself. It was their first meeting, and he couldn't be too forward with Rong Rong.
Shen Chexuan pulled out a tissue and handed it to Rong Rong, who took it and slowly wiped away the tears in her eyes.
After calming down for a while, Rong Rong looked up at Shen Chexuan and smiled, "Thank you."
Her still watery eyes shone brightly, almost making Shen Chexuan lose his soul. He quickly looked away, wanting to press his hand to his chest and calm his wildly beating heart.
But he didn't. He took a deep breath and tried to keep his expression natural. "Tell me why you suddenly came to see me. Do you think you have psychological problems? Do you think you suspect your boyfriend is because you're sick?"
Shen Chexuan changed the subject, and Rong Rong, as expected, didn't notice Shen Chexuan's reaction and continued chatting.
“I witnessed my boyfriend being stabbed, and I was also captured and imprisoned by the murderer for six months.”
I lived with the murderer every day, constantly filled with fear and dread.
Rong Rong unconsciously recalled what happened half a year ago, her eyes somewhat dazed. She didn't notice that when she mentioned her boyfriend being stabbed, a dark light flashed in Shen Chexuan's eyes.
"Go on," Rong Rong suddenly looked anxiously at Shen Chexuan, who listened patiently.
"Do you think it's possible that the image of Brother Xiao lying in a pool of blood was too gruesome for me, which triggered my feelings and made me have the illusion that Brother Xiao was a fake?"
Rong Rong eagerly awaited Shen Chexuan's reply, hoping to hear a definite answer from him.
Shen Chexuan could also see that he wanted to fulfill Rong Rong's wish, but he couldn't.
"Perhaps we can find the answer if we go back to that day."
"Back to that day?" Rong Rong suddenly opened her eyes wide, and if you looked closely, there was a hint of fear in her eyes.
"Yes, as long as you trust me wholeheartedly, follow my guidance, and listen to my instructions, we can return to that day."
Don't worry! I'll go back with you! I'll stay by your side, and then we'll find the answers together!
Shen Chexuan spoke with confidence and determination, wanting to give Rongrong courage and be her support, but the fear in Rongrong's eyes grew stronger.
That day, Si Yuxiao lay in a pool of blood. She pretended to be blind to the murderer and ran away. It was the darkest and most terrifying moment of her life, one she did not want to face and dared not.
