"However, his mind was disturbed, he was misled by external things, and his obsessions were too strong, which damaged his own vitality."
Ling Qingxue continued to explain in her own terminology, "This 'external thing' is the game. Being immersed in it for a long time, turning day and night upside down, and having an intense inner fire will lead to a drastic change in temperament."
Night Enchantress added, "Simply put, he's become obsessed with games! Plus, you guys might be too strict, which has backfired."
Mr. Li seemed to have been struck by a remark, and sighed, "We're doing this for his own good... He's about to enter junior high school..."
Zhang Shaozhong quickly stepped in to smooth things over, playing the role of "psychological consultant" and "family mediator": "Mr. Li, Mrs. Li, the root of the child's problem really lies in play and communication. Forcibly prohibiting it is not the solution; guidance is needed."
We suggest that, firstly, children should be allowed to play games appropriately, but time limits must be strictly set; secondly, children should be taken outdoors more often to divert their attention; and finally, and most importantly, parents should communicate patiently to understand their children's thoughts, rather than resorting to scolding or beatings.
He also gave Ling Qingxue and Ye Meier a meaningful look.
Ling Qingxue understood and said to Xiao Hao, "Young man, while the virtual world is interesting, the real world also has its colorful aspects. Excessive indulgence will only waste your time, harm your body and mind, and is not the act of a wise person." Her words carried a certain persuasiveness.
Ye Meier was even more direct. She leaned closer to Xiao Hao, gave him a "kind" smile, and lowered her voice: "Little brat, if you dare to yell at your parents like that again, or not eat or sleep properly... I'll spank your bottom next time."
A glint of purple light flashed in her eyes.
Xiao Hao trembled in fright and nodded hurriedly, "I...I understand! I'll be good!"
In the end, Zhang Shaozhong and his team didn't take the money for the exorcism, but instead collected a "psychological counseling and family relationship guidance fee," which was much less than what Mr. Wang had paid, but still within a reasonable range. After leaving some advice such as "get more sunshine" and "maintain a regular schedule," they departed.
On the way back, Ye Meier pouted, "How boring. I thought I could get some exercise. Turns out he's just a net addict."
Ling Qingxue seemed to be deep in thought: "The confusion of children in this world is actually similar to that in my world. The birth of inner demons has nothing to do with the amount of spiritual energy in the outside world."
Zhang Shaozhong remarked with emotion, "This deal teaches us that not all problems can be solved with metaphysics. Sometimes, science and communication are more important. However, our combination is quite good; the fairy's 'aura soothing' and your 'witch intimidation' are incredibly effective!"
Although this deal wasn't as exciting as he'd expected, Zhang Shaozhong felt more at ease.
This suggests that genuine "paranormal events" in the world may be few and far between; most are psychological and family issues. Perhaps their "Fairy and Demon Affairs Agency" could also function as a part-time "high-end family education consultant"?
It seems my business avenues have expanded a bit? Of course, I must ask more questions before accepting the next order! Zhang Shaozhong secretly decided.
