Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 531 - 505: It’s Actually Her

"What do you know! Qian’s request is legitimate! Do you know? This child has undergone an extreme mental shock while treating Meijing. Can’t you see she’s trying hard to adjust her state?"

"Is it that serious?" Mr Liu stopped pressing the button.

And unsurprisingly, he got scratched again...

"Old lady! I’ve noticed ever since Meijing got sick, you particularly love scratching people! Are you a cat?!"

And you always scratch the same spot! Can’t you change it up?

"Because you’re dumb as a rock! If you were my student with such poor comprehension, I’d have returned you long ago!"

"If someone with your explosive temper were my employee, I’d have kicked—" Mr Liu saw Mr. Liu’s cold stare and quickly changed his tone, "I’d have praised you long ago! Liu, you’re tenacious and spirited!"

A man who knows how to go with the flow won’t get scratched! Brilliant, no fault!

"I said your comprehension is poor, and you’re not convinced. It really is poor! Didn’t I just tell you how the subconscious works?"

"Yes, you talked about it." But I didn’t understand a word!

Mr Liu could only rage inwardly; understanding such highly technical concepts would be miraculous, yet he had to cooperate obediently.

"Everything we encounter and see in our daily lives impacts the subconscious. When Qian was treating Meijing, her subconscious was also affected. Meijing transmitted her negative emotions to her. Meijing has forgotten, but Qian remembers some unhappy things. Didn’t you notice her looking terrible?"

Mr. Liu looked at Qian’s back, worrying and muttering to himself.

"She even asked me about auditory hallucinations just now. This child... she really puts her heart into her work."

Though Qian never admits she’s a good person and often plays the villain, Mr. Liu sees her giving her all in treating and saving others. Precisely because she’s so invested, Qian finds herself stuck in Hu Meijing’s sadness. This type of emotion is widespread among psychologists; it’s called empathy.

"Yes, yes, Liu is right!" Mr Liu continued nodding, even though he still didn’t understand.

"Being a psychologist is a difficult job, constantly dealing with people with psychological issues. Once these negative emotions are transmitted to the doctor, they leave an impression in the subconscious. A good doctor must empathize with patients, but if these emotions aren’t released, they form rubbish in the subconscious, causing trouble for the doctor. So whenever I hear about psychologists getting depression, I genuinely feel sorry."

"Yes, yes, feel sorry—wait, what? Qian might get depression?!" Mr Liu finally understood something.

And yet got scratched again.

"Don’t talk nonsense! Qian won’t get depression, because—" Mr. Liu pointed to his phone, "Quickly make a call and order Yu Laomao to go and accompany her immediately! Because of working for you all, my student is caught in emotions. Hurry up! If the task isn’t done well, don’t come home; I won’t need you anymore!"

"..." As if you’d actually need someone now, with the divorce papers still not changed to marriage papers.

Mr Liu grumbled internally but acted quickly, making a call to instruct the shareholder meeting tomorrow to have Yu Minglang attend in his stead. After hanging up, Mr Liu still pondered over the suspense left by Mr. Liu.

"You said Qian won’t get depression, why?"

"Because she’s found a way to vent her emotions, her heart is settled. I used to think her engagement was too early, but now I see the benefits of being early. Perhaps a genius like her needs something to anchor her, so her heart doesn’t float too high. Someone to share her burdens during tough times."

The essence of a family should be like this.

Didn’t understand anything else, but this sentence Mr Liu understood. He cleared his throat.

"Well, Liu, since I have two hours left this afternoon and you don’t have anything to do now, why don’t we——"

Mr Liu struggled for a while but couldn’t finish his thought.

"Liu, since when did you develop a stuttering problem? Do you need me to treat you?"

"What I mean is, since we have some time, why not go to the civil affairs bureau and change the divorce papers to red? You see, even our child has a heart belonging now. You see so many patients every day, I’m also worried about your emotions! It’s not good for development."

With a glare from Mr. Liu, Mr Liu started babbling, not sure what he was rambling about.

Mr. Liu was amused, "You keep angering me time and again, what’s it to do with development? Anyway, I have my own ways to vent emotions, so don’t worry about me."

"Um..." Mr Liu had long been used to his spouse’s various forms of sharp tongue, being refused reconciliation was supposed to be quite disappointing, but somehow he was filled with boundless courage.

"Then can you do it for me? Let my heart have a belonging; with you and the kids assured in my heart, I’d be more at ease at the company. Liu, we’ve been apart for quite some time, I’ve realized I should do more laundry and cook more meals from now on, don’t be mad at me anymore."

"It’s not about the laundry! It’s really you—" Mr. Liu suddenly stopped, knowing it’s impressive for him to say this much already, not to expect further change as this is a significant breakthrough.

Mr Liu was visibly disappointed, it really can’t be done...

"Not today."

"Oh..." knew it wouldn’t be today...

"Don’t you need to tell your family about the reconciliation? Doing it just like this won’t work?"

Eh?! Mr Liu was overjoyed, did she mean she agreed?!

"Hey, why are you pulling me!"

"Taking you to my family, if you don’t get the papers done right away, we’ll just have dinner at home, along with asking my old folks for money gifts."

"Shameless..." Mr. Liu grumbled, but couldn’t help a radiant smile spreading across his face.

When Yu Minglang received the message, he was full of doubt.

Mr Liu said there was a special task for him, to quickly reach Nightlight Karaoke in disguise and return to the team the morning after tomorrow.

But what he was supposed to do upon arriving, Mr Liu didn’t elaborate much, just said he’d understand once he got there.

When Yu Minglang saw Qian standing at the karaoke entrance, he was briefly surprised.

As Qian watched him get out of the car, holding the key, her long legs wrapped in jeans passed through the crowd towards her, the oppressive feeling in her heart faded instantly.

It was as if his presence painted the originally dark surroundings in color, without needing to say anything; just by meeting eyes, a great deal of the negative emotions in her heart was dispelled.

"Why is it you?" His task turned out to be Qian? Wow, this surprise was too big, truly unexpected!
