Chapter 384: Testing Li Mo
Daring to lie in front of a psychologist, how strong must one’s mental fortitude be?
Su Wanxin answered Zhong Xian’s question with an unfazed expression, yet that moment of hesitation still betrayed her inner feelings.
Zhong Xian’s eyes flickered slightly, noticing the hesitation, and he became suspicious. However, after a moment of thought, he did not expose her and continued questioning.
Thinking about it, he and Su Wanxin had known each other for quite some time.
During the time he had interacted with her as a psychologist, Zhong Xian found that Su Wanxin was a person with an especially strong sense of caution.
Perhaps this is a common trait among businessmen, but for a patient, it is not a good thing.
This was the first time Su Wanxin had brought up the car accident to him; before this, she had only mentioned her depression. This indicated that in her view, the car accident was more significant than her depression.
She was still not completely relaxed around Zhong Xian; he didn’t dare startle her.
In contrast, during this period of treatment, the madam of the Fu Family had already made significant progress, and Li Mo’s attitude towards Zhong Xian had improved a lot.
Therefore, Zhong Xian decided to test Li Mo when he visited the Fu Family in a couple of days.
"After so much time, recalling everything must be difficult. But as long as you cooperate with the treatment and don’t stand me up every other day, it shouldn’t be too big of a problem."
Zhong Xian was silent for a long while, sarcastically teasing Su Wanxin, the queen of no-shows.
"Aren’t you businessmen always the most trustworthy? What’s going on with you?"
"Eh? Doctor Zhong, did you enroll me in a special speech class? Okay, that’s progress."
Su Wanxin clapped twice, a particularly emotionless and soulless kind.
"We shady dealers, when doing business, must be trustworthy because there is money to be made! But think about it, coming here costs me money, so sometimes I’m not so willing to see you."
Zhong Xian couldn’t out-talk her and gave up. After a deep sigh, he changed the topic and proceeded with her treatment.
More than an hour later, when Su Wanxin was about to leave, he couldn’t help but remind her—
"Remember to take your medication on time and don’t increase the dosage on your own. Call me anytime if you have any issues. Don’t stay up too late at night, no matter how busy work is, take care of your rest."
Su Wanxin nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, just like a child being instructed by a parent to "study hard at school".
To say she had a bad attitude, no, she did want to do well.
To say she had a good attitude, but her reaction seemed too perfunctory.
Su Wanxin ran off in a flash, changed the name of Zhong Xian in her contacts to "Aunt Zhong," and then drove to the hotel.
GE, a well-known international risk indicator company, had already explicitly mentioned establishing a new company in Hua Country, and Su Wanxin had secretly signed a contract with them.
The new company was named "Hua Zheng," considering various policy issues in Hua Country, so the company was initially wholly owned by Su Wanxin. Although it was said to be a collaboration with GE, GE currently only acted as a consultant.
Su Wanxin had kept some liquid funds on hand, with the rest of the money invested entirely in this new company. Even she found the remaining balance on her card pitiful.
At such times, no one should mention money to her, much less talk about borrowing money. Whoever mentioned it would face her wrath.
When she arrived at the hotel, Mr. Hodward, the president of GE, had already arrived and was standing with Fu Shihan, discussing something.
Many guests were invited today, mainly from the finance sector, so Su Wanxin’s presence was naturally expected by everyone, without anyone thinking too much about it.
