Chapter 433: Chapter 407: Layers of Mystery (Thanks to Tangmen=Meng Meng’s He’s Jade Pendant+Update)

Xiao Qian hadn’t seen the patient’s information and name yet when a call came in on the mobile phone next to her. The caller ID showed it was Yu Minglang, so that’s why she called out Xiao Qiang, not because the medical record mentioned Xiao Qiang.

“Qian Bao, what are you doing?” His voice was a bit tired.

“I just came back from the teacher’s place.”

“Teacher?”

“It’s Uncle Liu’s ex-wife. Xiao Qiang, your voice sounds tired.”

Yu Minglang chuckled, “I’m not tired when I listen to you.”

In fact, he had just completed a grueling negotiation, stayed up for three days and two nights, and finally had some free time to think of Xiao Qian.

“Silly, rest if you’re tired. Call me again after you wake up.” She could probably guess that Yu Minglang hadn’t slept for a long time. The thought of him calling her in such exhaustion made her feel heartache.

“Alright, I’m going to sleep— On the 15th of next month, do you have class between 3-5 pm in the afternoon?”

“Is something up?” Xiao Qian asked.

“Yeah, I need to go to your place for a business talk. We will have an hour to meet if you are available.”

“I’m available.” Xiao Qian closed her class schedule, ignoring the classes written on it. She would see Xiao Qiang no matter the circumstances, overcoming any difficulties!

“I’ll call you when I arrive. Qian Bao, I miss you.” His voice was like warm sunshine, gently enveloping her ears and heart through the phone.

“I know.” Xiao Qian wanted to hang up, but remembered his previous complaints about her not being proactive. The image of his upset face deeply etched into Xiao Qian’s heart, so she added another sentence.

“I miss you too.”

When Yu Minglang hung up, he thought he had heard wrong. It took him a while to react that his Qian Bao had really changed, and she had become more womanly.

“Hehe…” Yu Minglang stood by the phone with a big smile, savoring the moment.

“Silly, I’m hanging up now!” she heard his teasing and chided.

“Wait—Xiao Mei, can you please give me a kiss?” Yu Minglang was clearly pushing his luck. Xiao Qian had always been aloof, and he felt she was a bit passive. Now that she had responded to him, he couldn’t help but want more.

“No.” Xiao Qian was ready to hang up, as she wasn’t the type to cling to a man.

However, she heard noises from Yu Minglang’s side.

“Young Boss, you got rejected again, didn’t you? Hahaha!”

“Xiao Qiang, put the phone on speaker.”

Yu Minglang didn’t know what she was going to do, but he would do anything she said. Qiao Zhen and other secretaries were around him, all giving him teasing looks, unanimously thinking, so the devilish Young Boss has a weak side too!

There were rumors that the Young Boss’s fiancée was aloof, and it seemed the rumors were true.

Yu Minglang reluctantly put the phone on speaker mode. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have made the call with these people around…

“I can’t kiss because I don’t want to spoil you. It’d be a waste to give the phone your benefit. When you come, we can kiss however we want. As for the guys around, sorry for embarrassing myself in front of you. Goodbye.”

Xiao Qian hung up after saying that.

Yu Minglang’s mood instantly soared, looking at the colleagues around him who were blushing and giving him envious and jealous looks. He smugly patted their shoulders.

“Did you hear that? My Xiao Mei is being considerate of me, not rejecting me like you said!” When Yu Minglang was showing off, his inner thoughts were: why didn’t I pull everyone from the company to listen to how cute my Xiao Mei is!

“…How did you manage to fool Sister-in-law?” Qiao Zhen asked in disbelief. A man with a devilish personality like the Young Boss could also have such a good woman, it was so infuriating!

“What do you mean by fooling? Sister-in-law and I fell in love at first sight! When I first saw her, I knew she had to be my daughter-in-law. You guys with low wit and shallow knowledge can’t understand this type of love at first sight!”

Yu Minglang completely ignored his previous nervousness and distress, basking in the sunshine and encouraging resentment.

Feeling the fatigue from work instantly gone, his energy miraculously replenished, and he looked forward to the brief meeting that was a month away.

After hanging up, Xiao Qian thought of the impact she might have had on the simple little brothers on the other end of the phone, and her mood improved a lot.

Today, due to the teacher’s matter, her mood hadn’t been good. But after talking to Xiao Qiang for a while, her mood was much better. It seems that being in love doesn’t only make one’s IQ drop, but also has positive effects.

Xiao Qian carefully read the files given by the teacher. Her task was to handle a man named Chu Xuan. The information written mentioned that he is a civil servant, 28 years old, married, and has mild manic disorder in the spring. When the condition strikes, he becomes emotionally excited. To Xiao Qian’s judgment, slight medication combined with her therapy could cure it quickly.

It was just a very ordinary psychological consultation, with low difficulty. Xiao Qian looked through the information again, feeling puzzled.

Did the teacher deliberately find this person for her to lessen the difficulty? Although the teacher was not as money-minded as Xiao Qian, the cases she took were either highly representative or very serious, or in the worst case, related to the teacher, like how Yu Minglang’s mother had sought help from the teacher for Panpan’s treatment.

In other words, the cases the teacher dealt with must be complex or with complex backgrounds, so where did this ordinary case come from?

Xiao Qian didn’t realize then that this seemingly ordinary case actually concealed a deep origin behind it. That would be a story for later. At this moment, she believed the teacher had intentionally lowered the difficulty and didn’t want to force her to do something difficult. So, after studying the medical record and writing a treatment plan, she called the patient using the contact information provided.

Unexpectedly, a woman answered the phone.

“Hello, I’m the psychologist recommended by Professor Liu. May I speak to Mr. Chu Xuan?”

“Ah, you’re the one recommended by godmother? He’s out running. Doctor, will my husband’s condition be serious? He’s been emotionally excited every day recently, talking non-stop when he gets excited, and often exercising until midnight.”

The woman’s voice was gentle, and there was undeniable concern. She sounded like a kind and virtuous wife.

“I’ll have to meet him before I know. But based on my experience, it shouldn’t be a big problem.” When Xiao Qian heard her call Professor Liu ‘godmother,’ her doubts were resolved. No wonder, the teacher wouldn’t have taken on such an ordinary case unless the person was a very close friend.

Since the person she wanted to find wasn’t there, Xiao Qian was ready to hang up and call again later. Then she heard a man’s voice on the other end of the phone.

“Mei Jing, who is it?”

This woman is called Mei Jing? Xiao Qian paused, and then dismissed her thoughts. It must be a coincidence, as the teacher would never recognize that woman as her goddaughter.
