"We better wait in the living room, just in case sothing unexpected happens, we'll be able to react in ti," Xue Nuofu suggested.
Xiao Feng naturally had no objections and followed him to the living room.
Once in the living room, Xue Nuofu kept looking at the clock on the wall, then at the dormitory where Tie Wa was, and then just paced around.
Xiao Feng glanced at him, a smile playing on his lips.
Judging by his deanor, it quite fits the opening narration of an animal docuntary: "Spring has arrived, all things rejuvenate, it's the season for animals to breed.
The air in the forest is filled with the scent of hormones..."
Pulling back his thoughts, Xiao Feng seriously pondered the possibility between Xue Nuofu and Jia Luo.
After thinking it over various ways, it all seed a bit awkward.
However, things like this have always been a matter of personal taste, maybe the two really could find a spark?
Besides, whether the shoe fits, only the foot wearing it knows, outside opinions don't hold much weight.
"It's been half an hour and there's been no movent, could sothing serious have really happened?" Xue Nuofu couldn't help but speak up.
Xiao Feng, sitting on the sofa, resting with eyes closed, responded lightly, "If you're really worried, just look in through the back window, won't that tell you?"
"Right!" Xue Nuofu's eyes brightened, striding towards his room, obviously intending to climb out from there, then loop around to the rear window of Tie Wa and the others' dormitory to check.
"Boom!"
"Clang clang bang bang!"
At that mont, a chaotic noise ca from the dormitory of Tie Wa and the others.
Xiao Feng and Xue Nuofu exchanged glances, the latter making a beeline to rush over, kicking the door open with a shout, "Let her go!"
Xiao Feng, not knowing the situation, hurried over, only to see the shoe rack and the shelf for toothbrushes and cups all fallen to the ground, while Tie Wa was gripping Jia Luo's neck with one hand, pressing her against the wall.
"I told you to let her go!" Xue Nuofu shouted sternly at Tie Wa once more.
However, Tie Wa completely ignored him.
Xue Nuofu couldn't help but feel anxious, wanting to fight Tie Wa but worrying it would make Jia Luo's situation worse.
Thinking it over, he locked eyes with Xiao Feng, hurriedly saying, "Talk to him, get him to loosen his grip!
Hurry!"
If anyone could get through to Tie Wa, it was undoubtedly Xiao Feng.
So Xue Nuofu placing his hope in Xiao Feng was quite understandable.
However, Xiao Feng simply put his index finger to his lips, gesturing for silence.
Xue Nuofu was again anxious, but before he could speak, Jia Luo spoke with difficulty, "What I said earlier, you... think it over carefully.
Reality is even harsher than I described."
Imdiately, the scene fell into a deadlock, Tie Wa bowed his head as if contemplating sothing.
Jia Luo's expression showed no panic, seemingly still in control.
After a while, Tie Wa loosened his grip and sat on the floor.
On Jia Luo's pale neck appeared visible finger marks, she gasped for air, and once her breathing steadied, she waved for Xiao Feng and Xue Nuofu to follow her out.
"Are you alright?" Xue Nuofu inquired with concern.
Jia Luo looked at him, a trace of anger in her eyes, "I said, whatever happens, don't interrupt, and you agreed, but you didn't keep your word."
Xue Nuofu was montarily speechless, "I..."
"Old Xue was worried sothing would happen to you," Xiao Feng interjected to smooth things over, then shifted the topic, "How's Tie Wa doing?"
Jia Luo, still a bit irritated, replied, "It's about seventy percent successful, if he hadn't barged in, it would have been better."
"Could you explain what we just saw?" Xiao Feng continued to question.
Jia Luo thought for a mont and nodded, "The cause of his psychological issues is undoubtedly killing,
which mainly brings him guilt and unease, and addressing these psychological factors isn't too hard, just need to let him feel justified.
'Justified' is a phrase that can be split into two parts.
For one part, as long as he knows his actions won't face legal penalty, doesn't need to bear consequences, it's enough for peace of mind, but Tie Wa isn't in this category.
'Justified' is naturally easier to understand, it can even be said to be the main job of psychologists, helping patients find reasonable excuses even if the actions themselves don't comply with logic and law."
At this point, Jia Luo showed a hint of resignation, and then continued, "After trying various thods to no avail, I had no choice but to go the opposite way, using words to guide his thoughts, forcefully giving him a defense for his actions.
That's the reason you saw that scene outside the door.
If nothing unexpected happens later, he should be able to recover on his own. I suggest he enhances cultural learning, it will benefit him more."
Finishing, Jia Luo took an envelope from her pocket and placed it on the coffee table, saying, "Open it after I leave."
"Are you leaving now?" Xue Nuofu frowned.
Jia Luo tilted her head, puzzled, "Mr. Xue, is there sothing else?"
"Uh... I an, your neck injury needs treatnt, I can take you to the hospital."
"Thanks!" Jia Luo politely said, "But there's no need, this small wound doesn't require hospital visit."
Once finished, she waved goodbye, hands in her pockets, leaving gracefully and calmly.
After a while, Xiao Feng patted Xue Nuofu's shoulder, "Stop looking, she's long gone, open the envelope."
Xue Nuofu ca to his senses, picked up the envelope from the coffee table, opened it, and took out six hundred yuan.
"Nothing else?" Xiao Feng asked.
"Nothing." Xue Nuofu shook his head, puzzled, "She didn't charge the visit fee and even refunded last night's consultation fee, what does this an?"
"I guess..."
As Xiao Feng spoke, Xue Nuofu couldn't help but ask, "What?"
"Probably she's smitten by your charm."
Xue Nuofu: "..."
Pocketing the six hundred yuan, Xiao Feng increasingly felt that this Jia Luo was indeed a smart woman.
She knew full well she couldn't pry out who sent to find her.
Therefore, she used this thod to make sure... more accurately, she ensured Zhao Guo'an owed her a favor.
The move is simple but decidedly clever.
...
Near noon, Wang Lubo called, saying soone from the Chen Family wanted to invite him and Wang Lubo together for lunch, at none other than Xiao Feng's star-rated hotel.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng fell into thought.
I had given all credit to Wang Lubo at the ti, not wanting to get entangled too much with the Chen Family.
But now it seems the Chen Family isn't completely unaware, they surely know Wang Lubo alone couldn't have accomplished this, naturally deducing it involved .
But if the smart people from Chen Family can deduce this matter involves , can't they also see the intention behind letting Wang Lubo take all the credit?
Xiao Feng felt there's a ninety-nine percent chance the answer is no, aning the Chen Family is pretending not to understand the nuances deliberately.
