After a difficult period of understanding, Dr. Chen finally figured out what her problem was… what illness she had.
"Strictly speaking, this isn't really an illness," she said, "From what you've said, it seems more like a tendency in your speech."
Bai Ningning blinked: "So how should I adjust?"
"I can only suggest that you talk more, take the initiative to speak more," Dr. Chen said, "You usually talk too little, which reduces your chances for self-correction."
"Self-correction?"
"Yes, as long as you have a subjective need, you will unconsciously try to correct it. But the foundation of all this is that you need to talk more; otherwise, if you only say one or two sentences, you won't have the opportunity to adjust."
Bai Ningning pondered: "I understand, it's like in a shooting game; if you want to adjust the trajectory and feel, you have to shoot a few more times."
"…Although I'm not quite sure what you're talking about, as long as you understand, that's good."
After the consultation, Dr. Chen felt a sense of relief and quickly left the bedroom, returning to the living room.
"How did it go?" Qin Yue asked.
"She said she has a problem," Dr. Chen replied honestly, "When talking to people, she can never express her true feelings."
Qin Yue laughed: "She can't express her true feelings?"
"The problem is that what she expresses verbally is not her inner thoughts," Dr. Chen shrugged, "That's what she said."
"What do you think as a doctor?"
Hearing this, Dr. Chen took a sip of tea, sat up straight, and said seriously: "This situation is possible. When she speaks, it's a subconscious reaction, and afterward, she feels regret. In short, I tend to believe it's true."
She seems like a well-behaved girl; if she didn't have some issues, how could she be so arrogant?
Qin Yue curled her lips, thinking that on one hand, the problem might indeed exist. But on the other hand, Bai Ningning actively sought out her friend to be her psychologist, which must mean she regretted her attitude over the past few days and wanted to express her apologies through Dr. Chen.
"What did you tell her?"
"I suggested that she talk more and chat with people more often," Dr. Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "If it's convenient, you might also consider chatting with her more."
Qin Yue smiled gently: "Hmm, I know."
It's rare for the little green tea to have a moment of realization; she might as well help her out a bit.
Walking into the bedroom, she saw the girl sitting on the bed in very short pajamas, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Qin Yue approached the bed: "I heard you saw a doctor. How did it go? What's the situation?"
Bai Ningning wanted to say not to worry about her; it was just a personal matter, and she would feel bad for wasting your time and energy.
So, the girl lightly parted her lips: "Can you control it?"
Qin Yue's blood pressure rose.
Calm down, calm down, Dr. Chen said that the little green tea speaks insincerely; her heart doesn't mean this.
On the other hand, Bai Ningning's thoughts began to flow; she thought, Dr. Chen told her to talk more and take the initiative, and now was the opportunity.
"Qin Yue," she looked at the beautiful older sister by the bed, "Do you have a problem too?"
"…Yes." Qin Yue nodded with difficulty.
It's true that there is a problem, but asking this question feels somehow off.
"That's okay," Bai Ningning said in a calm tone,
Seriously, she said, "If you're sick, just get treated early."
Enduring, holding back, she knew that wasn't what she meant, and perhaps she didn't know the inside story.
Qin Yue tried to keep her tone calm: "Do you know why I got sick?"
"I don't know," Bai Ningning replied immediately, "but there must be a reason for getting sick."
Isn't that just stating the obvious? And the way she said it made it sound like it was my fault.
"At that time, it was my first time having feelings for someone, and my first time in a relationship," Qin Yue said to her, "because of a certain person, this experience became my shadow."
"A certain person," Bai Ningning pointed to herself, tilting her head innocently, "is it me?"
Qin Yue raised an eyebrow: "Who else could it be?"
Bai Ningning thought to herself that she must sincerely express her apologies. Although the matter was caused by the original owner, since she had inherited the original owner's fate, they should be in this together.
"I'm really sorry."
She tried to say these four words with emotion, but it sounded like a voice line from a card game.
Qin Yue's blood pressure shot up.
Calm down, she thought, that's not what she meant, give her another chance.
"Is that all you have to say, just 'sorry'?" Qin Yue said, suppressing her anger.
The girl was slightly taken aback, tilting her head: "What else should I say?"
Then Bai Ningning felt herself being lifted into the air; she was held in awe by Qin Yue and then forcefully thrown onto the bed.
The girl blinked calmly and continued to tilt her head: "Are you getting anxious again?"
"I'm not anxious," Qin Yue said with a sinister smile, "it's just that my summoner talent has been triggered."
With a deadly rhythm and thorn blades, her attack speed instantly broke the 2.5 limit, and she might have borrowed chemical frenzy from a neighboring game; the only two words to describe it were—invincible!
After five minutes of enduring, Bai Ningning's cold little face couldn't hold up anymore.
"Meow?"
"Meowing won't help; you can't surrender in the first twenty minutes, didn't you know?"
"But I play Dota."
"That's even better; Dota doesn't allow surrenders."
"..."
Actually, in custom games of Dota, you can surrender, but Bai Ningning didn't have the strength to say that.
Wuwuwu, why did it turn out like this?
Doctor Chen, I clearly did what you said, why is it like this, why?
Wash more?
......
The next morning, it was bright, but no one got up.
"Oh, wash the kelp, oh, wash the kelp~"
A slender arm stretched out from under the blanket, rubbing the little head on the pillow next to her: "Stop sleeping, your phone is ringing."
Bai Ningning groggily mumbled, "Don't you have hands? Can't you help me answer it?"
Qin Yue was almost angered awake by her words; if it weren't for having something to do at the company later, she would definitely start another round of battle.
However, she calmed down and helped Bai Ningning answer the phone, pressing the speaker button, and a boy's voice came through.
"Hello? Bai Ningning, the student council just told me you didn't show up for volunteer sign-in yesterday. Just a reminder, you can only take three days off in half a month; if you don't come today, that will be two days already."
Bai Ningning struggled to grab the phone: "I'll go today."
"Alright, remember to come early."
Beep, beep, beep.
Qin Yue sat on the pillow watching her: "So busy, calling just to find you?"
"Not really," Bai Ningning casually explained, "he's the class monitor, reminding me to do my GPA tasks."
"What GPA tasks? You still have to sign in?"
"Being a volunteer to help the freshmen," Bai Ningning had just gotten up, her blood sugar was a bit low, and she blurted it out without thinking, "I have to bring a few junior sisters."
Qin Yue's heart skipped a beat: "A few junior sisters?"
The words "junior sisters" were pronounced particularly heavily.
Bai Ningning thought this was a school matter, and explaining it would be complicated, so she wanted to gently advise her not to ask.
"Does it concern you?"
