Love in a mental hospital

Chapter 45 Postoperative conversations and meetings
  After feeling a little relieved, Gu Ran quietly left the operating room.

During the operation, the doctor will take the initiative to put himself into a deep sleep, and a little noise will not affect other people who are still in a psychological shadow.

Besides, he barely made any sound, and the door was specially made.

Letting a doctor who has emerged from the psychological shadow continue to lie on the operating bed may be able to maintain absolute silence, but this may be detrimental to the doctor's psychological condition.

In the early years, the regulations did not allow early departure, which caused a doctor to suddenly go crazy and hit another doctor to death with an instrument.

Arriving in the corridor, Gu Ran took another deep breath and then turned into the observation room.

"Teacher." He apologized slightly.

Zhuang Jing smiled and asked softly: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"Fortunately."

Zhuang Jing nodded: "Go out for a walk, change your mood, and come back after the operation is over."

Gu Ran nodded and left the observation room.

After about a minute or so, Chen Ke whispered to Zhuang Jing: "Teacher Zhuang Jing, I'm going out for a while."

"Give him a consultation." Although Chen Ke didn't give a reason, Zhuang Jing could guess it.

"Okay." Chen Ke was a little embarrassed.

Zhuang Jing did not look away from the operating room. After Chen Ke left quietly, she glanced at the door of the observation room.

Chen Ke came to the corridor, glanced left and right, then walked to the glass and looked at the atrium on the first floor. Gu Ran was sitting on a bench on the indoor grass.

She went downstairs and poured two glasses of ice water.

When he sent it over, he found that Gu Ran, who was empty-handed just now, already had a glass of water in his hand.

"Handsome guys are really popular." She said with a smile, trying to ease Gu Ran's mood, "My glass of water came at the wrong time."

"No, it's just the right time." The cup the nurse poured for him in Gu Ran's hand had already been finished in one gulp.

Chen Ke handed him the water and sat down with another glass of water in both hands.

There are several bamboo trees next to the benches. There are Japanese-style floor lamps at the roots of the bamboos. The lights are also on during the day, giving people a sense of warmth.

Several beams of light are like sharp arrows piercing the lawn from the outdoors. There is a feeling of hope piercing the darkness, which makes people want to catch the light with their hands.

Gu Ran did the same. He spread out a hand and let the light fall on his palm.

Chen Ke took a look and found that his hands were big, with slender fingers and clear joints.

"Your hands are beautiful." She praised.

Gu Ran laughed and said: "It's just an operation, so there's no need for you to treat me like a baby who can get compliments even if he farts."

"You're not clear in your head, are you? You don't usually use this kind of metaphor."

"So don't take anything I say to heart."

"It seems you have something to say to me."

"There is a problem."

Chen Ke smiled and took a sip of water.

"It's still about Qiao Yiming," Gu Ran looked at her and asked, "I chatted with him for a while that day, and he said he would pursue you for two years, bring you breakfast, treat you to milk tea, and send you flowers from time to time."

"Well, what's the problem?" Chen Ke acted like a young female teacher facing a young student.

"I have no problem with any of this. The problem is that he invited you to watch a movie. If you didn't want to fall in love, why did you agree? Then you invited him to watch a movie in return?"

"Is that what he told you?" Chen Ke turned his head.

Without waiting for Gu Ran to respond, she looked away again and smiled helplessly.

She said: "The next words may sound like quibbles, but they are all true."

Gu Ran smiled.

She suddenly looked at Gu Ran again and reminded him: "I originally didn't plan to mention anything in the past and only look forward from now on, but because you are now a 'baby who can get praise even for farting', I reluctantly did so. I'll rummage through the cabinets, make a fuss, and show you the past."

"Essayist!" Gu Ran snapped his fingers.

"Yes." Chen Ke smiled and nodded.

Then she started remembering.

"The first time he invited me to watch a movie, I still remember it clearly," she said.

“On a Friday close to Christmas, the week was over and the holiday was approaching, so our girls’ dormitory planned to go watch a movie together.

“When I arrived, I found out that it was him who planned it, and that he was in the dormitory where he was.

"It's not good for me to leave directly - sometimes dealing with interpersonal relationships can help you get rid of troublesome interpersonal relationships. Can your baby brain understand this?"

"My belly was injured, and my head was just stepped on. It didn't affect my IQ."

"I don't want to talk about my story now, I want to hear your story."

"Aren't we going to have a dinner together tonight? I can be your side dish then."

Chen Ke smiled, and his smile had the charm of a gentle and mature woman.

"Then I'll go ahead," she said, "He invited two dormitories to watch movies, and I don't like to owe favors, so I found an opportunity to invite him back, and made up his mind to never watch movies together again, but then..."

She paused for a moment, as if she was hit in the face by a strong puff of dust while rummaging through boxes and cabinets.

"When Feifei and I - my best friend in the same dormitory - are watching movies together, we always run into Qiao Yiming."

"There is a traitor in your dormitory?"

"Yeah, but I'm embarrassed to break up."

She continued: "When we got there, he asked us which show we were watching. Before I could recover from the confusion and anger of the encounter, he had already bought the same show, as well as a large portion of popcorn and a large glass of Coke. , after watching the movie, I bought movie peripherals and gave them to us by force.

“At that time, my best friend saw his generosity and thought he was pretty good. Although she didn’t encourage him too much, she still had some intention of bringing us together under the circumstances, so she accepted the gift for me.

“Then I just have to keep asking back.

"This kind of thing happened about four or five times in two years, and there were eight or nine times in total."

As if to add a sentence to his memories, Chen Ke took a sip of water.

After swallowing the water, she continued.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with Qiao Yiming. That's why I agreed to him after graduation. But after the two of us got together, he had to review the posts I posted on Moments. At a psychology graduation dinner, there were both men and women, and he was a little angry. ;

“When I call and send messages, although he doesn’t check directly, he always asks who it is.

"Especially, I am used to being alone. When I am alone, I like to read and study alone without any interruption. At this time, I will not answer the phone or reply to messages.

"Every time I tell him in advance that I am going to read, but he still thinks that I am not necessarily reading.

"Of course, I also know that there are couples who get along like this, but for me personally, I feel very tired. Can you understand?"

"I understand completely." Gu Ran also didn't like to be disturbed when he was reading a book seriously.

He will feel distracted. If he reads less books or spends less time thinking, he will feel that he will be surpassed by others and unable to enter the {Sea of ​​Tranquility}.

Entering the {Sea of ​​Tranquility} was a goal he would never allow to fail.

If there is a time in life when one has to fight hard, for Gu Ran, entering the {Sea of ​​Tranquility} is it.

This may be the same for Chen Ke.

"Later, I discovered that I had a heart problem and wanted to stay in Jinghai. In this case, I simply broke up with him and we all went our separate ways - this is the whole story."

"I haven't understood what kind of lover he is in two years. You are a bit unqualified as a psychological counselor." Gu Ran said.

"How can there be two years?" Chen Ke stretched out her legs, and the light shone on her knees. "Except for delivering breakfast, milk tea, and saying a few words while watching movies, for the whole two years, I almost spent the whole time reading, just like you. .”

"I'm different. I didn't spend time. I got into Jinghai all because of my talent."

Chen Ke smiled.

Gu Ran took a sip of water and felt that he was bragging a little too much.

After a while, he said: "Between men and women, some things can only be discovered after they are together, and then they can truly confirm whether they are suitable for each other.

"Before we got together, or before we got married, few people used violence or cold violence. After we got together, whether our true nature was exposed or our love disappeared, it was just different."

"Ah."

“Throw away things you don’t need as soon as possible, don’t leave them there to gather dust.”

"Okay, throw it away." Chen Ke put down the paper cup and covered his face with his hands, "Hypnosis: enter the keyword 'Qiao Yiming', select all, delete, enter the recycle bin, and empty the recycle bin."

She put down her hands and smiled brightly at Gu Rannv.

"Are you kidding me?" Gu Ran asked.

"who are you?"

"Because Qiao Yiming and I met, did you delete it too?"

"Yes." Chen Ke picked up the paper cup and took a sip with a smile.

Gu Ran was a little envious: "I also wanted to learn hypnosis."

"Boys are all interested in hypnosis." Chen Ke said.

There is no way to refute this.

After a pause, he said, "I'm sorry, I've made you suffer."

"Are you truly sorry?"

"Can this be fake?" Gu Ran found it funny.

"Since you feel you owe me, may I also ask you a question?"

"I don't know if the operation is over." Gu Ran raised his head and looked in the direction of the operating room.

"It's not over yet. Just sit here and rest."

"I think it's more like an interrogation."

"Let me ask you," Chen Ke asked directly, "do you have a girlfriend?"

"Do you think I have this question?" Gu Ran asked back.

"It doesn't look like it. I haven't sent messages to anyone during work hours, nor have I received messages from anyone. No, I seem to receive messages occasionally?"

Gu Ran was stunned by what she said. Apart from the operator and verification code, he had never received any information.

The next moment he remembered, Chen Ke should be referring to the several face-to-face chats he and Su Qing had on their mobile phones.

"No," he said.

"It's not on the surface, but what's hidden?"

"The ones I hid on the hard drive were not my girlfriends, they were everyone's girlfriends."

"You're quite generous." Chen Ke teased him with a smile, "In other words, if you don't have a girlfriend in the real sense, is there anyone you like?"

"This is the second question, it's my turn - do you watch pornographic movies?"

Gu Ran thought she would give up, but Chen Ke was silent for a while and replied: "I have seen it, for the purpose of curing the disease."

Gu Ran said "Oh" apologetically, remembering her heartache of not being able to get close to others.

"Is it my turn?" Chen Ke smiled, blushing a little because of the question just now.

"Why are you so persistent?" Gu Ran stayed away from her, "You like me? Sorry, I have never dated a girlfriend, so I want to find someone who has never dated a boyfriend. I am not discriminating against you, it's just that I have a glass heart. , is a virgin who cannot see the reality clearly and lives in the old society."

"." Chen Ke didn't know what to say for a while.

"Very good." She could only agree dryly, and then continued: "Do you have anyone you like?"

"There are a lot of people who like her, but there are probably none who like her." Gu Ran wasn't sure either.

"That doesn't matter."

"It doesn't matter? You don't really like me, do you?"

"Dr. Gu Ran, as a psychological counselor, can't you tell whether I like you or not?" Chen Ke laughed and then parroted, "You are a bit unqualified."

Gu Ran couldn't help but laugh.

"Cheers." He held out the paper cup.

Chen Ke clinked glasses of ice water with him and said, "I haven't had any wine." "Me too."

Two toast.

Gu Ran was bored after one sip. Chen Ke originally wanted to take a small sip, but seeing him like this, he didn't leave the paper cup with his lips and drank it all in one go.

Gu Ran saw that she was drinking hard and smiled: "I'm thirsty, you don't have to be like this."

"Sacrifice your life to accompany a gentleman, huh." After drinking too much ice water, Chen Ke felt that his throat was a little uncomfortable, so he cleared his throat.

Gu Ran took out a candy.

"Where did it come from?" Chen Ke asked subconsciously.

"The nurse gave it to me."

Chen Ke took back his hand that was about to take it, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Then I can't have it."

Gu Ran also smiled and didn't say anything. When he came to his senses, he felt that it was indeed rude to give away something that someone else had given to him with care.

The two of them stopped talking and sat on a bench on the indoor grass.

Soon, the announcement came that the operation was over.

They stood up at the same time, holding paper cups from which they drank water.

Chen Ke was walking in front and suddenly heard Gu Ran calling her.

"Chen Ke."

"Huh?" Chen Ke turned around, with a face reminiscent of a quiet and classic beauty, slightly confused.

Gu Ran stood in the grass, a beam of light shining on his shoulder.

He looked serious and said with a slight smile: "We have really entered the sea of ​​tranquility and become psychological counselors."

Chen Ke lowered his head and couldn't help laughing.

Then, she raised her head and smiled: "Well, yes!"

Chen Ke couldn't describe that feeling, so he could only think of a metaphor that was very unsuitable for the two of them but very appropriate -

On the second day of their wedding, a man and a woman were sitting together for dinner. The man suddenly said to the woman, "We are already married."

The woman smiled and served the man some food and said, "Eat yours!"

Chen Ke felt Gu Ran's innocence and a sense of tacit understanding that although they had never met or knew each other, they were working together on the same thing at the same time in different schools and different study rooms.

Chen Ke raised his hand and clenched his fist.

"It doesn't matter now," she laughed.

"It was a little embarrassing at the time." Gu Ran smiled and bumped fists with her.

"We will continue to work hard together!" Chen Ke said.

"Ok!"

The two returned to the observation room. Zhuang Jing looked at Gu Ran. The trance and residual feeling in him disappeared. It seemed that Chen Ke's psychological consultation was going well.

Looking at Chen Ke, he is also smiling. Is he satisfied with his consultation, or has he also been treated?
  In the operating room, the patient and the bed were pushed away, and Tong Ling, Su Qing and others were walking out of the operating room one after another.

After a while, they walked into the observation room.

"Just a brief report." Zhuang Jing sat on the chair with her hands on her abdomen and her fingers crossed.

Tong Ling considered her words and spoke after three seconds:
  "In the deserted grassland, we first followed the direction pointed by Gu Ran's [Cranked Shepherd's Staff], and met the green-haired nightmare on the way.

“After the nightmare was shattered, we followed the black moth again and found the path once again, entering the source.

“The source is a spider nest and the silk is white sheets.

“At first, we thought the source was a female spider with the patient’s face, but after trying to defeat it once, the psychological shadow did not disappear, and the female spider was resurrected.

"Later, based on the medical records, the blood-stained white sheets were found, and the source was eliminated."

Tong Ling didn't say anything about Gu Ran's 'life map therapy'. It was considered a trade secret and could not be mentioned in front of the nurse until Zhuang Jing knew about it.

After listening to Tong Ling's report, Zhuang Jing nodded and didn't seem to care.

This was a completely minor operation for her.

Then she asked with a smile: "Where has Gu Ran gone?"

"Barren grassland." Su Qing said.

"He was disemboweled by a white-haired nightmare and died in pain, poor Mr. Gu." He Qingyan wiped the corners of her eyes with her fingertips, as if there were tears there.

Fake!

Gu Ran said nothing. Whether the cause of his death was caesarean section or a kick to the head is currently unknown and remains to be explored.

"You have to work hard," Zhuang Jing said to Gu Ran, "Lv Lu's condition is not serious. The first team did not protect you, but Su Qing and Xiaoyan are here, and you are stumped by the white-haired nightmare."

Here Gu Ran must speak up to defend himself.

Su Qing and He Qingyan, one said that it would be good for him to die, and the other just sent him to die.

Gu Ran straightened his back, but before he could speak, Su Qing said, "We didn't help him. He asked for it, saying that it would be good for him to die."

"I still had a good fight with the white-haired nightmare. I didn't rely on [professional cards] and [monsters]." He Qingyan said.

"Is that so?" Zhuang Jing asked Gu Ran.

".Just treat it like that."

Zhuang Jing laughed, probably guessing the specific situation.

"Okay," she stood up, "This is the end of the postoperative meeting. The postoperative report will be handed in next Wednesday. Su Qing and He Qingyan each wrote a 500-word review for me."

"Why?" He Qingyan was puzzled and dissatisfied.

"I'm doing it for his own good." Su Qing felt that she had a reason.

The two looked at Zhuang Jing, who had not yet spoken.

"Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah!" Gu Ran applauded alone.

Even though everyone looked at him, his expression remained unchanged. No, on the contrary, he showed a look that was not afraid of power.

Su Qing smiled at him without emotion.

He Qingyan raised her index finger with a smile and breathed out lightly, meaning: I've scratched your itch.

Zhuang Jing looked at them with a peaceful smile, and then smiled even deeper, looking very satisfied.

She walked toward the observation room door.

The positions of everyone changed with her like water, and Su Qing and He Qingyan naturally surrounded Gu Ran.

"Teacher Zhuang Jing, I have something to report to you alone!" Gu Ran, a fox who pretends to be powerful, immediately followed the tiger.

The excuses I gave were impeccable.

Chen Ke seemed to be talking to himself or chatting with Su Qing: "I am becoming more and more curious about what happens in the shadow of my mind."

"I'm curious too." Even Jiang Qi, who also entered the psychological shadow, said the same.

"Has Junior Brother Gu been bullied?" Wei Hong's suspicion was correct!
  "Everyone go change clothes." Tong Ling directed.

Gu Ran followed Zhuang Jing out of the ward area without going to the office. Zhuang Jing took him to the animal area.

There are some common animals here, chickens, ducks, rabbits, parrots, two deer, and several monkeys.

On the way there, Gu Ran told him about his cell phone.

Regarding this matter, Zhuang Jing only said: "Isn't that great?"

She picked up the vegetable leaves and fed them to the rabbit. The rabbit tore the vegetable leaves fiercely.

"Xiao Ran, do you know that rabbits don't actually eat carrots, and they can't eat more vegetables with water, they mainly eat hay."

"Is that so? I don't understand this yet."

"So don't trust books, not even textbooks. Books are written by people, and it is also decided by people which articles can be used as teaching materials. People cannot trust everything."

Gu Ran didn't know what Zhuang Jing wanted to say.

Zhuang Jing looked at him with a smile: "Don't understand what I said?"

With the movements of her body, the position of the vegetable leaves was pulled up so that the rabbit could not eat it. She could only use the cage to stand up, but she could only lick the vegetable leaves and could not get them into the rabbit's mouth.

"I don't understand." Gu Ran shook his head.

“Don’t completely believe in Life Map Therapy, and don’t completely believe me.”

"I can do it if I don't believe in 'Life Map Therapy', but I can't do it if I don't believe you." Gu Ran affirmed.

Everything he said in front of Zhuang Jing had a sense of uncertainty as a student faces a teacher. Even if one plus one equals something, he needed Zhuang Jing to say 'two' before he could be sure that the answer was 'two'.

But he said this with certainty.

Zhuang Jing looked at him and then smiled brightly.

When the rabbit finally bit the vegetable leaves, she let go and allowed the rabbit to take all the leaves.

"Go back." She clapped her hands, "You should still have a lot to do."

Gu Ran didn't leave, he asked: "Is there anything wrong with the 'Life Map Therapy'? Is there anything you are hiding from me?"

Instead of holding it in your heart and making random thoughts, it's better to ask directly.

"Su Qing's father wrote down the 'Life Map Therapy' in the form of a fable. When he gave it to you, the therapy was not yet complete. This was its problem.

"Su Qing's father is very proud of the therapy. He didn't even tell Su Qing and I. Of course, it's not because he couldn't bear it. It's just the childishness of a husband and father who wants to show off to us after he perfects it."

Gu Ran didn't expect this to happen.

He quickly said: "I'll return that letter."

"No need now." Zhuang Jing interrupted him, "After you perfect it, bring it to me. This is the subject I gave you."

Gu Ran felt passionate about finding his target.

"Don't worry, I will definitely finish it!"

"As for whether I have hidden anything from you," Zhuang Jing deliberately thought for a moment, "that's a lot. I don't know where to start at the moment. Anyway, it will be a long time. I will tell you slowly in the future."

"Is there any conspiracy in it?" Gu Ran asked tentatively.

"conspiracy?"

"You or Su Qing are sick, and I happen to have a matching liver or something?"

Zhuang Jing smiled, paused, and seemed to think over Gu Ran's words again, and her smile deepened.

She said with a smile: "Don't worry about your liver, and don't worry about your kidneys. Amelia Su and I are in good health!"

"Does that mean there's no conspiracy?" Gu Ran also laughed, "As long as there's no conspiracy, you can hide as many things from me as you like, I don't mind."

"I don't have the obligation to report everything to you, right?" Zhuang Jing teased.

Gu Ran scratched his head, a little shy after saying something wrong.

"Go back," Zhuang Jing said, "Don't worry about the surgery. It's the first time for everyone. Finding ways to take good care of Zhao Wenjie and organize outdoor group therapy activities is what you should do seriously now."

"Yes, got it!"

"Private Diary": Friday, August [-]th.

A day of sudden enlightenment.

I always feel like I'm on a embarking expedition ship and finally take the first step in life.

Aunt Jing, wearing a white coat and feeding rabbits, looked like a holy mother.

----

"Doctor's Diary":
  Lu Lu's source was a blood-stained white sheet. In order to eat that sheet and destroy that memory, her heart turned into a spider monster.

I couldn't help but wonder: Is the psychological shadow just a fantasy in the mind, or is it the most terrifying truth in the world?

I want to whiten the sheets of the world.
