Chapter 1030: Perplexed and Smitten (90)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I heard that you’ve gone under the knife before your debut. Wow, your plastic surgeon must have terrible skills to have made you look like this even after surgery.”

“Hah, Fang Erlan, let me tell you, I won’t watch the television series that you’ve starred in or contribute to your viewership ratings, you scheming bitch. What you’ve done to Jing Yang will forever taint your life. Not only will I not watch your shows, I’ll also gather all the other people I know and we’ll completely boycott you and the productions you’re involved in. If no one watches your work, you’d better be prepared to be sacked by your studio!”

“I heard that you even tried to seduce our Yan Ge, you shameless slut. Why don’t you take a look in the mirror and ask yourself if you’re really worthy of him? Even a pig is better than you.”

...

There were many other similar comments.

Fang Erlan felt utterly dejected, though she knew that those netizens would definitely not have the guts to say those things to her face.

She switched off her mobile phone and placed it onto the table. She rested her arms on her head and stifled a yawn.

Xiao Chenyang returned home with a bag of food that he had just bought. He walked inside the house and placed it onto the coffee table.

“I didn’t know what you wanted to eat so I just bought these.”

She sat up straight and asked, “Where did you go?”

“Were you afraid that I wouldn’t come home?”

“I’d be glad if you didn’t,” she said casually. Sensing that he was glaring at her, she quickly added, “That way, I would be able to have a peaceful day.”

“What a forced explanation.” He sat down and opened a can of beer before taking two sips.

Feeling famished, Fang Erlan picked up a pair of chopsticks and began eating.

“I saw a woman exiting from the lobby together with the man from the apartment opposite. Seems like it was his girlfriend.”

“Impossible. Yan Ge doesn’t have a girlfriend.”

“How are you so sure? That woman is pretty and has a good figure,” he remarked, glaring at her.

Fang Erlan instantly knew who he was referring to. “How does she fare compared to me?”

Scanning her from head to toe, he answered, “Compared to you? You’re worlds apart from her in terms of looks, and you’re not as tall or as voluptuous as her. However, the difference is that she’s worth nothing to me while you’re priceless.”

She was initially a little upset to hear his harsh remarks about her appearance. However, her displeasure instantly vanished upon hearing the words he said afterward.

However, she thought about Yu Caiwei and Yan Ge exiting the lobby together and wondered to herself, Could it be that they have rekindled their feelings for each other?

It can’t be, Yan Ge is still rather repulsed by her.

She picked up her mobile phone and sent Yan Ge a text message.

“Did you get back together with Ms. Yu?”

He quickly replied, “You’re reading too much into things.”

She knew she had guessed correctly.

After deleting the text message, she continued eating. “You bought so much food, are you really not going to have any?”

“Nah, I bought them for you.”

She shot him a rare smile and said, “I have a huge appetite. I can polish off all of these.”

“Go ahead and eat all you can. I’ll buy you more if it’s not enough. I have money anyway.”

“...”

—

Yu Yiwei touched down at the airport of A City. Fan Shixin sent his subordinates to pick her up.

Once they entered Wei Ni Estate, Fan Shixin placed a contract in front of her and said, “Ms. Yu, please take a look. If there are no issues, please stamp your thumbprint onto the designated box.”

Yu Yiwei looked through the terms stated on the contract carefully and found that there were no issues. She was also pleased with the salary offered. Thus, she decided to sign it.

Although there was a single term in the contract that she was rather unhappy with, and that was that she had to be chaperoned wherever she went, she could understand the rationale behind it.

After signing the agreement, she asked, “Although you guys didn’t tell me explicitly who it was, I could already vaguely guess that it was him. Where is Mr. Jin now?”

“He hasn’t returned from work yet. You’ll have to wait for a while. Our Young Madam is at home now, though. You may have a chat with her first.”

“Please show me the way.”

Fan Shixin felt that she was giving off an aloof and standoffish aura.

He brought her to the living room of the mansion and headed upstairs to call An Xiaoning to come down.

An Xiaoning said calmly, “Ms. Yu, Qingyan is almost home now. However, I hope you’ll bear in mind what I’m going to tell you next and strictly adhere to it.”

“Please speak, Ms. An.”

“For now, Qingyan still doesn’t know that I’m aware of his condition. Thus, you mustn’t mention anything about me knowing the truth in front of him. That is, unless I decide to tell him one day or if he finds out by himself. Secondly, you must communicate with me frequently about the progress of his treatment. I believe that’ll help with improving his condition.”

“No problem, of course. I’ll have to communicate with Mr. Jin about the exact details of the treatment when I see him later.”

“That goes without saying. Ms. Yu, I’ve read that you graduated from a prestigious medical school in M Nation and went on to join the research center you’re currently working for a few years after you taught in school. I understand that dissociative identity disorder is a rare psychological disorder that only affects a small number of people in the world. Why have you decided to delve into this specific field?”

“Would you like to hear the truth, Ms. An?”

“Of course.”

“I think that all psychological disorders stem from a persistent inner demon that will vanish as long as the affected individual overcomes it. What sets dissociative identity disorder apart from the rest is that once the second personality surfaces, the other personality occupying the same body will automatically go into sleep mode. Hence, both personalities are two strikingly-different individuals occupying the same body. The trickier the problem, the more challenging it is, and I personally enjoy challenges. I dislike doing the same repetitive work that I don’t enjoy every single day. Besides, frankly speaking, I do want to do something meaningful now that I enjoy financial freedom and no longer have to worry about money. That’s all.”

“I truly admire and respect your attitude, Ms. Yu. I hope you’ll be able to make a change in Qingyan’s condition and help him recover gradually. We’ll be very grateful to you.”

“I’ll do my best, even if there’s only a one percent chance. This is the moral duty of a medical practitioner.”

....

When Jin Qingyan returned home, he had a long chat with Yu Yiwei. Despite not knowing the details, An Xiaoning was certain that they were discussing his illness and his condition.

By the time he headed upstairs, she was in the midst of a yoga session and practicing a challenging pose while dripping with sweat.

“How did Shixin explain about that woman to you?”

“Isn’t she your psychiatrist?”

“Is that what he told you?”

“Yes, he told me that you hired her to treat your insomnia as well as the random aches that you get in your body.”

He heaved a sigh of relief after hearing her answer. “Shixin has informed me about the people who tailgated your car this afternoon.”

“I guess the mastermind was just putting me to the test. I doubt this will be the end of it all.”

“Have you sent Pei Yi the simulation sketches?”

An Xiaoning got out of her pose and opened the drawer to retrieve two sketches, which she then handed to him.
