Chapter 552: Chapter 526: The Great Big World
Xiao Qian showed her emotional side to Jia Xiufang, hugging her and speaking softly.
“You are the best mother in the world in my heart. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the ways of the world outside; I will help you guard and choose for you. I will make sure that you can live a worry-free and elegant life without being mistreated in the second half of your life.”
As Yu Minglang said, in the eyes of others, Jia Xiufang is just an ordinary woman, but in Xiao Qian’s heart, she is a great mother who has given her and Da Long an abundance of maternal love.
If Liao Fugui’s dad doesn’t meet Xiao Qian’s expectations, she would rather be the bad guy and pass him up than let her mother suffer by following him.
“You cheesy little girl, have some watermelon!” Jia Xiufang’s eyes got a little hot from her daughter’s confession, so she handed her a piece of watermelon as a cover-up. As she turned around to stay busy, tears fell from her eyes.
Now, when Xiao Qian sees watermelon, she thinks of Yu Minglang and the romance between them. This pure fruit has been given a not-so-pure meaning, and it is very sweet to eat.
Jia Xiufang chatted with her daughter for a while, and then Xiao Qian called her eldest brother to let him know she was going back to school.
Jia Xiufang prepared a bag of food for Xiao Qian and nagged her with various trivial matters, then suddenly clutched her stomach in pain halfway through their conversation.
“What’s wrong, Mom?”
“My stomach hurts a little; it’s been like this for a few days.”

“I’ll take you to the hospital for a check-up. Why didn’t you say anything earlier?” Xiao Qian could tell that the area her mother was covering seemed to be either an appendage or an appendix.
“It’s not a big deal; I’ll just get some medicine from the pharmacy later.”
“No, I’ll tell my eldest brother not to send the car over, and I’ll go back a day later.” Xiao Qian was about to make a call when another call came in.
“Boss Qian, it’s Qiuqiu.”
“Qiuqiu, what’s up?”
“Jingjing’s emotions have been very stable lately, and I’ve reduced the time and frequency of our meetings, as you suggested. We haven’t seen each other for a week, and her mother said she hasn’t been looking for me either. Do you think it’s time for the next step in her treatment?”
This was the agreement between Xiao Qian and Qiuqiu. As long as Jingjing could get over her dependence on Qiuqiu, Xiao Qian was to go back and seal Jingjing’s memory.
“Can we do it another day?” Xiao Qian glanced at her mother, feeling uneasy about her health.
“But Jingjing’s mother said she’s been having a lot of nightmares lately, waking up in the middle of the night. You said that if this happens, we can’t delay the treatment. If we wait too long, her emotions may fluctuate, and I remember you said that if she loses control again, we’d have to repeat the whole process.”
Qiuqiu remembered every word Xiao Qian had said, and he took Jingjing’s matter very seriously.
Xiao Qian was in a dilemma. When nothing was happening, everything was calm, but when something happened, everything came at once.
After hearing her daughter’s phone call, Jia Xiufang quickly waved her hand. “Qian’er, you hurry back. I’m fine! If you don’t believe me, I’ll go to the hospital this afternoon. It’s just a matter of getting a number; it’s not that big of a deal. Even if you’re not here, I can handle it myself.”
Jingjing’s condition took Xiao Qian a long time to stabilize, and now was the most critical moment. This was the best time for treatment, and if they missed this opportunity, they would have to wait a long time, not knowing what accidents might happen during the process.
After hesitating, Xiao Qian decided to see Jingjing first.
“Mom, you must go to see the doctor this afternoon, understand? I’ll check your results remotely by phone. I’ll let Ming Lang’s eldest sister-in-law know about it, and you can go to her hospital for a check-up. She’ll accompany you throughout the process, and if there’s anything wrong, inform me right away, and I’ll come back as soon as I’ve dealt with my patient.”
“Oh, I know, you’re making a fuss over nothing. It’s not a big deal; I’ll just take some anti-inflammatory medicine and hang a few bags of fluid. Hurry up and go!” Jia Xiufang pushed Xiao Qian out of the door, and as soon as she closed the door, she started to sweat.
It’s been hurting quite a bit recently; I really should check it out.
Xiao Qian called her eldest sister-in-law again, explaining the situation, and her sister-in-law told her not to worry and to go back to school. She would take care of Jia Xiufang’s matter. It was convenient to have a caring sister-in-law in the future.
After arranging everything, Xiao Qian returned to school, where Qiuqiu had been waiting for a long time.
Xiao Qian didn’t even have time to take her stuff back to her dormitory before going straight to Jingjing’s house to start her final step of treatment.
With the previous groundwork and the fact that Xiao Qian had just treated Hu Meijing not long ago, the deep hypnosis treatment for Jingjing went very smoothly.
Xiao Qian created a whole new fairy tale world for Jingjing, where there was no harm and fear, allowing her to have a fresh start.
Modifying Jingjing’s internal world directly affected her deepest fears because she had been abducted and severely abused during the abduction. So Xiao Qian implanted new memories for her, and after completing all these steps, Jingjing fell into a deep sleep.
“Dr. Chen, will she be alright when she wakes up?” Jingjing’s parents asked Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian nodded.
“Due to a series of previous treatments, she has become somewhat blurry about that part of her memory. Today’s treatment will be our last.”
“We are really thankful to you for this. Please, accept this.” Jingjing’s father handed Xiao Qian a heavy envelope.
Xiao Qian declined.
“She and I met because of the abduction. She saved me once, and I saved her in return; we’re even.”
She loved money, but she wouldn’t take just any money.
“Ah, thank you so much! It’s a pity that when she wakes up, we will be leaving this city, and we won’t meet you again. I think Jingjing would really like to thank you personally for giving her a second chance at life.”
Jingjing’s mother sincerely thanked Xiao Qian.
If it weren’t for Xiao Qian, they couldn’t imagine what kind of life their daughter would be living now.
However, when Jingjing wakes up, she won’t see Xiao Qian and won’t be able to thank this psychologist who has given her a new life. It’s a bit of a shame.
“People’s memories aren’t that easy to change. What I’m doing for her now is merely making her temporarily forget some things. In order to make her forget this part of her life forever, everything she has encountered while sick, including the clothes you wore, the furniture you used, and even the food she thought was delicious, must be sealed away and never appear in front of her again. That way, she won’t remember. As for me, the psychologist, it’s best for us to never see each other again.”
For Xiao Qian, Jingjing is someone who exists between a friend and a patient, and her never seeing Jingjing again is for the girl’s protection.
The same goes for Qiuqiu. As a milestone figure for Jingjing to accept another gender, Qiuqiu must also disappear forever. When Jingjing wakes up, she will go with her parents to another city, and when she wakes up again, it will be a brand-new life. Meeting Qiuqiu again will be impossible.
The world is small, and you never know when you’ll meet someone who makes your heart race around a corner.
Yet, the world is also vast; once you turn away and look back, that person is no longer in the same place.
Although it was a very successful treatment, a silent sigh remained in Xiao Qian’s heart.
Not for herself, but for Qiuqiu. Just as Qiuqiu was falling for Jingjing, he had to cut off his feelings to give her a better life.
