Chapter 288 - 288 288 Xuan Lengyues Multiple Personalities
Chapter 288: Chapter 288 Xuan Lengyue’s Multiple Personalities Chapter 288: Chapter 288 Xuan Lengyue’s Multiple Personalities Su Mi paused.
Like? Her… and Shen Zhongshuang?
Su Mi flipped her curly hair by her ear, smiling with a captivating allure.
“You don’t understand, sometimes just liking someone isn’t enough.”
“Besides, I like you too, Doctor Lu.”
Su Mi was the kind of striking beauty who was bold and passionate, her exotic charm coupled with a lively and fiery personality, making her irresistibly beautiful.
Such a beauty, Doctor Lu had only ever seen on television!
Being playfully teased and confessed to by Su Mi, Doctor Lu’s face turned completely red!
“If I were in school with Doctor Shen, he would be the teacher’s favorite, and I would be the teacher’s troublemaker. I don’t think we’re very compatible.”
Su Mi concealed the slight disappointment and melancholy in her eyes.
“Besides, he doesn’t like me. He deserves someone better, definitely not me.”
Come on, she’s currently living a dangerous life as a mafia princess; she never dared to dream of a genius doctor like Shen Zhongshuang, who was as bright and clear as a moonlit night!
Su Mi ruffled Doctor Lu’s hair and said, “I’m off now. I’ll see you next time.”
“Aren’t you going to invite Doctor Shen for dinner?”
“I said that, but he doesn’t know. What’s wrong with us beauties being a bit temperamental?”
Su Mi was in pain all over and didn’t want to wait here for Shen Zhongshuang. What if she saw his face and had some improper thoughts…
Zuo Wanjun treated her so well, and Qingwu and Shen Shaojia regarded her as a friend too. Su Mi smiled faintly.
She sighed and whispered bitterly to herself, “I can’t be ungrateful.”
Someone like her, how could she repay kindness with cruelty and drag Shen Zhongshuang down with her into the abyss?
The Shen Family was so good to her, yet she was thinking of dragging Shen Zhongshuang down… she was truly heartless!
Su Mi ran her hands irritably through her long hair and made a decisive decision.
“From now on, I won’t come to this hospital anymore. I’ll just go to any random hospital; I’m leaving now. Next time, I’ll treat you to a meal!”
“Ms. Su… goodbye?”
Su Mi grabbed her bag and left in a hurry, as if someone was chasing her.
…
Chen Jianhong’s office.
Chen Jianhong looked at the woman sitting opposite him.
Xuan Lengyue wore an old-fashioned floor-length cheongsam and a string of white pearls, her entire presence exuding a serene charm, as comforting as a spring breeze in March.
Chen Jianhong smiled, “Ms. Xuan, nice to see you again. Don’t worry. Ms. Shen is currently studying medicine with me. You can consider her as my intern.”
Qingwu subtly kicked Chen Jianhong under the table.
He really considered himself her mentor.
Chen Jianhong’s medical skills, compared to Qingwu’s, made it hard to determine who was teaching whom, yet it certainly served as a reasonable excuse.
Xuan Lengyue’s gaze was gentle, with a touch of motherly affection in her eyes as she looked at Qingwu.
“Ms. Shen is truly smart. If I had such an intelligent and beautiful daughter, I can’t imagine how happy I would be.”
“I also have a very lovely daughter.”
Qingwu was surprised and looked at Xuan Lengyue, “You, you have a daughter too?”
Xuan Lengyue nodded, her delicate brows carrying a hint of tenderness, her voice soft with a Southern accent.
“Yes, I have a very lovely daughter, but I don’t know where she is. I searched at home but couldn’t find her.”
“I’m very afraid they’ll say I imagined it. Ms. Shen, my mental state isn’t very good. I don’t want my father to worry.”
Qingwu looked at Xuan Lengyue and suddenly said, “Aunt Xuan, do you remember what my sister ate the last time we went to the manor?”
“The last time? Miss Shaojia ate walnut cakes. That was the first time we met.”
Qingwu nodded knowingly, her gaze complex.
“Aunt Xuan, do you remember Pei Jundu?”
Xuan Lengyue seemed slightly surprised, but seeing Qingwu’s expression was just routine questioning, she also began to ponder.
“I remember, but we’ve been apart for so many years. Ms. Shen has an engagement with President Pei, so she must have met him as well, right? Is he doing well now?”
“Pretty well.”
Xuan Lengyue nodded, sighed lightly, and lowered her eyes softly, “That’s good.”
“Previously, Aunt Xuan showed me a photo of Grandpa Xuan when he was young. Grandpa Xuan was very handsome.”
“Did that happen? I seem to have forgotten.”
The first time Qingwu and Shen Shaojia went to the Xuan Family manor, Shen Shaojia didn’t eat walnut cakes, but obviously, Xuan Lengyue had forgotten this.
Qingwu didn’t ask further and handed Chen Jianhong a medical report.
“Just follow this report for the checkup, Aunt Xuan. Goodbye for now.”
Xuan Lengyue thanked them politely, picked up the report, and draped a lace shawl over her shoulders before gracefully leaving the office.
Chen Jianhong asked, “Why did you order a special examination?”
“I believe a special examination for dissociative phenomena is necessary.”
Chen Jianhong was taken aback, clicking his tongue, “You suspect… she has dissociative identity disorder? But I’ve never noticed it all these years!”
Qingwu said seriously, “Her two personalities are very similar, but their accent and cognitive levels differ greatly.”
Qingwu recalled every time she met Xuan Lengyue.
She took out a piece of paper, “It’s tentatively assumed that she has two personalities, one speaks Jiangnan dialect, and the other has a Beijing accent. One prefers fitted cheongsams, the other wears the old-fashioned floor-length ones. These two personalities are too similar, so you didn’t notice, and that’s perfectly normal.”
Xuan Lengyue’s memory showed discrepancies.
“The medical records state that she has severe amnesia and has experienced dizziness and tinnitus multiple times, occasionally leading to fainting and hospitalization.”
“But every time she stays in the hospital for a few days, she gets better. I think it’s because one personality is sick, but the other isn’t.”
Chen Jianhong was still a bit shocked.
“Dissociative identity disorder typically arises under significant stress. Ms. Xuan never had such an opportunity!”
From Chen Jianhong’s interactions with Xuan Lengyue, the Xuan Family had protected her very well. How could such a major incident occur to cause a personality split?
Qingwu said indifferently, “There is! She said she has a daughter.”
“What does that imply? Can’t it be one personality’s imagination?”
“No, she indeed has a daughter, so it probably stems from a traumatic childbirth experience that led to dissociation.”
Qingwu sighed.
“I guess her primary personality knows she has a child but lost it. So there had to be a secondary personality to make her forget everything.”
Chen Jianhong was full of questions.
“You mean she really has a daughter? How come I didn’t know!”
Qingwu retorted, somewhat exasperated, “You’re not her daughter’s father, how would you know?”
Chen Jianhong widened his eyes, “Neither are you! How do you know?”
Qingwu said casually, “Isn’t it normal for me to know more than you?”
Qingwu collected her belongings and left, Chen Jianhong called after her.
“Remember to come back and discuss the treatment plan with me! Where are you going?”
Qingwu’s voice had a note of light-hearted excitement.
“To have dinner with my friend and see if Xuan Jing is really dead.”
Chen Jianhong was even more puzzled. Wasn’t Pei Jue Qingwu’s fiancé? How did he become a friend?
“Is that what young people nowadays call their boyfriends?”
