Chapter 488 Extra

Let’s go back to May 5th.

A lot happened around the world that day.

A top international actress was involved in a plane crash.

The CEO of Sunrise Films was in a car accident.

The crew of "Blair Witch" which had officially started filming failed to wait for their producer.

A mysterious wealthy man who was on vacation in the south of France slipped and fell into the swimming pool.

Air France lost one aircraft.

This is an era of information explosion. Anything that happens in any country can appear in front of netizens in the form of news through the Internet.

The media is like a hyena with a keen sense of smell, and can always keenly identify which news can trigger public opinion.

So, when Su Lingxi appeared at the airport, no matter whether she walked out or was pushed out while lying flat, they all chose to rush forward and took pictures of her face which was covered with bloodstains due to abrasions.

To be honest, even though more than half a year has passed since the accident, Su Lingxi still feels unhappy whenever he thinks about it.

Whether the photo is good-looking or not is one thing, she just simply hates these people for exposing their most vulnerable side to the world.

This behavior is extremely disgusting.

"So, what you mean is that you don't like to expose your weaknesses in front of strangers, right?" The short-haired woman sitting opposite Su Lingxi asked at the right time.

"I think so." Although she had a kind and friendly temperament, it was difficult for Su Lingxi to completely relax in front of her.

This is not only because she is the owner of this clinic, Melinda Bernanke, the most famous psychotherapist in Los Angeles, but also because of Su Lingxi's subconscious defensive psychology.

"Oh, is this topic making you uncomfortable?" Melinda said, exploring Su Lingxi's expression. "In fact, Nicole, our conversation here is absolutely confidential. There is no need for you to take a defensive posture - try to relax a little, okay? If you don't want to continue talking about this topic, we can talk about your childhood."

Her attitude was frank and relaxed, which made Su Lingxi unconsciously adjust her sitting position.

Now that the system is gone, it stands to reason that she can receive counseling without worry.

but……

“My childhood was actually quite boring,” she said hesitantly. “There weren’t any colorful extracurricular activities. I just went to school every day.”

"Well, it seems that this topic also makes you nervous." Melinda waved the quill in her hand briskly. "I understand how you feel. Or rather, I can understand your distrust of me as a star. When facing unfamiliar strangers, you worry that I will leak secrets to the media. Even if I am trusted by your agent, you still can't let go of your suspicion, right?"

Her guess was very accurate, which not only did not offend Su Lingxi, but instead made her further feel the other party's professional ability.

Remembering what the system had advised her, Su Lingxi tightened her hands on her knees.

Maybe, she should be bolder and more sincere.

“I don’t deny that this is one of the reasons why I can’t relax,” she said frankly, “but it doesn’t mean that I doubt your professionalism. In fact, this is more like a subconscious behavior - because of those unscrupulous paparazzi and media, I will always subconsciously protect myself through this behavior, or in other words, it is a confrontational psychology.”

Melinda looked at her gently and smiled. "Yes, I understand what you mean. But it sounds like you have some knowledge of psychology? At least you analyzed your own behavior very accurately."

“I just happened to read some related books.”

"Very good," Melinda picked up the pen again. "If I'm not mistaken, you have found a way to vent your emotions, right?"

Su Lingxi hesitated for a few seconds, "I'm not sure if my approach is correct..."

"Don't worry, dear. I have had many celebrity clients. As long as they can help you to unblock your inner emotions, you can try any method." Melinda looked at her inquiringly. "Have you tried to communicate with others or seek help?"

Su Lingxi was silent for a few seconds and nodded. "Although my friends and I are often far apart, they all care about me and I will occasionally tell them about my troubles."

"So, what prompted you to make the change?" Melinda pursed her lips. "Was it because of the accident?"

"No, actually...it's because of a friend." Su Lingxi retorted with difficulty.

My thoughts were instantly pulled back to the late autumn of last year.

After losing the golden finger of the system, the problems brought about by the method acting techniques once again emerged.

However, Su Lingxi did not choose to seek help from a psychologist immediately. Instead, she began to relieve her emotions in her own way, such as reducing her production to only 1 to 2 films a year, and taking the initiative to strengthen her connections with friends, trying to meet them once a month and chat with each other frankly.

Everyone around her noticed her change, but no one knew why she changed.

People who are used to living a hard life will always be treading on thin ice when facing happiness.

This was what Su Lingxi used to be like.

But the multiple-choice questions given by the system taught her to let go.

Letting go of past experiences, learning to trust, and learning how to cherish a friendship are compulsory lessons in life that she still needs to learn.

"What kind of friend?" Melinda asked curiously - this was the first time she saw this famous celebrity client look so disappointed.

"He's a lovely friend who is observant and elusive." The corners of Su Lingxi's lips curled up.

Although some people or things have disappeared, they have left indelible marks in her life.
