Inside the consultation room, a soft sigh drifted silently through the air.

Liu Sisi felt a mix of emotions. She slowly looked away, her heart filled with pity and helplessness.

How could she not know how deeply Lin Lan's feelings for Lin Xuedong were? All that inner pain and struggle was genuine.

However, wasn't her love for Lin Xuedong just as profound?

She could never give up on this relationship, nor could she stand by and watch Lin Lan stir up trouble between them in the name of love, ultimately resulting in both of them suffering losses.

So to some extent, despite the difficulties and the disgusting experience, she accepted Lin Xuedong's solution without hesitation.

In fact, she had long ago had the idea of ​​asking Kenny Bee to help persuade Lin Lan.

At that time, I was also overwhelmed with many things, and the future direction was still unclear. Amidst all the turmoil, I eventually fell into a predicament.

At that moment, she looked at the wooden bookshelf that reached the top, on which various medical books were neatly arranged, and the text on the spines was clearly legible.

The lush green plants beside the bookshelf added a touch of vitality to this clean and cool space.

Liu Sisi sincerely hoped that Lin Lan would learn from this experience.

Hopefully, she can transform herself from this heartbreak, like this lush green plant, breaking free from the shackles of psychological trauma, dispelling the gloom, and finding her own ray of light again.

"From a psychological perspective, childhood experiences often have a profound impact on a person's psychological and emotional patterns. Your sharing of your experiences is very courageous and an important step towards recovery. In fact, many people encounter similar dilemmas when facing deep-seated emotional turmoil and trauma..."

After scribbling a few lines on the tablet, Du Zhentao looked up at Lin Lan with a warm smile: "But I want to say, Lanlan, you are not without care or love. At the very least, you have the means to be beautiful and enjoy yourself on your own."

"Look at me, I envy Mr. Lin too! He got to marry the girl he loves. You know, Sisi was originally my blind date." He rarely made such a lame joke, but it didn't elicit a single laugh from the two girls; instead, he was the one who looked embarrassed. "However, seeing Sisi happy makes me feel at peace. Life is full of disappointments, and the worst thing you can do is make things difficult for yourself. You can't hurt others, but you only make yourself suffer. It's really not right!"

Lin Lan nodded silently, trying to control her emotions. "I know this is wrong, but I just can't control myself."

"I heard from Sisi that you're going to settle down in Gangcheng at the end of the month?"

"Hmm." Lin Lan's eyes flickered, a hint of confusion in them.

"That's a good idea." Putting down the tablet, Du Zhentao raised an eyebrow in agreement: "From a professional perspective, your environment, especially those scenes that constantly evoke specific emotions in you, has an undeniable impact on your current psychological state. Just like how you've been in an environment closely connected with your brother and Sisi, this will undoubtedly continue to intensify your inner turmoil and pain."

He paused, observing Lin Lan's reaction. Seeing that she was listening attentively, he continued, "So, I also suggest that you temporarily leave this environment that makes you feel uneasy and start a new life in Hong Kong. A new environment, meeting different people, and participating in different activities may provide you with an opportunity to re-examine yourself and heal your heart."

Lin Lan looked up, her eyes blurry with tears, at the gentle man.

The white light from the chandelier shone on his fair skin, making it appear to glow.

Her lips curled up slightly, but she quickly suppressed it again. "Is that so? I hope so..."

But Du Zhentao didn't know that seeing Liu Sisi holding her child with Lin Xuedong made Lin Lan feel as if she were being gnawed at by ants, causing her immense pain and despair.

Her gaze flickered, then fell directly on Liu Sisi, a barely perceptible hint of gloom flashing in her eyes, but the faint smile on her face remained perfectly tactful. "Sisi, thank you for spending the whole afternoon with me..."

"It's alright, are you feeling any better?" Liu Sisi stood up and walked to their side. "Actually, I've been wanting to get together with Atao for a long time."

"Hehe, your Mrs. Lin is either living a secluded life or busy with her career." Du Zhentao's gaze fell on Liu Sisi.

The young woman was wearing a beige Chanel-style suit today, her jet-black hair simply tied into a low ponytail, revealing her charming swan neck. She exuded elegance and sophistication, with a touch of mature feminine charm that made her irresistible.

He smiled jokingly, "It's all thanks to Tao Lanlan that I was able to see you today."

Knock knock knock!

Before anyone inside could respond, the wooden door to the consultation room was slammed open.

The moment Lin Xuedong appeared, his hurried and chilling figure seemed to drop several degrees in temperature.

The three people inside were startled and paused simultaneously, their eyes all turning towards the doorway.

"Why are you here?" Liu Sisi was the first to come to her senses, and turned to walk towards him with a hint of suspicion.

Lin Xuedong's cold gaze swept over Du Zhentao and Lin Lan in the room with the sharpness of a cold star, finally settling on Liu Sisi.

His brows furrowed slightly, but his deep, mellow voice wasn't overly cold: "I've come to pick you up. Is everything done?"

It's not that I didn't sense the man's hidden temper; he was probably still blaming her for being nosy this afternoon.

Liu Sisi pursed her lips and took his hand. "That's about enough. I'm here today to deliver an invitation to Atao."

At this moment, Du Zhentao helped Lin Lan up from the recliner and calmly gave Lin Xuedong a sincere smile: "Congratulations to you two. Lanlan hasn't been sleeping well lately, so the three of us chatted for a while."

Lin Xuedong narrowed his deep eyes slightly, but instead of taking a step, he smiled with great grace: "Thank you, then Dr. Du, please come early."

Although somewhat unwilling, Lin Lan still silently tugged at the corners of her lips and murmured softly, "Brother is so good to sister-in-law."

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. Liu Sisi gently shook Lin Xuedong's hand and, unusually in front of everyone, smiled softly at him: "Honey, we were just thinking of finishing up quickly so we could come find you."

As she spoke, she leaned slightly closer to the man, her smile a flattering and coquettish one that Lin Xuedong found most appealing.

His expression softened somewhat. "Really?"

Du Zhentao was also taken aback, standing there unsure whether to go forward or backward, and could only awkwardly clench his fist: "Of course, I also hope that Sisi will be happy and become the most beautiful bride."

"Heh." Lin Xuedong let out a low chuckle, then stretched out his arm and easily pulled Liu Sisi into his arms.

At this moment, he stood tall and proud.

His thin, strong lips were slightly pursed, as if declaring his ownership of Liu Sisi.

The movement seemed casual, yet it revealed an undeniable firmness and confidence.

Then, his gentle gaze fell upon the small woman in his arms, his deep eyes seeming to hold countless twinkling stars. "How about I treat you tonight to properly thank Dr. Du for his kind wishes?"
