Chapter 10, Sharp and Conspicuous

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Consultation Room 4. Unlike the other three consultation rooms, Room 4 is arranged in a rather "girly" style, with pink teddy bears placed in each corner of the folding table by the window, complemented by candy boxes, sky-blue floral curtains, a sunflower oil painting, and a double-headed rabbit lamp, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and joy upon entry

Wen Jing accidentally mixed up the prescription, resulting in the patient receiving the wrong medication. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the patient did not pursue the matter further. However, Yun Yuehua was relentless, directly scolding Wen Jing to the point of tears, even docking her pay and points, leaving Wen Jing humiliated and unable to hold her head high in the department

Impossible

With the car window wide open, Lin Guan suddenly spoke. The sound of the wind howled, and those words were fragmented, scattering away into the distance, disappearing completely

The afternoon sunlight streamed into the office, the air was quiet, and her voice became increasingly authoritative and powerful.

"What is wrong with you?" Song Zhaixing took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her

There was not a single person in the corridor at this moment, she slightly frowned and raised her hand to push open the door

Song Zhaixing repeatedly waved his hand, saying, "There is no such thing."

A pair of slender white hands flipped through the documents on the shelf, breathless and hurried in their movements

Hu Li thought of this when he entered, her gaze evasive as she attempted to exonerate herself, "I only entered the archives to help Director Wu."

Wen Jing lowered her head, feeling guilty in her heart. She never expected that the usually gentle person she was would actually tear her face with her colleagues over her own matters.

Hello, I am your attending physician, Song Zhaixing

Hu Li's complexion darkened, and she remained silent for a long time

The north wind began to diminish in the evening, and by midnight it had completely ceased. Thick clouds piled over the city, obscuring any trace of light. The fog was hazy, and the yellowish glow under the streetlights shrank into a cluster, further accentuating the desolation of the trees. As the year draws to a close and the weather turns cold, the pond is devoid of any flying birds, with only a few scattered wilted lotus leaves hanging on the rocky wall, exuding a musty and damp odor

Wen Jing also came over, her tears still not dried.

I am sorry

Li Weixi looked at her. Nowadays, Hu Li's complexion was pale, yet she still stubbornly refused to admit defeat

The winter day was rather dull, and there were no patients in the afternoon. Song Zhaixing had been lying on the desk like this, and Jian Yifan knocked on the door for a long time without receiving a response

Shi Yue frowned slightly and asked, "Is it a very important intern?"

Hu Li grasped Li Weixi's hand as if it were a lifeline, seemingly wanting to pour out all the grievances and indignation she had just endured. She directly recanted her statement, presenting herself before Li Weixi as if she were an innocent and naive person, untouched by the complexities of the world.

Have you not yet uncovered the truth

The door creaked open, and Lin Guan was suddenly taken aback

Song Zhaixing was very certain, "It is not important at all, which is why it is strange. I have been in the department for quite some time, and the deputy director should not obstruct even this matter."

The deep brown eyeshadow combined with the bean paste colored lip gloss on her fair skin made her look radiant, but now Lin Guan resembled a frostbitten eggplant, lacking any spirit. She stood up, unwilling to continue the conversation with Song Zhaixing, even the strength to rise was a mere effort of encouragement. Her heart sank continuously, as if anticipating something unfortunate, and her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Shi Yue straightened his back, a smile that was neither fully a smile nor a frown on his face, "I originally wanted to comfort you, but unexpectedly, I came to understand it myself."

Hu Li nodded, and after a moment, looked up and asked: "If we cannot obtain evidence, will Director Wu be investigated immediately?"

Because the girl he likes the most loves sunflowers, she has the clearest face, the most adorable smile, and the most brilliant eyes in the world, like the stars. The girl he likes is simple yet vibrant and enchanting. He admires her pride, for even when she has nothing, she is not afraid at all, her eyes shining with light

Her hand, which was resting on the shelf, suddenly withdrew, and she instinctively took a step back, "So what?"

Shi Yue stood up, not a trace of a smile on his face, and greeted him, "Long time no see"

No, it is impossible

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve

Director Liu was very enthusiastic, and his voice was filled with concern

Hu Li had a look of defiance on her face as she rebutted once more: "What can I, an intern, do to Dr. Song? If I have offended Director Wu, she should also reflect on her actions."

Hu Li let out a sound of "ah" as she had been thinking about the rumors circulating in the department. Seeing him bring it up, she quickly confirmed, "What exactly happened to Director Wu?"

Song Zhaixing did not respond, but instead diverted the conversation and asked a different question: "If I want to dismiss an intern, the deputy director won't allow it, but the director has no problem at all, isn't that too strange?"

The office window is half open, and outside, a willow tree grows taller and taller, its pointed branches reaching towards the eaves of the courtyard building, resembling a withered whip. In the frosted lawn, several pansies bloom vibrantly, swaying in the wind under the gray sky, adding a touch of fresh color to the winter day

Noticing her doubts, Shi Yue raised an eyebrow, "The truth always requires unraveling to be seen clearly"

Song Zhaixing reclined comfortably in her chair, returning her disdainful gaze, and then dialed the phone.

The door to the archive room was quietly opened

Wen Jing spoke while shedding tears, choked with emotion: "Hu Li only wrote a surname, how could the patient not get it wrong? This girl is so clever, she puts on one act in front of people and another behind their backs. Taking advantage of the director's presence, she directly took a bite out of me."

It is said that it is related to the introduction of medical equipment by He and Keli. Wu Cong specially talked to Dean Chen Xiwan for an afternoon. Finally, the hospital agreed to purchase domestically produced equipment from Fangda Pharmaceutical, and rejected Yun Yuehua's application.

She stopped by the door to listen, and upon hearing just one sentence, her expression changed dramatically

Have you seen the face?

Song Zhaixing shrugged and said, "He helped my patient with hypnosis, and returned a favor."

In winter, the sun sets early; by a quarter past five in the afternoon, it is already completely dark. The New Year is approaching, and the Beijing University Hospital is adorned with red lanterns to celebrate the new year. However, at this moment, the atmosphere in the psychiatric department is tense, with an exceptionally heavy mood.

Li Weixi smiled brightly and said, "I heard you came, why not come and sit with me?"

Shi Yue? What brings you here?

Lin Wan said as she went to open the door. Just before leaving, she suddenly turned around and gave Song Zhaixing an extremely bright and envious smile.

Standing beside her, Hu Li felt quite anxious, fearing that Lin Guan was still entangled with Li Weixi. She stepped forward and said to her: "Give it to me, and I will assign you a doctor"

Wen Jing was quietly hiding in the archive room, crying. Upon seeing someone approaching, she hurriedly wiped her tears with her sleeve

Li Weixi looked down at her with indifference, saying, "From now on, you will follow Deputy Director Wu. I believe no one else will want you."

Lin Guan sat on the sofa in utter boredom, listening to an extremely clear female voice outside advising a patient. The sunlight outside was warm and gentle, making her feel somewhat dazed.

Song Zhaixing and others stood at the entrance of the security department, listening to Jian Yifan and the security guards joking and chatting inside, with their hands in their pockets, momentarily unsure of what to do.

Come, I will take you to find her

"Why is it you?" A hint of confusion appeared on Lin Guan's delicate face

Song Zhaixing remained silent, her heart filled with worry, unable to think of who it could possibly be. The night was as dark as ink, and the winter wind wailed around the two of them, making even their breaths feel heavy.

This is precisely what Xiaohan fears

Yang Yu suddenly smiled foolishly, "How is that possible? What else could it be with him like this?"

Lin Guanchong rolled her eyes and said, "I am currently anxious, be careful or I will accuse you of having a poor attitude and mistreating patients"

Xiao Han is still unable to speak, but based on the progress of our consultations, it is highly likely that Xiao Han has been a victim of bullying on campus

Understand what the girl he likes actually looks like

Despite Li Weixi clearly telling herself not to go to the psychology department, she went anyway. Therefore, Li Weixi had no choice but to tell her who the person he liked was

Having interned with Li Weixi for such a long time, it was the first time Hu Li saw him looking so worried. She realized that the problem had become very serious, and her complexion worsened. Her palms were sweaty and sticky, and her heart felt like it was in her throat, afraid to think about what might happen next

Good

Li Weixi replied calmly: "He was taken to the office by Director Yun because he is to be dismissed and investigated for bribery"

Hu Li felt an overwhelming sadness in her heart; she could not comprehend how someone who had always been gentle as water could suddenly become so ruthless and severe. Her breathing was erratic, cold sweat clung to her hair, exuding a damp odor. She despondently collapsed to the ground, having no strength left to confront Li Weixi.

Yang Yu's entire face fell, and he kept shaking his head

As Song Zhaixing was about to respond, Hu Li immediately emerged from the corner of the table and walked up to Wen Jing to apologize to her

Song Zhaixing hung up the phone, got up from the chair, and approached Hu Li

Song Zhaixing was extremely angry, "Is lying and shirking responsibility also what you taught?"

Hu Liqiang smiled and said, "What does it mean, Doctor Song?"

Seeing that the two individuals were in a hostile mood, Song Zhaixing quickly took over the documents, cleared his throat, and said, "I had Wenjing prepare these, why did you bring them?"

Song Zhaixing stretched out lazily, behaving like a willful child in front of him

Li Weixi signaled for Hu Li to step back, then took her chart and glanced at it, saying softly: "I have other patients to consult, let me refer you to another doctor."

The cold wind brushed against her face, smoothing the furrows on her brow and dispersing the gloom that had weighed on her heart for many days

The day after, Yun Yuehua once again sent out a message of anger

A-Xing is destined to stand at the pinnacle, inevitably attracting jealousy from certain individuals

It is indeed you

She looked at Hu Li, who was standing at the corner of the table, and smiled, "So you are not going to apologize?"

He continued, saying: "This is the motive for the crime."

Just as the information was about to be obtained, someone suddenly intruded from behind, followed by a clear and cold voice.

There is not enough time to think about this; tomorrow, Guo Xiaohan's family has an appointment for consultation, and I need to prepare for his matters

It has been proven that you were the one who sneaked into the archive room with the key that day. Li Weixi's lips curved slightly as he scrutinized Hu Li, who was leaning against the archive shelf. "When all the clues are put together, we just need to confirm your relationship with Deputy Director Wu. Of course, this is indeed difficult. That's why I asked you to be my intern, to expose your flaws."

He is someone who once cared deeply for and liked another person, yet now they are worlds apart from each other

Once in school, she gave Li Weixi a bouquet of roses to express her love for him. It was the closest she had ever been to Li Weixi. Naively, she thought that since everyone else called him a weirdo, she had a chance to tell Li Weixi that she was different from others.

Li Weixi comforted her, "Deputy Director Wu is an upright person; there must be a misunderstanding in this matter, so do not worry."

Li Weixi smiled faintly, "Don't be nervous, Director Wu is sitting upright. Even if an investigation is conducted, nothing will be found."

Psychological counseling room 2 units

No, we are being monitored, do not say that. No, no!

I will not see you off, Dr. Li

At noon, the shadows of people were sparse. Fang Lin finished the last treatment and went to the cafeteria for a meal. The corridor was empty, with a significant decrease in patients, and even the usual noisy chatter had vanished.

The aphasia of Xiaohan is not due to being bullied at school

Did you explain it to the director

Yes, Deputy Director Wu has always been kind. How could he do such a thing.

Song Zhaixing slowly walked in front of Hu Li, his gaze scrutinizing her like an eagle's claw, and he spoke slowly.

Wen Jing approached her, the sunlight shining behind her, and the room fell into a profound silence.

Song Zhaixing smiled and said, "Impressive, Yifan. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I can only let you secretly steal the surveillance footage."

Song Zhaixing smiled helplessly, "In fact, the truth has been somewhat uncovered, but we lack evidence"

Alright! If I finish work early, I will give you a call

Hu Li clenched his fists tightly, his face flushed with humiliation, turning red to the roots of his ears

The key to the archives was taken by Director Yun yesterday, indicating that she has been planning this for a long time. You know her temperament; she would not act without being certain of toppling Deputy Director Wu.

Li Weixi fell silent for a moment, not responding to her

It is of no use; Hu Li does not acknowledge it at all. Moreover, the director has already imposed a penalty, only advising us to be more cautious in the future

When Hu Li was doing this, she knew that she would not have to bear any consequences, as no one would dare to take action against her. Moreover, her backing was Wu Cong, and she would not have to pay any price.

As soon as Deng Shiyue stepped out, Song Zhaixing immediately issued an eviction order, clearly still upset with Li Weixi

At that time, she did not understand what he was saying at all, until she met Song Zhaixing, and only then did she comprehend

Yang Yu sat opposite her and nodded in response, lowering her head

When Xiao Han was eight years old, several senior students at school bullied him for a long time. They isolated Xiao Han and insulted him. Has he ever mentioned this to you?

Hu Li suddenly burst into tears, sobbing as she looked at Li Weixi, "I am not at fault, it was not me who did it."

Yes. Li Weixi's eyes are deep, "Sun Sisi has a father complex"

Hu Li was alone in Li Weixi's office, organizing patient information while caressing the handwriting left by Li Weixi, smiling radiantly.

"His father..." Yang Yu raised his head slightly, hesitating to speak, "Is Xiaohan's illness related to his father?"

Can we discuss this in more detail

Outside the door, Song Zhaixing felt a warmth in her eyes. She initially intended to push the door open and enter, but after a moment of hesitation, she retreated. Turning around, she went downstairs, feeling both guilty and grateful. Although she had long been aware of the relationship between Hu Li and Wu Cong, she felt utterly helpless and had already given up on the matter of the thesis. Unexpectedly, Li Weixi was still persevering with great effort.

Before the words had left his mouth, Li Weixi suddenly entered through the door, without even the action of knocking.

Shi Yue's expression turned cold, "Do you want to unmask the true culprit?"

Song Zhaixing nodded, "The surveillance video does not show any faces, so even if it is brought out, it would be of no significance. The only thing that confirms for me is that someone did this intentionally. Once I established this, I knew who it was."

On one side of the sofa, there was a cushion with sunflowers. Lin Guan instinctively picked it up and asked, "Do you like sunflowers?"

Song Zhaixing was not wearing any makeup at all, her hair casually scattered, yet her pair of eyes was exceptionally spirited. Even with her bare face, she exuded a sense of clarity, her skin as smooth and translucent as porcelain, evoking envy. The moment Lin Guan laid eyes on her, she knew she had encountered a rival. A woman's sixth sense can be terrifyingly accurate, especially considering that Lin Guan had navigated the realm of romance for many years and would not fail to perceive even this.

You are truly good-looking

Where has Hu Li ever heard such words, fiercely stating: "I am Dr. Li's intern"

Wen Jing could not stop her tears, only focused on wiping them away, unable to utter a word of grievance

Shi Yue: "I would like to invite you to celebrate New Year's Eve together under the stars, are you interested?"

Did I do something wrong? Did I delay you?

Hu Li stood up straight, feigning calmness, "What does it mean?"

Song Zhaixing quickly took it and asked, "Did they notice anything?"

"I called you but you didn't answer, and I knocked on the door but you didn't open it. I thought something had happened." He walked to the desk, leaned over the table, and said, "So you were just asleep?"

Song Zhaixing nodded and said, "In family relationships, Guo Hongquan rarely assumes the responsibilities of a father, right? You and Xiaohan rely on each other for support, and Xiaohan does not want you to worry."

Since their last separation, he has clarified his words, yet unexpectedly, she has appeared again in the psychology department

I like it

Do not forget the agreement

Hu Li's face was pale, as if pleading for mercy, "Sister Wen, I am sorry, please forgive me."

She was dozing against the wall, unaware of how much time had passed, when someone suddenly slapped her shoulder, startling her awake

She looked at Li Weixi with half mischief and half sarcasm and said: "When you were in the United States, your interns were either graduate students from Harvard or doctoral candidates from Stanford. How is it that upon returning to the country, your situation has become so dire that anyone can be your intern?"

Li Weixi's expression was calm, and her fair skin exhibited a sense of unfamiliarity

Song Zhaixing kicked the stool, advancing step by step, "Do you think that just because you lied, no one will do anything to you? This is a psychiatric department; do you really think we doctors are just here to do nothing?"

Around 10 o'clock, the wind picked up, even the rust-colored drainage pipe in the yard was blown over, and pedestrians took shelter under the eaves, yet dust and sand poured directly into their mouths. Thick clouds rolled in, ice pellets fell, and people's visibility diminished, becoming a blur.

Just before the end of work, the sound of the door lock clicking was heard as someone opened the door from the outside

After lunch is the time for a break. Song Zhaixing, having finished his work, came out of the office and suddenly heard faint crying from the next room

His father never cares about us, he only knows how to make money all day long. He even installed surveillance cameras at home, and our phone calls are being monitored, that bastard. Yang Yu started crying again

Wen Jing, who was waiting outside the door, quietly closed the door. Shi Yue then turned and sat opposite Song Zhaixing, quietly observing her.

Song Zhaixing, feeling angry on behalf of Wenjing, directly pulled her outside

The corridor was empty, and the sound of the wind could be faintly heard coming from the stairway. Song Zhaixing's fingertips trembled, cold to the point of lacking warmth

Li Weixi's gaze was profound, "The matter has escalated, and it is certain that an investigation will be conducted"

Li Weixi smiled and said, "Just in time, I have some free time."

Both of those patients have the surname Wang, but their given names are quite different. In the past, I would always write their names on the list to facilitate their medication pickup. However, that day I was too busy, and it was Hu Li who wrote it. She is careless in her work and later refused to admit it, insisting that I was the one who wrote it. I was also overwhelmed with work at the time and accepted the director's scolding. It was only later, upon examining the handwriting, that I realized it was not my writing at all

Song Zhaixing's face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears at his touch, stammering. However, Shi Yue showed no other reaction, stepping away to the window to close it, making the room suddenly much warmer

Song Zhaixing looked at her, and in the measurement form, the name field was filled with "Yang Yu," while the illness field was filled with "schizophrenia"

"No, I want you to look." Lin Guan said playfully

Do not speak recklessly about matters without evidence

Yang Yu's reaction was somewhat slow; after a while, she was extremely surprised, "Bullying? How could that be? My little Han is both well-behaved and excels in her studies."

Lin Guan naturally understood his meaning and quickly presented the measurement form to him, "I am ill, suffering from a mental disorder, anxiety!"

Song Zhaixing, unafraid of his gaze, immediately questioned Hu Li: "Will you dare to shirk responsibility again in the future?"

Evidence of burglary in the room

The initial symptoms of schizophrenia include insomnia and auditory hallucinations, mood swings, frequent crying, forgetfulness, impaired perception, and a constant feeling that someone intends to harm oneself. It was only after Li Weixi performed hypnosis on Guo Xiaohan that Song Zhaixing realized that the root cause of Xiaohan's speech dysfunction was, surprisingly, his mother.

Should I apologize to Wenjing

I must find the children who bullied my little Han, and I will make them pay the price! Yang Yu spoke with restraint, but her words were filled with resentment in Song Zhaixing's ears

Song Zhaixing smiled knowingly, then picked up the phone and dialed a series of numbers, reaching the head of the medical department.

Shi Yue smiled lightly, the keychain hanging from her finger, producing a jingling sound

Li Weixi took a step closer to her, "Hu Li, Deputy Director Wu can no longer protect you."

Having spent a considerable amount of time with Li Weixi, Hu Li naturally understood his favoritism and care towards her. Now, she did not shy away from it and quickly asked him: "Is there any way to save Director Wu?"

Her statement made Shi Yue completely understand that she intended to put an end to this matter. Shi Yue was unwilling to give up, as it was indeed infuriating to not capture the true culprit behind such a heinous act

It is quite rare for all three members of a family to suffer from mental illness. Song Zhaixing thought of her thesis topic, which precisely studies this direction, and felt a pang in her heart. The consultation room was stifling, even Yang Yu's cries were tinged with restraint and muffled endurance. Outside the window, the sky was dim, thick clouds were brewing a storm.

Li Weixi entered the office with Hu Li, briefing her on patient matters. However, Hu Li remained distracted, responding absentmindedly to whatever Li Weixi said

Song Zhaixing's expression was also serious as he slowly said to her: "To help Xiao Han come out, the cooperation of the family is needed"

Today, he wore a coat with a minimalist design, featuring sharp tailoring that exuded a sense of competence and elegance. The laurel-colored cotton blend shirt complemented his complexion, and even a pair of round-frame glasses added to his fresh and artistic appearance. However, his gaze continually lingered on Hu Li, imbued with an innate tenderness, yet also reflecting a different kind of astuteness than before.

Lin Guan sneered at her, "What do you think you are?"

Song Zhaixing was puzzled and quickly flipped through Sun Sisi's information. His expression changed, "Electra complex?"

Song Zhaixing looked at Yang Yu in front of her, feeling fortunate that her condition showed a positive result and was not too severe. Otherwise, treating Xiao Han's illness would become even more challenging, with little hope.

Li Weixi pondered, "Deputy Director Wu is currently in the hospital office and is being restrained by Director Yun. It seems he won't be back anytime soon. If I truly want to help him, I need to obtain the information and price list for the introduced equipment to prove that Deputy Director Wu has not accepted any bribes in private. This way, the matter will become clear. However..."

"Evidence, more evidence!" Song Zhaixing glared at Li Weixi and said angrily, "Are your eyes blind? Is your heart blind? Is evidence the only thing that can keep you alive? Since this is your intern, I kindly ask you to manage them properly!"

In fact, when she called Wu Cong in the morning, after Song Zhaixing finished discussing the matter of changing interns, Wu Cong rejected it. Although his tone was polite, she could clearly sense his reluctance. Fortunately, she hung up the phone in advance, allowing the remaining words to intimidate Hu Li.

Director Yun? The current interns are not very competent. Of course, there are successors. You agree, right? Alright, good. Then I will call the medical department immediately.

It can be considered as

Song Zhaixing paused for a moment and said to him, "I still have an electronic backup, so the paper is not lost. I can submit it to a journal next year as well"

Guo Hongquan stood once again at the entrance of the psychology department with Guo Xiaohan. This time, Guo Xiaohan's mother also came; she was a slender woman, her complexion haggard, appearing frail and timid.

In the parking area, Lin Guan sat alone in the car, the furrow on her forehead still not fading away.

Shi Yue smiled and said, "Will you accompany me to celebrate the New Year together tomorrow?"

Shi Yue also smiled, then turned to bid farewell to Song Zhaixing

He lowered his gaze at Hu Li, his voice distant, "Of course, this is just an introduction. What truly made me suspect him was the fact that A Xing's thesis involved issues related to future promotions. If A Xing were to be promoted, it would only pose a threat to two individuals: Director Yun and Deputy Director Wu"

Jian Yifan shook his head, "Trust me, it will be flawless."

The term "Cold-Faced Director" began to spread wildly, and Yun Yuehua was about to take revenge on Wu Cong. Everyone whispered among themselves, each carrying a heart filled with anxiety, fearing that before Deputy Director Wu encountered trouble, the storm would first descend upon them.

You have committed a wrongdoing on behalf of Deputy Director Wu, fully aware that once he is dismissed, you will inevitably be implicated. Therefore, taking advantage of the opportunity today while Director Yun and Deputy Director Wu are attending a meeting at the hospital, I feigned a conversation with you about Deputy Director Wu's bribery, actually just to observe your reaction

Li Weixi slowly walked in and looked at her, "You are the closest to Wenjing, so you can easily obtain the key to the archive room."

Lin Guan kept staring at Song Zhaixing, and after a long pause, she did not answer her question, but instead asked her back: "Is your name Song?"

"It was indeed intentional." Song Zhaixing tightened her grip on the USB drive, then frowned, "The person who stole my thesis must be afraid that I will get promoted and overshadow her. Is it Director Yun? Fang Lin?"

Song Zhaixing had never felt so frustrated. She looked at Hu Li's aggrieved expression and felt the extremely distrustful and distant gaze of Li Weixi. Without hesitation, she directly pulled Wen Jing and stepped out of the office

Wen Jing was startled by her sudden action

She remembers clearly that Li Weixi told her that his favorite flower is the sunflower

A month ago, Xiaohan was bullied once again, but she did not dare to tell you at all

I reviewed the surveillance footage from that time; it was a woman who entered the archive room, disguised very well, even wearing very high heels, making it difficult to discern who she was. However, this was precisely where the murderer revealed their flaw, leading people to mistakenly believe that Director Yun's methods were not sophisticated.

After a consultation, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Li Weixi's forehead. As he came out, Hu Li quickly handed him a warm towel, her hands delicate and nimble

You should apologize to Wenjing, and we will consider this matter resolved

Song Zhaixing sighed: "The director's words were rather harsh, but do not take them too much to heart"

Still not admitting it?" Li Weixi had not the slightest hint of a smile, staring at her unblinkingly, "It's easy to guess you, I just want to see who is manipulating you from behind.

Upon hearing this, Hu Li gasped in surprise, "A meeting?"

A single sentence struck her heart, causing tears to surge forth. She looked at Li Weixi in disbelief, suddenly realizing that everything had been a trap. The so-called intern, the alleged favoritism, were merely plans for the current situation; he had always known the truth, coldly observing her disguise and lies, like a buffoon.

Song Zhaixing looked at her measurement form and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"

I will come again another day

Song Zhaixing was taken aback, "What on earth is going on?"

Lin Guan chuckled softly, "Yes, yes, it's the same for everyone."

Seeing her argue so cunningly, Song Zhaixing was not in a hurry. He slowly sat down in Li Weixi's seat and took out his phone

The most important thing now is to make Xiao Han speak again

I understand why Li Weixi returned to the country

Song nodded slightly.

Yang Yu covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face, "No, he says nothing at all"

Li Weixi, however, was not in a hurry; his voice was gentle, "Take a look at Sun Sisi's report."

Song Zhaixing stood frozen in place, not expecting that Lin Guan would have such a moment of desolation.

On the last day of the old year, the weather remained gloomy and terrifying, with a chilling cold and thick clouds rolling in, weighing down on one's heart as if it were burdened by a heavy stone

Her eyes suddenly brightened, "Is it only Xi who likes you?"

At the age of eight, you crazily grabbed his neck and told him to die together. If life is unsatisfactory, then let us die together

Song Zhaixing was rendered speechless by the choking incident

Song Zhaixing discerned his thoughts and then said: "I also want to catch them, but there is indeed no evidence. Moreover, stealing a thesis would at most damage one's reputation, and the police would not intervene."

Mental illness

Wen Jing raised her head, crying even more fiercely: "It was not me who prescribed the wrong medication at all"

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Li Weixi stood at the entrance, her figure slender and her demeanor elegant

Song Zhaixing felt extremely embarrassed, "I am so, so tired"

His figure is tall and slender, as radiant as a jade tree, exuding an air of solemnity and purity. Beneath the cold and piercing demeanor, a pair of peach blossom eyes shines exceptionally bright, like stars twinkling on a jade mountain.

The person in front of the shelf was taken aback

Star Picking

Song Zhaixing still spoke to her in a calm tone: "He is afraid of you dying, and he is also afraid of dying himself"

Wen Jing and Fang Lin followed behind him, whispering about how there could be such a handsome and pleasing man. Song Zhaixing was startled awake by the noisy sounds, and with her eyes still hazy, she looked up towards the outside.

She shook her head, "It is not me"

Li Weixi, I hate you

Song Zhaixing pulled up a chair and sat across from her, his smile unwavering, "From now on, just call me A Xing."

Song Zhaixing furrowed her brows tightly and let out a heavy sigh. The issue with Guo Xiaohan had yet to be resolved, and now the problems with Sun Sisi were following one after another. The new year and new beginnings seemed to have no effect on her at all

The somber emotions erupted in the psychiatry department, as rumors of Wu Cong's bribery began circulating shortly after the workday commenced at 8:00. Everyone's expression was one of desolation, akin to light being dimmed and oppressed by thick clouds in the sky.

Li Weixi: "What one seeks is unattainable"

This infuriated the usually autocratic Yun Yuehua, who vented her anger on the team. She demanded that team members not only provide consultations and treatments for patients daily but also hold additional meetings to report and work on projects. After a few days, everyone was utterly exhausted

He handed a stack of documents to Song Zhaixing, "The report from Sun Sisi has been released"

What apology? I do not understand

The disappearance of the paper coincided with the time when Deputy Director Wu was going through a divorce. I looked into his wife's profession; she is also a psychological counselor. Li Weixi sat up straight, his profile sharp, stating, "Everyone in the department knows that Deputy Director Wu deeply loves his wife. Unless it involves crossing a line, it is unlikely that his wife would initiate a divorce with him."

Li Weixi said淡淡: "I will teach my intern."

Song Zhaixing is still searching for the thief who stole his paper, his eyes are darkened from lack of sleep, yet he has still found nothing.

Are you quite pleased with yourself

The afternoon sunlight was obscured by thick clouds, casting a gloomy shadow over the entire afternoon. Song Zhaixing nestled in the office, her disheveled hair buried in the crook of her arm, resembling an injured Scottish Fold cat

As the New Year approaches, my mood is unexpectedly terrible

Shi Yue gently placed one hand on her forehead, feeling the warmth, and said with relief: "Fortunately, she hasn't caught a cold"

Hu Li cried with tears like pear blossoms, her tears hanging on her face, showing no response to Song Zhaixing's words

Jian Yifan found it somewhat difficult to understand, "Have Hu Li and Wen Jing been excluded?"

Hu Li's face turned red, yet he remained silent

Song Zhaixing finished the call and looked at Hu Li, whose complexion had worsened. He asked, "If you sincerely apologize to Wenjing, I will consider this matter as if it never happened"

Standing at the door, Wen Jing had never seen Song Zhaixing like this before—gentle yet sharp, speaking with authority and leaving no room for Hu Li. It was well known that Song Zhaixing was the star of the department, even Director Yun had to give her some respect, yet she had never been arrogant due to her popularity. Diligent and conscientious, she had been offered positions by numerous hospitals and schools, all of which she had turned down one by one.

She bit her lip and paused for a moment before coldly saying, "Even if you catch me now, I will not admit to it. You have no direct evidence of me stealing the thesis."

It would be best if one truly realizes their mistake

Song Zhaixing was a bit dazed, "I probably haven't remembered the New Year for about five years, as I have spent every time in the department."

There was nothing, just a shadow captured by the surveillance camera, entirely in black

Song Zhaixing hung up the phone briskly and turned to Hu Li

I am currently treating Lin Fan and it is inconvenient for me to provide you with further consultation, as you are aware

Song Zhaixing took her to the consultation room alone, hoping to have a good discussion about Guo Xiaohan's situation

She recalled a few years ago when she was in the United States, chasing after Li Weixi every day, demanding that he like her, insisting on being his girlfriend. Even now, she has not changed; she has always liked Li Weixi, the most.

Li Weixi naturally understood this, and with a faint smile, said, "Of course, I cannot do anything to you. However, Hu Li, since I have been your mentor for a few days, I have the responsibility to tell you that doing bad things will inevitably come with consequences. Take care of yourself."

Lao Liu, I would like to dismiss an intern. Is the process complicated?

Li Weixi slowly approached her, his rare, piercingly cold aura instilling fear in Hu Li. He leaned slightly closer, whispering in her ear word by word: "There must not be a second time, otherwise I will never let you go."

Hu Li's breathing was somewhat erratic, his fists tightly clenched, yet he still said nothing.

Song Zhaixing kicked the door open with a bang, looking at Hu Li inside.

Ms. Yang Yu

Lin Guan still wore a smile on her face and called out to him gently: "Xiao Xixi, I've been waiting for you for a long time"

Having spent several years together, Song Zhaixing naturally knew that Wen Jing was usually cautious and rarely made mistakes, but he did not expect that this matter was instigated by Hu Li.

Hu Li shouted at her: "What did you say? Say it again."

She immediately felt melancholy after speaking, "Where can one feel that they are special?"

Song Zhaixing nodded, then picked up his phone and dialed the number again

She turned on the external sound and greeted the person across from her in a familiar manner

No one is directing.

In the archive room, Li Weixi looked at Hu Li, who was crying uncontrollably, and said sternly: "Deputy Director Wu asked you to steal A Xing's thesis, and you just stole it?"

Is it that serious?! Hu Li was taken aback and anxiously said, "Director Wu is definitely not that kind of person"

Jian Yifan became more arrogant, but in an instant, she whispered to her, "When I was copying, I saw the thief who secretly infiltrated the psychology department looking like a woman."

Is it true that you stole A Xing's thesis?

Gentle as the sea, Song Zhaixing added.

Li Weixi looked at the phone in her hand, her eyes half-squinted, "Presumably, he has not answered many calls from Deputy Director Wu, right? This morning, I specifically instructed Director Yun to keep an eye on Deputy Director Wu. The meeting at the institute before the holiday will not conclude until the afternoon"

Hu Li was completely unaware of the meeting, let alone that Li Weixi intentionally used this matter to investigate her. There was certainly no leakage of information beforehand. Hu Li lowered her head, tears welling up again. She did not expect Li Weixi to be so ruthless towards her, and even the rumors of bribery circulating in the department were a trap set by Li Weixi, aimed at throwing her into confusion.

With tears welling in her eyes, Lin Guan stood tall and immediately started the car, speeding away in a cloud of dust

The verdant willows swayed downstairs, their branches dancing gently. Song Zhaixing took a deep breath and suddenly understood Li Weixi's thoughts and feelings. The effort to draw out the truth from Hu Li was meant to make her aware that one must pay the price for wrongdoing. Even if there are no consequences now, there will be in the future. Those schemes and petty intrigues will eventually turn into a sharp sword, ultimately piercing oneself.

"What if I were to be dismissed? My reputation would inevitably suffer," Hu Li sighed. "We have all worked together; we cannot just stand by and do nothing, can we?"

Lin Guan opened her mouth and then compromised, "Alright then, introduce me to the doctor you think is the best."

Li Weixi expressed his gratitude to her, stood at the door to rest for a moment, and suddenly saw Lin Guan arriving

"Shi Yue, I have been feeling absolutely terrible lately," Song Zhaixing immediately complained

Lin Guan scoffed, "He loves to help others the most"

Generally speaking

Hu Li rebutted: "It could also be Director Yun."

Hello, Deputy Director Wu? Is it your responsibility to manage the mistakes made by the intern? If you want me to take charge, that's fine. Coincidentally, the cooperating university is going to provide me with a graduate student to serve as my intern, so I will see who is more suitable to keep.

Since coming to the psychology department, Lin Guan was shocked for the first time. The woman's sixth sense told her that the doctor in front of her was certainly not just the most capable person.

Hu Li organized the medical records and placed them on the corner of Li Weixi's desk. Just as she was about to go out, Li Weixi suddenly spoke up: "Do you know about Deputy Director Wu's situation?"

Lin Guan burst into laughter, resting one hand on Li Weixi's shoulder, her long, curled hair exuding a sweet fragrance

Understanding that I have long since lost

Hu Li's fingers were slightly curled, her mouth closed and silent, with a face full of stubbornness

Jian Yifan panted as he handed her the USB drive, "It's done!"

However, what?

Song Zhaixing sent off Guo Xiaohan's family and stayed in the office for a moment before coming out. She had already reported Yang Yu's information to Shi Yue, hoping that Xishan Psychiatric Hospital could cooperate with her in handling Yang Yu's case. Shi Yue readily agreed, which made Song Zhaixing very happy. When she came out, the office was empty. She initially planned to have a light meal, but as she passed by the archive room, she noticed the door slightly ajar, with faint voices coming from inside.

Hu Li's eyes were misty with tears, "How could you doubt Deputy Director Wu?"
