Mu Ning Jing's face turned pale, and her habitually pursed lips turned pale.
Hu Xin 'er saw that Mu Ning Jing didn't make a sound, but her expression obviously wasn't good. Presumably, she had heard her words, so she continued, "The Shen family isn't your average big family. They mainly deal in the underworld. In their circle, ruthless men should have many women. If they're too devoted to one woman, they'll give others a chance to grab hold of their weakness. Romantic is their standard."
Hu Xin 'er paused to give Mu Ning Jing time to digest her words. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and smoked with the other. Her movements were skillful and charming. After puffing for a while, she continued, "Tingxi used to have many women around him. You are young now, and you have some beauty that Tingxi can be infatuated with. What about in ten or twenty years? Can you guarantee that Tingxi will always only want you? "
Hu Xin 'er removed her cigarette and smiled at Mu Ning Jing. "Of course, if you don't care that Tingxi has other women besides you, or if you are willing to let Tingxi keep you outside behind Ju Qiulan's back, then pretend that I didn't say anything today."
The faint smell of smoke permeated the air around Mu Ning Jing, and she couldn't help but frown.
"Feel free to contact me when you have thought it through." Hu Xin 'er gently patted Mu Ning Jing's shoulder and left the office in her 10cm stilettos.
After work, Shuxin asked Mu Ning Jing, "You don't look too good. Are you feeling unwell?"
Mu Ning Jing shook her head.
"Did Shen Tingxi bully you again?"
Mu Ning Jing shook her head again.
Shuxin knew that she couldn't get anything out of Mu Ning Jing, so she could only say, "Feel free to look for me when you need me. I will always be by your side. Don't shoulder everything by yourself."
Mu Ning Jing smiled faintly. "Okay."
"Do you want me to send you back?"
Mu Ning Jing shook her head and showed her the key to the battery-powered car in her hand.
Shu Xin said, "Be careful on the road. Be careful."
"Yes."
On the way, Mu Ning Jing's mind was filled with what Hu Xin 'er had said to her. She really didn't have anything worth Shen Tingxi's attention. Her family background wasn't good, and she didn't have any money. As for her appearance, Shuxin said that she was very beautiful, but she didn't think that she was beautiful.
She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she almost ran a red light several times.
Back home, Mu Ning Jing started to work after eating, but she couldn't calm down.
Finally, she put down the documents, took out her phone and dialed Shen Tingxi's number. "Tingxi, are you busy?"
"Not bad, what's the matter?" Shen Tingxi's voice was obviously happy because Mu Ning Jing rarely took the initiative to call him.
Mu Ning Jing was silent for a moment. She gathered her courage and asked softly with a red face, "Why do you like me?"
The other end was silent for two seconds. "… Why are you suddenly asking this?"
"You don't have to answer if you don't want to."
"You're beautiful, kind, quiet, and pleasant …" Shen Tingxi paused. "No, these aren't the reasons why I like you. I like you because … I just like you. There's no reason or reason."
"… Yes." Mu Ning Jing's little face was colored with disappointment. She felt that this reason was too perfunctory.
Shen Tingxi seemed to feel Mu Ning Jing's emotions. He thought that Mu Ning Jing was still worried about the incident at the Shen residence that day. "Ningning, I'm telling the truth. I don't know when I fell in love with you, but I couldn't extricate myself from it. When I don't see you for a while, I'll think about what you eat when I eat. When I sleep, I'll think about whether you're asleep. When I see you cry, my heart aches. When I think about how you suffered in the past, I hate that I didn't meet you earlier. Don't be afraid. No matter what other people's attitudes are, I, Shen Tingxi, have set my mind on you in this life. "
Mu Ning Jing's heart was warm. No matter whether she and Shen Tingxi could be together in the future, she was satisfied that he could say these words to her. She pursed her lips, suppressed the heat in her heart, and said softly, "Yes, you're busy."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Ning Jing bent her legs and sat on the sofa with her arms around her knees. She quietly looked at the neon night sky outside and was lost in thought. Her whole person revealed a strong sense of loneliness, and she looked particularly insecure.
In fact, on the phone just now, she really wanted to say to Shen Tingxi, "I miss you. Can you come and accompany me?" However, she didn't dare to say it. When she thought of the last time Shen Tingxi wanted her with scarlet eyes, she was afraid from the bottom of her heart.
Mu Ning Jing was now like a contradictory combination. Emotionally, she was passionate about Shen Tingxi and wanted to be with him all the time. However, psychologically and physically, she was afraid of the relationship between men and women, so she had to keep a distance from Shen Tingxi.
After sitting for a while, Mu Ning Jing thought of something. She got up, opened the drawer under the coffee table, and took out a business card. This was the business card the psychiatrist gave her last time when Shuxin took her to see a psychiatrist.
The psychiatrist said that her problem was a bit serious and suggested that she see a psychiatrist. He also gave her a business card of the psychiatrist.
Mu Ning Jing didn't dare to go to the psychiatrist. Shuxin said that she had done her research on the psychiatrist on the business card. He was indeed a trustworthy person and had a good reputation in the industry. Also, Shuxin and the psychiatrist had met. The psychiatrist said that if she was embarrassed to meet him, they could talk over the phone.
Mu Ning Jing stared at the business card in her hand for a long time. For the sake of Shen Tingxi, she was willing to give it a try. In the end, she picked up her phone and dialed the number on the business card. It didn't take long for the call to go through.
Mu Ning Jing didn't know what to say. For a long time, she didn't say anything. Instead, the person on the other end spoke first. "Are you Miss Mu?"
The man's voice was gentle and pleasant.
Mu Ning Jing tightened her grip on the phone. "Yes."
"Mrs. Huo has roughly told me about your situation. I've been waiting for you to call me, waiting for you to take the first step. You're doing very well now. What do you want to say to me?"
"I..." Mu Ning Jing said one word and then fell silent.
The person on the other end waited for a moment and said, "Have you had dinner?"
Mu Ning Jing: "Yes."
"Are you at the office or at home?"
"Home."
"It's very quiet over there. Aren't you watching TV?"
"No."
"It's easy for people who are too quiet to feel lonely. Did you think of something unhappy?" The doctor on the other end slowly guided her.
Mu Ning Jing's nervous heart slowly relaxed. She told the doctor her thoughts in a soft voice.
About ten minutes later, the doctor roughly understood Mu Ning Jing's recent situation and said, "The past has left too deep a shadow in your heart. It's caused you to be afraid or even afraid to get close to men. As long as you cooperate with the treatment, you can completely return to normal. If you're willing to come to my consultation room..."
"No, I'm not going." Mu Ning Jing's nerves immediately tensed up.
"Okay, okay, okay. Don't be nervous. It's okay if you don't come. You can also treat yourself. Always remember that the past is the past. Nothing is more important than the present."
