“Provide him with good food and drinks, but don’t allow him to slack off. Treat him the same way you treat your employees. He will probably not want to work after a week, so threaten him then. Tell him that if he doesn’t work for at least a month, his entire family will be killed.”
“Sister… You’re so funny.”
Boss Li thought to himself, who would dare to mess with someone associated with Brother Xu?
“Here are eight words for you: unite, be tense, be serious, be lively.”
Boss Li’s eyes narrowed, baffled by the meaning of these words.
Thinking about Yu Minglang’s serious expression when he said this, Xiao Qian secretly chuckled.
See, a normal person would think this is a request like one from someone with schizophrenia, right? No wonder Yu Minglang always has a straight face when he tells a cold joke and occasionally mocks someone. She tried to imitate it, and it was indeed very satisfying.
“Of course, if you can’t meet my requirements, I don’t know whether Brother Xu will kill your whole family or not.” Xiao Qian threatened him with a straight face.
Boss Li was no longer laughing.
Where did this femme fatale come from…
“The most important thing is, if he gets any good equipment, don’t praise him. You can even use your eyes or words to mock him. Tell him that these things are all set by the programmers, and it’s nothing impressive. Even a pig could get them if they sat in front of the keyboard.”
This is a crucial step in Xiao Qian’s treatment plan for her younger brother, making the unlucky child feel no sense of accomplishment from the game and even feel that the game is painful. Once he has this perception, the appeal of online games will disappear.
Zheng Xu’s car soon arrived and Chen Zilong waved cheerfully to see his sister off. His heart was filled with expectations for the future but he didn’t notice Xiao Qian’s dark smile when she had her back turned to him.
Boss Li glanced at Brother Xu’s car and then at Chen Zilong, who was still waving at the car exhaust. He muttered to himself.
“What does ‘unite, be tense, be serious, and be lively’ mean?”
“Brother Li, your dragon tattoo looks so cool.” Chen Zilong loved the feeling of being involved in society.
He felt so cool, mixing with those in society!
“Go play your game. The other brothers will teach you the operation.” Boss Li softly recited Xiao Qian’s instructions and said with a straight face, secretly thinking, is this serious enough?
Zheng Xu and Xiao Qian sat together in the back seat of the car. Seeing Xiao Qian’s upturned lips, he asked curiously.
“Who did you trick?”
“Is it that obvious?”
“Mhm.”
Xiao Qian only had a slight smile, but Zheng Xu had a strange premonition that she must have just tricked someone.
Looking out of the window, Xiao Qian smiled slightly. Psychic twins truly were different; they could even see through this.
“Where’s that Husky, why isn’t he with you, barking?” Zheng Xu thought Yu Minglang would be watching Xiao Qian closely.
“If he’s a Husky, you’re a Tibetan Mastiff. The two of you are the same.” Xiao Qian wondered.
Yu Minglang had mentioned before that if she were treating Zheng Xu, he would have someone follow her, but today was the day, and she didn’t see anyone.
“I thought that guy would tie a rope around your neck and attach it to his waist to prevent anyone from taking you away.” Zheng Xu couldn’t help but feel a bitter hatred towards Yu Minglang.
“Are you thinking that while I treat you for desensitization later, I’ll also use some psychological suggestion to put you in eternal sleep?” Xiao Qian glanced sideways at him.
Zheng Xu snorted, “You like him that much, can’t you stand others talking about him?”
“It has nothing to do with liking. I just don’t like others talking about him.” She could mock him all she wanted.
“You’re not married yet, right?”
“Zheng Xu, if you push me away, no one will treat your illness.” Xiao Qian didn’t want to discuss feelings with him, so she went straight for the bait.
“Being a patient will eventually come to an end, but being my woman, you could hypnotize me for a lifetime. Chen Xiaoqian, why not consider me? I think I’m more suitable for you than Fourth Brother Yu.”
“Zheng Xu, what are you after? If it’s just for the friction between two organs, I’m telling you, rubbing with someone else is about the same as me, so don’t waste your energy.”
The driver, who was originally looking straight ahead, didn’t dare to eavesdrop on his boss’s flirting.
But he accidentally overheard Xiao Qian’s friction theory. His hand trembled, and the steering wheel nearly hit the divider.
Zheng Xu was also shocked by Xiao Qian’s words.
It was the first time he saw someone, especially a woman, who was more direct than him!
“What if I just want to rub with you once?”
“You’ll be satisfied down there, but empty up here. Honestly, Zheng Xu, if you force yourself on me, just for that moment of pleasure, then for the rest of your life, you won’t find a second friend like me. Can’t there be some pure friendship between men and women besides that trivial matter?”
It’s better to talk openly now, so they won’t feel awkward later.
“Why don’t you develop a pure friendship with Yu Minglang and leave that trivial matter to me?” Where did he fall short compared to Yu Minglang?
“… Because that trivial matter is like a mental illness, it comes and goes, and you can’t control it. You don’t know who your weak spot is, and you don’t know when you’ll encounter it.”
Xiao Qian couldn’t make sense of this question either, but she needed to explain things clearly.
“Zheng Xu, if you can be my friend, don’t mess around with me like this. Let’s just be like brothers.”
“If I can’t do it… Do I have to say goodbye to you?”
“No goodbye, just a complete break. It’s better to be ruthless now than to be entangled and sticky later.”
“What’s so good about Yu Erha?”
“Actually, he has quite a few advantages. For example…” What? Xiao Qian couldn’t think of any, so she just made up a random one.
“He trusts me. You see, I only told him that I would chat with you regularly, and he trusted me. Isn’t that advantage adorable?”
“Chen Xiaoqian, you’re so pretentious and uninteresting.” Zheng Xu, a smart man, laughed and scolded her, and they both dropped the topic.
The car had already pulled up outside Zheng Xu’s villa. Seeing the parked Volvo next to him, Zheng Xu raised an eyebrow, and Xiao Qian was speechless.
Yu Minglang’s best friend Hai Zhao was leaning against the car smoking. When he saw Zheng Xu return, he stepped on his cigarette, waved at them, and said,
“Brother Xu~”
“What brings you to my humble abode? It’s an honor.” Zheng Xu replied without much laughter.
Seeing him was almost like seeing Yu Minglang, both equally hateful in appearance.
“I came to pick up our Sister-in-Law Lang. After you finish chatting, I’ll drive her back home directly. Don’t worry, take your time. I’ll wait outside.”
Zheng Xu looked at Xiao Qian with a half-smile, “Trust you? Adorable?”
Slap! Xiao Qian felt like her little face was being slapped by that faraway Yu Erha, who was at work, with his big paw.
Smelly jerk, he couldn’t take a compliment. He lost even that little advantage just like that!
This time the treatment went more smoothly. After Xiao Qian completed the systematic desensitization treatment and recorded Zheng Xu’s condition, she began the formal hypnosis.
Unlike last time, she didn’t let him enter the sleep state after using a leading word to help him relax, but had him stay in a subconscious state to answer her questions.
“Now, please answer my questions truthfully. Starting from the age of five, recall every year’s special events… Begin..”
