Chapter 93: Losing Control
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ji Jingchen’s behavior was too terrifying. Du Jiuyuan had never seen him like this before. Ji Jingchen suddenly stood up and walked into her bedroom. The bandages covering the wounds on his hands had all fallen off, and a faint smell of blood wafted out.
“What’s wrong with you?” Du Jiuyuan noticed Ji Jingchen’s abnormality and followed up to ask.
Ji Jingchen didn’t reply. He strode into the room and closed the door.
Du Jiuyuan followed him and realized that the door was already locked from the inside. She kept knocking on the door. “Ji Jingchen, what’s wrong with you? Come out quickly.”
His expression and state were too abnormal. However, no matter how much Du Jiuyuan knocked on the door, Ji Jingchen didn’t open it for her.
Breaking sounds could be heard from inside the room. It was as if something was being smashed. Du Jiuyuan could hear every sound coming from the room through the door. She felt as if her heart was about to stop beating.
It was okay if Ji Jingchen was just smashing things, but what if he tried to hurt himself? Du Jiuyuan did not dare to think about it anymore. She called Peter and Jiang Cheng, but they still did not pick up.
Just as she felt lost, she saw Ji Jingchen’s phone on the sofa. She tried to enter the password to unlock it, but it was unlocked almost instantaneously. She found Li Ruyan from his contact list and dialed the number without hesitation.
“Why are you calling me at this hour? What’s wrong? Have you run out of supplies for your medicine?” Li Ruyan picked up the phone, and her voice was as gentle as water.
“Doctor Li, CEO Ji seems to have lost control. He locked himself in my bedroom and refused to come out. Is it convenient for you to come over now?” Du Jiuyuan heard what Li Ruyan said earlier and realized that Ji Jingchen had psychological problems. Du Jiuyuan was taking a gamble by calling Li Ruyan, and it just happened that she made the right choice.
“Send me the address,” Li Ruyan’s voice was icy cold.
Du Jiuyuan sent the address to Li Ruyan through text message and knocked on the bedroom door again. The sound of things being smashed in the room was a little quieter, but Ji Jingchen still didn’t open the door for her.
…
Half an hour later, it was already 10 o’clock. Li Ruyan, dressed in professional attire, knocked on the door with her briefcase.
“Hello, Doctor Li.” Du Jiuyuan didn’t know if it was an illusion, but she instantly felt a headache when she saw Li Ruyan.
“Where’s CEO Ji?” Li Ruyan didn’t even look Du Jiuyuan in the eye, and her tone was as if she was talking to a stranger.
“He’s been in there the whole time. He has not made a sound since 15 minutes ago.” Du Jiuyuan pointed in the bedroom’s direction and said politely.
Li Ruyan didn’t reply. She walked straight to Du Jiuyuan’s bedroom and knocked on the door. “CEO Ji, I’m Li Ruyan. Please open the door for me.”
Suddenly, the door opened. Li Ruyan glanced at Du Jiuyuan and went in, and the door was quickly locked behind her. It seemed that Ji Jingchen didn’t want Du Jiuyuan to see him lose control.
Du Jiuyuan returned to the sofa. She tried to flip through her magazine, but her heart was in a mess. She couldn’t calm down for a long time.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom.
Ji Jingchen struggled to get up and opened the door for Li Ruyan. He leaned against the wall and slowly sat on the floor.
The room was a mess. Ji Jingchen’s clothes were crumpled up, and his white shirt was covered in bright red blood. His hands were bleeding profusely as if he had suffered a severe injury.
Li Ruyan squatted in front of him and took out a syringe from her briefcase. As she injected him, she said, “CEO Ji, you are not allowed to consume cigarettes and alcohol. They will stimulate your nerves. I’ve previously warned you not to go near these chemicals before.”
Ji Jingchen did not reply. He allowed Li Ruyan to inject the drug into him. Li Ruyan’s movements were skillful and professional. She quickly pulled the needle and pressed a cotton swab on the needle hole to prevent blood from seeping out.
“CEO Ji, if you can’t control your emotions, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
“Is she alright?” The drug’s effect was swift. Ji Jingchen had already calmed the rage in his heart.
Every time he lost control, Ji Jingchen’s mind would be muddled. He didn’t know if he had hurt Du Jiuyuan.
“She should be fine. She used your phone to contact me.” Li Ruyan was stunned for a moment, but then she realized that Ji Jingchen was talking about Du Jiuyuan, and she realized that there were no injuries on Du Jiuyuan’s body.
Li Ruyan took out a hemostat from her briefcase and bandaged Ji Jingchen’s hand.
“Was she afraid of me?” Ji Jingchen asked as he allowed Li Ruyan to fiddle with him.
Li Ruyan recalled how Du Jiuyuan looked when she came in. Du Jiuyuan’s face was pale, and her eyes were blurry. She was obviously scared.
“I’m not sure,” Li Ruyan replied as she wiped the blood around Ji Jingchen’s wound.
