Chapter 718: Chapter 722 Self-Protection
“Yue Yaer suddenly pushed Chi Yu: “Enough!”
Like a released arrow, Chi Yu rushed over, kicked away several men, and held Chi Qing in his arms. Large teardrops fell on Chi Qing’s hair, his body shook uncontrollably as he held her, “Qingqing, Qingqing, it’s okay, Big Brother’s here, everything’s okay!”
“Help… save me… big brother save me … mom and dad save me… save me… save me…” Perhaps because she hadn’t spoken for so long, Chi Qing’s voice was hoarse and unclear. The sound of it was like music to everyone’s ears.
Chi Zhan also rushed over and took Chi Qing from Chi Yu and into his own arms, laughing and crying at the same time. Tears streamed down his face, “Qingqing, big brother is here. Big Brother scared away all the bad guys, no one will hurt Qingqing anymore, Qingqing is safe…”
Chi Qing looked up at them, her chaotic gaze gradually focusing.
She stared at them for a long time before suddenly bursting into tears: “Big Brother, Second Brother, why did you come so late? They wanted to bully me, I was so scared…”
Chi Qing’s brothers held her tightly saying: “It’s okay, it’s okay now, big brother is here. The bad guys were chased away, and Qingqing is safe…”
Chi Qing hugged her brothers, crying and crying. Her voice gradually subsided and she fainted.
“Dr. Yue!” The two brothers exclaimed in surprise, calling Yue Yaer at the same time.
Yue Yaer, who was standing nearby, checked Chi Qing’s pulse and reassured the brothers: “Don’t worry, she is just exhausted from crying. She will be okay after she sleeps. Take her to the room and I will prepare some calming medicine. Once she wakes up and takes it, she will start to get better.”
Chi Qing was taken to the guest room.
Chi Yu, fearing the shock would affect his parents, didn’t mention the therapy to them. He asked his wife to stay with his parents while only the brothers stayed with Chi Qing.
Chi Qing slept fitfully throughout the night and only woke up the next morning.
The brothers stayed up all night, watching over her by her bedside.
When Chi Qing woke up, the brothers both stood up from their chairs and moved closer to check on her: “Qingqing, how do you feel? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?”
The brothers were equally worried, afraid that their sister would revert to her previously dull self once she woke up.
Chi Qing looked at Chi Yu on the left and Chi Zhan on the right, rubbed her eyes, and asked groggily: “Big brother, Second Brother, what are you doing in my room…?”
She surveyed her surroundings, her gaze gradually turning to panic, her face getting paler by the second, her delicate body trembling: “Big Brother, Second Brother, I…I…”
Chi Zhan suddenly put her in his arms, soothing her back, “It’s okay, Qingqing. It’s all over, Big Brother and Second Brother are here, so are mom and dad, and your big sister-in-law. We all love Qingqing the most, there is nothing for you to be afraid of…”
Chi Qing cried out, hugging him tightly, “Second Brother, thank God you and Big Brother arrived just in time, otherwise I would have been… I would have…”
Chi Yu’s pupils constricted sharply – what did his sister mean?
Yue Yaer, who slept in the small living room connected to the guest room, heard the commotion and got up. She came over just in time to hear Chi Qing’s words.
She walked over to Chi Yu and whispered so that only they could hear: “It seems Qingqing has forgotten about her traumatic experience. This is her self-defense mechanism. At the worst moment of her trauma, her most desperate wish was for someone to save her. The traumatic event was too painful, her memory instinctively avoided it. Self-defense allowed her to substitute last night’s scene for the one when she was traumatized. In her mind, she wasn’t traumatized; you arrived in time and saved her.”
