Chapter 719: Chapter 723: Friends, Walking Together in Life
Chi Yu’s heart twisted in agony as he listened. He abruptly covered his eyes and whispered, “I’m sorry…”
I’m sorry, sister. I failed to take care of you, I failed to save you on your most desperate day…
Yue Yaer spoke softly, “Now is not the time for self-reproach. You should comfort Qingqing according to her current mindset and don’t tell her the truth. She can’t be agitated for now. I’ll call Ah Zhan over and make sure he doesn’t spill the beans.”
Chi Yu quickly nodded, wiping his face before he walked over to Chi Zhan and Chi Qing. He pulled Chi Zhan away, pushed him towards Yue Yaer, and then embraced Chi Qing, comforting her with gentle words.
Yue Yaer took Chi Zhan aside, explaining Chi Qing’s current situation and cautioning him not to mention that Chi Qing had been gang-raped. They should let Chi Qing believe that they arrived just in time to rescue her.
Chi Zhan nodded repeatedly, swearing he wouldn’t slip up. But as he promised, worry set in. “Dr. Yue, it’s good that Qingqing can forget the most painful episode of her life, but what if she remembers it later? When she does, will she revert to how she was before?”
“Theoretically, as long as she isn’t exposed to the same scenario again, she won’t remember the incident. Her body’s self-protection mechanism has allowed her to escape, so it will be very difficult for her to recall it,” Yue Yaer explained, “Unless she’s exposed to the same scenario again, like last night, or if a professional psychologist prompts her to remember.”
A ruthless glint flashed in Chi Zhan’s eyes, “So you mean, as long as those three bastards who hurt Qingqing disappear from this world, Qingqing will never remember what happened to her again, right?”
Even though killing was illegal, making three scumbags disappear from the world without breaking the law was not a difficult task for the Chi family.
“Not just the people,” Yue Yaer said, “The same scenarios too.”
Chi Zhan’s fists tightened, “There won’t be the same scenarios again! We’ll protect Qingqing. We’ll absolutely, absolutely, absolutely never let her fall into such despair again.”
She thought for a moment and added, “As time goes by, the impact of this incident on her will gradually decrease. In other words, if a lot of time passes, even if she’s subjected to other triggers and remembers this incident, she won’t suffer a mental breakdown time. You must care for her more in the future and encourage her to develop an optimistic and strong character. Even if she remembers this incident in the future, she’ll be able to cope. After all, it’s not her fault that she was gang-raped, and it isn’t some kind of world-ending catastrophe. Think of it as being bitten by a few mad dogs – it’s not a big deal.”
“Okay! Dr. Yue, I’ll do everything you said!” Chi Zhan looked at Yue Yaer and sincerely said, “We’ll need your guidance in the future, Dr. Yue. We can’t thank you enough.”
He had nothing but admiration for Yue Yaer now.
After just two days of treatment by Yue Yaer, both he and his brother were looking significantly better and had been spared from a fate worse than death.
His sister also woke up from her stupor.
With his sister improving, his parents’ mood would also lift, aiding their health.
In essence, Yue Yaer had saved his entire family!
Yue Yaer looked at him and flashed a sweet smile, “Don’t be so formal. You said it yourself, didn’t you? We’re friends, and friends should help each other!”
