Chapter 208: Kiss Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Zhi’s thin eyelashes quickly trembled. She narrowed her eyes and said, “Miss Lin, it’s not impossible to eliminate personality dissociation. It’s just that Director Jiang’s situation is special.”
Lin Qingqian looked at her and didn’t say anything, quietly listening to her continue.
“Generally speaking, as long as a person with split personalities listens to the doctor’s instructions and receives psychological treatment and takes their medicine on time, they will naturally be able to eliminate the other personality after a long time. Although there’s a possibility of it happening again, the probability is not high.
Director Jiang has only been suppressing it with medicine and his emotions are unstable. Even if he’s cured, it’s very difficult for him to not relapse. At that time, no one can guarantee what his new split personality will be like.” Lin Qingqian held her breath and felt the blood in her body turn cold.
“You mean… he refuses to undergo psychiatric treatment?”
Shen Zhiwei nodded gently. “Although I’m a psychiatrist, I have to respect the patient’s wishes. I can’t forcefully interfere.”
Lin Qingqian’s gaze became even more complicated and obscure. What exactly happened to make him so persistent that he refused to accept psychological treatment and destroy his split personality?
Shen Zhiwei turned to go back. After Lin Qingqian sent her to the door, she turned around and returned to her room.
She pulled the blanket over him and sat down gently by the bed. Her gaze was filled with heartache.
“What else are you hiding from me that you can’t let me know?”
The next day, Jiang Yanshen woke up and felt a familiar headache. He turned his head to look at his arm.
There was an obvious needle mark on his arm under his rolled-up sleeve. His eyes darkened as he realized something.
When he got up and walked out of the room, he saw Lin Qingqian bringing breakfast to the dining table.
Seeing that he had woken up, Lin Qingqian smiled faintly. “You’re awake? Go wash up and eat breakfast.”
Jiang Yanshen couldn’t see anything unusual on her plain face. His throat bobbed a few times, and in the end, he went to the washroom to wash up without saying a word.
When he came out, Lin Qingqian had already changed her clothes and was sitting at the dining table. She placed a boiled egg in front of him. “Eat it.”
Jiang Yanshen’s throat tightened. He stared at her with his deep eyes and his voice rang out, “I’m not him.”
Lin Qingqian blinked. “What does letting you eat eggs have to do with who you
Jiang Yanshen looked at her without saying anything.
Lin Qingqian picked up the egg and knocked it against his head. The eggshell cracked and he frowned in pain, looking at her strangely.
“In the future, you have to eat an egg every day to replenish your nutrition.” Her slender and fair fingers skillfully peeled the egg and placed it on the plate in front of him. She said, “Western food is not nutritious. I’ll make you Chinese food in the future.”
Jiang Yanshen’s gaze moved away from her face and landed on the peeled egg.
His throat moved. “I’d better move back.”
When Lin Qingqian heard this, she didn’t ask for the reason or stop him. “Alright, I’ll make it and send it to you every day.”
“Qianqian.” Jiang Yanshen glanced at her.
Lin Qingqian’s face was calm. “What’s wrong?”
Jiang Yanshen’s thin lips parted slightly. “I don’t want you to see him.”
Lin Qingqian nodded. “I know!”
After a pause, she said, “But if you’re unwilling to undergo psychiatric treatment, he’s destined to be sandwiched between the two of us, right?” Jiang Yan took a deep breath.
“Or are you planning to find a place to hide as soon as he comes out and not see me for half a month?”
Jiang Yanshen pursed his thin lips into a straight line, his face tense as he remained silent.
Lin Qingqian put down the spoon in her hand and looked at him with a gentle gaze. She said softly, “I don’t want to open my eyes one day and see someone with the same face as you but who’s not you. However, I can’t help you and influence your decision.”
Jiang Yanshen took a deep breath and his breathing quickened slightly. He stretched out his long arm and carried her from the stool into his arms, hugging her tightly. His exquisite facial features were buried in her neck. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. It’s just—”
Lin Qingqian’s slender hand wrapped around his neck gently, her fingers touching his soft hair.
There was no emotion in her clear voice. “I’m not angry, and I don’t blame you. If you don’t want to tell me, you naturally have your difficulties. I won’t force you.”
After Imowing his situation, Lin Qingqian had long understood that this man must be bearing some heavy burden that she didn’t know about.
She was already 25 years old, not 17 or 18 years old. When she was in a relationship, she had to know everything and get to the bottom of everything.
Her mature thoughts made her understand and respect Jiang Yanshen’s choice.
Jiang Yanshen didn’t say anything and only hugged her tightly, greedily absorbing the warmth of her body.
Lin Qingqian patted his back. “Alright, eat breakfast.”
Jiang Yanshen looked up at her face. After confirming that she wasn’t angry, his throat moved slightly and his voice was low and hoarse. “Kiss me!”
Lin Qingqian was stunned. She reacted and lowered her head to peck his thin lips swiftly.
“Hurry up and eat.”
Jiang Yanshen’s furrowed brows relaxed. “I’ll send you to the office.”
Lin Qingqian buried her head in her porridge and hummed with a red face.
Jiang Yanshen drove her to the entrance of the company and leaned over to help her unbuckle her seatbelt.
“I’ll pick you up after work.”
Lin Qingqian met his warm gaze and her heart couldn’t help but burn. Her red lips curled into a smile as she said softly, “Okay.”
She pushed the door open and got out of the car. Jiang Yanshen’s dark eyes were fixed on her back until she entered the company before he retracted his gaze reluctantly.
Not far away, two men in black suits walked over and said respectfully,
“Director Jiang.”
Jiang Yanshen sized them up and said coldly, “Protect her well. There’s no need to disturb her.”
The bodyguards nodded and bowed respectfully.
Jiang Yanshen glanced at the entrance of the company again before starting the engine and speeding away.
Lin Qingqian didn’t take the matter to heart and focused on her work. At noon, Suisui ran over eagerly and handed her the small cake in her hand as
Lin Qingqian’s eyes flashed. “If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t do this. ”
Suisui pursed her lips and smiled. “Lu Qinshang’s manager called me. He said that Lu Qinshang is going to film a show tomorrow and wants me to apply his makeup.”
Lin Qingqian: “So?”
“I’ve originally arranged to apply makeup for Li Wenwen tomorrow.” Suisui pressed her palms together. “Can you ask the other colleagues to cover me? At most, I’ll give all the makeup fees from Lu Qinshang to the company. I don’t want a single cent. Please!”
“You’re really loyal to Lu Qinshang and are selfless!”
“Qianqian!” Suisui walked to her side and shook her hand. “Just help me this once!!”
“Go ahead.” Lin Qingqian didn’t want her to shake her arm off and hurriedly agreed. “I’ll make arrangements for Li Wenwen’s matter.” Suisui immediately smiled. “Qianqian, you’re the best! I love you!”
She made a pen wick.
Lin Qingqian glared at her. “Go back to work.”
“Yes!” Having achieved her goal, Suisui immediately slipped away.
As soon as she left, Han Liubai entered. “What happened? Suisui looks very happy! ”
“She’s going to do Lu Qinshang’s makeup tomorrow!” Lin Qingqian smiled and shook her head helplessly. She really couldn’t do anything to this girl who chased after celebrities.
Han Liubai: “Then what about Li Wenwen? I just saw that the other makeup artists’ schedule are also full.”
Lin Qingqian looked at the work chart. Indeed, the schedule for this week was all filled.
“Looks like I’ll have to do it myself.”
Surprise flashed across Han Liubai’s eyes. “You know how to do it too?”
“I took this subject as an elective course in university. It doesn’t hurt to have more skills in our line of work.” Lin Qingqian smiled faintly.
Han Liubai nodded. “Then let’s go together tomorrow. Coincidentally, Sheng Yan is also participating in that event.”
Lin Qingqian nodded happily.
After work at night, Jiang Yanshen came to pick her up on time.
On the way, Lin Qingqian told him that she was going out for an event tomorrow and that he didn’t have to pick her up.
Jiang Yanshen didn’t say anything and agreed.
The next day, Han Liubai drove over to pick up Lin Qingqian and they went to the event location together.
This was a public service campaign to help autistic people.
Lin Qingqian chose a pair of dark blue pants for Li Wenwen, paired with a white cartoon T-shirt and a black baseball cap. Her makeup was very light, and it mainly protected her from the sun.
The thing that female celebrities were most afraid of when they participated in outdoor activities was being exposed to the sun. Lin Qingqian could be considered to have protected her completely.
Li Wenwen was very satisfied and was not picky at all. On the other hand, Sheng Yan was very dissatisfied with Han Liubai’s style and refused to get out of the makeup van.
The reason was that Sheng Yan wanted to look handsome, but he didn’t want his hairstyle to be affected by the hat.
Han Liubai was also helpless.
Lin Qingqian went to Sheng Yan’s van to communicate with him. Sheng Yan was also very resistant and chased her out of the van without saying a word.
The organizer of the event was also in a difficult position. The event was about to begin, and if Sheng Yan didn’t come out, wouldn’t it delay the entire process?
The person-in-charge came to look for Lin Qingqian again and asked her to think of a solution.
Lin Qingqian’s tone was calm. “Forgive me for being useless.”
Others might not know, but she could tell that Sheng Yan didn’t want to participate in this activity at all. He didn’t get any remuneration for this and yet had to stay under the sun for most of the day. Naturally, he found an excuse not to get out of the van.
Even if he decided to reject this event, the organizer and the management company would only make an announcement that he wasn’t feeling well. Not only would he not be scolded, but his fans would even feel heartache for him.
When the person-in-charge heard that she was helpless, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
After Lin Qingqian finished her work and was about to leave with Han Liubai, she suddenly saw a familiar face from the corner of her eye and stopped in her tracks.
Han Liubai followed her gaze and looked at the crowd, but he didn’t see anything unusual. “What’s wrong?”
Lin Qingqian didn’t answer. She turned around and looked for the person in charge. “If Sheng Yan won’t come out, can we look for other male celebrities?”
The person-in-charge was stunned. “The event is about to begin. Where can you find a male celebrity to replace him?”
Lin Qingqian pointed at the large man in the crowd. “Isn’t there one right here?”
The person-in-charge took a closer look and shook his head. “No! Ren Guangxi’s popularity has dropped after his relationship was exposed. Letting him go on stage won’t bring us any benefit at all.”
Sheng Yan and Li Wenwen were invited to this charity event because of their recent popularity. They wanted to borrow their fame to attract more attention to the autistic children.
Lin Qingqian’s expression was calm as she said unhurriedly, “What if I’m willing to donate 8 million?”
The person-in-charge was immediately dumbfounded. “What?” Even Han Liubai looked at her in confusion.
“I’ll donate 8 million yuan to these children, and you’ll let Ren Guangxi participate in this event.” Lin Qingqian looked at the bare-faced Ren Guangxi in the distance, her red lips curving. “He only admitted to a relationship. It’s not against the law.. He has the heart to do charity, so why can’t you give him a chance?”
