Could something terrible have happened to the company?

Rong Zheng was filled with anxiety and couldn't eat. She made several phone calls and sent several messages, but Lu Peichuan neither answered nor replied.

It wasn't until 10 p.m. that Lu Peichuan called her back. "Zhengzheng, I'm sorry, something urgent happened at the company's Ancheng branch. I was on the plane and couldn't answer the phone or reply to messages."

"You went to Ancheng?"

"Well, things are a bit tricky; I might need to stay here for a week."

Rong Zheng felt a little disappointed. He had promised to stay with her during her pregnancy, but he only stayed for one day before going on a business trip.

"Zhengzheng, are you unhappy?"

What can I do if I'm unhappy?

He's gone.

Besides, he was doing it for work, so what could she do besides be understanding and considerate?

Rong Zheng sighed inwardly, composed herself, and said, "No, it was an emergency and there was nothing you could do. But you left in such a hurry without any luggage. Is that inconvenient?"

"You can buy anything here, so don't worry about me. Take good care of yourself and the baby, eat and sleep on time. Once I'm done with this, I'll definitely be there for you to wait for the baby to be born."

"it is good."

Rong Zheng had been worried about Lu Peichuan and had no appetite, so she ate very little for dinner. Although she was still not in a good mood, she forced herself to eat some food for the sake of her child by having the nanny heat up the food.

The next day, Rong Zheng received a call from a colleague at the hospital, "Director Rong, could you please do me a favor?"

"you say."

"My online consultation is scheduled for 10 AM to 8 PM, but I'm currently busy and can't make it. Could you please help me?"

Rong Zheng figured she didn't have anything else to do, so she agreed. After hanging up, she noticed her phone battery was low, so she plugged it in to charge. Then she put on her anti-radiation suit, turned on her computer, logged into her account, and started seeing patients.

Not long after, the woman who had previously sought anonymous medical advice returned.

Rong Zheng gets a headache whenever she sees this person. He's stubborn, doesn't listen to advice, has distorted perceptions, and likes to inquire about her marital status, as if he's unhappy with his own life and wishes all couples in the world would get divorced.

"Doctor, he came to keep me company again. He's been here almost all the time lately. I suddenly feel so sorry for his wife. How could she be so stupid, being neglected by her husband like this and not even suspecting anything?"

"Or is it that his wife is already suspicious, but is pretending not to know because she can't bear to give up this life of luxury?"

Sure enough, here comes another mind-blowing statement.

How dare a mistress pity the wife?

Is it glorious to seduce another woman's husband?

Of course, Rong Zheng could only grumble to herself. As a psychologist, she couldn't take sides; she could only correct, heal, and guide.

After thinking for a moment, she typed on the keyboard: "Relying on someone who already has a family for warmth is extremely unstable. You see, although he spends more time with you, legally he is someone else's husband. You will constantly worry that he will abandon you and the children. Is this kind of anxious and insecure life really what you want?"

"He won't abandon me and the children. His wife should be the one who's worried, because he won't be going back anytime soon and will stay with me and the children."

Looking at the reply from the other party, Rong Zheng felt that this person was truly stubborn and incorrigible.

Before she could figure out how to address the situation, the other party sent two more messages.

"Doctor, do you know what his most frequent excuse is when he neglects his wife and leaves me alone? He says he's busy with work. And his wife actually believes him every time! Don't you think his wife is hopelessly stupid?"

"I'm really looking forward to seeing how his wife will react when she finds out the truth. Will she be so angry she'll vomit blood? Just thinking about it makes me excited."

This person's mind is severely distorted.

Rong Zheng felt that verbal guidance was far from enough and planned to suggest that the other party cooperate with some special psychological therapy or drug treatment. However, she had only typed a few words when the other party went offline.

Rong Zheng was speechless for a moment, then deleted the message she had only edited halfway.

This person never asked her how to treat it; it was as if they simply came to her to confide in her. Each time, they would log off after saying what they wanted to say.

Did the other person never intend to seek treatment and only use her as an outlet for their emotions?

Indeed, she is the other woman after all, and she can't talk about this with others. Keeping it inside is painful, so seeking anonymous online consultation with a psychologist is indeed a good way to vent.

However, simply venting won't solve the underlying problem.

Next time I see this patient, I must persuade her to actively cooperate with the treatment. If her psychological problem is delayed any longer, it will become more and more serious.

Seeing that no one was available to see her, Rong Zheng got up to get her phone, which was charging, from the bedside table. Only then did she realize that Mu Yihuai had sent her a message two minutes earlier.

I'm back. Are you free this afternoon? We can discuss academic papers together.

Mu Yihuai and Rong Zheng graduated from the same doctoral supervisor. Mu Yihuai was Rong Zheng's senior. He was good at scientific research and writing papers, but not so good at clinical practice. Rong Zheng was the opposite.

She wanted to be promoted to chief physician, and SIC was a crucial indicator, so she messaged Mu Yihuai a few days ago to ask for his help.

He was away attending an academic conference at that time, but promised to contact her again when he returned to Jiangcheng.

Rong Zheng immediately replied: 【If you're free, I'll come to your hospital to see you at 2 PM this afternoon?】

【it is good. 】

After lunch, Rong Zheng dozed off for a little while, then asked Uncle Chen to accompany her out.

Rong Zheng arrived at Aikon Hospital on time.

This is a private hospital with a good reputation in Jiangcheng. Rong Zheng only knew that Mu Yihuai worked here, but this was the first time she had come here to see him.

She walked into the lobby, supporting her pregnant belly, feeling as if she had entered a high-end hotel. There was a small round table with four single sofas, and bottled water and snacks were placed on the small round table. Such amenities were arranged in a row.

This is probably for receiving patients and their families.

The lobby also has fresh flowers, fruit, drinks...

As she was admiring the view, she saw Mu Yihuai approaching and greeted him with a smile, "Senior Brother Mu."

"Is the environment in our hospital alright?"

Rong Zheng nodded, "That's great."

It didn't feel like a hospital at all; when she first came in, she thought she had gone to the wrong place.

"Come on, I'll take you to my office."

"it is good."

Rong Zheng followed Mu Yihuai toward the elevator, chatting as they walked.

"Are you about to give birth?"

"Yes, my due date is still half a month away, so I'm available anytime. I'll trouble Senior Brother Mu to give me more guidance on my thesis."

"We don't need to be so polite between us. You're about to give birth, and you're still working so hard. You're still the same as when you were in school. No wonder you were a top student in school and are now a key member of your department at work."

Rong Zheng wanted to say something, but she inadvertently saw a familiar figure. However, the person disappeared around the corner in just a few seconds.

Seeing Rong Zheng suddenly stop, Mu Yihuai asked, "Junior Sister Rong, what's wrong?"

Rong Zheng pointed in the direction the person had disappeared, "Where did that person go?"

Mu Yihuai looked over and said, "It's an elevator, but that's the private elevator that leads to the VIP floor."

"VIP?"

"Yes, some wealthy patients, or patients who need privacy protection, such as celebrities and well-known business people, usually stay there."

Rong Zheng nodded. "Senior Brother Mu, wait for me a moment, I'm going to make a phone call."

"it is good."

Rong Zheng took out her phone and dialed Lu Peichuan's number.

She just saw that the person's back view looked like Lu Peichuan.

But wasn't he on a business trip to Ancheng?
