Yu Wanxi couldn’t help but interject from the side, "Jiaojiao was fine! It was only because you all refused to leave that she lost her temper! She is always well-behaved at home!"
Cao Qi furrowed his brows and said, "Just because someone seems normal most of the time doesn’t mean they don’t have mental issues."
"Still, the patient’s emotions should be considered," Zhou Yan, who was usually gentle, said with a discontent tone, "Although I’m not familiar with psychology, I am aware that the last thing therapies should do is overly aggravate the patient’s emotions..."
Qin Nanyi hadn’t expected things to turn out this way, and she said anxiously, "I think her emotions are no longer a major issue now. Why don’t we let Mr. Cao carefully conduct a mental examination? Mr. Cao is the most outstanding Psychic Type Superpower User in the ability team, and he has delved into psychology and psychiatry before..."
"Enough!!!" Han Yi suddenly shouted fiercely. An invisible force instantly blasted Qin Nanyi and Cao Qi out the door! Both their heads were tightly gripped by a force, their feet hanging in the air as they were pinned against the hospital corridor wall!
"Qin Nanyi, who gave you the audacity?!" Han Yi, like a demon crawled out of hell, emitted a terrifyingly cold aura.
Qin Nanyi and Cao Qi were pinned against the wall, unable to move. The surrounding medical staff fell utterly silent.
"In consideration of Aunt Duan, this time, I won’t touch you," Han Yi said coldly as he stared at her, his deep voice oozing with a thick sense of danger, "Remember—there won’t be a next time!"
"Ugh..." Qin Nanyi’s face was so suppressed by Han Yi’s spiritual power that she couldn’t breathe, tears welling up as she felt an immense sense of injustice and sorrow!
How could he treat her like this?!... He actually struck her!... Didn’t he understand her feelings at all?! No! He clearly knew! He clearly knew that she loved him, why did he treat her this way... Why?!!...
Han Yi withdrew his spiritual power, turned his back on the two people collapsed outside the door, and said, "Pack up, we’re going back."
Lu Changyuan’s heart relaxed, realizing Han Yi hadn’t completely lost his senses, and promptly agreed, "It’s more convenient to take care of things at home, anyway. Besides, we have all the medical equipment we need there, and Brother Zhou and Sister Yu can take good care of Jiaojiao."
Outside, Cao Qi scoffed disdainfully, slowly rose from the ground, and said acrimoniously, "You’ll regret this!"
Han Yi’s expression turned grim, his hands clenched into fists. "Qin Nanyi, take your dog and get lost!"
Tears suddenly streamed down Qin Nanyi’s face, her lips tightly bitten, her expression a mix of despair and fury as she turned and walked away.
Cao Qi patted his trousers and followed Qin Nanyi, leaving angrily behind her.
Once both of them had left, Han Yi sat down, utterly dejected, eyed Han Jiaojiao lying on the bed with a vacant expression, and felt a tremendous sense of defeat rising from within.
Why... Why couldn’t he protect her... Why did he let her become like this...
As if seeing through his thoughts, Lu Changyuan said indifferently, "You keep trying to appease the Qin Family. You’ve bowed down to them, and so your sister and your brother have had to bow down as well. Today we couldn’t even protect a hospital room; tomorrow, will our own home be just as powerless to them? Heh..."
Yu Wanxi, terrified, glanced at Han Yi and then at Lu Changyuan, unable to hold back, "Changyuan... let’s talk about this back home..." She was genuinely worried that Han Yi would explode in anger again. Just witnessing Qin Nanyi and Cao Qi being abruptly flung out had already given her a huge fright...
Lu Changyuan, however, smiled at her and said, "Sister Yu, what you said earlier was good."
"Ah?"
"It was Jiaojiao’s seeing Qin Nanyi that triggered her temper, yet Qin Nanyi stubbornly refused to leave. I think she isn’t truly interested in receiving treatment—she would rather see Jiaojiao’s condition worsen!"
Zhou Yan and Yu Wanxi looked blankly at Lu Changyuan.
Lu Changyuan looked at Han Yi with a mocking gaze, unsparingly saying, "Can’t you see through the heart of the Qin Family’s daughter? Now everyone is talking about how the third young master of the Han Family is about to become the favored son-in-law of the Qin Family. Haven’t you heard? Heh... Professor Duan has been discharged, and now Jiaojiao has been admitted. In the future, you’ll have even more reason to run to the hospital, so it’s good to go home! No more coming to this wretched place to see faces or listen to those rumors. I was actually worried that Jiaojiao would hear them and go mad again."
Han Yi looked at Yu Wanxi, "Is there such a rumor?"
Yu Wanxi didn’t dare meet Han Yi’s eyes and awkwardly moved closer to Zhou Yan. She replied with difficulty, "It’s just inside the hospital... some nurses are talking, probably because they often see you visiting Miss Qin..."
"..." Han Yi opened his mouth, wanting to explain that he was there to see Professor Duan, but then he just smiled bitterly and closed his mouth. Each time he went to see Aunt Duan, Qin Nanyi was there in her ward. To outsiders, it probably made no difference who he was actually visiting...
After all, both were women of the Qin Family.
Lu Changyuan sighed and asked, "Jiaojiao is like this now, what do you plan to do?"
Han Yi looked at Han Jiaojiao and raised a hand to gently wipe the tears from her face.
Han Jiaojiao still appeared dazed and unresponsive.
"Let’s go home first, and you go find Zhan Rong," Han Yi pressed down the fury in his heart, "Have him find me the best Mental Induction Superpower User!"
Lu Changyuan fell silent, and after a long while, he added, "If it really comes to it, we can use the Crystal Core."
Cao Qi was capable of performing Mental Therapy, which was simply because his ability was highly qualified in that area. If they couldn’t find the best, they could settle for someone with ordinary qualifications and use the Crystal Core to boost the numbers.
After a moment of silence, Han Yi nodded slightly, "You go find someone. When we get back... I’ll try first, at least to ensure that her condition doesn’t continue to worsen."
Mental Therapy is a branch of Mental Induction that grows in sophistication, using induction and hypnosis to uncover the deep secrets of a patient’s heart, thereby helping the patient to resolve psychological knots and alleviate emotional stress.
Han Yi was a psychic all-rounder, but it was precisely because of his versatility that he couldn’t excel in everything.
In the initial period, he had devoted his main focus to Mental Search, as they needed to avoid danger and reach the base safely. Later, due to various situations, Han Yi focused on the growth of his spiritual power for attacks because he needed enough strength to protect his sister! Subsequently, his spiritual power materialized, extending into a Mental Shield...
It was because he needed to grow in so many branches that he couldn’t take care of them all. As for the Mental Induction branch, he had only grown to the stage where he could communicate basically. But anything deeper, he couldn’t manage...
He needed time to grow his abilities. But his sister’s condition was urgent.
Han Jiaojiao sat quietly on the bed. After Qin Nanyi and Cao Qi left, her condition had improved a lot, at least she no longer cried.
Han Yi personally carried her downstairs and placed her in the car.
Han Jiaojiao sat blankly in the car, her eyes emptily staring ahead, her mouth softly uttering a few words.
Han Yi’s heart trembled, and he asked her cautiously, "Jiaojiao, what did you say?"
"...Hong Yun...,"
Unable to bear the heartache, Han Yi gently stroked her face, Han Jiaojiao murmured as if without sensation, "Hong Yun... where are you... weren’t we supposed to save me... Hong Yun... where are you..."
Hearing what Han Jiaojiao said, Yu Wanxi looked helplessly at Han Yi, "Could something be wrong with Jiaojiao?... What... what’s wrong with her..."
Han Yi embraced Han Jiaojiao completely, continuously patting her back gently, his icy face colder than frost by three degrees!
