Chapter 361: 361: Just a Little Mental Hang-up_1
“Hello, my name is Ma Qing. Mr. Ruan hired me to teach you how to take care of puppies. I hope we can work well together.”
Ma Qing extended her hand for a handshake. Jian Yufei, out of courtesy, shook her hand and turned to ask Ruan Tianling, “Why would you want me to raise a dog?”
“Raising a dog will give you something to do every day. Living here wouldn’t be so boring then.”
Jian Yufei’s eyes slightly moved. Did he know something?
Ruan Tianling checked his watch and said, “You two can chat. I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll leave first.”
Aunt Li handed him his coat, and he left with it.
Ma Qing sat next to Jian Yufei, gently pet the little puppy, “Miss Jian, why don’t you name this little puppy? Since it’s so white, how about calling it ‘Xiao Bai’?”
Jian Yufei smiled here and replied, “Let’s call it Lele.”
“Lele, meaning happiness? That’s a great name. Lele, that’s your name now, remember it.”
Jian Yufei scrutinized Ma Qing out of the corner of her eye. She looked young and was dressed in stylish and elegant clothes. She looked more like a white-collar worker seated in an office rather than a dog trainer.
She asked her doubtfully, “Miss Ma, are you really a dog trainer?”
Ma Qing handed her a business card and gave a small smile, “I apologize for misleading you earlier. I’m actually a psychologist.”
Jian Yufei’s expression slightly changed, and her arms tightened instinctively around Lele at the revelation.
Ma Qing placed her business card on the coffee table, picked up her water glass and took a sip, seemingly oblivious to Jian Yufei’s reaction.
Jian Yufei lowered her gaze and asked her lightly, “What exactly did Ruan Tianling tell you?”
Ma Qing set her glass down, inwardly thinking that it’s better if Jian Yufei initiated the conversation.
“Mr. Ruan mentioned that you might be suffering from depression, and that you had fainted once before. Moreover, your mood has been unstable recently, as though you have something on your mind.”
Jian Yufei let out a sigh of relief; her undesirable past hadn’t been disclosed to them.
In her eyes, suffering from depression was a serious matter and she didn’t want to receive strange looks from others.
“Yes, I’m pregnant and a lot has happened recently which has me feeling a bit disoriented.” Jian Yufei opened up to Ma Qing, she wanted to be treated as soon as possible and didn’t shy away from Ma Qing.
“Don’t worry, everyone has their psychological issues. In my opinion, Miss Jian, you’re very normal. I think you might just have some emotional knots to untangle.”
“Emotional knots?” Ruan Tianling had mentioned it, and now Ma Qing did too. Did she really have emotional knots?
“Yes, I guess your emotional knot is the matter you care about the most. Because you can’t find a satisfactory answer or result, you keep it hidden deep in your heart. But when triggered by certain things, it leads to negative thoughts. However, this is just my speculation. Miss Jian, this garden seems pretty nice, would you mind giving me a tour?”
Jian Yufei put down the puppy, stood up, and led her to the backyard.
Lele quickly accepted Jian Yufei as its owner, wagging its tail and following her wherever she went, determined to be her vital companion.
Just as they left for the garden, Yan Yue arrived at the house.
The gatekeeper dared not stop her and she walked straight into the living room. Aunt Li was coming out of the kitchen at that moment and was startled as she saw her.
