Chapter 529 Every Day is an Ordeal

"I'm worried about you and the child. Have you forgotten the prank that threatened you last time? I'm afraid someone wants to help Shu Yan harm you."

Su Su felt a warmth in her heart and said softly, "You have to be careful too. I always feel that Shu Yan's behavior after being caught was a bit strange. If someone wanted to harm me, they wouldn't only harm me. You must be careful too."

Qin Tianyi said with emotion, "Mrs. Qin is getting more and more amazing. She finally knows how to care about her husband."

"You make it sound like I've never cared about you before." Su Su couldn't help but pout and ignore him.

Qin Tianyi suddenly turned and kissed her cheek. Su Su immediately blushed in fright and exclaimed, "Are you trying to die? Drive carefully!"

"Yes, Mrs. Qin. We're going home to sleep now."

"Annoying."

"Don't get the wrong idea. I'm really sleepy. Unlike you, who's a pig and can sleep anywhere."

"Who's a pig? You're the pig!" She and Qin Tianyi bickered all the way, and she felt much better.

...

The next day, she went to work at the studio with three bodyguards.

She didn't let the bodyguards guard the office door anymore. Instead, she had them rest in the lounge area when they had nothing to do, telling others they were security personnel hired for the studio.

In the morning, during a break from her busy schedule, she went to the pantry to get water and found that Sophie was not in the office either.

Normally, whenever Sophie was at the studio, she would constantly run to her office. It was strange today.

She carried her water cup to the front desk and asked, "Zhang Ting, has Sophie come to work yet?"

"Sister Su Su, she didn't come today." Zhang Ting took out a contract and handed it to Su Su, saying, "She asked me to give this to you last night after work."

Su Su took it and looked at it, saying, "Isn't this the contract with RJ?"

Zhang Ting nodded and said, "Sophie wanted to put this contract in your office when she came back yesterday. I didn't let her in. Could she be angry about this and not come to work?"

"Why didn't you let her into your office?"

"Well, didn't you tell me that no one was allowed into your office when you were away? So, I locked the door when you were not here..."

"Okay, it's fine." Su Su didn't blame Zhang Ting and said, "She won't be angry about this. Something must have happened that she couldn't come. I'll contact her later."

As Su Su was about to return to her office, Zhang Ting seemed to have something to say and called her back, "Sister Su Su, I contacted Shi Shi last night, just to ask if her diarrhea had gotten better..."

"Oh right, did her diarrhea get better after she went to the hospital yesterday? Did she eat something bad?" Su Su remembered this and asked.

Zhang Ting replied, "Yes, the doctor said Shi Shi had food poisoning. Fortunately, it wasn't serious. She got an injection and was prescribed medicine. She should be fine after a day of rest."

"That's good. Tell her to be careful about what she eats in the future, especially not to buy breakfast from unhygienic street vendors..."

"Sister Su Su, Shi Shi said that Sophie bought her breakfast yesterday morning. After she ate the breakfast Sophie kindly brought her, she started to have diarrhea..." Zhang Ting's voice grew quieter as she spoke, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth.

Su Su was slightly stunned and said, "Are you saying Sophie caused Shi Shi's diarrhea?"

Zhang Ting immediately waved her hands and said, "No, no, we were just chatting. It's possible that Sophie chose an unhygienic place to buy breakfast."

"Well, she grew up abroad and hasn't been in Lancheng for long. It's normal for her not to know the breakfast stalls here," Su Su said and turned back to her office.

After closing the door, Su Su held her teacup and thought about Zhang Ting's words, feeling a bit uneasy.

Yesterday morning, Sophie was so eager to accompany her to the RJ signing. At this time, Shi Shi had severe diarrhea. Could Shi Shi's diarrhea be caused by the breakfast Sophie brought?

And Sophie already had Shi Shi's prepared materials in her hand. Were these all coincidences?

If it wasn't a coincidence, then Sophie's psychological problems were already terrifying.

No, she had to make time to ask the psychologist today and send Sophie to a professional hospital for treatment.

In the afternoon, Su Su went to the psychologist's clinic and inquired about Sophie's previous appointments.

Although she accompanied Sophie to the appointments every time, due to patient privacy, the psychologist would generally have her wait outside and treat Sophie alone through conversation.

The psychologist apologized and said to Su Su, "The patient you mentioned, Sophie, is an adult, and you have no guardianship over her. I still cannot disclose the patient's privacy, and I am afraid it will affect her future treatment."

Su Su explained, "I don't want to know what she specifically told you. I just want to ask if her psychological problems are very serious? Could she do something harmful to others, that is, not extreme behavior, but something that completely deviates from her usual personality, secretly harming people in ways that are hard to detect?"

"It's not impossible," the doctor said, looking at her. "Does she have any other relatives in Lancheng?"

"No, I am her best friend. She suffered a severe blow abroad before, so I brought her here to change her environment. So I just want what's best for her and won't interfere with your treatment." Su Su always felt that this psychologist had something to say.

The psychologist was silent for a moment and then said, "Alright, I can say this: every time she talks to me, she doesn't tell the truth. She tries to portray herself as a normal person. I want to help her, but I feel like I have nowhere to start. She is one of the most difficult patients I have ever encountered. She doesn't trust doctors, or rather, she doesn't trust anyone. She thinks she's not sick and has been trying to control her condition herself, but this lack of control can only lead to another extreme."

"Then what should we do?" Su Su asked quickly. "Will she harm others when she is around normal people? Can she be hospitalized for treatment?"

"Based on my judgment from the last few times, she should not be a threat. I think her main problem is lack of self-confidence. She always feels that everyone dislikes her, which makes her depressed and anxious, and she can't control herself." The doctor thought for a moment and said, "As for the harm you mentioned, I haven't seen it yet, or perhaps she hides it very well and doesn't let me see it. Have you discovered any recent harmful behavior from her?"

Su Su said with a pang of anxiety, "It's hard to say, it's just my guess."

"How about this, hospitalization would be more effective for her condition," the doctor said. "I have a friend who runs a psychological treatment center where she can be hospitalized. Let her check in there for continuous treatment for a period of time, and perhaps she can be completely cured."

"That would be great. I don't want her to suffer this mental torment anymore. She used to be a very cheerful and confident girl."

The doctor said understandingly, "I understand. People with this kind of depressive personality disorder are indeed very painful. For them, every day of living is an ordeal. I also hope your friend can be completely cured."
