Chapter 3: Comforter

"Miss Wenjing, I still have a deep impression of you after we parted a few days ago. I didn't expect that the thread of fate between us would finally intertwine. Or maybe it's because I, as a comforter, have a sharp eye and discovered your difficulties."

"Please rest assured that normal psychological problems will be alleviated here. All our conversations and actions are under the control of the Magic Association, so there is no need to worry about safety issues."

An Yuan pointed to the surveillance camera above his head.

Ye Xinxia saw the surveillance video and immediately felt relieved.

Meeting privately with the mysterious mind mage, the girl would still be nervous after all.

If there is surveillance, there will be no problem.

"That's right, Dr. Yasuhara."

Ye Xinxia half-closed her eyes, looking listless, "I've been having some strange dreams lately, waking up in the middle of the night."

"I can see that you are very tired, young lady. But the dreaming time should be short, right? Otherwise, your beautiful silky hair and angelic face will be affected and become dry and no longer tender."

With such straightforward praise and explanation of the pros and cons, Ye Xinxia could not help but avoid An Yuan's sincere but overly direct gaze, looking slightly embarrassed:
"Can you be a little more normal?"

"This is a professional habit. Since you have given such an order, young lady..."

Ye Xinxia looked over, her eyes following An Yuan's raised hand, brushing across the obvious Adam's apple on the fair skin, and inadvertently wiping the collar of the thin shirt, revealing the equally obvious collarbone.

"Okay, what's your name?"

An Yuan looked over with a smile.

Ye Xinxia quickly lowered her head and looked at the table, "My name is Ye Xinxia."

"Can you tell me the content of your dream?"

"This……"

"Please rest assured, as a professional comfort therapist, I will keep your secret. In fact, many old clients regard me as a tree hole where they can confide their secrets, because what I am best at is listening."

An Yuan added, "This is also to confirm your problem. If you are sick but hide your condition from the doctor, how can you treat it? Miss Xinxia, ​​you don't want to have strange dreams all the time, do you?"

Ye Xinxia, ​​who was of a weak character, was persuaded by An Yuan's emotional and logical persuasion. She pinched the corners of her clothes with both hands, her eyes wandering, bit her pink lips, and said in a soft voice:
"The first dream was about a man coming into my room, standing very close to me, and saying very strange things."

An Yuan's eyes were gentle, "What did you say?"

"This……"

Seeing the girl's face flushed, clutching the corner of her clothes, and looking unable to speak, An Yuan said sympathetically: "It's okay if it's inconvenient to say it."

Ye Xinxia breathed a sigh of relief and looked at An Yuan with gratitude:

"In the second dream, I was cornered by a demon. Someone tried to save me, but was killed by the demon."

Thinking of the tragic death of Mo Fan in the dream, especially the teasing look of the one-eyed demon wolf, Ye Xinxia's lips tightened.

An Yuan sympathized with him and said, "You must have encountered disasters caused by demons, right?"

Ye Xinxia hummed softly.

"This simple nightmare has brought back unbearable memories and things you fear. Perhaps it is a manifestation of your lack of security, Ms. Xinxia. Are you a student?"

"Yes."

"Then your teachers and classmates must be very unqualified. Oh, I see. It's because of your looks that people envy you, and also because you are different from others. Life without friends must be very lonely."

An Yuan lowered his eyes sadly, his voice lowered, and he quietly came behind Ye Xinxia, ​​gently pushed the wheelchair, and whispered softly:
"Ms. Xinxia is such a perfect girl and shouldn't have to go through this. I also came to Hangzhou alone and I understand your loneliness. Are you willing to be my friend? Don't worry, I won't disturb your life too much, and you can always come to me to talk if you have any troubles."

Ye Xinxia's eyes were touched by what she had said. She didn't notice that she didn't reject An Yuan's approach at all. She thought to herself:

'Is this part of the treatment?'

"Good doctor."

"Call me An Yuan."

"An... Yuan."

"Then can I call you Xinxia?"

"Oh, no! We just met."

"Then I'll call you Xia."

An Yuan forcefully changed the subject, "Xia, what about the third dream?"

Ye Xinxia was about to say something but stopped herself. At this moment, An Yuan pushed her to the fish tank beside the wall of the clinic. Looking at the leisurely ornamental fish in the water, she could only say:

"The third dream was that I was... attacked by a friend."

Not getting a response, Ye Xinxia looked up unexpectedly, and met a pair of pure eyes full of compassion and love.

An Yuan bent down behind her, their faces were unusually close, Ye Xinxia opened her eyes wide, before she could hastily distance herself from him, the pure emotion contained in those eyes deeply touched her heart, making her mind go blank and hold her breath. An Yuan did not go any further, after maintaining eye contact for three seconds, he took the initiative to distance himself:

"You have this kind of dream because subconsciously, you don't trust that friend and think he will betray you."

"no!"

Ye Xinxia firmly denied it!
How could Brother Mo Fan betray her?

An Yuan, what nonsense are you talking about!
An Yuan looked at the girl who had finally steeled herself, and smiled helplessly, with pity, "Betrayal does not necessarily mean separation and hurt, many behaviors can be considered as such. For example, he chose to leave when you needed him, or he brought you painful news when you were happy."

“Strangers’ attacks will not hurt you. Only the attitude of the person who truly lives in your heart is the sharpest knife.”

"The language, the behavior, and even the feelings... your subconscious mind thinks he will betray you."

emotion……

Ye Xinxia felt that breathing was so difficult, her lips were tightly clenched, her face turned pale, her hands tightly clenched the corners of her clothes, and she was unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

An Yuan stayed with her quietly until Ye Xinxia relaxed and leaned back in the wheelchair tiredly, then he spoke softly:
"You now need someone who is unimportant and has no reason to betray you to gain a sense of security."

Ye Xinxia looked at An Yuan's gentle gaze, her lips trembling. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted:

"Okay, any other dreams?"

……

"Xia, I already understand your situation. Please relax and I will help you to relieve it."

In the room behind the clinic, An Yuan did not have Meng Lang's help, so Ye Xinxia sat on the more comfortable recliner by herself.

After lighting the incense and turning on the heater, An Yuan put on white leather gloves, smiled slightly, and applied transparent ointment:

"Please relax and let's spend some comfortable time together."

The warm palms massaged her temples, and Ye Xinxia felt the pores all over her body relax.

Those hands were extremely measured, and Ye Xinxia felt extremely relieved, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

An Yuan patiently applied the ointment, raised the corner of his mouth, and cast a spell:

"Youmeng!"

This time, he didn't do it for the sake of eating dreams, but to help Ye Xinxia have a good dream, so he sneaked into the dream and acted as a guiding NPC.

After all, this is a big customer who can stably produce high-quality dreams, and he should be well maintained.

……

afternoon.

"An Yuan, how much is this treatment?"

Ye Xinxia then realized that she had forgotten to ask about the price.

Ever since I entered the clinic, I felt at ease. I gradually became more engaged in the conversation with An Yuan, and it was not until I had enjoyed the service that I realized I didn't know how much I had to pay.

Hope it's not too expensive...

"Friends should be clear about accounts. I have a clear price here, 10,000 yuan for each service. But since this is Xia's first time, I will give you a 50% discount. Next time, you will have to pay the original price."

"Ten thousand!"

Ye Xinxia was surprised. She usually helped out in the hospital, and as a healing mage, she would have to perform several major surgeries to earn so much money.

"Thank you, here's the money. I'm going back to school now."

"Okay, add the contact information."

After seeing off the energetic Ye Xinxia, ​​An Yuan had just returned to the clinic to work. Not long after, the door was ruthlessly pushed open.

A royal sister looked at him seductively and locked the door directly:

"You kept declining the appointment two days ago. You really forget about your old love when you find a new one."

"Sister Chen... this is a legitimate medical clinic."

Chen Yunya covered her chest and whimpered, "Brother An Yuan, my heart hurts~"

An Yuan pointed to the top of his head, "There are surveillance cameras, be careful."

"Ah."

Chen Yunya's fingertips flickered with lightning. "Your lies are only good enough to fool the little girl. I'm a lightning mage. Don't I know whether your surveillance camera is powered on or not?"
