Chapter 1255: No Coincidences, No Stories

The psychologist he had been in contact with and consulting with over the years was a middle-aged woman with a very good temper and a round face that made people feel good. She also had a lot of research on social phobia and had cured a man with social phobia. Li Chen invited her to come and talk with the fifth brother.

He had some special reasons. No one ever came to his house. Except for Yun An, no outsiders had come over the years. When Yun An lived here, he never brought any friends home.

The fifth brother's condition had worsened recently. It was not okay to invite him outside, and it was even worse to go to Gu's Manor. If he was in the psychologist's office, it would be inappropriate and seem insincere. Li Chen invited him to his home and cooked for him personally.

The fifth brother sat on the sofa and communicated with the psychologist very nervously. The two kept a very safe distance. He hugged the pillow like a little pitiful child, and occasionally looked at Li Chen in the kitchen.

He was so nervous that his palms were sweaty.

The psychologist gave him a few test questions and asked him some common questions. Social phobia is a psychological problem and has its causes. The fifth brother said, "I was very shy when I was a child. I have always been timid and don't like to communicate with people."

The atmosphere in the ghost town has always been relatively good. There are several older brothers above him, all of whom are capable, so there is nothing to worry about as a younger brother. His problem was actually caused by the school bully incident.

When they were young, the second master was too busy.

He didn't study very well and went to the art college. The art college and the sports school were connected. There was a group of bullies in the sports school who often blocked them for money, abused them, and bullied them on campus.

The fifth brother was blocked by them for a while. He was pampered and looked like a young master from a rich family. He became the target of that group of people. The fifth brother was spoiled and grew up. His luck was not very good. That period happened to be the busiest time in the ghost town, and he was always retaliated and targeted by his enemies. School bullying became a trivial matter in the ghost town.

The second master had many sons, so it was inevitable that he was a little careless. For a long time, no one noticed his problem. Until the eldest brother found out, the fifth brother had been bullied in school for nearly two years.

Gradually, he didn't like to talk or communicate with others. He liked reading and painting. Except for a few brothers, he had almost no friends. This state lasted until adulthood.

The psychologist simply made a record and asked casually, "When did the social phobia problem appear?"

The fifth brother hugged the pillow tightly, not wanting to say much. Li Chen leaned against the white door and window of the kitchen and looked at him gently. The light fell into his eyes, bright and dazzling, bringing him a sense of peace of mind.

The fifth brother took a deep breath, "After my eldest brother died."

"Did something happen?"

The fifth brother refused to say anything anymore. Li Chen's fingertips trembled slightly, clenched his fists, turned back to serve the dishes, and greeted softly, "Come and eat, and talk while eating."

His words were like amnesty to the fifth brother. The psychologist also knew not to push too hard, so the atmosphere became relaxed.

The fifth brother and Li Chen have become familiar with each other recently. After exchanging business cards and WeChat, the fifth brother occasionally chats with Li Chen. As they chat, they become familiar with each other. He is defensive, but he is not a fool. He knows that Li Chen is a good person and cares about him. Today, Li Chen said that he found a psychologist and asked him if he would like to come and talk. In fact, he has seen many psychologists and none of them worked, but he is still willing to come.

A few people were about to eat, and suddenly there was a key sound at the door. Li Chen was startled. Yun An had opened the door and staggered in. Yun An, who came back in a cold wind, was faced with the fragrance in the room and his face turned pale for a while.

Today's update is over. I have something to do in the evening and I have to go out in a hurry. I will take a leave. If I come back early, I will update. If I come back late, I will not update. At the end of the month, I will ask for a wave of monthly tickets for the young master.
