Chapter 99 Personality Disorders
Shen Jun's operation went smoothly, and the whole family breathed a sigh of relief. Kong Nanzhu's tense nerves finally relaxed. During this period, she paused the progress of her work and stayed with Shen Jun in the hospital every day, counseling her and helping her reduce her mental burden.
The more she was sincere to Shen Jun, the more guilty he felt. She reflected on her own selfishness. She was willing to tie up Kong Nanzhu's life just to allow her son to fall in love and start a family like a normal person .
As Qin Qi's biological mother, after Qin Qi was diagnosed with congenital character defects, she devoted all her heart to her son. While busy with business, she also had to spend several times more energy than ordinary parents to guide her son's three views.
She has always been worried that Qin Qi would not be able to marry and fall in love like an ordinary person. Although the doctor said that all his indicators have returned to normal, everyone around him can feel that Qin Qi is slow to warm up, even a little cold-blooded. It is hard to believe that he will fall in love with a girl and start a family with her in the future.
Kong Nanzhu was the savior sent by God to their family.
Shen Jun has always believed in this.
Because ever since Qin Qi and Kong Nanzhu first met at a family gathering, Qin Qi showed Kong Nanzhu a different attitude towards others.
Before Qin Qi was four years old, Qin Hehai was the president of the Shenzhen branch. The family of three lived in Shenzhen. The first meal after officially moving back to Beijing was with Kong Nanzhu's family. When Qin Qi saw Kong Nanzhu, he ran over and said to Kong Nanzhu, who was wearing a princess dress, "You are beautiful."
The four adults were laughing so hard, and Kong Nanzhu also showed a sweet smile because of the praise. She took Qin Qi's little hand very kindly and said that she would take him to the hotel's naughty boy to play on the slide.
Qin Qi followed him for the first time.
That was the first time Qin Qi was willing to have physical .
Shen Jun was very surprised and immediately joked, "We have a stubborn temper and never let children touch us. He must have been dazzled by the beautiful girl."
Qin Hehai also laughed, "Why don't we just arrange a marriage between our two families? It would be great if we two brothers could become even closer."
It is said that good people do not live long. Kong Nanzhu became an orphan at the age of fourteen. In fact, it was Shen Jun who first proposed to adopt Kong Nanzhu. Qin Hehai was originally worried that his wife would not be able to accept it, but he did not expect that Shen Jun cared more about it than he did.
It is impossible to say that she had no selfish motives. She felt that having a brother or sister to live with Qin Qi would help Qin Qi's character development. As for the love that later developed between the two of them, it was simply a pleasant surprise for her.
Shen Jun originally hoped that Kong Nanzhu could stay with Qin Qi. She knew that Kong Nanzhu meant a lot to Qin Qi, and she didn't believe that there was any girl in the world who was more suitable for Qin Qi than Kong Nanzhu.
But from Kong Nanzhu's perspective, she understood the grievances Kong Nanzhu had endured in this relationship, as well as the sadness that she had hidden from others. As an adoptive mother and Kong Nanzhu's family member, she also hoped that Kong Nanzhu could truly be happy .
Shen Jun has become much more open-minded. After experiencing a car accident and cancer treatment, her state of mind is very different from before.
Living happily is more important than anything else.
On the second day after the operation, Shen Jun was able to sit up and eat on her own. The pain had tortured this vibrant life to the point of being unrecognizable. She had no feeling of hunger and no desire at all. But in order to recover faster, Shen Jun still forced herself to eat on time. The wound was on the right side of her chest and there was a retention needle in her arm, so it was inconvenient for her to raise her hand. Kong Nanzhu fed her one spoonful at a time.
"Nannan, you and Xiaoqi were secretly married before. Only our family knows about this, so don't tell anyone else. After a while, mom will introduce you to a few talented young men of the right age. This time, we won't look for young people. We have to choose mature ones who can take care of people."
Kong Nanzhu didn't expect Shen Jun to suddenly bring this up, so she refused, "Mom, we just got divorced, there's no rush to fall in love, let's wait two years before we talk about it."
Shen Jun lowered her eyes embarrassedly, "Mom just wants you to know that I no longer hope that you two can remarry. I support you in pursuing your own happiness."
Shen Jun turned her face away, indicating that she couldn't eat anymore. Kong Nanzhu put down the bowl, took a wet towel to wipe her mouth, and helped her half sit and half lie on the bed.
"I was wrong before. I was too selfish. I only thought about how to make Xiao Qi's life smoother. I ended up hurting you."
Kong Nanzhu immediately rejected the question, "No, my feelings towards Qin Qi... You read that right, I like him and I had this thought a long time ago. The reason we broke up is because... our personalities are not compatible."
"He doesn't match your personality, who can he match with?"
Shen Jun complained mercilessly.
"It is mostly my responsibility that he has become what he is today. Ever since he was diagnosed with that disease when he was a child, I have wanted to control everything and been afraid of everything." Shen Jun's eyes fell on the white tile wall of the hospital. She seemed to be looking at the patterns on the tiles, but also seemed to be looking at somewhere far away.
Ever since he first met Qin Qi, Kong Nanzhu discovered that Qin Qi was different from other children of his age and seemed to have his own little world.
Before coming to the Qin family, when they met at parties, Qin Qi was taciturn and didn't communicate much with others. Kong Nanzhu thought that he just didn't want to play with girls, so he was indifferent to her. She just kept a distance and looked at her silently.
Later she discovered that Qin Qi was like this no matter who he was with, always with a stern face and looking thoughtful all day long.
Apart from her parents, everyone else's attitude towards her is pretty good.
Kong Nanzhu tried, "Xiao Qi, it's the weekend today, aren't you going out to play with your friends?"
Qin Qi: “Very boring.”
"Wouldn't you be bored staying at home by yourself?"
Qin Qi looked up from a pile of movie discs. "Before, I was alone, but now, I have you by my side. It's not boring anymore."
Kong Nanzhu's young and tender heart was gently touched. It was hard to describe the feeling. She found that she was very special to Qin Qi.
This feeling of being needed made Kong Nanzhu feel that her existence was meaningful to this family.
Shen Jun also noticed the changes in Qin Qi and was very pleased. He secretly pulled Kong Nanzhu into the room and told her to spend more time chatting with Qin Qi and encourage him to get along with friends of the same age.
"Xiao Qi...is a bit introverted. He doesn't talk much to us. I've always been worried that there's something wrong with him." Shen Jun pointed to his head and explained cryptically, "We took him for a checkup. The doctor said that his frontal lobe is not fully developed and his dopamine secretion is a bit abnormal."
At that time, Kong Nanzhu could not fully understand some of the professional terms that Shen Jun said, but she roughly understood that Qin Qi had character and psychological defects, which were innate.
"The doctor said that he should be encouraged to socialize with his peers, but he just likes to lock himself in his room, so we can't force him..."
Shen Jun held Kong Nanzhu's hand hopefully, "But he likes you very much, and he will take the initiative to care about you. This has never happened before. Nanzhu, help me and spend more time with him, okay."
Kong Nanzhu readily agreed.
