Adding fuel to the fire.
Qin Haiyue felt something was off, and her already irritable mood became even worse.
But what exactly was off?
As the car slowly stopped at the villa’s entrance, she noticed that there was another car parked in front of her house.
The living room door lock was also open, clearly someone was inside.
This was very strange. Yesterday, Qin Jiangmian had said she wouldn’t come again, so who could it be?
Several figures flashed through her mind: her mother, her younger sister, and her father. But no matter how she thought about it, it was unlikely any of them would come specifically to see her.
“Hey, is someone coming to the house today?”
She asked the driver. After spending so much time together, she didn’t even know his last name.
“…Well… haha, the Second Young Miss specifically told me a few days ago that someone would be coming, and asked me to prepare for them.”
The driver also served as a part-time butler, though he had no one under him to manage.
Qin Haiyue frowned in displeasure.
“Who is it? Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Well… you didn’t ask, and… I don’t even know who it is.”
“Hmph, you only tell me when I ask? You could have just said you can’t tell me. I think you don’t want your job anymore!”
“I’m innocent, Miss! The Second Young Miss specifically ordered me not to tell you.”
“Are you still not leaving?”
“…Fine.”
Qin Haiyue looked impatient and got out of the car without looking back.
She turned and glared at the driver, her tone filled with irritation.
With the roar of the car engine, the driver left.
“Ah… well… Miss, see you tomorrow!”
Qin Haiyue took a deep breath, ready to go in and meet the mysterious person sent by her younger sister.
How strange, what does Qin Jiangmian want? Lately, she’s been interfering in her affairs more and more, it’s really annoying.
The aversion in her heart toward this younger sister deepened a little more.
She pushed open the door, and the house seemed to have changed.
The floor seemed to have been wiped, the clutter in the corners cleared away, and a faint fragrance hung in the air.
The heating from the air conditioner kept out the cold outside. Qin Haiyue squinted and saw a person sitting behind the sofa. Blonde hair, a foreigner?
“Hey, who are you!”
Not intending to be polite at all, Qin Haiyue crossed her arms and shouted at the person.
But the person didn’t react much, fiddling with something on the table and leisurely sipping tea.
Qin Haiyue frowned and leaned in to look.
“Hey! I’m talking to you! Are you listening?”
Only then did the person look up.
It was a woman. Her face didn’t look foreign, with brownish-yellow pupils. Was her hair dyed? Or was she mixed race?
She wore rectangular glasses and had a proper smile on her lips.
“I’m listening, Miss.”
For some reason, her casual and composed attitude made Qin Haiyue very annoyed.
“I asked who you are and why you’re in my house! Also, you’re not welcome here. Get out with your tea!”
The woman gently shook her head.
“Miss, please don’t get angry. It’s not good for your health. This tea was entrusted to me by the master, your father. It’s his personal collection, very precious.”
“If auctioned, it could be worth over a hundred thousand yuan. By no means should it be discarded. Since it’s already brewed, why don’t you join me for a taste?”
“Also, Miss, this is my business card. Would you like to see it?”
The woman smiled and handed over a card.
Qin Haiyue’s impression of this person grew worse. She had no intention of taking the card.
“No need. I told you to get lost. Didn’t you hear me?”
“Very well, Miss. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Yu Aiyu. I will be your future psychologist and also serve as a part-time butler.”
“I’m not interested in who you are. Can you leave now?”
“Then allow me to answer you precisely, Miss. I am a psychologist specially sent by the Second Young Miss to serve you. Until your problems are resolved, my duties do not permit me to leave.”
“Ha, don’t use my sister to pressure me…”
Obviously, Qin Haiyue hadn’t absorbed the rest of what she said about duties; she only heard “Second Young Miss.”
“So, you’re not going to leave, are you? What if I call my sister?”
“I have no intention of pressuring you, only stating the facts.”
“She most likely will not agree to your request.”
This psychologist wore a mysterious smile, as if she was completely confident about this matter.
Qin Haiyue ground her teeth in frustration, the nameless anger in her heart having no outlet.
Qin Jiangmian… Qin Jiangmian again…
That meddlesome busybody!
She was truly fed up with Qin Jiangmian.
But of all people, she couldn’t be willful with this younger sister.
Her family already had a lot of complaints about her.
Unlike her own marginalization, her younger sister was the jewel of the family, the one most likely to take over their father’s position in the future.
Her sister’s decisions often represented more than just herself.
She was like the typical good-for-nothing in wealthy families, while her sister was excellent in both conduct and academics, her complete opposite.
Maybe others saw Qin Jiangmian sending someone to her house as a sign of care?
In any case, the hope of getting this person to leave was basically dashed.
She couldn’t drive this person away. She thought, at worst, she could just not come home from now on and find another place to stay.
“You say you’re a psychologist?”
Knowing she couldn’t drive her away, Qin Haiyue restrained herself a little.
She sat on the sofa, picked up a teacup, brought it to her lips, and took a sip, but couldn’t help frowning.
So bitter… And a very astringent taste.
This thing can sell for over a hundred thousand? Is this for human consumption?
“Yes, Miss. These are my professional certificates.”
Yu Aiyu took out several documents from her bag.
Qin Haiyue casually glanced at them. They basically confirmed that this person was indeed a psychologist, and seemed to be a highly reputable one.
“…I’m not sick. Why did she send you to me?”
Qin Haiyue sneered twice. She didn’t think she was sick. She was fine, perfectly fine.
“Heh heh… What, do you think I’m sick?”
“Miss, before diagnosis, almost every person suffering from a mental illness believes they are no different from normal people.”
“I don’t wish for you to be ill, but whether you are ill or not cannot be judged solely from your subjective perspective. It requires my professional knowledge and long-term observation to reach a conclusion.”
“I don’t need it. Can you get out now?”
Qin Haiyue’s face suddenly turned cold, her voice filled with anger.
“Long-term isolation and irritability are common symptoms before the onset of most mental illnesses. Miss, your current state is very dangerous.”
“Dangerous? Ha… heh heh…”
For some reason, Qin Haiyue suddenly remembered what happened today.
She had gone to find Ye Xingmian, but that person actually dared to refuse her, and even had that bastard surnamed Liu block her. And she couldn’t do anything about it.
When had she ever suffered such a setback?
Moreover, she had already planned out what to do today, but before she could start, she was forced to stop, and was watched by a crowd like a monkey. It was ridiculous.
The anger in her heart quickly turned into rage.
She suddenly threw the teacup to the ground, shattering it. The porcelain fragments and the precious tea leaves scattered everywhere.
She shouted out loud:
“Get out!”
Yu Aiyu’s expression turned much more serious.
“Miss, please stay calm. Take a deep breath. Can you do that?”
“I told you to get out! Didn’t you hear? Don’t make me hit you!”
“Miss, your current emotional fluctuation is normal, but you should realize it’s not right. Please adjust as soon as possible. This is not good for your physical and mental health.”
