Chapter 256: Chapter 256

Another nurse nodded along, "Mr. Shen held her back, gently coaxed her, and the patient quieted down."

"An unfamiliar environment makes her feel very insecure, let Mr. Shen hold her ." Rong Kuo said.

Only then did Lin Bufan realize he had wronged the young nurse, so he quickly apologized.

"You all go out first." Shen Jue told the two nurses, then gave Lin Bufan a look, and together they left the ward.

"President Rong, sorry to take a few minutes of your time." Shen Jue said, "I want to know about the illness you mentioned, you seem to know a lot about it."

Before today, Shen Jue had never heard of it.

Rong Kuo nodded, the story was long and not something that could be explained in a few words, so Rong Kuo simply took a chair and sat next to Shen Jue.

He began, "When my sister was five, she was locked in a storage room for two days and a night. The storage room had no light, not even enough air. Two days and a night without a drop of water. When she was found, she was just like your fiancée — even more severe. Had she been discovered any later, she would have died."

"After I carried her out of the storage room, she saw many doctors. During that time, I couldn’t leave her side for even a second, as soon as I left, she’d tremble with fear. The doctors said she was too young, advised against medication, and told me to stay with her, talk to her constantly, and suggested I take her to places she grew up in, places familiar to her that would give her a sense of security."

"After my parents passed away, the family house was sold, just happened to be bought by President Zhao. I took my sister back there. Fortunately, President Zhao and Mrs. Zhao were kind people; they took us in. After learning about my sister’s situation, they even let us stay in her original room."

"The night we moved in, Qingqing woke up, but she was still very scared, couldn’t leave my side, very quiet, didn’t speak."

"Zhao Junxi was still young and naïve at that time, kept teasing her to talk. She never responded to him. Zhao Junxi called her a little mute, even bullied her on purpose, but Qingqing acted like she couldn’t see him. As long as I was by her side, she’d quietly read her books, play with toys."

"But she often turned to look for me, even when I went to the bathroom, she’d quickly put down her book or toy, and follow me closely. While I was in the bathroom, she’d stand outside silently, pressed against the door, somewhat anxious."

"I kept talking to her from inside the bathroom, comforting her so she could calm down, sitting by the bathroom door reading until I came out. If I didn’t talk to her for a minute or two, she’d knock on the door, then I’d speak, and she’d quiet down again."

"She felt so insecure, even while sleeping. I stayed with her, held her. In the middle of the night, she’d wake up abruptly, one hand tightly clenching mine."

Rong Kuo looked towards Shen Jue, "Just like your fiancée is holding you now, at that time my sister would also hold my hand tightly, even in her sleep, she wouldn’t let go."

"What happened later? How long did it take for her to get better?" Lin Bufan’s report didn’t mention that Jixing Xiaorong couldn’t speak, nor any differences from ordinary people, so Shen Jue knew that Jixing Xiaorong eventually recovered.

"After staying with the Zhao Family for about a week, my sister finally started to talk, probably because Zhao Junxi annoyed her so much. She argued with Zhao Junxi in the backyard. When I heard her cursing at Zhao Junxi, I was shocked. She directly made him cry."
