Dr. Ou's Psychotherapy Chapter 30

Out of Control and Sickness


It was nine o'clock at night when Yi Zhize returned from his office to Ou Tingyun's home.

He had to admit that his doctor had a great capacity for learning. Although dinner wasn't exactly delicious, compared to lunch, it had improved dramatically.

Under the expectant gaze of Ou Tingyun, Yi Zhize commented, "Not bad."

"Ze Ze, are you serious? You're not trying to make me happy, are you?"

"Not at all," Yi Zhize teased, "I can see now how you managed to get your PhD."

"Studying for a PhD is easier than learning how to cook," Ou Tingyun squeezed Yi Zhize's palm, "so Ze Ze is better than me."

"Director Ou is flattering, I can't afford that."

"Ze Ze, just now when you weren't here, I purposely went to look up the ingredients of the hallucinogenic drug." Ou Tingyun said with a straight face, "According to my research, this drug is very detrimental to health when left in the human body."

Yi Zhize was alert, "Dr. Ou, what are you trying to say?"

"So, you still need me tonight..."

"Shut up!"

"Okay, I won't say anything," Ou Tingyun smiled, "but let's practise, be obedient."

Yi Zhize gulped as he remembered last night's scene, "Tingyun, we have to make three chapters of covenant." (Angel: Three chapters of covenant is an idiom that generally refers to the establishment of a simple agreement to make people abide by it)

"Say it."

"First, this kind of thing needs to be done in moderation, not excessively."

"Okay."

"Second, no hypnotising me to make me go along with your excessive demands."

"Okay."

"Third, no deliberately baiting me and saying strange things."

"Okay."

Yi Zhize expressed his satisfaction at his obedience.

Before a second had passed, Ou Tingyun said, "Ze Ze, but, I don't think any of your demands are valid."

"I don't feel we're overdoing it, and every moment with Ze Ze is a comfortable one. Secondly, I don't think my demands are excessive, you obviously enjoy it too, don't you? And finally, there are no strange words at all, only loving words of affection, you know?"

Ou Tingyun paused deliberately and whispered in his ear, "When you said those words, I was about to lose it."

Yi Zhize's ears flushed red.

Ou Tingyun said, "I will be very gentle, very gentle. Ze Ze, don't reject me, okay?"

———

So the next morning, Yi Zhize was once again unable to get up on time.

The following day, the third, the fourth, and the fifth, it was the same.

An Rong looked at the marks on his body that he couldn't hide, and there was a teasing look in her eyes that spoke volumes.

Victor said jealously, "Yi, who on earth can make you so happy? Forget about work?"

After that, Yi Zhize hardly came to the law firm in the morning.

Correspondingly, his insomnia was almost cured.

He was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he touched his pillow thanks to the rich and colourful nighttime activities, so how could he be bothered by insomnia?

Later, Ou Tingyun invited him to live with him, saying that it would help him recover completely from his mental anxiety.

Even though he knew how ridiculous this excuse was, he went along with it.

After all, under the care of his family doctor, his mental state and spiritual condition had never been healthier.

In the case of the Ou Rui Real Estate, Yi Zhize won a resounding victory, securing the maximum rights for Ou Tingyun.

In the case of the British doctor, thanks to the clues provided by Yi Zhize, the police succeeded in uncovering a den for the production of illegal hallucinogens and Doctor James was given a fair verdict.

In a short period of time, Yi Zhize became famous in the legal circle, both nationally and internationally, and Ruizheng Law Firm was also made famous by him.

At the firm's celebration dinner, An Rong patted Yi Zhize on the shoulder and said, "Yi Yi, you've really achieved a double harvest in your career and love, I am sincerely happy for you!"

Victor also patted him on the shoulder, "Yi Par! As long as you are willing to come to the UK office, no matter what you request, we need you!"

Yi Zhize smiled modestly and opened his phone, it was a message from Ou Tingyun to him: [I'm at the door.]

So he excused himself and said, "Sorry, someone's coming to pick me up, I'll go first, you guys enjoy yourselves."

An Rong teased, "Someone? It's a family member, right?"

Yi Zhize laughed and hummed softly.

It was a winter's night and there was a scattering of snow.

Yi Zhize came out and caught a glimpse of Ou Tingyun.

The doctor came towards him, removed the scarf and put it around his neck, and naturally took his hand and put it in his own coat pocket: "Congratulations, Mr. Yi."

Yi Zhize interlocked his fingers, "I owe it all to Dr. Ou."

"My family's Ze Ze was already very good."

"But," said Yi Zhize, "you are my salvation."

Ou Tingyun stopped and hung his head to kiss him.

Gentle and delicate and long.

It melted the cold pools and made the ice and snow melt away.

Back at home, Ou Tingyun took him into the study and took out a stack of forms and placed them on the desk, "Ze Ze, you've been doing very well lately, you've basically healed. These forms are the final assessments, let's complete them together, shall we?"

"Mhm."

Yi Zhize sat in his study, quietly filling out the professional psychological assessment forms.

Ou Tingyun asked, "Ze Ze, have you ever heard of psychological experiments?"

"I've heard of it, but I don't understand it." Yi Zhize handed the completed form to Ou Tingyun.

As he browsed through it, Ou Tingyun said, "In a psychological experiment, there is a principle of freedom of withdrawal. In a psychological experiment, the researcher must respect the subject's freedom and allow the subject to quit or withdraw from the experiment at any time he or she wishes."

Yi Zhize playfully said, "So, you mean that I can now withdraw from the experiment?"

"Quite the contrary, in my experimental design, you have no freedom of choice." Ou Tingyun smiled, "Even though the data shows that you have already healed, without my permission, you can never leave."

Yi Zhize reassured him, "Okay, I won't leave."

"Ze Ze, do you love me?"

"En."

"Then let's never separate, okay?"

"Okay."

———

After solving several big cases in a row, Yi Zhize became a star in the circle.

His career was booming and he was getting busier and busier.

In contrast, Ou Tingyun seemed to have a lot of time to spare, spending a lot of time studying his cooking skills.

After receiving Yi Zhize's approval, the doctor became more and more energetic, cooking every day to please him.

Yi Zhize teased him, "Dr. Ou, if this continues, your scalpel-wielding white coat will probably become a five-star chef's white coat.

Ou Tingyun didn't take it personally, but said with a touch of pride, "I'd be happy to change my profession for Ze Ze's sake.

It was Saturday and Ou Tingyun had no work scheduled.

Yi Zhize was working late at the law firm.

Ou Tingyun spent the whole morning making him a love bento and brought it to him with great joy.

When he arrived at the Yuanfan Building, he exited the elevator and entered the lobby of the firm.

Looking through the transparent glass of the office cubicles, he saw the lawyer at once.

He was so dazzling that he seemed to shine with a radiant glow.

He was surrounded by people who were in his way.

He was smiling.

He was smiling at the people beside him.

The flames of jealousy inexplicably began to burn.

The slightest physical contact, if any, was annoying to watch.

Don't go near him.

Don't touch him.

He's mine.

On the surface, he remained affectionate, but on the inside, he began to fantasise.

A fantasy of slaughtering everyone around him with his own hands.

There, in a pool of blood, stood his only love.

His only love, in his heart and eyes, could only be him.

Only him.

Ou Tingyun thought,

he was out of control.

His patient had been cured,

but what was gifted to him,

was a disease that could not be cured.
